""Past, reappear!"
Sheila released a type of ’ti’ magic, copying the images of past events that occurred in this cell into her mind.
"This?!"
The next mont, Sheila’s eyes widened in shock and fury, "Beasts, worse than beasts!"
Sheila was a cold person, but her nature was pure.
She was sowhat like an executioner, who, although also kills when executing prisoners, it’s just a job, a profession, and they are not murderers.
It was the sa with Sheila, if Bailuo asked her to kill, she would do so without hesitation.
But to make Sheila harm the innocent? Sheila would certainly not do so, as she was not bloodthirsty.
However, the events that transpired within this cell, those tortured, barely living figures, overturned Sheila’s understanding of ’cruelty.’
"Good, very good."
Sheila didn’t know who Iotina was, nor why Bailuo went out of his way to rescue her.
However, based on what Sheila knew about Brother Bai Luo, Iotina must now be considered one of their own, and thus, it was Sheila’s duty to seek revenge for her own people.
"Your Majesty..."
Sheila closed her eyes, silently praying to Bailuo, asking for his instruction.
And Bailuo’s reply was simple —— Do not let them die too easily.
"Sheila, understood."
With eyes open, Sheila’s expression grew even colder, "You bring fear and despair to others."
"That’s your hobby, building your joy upon the pain of others."
Sheila’s body gradually rged with the shadows, and then, the shadow on the wall suddenly split its mouth into a sinister smile, "Now, let you get a taste of the sa flavor..."
·
"Lilith, Lilith, co here quickly!"
Bailuo placed the girl in the Avalon Holy Pond, feeling the power of the curse on her, while calling for Lilith to release healing magic on her, a double treatnt.
"Sizzle!"
Dark blood flowed from the girl’s body, and the golden holy water turned into flas, burning away the evil presence completely.
"What’s her condition?"
"Physical damage," Lilith closed her eyes and saw Iotina’s ordeal, saying, "They stuffed red-hot charcoal down her throat."
"..."
Bailuo’s brow furrowed slightly, "Who did it?"
"A pair of human father and daughter."
"Why?"
"They coveted her voice and wanted to obtain it..."
Lilith told Bailuo everything Iotina knew, and he, unsurprised, said, "Hiruen is such a place; I’ve been there in the early years, those families, each sicker than the last."
The essence of Bailuo’s cleansing operation against Hiruen was directed at the upper echelons of society.
To rid the Ancient City of these dregs and to rebuild it afresh.
"The voice, how to obtain it?"
Bailuo looked at Lilith, then at the curse overflowing from Iotina, "Miracle Power, whose Miracle Power is this, Count Thorn?"
Bailuo had never clashed with Count Thorn and was not familiar with his Miracle Power.
But this power didn’t feel like it ca from Count Thorn.
According to his uncle, Count Thorn’s miracle was part of the Northbound Land camp, but this curse, Bailuo knew too well with Lyon, it was indeed the Miracle Power of the foolish old feast.
"Lord of the White Birch Trees!"
No need to guess anymore, Bailuo was almost certain who cursed Iotina: "Has he involved himself in the ranks of the Ancient City’s elite?"
"It’s not that serious."
Lilith leaned in, keenly sensing the curse power escaping from Iotina, "It’s a small amount, and it’s not from the Miracle Entity itself, it’s just a curse from a Child of Miracle."
"If it was a curse from the Lord of the White Birch Trees himself, just this Holy Water Pool might not easily break it."
The Lord of the White Birch Trees probably scattered seeds across dozens, if not hundreds of towns, leaving behind special Miracle Seals by his Miracle Citizens.
After all, no one would know that Iotina was a Miracle.
If the Lord of the White Birch Trees knew, he wouldn’t just watch her die.
"She wasn’t targeted, just accidentally affected," Bailuo said, "But we must consider the worst-case scenario."
"Relying on just Lyon isn’t safe enough, Lilith, you and Sherri go to the Ancient City as well."
Bailuo instructed Sherri and Lilith to head to the Ancient City together and to set up a defense on the outskirts, ready to respond to any involvent by the Lord of the White Birch Trees.
"Don’t worry, Master."
Lilith confidently said, "Together with Sherri, even if a Miracle Entity of the Third Awakening cos personally, we won’t be afraid."
"Hmm."
Bailuo: "Stay safe."
Lilith and Sherri imdiately set off, with the forr transforming into her fairy form and landing on Sherri’s head.
"Boom!"
