After concluding his speech, the elder of the witch clan swiftly stepped aside.
Lisa fought against her restraints in a fit of rage, but her efforts were futile. She was bound by multiple layers of iron chains.
Logan lamented, "Mr. Guardian, everything is my fault. | gave the orders, and the children didn't dare to disobey me. So, if you wish to kill me, | have no complaints. Please spare the children!” Sitting at the head of the table, Rory sneered.
His path had already been destroyed by Lilly. He knew he could never reach the top.
Therefore, he had long set his sights on the McCarthy family. If they hadn't defied his orders, his path wouldn't have been ruined.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe had waited for a long time. And finally, the opportunity to annihilate the McCarthy family had arrived. He would never let them escape! As for Lisa, he resented anyone resembling Lilly. Disrespecting him would lead to this fate! Boom. Boom. Boom.
A rumbling sound emanated from between the two mountain ridges. Lisa turned her head and saw a massive millstone rolling towards them. Only then did she realize that she was tied to a millstone base.
She instantly recalled the scene when she and Anthony walked into a small village where the farmers were grinding soy milk with a millstone.
She looked at Fortune in shock as the person's face had turned pale.
Lisa didn't understand why such a colossal millstone was created solely to kill people. The bottom of the millstone had patterns, suggesting that the first time it rolled over, it might not guarantee a swift death. The millstone would continue rotating until everyone on it turned into a pool of blood.
She struggled in anger once again and managed to break one of the iron chains! The executioner was frightened, and the other elder shouted, "Execute her quickly!" She was desperate. She had no witch power left, and her strength was less than a tenth of what it used to be. She couldn't break free.
Her eyes turned red, and she looked at Fortune behind her and said, "I'm sorry." He was only about ten years old and approximately the same height as Josh.
Lisa felt an agonizing pain in her heart.
Fortune closed his eyes in despair and said, "What's the point of saying this now?" As soon as she left the cave, Rory was already there. Even if she had accepted the situation and hadn't gone out, Rory would still find them unless they had ignored her from the beginning and hadn't saved her.
Fortune tightly held a branch in his hand, which symbolized his faith. When Rory attempted to kill Lisa, he rushed over with the branch, but it broke. Then, he and the others were naturally captured.
If anyone should apologize, it should be him. He had been too impulsive. Fortune couldn't help but start crying.
Logan looked at the children with pale faces and fear in their eyes, and his own eyes were blurred with tears.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIt's all my fault...
The millstone drew nearer, and the rumbling sound almost drowned out all other noises.
However, even after a long time, they didn't feel any pain.
Fortune opened his eyes in confusion, and a beautiful figure came into view. Lilly was holding up the massive millstone with one hand, and with a wave of her other hand, the iron chains on Lisa broke! Lisa hadn't fully comprehended the situation yet as she looked at the familiar figure in astonishment.
"Lilly?!" Am | hallucinating? Is this a vision before my death?! Lilly snorted and lifted the enormous millstone before hurling it at Rory. Rory's pupils contracted. Although he wouldn't be crushed to death by the millstone, he fled in a very embarrassing manner and fell heavily.
A small demonic beast tamed by the witch clan watched the commotion from the side and urinated, causing Rory to fall right into it.
Then, Lilly said coldly, "How dare you lay a hand on my Aunt Lisa? Do you want to die?" She couldn't speak for others, but she believed that her family would never commit any unforgivable acts, to the extent that they had to be executed by a millstone! Rory rose from his seat, his face filled with even more embarrassment. "They have violated the laws of the ancient witches!" he exclaimed angrily. "You are an outsider. How can you meddle in other people's affairs just because you possess power?" Ivan responded coldly, "Is that so? What law are you referring to? When did the witch clan establish such a law?" Rory declared with conviction, "The Nether prohibits the entry of any humans, spirits, or beasts from outside, and it also forbids anyone within the Nether from leaving! Am | mistaken?" Ivan sneered. "That is my responsibility to manage. Since when did it become your duty to manage it?" Rory clenched his teeth and struggled to find words. "But you won't punish those who sneak in!" He glared at Lilly and Lisa.
Ivan stared at Rory icily. "Firstly, Lisa is a descendant of the witch clan; this is where she belongs. If she shouldn't be here, then why are members of your witch clan present?" Rory was speechless.
The members of the witch clan were shocked to learn that the woman they were about to execute was also a descendant of their clan. It was clear that Logan had not violated any rules by saving her.
Ivan then turned his attention to Lilly. "As for Lilly, she is the daughter of Emperor Prosper, the current Ruler of Hell in the underworld. Furthermore, her Order exists neither within nor outside the Nether; she resides in the Emperor Realm.” Ivan looked at Rory with a sarcastic smile. "So tell me, which rule of the Nether prohibits an Emperor from entering?" Rory faltered. "I..."
