King Time

Hand of death

Old Shun's heart was toned as he looked at the weak Liu Mei, but he knew, that there was nothing he could do now, but hoped Liu Mei would get through this.

However, the scene before her eyes did not improve in the slightest, as the death aura emanating from Liu Mei's body grew thicker with each passing second.

The black dragon and the silver-winged panther were both speechless at the sight of his master's wife, whose condition was getting worse.

At the same time, within his mind, Liu Mei felt an immense pain, as if her soul was being hammered endlessly.

At first, he was still able to endure the intense pain, but as time went on, the intensity of the attacks gradually increased.

It was like an ever-increasing crescendo, one that would only stop after completely annihilating his soul.

The gleam of his soul gradually dimmed under the unstoppable attack of 'Spellsinger bird', while Liu Mei could feel the clarity of his mind slowly seeping away from his consciousness.

Countless scenes replayed in his mind, as death was approaching to his soul.

He once again looked at his stern father, who always had a serious expression on his face whenever he talked to him.

His childhood scenes flashed through his eyes, but no matter how much he practiced, or how much effort he put in, it was never good enough for father.

Liu Mei could always feel a disappointing expression engraved in Liu Jian's eyes, as his second wife did not give him a son either. No matter how talented a princess was, she would never let her become a sect master.

The scene immediately changed, and Liu Mei saw her beautiful mother dressed in white.

Therefore, keep from caring about their daughter, Liu Mei's mother always showers her little girl with love and care.

This was Liu Mei's only regret after she chose to leave the 'Floating Cloud Sect.

He always planned to visit her in the future once she became strong enough...

'Mother...'

The scene depicting a white-clothed adult woman immediately faded, and was activated by a handsome young man in green robes.

The greatest genius of the 'Floating Cloud Sect', his cold and arrogant brother, Liu Changpun.

He could still remember the size he idolized his older brother when he was young, while everyone around him preached about the greatest genius of this 'Floating Cloud Sect.

He could still remember the envy he felt, whenever he smiled proudly on the face whenever he saw him facing Liu Changpun.

son, she's just a little girl. How could she not feel envious, when her own father avoided her, but instead praised her own brother.

His life continued to flash in his mind, as he once again the only friend looking at the sect, Lan Jinjing.

She was the only one standing by his side when he rejected the third young master's proposal of the 'Flying Sword Sect', which infuriated her brother.

He also remembered the young master of the Meng family, Meng Shengyi, along with all the other people from the inner city who had tried to seduce him, until the scenery changed once again.

The scene of a handsome and proud young man flashed in his eyes.

From the 'Alchemists' Guild' in the 'Floating cloud sect', to the 'Treasure Pavilion' and finally, within the 'Vermilion realm'.

From then on, the two of them were always together, as they watched the next 4 months beside each other.

From then on, he had actually placed the matter of 'Floating Cloud Sect' at the back of his mind, as he had finally found love.

She smiled gently Shun Every time she held it on her back, as well as her sturdy back every time she sat behind the back of the panther beetle, and involuntarily.

A bright light once again lit up on him, giving some sparkle back to Liu Mei's soul, but under the unrelenting attack of the 'Spellsinger bird', the light immediately dimmed, and nearly extinguished.

''Long... is this death?''

Liu Mei could feel black energy surrounding her soul, trying to figure out the depths of the abyss.

After the soul dies, it will be taken to the abyss of the soul, and will become food for other souls, or will be sent to reincarnate.

This is death!

Liu Mei felt as if a powerful illusory hand, which mingled some sort of dark energy had gripped her soul tightly, was slowly heading down the abyss.

A huge spatial hole had opened beneath Liu Mei's soul, which could only be seen by the people gripped by Death's hand.

This is the bottomless pit.

Liu Mei instinctively tried to struggle, her soul force had been completely drained.

He did not have the strength to resist as he was dragged down.

However, before the hand of death managed to pull him into the abyss, a miraculous thing happened.

A pink-coloured excited energy suddenly appeared in Liu Mei's spiritual space, it completely encapsulated her soul.

Liu Mei's soul seemed to suddenly find a powerful tonic and began to absorb the energy living in the surroundings, as her soul began to regain its luster.

With each passing moment, Liu Mei could feel the tightly gripping hand of death she slowly loosened.

Shun Long's eyes twinkled as he looked at Liu Mei's breathing which was starting to stabilize with himself.

Soon, his breathing began to grow stronger, while continuing to regain those colors.

However, what made Shun Long truly puzzling was that the aura of death around Liu Mei was not getting weaker, but instead, it was getting stronger with each passing breath of time
