Fiery Fire Empress had just left the West County Villa not long ago when she was enveloped by a huge shadow.
"Fiery Fire Empress, have you found the whereabouts of the red stone?" A deep voice sounded, as if coming from all directions.
"Reporting to my lord, not yet."
"Hmm?" The deep voice carried a hint of anger.
"I, I will definitely find it as soon as possible! Please grant me more time." Fiery Fire Empress knelt on the ground, her body trembling.
Suddenly, dozens of black threads extended from all directions and then pierced through the body of Fiery Fire Empress.
Fiery Fire Empress's face immediately contorted in immense pain, yet she dared not make a sound.
Moments later, the black threads disappeared.
"This time it's just a small punishment, next time, it won't be so easy."
The shadow vanished, and Fiery Fire Empress collapsed weakly on the ground.
A stubborn look appeared in her beautiful eyes.
