“Not exactly… From what Mr. Crawford and I could see, she’s still human, though she cultivates demonic essential qi! With that in mind, her strength should be somewhere between the Morningstars and the Weirs,” explained Saint Darkwind.
“I agree. Aside from that, she seems to have just recently started cultivating as well. I have to say that her elegant temperament really hides her evilness well!” added Lyndon.
“Indeed… Now I’m starting to get worried about those siblings. After all, if that woman is truly evil, then the siblings are in for more trouble!” muttered Gerald as he shook his head.
“Shall I tail them?” asked Lyndon, as he hopped to his feet.
“That isn’t necessary. I’ve already locked onto them with my holy sense. Also, speak of the devil, I can sense that woman going after them now… Alright, that settles it. I want you and the professor to remain here while I head over with Darkwind to see what that woman’s up to,” ordered Gerald.
Before Lyndon could reply, Gerald and Darkwind had already vanished into thin air…
It was sometime later in front of a shabby house, far in the suburbs, when the young boy from earlier asked,
“Are you alright, sister…?”
This place was clearly the siblings’ home. Either way, his sister quickly replied, “I’m fine. Thankfully someone stepped in to help us… After all, we could’ve easily been doomed for offending Second Young Mistress Zandt!”
“But I really didn’t steal anything…! At the start, she told me to show her my identity card, and almost immediately after, she accused me of stealing something from her!” explained the boy.
“I see… Why she did that was anyone’s guess… Regardless, we can’t afford to offend such people anymore… Now let’s head in and see if mother’s doing better…” muttered the girl, prompting both of them to enter the house.
