Su Mu was late.

As he ran to the boy, the dagger slashed his throat, and blood gushed out.

Under the moonlight, this area was illuminated, and the ground, walls, clothes, and even Su Mu's face were full of bright red blood.

He was stunned, and his eyes were full of Evans's pained face.

A vigorous young man who was alive yesterday fell in a pool of blood today, his short golden hair was dyed red, and his eyes, which were originally the color of turquoise eyes, gradually lost their luster until they were filled with a dull gray.

is accustomed to seeing life and death in the world, but this scene in front of him Su Mu is the first time to notice it, it turns out that he has already become the same as them, sentimental.

Grimacing his grief, he reached out and closed Evans' eyes, then stood up and stared straight at Jon with a cold, fierce gaze.

He still held the bloody knife in his trembling hands.

Bang bang -

The knife falls to the ground.

……

Not long ago.

The king was standing on the high platform and reading the speech of today's banquet, and behind him, stood two powerful dukes, and on the right hand of them was Su Mu's target tonight - Brian.

He was dressed in a red formal attire, and the gems and shiny ornaments on his clothes all revealed his love of money.

After the speech, the crowd cheered and shouted, all congratulating the king's birthday at the same time, only Su Mu did not say a word.

It's a pity that it's too far away for Su Mu to cast spells, so he can only watch Brian stand there, if only he could get closer.

The sultry aristocratic hood was pressed against his head, and Su Mu pulled a slit on his face with displeasure, allowing as much air as possible to reach his scalp.

While wondering why Westerners would like to wrap such a stuffy thing in their hair, the alarm sounded in the royal city, and a long, piercing trumpet beat the sky, muffling the endless laughter in the city.

Su Mu, who heard the noise, raised his head abruptly and kept looking around.

What's going on?

"There is an Assassin invasion in the palace! Protect the King! I don't know who shouted, the voice sounded strong and thick, but there was a deliberate feeling, as if someone was deliberately shouting with such a voice.

Hearing the word "assassin", the royal city was in chaos in an instant, and the crowd rushed indiscriminately.

The Knights, who had protected the King, set out to search the city for the Assassins.

At this moment, in the corner in stark contrast to the panicked crowd, a familiar figure met Su Mu's eyes, he looked calm as usual, out of place with this chaos.

Evans?!

Su Mu was startled, and then looked over, and after seeing that the person was undoubtedly Evans, he hurriedly rushed forward, but the flow of people was blocked, and his movement became extremely difficult.

Why, Evans is here? Su Mu clearly remembered that he had ......

Could it be that he is holding his breath?!

Su Mu was using the sleep powder he had refined at the time, and if Evans really held his breath, he didn't inhale the powder.

In other words, the guy is pretending to be asleep.

Entering the palace without knowing himself, he didn't know how dangerous this thing was, and Su Mu realized that the cry of the assassin's invasion came from Evans's mouth. He's a fool, doesn't he think about the consequences, is he going to die with Brian?

Seeing Evans walk through the crowd towards Brian with a sworn gaze, Su Mu was stopped by the people around him.

Absolutely not! Sumu would never let Evans be charged with murder.

Just as he was about to cast a spell, a figure suddenly rushed out of the darkness not far away, the figure was holding a knife, and it was obviously heading for Evans in the direction.

Su Mu realized that something was wrong and was in a hurry.

I only heard a loud "bang" -

A huge tree broke through the ground, and the people were stunned and frightened by the sight, and some people were flying from the top of the branches that kept growing around the tree. In an instant, the branches overlapped and the foliage flourished, and the whole trunk did not stop growing until it reached the height of the stands.

In this huge courtyard, a shadow was suddenly shrouded.

Evans, who was not far away, was also shocked by the sight, but he had to kill Brian as soon as possible in the chaos, otherwise he would never get any closer to him.

The crowd around him was swept away by the giant yew tree summoned by Su Mu, and he finally had a gap to move forward and ran in the direction of Evans.

As the distance got closer, Su Mu saw clearly who the person with the knife was.

It's Jon!

Seeing that the tip of his knife was about to touch Evans, who was still moving forward, Su Mu shouted, drawing Evans's attention to it.

When he turned around and saw Su Mu running towards him, he stopped and hesitated for a few seconds.

However, it was this hesitation that gave Jon an opportunity.

I saw him quickly run to Evans's side, his knife in hand.

By the time Evans noticed, it was too late, and he couldn't dodge it in time.

He only felt that his neck was dripping with warm liquid, and he could see the blood spraying out of his eyes, and gradually, he found that he had no strength to stand, and when he knelt on the ground, Su Mu helped him in time.

Blood flowed everywhere, staining Evans' white cloth and staining the entire garment a vivid red.

