This way, nothing bad will happen to her family.
Seeing Elvira give no response, Alex tried to provoke her.
He took out a sharp knife and thrust it toward her eyes, expecting her to open her mouth, beg, or at least say something.
But to his surprise, Elvira stayed silent. She clenched her fist, tears falling from her closed eyes as she prepared to die.
As the knife inched away from her face, his hand shook for a moment but then stopped. He gulped, took a deep breath, and closed his eyes briefly.
When they opened again, his life force seemed to emerge from his body, raising his killing intent and turning it almost tangible.
He then got close to Elvira's ear and began to whisper.
After a few minutes, he cut the rope binding Elvira and let her go, surprising MingYue.
The words Alex whispered could only be heard by Elvira, despite MingYue's sharp hearing. After Elvira left, MingYue looked at Alex suspiciously.
