"That's right. I've been hiding in the Xiao Family for so long. Did you really think I'd die so easily here, at your hands?"
"What do you think?"
Hearing this, Du Cang's laughter died. A sinister look darkened his withered face. "All the more reason you can't be allowed to live!"
The words had barely faded.
The red light in his eyes flared, and a crimson brilliance spread throughout the entire pocket realm.
The tips of the black, feather-like snowflakes were dyed red.
The thorny vines oozed a dark red liquid.
The towering trees were cloaked in red. Branch after branch twisted and extended, hanging in midair like whips, their tips shaped like blades.
In the next moment, the realm's killing intent erupted:
The black snow fluttered down, seemingly slow but deceptively fast.
The undulating thorny vines tore the ground into ravines.
Those branches stabbed out in unison.
—Their target: Chen Yi!
Chen Yi, in contrast, stared intently at Du Cang's position.
