"How should we deal with this, shouldn't we take all this back to their criminal police team?" Ye Tian asked.

"What's the point of taking it back? These people brought it upon themselves," Xiaoqian's voice was calm and smooth.

"What do you mean by that?" Ye Tian was very angry.

Why? What does it mean they brought it upon themselves? Regardless of what these people did before, haven't they already been punished? Aren't they all already dead?

"It means nothing. Just destroy the cave first, you'll understand what I mean later."

"Xiaoqian! I always treated you as a child, I never thought you could be so cold and heartless!" Ye Tian clenched his fists hard, just to control himself from hitting that face.

"Do you know what this monster is?" Xiaoqian stared at Ye Tian, "I know you've seen too much life and death, and I know you value human life very much, but some people, if they don't die, will cause many more to die, do you understand?"

"But these people are innocent; they were just eaten by the monster."

"I won't argue with you anymore, you'll understand when you see the monster."

Xiaoqian didn't wait for Ye Tian; she went down the mountain alone, and it wasn't until evening that the two of them began to talk properly, Xiaoqian repeatedly assured that they would see the monster that night.

The three people walked slowly on the most secluded path, accompanied only by one or two cats in heat making sounds like baby's cries.

A wisp of blue smoke drifted by, and Ye Tian felt like he was left alone there.

"Xiaoqian. Fatty Xu?" Ye Tian called out anxiously, but heard no echo; he started running, and saw a figure from behind not far away.

That silhouette was very familiar, and the suit accentuated the woman's curves; the woman turned around, and it was surprisingly Tang Su.

"Susu…" Ye Tian struggled to call out the woman's name, as if practicing every day, but when he actually said it, he didn't know how to make a sound.

"Ye Tian." Tang Su's smile was still so dazzling, "Are you finally willing to come see me?"

"I..."

"Shh!" Tang Su's slender finger touched Ye Tian's lips, making him swallow his words, "Are you happy to see me?"

Ye Tian nodded desperately, his dreams were filled with her shadow.

"I know you have thousands of reasons to leave me, but as long as there's one reason, I will never leave you. Because I love you."

The warm and fragrant embrace should have been Ye Tian's haven, but he thought of his deceased brothers, and when he opened his eyes, Tang Su was gone...

This is an Illusion Realm! Ye Tian realized. He was actually at the training grounds he shared with his teammates.

Ye Tian bit his tongue hard, not daring to look down anymore; although he knew it was fake, he truly wished they were still alive.

The taste of blood quickly filled his mouth; he couldn't believe it was all fake, all fake…

Ye Tian felt someone touching his hand, he executed a maneuver and knocked the person to the ground, and upon opening his eyes, he saw Xiaoqian glaring at him furiously, and Fatty Xu was still half-asleep nearby.

"Are you sick?" Xiaoqian struggled to get up and started hitting Ye Tian, but her punches felt more like a massage.

"Why is it you?" Ye Tian felt embarrassed; he had used all his strength and must have hurt her.

"What do you mean why is it me? If I wasn't by your side, you would have become a corpse by now!" Xiaoqian was angry, her whole body aching; Ye Tian had treated her like a punching bag.

"Really?" Ye Tian didn't believe it, was his willpower that weak?

"Don't be in disbelief!" Xiaoqian saw Ye Tian's doubt, "Do you now understand why I said those people brought it upon themselves?"

Ye Tian shook his head, shouldn't people have their own desires? He was clear that the Illusion Realm was based on the desires of each person, fulfilling whatever they wanted.

"The dead were different from us, they were all hoodlums and rascals, they didn't do any good deeds in life; although their manner of death was cruel, it's still better than them harming more people."

"How do you know?"

"You've always wanted to know what my ability is, right? I can see your heart, see your desires, see your past," Xiaoqian's voice carried a bewitching power in the night.

"Don't you think you sound like a witch?" Ye Tian laughed.

"Suit yourself," Xiaoqian waved her hand impatiently.

"So why don't you wake Fatty Xu up before the monster... if he wakes up, he will definitely try to kill it, but I don't want to kill it. I want to keep it."

"..."

"Get lost, go fight," Xiaoqian shooed Ye Tian away as if she was dealing with a small dog, then she sat by the roadside watching Fatty Xu.

Ye Tian rolled his eyes and moved towards the dense mist. He watched his surroundings cautiously; the dense fog was so thick that you couldn't see your own hand.

"Holy crap!" Ye Tian reached the end, and saw a person, yes, a person, quite short but taller than an average dwarf, covered in hair, like an incompletely evolved being.
