People in Aurora are determined to fight chaos

"Let me introduce you. The dead man in front of you is Zhao Song, the deputy envoy of the Shadow Crow Guard..."

"But he doesn't look dead yet..."

"That's not the point. Just treat him as dead." Liu Li interrupted Lin Feiyu who was about to say something, crossed his arms and continued, "There is a sky lantern for sightseeing on the roof. It's very simple to operate. You are responsible for transporting the body out of the city, handing it over to Minglong, and then coming back with her."

"Minglong?!"

"Hiss——" The three of them took a breath of cold air.

Minglong, one of the five dragon sons of Zhendan, the leader of Weidong Province, the admiral of the Dragon Fleet, all the famous people on the blue sea have to call her Queen.

Such a famous legendary figure is actually coming to Haiqi?

The three careless people didn't think about the deeper meaning, but were excited with a hint of nervousness.

"Brother, is this true?"

"Really." Liu Li nodded. "Opportunities like this are rare. You guys should prepare and come back to me when you're done."

The three of them looked at each other and shouted in unison: "Yes!"

After dealing with the three funny guys, Liu Li looked at the remaining two girls and said calmly: "You guys go too."

"Ah? Why should I go?" Wei Junxiu was immediately unhappy, "What's the point of sending a wounded person? It's a waste of time..."

Unlike Wei Junxiu's complaints, Lin Manyu stared at Liu Li seriously, trying to see more from his face, but Liu Li still looked nonchalant, preventing her from guessing more.

"Little niece, listen to me." Liu Li looked at her seriously, "These three funny guys need a backbone, and it has to be you. Among this group of people, you are the only one who is most suitable."

Wei Junxiu pursed her lips. She didn't expect that Liu Li would recognize her so much. She immediately lost the thought of retaliating. Instead, she blushed and said, "That's fine... Let's go. You're begging me for it!"

"Yes, yes, uncle, please."

"Hmph!" Wei Junxiu acted a little arrogant, but she was extremely happy in her heart.

"Sister Manyu..." Liu Li walked up to Lin Manyu and said softly, "The task of taking care of them is left to you."

Seeing Liu Li's earnest eyes, Lin Manyu's heart softened and she quickly agreed.

Among the five people, three of them are stubborn, and Wei Junxiu is very smart, but his ability to respond is slightly insufficient, so they need someone with a delicate mind to help them.

Obviously, Lin Manyu is that person.

This is also the role she plays in this small group. Otherwise, according to Wei Junxiu's personality, she would have caused a huge disaster long ago.

"Liu Li, no matter what happens, you must be careful." Lin Manyu whispered. She was obviously more thoughtful than others, which made Liu Li stunned for a moment. She didn't expect that this seemingly naive girl was actually quite sharp.

"Don't worry." Liu Li gave a reassuring smile.

Zhao Song and Zu Ju watched all this silently.

They had to admit that Liu Li's composure and courage far surpassed those of his peers.

Many times, Zhao Song felt that Liu Li was just an old-fashioned man in a child's skin, but many of the things he did were particularly childish and funny.

This is what Zhao Song has always been most worried about.

It seems that Liu Li has some kind of power, no one knows where it comes from, and whether it is good or bad.

From this moment on, it seems that Liu Li has not lost his way yet, and everything he does is undoubtedly for Zhendan.

But who can know in the future?

"We're about to set off." Liu Li looked at Zhao Song again. The latter pulled the corner of his mouth awkwardly and was about to speak, but Liu Li took the lead and said, "I don't want to listen to the dead."

Zhao Song: “…”

Zhao Song took a deep breath to prevent himself from bleeding heavily due to excessive emotional fluctuations.

Then he let out a long sigh, searched his body, and then threw a dagger to Liu Li.

"Oh, some equipment has exploded." Liu Li took it with a smile, ignoring Zhao Song's resentful look, and started checking it out on his own.

The blade was pitch black, emitting a strong yin aura. It was about one foot long, which was just right for Liu Li to use.

Time was running out, so Liu Li stopped delaying.

He asked the strong Fan Bin to carry Zhao Song on his back to lead the way, Lin Feiyu and Tao An walked in the front, and he and Zu Ju followed behind.

What Zhao Song said was correct, there was indeed an idle sky lantern on the roof, but it was filled with firearms and was obviously not for sightseeing.

"Hurry up and stop touching it." Liu Li urged, "What's so good about fireworks? Are you just a little brat?"

Everyone believed it and quickly helped Zhao Song onto the sky lantern.

Liu Li took advantage of the chaos and took a few long guns and put them on his back. Seeing everyone's puzzled faces, Liu Li said calmly: "I am only thirteen years old this year."

Everyone: "..."

Seeing everyone boarding the sky lantern, Liu Li walked towards the entrance where Zu Ju was still standing.

"Young Master, please let me stay as well." Zu Ju's expression finally changed. She looked at Liu Li with a determined look on his face, and her tone was almost pleading.

Liu Li shook her head and smiled, "Haven't we already discussed this? I'll stay here alone, and you take the children out of town."

Zu Ju saw this and lamented, "Young Master, what can you do alone to change this?"

If it was true as Zhao Song said, that this was a long-planned sacrifice, then Liu Li alone could not change anything.

But Liu Li, whom she had always regarded as a child, resolutely decided to stay and do her best to stop everything.

“Auntie…” Liu Li saw Zu Ju’s red lips trembling constantly, and knew that she was almost broken-down, “Lower your head.”

Zu Ju was slightly stunned, but still lowered her head obediently.

"Um--"

Liu Li stretched out her hands, stood on tiptoe, and hugged Zu Ju's fair neck.

"Little Lord……"

Zu Ju was shocked, but she didn't have the heart to push him away.

It was the first time she was so close to Liu Li, so close that they could even feel each other's body temperature.

It was totally different from ordinary contact, or even the kneeling of a carriage.

Zu Ju could feel the heartbeats of the two people getting closer and closer.

Liu Li buried his head under her neck, and the hot breath hit her delicate skin, feeling hot.

All this made her intoxicated and trembling all over.

"I will let my aunt see what I will look like when I grow up..." Liu Li clung to Zu Ju's neck, her tone childish but full of determination, "I will not die before that day comes... because... I also want to see my aunt take off her golden mask and live like a normal person..."

"Young Master..." Zu Ju trembled all over. She looked down at Liu Li in disbelief, wondering what position she occupied in the heart of this young master.

What was disappointing, or perhaps made her breathe a sigh of relief, was Liu Li's clear eyes, without any trace of distracting thoughts.

"It's time to set off." Liu Li gave Zu Ju a smile that put her mind at ease.

The latter pursed his lips and said seriously: "Young Master, wait for me to come back."

Then the two passed each other.

Zu Ju walked quickly towards the sky lantern, while Liu Li stood there with a determined look in his eyes.
