Chapter 220: Suppressing the Urge

In the sky, the blood-red blade sliced through the air as it descended downwards like a blade of execution. A flurry of dust and smoke flew behind.

Ashlyn opened her eyes as one of the seven runic seals broke off. Blue streams of light covered her black suit while her emerald eyes radiated blue currents of energy.

Some distance away from her, Amir and others had their hearts filled with dread. They believed the mission was easy for they only have to face lizards and collect the herbs.

But now, out of nowhere, without any warning, a foreign power was attacking them. They neither knew the identity of the attacker or the reason.

Amir, Joel, and Nellie experienced piercing pain in their very soul as the blade swept forward. They were not the target, and yet their blood veins started ripping apart. Blood gurgled out of their bodies like streams of water.
