When Xienna looked at Alex, her gaze sharpened suddenly.
Danger!
Alex instantly noticed the change in the woman’s aura in front of him and was about to move away instinctively. However, just as he took a step, Xienna caught him with her hand at once.
Chains of invisible shackles bound his body.
Alex shouted, “What the hell are you trying to do?!”
Xienna said, “Don’t be so anxious. You’re no different than an ant to me. A guy who has refined a useless golden core would just become a waste at most in a few hundred years. In my long life, your existence is shorter than a meteor. But, you and my reincarnation’s body have given birth to four children, which gives rise to karma between us. I just want to completely cut off the karmic connection between us.”
With that, she condensed her fingers into a blade, with the power of laws entwined on the fingers.
Alex was shocked. “Wait a minute!”
However, Xienna was unmoved. Perhaps in the eyes of a big shot like her, Alex was really an existence no different than an ant.
Why would she care about what an ant was saying?
The divine blade that was entwined with the power of laws slammed into Alex’s cardiac acupoint.
“Ahhhh!” Alex screamed in pain as his body trembled all over.
The pain was excruciating. It was a hundred times worse than tearing his soul apart. His body trembled continuously in pain, but when he met Xienna’s gaze, she was calm as she said indifferently, “Endure it for a bit more, it will be over soon. I will compensate you a little for this.”
It was Dorothy’s face, but the temperament was cold and frosty, and she seemed to see human life as worthless, a mere trifle.
The Ancient Forbidden Spell of the Twelve Runes within Alex’s golden core continuously churned out a new flow of energy, hiding the abnormal movement within him tightly.
Finally, at a certain moment… Alex could feel as though something within his cardiac acupoint had shattered and broken.
A huge wave of grief surged spontaneously.
Having said that, she turned around and walked outside one step at a time.
The teleportation portal, which only Alex could control before this, slowly opened up again with the wave of her hand.
Alex, who was lying on the ground and still unable to move, roared, “I will definitely come for you! Just wait! You better protect her properly for me!”
“Well then, I will wait for that day!” Her tone seemed more like a perfunctory one.
Then, Xienna passed through the teleportation portal and disappeared.
***
An unknown amount of time passed.
Beatrice was a little worried, so he searched around Kala Temple and found Alex lying straight on the ground. For a moment, she panicked as she thought that Alex was dead!
