Chapter 41 - 41
His entire figure was soaked with the ghastly crimson color of blood. Innumerable injuries could be seen all over his body, and even more blood leaked from the corner of his mouth. He seemed to have forgotten how many swords had been directed towards him already. A deranged anger covered his face, and it was clear that he had long let go of sanity, devolving into qi deviation.
This scene, under the brilliant, dizzying illumination of the fire, was terrifying beyond measure. For a moment, Shen Qingqiu forgot that he was within the Dream Realm, and threw himself towards Liu Qingge to pull out Cheng Luan.
The sword had already pierced through Liu Qingge's heart. Shen Qingqiu gently nudged it, only to be met with a spray of blood. Seeing this shocking sight, he slightly sobered up, retreating two steps back and b.u.mping into another person.
He jerked around violently. Yue Qingyuan faced him, his head lowered.
Although they were facing each other, Yue Qingyuan's eyes were empty of any light. From his neck to his chest, through all four limbs and his abdomen... he was punctured with black arrows.
Ten-thousand arrows had pierced through his body.
Shen Qingqiu suddenly realized what he was seeing in front of him—these were their original deaths!
The deaths that the original Shen Qingqiu had caused with his own hands!
Shen Qingqiu could not bear looking at the sight any longer. He would have rather been surrounded by a crowd of the faceless figures outside than to continue looking on at this kind of scene!
He retreated towards the direction where he had first entered. Unexpectedly, he was still able to find the sliding wood door. Shen Qingqiu ran like a man who had just been granted amnesty, speeding away from the door as soon as he stepped foot outside. This time his mind was unstable, his thoughts a scrambled mess. As he staggered along the street, he couldn't help but stumble over himself a few times, cutting a sorry figure.
The "people" on the street stared at him. The surroundings were deathly silent.
