Twenty minutes have passed, Mike and Lucas were still crying. Everyone else was around them. Some of them were crying while some were not. But everyone had a sad expression. Even though they only knew Luke for few hours, they simply couldn't smile at such a terrible situation.
"Mike!" But after twenty minutes, Mike suddenly fell unconscious. His body slides from Lucas's body and fell to the ground. Jenny shouted from behind and rushed near him. At this moment, Mike's wrist was on Lucas's hand.
When Lucas held his wrist, the fear struck his heart. His body started shaking vigorously. He had just lost his brother and now even his best friend/brother-in-law's heart isn't beating. For a moment, not a single sound could come out of his mouth.
But soon, his mind relaxed as he found the blood flow was still ongoing but extremely slow rate.
"Mike, what happened to you?" Jenny caught Mike in her embrace and her hand fell on his heart. She couldn't feel the heartbeat for a long time. She was also shaking with fear like Lucas. Mike death's was now the greatest fear in her heart.
But just like Lucas, she also found his heartbeat wasn't gone but extremely slow. At this moment, Scarlet spoke from behind "He has lost his life force."
"Huh?" Everyone looked at her with surprise but the fear in Jenny's heart grew. She tried to take out her phone and muttered "I… I will call my dad. He muuust havvve a solution."
Her voice was shuttering in fear. Lifeforce is not a simple topic. Normally, it's not possible to increase someone's lifespan without cultivation. But her father was living for a long time even before the cultivation. She thought he must have something that can increase Mike's lifespan.
"No use! He only has ten minutes left. If he hadn't spent twenty minutes weeping for the dead guy, you could have called for help." Scarlet spoke in a cold tone. She knew Mike's lifespan was low from the start. But she didn't speak or rather her master didn't let her speak. After all, it was her master who told her about Mike's lifespan in the first place.
"You! You knew this from the start. You could've told me about it sooner." Jenny's eyes turned red in anger. She stood up and yelled at Scarlet's face.
"I didn't want to disturb a crying man. And, shouldn't you find your lover's situation on your own? Are you so useless that you need help for everything?" Although Scarlet knew she wasn't the one to find out about it either, she didn't let go of a chance to ridicule Jenny.
Jenny clenched her hands hard but couldn't utter a single word. Yes, she felt extremely useless at this moment. Scarlet was also able to burst powerful strength while fighting against Daniel than her. Of course, she didn't know that power was from Scarlet's master.
"Can you save him?" Jenny's voice was hoarse and filled with hesitation. She was helpless in this situation. So, even if Scarlet was a complete bitch, Jenny still hoped that bitch can help Mike.
"Help him? ...…. Of course, I can. But what can I get by helping him?" Scarlet made a cunning smile as she spoke. Her eyes were filled with intense hostility towards Jenny.
"You? I thought you liked him. Why are you asking for something to help someone you like?" Jenny couldn't help but get frustrated at her.
"For your information, I don't like him. And as I said, I am helping him to recover his lifespan. I am giving something important to me. Do you think I can do it for charity?" Just when Jenny was about to say something, Scarlet continued "But I can help him get better by sharing my lifespan with him on two conditions."
"What do you want?" Jenny asked with vigilance in her eyes.
"First, kneel in front of me and kowtow three times! Second, go to the ceiling of your house and shout 'I am a slut' sixty times. If you can do it, then I will help him. But make your decision fast, he only has less than eight minutes now." Scarlet smirked with a satisfying smile on her face. There was utmost arrogance and pride in her eyes as she looked at Jenny.
"You bitch! Do you have no feelings towards him even though he was a childhood friend? How can you be so shameless? You think life is a toy that you can play with." Suddenly, Lucas appeared in front of Scarlet, yelling at her face. His tears were already dried but those eyes were still red.
"Boy, don't think that you have lost your brother means I will just sit and let you insult me? Even if I love Mike, so what? I don't want to share him with any other women. After all, I am giving up my virginity to save him."
"But, I don't mind if he has the relationship with sluts. If she can admit that she is a slut, I will help him otherwise, I don't care." Scarlet pushed Lucas to the ground and spoke.
"You..."
"Shut up, Lucas!" Suddenly, an angry roar came from Jenny's mouth. After Jenny spoke, Lucas turned silent while clenching his hand.
Jenny released a deep breath and spoke while looking at Scarlet "I will do it. But, if anything happens to Mike, I promise your Stagroar family will not see tomorrow's morning."
There was deep killing intent in her words. When everyone heard her, they didn't know whether she was mad or confident. Only Scarlet, Lucas, and Sunny knew her words were completely true. Scarlet narrowed her eyes but soon, a creepy smile appeared on her face "Knee and kowtow!"
Jenny slowly kneeled down and kowtow three times in front of her. Each time she smashes her head on the ground, deep hatred emerged in her heart. But, whenever that happened, Mike's image appears in her mind and that hatred melts away.
Scarlet passed by her, while she was kowtowing the third time, and picked up Mike. While moving towards the home, Scarlet spoke "I want to hear those words from the house. I hope you will be loud otherwise, I will immediately stop."
After saying so, she took Mike towards the house while Jenny slowly stood up. At this moment, Alexa looked at Scarlet's back with a complicated expression. She didn't know why but she felt Scarlet has changed a lot.
"Jenny, why are you doing this? We can find another way to save him, right? You can ask your dad. Why are you humiliating yourself like this? I don't want to lose another person close to me but I don't want you to go through all that."
"She loves Mike, right? There is no way she would left Mike without helping him, right? She is just jealous that you are his most beloved girl. She just wants to show off and humiliate you. Don't do this, please! Mike will never be able to forgive himself if he learns what you've gone through. I know him. He would definitely hate himself if you do this." Lucas caught her hand and tried to convince her.
Few drops of tears once again filled his eyes as he spoke more.
Suddenly, Jenny raised her hand and fondles his hair. After a short sigh, she spoke "You already know how much sad he is just because he doesn't know how to face Lauren. I know you don't want Mike to feel worse."
"But, if none of you tell him anything, would he know?" When she said that, her eyes fell on others. Her words shocked them and she continued "Scarlet loves Mike and definitely won't tell him. After all, if she does, he will hate her. So, as long as none of you speak anything about this, he wouldn't know, right?"
"But, why do you have to go through all this? We can wait, right. She might give up and save him even if you don't do it." Lucas covered his eyes with his hands and spoke. He has pressed two sides of his forehead hard by his hands while speaking.
"Lucas, you don't have any experience, so you don't know anything about it. But one day when you fell in love with someone, you will do everything for her. And, that is true love. In true love, I am willing to do everything for him. But her love is selfish."
"She doesn't care about Mike's dream or anything. She is just a proud and arrogant girl. And, her pride and arrogance might come in the way to save Mike. If that happens, Mike will die. I am not doing this for Mike to know how much I love him. I am not doing this because I am a slut."
"I am simply doing this because I love him. Just as you said, she might save him. I can take risks for everything. But I can never take risks for a person I love the most. I can't take any risk when it comes to Mike's life."
Saying so, she slowly walked towards the home. She entered the house and found Mike and Scarlet on the second floor. She didn't speak or peek. She directly went to the top and stood at the corner. Looking at the beautiful sunset, she murmured "People are really foolish in love, aren't they?"
"I thought I would be able to improve my cultivation if I will be together with you. I thought I was only attracted to you because of your big cock. But, it turns out everything is wrong. I love you, Mike. I truly love you. And, I want to do the same. I will never let anything happen to you."
After that, she wiped her tears and finally shouted "I AM A SLUT."
