Chapter 428 - Are they all dead?

Chapter 428 - Are they all dead?

"There is nothing we can do…" Shen Yue dazedly repeated Liam's words.

The two girls blankly stared at Liam holding their breath and waiting for him to say something that made sense and but it looked like that was not going to happen.

Liam also wanted to give them some space and time to process things but the two seemed as if their brain was going to shortcircuit.

So he quickly moved on to the next half of his speech.

"So that was the bad news…" He sat between the two women on the couch. He pulled over Mei Mei patted her and gently kissed her on the forehead again.

"There is also some good news."

The duo sharply turned and looked at Liam, their eyes widened like a deer in front of the headlights. Their whole world was collapsing, so there was also good news here?

How was it even possible?

"What are you saying, brother?" Mei Mei squeaked like a mouse. She was almost afraid of this good news.

"Eh! What? Did both of you forget?" Liam smiled, planting another kiss on the girl's head. "So what if the game is going to influence the world and change everything?"

"Did you both forget that you are also playing the game? If there can be good things, there can be bad things also."

"According to my theory, we should be able to get stronger in the real world if manage to become stronger in the game world. Does that make sense?"

Ah. The duo gasped and then the realization dawned on them.

"Brother, but how do you know all this?" Mei Mei wrinkled her nose, her entire face filled with anxiety.

"Sigh. Look here. I also don't know anything for sure. These are just hints I gathered. Bits and pieces of news from here and there."

"In any case, this game has already become our livelihood, and we are already playing it quite seriously. Nothing changes now, alright?"

Liam wanted to give the two some encouragement instead of scaring the crap out of them and this was really the best he could do.

"I mean I am sharing with you guys this piece of information because you two looked at me as if I was a madman for buying supplies."

"Tell me, what should I do? Isn't it best to be prepared?"

Liam stood up and sternly looked at the two women listening to him like little children, hanging onto each of his words.

"If I am correct, then our future is very unpredictable. So what can we do about that now?"

"All we can do or anyone can do is be prepared as best as we can. That's all correct?"

"Sigh, if I knew that you two would become so worried, maybe I shouldn't have said anything in the first place."

Liam acted like he was regretting his actions and closed his eyes. Almost immediately Mei Mei jumped up, becoming energetic.

"No. No. I am not scared. Brother, I will also work hard. We will do our best." The little girl tugged at Liam and hugged him.

"Brother, you must have been carrying this burden all by yourself all these days. I am so sorry. I didn't know. I was just messing around."

"I should have played it more seriously from the beginning. I am sorry. I really did not know."

"That's okay. Of course, you did not know idiot. Because I am only just telling you now."

Liam smiled lightly. Of course, just like he thought, this route was better. For a long time, this girl had always been all about protecting him.

She hadn't hesitated standing up against children twice her size back then and now, she was not going to hesitate and become stronger, all to protect him.

He could see the innocent determination in her eyes. Liam hugged his sister tightly, patting her on the back.

"This was why I told you guys not to die. Now, do you understand everything? Don't worry. Everything will be fine if we become stronger. Trust your brother. Alright."

"Ok." Mei Mei nodded and then continued hugging Liam. He did not say anything the two remained standing like that for a few minutes.

Near them, Shen Yue was still silent as she absentmindedly stared at the floor deeply engrossed in her thoughts.

Even after Mei Mei became better she was still lost in her space. "Sis, are you okay?" Mei Mei asked her. She walked over and patted her.

"Ah. No. I mean, Mei Mei sorry, can I talk with your brother, alone for a moment? Do you mind?"

Mei Mei looked shocked after hearing that but then she realized something and quickly ran over to her room.

"Sis Yue, brother, I am going back to the game. Aha ha ha ha. I am not here. Don't mind me. Carry on. Carry on."

Shen Yue awkwardly fidgeted with her fingers as she could see that the little girl had mistaken her words, but she could not care about that right now.

After she heard her room's door closing, she turned toward Liam but she continued looking at the ground without mustering the courage to look up at him directly in his eyes.

"You want to talk to me about something?" Liam let out a long sigh of relief and sat back on the couch.

The thing that he was dreading was telling his sister the truth and her reaction to it and now that that was over, he felt as if a huge burden was lifted off of his shoulders.

Shen Yue also should be fine? Though he thought that she looked a little stiff. What did she want to talk about?

Suddenly Liam had a bad feeling.

It was because he could see that the woman was neither sad nor shaky from fear. Rather she looked very serious as if she had something weighing heavily on her mind.

"What happened?" He asked again.

ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ ꜰʀᴇᴇ ᴡᴇʙ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ.ᴄᴏᴍ

Shen Yue took a deep breath, lifted her head, and slowly spoke, "Back then, near that graveyard…"

"When those five people assaulted us… you killed them repeatedly. Again and again and again. Until they no longer appeared… Are they all dead?"

Liam's eyes instantly narrowed as he gazed at the woman in front of him with a strange glint in his eyes. "What are you implying?" His voice became cold.

He stood up and stalked over to her, standing right in front of her. His eyes casually flitted over to the other side to make sure that this sister was really inside her room because...

Depending on what happened next...

Things could get really messy.
