The beastmen around shivered all over at the sight, their faces full of terror.
The Third Boss... killed the Second Boss?!
Everyone knows that the situation in Sky City is treacherous, with various forces waxing and waning. The fact that Second Boss Sok could sit in that position for over a decade is enough to show how terrifying his strength was.
But unexpectedly, he was so easily taken down by this newly arrived Third Boss.
This can only mean that the true strength of this Third Boss is unfathomable!
He had always been hiding himself!
And they had foolishly tried to capture him, what a colossal joke!
Lu Xiao slowly wiped his hands, removing the splattered blood bit by bit. His deep blue-gray eyes calmly swept over the pale-faced beastmen, speaking softly, "What happened today?"
The group of people fell to their knees with a thud, repeatedly begging for mercy:
"Spare us, Third Boss! We saw nothing, really, we saw nothing at all!"
"Please let us go! We were just following the Second Boss’s orders, we had no choice! As long as you let us go, we won’t dare say anything!"
Lu Xiao sighed softly, his deep voice seemed even huskier, but his tone remained calm, "When you get back, I’ll report today’s events to the Big Boss. Now go."
The beastmen felt as if they had been granted amnesty, not expecting the Third Boss to really let them go, and fearing the man in front of them would change his mind, they all turned and ran.
But how could these bloodthirsty villains truly comply?
Once they returned, they planned to quickly report this to the Big Boss, saying there was a traitor in the city and thereby earn a large reward!
Just as they were secretly rejoicing, numerous sharp wind blades suddenly attacked from behind.
They didn’t even know how they died, their bodies were instantly cut in half, the large sprays of blood mist splattering on the ground, all of them lifeless.
Lu Xiao slowly retracted his hand.
Upon closer inspection, his slender fingers were actually trembling slightly, and his always upright and tall figure also seemed to be slightly hunched.
Once no one else was around, he seemed unable to hold on any longer, staggering forward a few steps, one hand supporting a tree trunk, the other clutching his chest—
He suddenly coughed up a mouthful of black blood.
