"What's there to be afraid of?" Huo Lie coughed. "Since You Yan wants me to speak, she will absolutely not harm your lives. If your lives are spared, what is there to be afraid of?"
"But boss, if you just say it, we won't have to suffer like this."
"Impossible!" Huo Lie's face had already begun to turn from red to purple. He ignored the people following him and gave Lu Qingyan a strange smile: "Hehe. Youyan, you can give up on that idea. I won't say anything. No matter what method you use, you won't get a single word from me. You can just stay here and be confused by yourself. I won't keep you company."
Lu Qingyan's pupils contracted, and she hurriedly retreated dozens of meters. With a "bang," Huo Lie was reduced to pieces.
Those around him were also affected; though still alive, they were severely injured and unconscious. Those who were conscious stared wide-eyed at the scene, seemingly finding it hard to believe that their trusted leader would leave them in such a way, even at the cost of their lives.
Lu Qingyan slammed her fist against the wall beside her, and a stream of blood flowed down the gray wall: "What important thing could you possibly have that you would risk your life to keep from uttering a single word?"
The magic book mentions resurrection magic. If we use resurrection magic, we can definitely revive Huo Lie, and then we'll have a chance to get something out of his mouth.
However, Lu Qingyan knew that relying solely on her and Bai Su's two gold-level magical abilities was insufficient to use such magic.
Even if they manage to save him, her and Bai Su's levels will drop to purple or red. As for Huo Lie, who will be saved, no one knows if he will use his magic to self-destruct again, blasting anyone who gets close to him to smithereens.
"Ah—" The men screamed and rolled to the ground, the surrounding magical elements expanding rapidly. Lu Qingyan knew something was wrong and quickly moved away, only to see them exploding one after another, as if they were following their leader, Huo Lie, to their doom—bullshit!
Those people were clearly being controlled, unlike Huo Lie who voluntarily chose to explode.
I just don't know who could be so heartless. Was it Huo Lie? As their leader, it's not surprising that he would do something like controlling everyone. But if it really was Huo Lie, why didn't they all explode together, instead of waiting until Huo Lie exploded first?
"Hehehe," the mysterious voice appeared again, chuckling in Lu Qingyan's ear, "How about it, do you like this big gift I gave you? Wasn't it especially beautiful when they were blown apart, even more dazzling than fireworks?"
Looking at the splattered blood around her, Lu Qingyan gritted her teeth and said, "You're out of your mind, your aesthetic sense is warped!"
"Say what you will, no one can stop me from doing what I'm going to do." The voice chuckled smugly. "Are you angry again? You'd better wait for your next gift."
Lu Qingyan looked around but didn't see anyone suspicious, not even Bai Su, who was with her.
"Damn it, where did he go?" Lu Qingyan complained and turned back. She had only taken a few steps when she encountered four purple-level people surrounding Bai Su.
Purple light emanated from the hands of three men and one woman, surrounding Bai Su, whose magic wand transformed into a golden barrier to block their attack.
Upon seeing Lu Qingyan, Bai Su visibly breathed a sigh of relief. He said, "You crazy woman, you've finally come."
