Chapter 455

Meanwhile, on the other side, the helicopter continued its flight. It was still two hours out from Lovell City.

Kenneth's injuries had been treated, and he'd taken his medicine and an injection. After resting for a bit, he was feeling better.

He glanced around at his subordinates, most of whom were sitting quietly, a few already half asleep from the long flight.

Tiffany, though, was still sitting up straight, her posture stiff. Despite her calm, collected look, her clenched fists betrayed just how eager she was to get home.

Kenneth quietly got up and sat next to her, lowering his voice to keep it soft, his tone a bit rough from just waking up. "We're almost there. We'll stop to refuel and head straight back to Lovell City after." "Yeah." Tiffany gave him a small smile. "Thanks for helping out."

Kenneth blinked, slightly dazed. After a moment, he replied, "No need to thank me. Me and my people back home are kind-hearted. Don't be burdened."

He felt awkward lying and stumbled over his words. If Tiffany could see him, she would've noticed how stiff and uncomfortable he looked.

As Kenneth spoke, the helicopter began to slowly descend. They were heading back toward the same valley they'd flown over earlier.

But just as they were about to land, Kenneth noticed another helicopter coming down right behind them.

"This is our chance," a man in the other helicopter said. "Miss Xanthus wants us to get rid of this woman, no matter what! Listen up-no mercy. We can't leave anyone alive!"

"Got it!" came the reply as everyone got ready.

On Kenneth's helicopter, one of his subordinates urgently called out. "Not good, the helicopter behind us is landing too! What should we do?".

Kenneth's heart skipped a beat. These were the same people who had chased Tiffany before they went to Azure Sea Royal Palace.

In other words, all of this was sent by the mighty Saintess, Morwen. She was really persistent. First, she failed to kill them in the Treasure Pavilion, and now she was chasing them down, even though it was way too risky. Kenneth's face darkened as he asked, "How much longer can we keep going without landing? How long will the fuel last?"
