Chapter 416 - Illusionary Realm
Han Sheng stared at the scene, shell shocked as his body convulsed in fear. He did not know what this creature in front of him really was but all he knew was that it terrified him. Every inch of his body was shaking and he quickly raised his other hand towards his anxiously beating heart.
''No... No... Stay away from me... S-Stay away..'' He shouted but he did not dare to move while the fox had its paw settled on his other wrist.
He had seen it ripping off his man's neck with the very same paw and the fresh blood on that paw was the evidence that assured him that he was not hallucinating any of it.
Even when Han Sheng was pushed off by the terrace by this feral, it was not a dream. None of this was a dream no matter how unreal it seemed. He did not know what it would do if he tried to move right now so all he could do was sit quietly, despite his shivering body.
Mia quietly glanced at him. Now that her mind had regained its clarity, it slowly started registering everything that happened in this place.
Initially, she left Ren Mansion because she wanted to get her mind off from a few things. She fainted in the forest because she cultivated more powers than she could handle and then she fell into a state of deep slumber which took her to the illusionary realm. The illusionary realm was a place that her mother had once talked to her about.
It's like a land of dreams a fox spirit falls into if somehow they manage to hurt themselves while they are physically and emotionally vulnerable. And that land provoked the most vulnerable side in a fox's mind, filling it with endless anguish.
And the place can trap a fox spirit inside forever.
And it was true. Though her mother said that something like that has never happened to her but since Mia went through it, she was certain that everything she said was true.
Being left alone, being abandoned by the people she loved, it was the fear that she had buried deep inside her heart and never once brought it up but today, she felt it. She lived through it and felt how it was.
When Han Sheng tortured her, her body still refused to wake up from the slumber despite the physical pain she felt.
Yu Mei's sobs, her words, she heard everything and it broke her illusion for some time and left her muddleheaded but before she could wake up completely, she once again ended up in her dream.
But... But when Han Jian Yu was being tortured, the blood bond they shared acted up and it was like, she could feel it in her soul whenever he was being hit. The pain was so much that it clouded her ability to think properly and it managed to wake her up from her dreams.
''You...'' Han Sheng gulped when he noticed that the fox had stopped at a distance from him, ''W-What do you want? I have nothing against y-you... Let go of me...'' Left with no choice, he tried to negotiate with the feral as it looked like the thing had a consciousness of its own.
At this moment, the sound of rotating helicopter blades approached closer and from the corner of his eyes, Han Sheng saw the chopper landing while three people came out of it. A scheming look flitted across his eyes as he said.
''Y-You want to eat someone?" He gulped again as he asked. He could not think of any other thing that this creature would want from him. So, in the end, he assumed it was human flesh that he wanted to eat, ''You eat them... I am old and I won't t-taste good. You eat them. I will bring them to you,'' He slowly pointed his fingers towards the three people who were walking towards them.
Mia looked in the direction his finger was pointing at.
Han Sheng's gaze landed on the cut on the fox's neck. He could not help but think back to the time when he injured Han Jian Yu but it was this fox who ended up being injured along with him. Was it just a coincidence?
But how did a wound appear on her body in that exact place, at that accurate moment when he injured Han Jian Yu? He was confused about it but he did not have much time to contemplate it, not when he was not sure if this strange monster in front of him would take the bait he had just thrown.
''I-I will serve them to you, whoever you want to eat first, I will serve them to you... You can have them but just spare me,'' Since it looked like it understood what he was talking about, Han Sheng kept negotiating.
And as Mia did not move, it hyped up his confidence ''You can eat them however you want to, if you want them minced, I will have them..minced for you. If you want them chopped, I will have them... AHHHHHH...''
His bloodcurdling scream reverberated in the forest as one of his arms was ruthlessly ripped off by Mia.
Blood splashed on her face and as the arm fell to one side, Han Sheng's body convulsed because of pain.
It was unrestrained rage that was reflected in her hazel eyes. Her hatred for this man existed since the day she accidentally looked into Han Jian Yu's memories where he was being beaten by this man. And every time she saw those scars on his body, her hatred for Han Sheng only kept increasing, bit by bit.
And to this day, she never went looking for him but he had to come after her. He had to take her and torture her, use her to lure Yu Mei here and use Yu Mei to lure Jun Zixuan and Han Jian Yu over.
Mia narrowed her eyes as she glanced at the man who was crying and wailing like an animal being slaughtered, her eyes remained nonchalant.
