Chapter 128 - It’s Not Me
The flames continued to burn around Li Huowang, his appearance gradually turning more and more like that of the charred Shou San.
Everything in his field of vision began to distort; however, it was unknown whether it was due to ingesting the pill or being doused in flames.
At the same time, the skeletons around him that should have been lifeless suddenly started growing like trees, twisting in bizarre ways as they grew. Please visit fr𝐞𝐞wn.𝒸o𝔪 website to read fastest update
“Ah... ah... ah!”
As Li Huowang howled, the flames seemed to find an entrance and directly burrowed inside him, burning his inner organs.
“Little Xuan Yang, it’s time.” Shou San walked over and retrieved the Profound Records from Li Huowang’s waist, placing it before him.
At that moment, as Li Huowang peered through the flames, he felt like he was being tortured in hell. In this state, the Profound Records he saw did not look like an arranged row of bamboo slips, but a pile of quivering flesh worms. Strange words were written on them as they arranged themselves neatly into extremely strange-looking slips of flesh.
“This... What the heck is going on!” shouted Li Huowang. He felt like his brain was turning to mush. No, perhaps the scorching heat of the flames had already turned his brain to mush.
Meanwhile, disciples of the Ao Jing Sect had taken off their gowns, and were approaching them from all directions. They sat down around Li Huowang in an orderly fashion with their disfigured bodies.
However, in Li Huowang’s view, they had all turned into various sorts of flesh-mangled monsters.
Shou San looked at Li Huowang being burned by the flames, and then took a step backward. “Little friend, don’t forget the objective for which you came to our sect. Now, the opportunity is ripe; it’s time to open the door to the Abyss of Worldly Suffering and meet Ba-Hui once again.”
Li Huowang looked at him through the flames and shouted, “You lied to me?! You’ve been lying to me about everything?!”
“No, I did not lie to you. It’s just that coincidentally this was a very good opportunity and that we leapt onto it as well. Don’t you want to get rid of your Master? As long as you summon Ba-Hui, the elders will have a way to get rid of Dan Yangzi who is entangled with your body,” replied Shou San.
Hearing this, Li Huowang howled in extreme agony. Then, he raised his charred hands and gently pressed them onto those flesh worms full of inscriptions.
At that moment, both the pain in Li Huowang’s body and mind gradually started to morph into something else, just like before. At the same time, an extremely terrifying and desolate aura started to be emitted from Li Huowang’s body, causing everyone present to shudder as they felt this other-worldly strength.
Whoo... whoo...
Li Huowang panted, still reeling from the shock.
He finally had a chance to catch his breath amidst all that torment.
At this point, he wanted to do nothing and just rest quietly.
“Son? Are you awake?” Sun Xiaoqin was surprised to see that her son was not in his usual crazed state.
Li Huowang turned to his mom with a complex expression. “Mom, do you know? I really don’t want to go back there. I’m tired of living there.”
Hearing this, Sun Xiaoqin hugged him tenderly, “It’s alright, don’t be afraid. It was all a hallucination. It’s all fake.”
Li Huowang closed his eyes and took a deep breath. Truthfully, he really wanted to escape now; he did not want to suffer anymore. Compared to the peace and quiet here, as well as his own family and Yang Na, the other world was simply hell.
Remembering the events from before, Li Huowang’s expression once again became filled with pain. “Mom... Who do you think I am?”
“You are Li Huowang! My son,” replied Sun Xiaoqin.
“Then, what sort of person is your son?” Li Huowang’s agonized voice carried a trace of confusion.
Sun Xiaoqin stroked her son’s head. “Li Huowang is a good child. He is sincere, responsible, and hardworking at his studies. Do you remember that afternoon in junior high? That day on the bus...”
As he listened to his mother’s words, Li Huowang began to recall various things he had done in the past. He had experienced so much after going there, so much so that he had even forgotten what sort of person he had been.
He had changed, and not for the better. It was not just due to Dan Yangzi’s influence, but also because of that world.
Slowly, his gaze gradually grew resolute.
That’s right... This is me. The real Li Huowang.
That suspicious, foolish, and easily deceived person with no moral values is not me. That is Dan Yangzi. It’s not me!
