Chapter 566
Some had lost an arm, some were limping, and some had bandages on their foreheads. They seemed to be a bunch of injured people.
They were armed with metal pipes, shovels, and other farming equipment, which made them look more like an angry mob, but they wore stern looks and appeared determined. They were the veteran soldiers who volunteered at the Valiant Institute.
Andrius protected them and the Valiant Institute, yet he became a target of the Sunners. After they learned of the news, they grouped up to support Andrius.
“Mr. Moonshade, we are so sorry. We just got the news. Are we late? Please don’t be mad at us,” said the leader of the bunch with a silly smile.
Andrius glanced at them.
All the veterans looked eager and honest. He could even see his own reflection in their passionate eyes
How adorable!
Andrius‘ heart felt warm. He said, “No. I’m not mad. How could I be mad at you guys?”
The veterans smiled. Then, they stood in front of Andrius with their makeshift weapons and stared at Sunny and his men cautiously.
Belarus looked at the veterans with deep thoughts.
Luna looked at Andrius in surprise. She did not expect him to be so influential.
“Hahaha!” Sunny cackled when he saw a bunch of crippled soldiers. He was scornful and disrespectful.
Then, he pointed at the veterans arrogantly and ridiculed them, “Andrius Moonshade, these are your backup and support? If so, you can choose your coffin now. Do you want a sliding one or a flipped one?
Hahaha…”
Sunny laughed out loud again.
Amidst his contemptuous laughter, a shadowy figure appeared before everyone.
The scrawny figure slightly hunched his back, but his eyes glowed green. It was the Emerald Tiger, Simon
Barn!
Crack!
As soon as he landed, the concrete beneath his feet cracked and spread outwards rapidly.
In a blink of an eye, the entire concrete floor cracked. Intense killing intentions swept over the place like a typhoon. It was so suffocating that the veterans had a hard time breathing.
“I–it’s Simon Bard, the Emerald Tiger!” one of the younger Crestfalls recognized the man and screamed in fear.
“W–what? Simon Barn?”
“The notorious killer who massacred all of the Lowes in one night? The vicious killer who did not even spare the old and the young?”
“It’s him! I heard that all the Lowes had their hearts ripped out by the killer. The hearts were then arranged on the floor to spell his name!”
“We’re over! We’re done for!”
“I don’t want to die!”
“We’re doomed!”
When the Crestfalls heard the name, their faces turned pale, and the women and younger ones started to cry as if they heard the Grim Reaper’s calling.
“Since all of you have heard of my name…” Simon enjoyed reaping fear from his target. He grinned and continued, “Leave, and I will only kill Andrius Moonshade. Those who stand in my way shall taste death!”
When he spoke the word ‘death‘, a strong gale arrived, causing the leaves to rustle and the trees to shake. The whirring was extremely loud.
The sudden gale somehow made Simon look stronger and complimented his status as a Pseudo-
Grandmaster.
While the Crestfalls were in awe, they were grateful as well. If they surrendered Andrius, they would be fine.
“Dad, did you hear him? Let’s go!” Harry grabbed Belarus‘ arm and wanted to drag the man away.
Belarus, however, stood still with a frosty expression.
“You b*stards!” Belarus suddenly became furious. He roared, “I, Belarus Crestfall, am a righteous man. How could I have given birth to cowards? Let go of me!”
He scolded Harry and George which made him loosen their grip on his arms.
The younger Crestfalls did not want to be involved. They had Belarus surrounded.
“Grandfather, please leave!”
“It’s unwise to sacrifice the family for Andrius!”
“Andrius can die however many times he wants. He deserved it! You have done enough. You don’t need to care about him.”
Other than Luna, all the family members surrounded Belarus, attempting to persuade him to surrender
Andrius.
“You… What nonsense! How foolish!”
Belarus was already old. He was overwhelmed by the young ones as they dragged him to the side. Nonetheless, he did not stop reminding Andrius to leave immediately, “Andrius, run! Run!”
“Run?” Simon grinned. “You want to run away from me?”
As soon as his voice subsided, his figure flashed and appeared at the spot where Belarus was standing a moment ago. He was three meters away from Andrius.
Fwoosh!
The soldiers immediately stood in between him and Andrius.
They knew how powerful a Grandmaster was, but they were soldiers who had fought on the battlefield. They would never step away at a critical moment. From the moment they arrived, they had expected death.
“Simon Barn, even if you are a Pseudo–Grandmaster, I won’t let you lay a finger on Mr. Moonshade!”
“Simon Barn, over my dead body!”
The veterans were determined and strong.
“Tsk. Tsk. Tsk.” Simon clicked his tongue at the stubborn veterans. “If you are offering me your hearts, it would be rude of me not to rip them out of your chests.”
He spoke the most horrifying words in the most casual tone.
God knew how many people he had killed.
“Why don’t you give it a try?” Andrius stared at Simon Barn with a grin. “Simon Barn, I believe you must have cultivated a long time to reach Pseudo–Grandmaster. For the sake of your effort, you better get the hell out of Dream’s Waterfront. If you insist on capturing me, your decades of cultivation will be gone and you will die right here. Don’t regret your choice.”
