Ethereal World: Vicious Cannon Fodder's Immortality Road - Chapter 495

Chapter 495: Xie Xie’s Fantasy (Past) Chapter 495: Xie Xie’s Fantasy (Past) The fantasy in the array formation focused on pulling the deepest fear and regret from the person’s heart.

Once the person failed to surpass their fear, they would endlessly fall into despair.

When they fell into despair, what awaited them was endless pain and heart-wrenching torment.

When they failed to endure this greatest pain, they would choose to escape and change their fate.

In this fantasy, before they fall into the tragic, they will wake up before that happens.

At that time, they could choose to change the ending and change their fate.

Shenlian Yingyue wiped the tears from her face and gave everyone a happy smile as she hugged Xiao Yun in her arms.

Her deepest fear and regret were to never understand Yuan’s last wish.

However, she finally understood the emotions in his eyes that had always been her deepest desire to understand.

She always dreamed back to the moment before Yuan died.

She wondered, if she was a little smart at that time, would she ever be able to understand his emotions?

If she was brave enough to ask, would she regret it until now?

Would she live in pain every day whenever Yuan’s face appeared in her dream and he smiled at her sadly?

Then, at the moment, when she saw Xiao Yun across the street, she knew that she would die miserably if she saved him, but she didn’t hesitate to run and embrace him.

They might think that saving Xiao Yun was her most tragic choice, but they were wrong.

Being able to save Xiao Yun was the greatest and happiest decision she had ever made in her life.

“Xie Xie, A’Yan, everyone, you guys…” She was pulled back from her thoughts when Xiao Yun snuggled in her arms.

She kissed his head and looked at their pale faces.

“Master…” “Sister.” “Yue.” Xie Xie, Shenlian Wanyan, and Helan Yuze looked at her complicatedly before they came and hugged her one by one.

Their hands were still shaking.

The others weren’t different from them.

“What have you been through?” “The second round is finished.

Congratulations for passing the second round!

The third round will begin this evening.

You have one hour to cultivate your soul and mental state.” The voice of the ninth elder rang, and the sun shone on her head as soon as the fantasy array formation disappeared.

This round caused them a lot of mental health issues, and they were extremely exhausted in both their minds and souls.

The pain of the soul was more painful than the pain of the physical body.

There were only two hundred people left on the battle arena.

Each of them sweated profusely, and their faces were as white as the ghosts.

Even Huang Bai Xing’s face was white as a sheet of paper.

……..

Twenty minutes ago [Xie Xie’s Illusion] He stood in the cage that was placed in the huge hall with the dim light.

In front of him, many people wearing the Hanfu uniform that belonged to the killer pavilion looked at him with oppression.

Behind them, a woman sitting on the dark throne looked at him charmingly but dangerously, as if he were just a tool.

Besides him, there were many beasts in the cages as well.

Soon, he knew his fate.

He was forcibly contracted by a human.

“You beast, if you disobey me, I will break your arms.

My lord has the pill to make the beasts regenerate fast, so no matter how many times I break your hands and feet, I don’t have to worry if you lose your power to fight.” The man sneered, and he did what he said.

Xie Xie was under abuse and was forced to kill many people.

He didn’t want to; even if he was just a beast, he didn’t want to kill humans.

But he couldn’t resist the forbidden contract that the cruel woman put on him to let him obey his master.

Many years have passed; he has lived like a corpse since his hands and feet were soaked in the blood of countless innocent people.

When his master died, another man was chosen to be his new master.

The woman kept giving him a new master, and the last master was better than his previous master.

The man didn’t abuse him, but he still ordered him to kill people.

The man smiled sadly: “I have no choice but to obey her.

To save my brother, I can only submit to her.

I know I’m selfish, but I can do everything to make my brother live.” The man was one of the eight killers who failed the mission of catching Yinzhu and was killed by Sikong Yanya.

Later, Yueyue stopped Sikong Yanya from destroying their corpses and scattered the red petals to send them to their next reincarnation.

Ch.

159-160) Xie Xie didn’t respond and ignored the man’s painful eyes.

It didn’t matter.

When this man died, another person would be his new master, and he would still be abused by them.

At first, whenever the man visited his sick brother, he always brought delicious food and healing pills.

Xie Xie, in the contracted space, heard every word clearly.

“Brother, today, I burned a small sect because that sect offended my lord.

Without my contracted beast, I won’t succeed in this mission.

Here is the pill.” “Big brother, I don’t want you to do this.

You hurt people to save me; it’s wrong!

I don’t want you to torture yourself to save me!

I would rather die!” The sick man grasped his brother’s hand.

“Shut up!

I’ve come this far, and I promise to save you!” The man stood up and walked out.

The man continued his mission, and Xie Xie was under his control to kill people.

It continued for five years until Xie Xie arrived at Liming Mountain.

The man ordered him to kill a person in the black cloak.

When he saw that figure, Xie Xie’s emotionless eyes trembled fiercely.

“Master!!” His eyes turned red, and the powerless feeling returned.

He didn’t know where his strength came from.

He refused, with all his might, to hurt a single hair of hers.

The girl looked at him curiously when he called her’master’.

Everyone looked at him confusedly.

“Master…” He called her name softly, and before everyone could react, he rushed over to hug her, and her spiritual power that was summoned to fight with the men hit him fiercely.

“Pff!!” He spat out blood, and his energy core was destroyed by her power.

“You!!” She opened her eyes widely and held his body, regardless of his scary appearance as a scorpion.

Xie Xie smiled lightly, and the illusion cracked open.

The first time he opened his eyes, he saw her tearful face, so he hugged her from behind and waited until she woke up from her fantasy.

The fantasy array formation will crack open when they successfully solve their heart knot and make the right choice.

If they refuse to face the pain, they will fail this task.

CREATORS’ THOUGHTS Littlecarrot Not all villains are bad guys and not all of them deserve the bad ending with no one cares.

Every villain wasn’t born a villain and everyone has the reasons for doing something.

However, in Xie Xie’s master’s case (the killer from the Night Bloom Pavilion, Sikong Yanya’s subordinate), even if he wanted to save his brother, even if he has no choice, he shouldn’t kill people indiscriminately.

It isn’t his fault for wanting to save someone he loved (his little brother) but it’s a big mistake to kill people for archiving his goal.

The pain of losing loved one is inexpressible, he would be in pain if his brother died, but the others will also in pain when their loved ones were killed by him.

His ending was decided.

I let Yueyue burned his corpse and sent him to his road so that he would not die in a misery.

At least, she sent him flowers.

His crime for killing people is unforgivable but his love for his little brother is admirable.

It isn’t a sin to sacrifice something to get something with your hard work but do not implicate the others for your goal.

Once your goal involves with others’ lives and death, that’ll be a sin.

I have no right to judge anyone’s choice and I’m in no position to judge Xie Xie’s previous master’s choice.

However, I stand in the middle position and look at all perspectives.
