"If you are going to kill him," he said, eyes narrowing, "then just give him to me. I have a special place for him."
Yu Xi turned to his grandfather, his eyes still faintly glowing. "I don't see why you can't take him with you."
Eros nodded, and for a fleeting moment, a glint of something sinister flashed in his gaze.
Later, when they told Jian Rui, he agreed without hesitation. Handing Lord Leung to Eros was handing him to the devil himself. Whatever torment Yu Xi had inflicted was nothing compared to what Eros could do.
