Chapter 256

"Hahaha, that's weird enough, I like it."

After saying that, the group of people exchanged smiles and casually reached out to scratch the filth beneath them.

"..."

Meanwhile, Luo Mio, who had been silently listening to their conversation, had no expression on her face, her azure eyes coldly fixed on them.

"Scumbags will raise scumbags..."

"!"

Upon hearing the sound, the group of Guard Officer were also instantly startled.

"Who!"

"Clatter!"

Footsteps came from beside the two of them.

The people looked over and saw a white-haired figure with a golden sheen walking towards them step by step.

"Who... who are you?!"

One of the Guard Officer extended a pistol from his waist and pointed it tremblingly at Luo Mio.

"..."

Seeing that Luo Mio didn't speak, the arrogant Guard Officer next to her also looked at Luo Mio with a fierce expression.

"Damn it, you brat, did you overhear what we were saying?" As he spoke, he picked up a pistol and pointed it at Luo Mio.

Luo Mio remained silent, instead looking at them with cold eyes.

"Damn it, you won't shed a tear until you see the coffin, huh?"

After saying that, he pulled the trigger towards Luo Mio.

"Bang!"

Gunshots rang out instantly in the living room.

"Clang! Bang!"

As the bullet struck Luo Mio, it acted as a protective shield, deflecting its trajectory and causing it to slam into the wall behind Luo Mio.

"——"

He slowly raised his arm and extended his hand to the arrogant young Guard Officer who was in charge.

"Aaaaaaahh..."

A scream rang out.

As if gripped by a tremendous force, the man's body was slowly lifted up, and bulging veins appeared on his arms, forehead, and neck.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!—!"

Seeing this, several of the Guard Officer immediately fired several shots at Luo Mio Ling.

But the result...

"Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!—!"

All the bullets were deflected by Luo Mio's defensive shield.

"Ah!"

One of the Guard Officer was even wounded in the abdomen by a ricocheting bullet.

Seeing that the bullets were ineffective, one of the Guard Officer drew his military knife and suddenly thrust it at Luo Mio.

However, to Luo Mio, his speed was like that of a tortoise.

She reached out and gently grabbed his wrist, which was holding the military knife, then Luo Mio slightly tilted it upwards.

"Ahhhhh, my hand! My hand—!"

The pain of his broken arm made him scream in agony, and tears and snot streamed down his face.

With a gentle tap, he deflected the military knife in the man's hand towards the Guard Officer who was trying to escape in the distance.

"Whoosh!"

The saber slashed across the Guard Officer's abdomen.

Blood was immediately spilled throughout the entire sacred hall.

The Guard Officer who was being held in mid-air by Luo Mio looked at Luo Mio with fear after seeing his fallen brothers and the blood all over the ground.

"Don't kill me! Don't kill me!"

"I... I... my family is very rich, and... and very powerful. What do you want? I can get you anything you want!"

"Ah, you heard what I just said, didn't you? Let me go, and when I become the Holy Child's betrothed, I'll give you some pleasure too?"

Luo Mio fell silent as she watched the man, her golden eyes lowering slightly as she looked at the small tent he had erected.

The man secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Luo Mio fall silent after his last words.

Damn it... wait a minute, I'll call my grandpa over and see how he deals with you!

Just as the man was silently making harsh remarks in his heart.

"So it's because I disappeared for eight years? Those old geezers have actually infiltrated the 'Holy Residence' and the Self-Defense Forces again."

Luo Mio looked at the man coldly and without any emotion and said.

"Huh?"

Luo Mio ignored the man's question, but her eyes flashed with a gleam.

Then, the man who was being held tightly by Luo Mio and the man who had fainted from the other hand were instantly sent flying backward.

"Boom--!"

Like a human bomb, it was embedded firmly into the pure white wall.

Looking at the two people, Luo Mio's golden eyes slowly turned back to azure blue.

However, Luo Mio's expression remained emotionless, and her azure eyes were still cold, empty, and ruthless.

"What happened?!"

A group of people rushed out of the main corridor.

The leader was Hoshikage Takuto, who stepped forward and immediately spoke loudly, as if declaring himself the supreme commander.

Seeing the horrific scene in the hall, Hoshikage Takuto's expression also turned somewhat grim.

Upon seeing Luo Mio standing in the center, her eyes behind her glasses widened slightly.

"You bastard!"

Then he raised the pistol in his hand and pointed it at Luo Mio.

"How dare they openly attack and kill Guard Officer within the Holy Residence?!"

