âFirst Elder, what should we do with this woman now?â Dragon Flame asks with a frown along his face.
Faint and unemotional in his reply, First Elderâs gaze showed he was looking at nothing more than a piece of garbage: âThe queenâs stuff is back in our hands now so thereâs no reason to keep her alive. Make sure she suffers a lot for what she did, I donât want to make it too pleasing.â
Yun Ruo Xi had just finished climbing back up to flee again when she overheard that statement. Immediately, a look of horror filled that face.
These people... they really want to kill me?
âNo!â She cries instinctively.
I donât want to die!
Stumbling back to gain space, tears filled that face to make her all the more pitiful. If it were those from the Celestial Palace, they would surely take notice and lend a hand. However, these were members of the Demon Realm. Even if the soldiers here didnât witness the events of the past in person, they could still imagine the heart wrenching scenes based on the details they got today.
âSince you like to act all pitiful so much then I will make sure you canât ever do it again.â
Swish!!
Following a casual wave of his hand, a sword swiftly flashed across Yun Ruo xiâs face. The latter didnât react at first, but as the tingling sensation gradually came through, thatâs when the woman noticed the slight warmth trickling down the cheek.
âMy face, AHHHH! My face!â She howls like a banshee, causing those nearest to flinch at the intense screech.
Nevertheless, the sound didnât hinder the demon soldiers from enacting their rage at this old witch. They are frustrated and angry as well, but for a different reason of the Demon Realm being sealed away for a millennium.
âScram!â Suddenly, a howling roar of intense rage rocked the air, sending the group back and clearing an area away from the screaming woman.
Even so, itâs already too late for the old witch. Once freed and able to look up again, that face had already been ruined with plenty of bruises and blood. Thereâs nothing left to show what her true contour was before this.
âRuo Xi!â Keeper Ling went red in the eyes after finding the terrible state the old witch was in.
âHow are you Ruo Xi? Answer me quickly!â
Looking up in a dazed like manner due to how much hurt she suffered: âKeeper Ling... are you here to save me?â
âI have come Ruo Xi, Iâm sorry for being so late. Donât be afraid. Now that Iâm here no one can hurt you.â Flashing a cold frosted glint in those old eyes towards the demons, âThey canât do anything to you, and sooner or later, I will make them pay.â
Going quiet for a few seconds, the old witch simply stared upwards before breaking out into a miserable cry of agonizing pain.
âKeeper Ling... Healer Yu wants to kill me so I got scared and fled out here. I didnât want to die before being able to save the world, but during my escape, these demons caught me halfway and thatâs when I met this man.â That said, she points to Winger, âHe snatched my amulet away, then shamelessly claimed it belongs to Bai Yan. I wanted to take it back, but then they tried to kill me....â
Growing increasingly irate along the face after finding the missing amulet along the girlâs neck: âBai Yan is a traitor to humanity so how can she be worthy of holding the amulet? Theyâre only jealous of you and wants to steal whatâs yours. Donât worry, they can never do that because its your destiny to own it!â
