It turned out to be Cecilia Peach!
Back when Alex, Daya, and the others were in the Underworld, they couldn’t see Cecilia’s true appearance since everyone looked like a skeleton. The other aspects looked precisely the same, save for the height difference… At that time, Dorothy had recovered the appearance of her physical body after acquiring some kind of mysterious opportunity, whereas there was no difference for the rest.
Hence, they knew that the woman they saw was Cecilia. Someone shouted her name.
“Cecilia Peach, you and Luneth Mueller hooked up with that swindler back in the Underworld, causing us to suffer double losses. Not only did our cultivation level fail to advance, but our resources were swindled. Do you think we have forgotten this?”
“It’s just to interest you a little by killing your brother. If you are tactful, cooperate obediently and utilize the Peach family’s capability of strange arts to open the passage to this core area. Otherwise, we will rape you and kill you!”
Surrounded, Cecilia was bent over on the ground. Wounds were all over her body.
“You guys killed my brother, yet you want me to open the passage?”
“Dream on! Keep indulging in your flights of fancy!”
Wham!
A man viciously kicked Cecilia in the face, slamming her head against the ground. He even grabbed her clothes and tore off her jacket, revealing her voluptuous figure in a tight black suit. At that time, the eyes of many men were filled with an ill-intentioned sparkle.
“The heiress of the Peach family is a real national beauty, just like it was in the legends.”
“Since she’s unwilling to cooperate, let’s enjoy ourselves then.”
“Perhaps she will change her mind after tasting men! ”
The men nodded and went slightly closer to her again.
Someone could not bear it any longer and started taking off his clothes.
“Are you going to save her?” asked Daya.
“I have to! I’m still waiting for her to dispel the curse!”
The few almost flew into a rage as soon as the spiritual blood oath was brought up.
“You deceived us to take the spiritual blood oath. How could it be valid?” someone reprimanded.
Alex sneered. “You don’t have the final say on its authenticity. The Lightning Tribulation will be the one to decide.”
Looking at Alex, Cecilia was overjoyed. “Are you really Alex Rockefeller? Alex Rockefeller in the Underworld? You really hid well and revealed no information about the Underworld. If everyone else hadn’t been spreading the news, I would’ve never known you were a Wastelander.”
Two people in that group of people had never been to the Underworld, nor had they taken any spiritual blood oath.
“You guys have taken the spiritual blood oath, but not us! We will just strike and kill him!”
“We are in the real world now, not the Underworld!”
Boom!
