The candidates couldn't help but gasp.
Twenty lashes was enough to make a person half dead!
The words hung heavy in the air, an ominous threat that sent shivers down their spines. The phoenix-masked woman smirked, relishing the power she wielded over Yu Holea.
The cat-masked woman heaved a sigh of relief when the phoenix-masked woman took her signal and used her trump card.
The swan-masked woman who was now acting as a mediator suddenly turned silent and lowered her head as if she didn't know anything.
The rest of the candidates sighed, as to how cruel the phoenix-masked woman was!
Yu Holea still had a small smile on her face,
"You can't."
The phoenix-masked woman's smirk faltered, but she quickly regained her composure.
"Very well," she snapped her fingers, and two burly guards stepped forward, their expressions blank.
