When Hua Que mentioned what she wanted to trade, Angel's brows immediately furrowed.
"Rescue Popota?"
Angel's eyes carried a clear surprise as he asked in an almost incredulous tone, "This is what you want to trade for?"
Hua Que nodded emphatically.
Angel's expression turned somewhat ugly in an instant, "Popota didn't tell you what he encountered, and you want me to save him?"
To obtain great power, Popota had sacrificed his own soul to the Abyssal Master, which meant that once Popota died, his soul would inevitably return to the demonic soil of the Abyssal Master's domain.
The only way for Angel to save Popota was to rescue his physical body before he died, thus delaying his death.
Still, it was impossible; in pursuit of power, Popota had squandered his physical form to the brink of collapse. That he could live for another two years was all thanks to some benefits conveyed to him when the True Spirit of the Flameless Lord dissolved.
