1247 Xiao Hua's Drastic Transformation(2)
"You… you… you…" Xiao Hua's speech faltered as her thoughts raced to formulate her next words.
"Ah!" Suddenly, Xiao Hua let out a sharp cry of pain.
"Xiao Hua?! Are you alright?!" Yuan exclaimed with deep concern in his voice.
Xiao Hua dropped her sword, which dissipated into thin air upon contact with the ground, and she began to stagger, clutching her head in evident distress.
"No… Wait… Not now! Just a few more minutes! There is still something that I must do!" Xiao Hua exclaimed, her words appearing as if she were in a conversation with herself.
She looked at Yuan and extended one of her hands toward him, almost as though she was longing for him.
"You… Who are you…? Why do you look like— Ah!"
With one final scream, Xiao Hua lost consciousness and collapsed to the ground, and her appearance began reverting back to normal.
"Xiao Hua!" Yuan quickly went to pick her up, but there was no response from her.
He immediately checked her vitals, sighing in relief upon confirming that she was still alive.
"Is she okay?!" Xi Meili rushed over when she snapped out of her shock.
"Yes, she's just sleeping." Yuan nodded.
"Anyways, what in heaven's name just happened? Who is Xiao Hua?" Xi Meili's body shuddered in fear just recalling Xiao Hua's chilling aura and overbearing presence.
"Xiao Hua is an Exile— someone banished from the Nine Heavens because of a crime they or someone in their family had committed. In her case, her family had committed some kind of crime and became Exiles."
"Hm? If they are banished from the Nine Heavens, how is she here? That other guy as well." Xi Meili asked the first question that came to her mind.
"Because Exiles are given a chance at freedom through the Supreme Heaven's Legacy. I don't know the details, but if an Exile fulfills this legacy, they will be able to get rid of their status as an Exile and return to the Nine Heavens without being hunted by the entire world."
"I see… Her family must've done something unspeakable if someone like that guy was that terrified of her family." Xi Meili sighed as she glanced at Zhaohui's headless body.
"..." Yuan wanted to defend the Asura Clan, but after witnessing Xiao Hua's aura that reeked of blood, he couldn't utter a word.
