Linda rolled her eyes after seeing what happened to the girls. She didn't really care that the girls had hurt themselves. As long as finally she had her way and she still had the bottle of potion in her possession, she really didn't care about the rest of the things. They mattered less to her. She looked at the small bottle of potion in her hand again and smiled. This was the jackpot. This was all her family needed. If her father was able to use this potion to heal people, then her father would be the most popular man in the whole of Emerald City. She wouldn't only be the beautiful girl in university anymore, but being known as the only daughter of the great healer would be the greatest perk she could ever achieve in her entire life. The henchmen bowed as soon as they saw her advancing. One of the maids had caught a sight of her and had run inside to announce her arrival to her father. When she walked into the well-lit and opulent living room, her father was already standing in th
The whole place almost turned upside down when the cult doctor said this. But the most affected person by the situation was first in denial. Linda didn't believe what the doctor had just said. It just made no sense. Was she not right there? She was exactly right there in the presence of Cory when Cory had handed the bottle of cure to Lila. There must have been a reason why Lila had taken off to her heels and tried to outrun them. She must have done that because she also believed that this was the cure to the diseases. Then what the hell was the doctor talking about? Was he trying to say these things to scare her and her father? Or does he have some politics up his sleeve, which he wanted to use to take the bottle from them and claim it as his?Linda had been exposed to a couple of things just these few days on the island. Her perception had changed, and she was beginning to see a lot of things in a newer light. She didn't have any reason to believe what the doctor had just said. I
Her eyes were reaching out of her sockets, literally. It looked like her eyes had been pushed out of the sockets, and then two threads from inside the sockets of both eyes were making the eyes droop towards the ground. The balls and pulpils of her eyes were no longer where they ought to be. They were now over her nose, hanging by two threads from the sockets and over the nose. It would seem as though her eyes had turned into a swing of a sort. How was she supposed to explain this? What the hell was happening to her. She was freaking out and screaming. She couldn't even cry at this point. Naturally, when she's scared, she would just confide in tears. But right now, she was scared to let tears flow from her eyes. She had no idea what kind of trouble that would cause her on top of this unbelievable sight. "What is this happening to my precious daughter?! Do something about it. Don't just stand there!!!" Havill screamed so loudly that his lungs were about to pop off. He ran to the do
Linda and her father were as still as a hill. They couldn't even make a sound. They couldn't see each other. Talking about seeing, Linda's eyes were drooping over her breasts at this point. It seemed as though the poison continued to lower the thread of the eyes down and down until perhaps it would get to the soles of her legs. This really didn't matter to her yet because the room was too dark for either of them to see each other. Before they were looked inside this room by the two hefty henchmen, they had seen clearly that it was super bright outside. It was noon. How come when they were locked in here, it was extremely dark? They had not been taken to an underground location. In fact, the underground location they had just come from was well lit and brighter than this. Although she couldn't use her eyes well, Linda could still tell this much that this was a very dark room. "Why is it so dark in here?" She asked her father, looking in the only direction she could afford. Down.
"We must go right away." One of the senators stood up and was headed towards the door. "I'm sorry we can't." The doctor suddenly stepped into the way of the senator. The senator looked so offended and pissed out of his mind. He was staring at the doctor as though the doctor was a piece of garbage who ought not to stand in his presence, let alone lift his gaze to look at him. He scoffed and turned to look at the rest of the senators behind him. "What the hell is wrong with these minions? Is it really our fault that we have indulged them and made them feel so comfortable in our midst?" The senator sounded very judgemental as he rolled those words out. He really didn't care that the doctor could hear him. The senators didn't care about anything at all. They don't care about other people other than themselves. As long as things are going their way, they wouldn't care less to do whatever they thought to be okay. "Now, move out of my way before I rip you into shreds!" The senator thre
Anna's eyes slowly opened. When her eyes opened, she felt fatigue, a pool of fatigue washing all over her body. She shut her eyes again to be certain what the problem could be. She slowly opened her eyes again, confiding in the act of precision and timing. Yet the feeling lingered. The fatigued remained. If there was anything, it even became heavier. She tried to roll in bed to the other side, but she felt extremely weak. She had no idea what was happening to her. Rolling on her stomach, she tried to heave her body to a comfortable position, but nothing seemed to work for her. She fell back on her face in bed and started to grunt. "What the hell is happening to me?" She muttered, seeking to understand what the problem might be. The moment when she rolled from one end of the bed to the other, things were beginning to ease gradually. The fatigue and weariness were beginning to wear off. This time, her mind was clearing out gradually. There was a room in her mind to house as many w
Lord Theo, who was already exhausted from the errands and worries affiliated with the plot they were carrying out, raised his head slowly to look at his daughter, who was fired up by what she was saying. "What are you talking about, Anna? Please go back to bed. You need it." The man dismissed causally as though he had expected her to be up by now. At this point, Anna really didn't know what to feel. She wished that she would be able to choose her feelings, but she couldn't. There was a great measure of disappointment in what she was feeling at that moment. And there was something else, too. Something which she couldn't really reach. She wanted to sigh, but because she was huffing and puffing, she was even having a hard time catching her breath. "Answer my question, father." Her voice became even louder this time. She was trying to make it obvious to him that she wasn't here to joke around. She was here to talk about and review what was bothering her the most. It would be a great
Standing in front of the heap of dead warlords, Cory shut his eyes and took in all the air of victory around him. He had to be sincere with himself. There might still be a lot of spiritual figures out there in the open waiting to cause another havoc or rain another wave of terror. He had never had any reason to be scared of them. Although one of the reasons why he had come to the island was just to be wary of them. Right now, after killing all these warlords, he couldn't help but come to a conclusion that even if he was running from trouble, trouble would still find him. Henceforth, the determination to carry on with this new level of task overwhelmed him. He had unintentionally unlocked another realm and phase of challenges that he could never let anyone else figure out except himself. All his life, he had learned how to keep such big secrets. How could he be referred to as the Immortal Dao if he didn't know how to be exclusive with some of the things that have been haunting him
