Chapter 796: Witch of the Dragon Worship Sect
Isabelle fell silent when she saw the woman’s pleading expression.
It was silence, not hesitation.
She was just quietly waiting for her to die.
With Isabelle’s knowledge in the field of prophecy, she could accurately estimate the time of death.
She did not want to lie to this woman, nor did she want her to suffer more pain before she died.
Therefore, silence was the best way to deal with it.
“You will save her, right?
“She is innocent.”
Half of the woman’s body was buried in the ruins, and she was still begging him. Her pale lips trembled violently, and her life force was fading bit by bit.
“You will…” the woman said foolishly.
Three.
Two.
One.
Isabelle counted down coldly in her heart.
Just as she predicted, the woman in front of her took her last breath. Her pupils quickly dilated, and her body became stiff. However, her originally weak and slender hands still stubbornly held the baby high.
Isabelle calmly took the baby from her hands.
The baby turned over.
She turned around and smiled at her.
As if she felt threatened, the baby girl began to tremble intensely. She bit a few of her fingers and let out unconscious ravings.
The baby’s actions did not affect Isabelle’s determination.
Without any hesitation, she decided to make a move.
But at this moment.
She suddenly felt two piercing gazes on her back.
Isabelle turned around and found the ghost mother staring at her with a dull gaze.
Beside her stood a middle-aged man who looked like he had experienced many vicissitudes of life. He looked like her husband.
The couple’s spirits stood on the ruins, staring at Isabelle.
“Please, please don’t…”
The woman’s ghost let out a trembling voice. Every word she said weakened her spirit body a little, but she still tried her best to beg,
“If you don’t want to take her in, give her to someone else. Even if it’s on the ruins, I’m begging you, I’m begging you…”
Her husband also began to beg.
Isabelle’s expression was indifferent. Her gaze pierced through the two ghosts, and a hint of vigilance appeared in her eyes.
At this moment.
A gentle voice sounded from the other side.
” Perhaps you can give this girl to me.”
On the other side of the ruins.
A man covered in a pitch-black cloak slowly walked out of the fog. He held a dark green lantern in his hand and a huge sickle on his back.
” She’s only a fraction of the Maiden of Pain. She might not become the Maiden of Pain in the future.
” Even if she grows up and awakens the memories of her past life as a girl in pain, she might not necessarily walk the same path as before.
” Hand her over to me. I can guarantee that everything is under control.”
Viscount Fan said sincerely.
Isabelle looked at him thoughtfully.
“Did you have a deal with her?”
Viscount Fan shook his head.
“No, I never concern myself about the human world. I’m just passing by.
” There have been too many deaths in this city. I have to come personally to maintain the River Styx and give something to your student.
“He did me a favour before. I promised to give him the Slate Instance Dungeon of the Second Son of Death.”
Isabelle said straightforwardly,
“Then you can get lost.”
Viscount Fan bowed slightly.
“Yes, ma ‘am.”
After saying that, he elegantly turned around and left. His figure quickly disappeared into the fog.
Along the way.
He even took away the ghosts formed by the baby girl’s parents.
All the obstacles had been cleared.
The ruins fell silent.
However, Isabelle did not kill the baby girl immediately. A thoughtful expression appeared on her face.
In the next second.
She carried the baby girl and strolled through the streets of Cross City.
The meteor shower was still falling.
Due to the Searing Soul Day, Cross City’s protective shield had been damaged on a large scale. A large amount of fire rain fell, and the entire city fell into a sea of fire.
Fortunately, with the druids’ efforts, most of the people had moved to the underground caves in the north, so the actual number of casualties was greatly reduced.
However, many lives were still lost for no reason in the ensuing disasters.
Isabelle carried the baby girl as she walked on the streets.
At a glance, there were corpses strewn all over the place.
Her greyish-white eyes lit up with the radiance of arcane spells. With the support of the divine spells, she could easily see through the disguise of the gods.
Just as the chaotic meteor shower descended.
This city had a lot more divinity.
The Maiden of Pain was just one of them.
There were even more gods of the Heavenly Palace who successfully bypassed the restrictions of the Eternal Barrier and came to the human world through various reincarnation methods.
” Angels are just cannon fodder.
” These people have actually figured out a way to hide in the meteorite core. Compared to the methods hundreds of years ago, they have indeed learned to be innovative.”
Isabelle muttered to herself.
The baby in her arms struggled uneasily for a moment before curling up obediently.
She could see the confusion and hesitation in Isabelle’s eyes.
It was just that she was about to lose the last of her spirituality before she reincarnated.
The baby girl looked at the surrounding scenery with some nostalgia, and then her eyes became completely lost.
Loud cries rang out on the street.
Isabelle frowned.
