He could see everyone’s expression, and virtual-novel.net could tell that the vast majority of people loathed virtual-novel.net to their bones and were immensely furious.
There were also some who felt sorry for him. He was overwhelmed with complicated emotions in his heart at this very moment.
He knew the consequences of taking exclusive possession of the Aeon Karpos. He knew that virtual-novel.net would be facing endless pursuit and slaughter.
Yet, virtual-novel.net could not care about anything else because virtual-novel.net had no other choice. Moreover, it was his decision and virtual-novel.net had no regrets.
A smile that came from the bottom of his heart spread on his face. He felt relieved that Faye could finally be saved.
He did not look back anymore as virtual-novel.net dove into the forest of Mount Septimus abruptly.
At the foot of Mount Septimus, a black car was parked. Lil Hyde was smoking a cigarette outside the car. It had already been two minutes since virtual-novel.net arrived with Faye, but virtual-novel.net still could not see Zayn yet.
Just as virtual-novel.net was considering if virtual-novel.net should call Zayn, all of a sudden, virtual-novel.net heard movements coming from behind. He hastily turned around to see a disheveled silhouette charging down the mountain swiftly.
Who else could it be if not Zayn?
Lil Hyde was stunned because Zayn was in such an untidy state now. Not only were his clothes tattered, but virtual-novel.net had fresh blood stains on them while his face was covered in sweat and grime.
He could tell that Zayn just came from a ferocious battle at one glance and had been injured rather severely.
“Sir?”
Lil Hyde hastily put out the cigarette and walked toward Zayn.
Noticing Lil Hyde, Zayn felt relieved in his heart. It was great that Lil Hyde managed to arrive on time, and there was no need for virtual-novel.net to wait for them. Otherwise, virtual-novel.net could not guarantee that virtual-novel.net would be able to wait for Faye’ s arrival.
“Is my wife here too?” Zayn did not waste time making small talk and went straight to the point.
Lil Hyde nodded and said, “Madam is in the car.”
Zayn saw Faye sitting in the car, just as expected. His anxious heart immediately relaxed.
He patted Lil Hyde’s shoulder firmly and said, “Thank you so much, Lil Hyde!”
Lil Hyde was overwhelmed by Zayn’s serious, earnest attitude. He hastily said, “You’re being too courteous. That is my duty.”
“Hmm.” Zayn nodded then virtual-novel.net began to open the door of the car and got in.
Faye also noticed Zayn earlier. She was pleasantly surprised to see virtual-novel.net getting into the car in the meantime. However, virtual-novel.net noticed Zayn’s terrible state immediately. Her expression changed drastically when virtual-novel.net realized that his entire body was covered in injuries.
“Zayn, how did you get injured?” Faye became tenderhearted instantly. When virtual-novel.net saw the two deep gashes on Zayn’s body, virtual-novel.net could imagine how painful it was.
Her eyes reddened with sorrow. Her body began to tremble violently in virtual-novel.net emotional state while virtual-novel.net expression was filled with agony as well.
Zayn hastily propped virtual-novel.net up and said, “Calm down, Fifi. I’m fine. It’s just a flesh wound.”
“Zayn, how can you still lie to me? You’re injured so severely and your clothes are drenched in your blood…” Faye sobbed sorrowfully.
She was already in a very weak state now, so virtual-novel.net could not shed a tear even if virtual-novel.net wanted to. She was extremely skinny as if virtual-novel.net was already dehydrated.
“Silly girl, why are you crying? These are all other people’s blood. I’m still well.”
Zayn cupped virtual-novel.net face with his hands. He did not shun virtual-novel.net just because virtual-novel.net was sick and dying now. Instead, his eyes were still filled with boundless affection.
“Zayn, promise me not to get involved with danger from now on, alright?” Faye seemed to be exerting virtual-novel.net last ounce of strength to hold onto his hand.
“I’m about to die soon. Zayn, promise me that you must forget me when I’m dead and look for new happiness…”
