Chapter 134 The Confrontation (1/2)

As her heart started to palpitate upon hearing that manly voice, Belle was suddenly stunned. With unexplained nostalgia, she felt eerie yet immersed with his voice. It was as if the voice triggered something in her memory, which should be impossible by now. Goosebumps were on her skin as the voice was familiar to her.

”You... who are you? Do I know you?” Belle asked softly, neglecting the strange feelings messing up in her state.

”Knowing my name would not benefit you. You must know that this competition will continue, so don't give up right away so easily. Alright?” Darren answered with a softer tone.

”Continue? How should we continue? We are a hopeless case.” Belle stood up and looked at the masked man. Tears in her eyes streamed down her rosy cheeks, making Darren's heart soften a bit.

”This competition is obviously pointless. How should we continue? And how could we win?” Belle whined more as her shrilling voice echoed in the square. Her mental state was unstable and shaken, close to insanity.

”Tell me mister, who will show mercy to my master and save her life? Of course, no one will,” she said and lost almost all of her strength, making her kneel on the ground. Her cries became wilder.

As Belle lost her composure already, Diana's face cooled down. Belle's breakdown was so intense that she had no choice but to restrain herself from bursting out either. She took a glance at Belle, stepped on the green lotus and floated towards her. With a cold tune, she commanded, ”Get up now, Belle.”

But Belle cried as a response to Diana as if she had forgotten everything that was happening now. The only thing left to her that she could think of was desperation.

After a while, Diana bowed her head and stared at Belle. She was hesitant but what must be done should be done. With an infernal light flashing in her eyes, her thunder-like voice screamed, ”Colin, get the magic spring water for me!”

After this contest, the three Ancient Families would send the magic spring water to the Lotus Holy Land whether they won or not. The significance of this gambling was just to decide which family would Belle belong to. Otherwise, the Ancient Families would not require the contest to be attended only by the outer disciples. Thus, they all brought the magic spring water with them, only to be stolen by Diana right now.

Everyone was surprised with Diana's command. Some were wide-eyed, while some dropped their jaws in too much shock.

However, hearing the Holy Lord's command made Colin doubtful. He looked at Diana intensively and dubiously and asked, ”Madam, what do you mean?”

”Grab!” Diana answered abruptly. As Diana's cold voice came out and lingered on the square, she immediately commanded right after, ”Where are the Left Guard and the Right Guard and the four elders? Get the magic spring water for me as I commanded. Kill everyone who resists! No mercy!”
