Chapter 416 - Illusionary Realm (1/2)

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.
