At the same time, Hebor and Andrew also knelt on the ground. They looked like fanatic followers of a cult. The only thing in their eyes was devoted passion.
"Henry, give us the thing Sylvia gave you," Sloane demanded again, "Hand it over. Quickly!"
Sloane stood up and laid the Qi blade against Peze's neck again.
Peze was in a bad shape after the torture. He couldn't say a word. Peze looked down. He looked as if he would die in any second.
Henry took out the ring, gritting his teeth. The moment the ring was out of his pocket, a red Qi coming from the stone tray stretched over to the ring.
The floating body started to move. Its hand stretched toward Henry as if asking him for the ring.
"Now!" Alvin suddenly yelled.
Alvin suddenly took out a knife. Under Sloane's expression of unbelieving, Alvin stuck the knife into Sloane's chest. He then kicked Sloane away and pulled Peze over to himself.
At the same time, the purple Qi started to grow around Henry's body. A purple Qi hand slapped Sloane away.
The red Qi completely disappeared from Henry's body. At this moment, Henry smiled confidently. He looked at the surprised faces of Sloane, Andrew, and Hebor.
"Alvin, you!" Sloane looked at Alvin in disbelief.
"My loyalty to Mr. Zhang has never changed," Alvin shook his head and looked at Sloane coldly, "I told you this before. I'll never betray Mr. Zhang. I wouldn't be who I am without him."
"You take Peze away," Henry said.
"Yes," Alvin nodded. He walked toward the gate with Peze in his arms.
"Don't even think about it!" Sloane shouted. She was hysterical. Sloane believed that she had turned Alvin a long time ago. She never doubted Alvin's loyalty to Alvin League. But that day, she realized that she had made a huge mistake.
Sloane wanted to stop Alvin, but there was purple Qi stood in front of her.
"Henry Zhang, so you have been acting the whole time?" Andrew said with his teeth gritted while staring at Henry.
"I'm not a fool," Henry shook his head, "I know there is something wrong with my body a long time ago. When you all picked on Radiant Island, I guessed that it probably had something to do with the Fire Crystal. I asked Alvin to fake his loyalty to you to find out what you were up to. And now I've known what's going on with my body. I think this thing which I haven't fully understand has something to do with the energy I absorbed from the Fire Crystal."
"Well done," Sloane clenched her teeth, "Abandoning Radiant Island is part of your plan?"
Henry shrugged, "The world is undergoing changes. It's risky to let Radiant Island be under the focus. Thanks to you, Radiant Island could disappear from the public's eyes. It was only a name and nothing more. Okay then, let's find out what this thing is inside of me!"
Henry looked at the body floating in the air. He waved his hand, and the ring fell back into his hand.
