"Annis is an Oracle?"
No, it should be said that an Oracle was impersonating Annis.
The pattern had appeared in exactly the same place.
He Xi had reached this conclusion
because he had seen the pattern twice in total.
Once was on the back of the hand of the person known as the Oracle; the other time was in the perspective of his previous possession, where he had seen it on his own wrist.
And among all the Black Robe People, he had only seen it on those two.
He could clearly sense that those bearing this pattern were fundamentally different from the other Black Robe People.
They were something like core members.
That was also why he had instantly ruled out the possibility that the person before him was the real Annis.
After all, her position in this transaction made it impossible for her to be a core member of this cult.
Originally, He Xi's plan had been simple: create chaos, then use the [Teleportation Scroll] to take Annis away directly.
That was also why he had refused Raymond yesterday.
If he could save Annis and help her recover her memories, then compared with her calculating old father, He Xi was certain he could get far more money from this rich woman.
But now, the script had changed.
And this was not a one-man show.
The other actors had long since taken their places.
There was no time to hesitate. At the very least, it was now easier to achieve another goal—to rip away the Holt Family's mask completely and expose their festering collusion with cultists to the sunlight.
Before the guards had fully reacted, He Xi's gaze passed over the crowd and precisely locked onto the exquisitely made-up woman in a dark green gown near the front.
