"Who is it?"
"Who's there?"
When the two Elysium Gate disciples saw Rachelle approaching, they became alarmed and shouted in unison.
Rachelle exhaled deeply, lowered her voice, and said solemnly, "I am here on the order of the sect master to remove the prisoner. This is the warrant." She took something from her pocket and handed it over as she spoke.
The two Elysium Gate disciples were stunned for a moment as they looked at each other and Rachelle's hand. They realized that Rachelle was not holding a warrant but a simple jade pendant.
However, at that moment, before the two Elysium Gate disciples could react, Rachelle's hand moved like lightning and hit them on their necks. Two dull sounds were heard, and the two Elysium Gate disciples passed out and fell to the ground.
After knocking out the two Elysium Gate disciples, Rachelle dragged them to the shadows, making sure there was no one else around, and then slowly opened the door of the secret chamber. The moment the door was opened, she ducked in and drew the longsword on her body.
At the time, Prince Auten was resting with his eyes closed, his hands and feet bound by iron chains. He opened his eyes immediately after hearing the movement. He was taken aback when he saw Rachelle standing before him.
"Evil thief!" Rachelle clenched the long sword and glared at Prince Auten fiercely. "Don't think your life is saved just because Darryl stopped me during the day. I will make good on my promise to kill you with my own hands to avenge my senior brother!"
When she spoke, her eyes were filled with resentment. Prince Auten became a little nervous when he sensed Rachelle's murderous intent, but he kept his expression neutral and said with a light smile, "Kill me? Do you have that kind of talent?"
