Ye Buyu bit her lower lip, her expression somewhat grave.
She was every bit as troubled now as she had been impressive in that exchange just moments ago.
She could barely save herself, let alone anyone else. Right now, she had no time to consider anything else; she only wanted to find a sliver of hope with Mu Bingge and escape this troublesome predicament.
Just as she was thinking, the two locked in a stalemate actually turned toward them at the same time, astonishing divine light bursting from their eyes as they spoke in unison.
"Help me!"
Left Face said gravely, "As long as you help me suppress her, I'll let you leave. I'll even tell you where the other four are. I keep my word!"
Ye Buyu and Mu Bingge had little doubt about that.
Although the one on the left acted coldly and mercilessly, she had her own principles and tremendous self-respect.
Not to be outdone, Right Face said, "I can tell you right now. Your companions went to the Divine Realms of two other deities. The place you're in is [Fate]'s Divine Realm, an existence independent of the rest of the universe, so..."
Before Right Face could continue, [Fate] raised her left hand and deftly clamped it around her own throat.
"Are you mad? You won't be able to speak either!" The right side of her body restrained her left hand.
The pitch-black eye turned toward the center, glancing at her other self as her lips curled into a faint smile.
"I know you want to stop me from saying..."
"Shut up!"
Her left hand abruptly straightened into a blade and chopped down with enough force to sever her own head.
But the right half of her body suddenly dropped to one knee, making the strike miss.
