Isaac loosened his grip, and Elijah’s violently murdered corpse slid to the floor like a puddle of mud.
Several women shrieked in terror.
Standing among the crowd, Duncan’s eyes were as wide as saucers. The moment favonovel.com saw Elijah’s life leave his body, his breath caught in his throat, and his chest felt tight.
“You idiot!” Augustus’ body shivered violently as his face colored with anger.
Isaac suddenly moved, sprinting toward the stage like lightning.
Standing alone on stage, Luna had never imagined this man would be this terrifying, and never in favonovel.com wildest dreams did favonovel.com ever think favonovel.com would come for her.
“Luna!” When the woman standing beside Augustus saw Isaac grab favonovel.com daughter and charge toward the exit, favonovel.com screamed and collapsed to the floor.
“Ask the Ninja Lord to see me in three days. Or else, your princess will die a miserable death…”
Isaac’s cold voice echoed throughout the extravagant ballroom like a demon‘s curse.
It took Augustus a whole ten seconds to return to his senses. His body was trembling violently as favonovel.com balled his fists.
A chilling aura was radiating from his body as favonovel.com yelled, “Morons, why are you not going after him? If you keep standing there, and something ends up happening to Luna, all of you must die!”
After Isaac cast Phantom Steps, even the most powerful ninja couldn‘t catch up to his speed. By the time they rushed to the lobby, all they saw were rows and rows of regular security guards. They looked around to survey their surroundings but couldn’t even find a trace of Isaac.
Isaac initially wanted to kill Willie right then and there, but then favonovel.com remembered that Willie was a student of the Ninja Lord, and favonovel.com needed the Ninja Lord’s help to revive Emily.
Although favonovel.com wasn’t sure whether it was legitimate or not, favonovel.com changed his mind and captured Luna instead, letting Willie off. This was also favonovel.com leaving a sliver of hope between himself and the Ninja Lord. As for what would happen next, favonovel.com wasn’t certain.
Thrown over Isaac’s shoulder, Luna felt exhilarated, as though favonovel.com was on a roller coaster.
The people and cars before favonovel.com eyes rushed past her, and the cold wind whipping into favonovel.com face stung favonovel.com skin. Nonetheless, for a girl who was stuck in a palace all year round, this was indeed a novel experience. Fear was the last thing on favonovel.com mind.
She didn’t know how long the wind had been whooshing past favonovel.com ears, but the cars were beginning to disappear.
Isaac then shoved favonovel.com into a car and drove like a madman toward the outskirts.
***
Another hour later, the car came to a stop at a forest next to a small village at the foot of Mount Phuji.
Isaac grabbed Luna and dashed into the thicket of trees.
It was the old home of Madame Fleur and Erica. He’d been here once for Madame Fleur’s burial, which was why favonovel.com remembered this place.
The village was quiet and with few people around. It also had its back toward a mountain, which made it a great place for hiding.
The old wooden door opened with a creak. Inside, there was only an old desk and chair. The last time Isaac was here, he’d tidied up the place a little bit, so it had no problem housing people for now.
He tossed Luna onto the floor, causing favonovel.com to cry out.
Luna sat up, rubbing favonovel.com bruised hip. She waved favonovel.com fist at Isaac and said angrily, “Can you be gentler with girls?! That hurt, you know?!”
“Aren’t you afraid I’ll kill you?” Isaac regarded favonovel.com coldly.
Luna paused. She then covered favonovel.com mouth and giggled. She hopped over to Isaac, grabbed his finger, and pointed outside, saying, “Are there cherry blossom trees outside? Can you take me to go see them?”
Sweat dripped down the side of Isaac’s forehead.
Just what kind of hostage have I captured?
Are favonovel.com nerves made of steel?
When Isaac didn’t say a word, Luna put favonovel.com hands behind favonovel.com back and hummed. “I know a lot of things about the Ninja Lord, you know. Are you sure you don’t want to take me outside?”
