The Lord's Empire (Part 3)

Chapter 1497-1501

Chapter 1497: Mirror

“Liu Zhangmen, you’d best hand over the Void Mirror or we’ll destroy your Liu family. You’re not a match for us anymore,” a savage-looking gray-robed elder shouted at a scholarly-looking middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man looked quite hesitant, but seeing the dead people around him, he gritted his teeth and said, “I can give you the Void Mirror, but let these people go first.”

The savage-looking elder thought about it before agreeing, and he had everyone else stop.

The middle-aged man, Liu Zhangmen, gathered the remaining people from the Liu family and said in pain, “Hurry up and leave, run as far as you can. The Liu family won’t survive this time; I’ll stay here and stall them.”

“Father, we won’t go! We’re willing to live and die with the Liu family,” a valiant-looking young man said in a loud voice. He was the Liu family’s eldest son, Liu Ming.

Liu Zhangmen felt quite angry as he cursed, “Idiot! Do you want the Liu family to perish? What’s the point of everyone dying here?”

A beautiful and virtuous-looking woman, the Liu family’s head madam Zhang Qingli, said tearily, “We need to listen to your father and hurry and leave. We can rebuild the Liu family in the future.”

“That’s right! I don’t want to die here for nothing; I haven’t enjoyed myself yet,” a drunken young man cried out in terror; he was the Liu family’s second young master.

A slim and flirtatious-looking woman said sorrowfully, “We should listen to your father and the big madam; as long as we live, the Liu family will still have hope.”

She was the Liu family’s second madam and was called He Dimei, and she was hugging a scared little girl.

“Mm, as long as we stay alive, we’ll have more chances in the future. When that time comes, it won’t be too late to take revenge. It’s better than dying for nothing here,” a valiant-looking woman said; she was the Liu family’s third madam, Xi Yali.

There was also a gentle-looking woman who continuously wept and held a baby boy. She did not say anything, and she was the Liu family’s fourth madam, Luo Ali.

There were some other people, bodyguards, and servants gathered around them. They all looked quite fearful and some of them were covered in blood. They waited for the Liu family to make their decision, but they naturally did not want to die.

“I’m letting you all leave so you’d best be quick, or else you’ll all die here,” the savage-looking elder called out in annoyance.

Liu Zhangmen had everyone else run away while he stayed behind by himself.

The savage-looking was worried that someone might have taken the Void Mirror away, so he said, “Take out the Void Mirror for me to see.”

Liu Zhangmen understood what the savage-looking elder was thinking, and he took out a beautiful mirror made of crystal. It was 15 centimeters long and there were cloud inscriptions carved around it. The mirror was incredibly smooth and looked quite simple, and it contained a void aura.

The savage-looking elder gave a pleased smile and stretched out his hand as he said, “Then give me the mirror now.”

Liu Zhangmen refused, saying, “The Liu family’s people haven’t gone very far yet; I can’t give it to you yet.”

The savage-looking elder looked quite disdainful and looked at one of his underlings. That underling shot out and stabbed his dagger into Liu Zhangmen’s heart, and Liu Zhangmen died with a shocked expression on his face.
