Chapter 227: Let's Join Hands to Hunt for Hope
The village of Pokraras, the smell of human blood and corpses, had turned to the burnt smell of battle. Blood was everywhere.
It was like a coffin for slaughtering animals for food. The sounds of people walking around, searching for acquaintances. The brutal battle had ended with an explosion in the center of Pokraras.
The sky was filled with blue and white spots. The moonlight still felt distant.
Near the Lanna Sect, Shuni, who was sitting there crying, tears streaming down her face. He heard a faint voice behind him.
Crying for her sister, who had died.
Shuni heard the voice say, "Shuni."
His neck slowly turned in the direction of the voice, recognizing the voice speaking lazily, as if he had no intention of speaking.
Shuni turned, his eyes wide open, his mouth gaping open, revealing his white teeth.
Seeing Phalen's figure, the tears that should have stopped flowing increased. "Brother... not dead yet?"
Phalen's lazy face turned calm as he saw his beloved sister, Shuni. There's a hole in her right eye.
"Who did this to you?"
Shuni stood up and ran to Phalen. Seeing her sister alive, she wondered who was lying there dead.
Seraph saw the image of a young girl dumping a body of an unknown person and ran to her real sister.
Shuni ran with both arms raised like a child wanting to hug her sister.
Shuni ran to her sister, tripped on a rock on the ground, and threw herself forward.
Phalen opened her arms to catch Shuuni and hugged her sister tightly.
Shuni cried loudly. "Huh... I survived. Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you."
Shuni hugged her sister. She felt warm and slightly hot. Her clothes were covered in blood, and Phalen's right sleeve was torn off.
Seraph could only sit and watch the siblings hug each other tightly, comforting each other.
Seraph stood up, his face calm, letting the siblings finish their conversation.
Phalen's voice changed from lazy to cold.
"Your eyes, I promise, can heal. So, tell me, who dared to hurt you?"
Shuni was pulled away from her by Phalen, both hands gripping her shoulders.
"Don't be afraid, Shuni. I'll take care of it."
Shuni said with tears. "Actually...actually, this is how it is. Actually... Uh... That thing attacked the house... and that's how it happened."
Phalen didn't understand at all. "Can you say that again?"
"Yes, that thing attacked... Uh! And I had to do something... and that's what happened."
Hearing Seraph's reply, he could only think, [Who understands? Explain this in a simpler way. He's crying and talking?]
Phalen was about to ask again, but a voice came from behind him.
"That Hob thing! That thing pierced your sister's eye!" Shuni was about to say that. "The voice that spoke Cheerful.
Phalen turned to look in the direction of the answer he was wondering about.
When he turned to look, he saw a beautiful face, dressed in ordinary clothes, like an ordinary person, a brown shirt, shorts, revealing very white legs.
She could be called extremely beautiful, her hair tied in a ponytail, green hair reaching down to her shoulders. She was sixteen years old.
"Nice to meet you. My name is Fiona."
Fiona approached, her face smiling slightly, as if she were taking it easy.
Phalen pulled Shuni away, her face calm, ready to face Fiona.
"That's quite a reputation, Fiona. Why are you here?"
Fiona walked unhurriedly, without fear, and stopped in front of Phalen.
Their gazes met. "I'm chasing Hob. We had a little argument, and that's why we brought him here."
Phalen looked at Fiona's clothes. "That's interesting. Who's that Hob?"
Fiona opened her eyes slightly, raising her hand, making a gesture of looking through binoculars, making a gesture of a bird. He pressed his hands together, placing them in the center of his forehead.
"That guy had a minor issue with the sect, so I had to kill him."
Phalen turned to look at Shuni. "Did this woman save your life?"
Shuni nodded hurriedly. "Yes, yes. It was because of Fiona, the number one, that I was saved."
Fiona waved at Shuni, her face breaking into a smile. "Hey... My most capable sister, the best in the world. You're so kind."
Shuni waved back.
Phalen sighed. "I have to thank you. So, if you need any help, please let me know."
Fiona nodded. "I've been waiting for your question. I'm chasing Hob now, so are you free?"
Phalen seemed to be considering whether she should help.
"Let me think about it. Can you wait until tomorrow? I've used up so much energy, I can tell you I'm weak right now."
Fiona nodded. "Finish me. I've been waiting for this opportunity for so long."
Fiona swung her hidden sword at him. Whoosh!
Phalen swung her sword and slashed. Bang!
The sound of swords clashing rang out. Phalen remained calm, looking to her right.
Fiona ran to her right, her sword swinging out to attack, a sly smile on her face. Whoosh!
Phalen swung her sword to block. Bang!
"Defense? What? Weakened? Aren't you?" "
Fiona dropped her sword and swung her right foot with both feet, leaping and kicking. Whoosh!
Both feet, wearing sandals, kicked straight at Phalen's stomach. Whoosh!
Phalen swung her hand to block it. Boom! Phalen's sword swung down, aiming to cut off Fiona's leg. Whoosh!
Fiona's right hand grabbed a rock and threw it against the sword. Whoosh! Bang!
Fiona lunged back to her original position, standing still, her hands brushing the dirt.
"You've improved. Just kidding. Why are you so serious?"
Phalen stared at the sword in her hand. Fiona's other sword was floating in midair.
Phalen's swords clashed, sending Fiona's sword flying back towards its original owner. Bang! Whoosh!
Fiona leaned away. Whoosh! Her own sword, letting it pierce the ground. Smack!
"Stop fooling around. You see, we're very busy right now." So if you can wait, I'll help you.
Phalen gently stroked Shuni's head.
Seraph stood there, unsure of what to do. [What should I do?]
Fiona walked over and picked up the sword. "Alright, I'll wait. How's he doing? I haven't seen him in a long time."
Phalen looked at the Lanna Clan. "If he's still in the Lanna Clan, he might still be there."
Fiona smiled slightly. "Fine. I don't care about him anymore. Most importantly, I've been wondering for a long time."
Fiona turned to look at Seraph. Her finger pointed at him. "That little boy looks very familiar. Who are you?"
Phalen turned to look at Seraph. She had been wondering why the blonde boy standing there, so calm, was there.
Phalen nodded. "I don't know who this boy is either. Do you know him, Shuni?" "
Shuni turned to look at Seraph. "I don't know him either. This is the first time I've seen him before."
Seraph stood there, sweating slightly.
[I told him I wanted to give this child a gift, so I wanted to come and give it to him. But circumstances have changed, so I have to wait for the right time. Will it be okay to answer like this?]
