Chapter 189: Nightmare (4)
“Let’s go.”
Lu Zhou said these two words and walked towards a direction.
The surroundings were either foggy, or there were only wind and snow one moment, then the brightly s.h.i.+ning sun next. In the blink of an eye, sand and soil were flying everywhere. The weather was extremely bad.
Lu Zhou and Chu Sihan walked forward silently until they were blocked by a transparent boundary.
“This is a boundary. It should be Shenger’s other dream.”
Lu Zhou touched the boundary and spoke.
Chu Sihan asked with a serious expression, “Would breaking this boundary affect Sheng Sheng?”
Lu Zhou nodded. “Yes.”
“What should we do then?”
Chu Sihan was a little nervous. The longer this dragged on, the deeper Lu Sheng would sleep.
If she did not wake up today, she would be trapped in the dream forever.
Unless there was a coincidence, she would probably never wake up.
“I’ll think of something.”
Lu Zhou paced back and forth and suddenly stopped in his tracks.
“Uncle-Master Lu, have you thought of a solution?”
Chu Sihan saw him stop and thought that he had found a way. He asked happily.
Unexpectedly, Lu Zhou pondered for a moment and shook his head. “No.”
Chu Sihan was speechless.
He was happy for nothing.
Lu Zhou found a place to sit down and said calmly, “Looks like we can only wait.”
“Wait?” Chu Sihan frowned and gritted his teeth as he stared at the transparent boundary.
If only he could become stronger!
As if he could see his frustration, Lu Zhou said calmly, “Lad, it’s not that you’re not strong enough. Even if your dad comes, it’s useless.”
His strength was on the same level as the King of Hades. It wasn’t that he couldn’t break this boundary, but if he were to break it rashly, it would only bring harm to Lu Sheng.
They could only wait for Lu Sheng to finish this dream and wait for the Nightmare Beast to remove this boundary so that they could go in and save her.
Lu Zhou said calmly, “It shouldn’t take long.”
As he spoke, an image suddenly appeared in the originally transparent boundary.
Lu Sheng stumbled out of a courtyard with a face full of fear. Behind her was the expressionless “Third Prince” holding the fly-whisk.
Blood was dripping from the clean fly-whisk.
Lu Sheng’s chest was already dyed red with blood.
Lu Zhou’s eyes widened as he stared at the scene before him.
What Chu Sihan saw was ‘himself’ dragging a blood-stained sword, a strange smile on his lips as he leisurely followed behind Lu Sheng.
“Sheng Sheng, wake up, that’s not me!”
He pounded on the boundary with bloodshot eyes.
Lu Zhou, who was about to flare up, suddenly calmed down.
Was he seeing a different scene from Chu Sihan?
This thing was really cunning. It actually created illusions to try and force them to break the boundary.
“Lad, close your eyes! Say the Heart Cleansing Incantation.”
Chu Sihan paused. Although he did not understand, he still closed his eyes obediently.
“Open your eyes again and take a good look.”
Chu Sihan opened his eyes when he heard this. When he focused on the scene inside, he realized that he had returned to the courtyard where ‘he’ and Lu Sheng were sitting opposite each other and drinking tea.
The only difference was that the flowers in the courtyard had bloomed even more brilliantly. The child who was only three or four years old seemed to have grown to seven or eight years old.
Moreover, he wasn’t catching b.u.t.terflies like before, but watering the flowers.
Under the eaves, Lu Sheng was the only one making tea, but there was no sight of ‘him’.
Suddenly, the door of the courtyard was pushed open, and ‘he’ and ‘the Third Prince’ walked in with a smile.
“Father, Grandmaster!”
The boy put down the ladle in his hand and pounced towards the two with a grin.
