317 Constellation, Advanced Magic! (1/2)

Lu Nian stood on the back of the Heavenly Eagle and stared at the stubbled man driving the Wind Wings.

Zhan Kong?

Isn't he guy in charge of the army in the south? Why would he come all the way to Dongting Lake to meddle with his business?

The entire operation had been carried out behind the scenes. There was no way the military would have noticed it. Could it be that someone had alerted them? Could it be the students who had escaped?

Impossible, even if they had some sort of a communication device, the military would not be able to respond so quickly. It was too much of a coincidence if Zhan Kong just happened to be nearby, too.

Lu Nian grinned, revealing his yellow teeth. He waved his pipe calmly before speaking with a challenging gaze, ”A useless commander like you, who failed to protect Bo City, dares to challenge me? Zhan Kong, I believe you've come alone...You knew that the kid had Double Innate Elements all along, but you have been keeping it to yourself. Does that mean you're planning something on your own, too?”

”Bullshit. Do you think everyone is as reckless as you? Blood Sarira my ass, with the kid's potential, he could easily rise up as a hero one day without relying on that filthy piece of crap. I'd feel greatly ashamed if I were you, to use such inhumane methods on students. If your father knew you would turn out to be such a piece of crap, he would prefer to shoot you on the wall and let you dry in the wind!” Zhan Kong did not care how rough it sounded when he was cursing people.

He was extremely furious.

Zhan Kong assumed that Lu Nian would only be trying to capture Mo Fan alive.

To his surprise, Lu Nian had totally lost his mind. He somehow decided to kill all the students, just to silence them.

They were the elite students from the Imperial College and the Pearl Institute, with a great future ahead of them. However, they had died horrible deaths here just because of Lu Nian's wild ambition.

How many years had it been since the military had a failure like him!?

”Zhan Kong, do you really think you can defeat me?” Lu Nian smiled. It slowly turned into a savage grin.

Since his actions had been exposed, there was no longer a need to be mindful of keeping it all a secret.

There was no need to care too much. A high achiever should never be bound to the restrictions around him. It was better now that he was no longer tied to his rank. There were only a few Commanders in the army that could match his strength, and this Lu Nian was definitely on the list.

It was time for the massacre to begin!

Anyone who was slightly related to this incident would die!

”Feed them to that thing.” Lu Nian glanced at the giant beast who had just woken up on top of the nest with a cruel grin.

”Commander, I believe… that's a Razortail Drake!” the soldier driving the Heavenly Eagle said with a trembling voice.

Lu Nian was referring to the dominator of the desolated city, currently sitting at the top of the Giant Lizards' nest: the Razortail Drake!

Feeding the four students to the Razortail Drake?

Wasn't that a little bit too far?

If he were to fly toward it, the Razortail Drake would surely eat both him and the Heavenly Eagle too!

”Are you disobeying my order?” Lu Nian glared at the soldier.

”Ne...negative.” The soldier saluted and directed the Heavenly Eagle to fly toward the nest.

...

In the net, Bai Tingting's face was as pale as a piece of paper.

Zhao Manting and Mu Nujiao might not know the beast, but she had seen it herself.

The Heavenly Eagle was flying directly at the beast. Despite the distance between them, Bai Tingting was already soaked with the cold sweat of fear.