The Eight-legged Divine Steed summoned the Rainbow Bridge, and Sherri, with Lilith, entered the Rainbow Dinsion.
Your adventure continues at empire
"With the holy covenant in place, the Lord of the Birch Trees couldn’t possibly dispatch Miracle Troop Types above Heroic Level, and the Ancient City isn’t his territory, which doesn’t comply with international rules," said Sherri.
As for the girl, with the protection of Avalon World, Iotina was already safe.
"Feiya?"
The golden gate opened, and the senior sister appeared before Bai Luo. She was dressed in a golden queen’s gown, her fair feet stepping onto the pool water.
"She’s very special."
"You, you can tell this?"
It was rare for the senior sister to give such a comnt, but looking at Iotina lying peacefully in the Holy Water Pool, she couldn’t help but express, "I can’t point out what’s special about her, I just feel she’s different from others."
[You saved her, and although she hasn’t awakened yet, she has no ho to return to. If you take her in, she won’t go anywhere else.]
[The wounds of the soul need a special way to heal. Sing boldly, welco the Empire’s Songstress with applause and cheers.]
[Iotina]
Contract: Bailuo Yatun
Type: Miracle Creature
Level: Lower Tier
Faction: Four Sages Corridor
Ability: Unawakened
thod of Awakening: Heal the wounds of the soul, let her sing once more under the gaze of countless people.
"Although she hasn’t been awakened yet, she’s mine," Bai Luo declared, unafraid of the senior sister misunderstanding. Isefia surely understood what he ant: "You saved her because she is a miracle?"
"How could I have discovered her if not for the guidance to seek miracles?"
Without the Black Leather Book, Bai Luo would certainly not have noticed Iotina, and she would have undoubtedly been dood.
"She is..."
"A Miracle Creature."
"A person?"
The senior sister was surprised: "Is it a situation like Xiao Bai’s?"
"I almost know how to awaken her," Bai Luo said. "This girl has suffered a trauma of the soul. When she wakes up, let know, Feiya, and I will awaken."
After speaking, Bai Luo sat by the Holy Water Pool and closed his eyes, focusing all his energy on the hunter’s body that was currently seeking the ninth page of miracles.
"I can ditate here too," said the senior sister. "Leave it to ."
"Hmm."
The entity was like it had fallen asleep, while Bai Luo, following the instructions of the Black Leather Book, located this villa. "Is the miracle of the ninth page here?"
[Anyone can find it, but even if you find it, you might not be able to obtain it.]
[Earn their heartfelt loyalty, only then will you qualify to beco the new owner of miracles. Go, beco their king.]
"Hmm?"
At that mont, Old Luwei, who was ditating with his eyes closed inside the villa, opened his eyes: "Soone is coming."
"What?"
The Ghost Princess was the first to speak, "Do we have enemies?"
"I don’t know."
Grandpa Luwei did not possess Miracle Power, so he couldn’t sense the enemy, but as a Miracle Descendant with the bloodline power inherited from his ancestors, he had a perception akin to foreseeing the future.
"I haven’t detected any intent to kill."
"He’s arrived."
As the words landed, Rakshasa saw Bai Luo appear in the courtyard of the villa.
Yaksha held three throwing stars between her fingers, while Old Luwei hurriedly said, "Girl, don’t be rash. We don’t know if he’s friend or foe; we mustn’t attack rashly."
"Yes."
Yaksha moved her hand behind her back but still clutched the throwing stars.
"Take good care of the old master, big sister."
Asura, being the eldest son in the house, took the lead, with Yellow Spring following closely behind, and then ca Rakshasa, who quickly leaped to a higher position, looking down at the hall from an elevated vantage point.
"Huh?"
As Bai Luo entered, Yellow Spring and Asura’s expressions grew serious, but the Ghost Princess and Old Luwei looked at him with unfazed eyes.
"He, he resembles Master..."
"He does bear so resemblance."
"Saros, the Master?"
Their voices were low, yet Bai Luo heard them clearly. Looking at how everyone was dressed in typical Sakura Country style, it was obvious who the ninth page miracle was.
Moreover, Bai Luo noticed that the elderly man standing above bore a striking resemblance to soone Saros had ntioned to him.
"Nice to et you, Mr. Lu Wei."
Bai Luo addressed the elder: "Allow to introduce myself. My na is Bai Luo, Bailuo Yatun."
"Bailuo Yatun?"
"King Yatun?"
Upon hearing Bai Luo’s na, the Lu Wei Family was visibly stunned; they could hardly believe that the King of the Yatun Duchy would appear before them.
