Ella's limp hand curled into a fist, then he spat at her weakly, "The good news is you're not dead, the bad news is you're not far from it."

'Pa!'

In the silent atmosphere, a crisp slap sounded.

One slapped her face hard, and said viciously, "You dare to be tough even at death's door. Alright, since you don't want to listen, I'll tell you anyway. Perhaps you never dreamed that Freya would enter the underground maze to save you. Not only did she endure the torment of the illusionary sound secret path, she also fell into the crevice of the black abyss. You've probably already fallen to pieces and your bones are going."

"What did you say?"

Ella's eyes were filled with anguish, she tried with all her strength to get up, but her body was too weak to support her.

Seeing her so weak, Onesmirked in satisfaction, "Don't waste your energy, you've been poisoned by the star-shaped hidden weapon. You won't be able to recover your strength in the short term. Although this poison won't take your life, it will gradually change your physique, eventually turning you into a useless person."

With that, she laughed heartily.

I didn't expect Belle to be so ruthless, she can even harm her own Yara.

Although she warned herself not to touch Ella, she ignored Ella completely.

This clearly tells herself that she doesn't care about Ella's life at all.

Since that's the case, why should she show mercy to Ella?

Having stayed in the underground maze for a long time and being controlled by drugs by Belle, her heart had already twisted. If Ella could become the target of her emotional release, it would definitely be satisfying.

Ella naturally knew how dangerous the star-shaped hidden weapon was. When it pierced her, the excruciating pain spread throughout her body, draining all her strength as if she had been hollowed out.

Even though Belle had already fed her an antidote, the feeling of weakness was still difficult to alleviate.

"ying, do you really think that Freya is safe?"

Even though her heart was in unbearable pain, she still didn't show it.

Having been together with Freya for so many years, they had experienced countless crises together, and each time, Freya managed to survive.

She would rather believe that Freya will definitely survive this ordeal. It is because she has concerns in her heart, and also the responsibility of being a mother. Even if she has to fight with the grim reaper, she will never have the heart to abandon Bradley and the child!

"The crevice is deep and bottomless, not to mention your mother also said, even if a person doesn't die, the piles of snakes and crises below, she can't possibly get through safely."

ying's rough face was extremely ferocious, bathed in darkness at this moment, as terrifying as a ghost seeking life.

Ella's eyes were filled with hatred, and she coldly said, "Where is Belle?"

She really regretted it. She shouldn't have been so soft-hearted and left Belle behind back then, creating the crisis that led Freya to sacrifice herself. If time could start over, she would stick to her original intention and personally end the life of this mother.

"She is your mother, how would I know where she is!" One said fiercely.

Belle has always been elusive, no matter how many times she was followed, she could not find her way out. Since she brought Ella down, she either personally came to the ice room to find herself, or she appeared in the Black Abyss Cave, and she did not know where she went. Currently, One is loyal to Belle, but secretly keeps searching for her weaknesses. If she has leverage in her hand, she will not be played in the palm of Belle's hand. Even this life does not have the power to control life and death. Ella looked at One's face and felt a little scared. The former One, twisted by love and hatred, now destroyed her appearance and trapped in a maze, the seed of resentment in her heart is gradually growing, reaching the brink of madness. People like this, if not eliminated, will become disasters! Her body has reached the end of the line, this life has no other demands, just hoping to live in peace. In this way, she can also make up for her mistakes!

Headquarters medical room.

Xavier woke up from a dream, raised his hand to touch his face, and found himself covered in cold sweat.

He had just dreamed that Ella and his subordinates from Raven Pavilion had encountered danger in an underground maze and ended up lying in a pool of blood on the ground.

This dream made him very uneasy, so he immediately called Bradley.

Bradley, who was busy looking for clues all over the place, suddenly received a call from Xavier and stopped in his tracks.

He took out his phing and answered it, hearing the anxious voice on the other end, "Bradley, what's going on with Ella now?"

Bradley's eyes narrowed, his hand holding the phing unconsciously exerting force.

Since Ella's incident, he had not mentioning anything to Xavier. Now that the topic was brought up, he didn't know how to respond.

"Young Master, did something happen to Ella?" Xavier, who was anxious and couldn't wait for Bradley's response, became even more agitated.

Having lived through life and death with Bradley for so many years, he knew this man's temperament well. He was used to staying silent in the face of adversity even though he was worried inside.

This made Xavier more certain, Ella is definitely in trouble.

"City..."

After a moment of silence, Bradley finally spoke, "No matter what I am going to say next, you must promise me not to get excited and not to act on your own."

The reason I didn't tell Xavier about these things is because I was afraid he would act impulsively.

After all, he didn't even want his life for Ella. If he learned that Ella was in trouble, I'm really afraid that Xavier wouldn't be able to bear it.

"Okay, go ahead."

Xavier clenched the sheets nervously. They say that lovers have a telepathic connection, and the feeling of heartache is a constant reminder that Ella is in trouble.

Bradley calmed his emotions and said softly, "Ella has been troubled by excessive worrying and has suffered from a mental illness. She hasn't been in a good mental state recently, and Freya has been with her at Raven Pavilion. However, by coincidence, it was discovered that Belle pretended to have amnesia, and she is likely still a member of the Ward Family."

Ward Family?

At the mention of this name, Xavier's fist suddenly tightened.

He naturally knows this family, who worships snakes as their belief, excels in using hidden weapons, and acts ruthlessly and heartlessly, far more terrifying than the former Long family. "Freya is deciphering the fingerprint code of the underground maze with Belle, and they started fighting at the back mountain of Spirit Pavilion. When Ella came to rescue with others, he was hit by the hidden weapons of the family and was taken away by Belle." Hearing this, Bradley's expression became dark, even his fists couldn't help but tighten, "I went down to rescue Ella with Freya, and fell into Belle's trap carelessly. Freya is now also missing." Upon hearing this, Xavier almost dropped his phone. Ella is in trouble? Freya is also in trouble? Everything is trying to unravel the secrets of the underground maze, but what about him? Dragging a disabled body, he is powerless and can only hide like a coward and dare not show up. In his current state, how is he any different from rubbish?
