章 52: Conquered

"I... I..." Ruri, seeing that they remained in complete silence, became even more fearful, lowering her head and unable to speak anything completely.

Suddenly, a faint wave of Qi hit her incisively. Her head was abruptly lifted forward. She then looked directly into Alm's steady eyes.

"Why aren't you speaking? I don't remember to have taught some scared cat. Why did you do this?!" Alm asked harshly, looking into her eyes.

She swallowed hard. After a few cold seconds, she took a deep breath and began to speak. "I... I didn't want to be alone again."

"Do you know what you've done?" Alm snorted coldly. "My entire plan was destroyed because of your thoughtless act. When you distanced yourself from the clan with us, the seal was completely destroyed. The formation collapsed completely, and the being from the divine world was warned."

Ruri was completely petrified; she hadn't thought much and had just acted on her childish feelings.
