Amelia was more than a little shocked to see the sudden appearance of the Black cloaked Figure who must have moved at such a speed that she had not been able to follow and when she looked to her side, her mother's natural expression made It even more evident that this figure was not one to be trifled with.
Emily on the other hand was studying the cloaked figure but soon concluded that there was nothing she could discern. Not gender and definitely not cultivation.
That was worrying.
Even if she and Amelia were not targeted, she doubted her daughter would simply remain idle when Hal was up against an opponent he could not defeat.
