Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest)
Chapter 2094

Gritting her teeth, Rachel Wood soon saw a pathway up a hill that wasn't too far away.

It meant she would soon be out of the village. Then, she'd be free from the risk of being surrounded by the villagers.

She kept running forward, ignoring everything else.

Terrified, she couldn't stop crying. Tears blurred her vision, but she kept running and didn't dare to stop.

Desperation tends to bring out one's hidden potential.

Rachel ran faster than she'd ever run in her life.

Meanwhile, the villagers continued to chase after her. She was fast, but she wasn't as fast as those men.

Ten minutes later, they were only approximately fifty meters behind her when she made it to the pathway up the hill.

It was a crossroad of sorts, and Rachel had no idea which one to choose.

Out of time, she chose to turn right and kept running forward while the villagers pursued her relentlessly.

She was barefoot with cuts everywhere.

She had no idea when her soles had become wounded so badly.

It almost looked as if she had just walked over hot charcoal.

Rachel was in pain, but she didn't care except to keep running.

Looking behind her, she saw that those men had closed the distance to only twenty meters.

She had to speed up, or she'd be dead.

She had to outrun those people.

Biting her lip in desperation, she sped up.

Rachel never had good stamina.

In addition to that, she hadn't been getting enough nutrients lately.

Right then, her body was beginning to weaken, but she pressed on.

A single step forward meant she

was

What much closer to f step closer to doom. Go?

step back meant she.

Freedom was a huge contributing factor for her now.

'Rachel, you can't let yourself be caught by those crazy men again!'

'The person you should be with is Sebastian, not anyone else!'

'Rachel, you can do it!'

She cheered herself on as she continued running, her body covered in sweat from exhaustion.

Her breathing was so weak, she felt as if her lungs were about to collapse.

After pursuing Rachel for a while

longer, the villagers halted in their et

tracks, bending over with hands

on

knees, and panting in fatigue.

Joy erupted in Rachel's chest then. The villagers stopping meant she could increase the distance between them.

Even so, she couldn't let her guard down and keep moving forward.

Soon, she managed to increase the distance between herself and those people to approximately fifty meters again.

Meanwhile, some of the villagers seemed to have rested sufficiently to begin running again.

Rachel's

brotherssband and his two were among those who et

Cued pursuing her while k aged father-in-law had stopped.

She continued to run ahead, wiping the tears from her face as she arrived at a turning point.

There was a hill next to her.

Rachel had disappeared before their eyes, but they didn't give up.

Instead of running in the direction they expected her to, she chose to head up the hill.

She made it halfway up when she saw a cave.
