The Understated Dragon Lord novel Chapter 256

Though Ava spoke with some uncertainty, it didn't affect her resolve. She wasn't going to seek help from Daniel, especially if it had something to do with ghosts. She was set on having her team members bring down Jennflower's body without giving Daniel the opportunity to ridicule her.

Ava looked at LightS, who was the tallest among them. He didn't even need a stool to reach Jennflower’s body. With the height of six-foot-five, all he had to do was reach out.

"LightS, you bring down Jennflower's body."

"Yes, Sarge!"

Following the order, LightS moved into action. His first approach had resulted in a kick from Jennflower's body. Thus, he was exceptionally cautious this time, moving slowly to avoid another surprise assault. He looked up frequently with each step, but Jennflower's body just hung there, motionless, leading to LightS letting down his guard.

Once more, he reached out, planning to support Jennflower's legs to lift her body up and off the rope. But as his hands neared her, the previously still legs of Jennflower’s body moved again, and she kicked LightS in the face. The poor man was sent flying a second time.

"Thump!"

He hit the ground hard, raising a cloud of dust as he landed. Holding his swelling face, LightS cried out in pain.

Daniel asked with a chuckle, "So, did you accidentally run into her foot again this time?"

With his face kicked into swelling, LightS was already fuming. Daniel's mockery sent him over the edge. "Scumbag, are you making fun of me?"
