Unfortunately, there were times when every single of one’s fears would eventually become reality.
Just when everyone was brimming with anxiety, Lord Luoying turned his head around. His brilliant eyes were like shining pearls, imitating their brilliance and soft waves. Gently, he said, "Were they bullying you?"
A wave of dizziness struck everyone.
They proceeded to look towards Su Luo all at once!
Please, Miss, we beg of you. Don’t tell the truth!
The very people who had chased Su Luo earlier were now kneeling in front of her with bitter and teary faces, weakly begging her in silence.
Su Luo tilted her head and touched her chin, giving an appearance of her dwelling in thought.
Everyone held eager and pleading gazes at Su Luo…
Then Su Luo asked, "Does chasing to kill someone count as bullying?”
Lord Luoying’s once indifferent stare suddenly turned into one akin of a peerless sword that had been drawn out of its sheath. He looked at them as though they were ants!
The gaze was so cold that it seemed like the surrounding air had condensed into frost.
The silent anger in his eyes made these people tremble with fright, turning their faces pale, and left the weak teetering on the brink of unconsciousness.
“Chase to kill?" Lord Luoying played with the ring on his thumb. A dense, dark shade hung over his face, as though dark clouds were brewing within. Nevertheless, an unwavering smile was present as he spoke.
Such slyness left the Thorn Captain wanting to cry!
Having followed Lord Luoying for a few days, he knew that the brighter the nobleman smiled, the more vicious his follow up actions would be. He once saw for himself that a companion had gone behind Lord Luoying’s back to tell things to the Queen. As punishment, Lord Luoying peeled and cut off that person's skin and flesh piece by piece in front of the Queen.
Blood covered the whole interior of the Queen’s palace. Yet throughout it all, the Queen held a glass of amber wine in her hand and a smile at the corner of her mouth, looking at Lord Luoying tenderly.
Thinking of this, the fear in Thorn Captain's heart infinitely magnified. He didn't dare to report the unusual relationship between Lord Luoying and Su Luo to the Queen.
"You all deserve to die." Lord Luoying grinned.
"Yes, yes, we deserve to die, but Lord Luoying, please, give us a way to survive." Who wanted to die if they could live? After all, you would lose everything if you die.
“Life or death sentence," Lord Luoying rolled his eyes. With his slender white fingers, he raised Su Luo's jaw slightly, "My dear, what do you say?"
Lord Luoying had handed over the decision to Su Luo.
After hearing this, the Thorn team fell into despair!
Having treated Su Luo so poorly before, how could she spare our lives?
We could resist, but in front of Lord Luoying? That would only lead to a quicker death with no chance to escape.
Therefore, they couldn't even think of resisting even after seeing the appearance of the formidable man.
At this moment, all eyes were focused on Su Luo.
Who would have thought that Su Luo, who was previously in a state of distress of a trapped beast, would turn the situation around so quickly? With a single word and a blink of an eye, she could decide their fate.
Su Luo played with her hair spiritedly, a gentle smile akin to that of a lively summer flower blooming on her face…
â??â??
"Life or death sentence…" Each word Su Luo said was like a heavy blow hitting the Captain and the others. Each word she slowly pronounced magnified their torment.
