Chapter 139 – Hey Friend, Have You Heard of ‘Siscon’? (39)
Yan Luo’s breath suffocated as she was watching as several people holding down the little boy grabbed his black hair, forcibly lifting his head.
Blood slowly oozed down his forehead, as if torn from his scalp by force.
Yet his face remained delicate and beautiful, tears flowing involuntarily from the corners of his eyes due to pain, his eyes filled with anger and unwillingness.
The man standing beside the lifeless boy laughed as he stepped out of the shadows, traces of blood staining his pristine Imperial Military uniform, making him appear even more sinister.
He looked like a person but was, in reality, engaging in deeds worse than beasts while wearing a human skin.
The boy’s parents had long perished tragically, and his elder brother had been subjected to humiliation and whipping, eventually silenced completely. In the eyes of the young boy, there was boundless hatred.
“General, this one is even more beautiful. It would be more enjoyable to train him. It’s a pity he’s not a girl, otherwise, raising him would be… with such looks, tsk tsk.” The man pulling his hair chuckled lightly, pulling the boy’s head even harder.
“Aren’t boys more thrilling? How about it, Vice-Admiral, want to take him back?” The others nearby looked on with amusement, as if watching a spectacle of destruction.
Feeling the force in the Vice-Admiral’s hands, Yan Luo seemed to hear the sound of hair strands snapping from their roots, causing her body to involuntarily tremble, instinctively clutching onto Lu Buchi’s clothes.
Perhaps due to the sudden release of mental energy, Lu Buchi seemed much calmer, though he still held Yan Luo tightly, preventing her from leaving.
He didn’t look around at the scene. His eyes were slightly lowered, concealing his emotions.
Meanwhile, the General had approached the young boy, smiling softly at his face, reaching to undo a few buttons, tearing apart his clothes halfway, seeming to find it more thrilling, then kicking the boy aside as if it added to the sensation.
The boy’s struggles were futile, his hoarse cries mixed with despair and unwillingness, piercing the hearts of onlookers.
The bloodstains on his body hadn’t dried yet when the man once again retrieved the still-dripping whip from aside. Despite efforts to suppress it, the boy’s body couldn’t help but tremble slightly as the whip landed on him.
He trembled violently but managed to suppress the cries of pain.
Yan Luo widened her eyes, her chest trembling slightly with each breath, until a large hand reached over, covering her eyes.
A familiar voice finally resounded, slightly hoarse and resigned, “Luoluo… don’t watch, it’s… dirty…”
“Elder Brother, you…” Yan Luo didn’t know what to say, only able to lean against his chest, listening to the sound of the whip around her and the muffled groans.
Suddenly, a loud noise sounded as if it fell right beside her. Yan Luo instinctively pulled Lu Buchi’s hand down with force, gripping it tightly.
The group of beasts, who had been enjoying themselves moments ago, now wore slight changes in their expressions.
Someone hurriedly walked in from outside, not even sparing a glance at the pitiful state of the young boy. “General, Vice-Admiral, a concentrated bombardment is coming. Command has ordered us to evacuate from this star system quickly.”
The General nodded softly, indicating he was aware, then walked over to the boy, who had no strength left to rise with his body looking like a bloody mess.
