Chapter 384: It’s Time

Seth’s Soul Sense reached something that had similar properties to a normal barrier; however, he could perfectly feel its special and different traits. Initially It just seemed to be a world-encompassing bloodline barrier, since he could feel it had particular energies that were able to deny anyone that didn’t have the correct bloodline, from entering the huge territory it was protecting.

But something Seth didn’t expected to happen, occurred and his expression changed to one of surprise.

Arwen caught the changes on his countenance and felt inclined to ask about it.

“Is there anything wrong?”

“You could say so. I didn’t expect that the barrier protecting the Illusive Ethereal Sanctuary, could block my Soul Sense from spying on what is it like, on the other side.”

“You found the Illusive Ethereal Sanctuary? That’s good.” Lan Xue seemed to only care about her objective, as she clenched her fists, while her eyes were burning with fighting intent.

Arwen on the other hand, noticed the weird discrepancy that Seth was talking about.

.....

“Are you sure?” She didn’t dare to delve in too deep into that topic, fearing for the worst, but inwardly, she couldn’t help but ask: ‘What was the need of having that barrier, blocking the Soul Sense? Wait... How do they even know about the Soul Sense? I thought it was something that only Seth knew about.’

Seth was thinking something very similar to what Arwen was thinking, but since he knew how hard it was to cultivate the soul, he didn’t expect anyone from the Illusive Ethereal Sanctuary to know about it, or even know that special property engraved in the barrier that protected them. No... Not even the Sanctuary Master should know anything about it.

However, he couldn’t help but recall one of the images he saw in the Glazed Stone that Lan Xue brought him. That purple entity that fought against Darya, the water elemental spirit, was certainly not someone simple.

He nodded towards Arwen, telling her he was sure of it, but inwardly, he was making a mental note to be extra careful, even though it wasn’t his style of doing things.

“Let’s go. I need to get closer, so I could spread my Soul Sense throughout the entire area and see if there are any people guarding the place.”

“Alright.”

The trio resumed their traveling, accelerating through the skies in order to reach their destination faster.

However, when they finally get to reach there, Seth would actually discover that things were not a hundred percent the way that he had expected them to be.

Meiyi woke up inside that desolate room she had come to hate and as she opened her eyes, there were a few signs of tear stains on her face, as if she had been crying the last night or crying when she was in her sleep.

Differently from the normal youthful and energetic Chun Meiyi, now, she stood lying on the bed, still, like a corpse, devoid of any liveliness. These past few days, were easily the worst days of her entire life and even though there were no physical wounds inflicted on her, her mental wounds were getting bigger and bigger. fre(e)webnov(l).com

She was locked inside a room that she hated to the marrow, in an unholy place where no one would know about and forced to wait for something that she didn’t know what it was or when it would be.

Throughout the whole night, her mind kept tormenting her with constant nightmares, showing her the image of her pitiful and bruised father, time and time again. Unfortunately, even though she was vehemently trying to forget everything that she had heard and seen in that room, she couldn’t.

Deep down, she couldn’t shake away the fact that her father, the person she had aways wanted to meet, could actually be experimenting hell in real life. freew ebnove l.com

Every time she thought about that, her body would start to uncontrollably tremble and her mental state would deteriorate, tormented by fear and sadness. If it weren’t for one single thing, one single person, she would certainly be desiring death at that moment.

Like the light at the end of the tunnel, Seth’s figure would come to her mind from time to time, holding the pillars of her sanity up, purging her suicidal thoughts away and giving her hope.

“Seth...”

Meiyi muttered his name, as she looked towards the ceiling. But suddenly, a sound took her out of her reverie and brought her back to her plight.

Knock! Knock! Knock!

After the initial sound of someone knocking on the door, a voice echoed from the outside, stating the reason behind the calling.

“Chun Meiyi... The Sanctuary Master ordered me to call you. He said that it’s time...”

The servant calling for Meiyi, was Xiaosheng. She was assigned to take care of her and her needs, for these past few days. Actually, taking care of Meiyi needs, was a pretense that she had to use in order to cover for the real purpose. The Sanctuary Master had ordered her to observe the girl and stop her from suiciding, if it was necessary.

Xiaosheng didn’t bother trying to muse over that order, since it was fairly common for a few of the girl subjected to such treatment, to take their own lives. However, she was in reality, impressed by the importance the Sanctuary Master had put in Meiyi. The orders she received were so strict, that if she were to take her physical and energetic senses off of Meiyi, for more than a few seconds, she would be severely punished.

Unfortunately, as a servant and with no choice, she was forced to stay awake for the whole time, working without caring for her own health. She had already expended most of her energies, but fortunately for her and unfortunately for that girl, the time has finally come.

Contrary to her expectations, the door opened up quickly and Meiyi’s disheveled figure, left from inside of that room.

Xiaosheng refrained from commenting on her appearance, since she could feel a bit of empathy for that poor girl and immediately started to guide her, towards the final destination.
