Earlier the sll is already causing her to nausea what's more if it includes the sight of blood and flesh rotting.
She wants to use either the cages or walls to support herself as she tried to follow the man and make sure she won't lose him.
However, the Justice Affairs prison still a place where criminals stay to be punished for how long the law requires. It is not a good idea to just grab a cell that may have another prisoner on it.
Li Huan did not even question, why there is no difficulty for the man to just release her and he also walks leisurely and carelessly to a place she is not aware of.
All she can think of the mont is she wants to be saved and get away from the place and the man with the mask is the only one that can help her as of the mont. He is her only saving grace.
As they got further, they were able to arrive at a very large dark room, that does not have any cells. It is just wide space that she not able to see the corners.
The lights from lanterns will only brighten on every step and will eventually die down when they are far enough, keeping them to darkness.
Li Huan made sure to move closer to the man, and they are able to pass the room, and the end is a spiral staircase, towards the lower part of the Justice Affairs.
The man also leads the way through the staircase. 'Why are we going down?' She asked herself, as she tried to understand what is going on. 'Is there a secret exit, down there?'
She continued to follow, despite her struggle. "Stop... Please let ... Rest..." She said, more like begging. Li Huan is not sure how far more before they reach the bottom.
At that mont, every part of her body is still very painful. She was only able to stand up and keep up to the man, due to pure will power.
The man did not halt, but his face slightly turned sideways, like giving her a glance. "You can stop, so you die." He said with indifference and just continued to walk.
Li Huan, then understands what the man ans, it seems she needs to be fast enough so no one will chase them.
She continued to follow the man until they arrived at the bottom. As soon as their feets touched the stone ground of the place, all the lanterns lit up, to brighten the place.
Li Huan looked around, as she tried to look for an exit. "Expert, where is the way out?" She asked through a whisper.
The man then turned around before flashing in front of her. "Wh-" Li Huan was not able to continue asking when she suddenly felt the intense pain in her stomach. Upon looking down, she found out as she was just stabbed by a knife!
She then coughed blood as her eyes glassed with tears. She then looked at him, with bulge eyes of disbelief, her hand reaching up, to grab him as a support.
Sadly, before she was able to do so, he already moved away, after pulling out the knife from her.
Li Huan kneeled to the ground, as she covered her stomach with both hands, as her eyes show regret, "Why?" She uttered softly. "Are you not... Suppose to save ?"
Instead of answering, the man removed his mask, which is suppose to be, can only be removed by the Gao Master. "Save you? The mask alone is from the Gao family protectors right? I don't rember promising that I will be saving you." He with indifference.
"You... You're the... Expert... You gave the cure..." She said as she stuttered. Li Huan cannot believe what she is seeing.
