Chapter 890: 891
Guo Chuyun still remembered the care and affection his elder brother, Guo Chuyuan, had shown him when he was younger.
But now, everything had changed.
He didn’t know when, but the way his brother looked at him had also changed.
Once, Guo Chuyun had a kind of illusion in his heart. He vaguely felt that his brother seemed to see him as prey or perhaps livestock that could be slaughtered at will.
Although he was reluctant to accept this idea, when he saw with his own eyes one day that his brother had killed his second sister, the feeling became even stronger.
To be honest, Guo Chuyun really didn’t want to return to that cold home. Now, apart from his father who had suffered a stroke, he had no other relatives left.
Sometimes, Guo Chuyun wondered if his mother might also have been killed by his brother.
This thought was truly terrifying. Whenever the night was deep and quiet, and such thoughts flashed through his mind, he would feel a chill.
Guo Chuyun didn’t know when his brother might strike against him.
And now, if he chose to refuse, perhaps Lu Kejin would simply kill him and return to report.
His mind raced a thousand miles, and standing in front of him, Lu Kejin spoke indifferently, "Second Young Master, I won’t interfere with whatever issues you have with the eldest young master. What eventually happens to you is not for me to decide. Please don’t make it difficult for me, just come back with me!"
"What if, what if I say no!" Guo Chuyun felt his fingernails digging deeply into his flesh.
Perhaps, his flesh had already started to bleed at this moment.
However, Guo Chuyun felt no pain. He looked calmly at Lu Kejin, wanting to know where his bottom line was.
"If the Second Young Master is unwilling to come back with me, the eldest young master has actually already instructed me just to bring back the Second Young Master’s body," Lu Kejin said without even blinking an eye.
He even hoped that Guo Chuyun would choose to refuse.
In that case, he could directly act and kill Guo Chuyun in one fell swoop.
It would be more convenient to bring back a corpse than to escort a living person.
Although carrying a corpse felt very unpleasant, these tasks didn’t necessarily require Lu Kejin’s personal effort.
He just needed to oversee from a distance. The issue of guarding the corpse naturally had people to handle it.
"It seems my elder brother really doesn’t want me to live. Alright, I’ll go back. However, I hope Elder Lu can let Little Demon leave, as she is innocent after all," Guo Chuyun said with a bitter smile. Now that he thought about it, leaving the family wasn’t really the best solution.
His strength was not as good as others, nor did he have the talent for training like his elder brother did.
Thus, since his elder brother didn’t trust him, then let him handle everything.
With a melancholic sigh in his heart, Guo Chuyun then turned and tenderly looked at Little Demon beside him.
"Second Young Master, I won’t leave you. I will go back with you!" Little Demon raised her head to meet his gaze, her eyes filled with resolute determination.
"Why bother, Little Demon? I’ve told you not to call me Young Master anymore. I like the expression on your face when you say my name," Guo Chuyun stretched out his hand, gently caressing Little Demon’s face, his eyes filled with doting affection.
Sadly, he couldn’t even protect those close to him.
Guo Chuyun sighed deeply in his heart, realizing the only thing he could do now was to keep Little Demon out of this.
She was just an outsider, with no ties to the Guo Family.
"I’m sorry, Young Master, but I cannot agree to your request." However, to Guo Chuyun’s shock, Lu Kejin flatly refused his request, impervious to any persuasion.
"Why, Little Demon is just an outsider!" Guo Chuyun turned sharply, glaring at Lu Kejin with anger.
Lu Kejin shrugged indifferently; Guo Chuyun, being merely at the Mid-stage of Ming Jin, had no intimidating effect on him.
"Guo Chuyun, how can you say that? I, I am not an outsider, I am your girlfriend!" Listening to Guo Chuyun’s outcry, Little Demon seemed upset, quickly grabbing Guo Chuyun’s arm and questioning him.
Guo Chuyun felt embarrassed; his words were merely a temporary expedient, but he knew that Little Demon understood this, even though she had already sworn to share life and death with him.
"Young Master, let’s go." Lu Kejin said no more, instead giving a signal to his four subordinates with a tilt of his head. Immediately, four Qianlong Guards approached Guo Chuyun’s side.
"Alright, I’ll go with you." Guo Chuyun took a deep breath, then grasped Little Demon’s delicate hand, preparing to leave with the Qianlong Guard.
"Our original stone." Yet Little Demon seemed obsessed with wealth; that was a treasure worth three billion, not to be squandered cheaply.
"Forget it, we’re about to lose our lives, why bother with worldly possessions!" Guo Chuyun shook his head, nothing mattered anymore.
Since escaping fate seemed impossible, why bother with other concerns.
Upon hearing this, panic flashed across Little Demon’s face. After a moment of thought, Lu Kejin waved his hand and commanded one of the Qianlong Guards, "Go bring the original stone here!"
Huo Yunjin and Chen Si were influential figures, and their dispute over such a small stone indicated there must be some significance.
Lu Kejin was just an external Elder and naturally was unaware of some of the Guo Family’s core secrets.
So, he planned to take the stone back and hand it over to the eldest young master for handling.
"Damn it!" Watching the Qianlong Guard carry the stone away, both Huo Yunjin and Chen Si were itching with hatred, yet powerless to act.
Although they were protected by experts at Half-step into Void Energy, Lu Kejin was no ordinary Half-step into Void Energy practitioner; he could defeat Peak of Early Void Force Stage experts.
If they dared to intervene, Huo Yunjin might ruthlessly kill them on the spot!
Thus, ultimately, Huo Yunjin and Chen Si remained inactive. However, hidden behind the Tang Family’s guards, Li Changlin made his move.
He whispered briefly to Tang Hongyuan, then squeezed out of the crowd.
Just as the Qianlong Guard had arrived, Li Changlin had suddenly been assigned a quest called "Qianlong Zaiyuan" with very rewarding prizes, including a special draw and three hundred experience points, and Li Changlin, of course, decided to intervene.
A Martial Artist at Half-step into Void Energy, he didn’t really take seriously.
This was because Li Changlin didn’t know Lu Kejin’s true strength, but then again, even if Lu Kejin had the capabilities akin to the Peak of Early Void Force Stage, he still wouldn’t be a match for Li Changlin.
