Chapter 963: North Duke
A so-called View Mound was basically a burial mound created from the bodies of one’s enemy. Its purpose was to show off one’s martial merit.
This View Mount was over ten meters tall and made from countless corpses, ice and snow. At first glance, there had to be several hundred bodies at least.
Lu Tai Yuan was close to the arctic regions. It was so close then it wasn’t an exaggeration to say one’ breath would freeze into ice as soon as it left one’s mouth. Therefore, the corpses hadn’t rotted or attracted any pests.
Not only that, their final expressions—fear, shock, resistance, resentment, hatred and more—looked so lifelike it was disturbing.
Maybe it was because there were too many dead bodies, but the corpses’ blood was surprisingly warm and fluid. They flowed down the View Mound, melted ice and snow, and formed a scarlet blood pool on the ground.
Steam was visibly rising from the blood pool, and the blood stench was such that one could smell them even from a full five kilometers away. It added even more savagery and cruelty to the already cruel scene.
It was at this moment the space above the View Mound suddenly rippled unnaturally. Then, a figure appeared out of nowhere.
The figure was wearing a long purple qilin robe. His countenance was noble, dignified, and naturally imposing.
“This low general Ying Lou greets the Left Counselor!”
