420: Chapter 424 Betrayal

Li Xue just watched him quietly.

She didn't say anything.

Lu Chen asked.

"Can I call you Mom?"

Li Xue thought Lu Chen would reject her.

But when she heard that question, her eyes immediately filled with tears, and she wept with joy.

Timi also jumped up.

Suddenly.

Shani appeared behind him.

Lu Chen pretended not to notice him.

His expression immediately became one of great fear.

But Shani smiled at him and said,

"If she is your mother, then I am your father. Your grandfather is resting in his room. That is your younger sister, Timi."

"But we still have much to talk about. I suggest you eat first."

Lu Chen looked at Li Xue.

Li Xue gave him a reassuring look.

Lu Chen nodded.

He looked at Shani.

"Okay, Dad."

Hearing this, Shani immediately burst into laughter.

For some reason.

He also felt a surge of joy.

Timi walked over to Lu Chen's side.

She said softly,

"Hello, Big Brother. I'm Timi, your younger sister."

Lu Chen smiled at her.

"Hello, Timi."

Then he began to eat.

After dinner was over.

The whole family sat around a round table for a meeting.

During this time, they told him about their past.

But they skipped the part about them being Supernatural Beings.

Doing so would only put Lu Chen in a more dangerous situation later.

Lu Chen was surprised to find,

That they were actually so wealthy.

Yet now they were evading the pursuit of their enemies.

After the meeting ended.

Lu Chen went back to his room to sleep.

He lay on the bed.

Thinking about how he would become the mastermind behind the scenes in the future.

He needed a reputation powerful enough to shake the Three-Dimensional Space.

But he had to keep his true identity a secret forever.

A ruler behind the scenes whose true face no one had ever seen.

That kind of scenario.

Just thinking about it felt interesting.

Three days later.

Lu Chen began to talk with them more frequently.

They gradually became much more familiar with each other.

During this time.

He also met the person they had mentioned.

By now, they had been living in this underground space for three days.

They had never gone out.

They were waiting for something.

A kind of mask that would allow them to change their appearance to a certain extent.

This might give them a chance to escape with their lives.

Without being discovered.

But even with these masks, complete success was not guaranteed.

However, what else could they do?

They didn't tell these things to Lu Chen.

But Lu Chen heard it all.

Noah had arranged this a long time ago.

These masks would be placed somewhere in Namibia.

They would retrieve the masks from there and then leave.

Now they had Lu Chen with them.

And Lu Chen also had enemies.

Perhaps that group from the underworld had some Supernatural Being backing them.

Who knows?

So Noah was considering contacting that person.

To have him make another mask.

But what they didn't know,

Was that the person they relied on had already betrayed them.

The location where the masks were supposed to be delivered had been leaked to the enemy.

Hundreds of Supernatural Beings were already lying in wait there.

Preparing to ambush them.

Lu Chen was getting bored waiting.

Why not forge five masks himself?

The power of these masks would far surpass those on Earth.

And then let them use them.

But the problem was,

How should he give these things to his family?

He didn't want to modify their memories.

That day, Noah contacted that person again.

The person said he had made five masks before, one of which was for someone else.

He would give that mask to them.

They could come to pick them up tomorrow.

Noah told this good news to his family.

Timi was the happiest.

She couldn't wait any longer.

This place was practically like a prison.

But just then, Noah's phone rang.

The other party said that the person knew it was an emergency and had already placed the items at the designated location.

This call was made by Lu Chen.

He did this to inform them that the call records had been leaked.

That person had leaked their location.

Supernatural Beings used encrypted phones.

Unless someone betrayed them.

Otherwise, no one could track their call records.

Noah felt this call was a bit strange.

But he had no choice.

He had to leave.

Soon, the five of them came out of the house.

And reached the surface.

It was already night.

They began walking toward that place.

It was located in the center of the Namibian forest.

At the tallest tree.

It would take about two hours on foot.

Shani carried Timi on his back.

So they could move faster.

But then they remembered.

Lu Chen was also an ordinary person.

Noah reached out his hand to Lu Chen.

Lu Chen didn't stand on ceremony.

After all, this old man was his grandfather.

He hadn't carried him when he was a child.

He should carry him now.

They needed to move quickly now.

But Lu Chen knew.

That place was already completely surrounded by hundreds of little bugs.

Lu Chen snorted coldly.

He snapped his fingers.

All 158 people hiding in various locations died instantly.

As if a sharp blade had instantly slit their throats.

They didn't even have a chance to blink.

All of them lost their lives.

Now his family could leave this place without any worries.

Lu Chen knew there were no masks.

That person had lied to them.

Generally speaking,

Supernatural Beings would not violate the oaths they had sworn.

But perhaps forced by circumstances,

The other party did so anyway.
