Wicked Reincarnation

Chapter 60: The Truth 7



Chapter 60: The Truth 7

A few minutes later, Xavi managed to press out, "Even if she's the Lia, how can she help us?"

Xavi turned to Maria.

"You have some kind of power, right?" Maria asked Lia.

"Do I? Min has purged my exorcism abilities," she gave them a wry smile.

"But if you don't have powers, how did you get rid of the Z P and C family?"

"Who said I did?" Lia did manage to kill the Z family but Elder Z was killed by Min while Noel helped her with the P and C family.

"I've heard of it but now I realise it's you who did it," Maria was lost in her thoughts.

"Who told you that?"

Maria didn't answer.

"So, you don't have any powers?" Xavi has noticed that Lia has been frequently looking out of the window. While he did find it strange, he didn't pay much attention to it.

"I never said, in fact, you'll get to see them as a last gift in return for your information."

Xavi should've attached more importance to Lia's actions. After her last word faded, Lia jumped away from the window and the wall was destroyed by an unknown force.

The wooden pieces flew everywhere and dust clouded everyone's vision. Lily shielded Xavi as they along with Maria cowered on the ground.

Lia was the only one who stood and commanded, "You stand in front of the door."

She wouldn't let anyone get in. The servants in blue were strong and posed a threat. She had to finish quickly because the commotion she caused, definitely drew the servants' attention.

The three were still cowering on the floor not able to see anything and failed to notice the corpses passing by them and barricading the door.

Lily was the first to recover and pulled Xavi to the door, however, something was blocking her way.

When she looked up to see what it was she screamed.

"Lily, what's wrong?" Both Xavi and Maria were concerned.

"Don't worry," Lia watched them, "It's just my little present."

Rotten flesh with bulging veins drawn all over the skin, bloody mouths with dirt between the teeth and an incredible disgusting smell etched fear into the three people crawling on the floor.

Lia didn't enjoy their panic. She had nothing against these people. It was just unfortunate they came to know her identity.

As redemption, she wanted to give them a quick death. She no longer would make the mistake of letting people live with the possibility of it backstabbing her.

Three corpses stood behind Lia in the gaping hole of the broken wall and one corpse stood at the door grabbing Lily by the hair.

Lily pulled out her knife again and stabbed it into the corpse's arm yet the corpse neither made a sound nor let her go. On a closer look, Lily figured out why the corpses seemed so familiar.

"Young master!" Lily choked out as the corpses opened its stinky mouth ready to bite her, "This corpse is one of the intruders from yesterday! Young master!"

Lily desperately pulled the knife out of the corpse's arm and stabbed it in the face preventing it from eating her.

"I knew it! This Lia is one of them! She's dangerous!"

Xavi coughed the dust away from his face and took a look at the corpse then Lia. Then his attention raced back to Lily who screamed when the corpse threw her to the ground and removed the knife from its face to pierce it into Lily's leg.

"Lily!" Xavi rushed to her side and kicked the corpse away from Lily as much as he could.

"Maria! Heal! Quick or else her life force!" Xavi didn't need to say more. Maria threw herself next to Lily and white smoke surrounded Lily's hurt leg.

Xavi grabbed the knife but when he looked at Lia he put it away. Lia was slightly surprised.

"Stop the corpse! We're not your enemies!"

"I know you're not but that doesn't change the fact you know my identity now," Lia ordered the corpse to go for Xavi.

Xavi dodged and ran up to Lia but her three other corpses held him on the ground and towered over him.

"Young master!" Lily's eyes were red and she wanted to get up to help Xavi but Maria stopped her.

"You're hurt! I need to heal you."

"But young master!"

"Lia! Maria's right, we can help you. How much do you know about your power?"

"Stop," the corpse that was about to rip Xavi's head off halted.

Xavi, taking the opportunity, hastily said, "I know your power and its origin. I can help you and you can help us. It's a two-way deal!"

Xavi wriggled out of the corpses' hold while Lia allowed him to go back to Lily.

"Young master!" Lily sobbed. Xavi patted her head.

If Xavi knew about Lia's power, then this might be her only chance. There might be something only the hidden families had knowledge about. If she were to kill one of them, she might make an enemy out of all of them.

Seeing from Xavi's attendants' strength, it wasn't far-fetched that the other hidden families might also be strong. In addition, them knowing about her powers also ran the risk of her being countered by them. They could exploit the weaknesses of her power.

"How well can you control your powers?" Xavi knew he hit the nail on the head seeing Lia's reaction.

"Alright, let's talk about it," Lia called her corpses back, "It's a deal," she added as the three people perplexed looked at her,

"I won't harm you however in return you tell me everything."

"Ok," Xavi instantly agreed.

"Young Master, I don't-"

"Quiet Lily," the serious look on Xavi told Lily she couldn't change his mind.

Lia sighed, "I apologise for this," she looked at Lily and Lily glared back at her, "And this," Lia's gaze wandered to the large hole in the wall.

"Ok, let's move to another room then after Lily's healed," Xavi nodded.

"You can leave your corpses here. My men won't do anything, although this needs to be repaired again."

"Sit."

Like puppies, the corpses fell to the ground and obediently followed Lia's command. However, no one found it cute; instead, this sight only instilled more fear into them. Lia right now was like a dark overlord to them, indifferently ordering her minions around while having control over everything.

Lia read their faces and could guess their thoughts. It wasn't that hard.

"I remember vaguely the M Family has healing powers?"

"Yes, the Ghost King gave me powers to aid him" Maria was almost done healing Lily's wound.

"Then you can counter Min's powers?" this was a good sign for Lia.

"To an extent, you can describe it as that. In general, I can heal any kind of injury."

"I see."

"I'm finished," Maria gave Lily a light slap on the leg and stood up.

"Then let's move," Xavi walked out of the door. He briefly told his men to repair the wall while leaving the corpses alone.

His men had no idea what he was talking about but the minute they stepped into the room, they knew what frightening task they had to do.

They cautiously tiptoed around the corpses sitting in a circle in the middle of the room. Some even plastered themselves against the walls to move forward until they reached the hole.

This was somehow incredibly funny to Lia. Xavi saw the smile Lia broke out and popped another lollipop in his mouth, "You have a nice smile."

Xavi regretted what he said and vicious, tiny sweat drops ran down his body as the air around them turned several degrees colder.

"Oh? As a child, you shouldn't try to act mature."

"I'm 18! I chose this appearance because it's-"

"Something Lily is into, I already got it," Lia trailed behind them amused and watched how both Lily and Xavi turned red.

Maybe Lia has spent too much time with Noel. Either way, seeing Xavi and Lily's reaction she couldn't help but tease them.

It was as if they were born to be teased.

Xavi led them through various hallways until they ended up in a large room that was completely different from the previous one.

"It's my room," Xavi clarified.

Lily grimaced at Lia and the four stepped in, yet no one expected the next words that left Lia's mouth and made Xavi flush red deeply.

"Young Master, I'm not into this. I didn't know your deal included this."

"Stop it!" Xavi couldn't take it anymore. He turned to Lia but saw her beautiful face and got even more embarrassed.

"I I! I. I!"

"It's ok. I was just joking," Lia set him free from the hellish torture.

"Young master doesn't appreciate your bad jokes," Lily put distance between Lia and Xavi.

"Are you jealous?"

"Wh-What? No! Why the hell?"

Maria blankly watched from the sidelines. She always thought Lia was elegant, beautiful and kind.

Although she did retain the first two notions, her kindness was nowhere to be seen. However, after everything that has happened, Maria didn't find it strange.

Anyone who came back from hell, couldn't throw off the notion of the devil.
