Chapitre 1939: Another Poison

The immediate anger from the First Elder brought upon Alex a feeling of suffocation as he was trapped by a violent aura on all sides.

Golden energy encircled the woman's fists, slowly coalescing to take some form. Before it could fully take form, however, the power vanished.

The golden energy disappeared and all that was left in the silent room was Alex who tried his best to not pant in front of all the Elders.

The First Elder turned toward the sect masters and slowly moved back, not daring to utter a single word.

Alex looked toward the sect masters too, who seemed not pleased with what had just happened.

"Talking back to an Elder, that's room for punishment," one of the sect masters said.

Alex nodded, accepting that he needed to be punished. But he didn't apologize. He had no wish to say sorry to the woman who had tried to kill him and then had managed to kill his friend.
