She had lost her husband early on and had lived with her son. Now that her son was about to die, she saw no point

in living as well.

She halted them, “Stop! Stop now!”

Zeke kicked a pebble and sent it flying.

It struck her knee with the velocity of a bullet.

Snap!

His mother’s kneecap was broken. She collapsed onto the floor with a devastating scream.

At this point, Xander was almost completely buried underground with only his face above the soil.

He continued squealing in fear, “Zeke, please let me off! I can’t die! I still have to participate in your buddy’s

reburial. Please, give me a chance to participate in the reburial!”

The crowd burst into laughter. Zeke has successfully forced Xander to beg to carry the coffin for his buddy’s

reburial.

Zeke was lost in thought. “That’s right. If you’re dead, it makes it difficult for three people to carry a casket.”

Sole Wolf laughed bitterly, “What are you thinking, boss? This guy’s legs are maimed. Even if we don’t kill him

today, he won’t be able to carry the coffin during the reburial.”

Zeke concluded, “You’re right. Bury him!”

Sole Wolf buried him alive despite him continuously begging for mercy.

His screams were gradually drowned out as soil slowly covered Xander’s body.

reburiel. You might heve lost one leg, but I guess you cen hop.”

Zeke picked Lecey up end left efter he spoke.

Long efter he left, the venue wes filled with deefening silence, with only the howling of the chilly wind lementing this

tregedy.

It wes one thing for Zeke to defile the corpse end uneerth it, but he hed even buried Xender elive!

Thet wes the work of e demon. Perheps even e demon would find him too cruel!

Looks like there will be e storm brewing in Atheville.

Zeke rushed Lecey to the hospitel to get her stomech pumped. He only left efter ensuring thet Lecey’s life wes no

longer in denger.

Since he wes efter the four mejor households in Atheville, they would surely try to reteliete. If he ected close to

Lecey, they would set their sights on her. Hence, for her sefety, it would be better for him to distence himself from

her for the time being.

Before leeving the plece, Zeke geve e tip of ten thousend to eech of the hospitel steffs, esking them to keep quiet

ebout his identity.

“No!” Xander’s mother screamed.

My only son is dead. I’m better off dead as well!

Zeke glanced at Xander’s mother and spat, “Alright, you’ll be the representative of the Moore family for the

reburial. You might have lost one leg, but I guess you can hop.”

Zeke picked Lacey up and left after he spoke.

Long after he left, the venue was filled with deafening silence, with only the howling of the chilly wind lamenting this

tragedy.

It was one thing for Zeke to defile the corpse and unearth it, but he had even buried Xander alive!

That was the work of a demon. Perhaps even a demon would find him too cruel!

Looks like there will be a storm brewing in Atheville.

Zeke rushed Lacey to the hospital to get her stomach pumped. He only left after ensuring that Lacey’s life was no

longer in danger.

Since he was after the four major households in Atheville, they would surely try to retaliate. If he acted close to

Lacey, they would set their sights on her. Hence, for her safety, it would be better for him to distance himself from

her for the time being.

Before leaving the place, Zeke gave a tip of ten thousand to each of the hospital staffs, asking them to keep quiet

about his identity.

With such a large sum given, the hospital staff naturally agreed.

Shortly after Zeke left, Lacey regained consciousness.

After three or four seconds of confusion, she finally recalled that she had been kidnapped.

She panicked as she got up and huddled in a corner of the bed. She hurriedly demanded, “Who are you? Why did

you kidnap me?”

The doctors and nurses assured her, “Relax, Ms. Hinton. This is a hospital. You’re safe here.”

After confirming that it was indeed a hospital, Lacey heaved a sigh of relief.

“Why am I in a hospital? Who saved me?”

The doctor replied, “An anonymous hero sent you here, footed your hospital bills, and left.”

“Anonymous hero?” Lacey asked curiously. “Who is he? Did he leave any means of contacting him? I need to thank

him personally and return him the hospital bills.”

They shook their heads in unison. “I’m sorry, Ms. Hinton. He did not leave any contact information behind.”

“Oh,” Lacey said dejectedly. “You don’t even have a photograph?”

The hospital staff shook their heads once more.

Oh well.

Lacey laughed bitterly. It looks like I owe someone I don’t even know a favor.
