553 Nightmares (1/2)

Shangguan Fei had a series of nightmares. In order to escape from that terrible scene, hespent the last of the will power he had, fighting to transformthe dreaminto a Stone Castle, somewhere which once made him comfortable.

However, theStone Castle had changed. No matter how much he tried, he could not control the falling stones of the castle, the crowds who were mutually killing each other, the blood that covered the sky, the father, and even the Supreme King wholoomed larger now than ever before. He walked slowly towards him while slicing any one that he came across, his mother seemed near yet far, and enthusiastically shouted, ”you have not killed enough!”

In his dreams, no one cared about Shangguan Fei, even his mother. Only the Supreme King walked closer and closer, killinga person at every step.

His feet were firmly rooted to the ground and it was hard to move...

Shangguan Fei with abruptly, sweating profusely, his skinburning hotyet his internal organs felt like falling ice cubes. His chest started to heave dramatically when saw the people before him, seeming even more frightening than his dream. He said,”Supreme King, you are the Supreme King!”

He saw the first face overlapping with the Supreme King's face in his dream and from then on, could not remember who that face belonged to.

Old man Mu gave Shangguan Fei a tight slap and said hastily. ”Wake up, this is Dragon King not Supreme King.”

Shangguan Fei finally woke up completely, remembering how he had wanted to escape the dream in order to escape the external heat and inner freezing. But the reality of thetorment now returned, even though weakened but even more frightening that that of the dream as he cried out, ”Dragon King, save me.”

Shangguan Fei cried out so desperately thattheDragon King seemed to have become an omnipotent god.

Gu Shenwei's had suffered for years, so it was hard sympathizing with thatof another so he said just calmly,”You won't die, just endure it.”

”Really?”Shangguan Fei replied in disbelief.

”It's true.” said Old man Mu whilebeaming, the only happy person in the tent. ”Once every few orseveral days, or even a few years, you would be possessed once, it will get worse and worse and you might even become an addiction when you get usedto it.” He continued.

”I don't want to get possessed,” Shangguan Fei said,looking like a child who hadgot shocked and wanted to stubbornly protest the adults' arrangements.

”Your martial arts skills are now the best, why would you be afraid of Qigong Deviation? After all, you won't die after an hour and a half. You can enjoy slowly and pursue your freedom...” said old man Mu as he stopped in time. He had always forgotten how he had changed himself and not become a devil. ”Be a good human, stay on the righteous path, and strive for eternal fame and prestige.” He added.

”I don't want mystical power or fame. Dragon King, take these things away quickly. I have already trained for you.” Shangguan Fei said as he held his chest with two hands, as if the true qi in his body was a wart and could be cut off at any point in time to give to someone.

He knew the reasons behind Qigong Deviation but did not dare to accuse the two culprits. His thoughts were simple. Dragon King andthe Lotus ladycould let themselves suffer and naturally wouldrelieve the pain.

”Give me a punch,” saidGu Shenwei, wanting to see how strong Shangguan Fei's 'divine powers' were.

Shangguan Fei curled into a body, yieldingas heclearly remembered the scene the previous night of a living human body being torn apart into four or five pieces with flesh and blood strewn all over him.

He had beaten someone to death beforebut the other party suffered internal organ damage and looked okay on the exterior which wasn't frightening.

”The Dragon King is healing you. Give him a punch.” TheLotus lady said,understanding Shangguan Fei's thoughts, her tone effective even though cold.

”Really?” said Shangguan Fei witheyes brightenedas he saw theDragon King andnodded. He stood up finally and punched the Dragon King.

This blow was so weak, Old Man Mu could not bear seeing it any longer thus he questioned, ”What are you doing? Teasing the Dragon King? Use force so your illness canbe diagnosed.You can't even kill a fly like this.”

Shangguan Fei's second blow did not increase in speed butthe strength it contained was extremely huge. Gu Shenwei crossed his arms and received the blow.

”Look, the Dragon King is the Dragon King, do you wish topunch him todeath? Don't dream...” Old man Mu said with hisflattery stopped because he saw that the Dragon King looked bad.

Gu Shenwei's face flashed red then became pale, his whole body turning to ice.

”I, I didn't mean to, Dragon King let me.” Shangguan Fei said, shirking his responsibility quickly at the same time worryingthat the Dragon King was really dead, who else would be able to save themselves.

Moments later, Gu Shenwei recovered and his face turned normal, butknew thatit would be brought forward the next time he went into Qigong Deviation. Shangguan Fei's eccentric and strong force ignited the icy power in his body which made it almost unbearable.

Gu Shenwei looked at the Lotus lady in the eye,understanding each other's thoughts.This set of strange powerswas to be practised soon but the loophole had to be closed before that.

”Yu Zhen Ren can cure Shangguan Fei's Qigong Deviation?” Gu Shenwei said, heonly knew the name of this immortal from the North Courtbut did not more.
