304 Isll Let One Live (1/2)

Lu Nian grimaced.

He was considering whether he should wait to give the order until Lu Zhenghe made his way to their side. However, he ended up giving out the order from impatience.

In his eyes, they were only a bunch of students who had yet to experience a real hand-to-hand battle in a war. Normally, they would not be able to react after experiencing a great shock.

To his surprise, the kid with the name Mo Fan was able to react so quickly. He was smart enough to use Lu Zhenghe as a hostage.

On the other hand, Lu Zhenghe was a complete idiot. Everything would have been fine if he had made his way to their side right at the beginning.

”Bro...brother, save me!” Lu Zhenghe cried out.

Lu Nian was decisive at killing without showing any mercy. He could tell that Mo Fan was the same as him, too. The Rose Flame was on the verge of lunging at Lu Zhenghe, and Lu Nian was confident that Mo Fan would kill him instantly once he made the decision.

”Interesting.” Lu Nian took a sip from the pipe. He waved his hand to signal his group to cease fire.

Lu Nian could not allow his brother to die here. He had spent years in the army, thus he never had the time to set up a family for himself. Lu Zhenghe was a lot younger than him. He was basically the last member of their family. Lu Nian knew he would be on trial very soon. He could not care less about his own life, but Lu Zhenghe should not die here.

At the same time, he could not show that he was actually concerned about his brother's life.

As a matter of fact, if he were left with no choice, he would still sacrifice his brother's life, as he was trying to achieve something magnificent. He would be the one who changed the world if the plan succeeded.

Any sacrifice he made would be so worth it in the end!

”Who do you think you are, listen up. I, Liao Mingxuan, am the son of Liao Feng from the Magic Association. If you dare kill me today, I'll make sure your entire family dies with me too!” Liao Mingxuan burst into a hysterical scream.

”Oh?” Lu Nian raised his eyebrows. His eyes suddenly emitted a brown flicker.

Liao Mingxuan who was yelling and screaming suddenly fell silent.

He could not make any noise. His body had become stiff. He could not even move any of his fingers.

His body was covered in a layer of grey-white substance. It started with his toes, and eventually spread across his entire body.

The substance spread even faster, like cement being dried in the sun within a short period. The only problem was, the substance was spreading on Liao Mingxuan's body, which meant that any part of his body that was covered in the grey-white substance would be turned instantly into stone!

Liao Mingxuan tried to break free, but he was thoroughly turned into a statue in just a few seconds!

”Someone like him is even worse if left alive.” Lu Nian took another sip from his pipe. He was acting indifferently, as if he were just getting rid of a piece of paper.

The anesthetic tobacco entered his lungs, giving a slight relief to the pain from his back. It helped clear his mind too.

He glanced at Mo Fan who was still holding his brother as a hostage. He looked like a rusty blade stained with blood, highly unpredictable, but extremely dangerous.

”Tell me, what do you want.” Lu Nian said in a calm tone.

”Maybe we should ask you what you want instead. We don't even know you. Why are you trying to kill us?” Mu Nujiao flushed with anger.

Her body trembled as she spoke. It was obvious that she was scared, but she forced herself to calm down. It was eerie that their enemy could kill without any sign, which made him extremely difficult to deal with. Luckily, Mo Fan was able to seize their lifeline in time by controlling the traitor Lu Zhenghe.

”You must be Mu Zhanxing's granddaughter. You're quite brave...If I told you that your grandfather agreed with our plan, what would you feel?” Lu Nian burst into monstrous laughter.

Lu Nian was not in a rush. After all, his people had his target surrounded.
