Standing in the seawater, Li Huowang realized his emotions were being manipulated. He decisively shut his eyes, chanting inwardly, No! I am not angry! I will not get mad!
As he continued to chant, the towering rage in his heart gradually subsided. However, the relief did not last. The moment he opened his eyes and the rain once again dripped into them, an uncontrollable fury surged through him, impossible to dissipate.
He could still think freely, but his emotions were no longer his own.
By this point, the Boat People had vanished, having submerged themselves back into the murky water, which now swarmed with ghostly shadows.
Li Huowang and Scholar Lv frantically slaughtered them, but with each one they killed, the anger in Li Huowang's heart only intensified. It nearly burned away the last of his sanity.
Li Huowang knew this couldn't go on. If things continued this way, he would turn into an irrational, furious madman, and it would all be over.