Upon hearing Hoshikage Takuto's words, Luo Mio looked at him with empty, lifeless eyes, as merciless as a death god descending from the void.

"...!"

When Luo Mio looked at him with that terrifying gaze, cold sweat instantly broke out on his back, and his hands holding the pistol trembled slightly.

"Kill the Guard Officer?"

Luo Mio said coldly.

"They're just cleaning out the parasites in the world. Do they even deserve the title of Guard Officer?"

Chapter Thirty-Six: You can still stand here?

"They're just cleaning out the parasites in the world. Do they even deserve the title of Guard Officer?"

Extremely indifferent, showing no remorse for the murders... as if in Luo Mio's eyes, the deaths of these people were as insignificant as a wisp of smoke among the myriad beings.

"They actually said it was... woodworms?!"

Hoshikage Takuto was both shocked and angry, and his voice trembled with rage as he spoke.

However, his anger was not because Luo Mio insulted his so-called colleagues, but because of Luo Mio's indifferent, calm attitude, which showed no regard for him as the Captain of the Guard.

You have to understand that he is now the Captain of the Guard! He is second only to the emperor in the entire "Holy Residence". How dare a mere police officer speak to him like that?

"Immediately cover your head and squat down!"

Hoshikage Takuto spoke to Luo Mio as if roaring, as if trying to embolden himself.

Upon hearing Hoshikage Takuto's words, the other Guard Officer beside him also drew the pistols tucked into their waistbands and pointed them at Luo Mio.

Upon noticing the actions of his subordinate beside him, Hoshikage Takuto's previously angry expression shifted to a hint of pleasurable excitement—the kind of pleasurable excitement that comes from commanding others.

Luo Mio looked at Hoshikage Takuto's angry face, which was tinged with a hint of pleasure, while Luo Ling remained expressionless, coldly ignoring him.

When Luo Mio ignored him, Hoshikage Takuto's handsome face, which had been slightly smiling, instantly turned ugly.

"What happened!"

At that moment, a clear and pleasant female voice came from behind Hoshikage Takuto in the main corridor.

Then, behind the Guard Officer, a white-haired girl dressed in a pure white wedding dress, as pristine as a holy bride, slowly walked out.

"Your Highness Holy Child."

Upon seeing the pure white-clad girl, Hoshikage Takuto bowed to her, then raised his gun, looked at Luo Mio, and spoke to her warily.

"Your Highness Holy Child, please step back! This person is extremely dangerous! How dare he harm our colleague within Your Highness Holy Child Abode'!"

As Hoshikage Takuto spoke, he became increasingly excited.

As long as I kill this person who dares to cause trouble in the "Holy Residence", I can become the Captain of the Guard for protecting His Your Highness Holy Child!

And you'll also gain the favor of His Your Highness Holy Child... and become the father of the next Head of State!

Thinking of this, a sickly smile appeared on Hoshikage Takuto's face, but he quickly hid it.

However, when His Your Highness Holy Child saw Luo Mio and the cold, indifferent look in her eyes, he was also taken aback.

Just then, a figure appeared faintly in the corner of my eye.

The Holy Child turned his head to look and saw Kiyomi standing at the door on the other side of the corridor, staring blankly at the bloody scene in the hall.

Turning his gaze back, the Holy Child sternly commanded the Guard Officer in front.

"Stop! Put your gun away!"

Upon hearing the Holy Child's stern and solemn voice, the Guard Officer hesitated for a moment before slowly lowering their guns.

But...

"Don't worry, Your Highness Holy Child! I will have this thug surrendered immediately!"

Lost in his own beautiful fantasy world, he even imagined himself holding a pure white girl in one arm while standing at the pinnacle of this country with Hoshikage Takuto on the other, and his smile as he watched Luo Mio grow increasingly sickly.

Then—

"Bang!"

A crisp, loud gunshot rang out throughout the hall.

The Holy Child's beautiful silver-gray eyes slowly widened.

In her field of vision, a bright red color slowly stained the gray-white sleeve of the person she cherished and missed, turning it dark red.

"Clatter."

Drops of viscous blood trickled down the figure's fingers.

"Master... Mr. Todou!"

Upon seeing the blood on Luo Mio's shoulder, Kiyomi rushed over.

After all, she now knew Luo Mio's identity, and bringing Luo Mio to the "Sacred Abode" was an order given to her by the Holy Child, and now...

Seeing the worried look on Kiyomi's face, Luo Mio gently shook her head.

Meanwhile, Hoshikage Takuto looked at Luo Mio on his arm and Kiyomi beside him with a fierce expression.
