Chapter 688: Chapter 311 World of Dead Qi

Blood froth flew in all directions, Han Xianyun’s forehead was dripping wet.

He touched his forehead and there was another large patch of blood.

Only then did he seriously look towards Qi Yuan, his expression somewhat bewildered, "My wife?"

"Yes, your wife. Ah, my hand was too heavy. She couldn’t withstand it, such a pity. You’d better collect some, to hold onto as a memory," Qi Yuan said casually.

Blood froth flew about, yet not a single drop landed on Qi Yuan. The crimson Longsword had vanished, and he stood in this space as if he were a celestial being exiled from the heavens.

Only, the words of this ’celestial being’ were somewhat mad and raving, hard to fathom.

At this moment, the injured Yu Xiu struggled to get up. He looked towards Qi Yuan, his eyes filled with a reverent awe, "Thank you, my lord, for saving my life!"

Yu Xiu’s head was still buzzing, somewhat shaken.

Qi Yuan’s gaze fell upon Yu Xiu, "Can you tell me about... the hidden map?"

"I..." Yu Xiu looked puzzled.

This almost god-like being actually didn’t know...

"My lord, my name is Yu Xiu. This matter is too complicated to explain in a short time. Once the Curse ends, this place will shatter.

The next time I come out, I will surely find you, my lord, and inform you of the details."

Yu Xiu spoke quickly because he felt he was about to return.

At that moment, his body became transparent, and then... disappeared without a trace.

The entire space also collapsed at that moment.

The surroundings of Qi Yuan and Han Xianyun once again became the previous alley.

Han Xianyun covered his head; he was still not fully awakened.

Especially upon waking, he felt dizzy and disoriented, as if he had suffered a massive attack.

It felt as if everything had been but a dream.

He looked at Qi Yuan, his mind in turmoil, "Just now... did we enter a special space, or was it my fantasy?"

He suspected he was delusional, lost in wild thoughts.

After all, his current state was quite poor, his head heavy and his mind light.

Of course, this state was actually because Qi Yuan had startled him with a shout.

"Your wife is still on your head, how can it be a fantasy? Could it be you want to be a heartless man, irresponsible?" Qi Yuan smiled whimsically.

...

The weather was gloomy, and the winds howled furiously.

Within the ancient fortress, there lay a cluster of cramped buildings.

The walls of the fortress were inscribed with various strange creatures.

There was a terrifying fish with six pairs of wings, and there were majestic beings with the faces of lions and the bodies of humans.

In the middle of an open space within the fortress, suddenly, spatial fluctuations rippled through, and a figure fell from the sky.

About a dozen breaths later, four people gathered on this open ground.

"Yu Xiu? Weren’t you on vacation in the real world, attempting to break the Curse? How did you come back so quickly?"

"And what happened to your injuries? Are these... wounds left by the Executioner Axemos?"

The two men and two women present all looked at Yu Xiu with surprise in their eyes.

Only a tall woman with braided hair showed a face full of concern.

"Some complications arose while breaking the Curse," Yu Xiu obviously didn’t want to tell these people everything.

"Alas, we are about to be assigned outward for missions. At this time... you’re injured again. What will we do for the next mission?" a robust man’s eyes revealed a complicated look, his gaze filled with worry.

The rest felt the same way.

The five of them currently belonged to a team, and the injury to a main fighter greatly affected their mission.

At this moment, a thin man spoke up, "Forget about the mission. I estimate even before the mission starts, our... fortress will be broken."

At this mention, the faces of those present slightly changed.

The fortress was their sanctuary and protected them from the erosion of the outside world.

However, lately, the number of missions completed by the residents within the fortress was dwindling.

The energetic source of the fortress’s blood formation was running low, growing weaker.

The horrific monsters lurking in the darkness of the night would probably break through the fortress’s blood formation before long.

At that time, the residents of the fortress would likely suffer heavy casualties.

And they would have no choice but to become wanderers, their futures uncertain.

"Those are Martial Elite Level monsters, even stronger than the Executioner Axemos. Our small fortress simply won’t hold!" the woman with the braids said solemnly.

"Who knows what those above are planning," one person sighed.

Then, Yu Xiu, holding his wound, spoke, "Nana and I are going back to heal first, no more talking."

Upon hearing this, the braided woman, without any hesitation, hoisted Yu Xiu onto her shoulder and the two headed towards a cramped room inside the fortress.

When they got back to the room and confirmed that there was no one around, Yu Xiu let out a sigh of relief.

An Lianna’s face was filled with urgency, "Yu Xiu, what exactly happened to you?

Were these wounds left by the Executioner Axemos?"

An Lianna’s face seemed to hold a hundred thousand ’whys.’

She was intimately familiar with Yu Xiu’s strengths and was well aware of a few of his trump cards.

She knew that if Yu Xiu had been punished, he would not have gotten away so lightly.

"Nana, do you think someone in the real world could kill Axemos?" Yu Xiu asked, recalling the scene he had witnessed in the punishment space.

"That’s impossible. Axemos is, after all, considered Martial Elite Level. In major missions, he would be a big boss, while the real world is populated by mere mortals," An Lianna clearly didn’t believe someone in the real world could kill Axemos.

Upon hearing this, Yu Xiu fell silent for a bit before he said, "Axemos was killed by a person from the real world with a single sword strike..."
