Chapter 279
The Crestfalls of the capital were not just here for a funeral!
The dignitaries of Sumeria got anxious.
Belarus and his family were nervous and worried. They all knew Idris had come for them!
“My loyal man, my trusty servant, Withered Valentine..
Idris looked at Belarus, Luna, and the others who were at the very end. A frosty look appeared on his
face “He died because of the Crestfalls of Sumeria. That is why, today is also the day that we mourn
them!”
He sounded chilly as he uttered each and every word loudly.
As his voice subsided, two ghastly figures appeared before Belarus and the others. They were Hex the
Demon Monk and the Pale Scholar. They carried intense killing intent and wore grim looks on their
faces.
“Belarus Crestfall.”
Hex’s bloodshot eyes looked white. It was actually the frost that formed because of his extreme anger.
“Are you stepping inside on your own, or… shall I do you the pleasure by killing you and then shoving
you inside?”
As his words subsided, a sandstorm happened. It was so depressing that it would push one into

“Hex, Pale Scholar.” Belarus said solemnly and fearlessly, “We are sorry for your loss too. My
condolences. But our family has nothing to do with your brother’s death. Do investigate and find out the
truth before you do anything rash. We are willing to make an offering as a token of respect for your late
brother as well.”
Belarus then signaled Harry who presented a bank card.
“Money?”
Hex cackled disdain, sounding like a cold–blooded beast.
“My brother’s life is not something money can buy!” Hex glared at Belarus. He saw his own reflection in
the man’s eyes. “I don’t need money. I want the lives of everyone in your family!”
When he finally revealed his intention, everyone in the Crestfalls was horrified.
Belarus wore a frosty expression and yelled, “Men! Show yourself!”
Swoosh!
Countless hitmen revealed themselves among the attendees.
It was Belarus‘ last resort. He would lower himself first and offer some money to Hex, but if the man
refused to accept the goodwill, then he would have to prepare for a fierce battle.
Belarus did not order his men to attack because it would be the worst decision and the last resort.
He stared at Hex and said heavily, “Hex, I don’t want to stand against you. Give me a number, and I will
gather the amount the best I can.
“But if you insist on taking our lives, we will fight back and we will do everything we can to make sure
you go down with us!”
Belarus sounded firm and decisive, but Hex did not take him seriously.

He glanced at the hitmen from the audience and scoffed. “You really think the men you hired are strong
enough to drag us down with you? You are going down today, every one of you! And I am certain that
you won’t be dragging us down!”
Then, Hex’s murderous aura erupted from his eyes. He bellowed, “Brother, kill them!”
Spoof!
The Pale Scholar disappeared from the spot. He moved so fast that he left afterimages in his trail as he
darted toward one of the hitmen.
Ugh!
Before the hitman could react, the Pale Scholar dug his eyes out.
When the hitman cried in pain, the Pale Scholar shoved the eyeballs into his mouth, forcing him to
swallow them.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThen, he fanned out the iron fan that he wielded and sliced the man’s stomach. Intestines and organs
spilled out from the opening.
The gory scene shocked many of the dignitaries, shocking them and causing them to throw up on the
spot.
They feared the Pale Scholar like nothing before.
It was brutal and gory!
The Pale Scholar, as his name suggested, looked pale and quiet, but his methods were as cold as a
serial killer. He did not even flinch when he killed the man.
Everyone was shocked by his method.
The dignitaries were horrified.
The Pale Scholar looked horrifying as if he was a ghost that everyone was afraid of
Swoosh!
Spoof!
Splat!
The Pale Scholar shuttled around the hitmen like a ghost, reaping their lives at a lightning–fast speed.
No one was able to match his speed, let alone respond to his kills.
A while later, all the hitmen were killed. The bustling city square was turned into a gory scene of
murder. Blood and organs splattered, and the stench of blood filled the air.
