No Answer

Bing Zheshuang shuddered at the question that was asked of her. She held her face stern, making sure to not let herself show even the tiniest hint that she knew the answer.

Letting Alex know that she knew what had happened would trigger her oath, killing her instantly.

Alex watched the woman who did her best to remain quiet. He fell into a bit of thought, at which point Godslayer spoke from his mind.

"She can't answer," he said. "That Divine realm woman from before definitely forced her to make some oaths. Look at her, she'll practically die before giving us anything."

Alex agreed. "I especially asked that question because I thought it would give her some leeway in case she was in an oath," he said. "But it seems her oath has more to do with ignoring the fact that Shumi ever existed at all."

"But she can talk about her sister, can't she?" he asked.
