章節 254: Lashed Out

The sharp-eyed young man was known by many as Lucien Lao, the second in line to the Lao Clan.

In truth, the Lao Clan was not one of the Sixth Order Clans of the Core Region. Or rather, just a few hundred years ago, it wasn't. It's a long story irrelevant to the matters at hand, but the short of it was that Throne Byrin, after the Lao Clan was pushed into a corner, succeeded in grasping the Throne of a Clan on the verge of becoming a Half-Step Seventh Order Clan… The most powerful Clan of the Core Region – the Ember Clan.

Thanks to his brother, not just the Lao Clan, but he as Throne Byrin's younger sibling, benefitted greatly. There were countless things he had seen in his young life and he could be considered to be well versed in the matters of the world. But even he couldn't make heads or tails of the scene before him.

Despite very clearly seeing that Ryu was heavily injured, he still hesitated to take a step forward.
