The Enigmatic Return (Neera and Jean) novel Chapter 1290

Luna had no patience to waste time with them. She took a few steps and stood under the dim light.

Her sudden appearance left all the people in black dumbfounded, their eyes wide and speechless.

"You're Luna!" someone exclaimed in shock.

Even without him saying it, everyone else knew who she was.

During the district president's election, Luna had already revealed herself to all the people of Phison.

At that time, she was following the Medicina family.

So, it was only natural for those people to assume she was from the Medicina family.

Soon, someone couldn't help but anxiously question, "Aren't you from the Medicina family? What are you doing here?"

Luna found him annoying. As her eyes scanned the room, her hand swiftly swung, sending a small, sharp blade flying. It whizzed past, grazing the speaker's scalp.

A strand of hair fell from that person's head, revealing a patch of scalp. Coupled with his pale, bloodless face and an expression of shock and fear, he seemed particularly comical.

"Are you even worthy of asking who I am and where I'm showing up?" Luna's voice was delicate, yet her tone was exceptionally stern.

She continued to scan the room with her eyes, her voice cool. "Who is the leader among you?"

An eerie silence followed.

Before Luna's arrival, those people, relying on their status as locals of Phison, clung stubbornly to their secret, courting death in various ways.

But now, the situation was different.

Luna was indeed a genuine local of Phison and even a prominent figure from Lordsworth Estate. Hence, how would they dare to step out of line?

Long before they had laid eyes on Luna's true face, they had heard of her renowned reputation and various horrifying incidents involving her.

Everyone knew she was the most skilled fighter at Lordsworth Estate. Despite being a woman, her methods were more decisive and ruthless than the average man, showing no less brutality and severity.

She was so skilled that she could even extract the clues she needed from a corpse, let alone a living person.

If they were to fall into the hands of Luna, they could easily predict the outcome. They would be caught in a living hell.

That was simply a fate more terrifying than death!

The thought alone was enough to send shivers down the spines of those burly men in black. They trembled uncontrollably, and in unison, they turned to look at one of their own.

Although Luna was known for her intimidating reputation, she was undeniably beautiful. Her solemn facial features were stunningly cold and elegant. With a gentle squint of her beautiful eyes, she shifted her piercing gaze onto one of the men. "It seems you're the leader."

She took a few steps forward, stepping on the man's right shoulder with one foot. With one leg slightly bent, she looked down at him from above, exuding the commanding presence of a queen. "Speak up. Who bribed you, and what exactly did they ask you to do?"

The person looked up, unable to suppress an instinctual fear, continuously shaking all over like a sieve.

"Luna, don't forget, you are a member of Phison. How can you collude with outsiders?" Although the person was terrified, he didn't want to divulge the truth. Swallowing hard, he tried to persuade her, using words that would appeal to her emotions. "How about this? We'll make money together. You help us deal with them, and we split the profits fifty-fifty. As for today's incident, we'll act as if it never happened, never mentioning it again from this day forward. Does that sound good?"

Seeing Luna remain silent, just coldly staring at him as if looking at a dead man, he broke out in a cold sweat. "This benefits you too, you know. If you turn against us, you'd be colluding with outsiders and harming your own people. If word gets out, you'll be branded a traitor of Phison! Not only will your reputation be ruined, but you'll also be wanted for arrest by Phison. Once caught, you'll definitely be put on trial and exiled to Judgment Island! Why go through all that? It's better to join us in this venture!"

No sooner had his words fallen than a round of applause rang out.

With a smile, Cloud said, "What a silver tongue you have, daring to plot right before us. It's such a waste to have you involved in these murderous and treacherous deeds."

The person gritted his teeth, his mouth filled with the taste of blood, but he tried harder. "Luna, your status in Phison didn't come easily, did it? You wouldn't want to ruin your future over such a trivial matter, right? It's just about dealing with two people. That man and woman are insignificant, and their lives are worth less than grass. Their death would be no loss. There's absolutely no need to make an enemy of the entire Phison for them, don't you agree?"

A layer of frost covered Luna's eyes after she heard that. Her eyes were filled with a chilling coldness so intense that it almost materialized, capable of killing her enemies without lifting a finger.

"Their lives are worth less than grass?" she repeated, her tone chilling. "Their death would be no loss?"

That man felt the intense aura of hostility emanating from her, trembling even more intensely, unsure of what he had said wrong.

"You..." He opened his mouth, wanting to say something more, but a force heavily pressed down on his shoulder.

Subsequently, he collapsed with a thud.

Immediately after, accompanied by a dull "crack" sound, a heart-wrenching scream echoed throughout the entire garage.

They saw Luna stepping on that man's shoulder, grinding down forcefully. Astonishingly, that action broke the man's arm and shattered his collarbone!