"Evans, Evans!" Su Mu kept calling his name, for fear that as soon as he closed his eyes, it would be forever.

He put his hand on Evans' neck, but no matter how he used the spell to heal it, the blood continued to seep out, forming a puddle of blood on the ground.

With the last bit of strength, Evans grabbed Su Mu's hands tightly and told him not to waste any more efforts.

He knew that he was going to die, his throat was like a foreign body, he couldn't breathe in fresh air, he could only suppress his voice and say with all his might: "Brian......"

Su Mu looked at his painful but stubborn appearance with bruised muscles, and finally wet his eyes.

Just held him quietly until Evans was completely out of breath.

"Hahaha! I've killed the Assassins! I killed him! Jon laughed loudly as he held the dagger that had killed Evans.

Sumu set Evans aside, got up, and looked back at Jon.

He had never looked at a person so indifferently, or rather, he wasn't looking at people at all, but at an object—a cold, lifeless dead thing.

"What are you looking at me like that? Wait a minute! You, you're the one-"

Jon recognized Su Mu, but in the next second, he was in a different place, and blood splattered all over the ground and sprinkled on the trunk of the yew tree.

Su Mu made a dead hand, and his movements were clean and neat, without any hesitation.

He lifted his head slowly, his eyes darkened, like a misty lake, and he couldn't see his expression clearly.

With a flick of his arm, a branch extended to Su Mu's waist and encircled him, sending him to the high stand, where the king and duke stood, and around them, a group of tall knights stood.

In order to cut off their back path, Sumu used trees to block the staircase connecting the high platform, and the staircase collapsed, trapping everyone above, including Duke Brian.

The branches around his waist stretched back, and he gently lowered the sumu down.

With his feet on the ground, Su Mu's eyes slowly lifted up like looking at dead objects, staring directly at Duke Brian, who was blocked by the knight.

"Quick! Catch him! Such a monster! Actually killed my son! Brian shouted, it seemed that he had seen Jon killed by Su Mu's own hands, and his voice was trembling at this time, obviously terrified to the extreme.

Su Mu waved his hands to each side, and in an instant, countless giant branches of different sizes stretched out, which overlapped and entangled, sweeping away the knights who stood in front of him.

The king and the other duke on the side were already sitting on the ground in fright, snuggling up to each other in the far corner.

In front of the monsters, humans are really vulnerable.

While sighing, Su Mu had already walked in front of Brian.

"You, what are you going to do?!" Brian was so frightened that he recoiled, and his trembling legs could be clearly seen.

Seeing him so downcast, Su Mu couldn't help but have a mocking smile on the corner of his mouth.

This duke, who is greedy for life and afraid of death, is not worthy of being a man at all.

With this thought, Su Mu ruthlessly grabbed the other party's neck......

……

Empty lawn under a giant yew tree.

Covered in blood, Sumu returned, taking Evans' body with him.

In the wind, it is as miserable as a person alone in the desert, facing all things in heaven and earth.

Whether Evans' mother believed it or not, he informed her of the incident.

Ava cried to the point of exhaustion, and took Evans' body back to the cabin, where she was found by Susan, who had come to deliver the flowers, and hanged from the beams of her home.

Su Mu covered his heart and felt pain for the first time.

He was tired, and the consumption of mana in the past few days had exceeded the cultivation he had recently recovered, so he dragged his heavy steps and melted back into the yew tree, intending to have a good rest.

But what he didn't know was that this sleep was 500 years.

When he opened his eyes again, he was awakened by a man.

At that time, he had his back to himself, his long flowing hair tied back behind his head, and he was wrapped in a white robe.

"Sleeping here for so long and not wanting to move around?" His voice was like jade.

Hearing this, Su Mu appeared: "Do you know that I am a demon?" ”

"I don't know, but I can smell it." He pointed to his nose and turned around.

Seeing his appearance clearly, Su Mu was startled, and his green eyes were like sharp arrows that hit his heart, causing Su Mu to take his eyes off.

"What's your name?" In a calm tone, Su Mu suddenly asked.

"Octagon." The man replied very simply, as if he had been prepared, and suddenly, he seemed to be attracted to something, and he was looking down, only to hear him say three words, "Bellflower." ”

Su Mu followed his line of sight and looked down to see that a bellflower was swaying in the wind, growing proudly under the yew tree.

"Do you know what the flower language of bellflower is?" The man named Bafang suddenly asked.

Su Mu remembered the bellflower that Susan had given him at that time, and the fact that he had transferred the bellflower to Evans, and he couldn't help but smile at the corner of his mouth, and he approached the lonely little flower, squatted down, and lifted the low-hanging flower a little.

"Yes."

"Tell me about it."

"Thanksgiving, blessings from afar, and...... Tender love. ”
