"Jiao'er, do you think that my action is excessive?"
Inside the forest, Lu Wan suddenly asked Ye Jiao. The two of them slipped out of Lu Family Residence after disguising as servants once again. As they traveled in the forest, Lu Wan suddenly asked.
Ye Jiao looked at her senior brother. "I do not want to judge you too early, but your words when you talk about the servants bother me."
"I see," Lu Wan smiled wryly. "I just can't help it. If I don't do something like that, I won't be able to cut down the number of trusted servants that Lu Zhi had."
"Why do you want to do that?"
"If I don't, she'll continue to scheme for my life," Lu Wan shrugged. He looked at Ye Jiao's back for a moment before continuing. "There's a short story that I want to share with you."
"Yes?"
"There was once two children born in a noble family one male and one female. They have different mothers, but their mothers were just a lowly concubine and a servant for the family head. As they hold the family's bloodline, they're taken in by the family head as his descendant.
The two of them met in coincidence and started to become friends with one another. They played together every single day. But one day, the routine was broken because of an event."
"The testing event for six-year-old children?"
"Yeah. The two of them are of the same age, so it's normal for them to be tested together. But the result of the test brought them apart. The male has exceptional talent, a genius in a million people while the female has lower talent, ordinary without any remarkable trait whatsoever."
"Is that you and Lu Zhi?"
"Yeah," Lu Wan admitted.
"Even if you have different talents, you shouldn't have aim for each other's life, right?" Ye Jiao didn't understand.
"Normally, it wouldn't happen. I don't even know how things begin to go wrong. I received training from Lu Family and studied with Lu Su about many things. When I have time, I'll still visit Lu Zhi and play with her."
Lu Wan smiled bitterly. "That's my routine until around three years ago."
"What happened?"
***
*Three years before*
"Lu Zhi! I sneaked out again!" the ten-year-old Lu Wan waved his hand cheerfully.
Not far from him, Lu Zhi was sitting on the grass, reading a book. As a young girl, she has tender skin and a beautiful face. It was apparent that the girl would surely grow into a remarkable young lady once she grew up.
"Second Brother," Lu Zhi replied sweetly.
Lu Wan sat down beside Lu Zhi. "What do you want to play today?"
There were no servants or guards around them because Lu Zhi was practically ignored in the residence while Lu Wan ditched his guards.
"How about if we play outside? It's spring, so the warm weather is really nice."
"Sure! I'll ask the guard to open the door."
"I'll come after you, Second Brother. Can you please wait for me in the Blue Alleyway?" Lu Zhi asked with an excited voice.
Lu Wan arched his eyebrows. "Are you sure that you want to go there? It's quite secluded and empty."
"It's fine."
"Ok."
Lu Wan dashed to the front gate and talked to the guard. He told him that he wanted to go to the market for a while. There was also no need for an escort as he could take care of himself. Besides, his green hair made it easy for other people to recognize him as the young master of the Lu Family.
After he got the permission, Lu Wan ran outside and met with the villagers. They greeted him warmly as he was the young master of the Lu Family and an acclaimed genius in this kingdom.
"Young Master Lu, where are you going?"
"I'm going to play with my sister, but don't tell anyone," Lu Wan blurted out his plan. "I'll be waiting for her."
"Have fun, Young Master Lu!"
"Take care!"
It didn't take long for Lu Wan to arrive by the Blue Alleyway. He leaned on the wall as he thought about what game they would play that day. Usually, it was just a hide and seek or tag game. Other times, Lu Wan would buy some games in the market and play it together with Lu Zhi.
While he was deep in thought, Lu Wan noticed that several men suddenly came. His brow creased.
'Did I come at a bad time?'
"Are you Lu Wan?"
"Who are you?"
"He has green hair, so he should be Lu Wan," the other man said with certainty.
The leader nodded. "It seems so."
By now, Lu Wan was incredibly alert. He looked at the group as confusion and worry filled his eyes. What did they plan to do to him?
"What do you want?"
"We have an order to cripple the Second Young Master of the Lu Family."
"Who gave you the order?!"
"There's no need for you to know that, right?"
The young Lu Wan hadn't learned much about fighting. Even though the men were only Eon Energy Masters who hadn't reached rank 1, their strength was not something a young kid like him could contend with.
"Catch him!"
"Don't let the kid run away!"
Lu Wan struggled and tried to run here and there. He was not familiar with the structure of the alley in the city, so he just ran everywhere he could. There was no way he would want to let them capture him.
Bam! Thud!
As he didn't pay any attention, he crashed into a man when he tried to take a turn. His eyes widened when he saw the large man in front of him.
"I'm sorry, I'll move away!"
"Brat! Come over here!"
The man didn't move from his place as he grabbed Lu Wan's hand. "Green hair, are you Lu Family Second Young Master?"
Hearing that question, Lu Wan felt his heart grow cold. Did he just encounter another enemy?
