Chapter 1291: Dying Along with Him

Qiaoqiao had only pointed her crow repeating crossbow at him for a moment.
Yet that child harbored a grudge for that and waited for an opportunity to immediately take revenge.
It was rare to see such a narrow-minded child.
Mo Lian kicked that boy, which promptly flipped him upside down and to the ground.
Although his kick looked heavy, he had actually held back. After all, he didn’t really want to fuss over this with a brat.
But that child’s vicious actions just now really infuriated him.
If that child had been targeting him, he could dismiss it with a smile, but it was absolutely not okay for him to target his Qiaoqiao. That child even wanted to bite Qiaoqiao and make her get infected like him!
“You brat have huge guts.”
“Youngest Young Sir.” Liu Yuan quickly leapt over to shield him, and he lifted his arms to block Duan Yue’s kick. “Stop, stop, stop. Pl-Please do not get angry, young sirs and misses. Youngest Young Sir is only doing this in a fit of pique. He is still young, still young, and is immature! I beseech everyone, do not hold it against him.”
“Do not beg them.” The boy glowered at Qiao Mu and company ferociously, his eyes indistinctly glowing red.
“Didn’t she say that I won’t be living for long! Then I’m going to bite her to death and have this woman die along with me.” The boy kicked furiously, but he was unable to break out of Liu Yuan’s arms.
Liu Yuan found a sturdy rope and tied up that boy. Afterwards, he wiped the sweat on his forehead and gave Qiao Mu an apologetic smile. “So-Sorry, this miss, Youngest Young Sir is only acting so brazenly because of the extreme shock from his parents’ death.”
Qiao Mu glanced at that boy and shook her head with a sigh. She then tugged at Mo Lian’s sleeve and said softly, “Forget about it, let’s leave.”
Everyone thus passed them quickly and hurried toward their destination, Jiaozhong Base.
Duan Yue looked back and fixed his gaze nonchalantly on Liu Yuan. “Something’s weird about this person.”
“Weird indeed.”
Normally, people who found out that a person beside them was mutating would still be somewhat terrified if not frightened to death. In any case, they would at least want to avoid the other person to ensure their own personal safety.
But this Liu Yuan…
He gave off a weird feeling.
Mo Lian scoffed, “Qiaoqiao is correct. This person has other intentions. You find him weird because he is the only one among them wearing a lined jacket that is out of season and has cotton padding around his arms.”
Now that it was already spring, it still might be a bit cold in the morning, but wearing something like a lined jacket at this time of day was totally unbearable. You would die from the heat!
Realization dawned on everyone when they heard this, and they gave continuous nods.
“He had long known that the City Lord’s Estate’s youngest young sir had gotten infected,” several people exclaimed in unison.
Mo Lian nodded. “Correct, he had long known and had also made complete preparations.”
“Your Highness has eyes like a hawk. That should indeed be the case,” remarked a male disciple from Daybreak Sect with a nod.
“Tsk, tsk. Then what is this person’s objective.” The person who spoke was Eldest Qin, who had slipped into the hundred-man party. It wasn’t until after they had departed that Mo Lian noticed this guy had fabricated a fake name to join this time’s cleaning operation in Jiaozhong Base.
Mo Lian swept him a disagreeable glance. “You’re so smart that you can fabricate a fake name to join our operation, so how can you not know what that person’s objective is.”
“Xiao Bao, the crown prince is scolding me.” The eldest young sir turned his head around in a huff to look at the expressionless Qiao Mu.
