Against Heaven's Will Chapter 149 Determination

"Ugh, this queue… We need to hurry up and figure out something to skip it…"
Seeing the long queue ahead of them that was not moving at all, Lisa couldn't help but start to lose her patience.
"If we don't do anything, we will be late for the Tournament," she added frustrated.
"I know… It should be starting right now and we are still stuck in this City…" Yiren whispered back, also upset at the outcome.
They woke up early after they gathered an insane amount of Upgrade Fragments yesterday night and queued up to the Teleportation Station. Too bad, they didn't expect even the special queue would take this long. Apparently, there was a sudden break of the Station as it was being used by the City Officials to transfer goods.
Even if they were important personalities, they had to wait like everyone else. They even asked nicely, knowing how important it was to reach Water Land Capital on time but nothing could be done. In front of them were many elites with the same problem.
Yiren glanced at the blocked entrance to the Teleportation Station and finally snapped.
"Lisa, let's go," Yiren commanded, her expression turning cold. "We need to get to Xuefeng before the Finals starts. I will do whatever it takes."
"What do you want to do?" Lisa asked curiously as she followed her but Yiren remained mysterious.
"Sometimes being nice doesn't work. I hate it."
Yiren walked past everyone, straight towards the entrance while ignoring everyone completely. She only had one goal and that was meeting Xuefeng again. If she decided on something, no one could stop her.
"Miss, Teleportation Station is still busy. We will resume in about fifteen minutes, so please be patient," the City Guard informed as he saw her coming again but this time Yiren didn't stop walking.
"Do you think I care?" Yiren asked back indifferently without even looking at him.
The two City Guards at the entrance sharpened their expressions, immediately blocking their way.
"Miss, stop right there. Please don't make trouble. We are just following an order," the City Guards tried to reason with her but there wasn't anyone who could argue with her at that moment. She was going to meet Xuefeng no matter what.
"If you block my way, you will die," Yiren announced, walking steadily into them. One could tell she wasn't joking as her face didn't change one bit, gazing at them without any expression.
Unfortunately for her, they weren't that easily scared off and they pulled out their weapons instead, two shiny spears aimed at her face.
"Miss! If you come any closer, we will be forced to attack— Ahh!!!"
The City Guard warned her but he suddenly screamed, his leg breaking in half. He dropped to the floor with his face twisting in pain.
"If you block my way, you will die," Yiren repeated. This time the City Guard wasn't as brave as before.
"Miss… What you are doing will not bring you any good," City Guard muttered as he moved to the side but Yiren ignored him.
There will be more who tell her the same.
"Whoa… That was so cool!" Lisa called out as they entered the building. "You remind me of Nuwa now."
"I'm always kind to everyone but it seems not everyone deserves my kindness. I will only be nice to those who appreciate it," Yiren said firmly.
They walked inside the Teleportation Station and just as she thought, multiple City Guards were already waiting for them with their weapons out. Behind them were stacks of boxes that waited to be transferred.
"At least they didn't lie…" Lisa commented as the City Guards slowly surrounded them.
"You two are under arrest for attacking the City Guard! Reinforcements are close by! You can't escape so you better surrender!" The Captain of the City Guards ordered sternly.
Yiren didn't even react to his words, gazing at Lisa instead.
"Can you operate this Teleport Array?"
She didn't trust the City Guards in sending them anywhere so they had to serve themselves.
"I should be able to," Lisa expressed as she gave the platform a glance. "It doesn't look that complicated."
"Alright, let's do it," Yiren decided immediately, walking up towards the platform without much care.
The City Guard Captain was naturally pissed off at being ignored and ordered angrily, "If she walks up any further, attack!"
"Don't bluff me," Yiren called out coldly right after. "Do you think we are stupid? Once we start battling, this whole place will turn into ruins, and Teleportation Station will be no more. I wonder who they will blame for that later. The ones who barged in or the City Guards who are responsible for the order."
She shrugged, leaving the answer to the Captain, and stepped on the platform. The City Guards were ready to launch their attacks but the Captain suddenly raised his hands, calling out in panic, "Stop!"
Lisa grinned at how Yiren handled it and threw a small bag on the floor as she passed the Captain.
Thud.
The bag fell hard and tens of Upgrade Fragments spilled all over the floor, right beside the City Guards' feet.
"Good choice. Act as we never came here and you can split those Upgrade Fragments afterward."
The Captain and his subordinates were dumbstruck but for Lisa, that wasn't much. The number of Pills she had sold on her Auction was enough for their training with many leftovers to spend as she wished.
"Captain, we have been working hard lately. I think we deserve a bonus," the City Guards suggested with the simple meaning behind it.
We want money!
Lisa only shrugged and walked up to the array, not planning on picking up the bag even if they didn't take it. There were hundreds of them laying in her Storage Ring.
The Teleportation Array turned out to be simpler than what they thought and she set it up in no time. The Platform lit up and they held their hands together, ready to teleport.
Too bad the long-ranged Teleport wasn't as easy and pleasant.
"Ugh…"
Both of them grunted on the other side, their stomachs twisting inside of them. Compared to them, Mona was chilling as she still sat on Yiren's shoulder.
"Welcome to Blood Land Capital. Please drink some water, you will feel better."
They immediately heard greetings from the polite City Guards but their smiles disappeared at Yiren's next words.
"We are not done traveling. Can you please send us to the Water Land Capital?"
"Miss, are you sure?" The City Guard asked surprised. "Also, it's not possible to Teleport directly to the Water Land Capital. It's too far from here. No one would survive such travel. We can at most send you to the Spirit Land and only from there can you transfer to Water Land."
"Let's do it," Lisa quickly agreed, passing three Upgrade Fragments as a fee.
The City Guard could only nod, setting up the Teleportation Array just as she wished.
The second time was even worse.
"Bleeeh!"
The girls returned the breakfast they had earlier directly on the Platform.
"Welcom— Oh maaaaaaan! I just cleaned!" Someone complained from behind her but Yiren was temporarily too weak to lift her head. "Are you two okay?"
Lisa didn't hesitate and passed Yiren one of the healing pills. They both knew they needed to Teleport one more time which would put a lot of pressure on their bodies.
"We are good…" Yiren replied after the pill began to work and wiped her lips. "Are you okay Lisa?"
"Mhmm, we can continue," Lisa nodded, pulling out another three Upgrade Fragments. "Please send us to Water Land Capital."
"Oof! In this condition? Misses, we can't allow that…" the City Guard muttered, trying to convince her. "How about you rest a bit first?"
"I said we are good," Yiren replied simply, standing straight again. "We are the Clients here so don't ask questions."
Seeing her gaze, he could only comply with her request.
The third time… was the worse thing the girls had felt in their lives.
"Fuck! Those two girls fell unconscious! Someone come help me!"
Yiren heard multiple voices and yells all mushing together as her mind begged to explode. She had never had such a strong headache. She couldn't even open her eyes to see her surroundings but she felt the coldness of the floor.
Xuefeng!
A single thought of him snapped her eyes open despite the immense pain. She saw Lisa laying right next to her with similar symptoms and Mona who defended them against the City Guards, pushing them away till they get better.
They made it alive. Only that mattered.
'Xuefeng, we are coming to you... Wait for us..."
