109 Ninth Imperial Uncle, Can You Let That Child Go?

She turned to look at Huo Junhan, who was sitting opposite her.

Shen Yaowei saw him looking down at the arena with his usual lazy and cold expression on his handsome face.

No other emotions could be seen.

“Ninth Imperial Uncle, can you let that child go?” Shen Yaowei asked softly.

Huo Junhan picked up his teacup and took a sip of tea. “The people who came here to challenge are all voluntarily signing life and death contracts. You can’t leave the arena unless you finish this beast fight.”

“But…” Shen Yaowei wanted to say something, but when she met Huo Junhan’s dark gaze, she shut her mouth.

Perhaps that child had some special strength.

Otherwise, he would not have come here to fight beasts.

Shen Yaowei told herself this in her heart and focused on the arena again.

Her face became more serious.

The thin child had no ability to counterattack in the hands of the bat demon beast. The bat demon beast treated him like a plaything, giving him a chance to escape and dodge. It flapped its wings and flew in the air, looking for tricky angles to attack the child. Every time, it found the right place to leave scars on his body.

Those scars were not fatal, but they hurt to look at.

This fight looked like a one-sided slaughter.

Shen Yaowei did not have the desire to save the world. However, as a flesh and blood person, she felt as if a fire was burning in her heart when she saw a thin child being tortured by that violent demon beast.

Most of the audience members present were cheering for the demon beasts, as if it was not their own kind who had been harmed.

This made Shen Yaowei feel the most uncomfortable.

Suddenly—

A large, cold hand pinched her cheek, forcing her to look away.

Seeing that Shen Yaowei’s eyes were slightly red, Huo Junhan pinched her mouth open with one hand and stuffed a peeled grape into her mouth with the other.

His slender fingers brushed past the girl’s soft lips, and the man’s eyes darkened.

“Little fool, you’re indeed hopelessly stupid.” Huo Junhan’s thin lips curled up. His smile was clearly dazzling, but his eyes were still cold. “This makes me look even more like an evil person.”

“Yaoyao doesn’t think so.” Shen Yaowei tried her best to control her emotions and swallowed the grape. She knew that Huo Junhan’s thoughts were different from ordinary people’s. It would take more than a day or two to lure him onto the right path. “Ninth Imperial Uncle, why did you build such a terrifying place?”

“I’m looking for fun,” Huo Junhan said casually.

“But there are many ways to have fun in this world.” Shen Yaoyao’s voice was small and sounded like she was trying to please him. “Yaoyao can also think of a way to make you happy.”

Huo Junhan sized up Shen Yaowei and sneered in disdain. “I’m not so low as to let a fool please me.”

Shen Yaowei immediately puffed up her cheeks. Just as she was about to refute Huo Junhan, she heard people exclaiming in the arena below.

She hurriedly looked down and saw that the bat demon beast had actually grabbed the child’s collar with its claws and lifted him into the air.

If he fell from such a high place, the child would be crippled, if not dead.

Shen Yaowei grabbed Huo Junhan’s sleeve and looked at him with big, misty eyes. “Ninth Imperial Uncle, don’t let that child die, okay?”

She knew it wasn’t good to be nosy.

However, she could not sit back and do nothing when such a thing happened in front of her.
