Beatrice's face changed. Rovan's eyes widened.
Then figures appeared.
One after another, several masked people stepped out from different directions, silently surrounding them.
Their auras were restrained, but every single one of them was a high-level cultivator.
The kids panicked at once.
"Run!"
They turned and tried to flee in different directions.
One of the masked men stepped forward and stomped his foot.
BOOM!!
The ground trembled.
A wave of qi spread out in all directions.
The children cried out as their bodies were slammed down to the ground one after another.
Some hit the pavement face first. Others rolled across the cracked road.
Then all of them went still.
Beatrice's face turned pale.
"Zack! Anne! Everyone!"
Her voice shook as she looked at the fallen kids.
Rovan's throat went dry. He stared at the masked figures around them, his face turning ugly.
He did not know whether he was the target or if it was Beatrice, but it was clear they had come to kill.
