The decrease in spiritual pressure allowed the mercenaries to get back on their feet but now there was nothing but fear in their eyes.
Sophie's display of raw strength had been received loud and clear.
No one dared to question the intimidating cultivator who stood by the door with blood still dripping down her bladed appendages.
Sophie could taste the fear and panic in the air, and it was causing her heart to beat uncontrollably.
Kill…
Kill…
KILL.
Sophie's eyes constantly flickered from the usual golden hue to a crimson red colour as the hybrid girl struggled to reign in her urges.
"Big sister… are you okay?" a soft whisper came from Sophie's arms.
Lily still had her eyes tightly closed but her tiny hand gently pulled on Sophie's shoulder in order to get her attention.
Sophie exhaled softly and stepped back.
Time was of the essence and every passing second would make the task more difficult to complete.
