Chapter 123: Chapter 123: I won’t let any of you live in peace
Xu Mingtao asked in a trembling yet suspicious tone,
"Wa...wait...you-you didn’t en-enter the fo-forest?"
The lean man looked at Xu Mingtao as if she were some idiot and sneered,
"Why would I? I am not reckless like you guys."
Gu Jin suddenly asked,
"Do you have a twin brother?"
The lean man’s smile faded and he asked in a serious tone,
"How do you know? Do you want to threaten me using his name? Let me tell you he is a very powerful mage and he could easily defeat all of you in a few minutes so don’t you dare attack him."
Gu Jin heaved a sigh of relief, while the rest of the members exchanged looks.
Even though it was good that the lean man was not a ghost, however, it doesn’t change the fact that they killed his brother.
Let’s not mention how irritating this man was.
Even though they did nothing to him, he still kept on taunting them. Once he knows that they killed his brother, god knows what he will do.
Just as the members of Shadow Fangs was thinking about a solution as to how to disclose the news of his twin’s death, Gu Jin beats them and says,
"Do you know about Ebon Shadows?"
The lean man looked at Gu Jin doubtfully and frowned,
"Yes, but why the f*ck are you asking about him? Don’t try to trick me. My brother is a very good person. He is the one who has raised me and sponsored me till now.
If you say a word against him I won’t let any of you to live in peace."
His twin brother was only 2 minutes older than him but still acted like a father and gave on his magic cultivation to increase his(the lean man’s) magic cultivation.
The lean man saw how his brother struggled to pay off the bills and sometimes he also had to do 3 jobs in a day just to ensure that he(the lean man) had 2 meals every day.
Life was hard, but the lean man promised his brother in his heart, that one day he would become a successful mage and let him live in a luxurious place.
However, with each passing day, the debt kept on increasing and his brother started to dabble in a gray line of work.
The lean man only felt heartache.
His twin brother could have easily entered any prestigious magic academy. But he gave up the opportunity when he got to know about the fee structure.
Instead, he started to focus on him(the lean man).
Just like that a genius soon became a low-rank dealer...
The lean man didn’t want to show but he was quite agitated. His brother had been acting mysteriously for the past 1 month. And for once he had also found a paper in which very strange instructions were written.
What made him alert was the name of Ebon Shadows at the end.
He was scared out of his wits and warned his brother to not do anything illegal. It was only when his twin brother repeatedly assured him that he gave up on this matter.
But in the back of his mind, this matter remained.
Gu Jin continued,
"He was on a mission to eliminate some of the members of Ebon Shadow."
"What?" The lean man had a bad feeling and didn’t want to continue hearing.
Gu Jin continued,
"Your brother, he died while fighting the member of Ebon Shadows."
The lean man shook his head in disbelief and shouted,
"No! No! Please! Tell me that you are lying. Wait! I know! I offended you with my words, right? I take my words back! I am sorry! "
Gu Jin shook her head.
She didn’t like the lean man at all. But from the lean man’s expression and words, it was clear that he didn’t know much about the world.
He may curse you to die, but that is definitely not what he means. He just was anxious to stop them from leaving because he was worried about their safety but he used the wrong words and instead offended them.
Not bad from the heart but not good too. That was how Gu Jin evaluated the lean man.
Yet from his words, it was clear that his twin brother was very good to him and he acknowledges it from the bottom of his heart.
Such people who acknowledge those people who helped them are genuinely nice.
For such people, it is better to let them live in their bubble. For him his brother was a good person, so let him be like that.
"No! No! My brother." The lean man turned to leave the lodge when Gu Jin stopped him,
"We have his body."
(Author: Warning this is not a mistake!)
Thank god they didn’t dispose of it. They had thought of reporting it to the police but now...if they don’t think it would be necessary.
However, they indeed changed his body to someone else’s. Why? Because of Zhang Wei, they got to know that dead people can be resurrected.
Thank god Zhang Wei had a dead person in his storage ring.
Why? Well, that can only be known to that guy.
Gu Jin motioned to Zhang Wei, who nodded and took out the black-cloaked man’s body.
Zhang Wei quickly ripped the symbol of Ebon Shadows on the lean man’s twin brother’s body and passed the body to the lean man, who collapsed on the ground from the shock.
"No! Brother! Brother, please open your eyes! You can’t leave me like this! I didn’t even get the chance to repay you! Please! Please open your eyes."
Xu Mingtao and Yi Ran’s eyes turned moist. While Zhang Wei, Liu Sunhao, and Tang Guan lowered their head.
Gu Jin stared at the lean man and a scene appeared in her mind.
A 4-year-old girl was playing around. She wore a beautiful pink dress and her red eyes were twinkling with a smile.
