“Waa! Waa!”
Suddenly, a sound similar to a baby’s cry sounded.
A black shadow darted out from behind the stove on Han Zhao’s right. It attacked him head-on, and the strong wind formed by Yin energy whistled in his ears.
“No!” Seeing the true qi accumulate in Han Zhao’s palm, the middle-aged woman, who was almost translucent, suddenly rushed in. In the end, he was pushed to the ground by the black shadow.
The black shadow was a baby.
However, he could no longer be called human. His body was pitch-black, and his eyes were dark and terrifying. At this moment, he was biting the middle-aged woman crazily.
“My child…”
“Namo Amitabha…” Han Zhao closed his eyes and chanted the Afterlife
Incantation.
When he read it for the ninth time, the beast-like roars in his ears stopped abruptly.
The middle-aged woman who was carrying the ‘baby’ knelt on the ground. Her mouth kept opening and closing as if she was saying something.
However, her body quickly disappeared with the ‘baby’.
Where the two of them had disappeared, a small two-foot-square blanket was left behind. It looked like a baby’s swaddling clothes.
Han Zhao walked forward and picked up the swaddling clothes.
A pure and rich Yin energy surged into his body. He used the Essence Soul Bead to store this Yin energy.
“Demon…” Looking at the swaddling cloth in his hand that had lost its Yin energy, Han Zhao clenched his fists and put it into the Sumeru Pouch.
After confirming that the Yin energy and resentment had disappeared, he left the hall and returned to the manor.
“Hahaha!” Su Tianqi was still laughing.
The others had already woken up from their dreams one after another. Their faces were pale as if they had just recovered from a serious illness.
Especially the few people who had been bitten by strange dogs in their dreams. They were still lying on the ground, wailing and unable to get up.
“Junior Brother Han!”
When Xu Ling saw Han Zhao come out of the manor, how could she not understand that he had saved this group of people?
“How are they?” Han Zhao went forward to check.
“I don’t know. They weren’t injured, but all of them said that it hurt. Their flesh was bitten off,” Xu Ling explained, looking a little afraid.
In the dream, what she hoped for the most first appeared—to grow old with Han Zhao and have children and grandchildren.
Then, she was abandoned by Han Zhao on their wedding night. Hell was nothing more than this.
After Han Zhao checked their bodies and saw that Xu Ling’s eyes were red, he reacted and reached out to caress her face. He smiled gently. “It’s all an illusion. It’s impossible. Don’t be afraid.”
“Yes.” Xu Ling nodded heavily.
Han Zhao stood up, feeling a chill in his heart.
This dream demon’s ability exceeded his imagination. These people were bitten by strange dogs in the dream, and the pain actually extended to reality.
Otherwise, it was impossible to explain why these people did not have any external injuries but looked like they were twitching in pain.
“Hahahaha!”
At this moment, Han Zhao turned around and looked over. Su Tianqi was still laughing. Clearly, he had not woken up from the dream.
Just as he was about to go forward and wake him up, he realized that Su
Ningqiu had walked forward and pinched the soft flesh on Su Tianqi’s waist.
A pig-like scream sounded. Su Tianqi woke up from the pain and knelt on the ground.
He clutched his waist, his body arching like a maggot.
“Cousin! Are you trying to murder your husband?” Su Tianqi looked at Su Ningqiu with tears in his eyes.
In his dream, he was ranked first on the Heavenly Rankings and had successfully returned from the Qian Heaven Palace. Martial God was already in sight, but he felt a knife in his waist and his dream was instantly shattered.
“I was afraid that you would be hurt in your dream, so…” Su Ningqiu was a little embarrassed.
“Do you know that you’ve been stronger than ordinary people since you were young? Aren’t you afraid that you’ll cause problems for me?” Su Tianqi cried.
“I’m sorry…” Su Ningqiu lowered her head.
Seeing this, Su Tianqi couldn’t say anything else. He looked at Han Zhao, who was unscathed, and changed the topic. “By the way, Brother Han, where’s the dream demon?”
“It’s already been killed by Brother Lang,” Han Zhao said in a low voice. “He went to the vicinity to check on the situation.”
“As expected of Brother Lang!” Su Tianqi gave him a thumbs up. “Brother Han is also more courageous than others. If you hadn’t broken the stalemate in the dream, I’m afraid we would have to shed a layer of skin to wake up.”
“Brother Su, you’re too polite.” Han Zhao nodded and turned to look at Xu Ling. “This mission is canceled. Take those who can move back to Blackrock City and set off now.
“Bring those who can’t move to the manor. Brother Lang and I will stay behind and let them rest in the manor for a day before bringing them back.”
The simulation showed that the people from the Longevity Sect would come to the manor to check on the situation.
Since that was the case, he would capture them all here.
As for the people who were injured in the dream, they could not withstand the bumps of the carriage and ox cart, or they would die halfway.
“…” Xu Ling looked at Han Zhao’s serious expression. After a moment of silence, she nodded. “Okay.”
With that said, Xu Ling said to the dispirited crowd, “Those who can still walk, move now. Let’s return to Blackrock City.”
“We’re going back?!” “Good! Good!”
“This place is too terrifying!”
Everyone who was still in shock nodded repeatedly.
The martial artists who were unable to move because of their injuries were worried. If they were to stay in such a godforsaken place for another day, their lives would probably be shortened by ten years.
However, when they thought about how Han Zhao and Lang Fanyun stayed here for them, everyone could not help but feel touched.
In such a dangerous situation, he did not abandon them.
“Let’s move quickly. I’ll be there soon.” Han Zhao gestured for Xu Ling to leave.
Xu Ling did not hesitate and helped the martial artists who could still move carry the ten immobile people into the manor.
After only lifting it for a short distance, these people could not help but cry out in pain. It was so painful that their bodies trembled.
“Brother Su, you should go back with us,” Han Zhao said seriously.
When Su Tianwen heard this, his eyes were a little conflicted. Then, he shook his head. “Brother Han, Cousin, and I will stay behind to help you and Brother Lang.”
“This… Alright,” Han Zhao muttered. In the simulation, although he had won against a group of Longevity Sect disciples, he had suffered light injuries.
However, this was before he added points. After adding points, it should be fine.
With a helper at the Greater Mastery of Force Tempering, he could reduce some pressure.
Su Tianqi seemed to be a good person at the moment.
His performance in the simulation was very poor, but he was not a despicable person.
It could be handed over.
“Cousin…” Su Ningqiu pulled Su Tianqi to the side and whispered, “Cousin, shouldn’t you be hiding when you encounter such a thing? Why are you staying?”
“How can you retreat when you encounter danger? Doesn’t that mean you don’t have any desire to work hard and improve?” Su Tianqi said in a low voice.
“This… That’s not what you said before, right?” Su Ningqiu was stunned.
Su Tianqi’s expression was a little solemn. “According to the ancient books, wherever a dream demon appears, there will definitely be corpses lying like mountains and resentment soaring into the sky.”
“This is also the place where the Longevity Sect appeared. It is very likely related to the Longevity Sect.”
“Since Brother Han and Brother Lang stayed behind, it is obvious that they have confidence. This meant that the risk is controllable, so I choose to stay behind to help.”
“After all, we came this time to deal with the Longevity Sect. We can’t retreat at the slightest risk.”
“There’s a difference between being steady and weak.”
“Alright…” Su Ningqiu nodded.
“Brother Su, I’ll go out and see if Brother Lang has returned.” Han Zhao walked forward and found an excuse to go out and release his avatar.
“Alright, we’ll take care of the injured,” Su Tianqi replied.
“Thanks a lot..”
