"Our pretty hostage seems in deep thought. What do you think she is thinking after hearing our conversation?" Zowen noticed Lulu staring at Tang Shaoyang silently. It was obvious that Lulu had something in her mind.

Lulu immediately looked down, ignoring the stares. She also thought so hard, thinking of a way to get her half-brother out of his doom. If the conversation continued, she was sure that her half-brother would be killed.

"So, should I kill him?" Tang Shaoyang glanced at the helpless Young Master Mistovel.

"No, don't kill him!" Lulu raised her head and looked toward Tang Shaoyang. "I can talk with my family not to pursue the matter anymore, but please don't kill him. If you kill him, you can never remedy the peace with the Mistovel Family. My family's God Ranks will not put down the matter until they kill you if you kill him."

She did not know what got into her mind, but she subconsciously threatened Tang Shaoyang. Saying her family's God Ranks would kill him was a blatant threat.

Tang Shaoyang narrowed his eyes, meeting Lulu's gaze. He did not take the threat seriously as he thought of something else. An opportunity when Lulu mentioned God Rank from her family would kill him if he killed Young Master Mistovel.

'What if I lure the God Rank of the Mistovel Family to come into the tower?' He guessed the Divine Lightning would be much stronger than the earlier Divine Lighting, and the last strike of Divine Lightning heavily injured the God Rank from the Divine Church. 'If one strike of Divine Lightning could injure the God Rank, then I can kill the injured God Rank.' He imagined how many levels he would get from killing a God Rank.

Of course, it was a great benefit with a high-risk, extremely high-risk since it involved a God Rank. If he predicted it wrong, he might die again under God Rank's hand. In fact, he almost killed one of the God Ranks if not for his body crumbling when he used an integration with Avyn.

"I don't feel good looking at his expression. He may have another crazy idea," Zowen quickly noticed. She was one of the earliest spirits with Tang Shaoyang, so she was a bit familiar with Tang Shaoyang's thinking.

"We will keep him alive for now…." Tang Shaoyang made the decision. "I might change my mind not to kill him if the Mistovel Family could trade me something with his life, a young dragon, for example."

Lulu furrowed her brow. She could not believe how outrageous Tang Shaoyang's request was in exchange for her half-brother. The Mistovel Family might have dragons, but it was less than thirty dragons. Breeding one dragon was hard, harder than giving birth to a new descendant. If she brought up the request to her father, she believed that her father would rather have her half-brother die than give a young dragon to Tang Shaoyang. However, she knew she could not tell if she wanted to keep her half-brother's life.

"If you give me the chance to talk with my father. I can relay your request in exchange for my brother." She decided to agree with the request for now. Whether they came up with a deal or not, she would think of another way to resolve it. She wanted to keep her brother's life until she thought of another way for now.

Tang Shaoyang gathered mana around his index finger, forming a knife with the mana. He then pulled out Young Master Mistovel's tongue and cut it.

"ARGHHHHHHH!!!" Young Master Mistovel screamed in pain, and his voice reverberated to the point of shaking the trees.

Lulu opened her mouth wide as she did not expect Tang Shaoyang would do that. She was shocked by how easily Tang Shaoyang did it as well. Her breathing sped up, thinking that Tang Shaoyang saw her bluff. She imagined what would come for her after witnessing Tang Shaoyang's cruelty and started getting concerned about what would happen to her later.

"I cut his tongue because I want to bring him to the village, so he will not be able to say anything to scare the villagers." The explanation was directed to Zowen and Rosalie, of course. Then he turned toward Lulu, "You have to take care of him since you want him alive!" That was an order, not a request.

After the short conversation with Zowen and Rosalie, he agreed not to torture Young Master Mistovel to vent his anger. On the way back to the village, he realized the change within himself. The fact that he treated the other humans as the tool to get him stronger. The moment he heard Lulu's brother had just reached Demi-God Rank. He immediately thought of killing Lulu's brother. The moment Lulu mentioned the God Rank, the first thought that came into his mind was how to kill that God Rank.

The realization disturbed his mentality, thinking that he had turned into a monster to have such a thought. Of course, his justification was that he needed to get stronger as soon as possible because many people's lives were on his shoulders. If he did not become strong enough, the people who trusted him would suffer. But he felt it was just wrong to get stronger by sacrificing other people.

Of course, he was not burdened with killing Young Master Mistovel and his subordinates. They wanted to kill him, so he killed them. It was more like self-defense. The thing that disturbed him was the thought of killing the other people who had not done anything to him yet.

Tang Shaoyang returned to the village with conflicting thoughts. As for the villagers, he easily convinced them that he had returned with friends despite how bad Young Master Mistovel's condition was. The villager immediately prepared houses for his friends, and they did not doubt his words even when he told them that Young Master Mistovel was his friend.

It was still noon, and there was still time to visit another dangerous place mentioned by Areth, but he decided to call it a day.

Zowen and Rosalie went to the villagers, asking for more food. The two women wanted to satisfy their years of hunger. The two returned early in the evening. They had their own house, but the two decided to sleep in the same house with Tang Shaoyang.

"It seems he is caught in his own thoughts again. You talk with him." Zowen motioned toward Tang Shaoyang's room with her chin, telling Rosalie to talk with Tang Shaoyang.

Rosalie took a deep breath as nervousness was apparent on her face. She nodded and headed to the room.
