Chapter 729 - 729:

"I am really going to enjoy it, you know," Lucifer told Xaen, walking casually towards Xaen.

"You really tricked me this time," Xaen said as he kept stepping back. Blood droplets kept falling on the ground. 

"Where is Eve? I'm asking you one last time! After this, every time I repeat the question, I'll cut a part of your body. If you want to stay intact, you better be fast," Lucifer warned Xaen.

Even though he was acting like he wasn't desperate for the answer, it wasn't the case. His Energy Negation was too heavy on his body. It was like a black hole that kept sucking his energy at a rapid speed, mostly because it was a corrupt skill. 

"You want an answer? I have no reason to hide it. She is in a secret base of mine along with your grandpa. There's only one way to enter the base, that is if I take you through my portal," Xaen explained. 

"Tell me the location."

"You think you can find the location without my help? I've set up a system around my base. As soon as anyone is detected to be moving towards the place, the entire thing will explode."

"The place also has no door. The only way to even get close to that place is through my Portals.*

"It seems like I have no other choice but to let you use it once then."

Hearing Lucifer's words, a glint flashed in the eyes of Xaen. 

"If you think that's what I was going to say, then you are wrong." Lucifer let out, waving his fingers again. 

A blade came out of nowhere, slicing the left wrist of Xaen's hands just like Franci had done with him. 

Argh~

Xaen groaned in pain. He Teleported once again, appearing behind Lucifer. 

Instead of running away from Lucifer, he decided to attack him instead. He knew that running away wasn't an option anymore. 

The door was also locked, so he couldn't even open it. 

He appeared near a chair and held it firmly before disappearing again. 

Before Lucifer could locate him, he appeared behind him, swinging the chair.

Thud~

The chair smashed on the head of Lucifer with enough force to make his head bleed. His body flew back, falling far away. 

Lucifer rubbed the back of his head, standing up. His blood had covered his beautiful silver hair, leaving a darker spot behind him. 

"Don't tell me you really thought that's the best choice of action?" he asked Xaen, who once again disappeared. 

He once again appeared behind Lucifer, prepared to hit him. However, this time Lucifer expected it. He turned around, grabbing the chair with his left hand. The chair started decaying. 

With his other hand, he grabbed the throat of Xaen; however, Xaen disappeared again. 

A kick landed on the neck of Lucifer, making him lose balance. 

"So your plan is to force me to kill you? Or do you think I won't kill you because I need my answers?"

"I think I've understood you to some extent. That girl is special to you. You won't kill me until you know where she is."

"And you think you can kill me because of that?" Lucifer asked, frowning. 

"Not at all. Only an idiot would think they can kill you with just measly Teleportation."

"Then what was your plan?" Lucifer asked, frowning. "You just want to waste my time?"

Just as Lucifer finished asking his question, his frown deepened as he noticed the smirk on the face of Xaen before he disappeared once again. 

"Y-" he couldn't even speak his next word before a loud noise filled the entire hall. 

The locked door broke open as a bulky man stepped inside the hall. 

The door was open, giving Xaen the sight g outside. 

Xaen Teleported outside the room and kept teleporting as he ran away. 

"No!" Lucifer ran behind Xaen, but it was too late. The man was gone. 

Flame of anger was ignited in his heart. 

"Arghh!" He roared out loud like he was going crazy. After much scheming, he had managed to trap Xaen, but the guy had run away. 

"You! You made him run!" Lucifer glared at the man who had barged inside. 

A bulky man was standing before Lucifer with his hands on his waist. The man had long dark hair and a frown on his face. There were a couple of scars on his face as well. 

"I don't know what you're talking about, but what I do know is that you're not the same Alex I knew. You've lost your sanity. I watched you kill Franci and invite Xaen here. I personally came to take you down!"

"Teacher Yovann, you don't understand. It's all because of Dean Xaen! He caused all this!" Cassius chimed in weakly. 

"I don't know what he did and what he didn't. All I know is that my friend Franci was killed by him. Someone who can kill his own teacher? He doesn't deserve to live!" Yovann declared. 

"I decide who deserves to live and who doesn't!" Lucifer roared. He was already angry that Xaen had run away because of Yovann, but now this man was threatening him?

"When I invited you to join my family, I thought you would be a great man when you become older. Who knew I was so wrong. It's time I rectify my mistake of not being there when you killed Franci!'

Yovann clenched his fist, smacking them together. 

Lucifer stood before Yovann like a devil reincarnate. He was completely engulfed in anger, so much so that he wasn't thinking straight. He couldn't kill Yovann instantly, but now he wanted to hurt Yovann. 

He flew towards Yovann. Yovann jerked his shoulders, prepared for the clash. 

"In the yearly tests, we went easy on you. But this time we won't. You aren't a student today! You are an enemy, and that's how you'll be treated!"

He moved his right shoulder back, gathering momentum. He wanted to destroy Lucifer with this one punch itself. He didn't want to hold anything back.

Even Lucifer wasn't going to hold back. 

His fist clashed with the fist of Yovann. Just the pressure from the impact was enough to create a windstorm inside the hall. Chairs flew with the wind. Even Cassius dropped to the ground, unable to stand up. 

Woosh~

A figure could be seen flying back. Yovann flew out the ball, crashing on the wall. 

Lucifer flew to Yovann, grabbing him by the neck before smashing him on the floor.. An enormous crater appeared under the two of them, but Lucifer didn't stop.
