Chapter 805 The Faceless Thief Act (2)
She reappeared between the calm human and two bewildered humans, and her eyes were filled with icy might as she looked at Herman and Lillian.
"Stand down, both of you!" She ordered with an irrefutable tone.
Even Herman was shocked as he had never seen Alina so worked up or talking to him like this. Lillian was completely dumbfounded and slowly retracted her aura while she glanced at the human behind Alina, who had this strange smile on her face.
Both Herman and Lillian understood that Alina\'s strong reaction was the result of that woman\'s ambiguous words, which didn\'t make sense. But Herman was different from Lillian, and a very absurd notion surfaced in his mind as his old eyes went widened with utter disbelief.
Alina turned around as her entire aura of early-stage Qi Soul Manifestation Realm was locked on the human in front of her, "Who are you?" She questioned coldly, but the agitation was present in her voice as well as deep anticipation.
The human replied with a mysterious smile, "It doesn\'t matter who I am right now. What matter is if you want to leave with me or rote away here?"
Alina calmed her wildly beating heart, but it was impossible. She wanted to hear from this woman his name. It was completely unbearable for her. But still, she knew as long as she was able to leave this place, she might find him waiting for her out there, and this was enough to greatly kindled her spirit.
"Let\'s go!" She nodded without hesitation.
"Alina, you mustn\'t! We can\'t just trust her. What if it is a trap!" Herman strongly opposed her decision as he warily looked at the human with clear hostility.
"Don\'t stop me today, Grandpa, or you have to kill me to keep me here!" Alina\'s aura spiked again as she faced Herman with a fiery look in her eyes.
Suddenly blood trickled from her veil\'s edge, and Herman was shocked, "Stop burning your life force!" He quickly ordered her, but she kept releasing her aura as if she didn\'t hear him.
Leona already took their storage rings, so they no longer had any Qi stones or medicine to heal Alina. In this state, she was using her life force to use her cultivation. If she continues, she will no longer be able to cultivate or recover from this.
"Fine! Just stop your childish act! Let\'s leave!" Herman had no choice but to yield because he didn\'t want any harm to Alina despite his own stubbornness.
Then he coldly stared at the woman behind her, who was still smiling as if she was watching a show, "If you really are here to help us escape, then give her healing medicine or Qi stones so she can recover. She is in no condition to face danger."
Lillian, on the other hand, was watching everything with a baffled expression as she clearly had no clue what was going on, but one thing was clear, Alina appeared far more lively than usual, and her eyes were shining like they used to.
"Oh, I was about to but then think it would be uncouth for me to speak between your family drama." The woman playfully chuckled, and then she suddenly took off the storage ring from her finger and tossed it toward Herman, who caught it with surprise written on his face.
"Take whatever you want and follow me." She coolly stated before she started walking toward the exit.
Alina was also surprised but quickly started following her without caring about Herman or Lillian, and she was also on guard if Herman tried to do anything.
"Let\'s go." Herman sighed helplessly as he also started to follow them while he searched the ring for medicine for Alina. Lillian would naturally not be going to leave her precious princess\'s side and quickly followed.
"Are you working for \'him\' from the start?" Alina couldn\'t hide her curiosity anymore as she asked the human. She had also seen this woman many times, but she never expected she would be \'his\' pawn. If it was true, then she didn\'t dare to imagine just how deep \'his\' approach was.
"Why are you so sure that I\'m working for someone?" The human strangely questioned.
"Because you won\'t take such a risk just for pity\'s sake," Alina said matter-of-factly.
Herman, at this moment, handed Alina some pills, "Here, eat them. You will feel better. There are more, but taking them all will do more harm than good. You need to stop using your Qi if you want to recover."
Alina didn\'t reject and took the pills and said, "I\'m already feeling better, thank you, Grandpa."
"Who is that woman Grandpa Herman?" In a whispering tone, Lillian inquired, curiosity from Herman.
Herman replied with a complex yet dark expression, "She\'s nothing but bad news!"
At this moment, they all reached the end of the white hall, and in front of them was a white gate. This was the boundary that the hunters couldn\'t pass. No matter what they tried, they couldn\'t even put a dent in that gate.
The human woman, on the other hand, put her hand on the door and then started chanting something in gibberish language while a pendant on her neck suddenly shimmered in azure light, and then the gate also shimmered in azure glow before it made creaking sounds and started to open!
Behind that gate was a long tunnel, and at this moment, the human turned around and said sternly, "Now, everyone, if you don\'t want to alert the entire sect, you better follow my every step. One mishap, and you all can say goodbye to your freedom, and I also don\'t want to go through all that trouble to come here again!"
Alina nodded while Herman was still reluctant but agreed nevertheless, and they all started to follow behind the human!
