“What is that?”
“Sister-in-law!”
A familiar voice rang out from behind them, and it was Frostine Usoro who had arrived. Percival and five other members of the Usoro family were also with her.
“Frostine! Brother, Second Sister…”
Frostine’s fourth sister-in-law burst into tears. Seeing her relatives and narrowly escaping death had been extremely taxing on her emotions.
“Sister-in-law, keep your voice low,” advised Frostine.
“Plenilune Sect’s people may pop out from around us at any moment. We’ll follow Junior’s puppets. Hurry, everyone, keep up.”
The extra people with them were ones that Alex had just rescued. He took on the scouting role with his Three Realms paper doll puppets, as he could see through their eyes. In other words, he had hundreds of pairs of eyes right now.
Then, he had one of the puppets lead the way, following the route Alex had taken. As they went forward, more members of the Usoro family were found.
“Just how strong is the Young Master?” whispered someone. “Why does he seem to know his way around the Misty Swamp like the back of his hand? Not only has he not lost his way, but he could also find us all accurately.”
“I’m curious too! But I feel lucky enough to be alive right now, so why bother so much about that?”
“That’s true…”
Percival spoke to Frostine instead in a low tone. “Frostine, what rank is the Young Master? I feel I may not even survive one blow from him. Also, that method is something I’ve never heard of before.”
“I don’t know either,” Frostine said. “He said he’s in the realm of Core Formation. Can you believe it?”
Percival rolled his eyes. “If you had said instead that you could lay eggs, it would be more believable.”
The sect master furrowed his brows and pondered for a while. “Do you have any ideas?”
Hermione hesitated before taking out a mirror from the storage ring. “This is called the Reflective Eye, given to me by my goddess master. I could probably find him using this.”
The sect master looked into the mirror and felt as if there were additional things in his vision. But in the end, he suppressed it.
“Then, thank you for the trouble.”
“Sect Master, this is just what I should do.” Hermione was relieved when the sect master didn’t seem to have any intention to snatch it from her hands.
She used her Chi to activate the mirror, and a bright light circled it before shooting upward into the sky. It seemed to expand with the wind, turning into a giant mirror dozens of meters tall, rotating slowly. In the next moment, a light suddenly burst out of it, and a shadow a hundred meters away was illuminated. It revealed the body of a paper doll.
And at the same moment, the paper doll let out a piercing scream and burned up. Immediately afterward, on the left, right, and on the ground below, seven or eight paper dolls were illuminated at once and burned.
