Chapter 1187 A Passerby

Chapter 1187 A Passerby

Grey looked on, waiting curiously for who it was.
"You vermins! This belonged to my brother, just because he's dead you tried to take it for yourselves!" An enraged scream from a soft voice resounded from the stairs.
"Cori?" One of the men turned to look at the man who was friends with Ryla, the man killed.
"It's her." His voice sounded annoyed. He knew she wasn't someone they could take lightly.
The chances of their companion being dead were very high at the moment. This little girl is well known for her killing ability. She was very powerful, not just for her age, but even in her cultivation stage, she was stronger than most of those in the same stage.
When killing, she has no reservations. Not just that, but she was a powerful Space Elementalist who could come and go as she wished.
Now they understood why there was just one attack. Fighting against this little girl was a dreadful experience.
"Cori, what are you doing here?" The man asked, removing his mask so the little girl would recognize him.
"Uncle Aaron?" Cori paused when she saw the face of the man.
"Yes, it's me, Cori." The man referred to as Aaron nodded and looked at Cori who had anger written all over her face.

She paused for some time and killing intent started to boil around her, "Did you tell them? My brother said you were the only one who knew about him getting the core."
"What are you saying, Cori? Why would I tell people about that when I know it will endanger your brother?" Aaron replied with a wronged expression.
He was speaking very calmly as he walked closer to Cori.
"I don't know, maybe because you wanted it for yourself!" Cori replied coldly. Her reaction made Aaron halt his movements as he looked at the little girl with red eyes.
"Cori, I've been friends with your brother since we were boys, do you think I would do something like this to him?" Aaron looked at her with sincere eyes.
Cori's eyes showed confusion when she heard this. Yes, it was true that Aaron and her elder brother had been friends even before she was born. She didn't know what to think as tears started to roll down her eyes.
"They killed him, Uncle Aaron. They killed my brother." She started to wail uncontrollably.
Aaron heaved a sigh of relief when he saw Cori breaking down, she was, after all, a little girl.
Grey watched the scenes from the side and couldn't help but shake his head. When he first sensed the realm of the girl, he thought maybe she was like the assassin he fought against, but later on, he realized she was just a little girl which was a bit strange given that most people only sense their elemental affinity around the age of twelve.
He didn't think too much about it, this was another world and the way it works is most definitely not like the Aurora Continent.
'He definitely has a hand in his friend's death.' He thought to himself as he looked at the man. I think you should take a look at ReadNovelFull.com
He was not too interested in these things, as long as the little girl is fine, he would not bother with them. Besides, getting that core was all that interested him.
Aaron walked forward and hugged Cori, gently caressing her hair.
The other three men only watched the scene, not making any moves. But their eyes were glowing with ferocity. Even if this core belonged to Cori now, it had nothing to do with them. The little girl might be strong, but with all four of them working together, they would definitely be able to easily kill her.
They were still watching when they saw Aaron give them a sign with his free hand. After working together for so long, they all understood what it meant. Without saying anything, they started to surround the unsuspecting Cori who was still crying her eyes out under the embrace of Aaron.
After the trio had surrounded her, Aaron let go of her, "You shouldn't have come here, what if they followed you here?"
"I… I didn't think they would." Cori replied.
Aaron continued speaking with her, trying to get her attention from the other three.
Cori continued speaking with him, her eyes still filled with tears.
Aaron suddenly stopped talking to her and seemed to show signs of struggle before finally sighing, "I'm sorry Cori, goodbye."
Cori was confused by his statement, but she was stunned when she saw the killing glow in his eyes.
She didn't have any time to react before attacks rained down on her.
Although she was already at the Peak of the Sage Plane, she didn't set up any defenses, and against such a well-coordinated group, she stood no chance.
She could only watch on helplessly as the attacks got to her. Her eyes were still filled with tears and shock, there was confusion and also resentment present in them.
Grey sighed when he saw that they truly attacked the little girl. With no other choice, he took a step out and his domain spread out.
Each attack of the group froze a few centimeters away from the little girl who still hadn't made any movements.
Aaron and the other guys looked around, shocked by the new development. They all knew that Cori was a Space Elementalist, so there was no way she would be able to use this sort of attack.
"Who's there?!" Aaron asked, looking around, fearful of whoever stepped in. The fact that the person stopped all their attacks with just one move showed that they were not a match for this person.
"Show yourself! This has nothing to do with you. It's a matter involving family." Aaron said.
The one who created the array asked, "Are you from the Tekik Family?"
"I'm just a passerby." Grey said softly.
