Lv Jialiang had just celebrated his 14th birthday half a month ago.
But this 14-year-old boy was so mature that he didn't look his age. It wasn't because Lv Jialiang was precocious, but because he was forced by reality.
On his 14th birthday, the boy didn't see his father, who he could only see once a year. Only his mother came alone, and she brought bad news.
Lv Jialiang's grip on the pendant tightened unconsciously.
"Something happened to father … that must be it!" Lv Jialiang had a plan.
Although she didn't say it explicitly, his mother's expression told Lv Jialiang this clearly. Moreover, his mother didn't take him away, which meant an even more terrifying truth.
Even his mother couldn't guarantee her own safety and didn't dare to keep him by her side, preferring to leave him in the Land of Nightmares.
"Brook, that guy, he must know something …" The boy's gaze was cold, and he saw through everything.
Brook's uncle was the personal attendant of a great god. Although he wasn't particularly powerful, he was definitely well-informed.
If not for that, Brook wouldn't have dared to purposely find fault with him.
Thinking about this, Lv Jialiang shrunk his body a little more, trying to hide in the shadows as he looked ahead with a determined gaze.
This was the only way Brook had to pass to return to his dormitory!
"He's here."
With a series of footsteps, Brook's swaying figure appeared in front of him. Brook, who was already over 25 years old, was already at the age where he couldn't drink without alcohol. Even in the Land of Nightmares, he maintained the habit of drinking.
Lv Jialiang took a step forward, and suddenly pulled out the pendant in his hand. It instantly turned into a long sword, and he pointed it at Brook.
Brook was still in a drunken state, and couldn't react in time to such a sudden attack. His shoulder was immediately hit, and this was the result of Lv Jialiang avoiding a vital point.
Lv Jialiang probably didn't expect the sword to hit him so easily. Even though he hadn't seen blood before, he was shocked.
But the boy quickly calmed down, and looked at Brook coldly. He said in a cold voice, "Brook, do you still want to live or die? Tell me what happened! "
The sharp pain from his shoulder made Brook wake up, and at the same time, he saw the boy's face clearly.
"Lu! You … you dare to sneak up on me! "Brook did not panic. Instead, he was enraged. Because he knew that the other party would not dare to kill him, otherwise, the other party would not have been able to leave this place.
"Do you think anyone can protect you? What a joke! " Brook was so angry that he laughed. "It won't be long before those adults catch you, you foreign bastard!"
Lv Jialiang's unique name was a clear indication of his origin. This was also the biggest conflict between him and the natives.
Lv Jialiang's heart blazed with rage, and he simply wanted to kill this detestable fellow with a single strike of his sword. However, he didn't completely lose his reason in the end.
If he left the Land of Nightmares now, there would still be hope of escaping. But if he killed Brook, it would definitely trigger the alarm, and then he wouldn't be able to leave!
He had already verified the conjecture in his heart. Was it worth it to exchange his life for this idiot's?
Lv Jialiang didn't need to think too much and immediately made a decision.
He sheathed his sword and gave Brook a hard slap. Then, he kicked him a few more times to vent his anger. Finally, he turned around and fled.
Brook was dizzy from the beating, and only regained his senses after a long while. He hurriedly pressed on the wound on his shoulder.
"Damn bastard … Who, who are you?!" He struggled to stand up, but he saw a young man in a white robe standing in front of him.
This person had no intention of paying attention to him, and only lowered his head to look at the wound on his shoulder.
The next moment, a pitch-black sword appeared. The length, width, and sharpness of the blade were exactly the same as Lv Jialiang's sword.
Pfft!
The black sword instantly pierced Brook's heart. The latter's eyes widened in disbelief, and his body slowly collapsed.
…
Before Lv Jialiang could walk out of the door of the Land of Nightmares, he was shocked by the alarm that resounded through the night sky.
By the time he wanted to leave, it was already too late. The relevant personnel had immediately sealed off the entrance of the Land of Nightmares, preventing anyone from entering or leaving.
"Damn it … Who the hell triggered the alarm at this time?" Of course, Lv Jialiang didn't think it was his fault, because he didn't kill Brook.
As for the sword wound, it was only a superficial wound, and the Land of Nightmares wouldn't care about such things.
Lv Jialiang could only return to the dormitory, wait for the alarm to be lifted, and then think of a way to sneak out of the Land of Nightmares.
It wasn't until a middle-aged man with a wooden expression and a bit of dignity appeared in front of Lv Jialiang with a group of people that the youth realized something was wrong.
"Sir Andy, this is Lv Jialiang." The person in charge of the Land of Nightmares stood at the side respectfully, and said to the middle-aged man.
Lv Jialiang recognized him, he had seen him with Brook before … It was Brook's uncle!
Legend had it that he was the confidant of a god, and his strength had reached the peak of the legendary realm …
"Come on! Your father is the legendary Master of Stars! " Lv Jialiang cheered himself on in his heart. Even if something happened to his father, he must not embarrass him!
However, the first sentence that came out of his mouth stunned Lv Jialiang on the spot.
"Was it you who killed Brook?" Brook's uncle said calmly, without any change in expression on his face.
"No! I didn't! " Lv Jialiang immediately roared, he couldn't stand others putting the blame on him. "I only stabbed him once, he …"
The youth's voice stopped abruptly, because he saw Brook's body being carried up slowly.
Brook's uncle didn't say anything, he just looked at him coldly, and suddenly reached out to grab the pendant in front of Lv Jialiang's chest. Then, with a forceful pull, the silver long sword was pulled out again.
The middle-aged man called Andy calmly looked at the long sword, and then said, "It matches the two sword wounds perfectly, this sword can be brought back as material evidence."
"What, what do you mean …" Lv Jialiang felt a chill in his heart, he had a bad premonition, and began to step back gradually.
Andy grabbed his shoulder, and said coldly, "It means that you will be treated as a murderer, and will be brought back to the Holy Kingdom with us to be judged."
"I didn't kill anyone!" Lv Jialiang's roar became louder, he was so angry that his eyes were about to crack, he saw all this as a plot by the other party to frame him.
Andy just said calmly, "Brook became the Oracle of our Lord two years ago, even if he wasn't pious sometimes, he couldn't be killed for no reason."
