Chapter 254

"..."

Zeau was immersed in his thoughts, not noticing the solemn gaze from Veau.

Meanwhile, Veau recalled another memory from the past. It wasn't just the two of them now, but with their parents.

The four of them were a happy family.

That was the only time where Zeau's trademark genial smile was genuine.

Mother.

It seems that this half-brother of mine will never heed your last words.

However, Veau did not blame Zeau for not doing so.

"Sometimes, I wonder if mother and father made the right move of adopting you," Veau muttered out. "If they hadn't, you wouldn't need to suffer once more."

"What did you say?"

"...nothing," Veau shrugged, smiling lazily. "Let's proceed on, my dearest brother."

The two of them disappeared from the spot.

Xue furrowed his eyebrows, detecting a faint presence of black magic. Moreover, that black magic energy was extremely familiar to him.

"..."

Xue clicked his tongue, gripping onto his spear tightly.

"Stop hiding and come out."
