Behind him, Zero's footsteps grew clearer and clearer as they approached.
call!
With rapid breathing and the sound of clothes rustling in the wind, that slender figure crashed hard into Lu Mingfei's back!
The immense impact caused Lu Mingfei's body to sway involuntarily, but he firmly planted himself on the ground.
Zero wrapped her arms tightly around his waist from behind.
Her cheek pressed tightly against his back, and hot tears instantly soaked through his coat.
"No...don't leave me alone!" Zero said, her voice trembling with tears.
After a long silence, Lu Mingfei said gently:
"Could you tell me about what happened in the past sometime?"
"Mmm!" Zero sobbed softly.
"Don't worry..." Lu Mingfei had only said half of his sentence when he felt a strong sense of unease.
He grabbed Zero's hand and pulled her into his arms, his golden eyes scanning their surroundings warily.
"What's wrong?" Zero asked in a low voice.
"I'm afraid something has happened that I don't know about," Lu Mingfei said with a grim expression.
"So what should we do now?"
Lu Mingfei said in a low voice:
"Let's go to Shilan Middle School to see Xia Mi first. If we can get her Dragon King's authority today, things will be much simpler from here on out."
"Mmm!" Zero responded softly.
She never expected that the girl Lu Mingfei went to see was actually the Dragon King.
Lu Mingfei took her hand, and the two walked quickly toward Shilan Middle School.
Ling felt incredibly happy; even if she were to hold his hand and do something dangerous, it would still be something she looked forward to.
……
Meanwhile, at her aunt's house, in Lu Mingze's room.
Just a few days ago, this place could perhaps have been called the shared room of Lu Mingfei and his cousin.
But now, it is Lu Mingze's exclusive territory.
Lu Mingze lay sprawled on the bed, his bloated body staring blankly at the ceiling.
His gaze involuntarily swept across the other side of the room—the bed that originally belonged to his cousin Lu Mingfei, now empty, filling him with mixed feelings.
Since Lu Mingfei completely broke ties with his family, their lives have plummeted from the clouds into hell.
Every time they stepped out of their homes, they were greeted by the unseeing gazes of their neighbors, as well as undisguised pointing fingers and disdainful expressions.
That look in his eyes was as if he were wary of some heinous criminal!
An invisible pressure tightly bound them.
Wherever I go, I always hear those hushed yet incredibly clear voices of conversation.
Everyone was speaking out in defense of the cousin, condemning the family's cold-heartedness and cruelty.
The consequences are obvious.
My parents have hardly dared to go out these past few days.
Even just going downstairs to buy groceries requires being fully equipped with protective gear:
Wearing layers of sunglasses, hats, and masks, they would sneak out like thieves during quiet, secluded times when few people were around.
Every time the mother returned in a disheveled state, she would inevitably transform into an erupting volcano, cursing Lu Mingfei, who was not present.
Only when she's exhausted from yelling can the family get a moment's respite.
As for the father?
The man who values his pride more than his life has been locking himself in his house for the past few days.
That face, which was usually quite decent, was now frozen in frost, drooping all day long, so gloomy it looked like it could be wrung out of water.
"Crack..."
A faint cracking sound suddenly rang out, interrupting Lu Mingze's thoughts.
He subconsciously turned his head to look at his cousin's empty bed.
Immediately afterwards, his pupils contracted sharply!
To his horror, four pitch-black cracks suddenly appeared out of thin air above the bed at different locations!
The cracks stood upright, like the claw marks of ghosts and gods!
"Ah...?" Lu Mingze was so startled that he shuddered and sat up abruptly.
Before he could examine them closely, the four cracks suddenly emitted a deep and ominous dark light, instantly expanding into four jet-black pillars of light!
"Oh my god!" Lu Mingze let out a distorted scream, like a frightened fat worm, and rolled back onto his bed, pulling the quilt tightly over his head, shrinking inside and trembling like a leaf.
Broken pleas, tinged with sobs, echoed in the cramped bed:
"Brother...brother, please don't come looking for me! I didn't mean to hurt you! I didn't do anything! It really wasn't me..."
