Chapter 589: Mysterious Woman (2/2)

Said Iem with a Divine Sense Message.

Krune nodded.

”Should we try to call her out? After all, it should be impossible to enter the Mortal Rejection Realm in a place hidden from the heavens. That being said, she should have been here ever since this Underground City was closed to the outside world. Of course, that is considering that she isn't simply someone like us. Or the fact that she might decide to attack instead of talking since we shouldn't be here.”

Iem shook his head.

”I think it is too risky. If we can arrive at the last floor first and don't find anything, then we might try this idea.”

Krune pondered a bit as he looked at her.

”Well, maybe she isn't using her Divine Sense at the moment. She seems to be meditating or is concentrated on cultivation. In that case, we might be able to pass by her if we don't make any noise. What about stay close to the walls and sneak past?”

Iem couldn't help but feel like this was a childish idea. Unfortunately, he couldn't see another way around either. They didn't have much time, so they had to act now.

”Sigh... I guess we can only try.”

Krune and Iem deactivated their Purple Tribulation Lightning and Devil Flame concealing skills and left the stairs. However, as soon as they gave the first step into the 13th floor, the woman in the distance opened her eyes.

Krune and Iem's heart skipped a bit when that happens. At the same time, Harold and Luvile were prepared to go all out with Krune and Iem in case she decided to attack. Without a doubt, they would pay a healthy price, and there would be no guarantee of victory against such a difference in cultivation level.

However, what happened next took them aback. Tears began to flow from her eyes as she looked at Krune's group. She then kneeled in their direction before pledging.

”Please, help us. Only you can give our freedom back.”

Krune and the others didn't know what to do. From the various possible reactions they expected, this definitely wasn't one of them.

Krune and Iem didn't let their guard down, though.

”What do you mean?”

The woman noticed that her emotions took the best of her. Obviously, Krune and Iem couldn't possibly know why she said that.

”Sorry, I'm getting ahead of myself.”

She then lifted her hands, and a wave of Godly Energy enveloped Krune and Iem. The two of them then started to float in her direction. Luvile and Harold immediately found out her level through that, though.

”Godly Fusion Realm!”

Krune and Iem grimaced. Even if Harold and Luvile helped them, it would still be impossible to escape from someone this strong.