"If you want revenge... you... you go find my mom! She did it all! Don't come looking for me! Please!..."
"Did you hear that?"
"I heard!"
That voice... it's my cousin Lu Mingfei's!
But... there are some subtle differences?
Lu Mingze trembled even more violently, letting out muffled sobs. He was so frightened that he swallowed back his pleas for mercy, and could only instinctively wrap himself tightly in the blanket and struggle in vain.
The conversation in the room did not stop.
"Ha, I never expected that the people who hate him the most in this world are actually his own aunt's family."
"As expected, wasn't it?"
"That's true."
"In our world, the outcome would probably be the same."
"So now... what do you want to do?" a voice asked.
The answer was a short, chilling laugh:
"Is that even a question? Of course... kill them!" The moment the words left his mouth—
"BOOM!!!" With a deafening roar, the bed where Lu Mingze was hiding, along with the entire bed frame, shattered instantly as if struck by an invisible giant hammer, sending wood chips, cotton wadding, and nauseating chunks of scarlet flesh flying everywhere!
Amidst the billowing dust, four figures emerged calmly from the shattered ruins, their unhurried steps sweeping indifferently over the devastation.
Almost at the same time as the loud noise, my aunt's door was violently yanked open with a "bang"!
"Lu! Ming! Ze! Are you trying to kill me! What are you doing now..." Auntie's sharp and sarcastic roar poured out as usual, but the moment she saw what was happening, she suddenly fell silent, like a duck being choked!
In her field of vision, Lu Mingfei, dressed in a strange black robe, was strolling out of Lu Mingze's room.
The black robe covered most of his body, but a pair of eyes burning with a cold, golden light pierced through the shadows and looked over.
"Lu Mingfei?! You little bastard, you still have the nerve to talk back..." Upon seeing this hateful face, the resentment that had been building up in her chest for days suddenly erupted. Her blood-red mouth was about to open when, in the next instant, her expression froze completely, like water frozen in time!
Behind Lu Mingfei in his black robes, another figure emerged.
The sky-blue school uniform... it's... another Lu Mingfei?!
Her eyes widened in disbelief, almost bulging out of their sockets!
It's not over yet!
Immediately afterward, another figure stepped out with composure: a Korean-style two-button black suit, encasing a slender body, with a cold smile playing on his lips.
Finally, there was Lu Mingfei, a slender man dressed in a white shirt and casual pants, with a striking blue cat-ear headphone around his neck, casually scanning his surroundings.
Four! Four Lu Mingfeis?!
Absurd! The sheer absurdity shocked Auntie!
But after a brief moment of shock, the deep-seated dominance and desire for control instantly overwhelmed the fear.
Who cares how many Lu Mingfeis there are! As long as they are Lu Mingfeis, they should obediently be trampled under her feet!
"You bunch of little bastards!" She straightened her back again, her chest heaving violently, the muscles in her face contorted with rage, and the vicious curses that had been building up for days were about to burst forth, "If it weren't for the fact that my family took in all these years..."
"Clap!"
A crisp, abrupt snap of fingers casually cut off her tirade.
It's the cute boy version of Lu Mingfei wearing cat-ear headphones.
He didn't even look at her, he just snapped his fingers casually.
The next moment—
"call!"
No warning!
My aunt's body was as if it had been doused with napalm, and instantly burst into towering orange-red flames!
Skin, fat, hair... all crackled and popped under the terrifying heat!
"Aaaaaaah!!!" A bloodcurdling scream, so shrill it was inhuman, instantly filled the entire living room!
Auntie instantly transformed into a violently rolling and struggling fireball!
All her vicious words were completely crushed by this excruciating pain that went straight to the depths of her soul, leaving only a shrill scream that could tear eardrums apart!
"It's awful." The cute boy version of Lu Mingfei wrinkled his adorable nose, as if disgusted by the buzzing of flies, and casually put on his cat-ear headphones to block out the shrill scream.
The commotion in the living room finally alerted the uncle inside the room.
He stumbled out, and the scene that greeted him struck him like a thunderbolt:
