Chapter 499: Master Menghua, are you testing my willpower?
Lei Dong was shocked. Although he knew it was an illusion, Vinina's appearance still made his heart beat faster.
"Venina..."
He called out in a low voice, with a hint of mixed emotions in his voice.
Vinina walked to Lei Dong and gently took his arm: "Lei Dong, is there something important that brought you back this time?"
Lei Dong was about to answer when he suddenly felt a strong sense of dizziness.
He realized that he was being affected by the power of the Law of Illusionary Sound. If he did not break free in time, he would probably fall into a deeper illusion.
"No, I have to break free!"
Lei Dong said secretly in his heart, and then activated the power of the laws in his body, trying to break through the constraints of the illusion.
At this moment, Meng Yao's voice rang in his ears: "Master Lei, how is this illusion? Does it make you feel a little nostalgic?"
Lei Dong's heart trembled, and he quickly responded: "Master, although this illusion is beautiful, it is ultimately illusory.
I still need to continue exploring the ruins, so I dare not delay."
Meng Yao's voice was filled with a hint of smile: "Mr. Lei is indeed determined. In this case, I will not embarrass you anymore."
As soon as she finished speaking, the illusion in front of Lei Dong's eyes disappeared instantly, and he returned to the ruins.
As soon as Meng Yao's voice fell, the illusion in front of Lei Dong's eyes disappeared instantly, and he returned to the ruins.
However, just as he breathed a sigh of relief, Mengyao's face suddenly turned pale.
Her body trembled slightly, as if she was trapped in some kind of fear that she could not extricate herself from.
"How is this going?"
The scene in front of Mengyao's eyes suddenly changed.
She seemed to have returned to that distant childhood, surrounded by a familiar planetary scene - that was her hometown, a once prosperous planet.
However, at this moment the planet is shrouded in a shadow of destruction.
"no, do not want……"
Mengyao's voice trembled, as if a whisper was squeezed out from the depths of her throat.
Her eyes were filled with fear and despair, as if she had witnessed the devastating disaster again.
In the sky, countless warships were pressing in like dark clouds, artillery fire roared, and the entire planet was shaking in the violent explosions.
Her tribesmen, her loved ones, fell one by one in the flames, and their screams and cries mixed together like the elegy of hell.
"Father...Mother..."
Mengyao's voice was filled with endless sorrow, and she hugged her shoulders tightly with her hands, as if trying to resist the inescapable fear.
Her body trembled slightly, as if she felt the helplessness and despair of the disaster again.
Her people were once the guardians of this star region, possessing great power and glory.
However, that day came and everything was gone. The hostile forces suddenly arrived and launched a devastating attack without any warning.
Her father, the once-mighty patriarch, pushed her into the escape pod at the last moment, but remained in the sea of fire.
"Stay alive...Yao'er..."
That was her father's last voice, and along with the roar of the explosion, it was forever etched in her memory.
Tears silently fell from Mengyao's eyes, and her body seemed to be suffocated by an invisible force.
She clasped her arms tightly with her fingers, her nails digging deep into her skin, but she didn't feel any pain.
"Why...why am I the one who survived..."
Her voice was low and hoarse, as if she was questioning fate and herself.
Her heart was filled with endless guilt and pain, as if she was a survivor of the disaster, carrying an unbearable burden.
Lei Dong stood aside, looking at Meng Yao's painful appearance, his heart filled with shock and anxiety.
He had never seen such a vulnerable side of Mengyao, the usually aloof and unfathomable owner of Menghua Tower.
But at this moment I am like a helpless child, immersed in the fear of the past.
"It turns out that compared to my peach blossom dream, the OP's dream is more real!"
A thunderous sound was heard, and it turned out that he was the one who did it.
Playing illusions in front of people above the sacrificial path ended up backfired, right?
The thunderous sound echoed in the ruins, carrying with it a hint of mockery and helplessness.
He stood beside Mengyao, watching her fall into a painful illusion with complicated eyes, feeling shocked and a hint of guilt in his heart.
"It turns out... the host actually has such deep pain hidden in his heart."
Lei Dong murmured softly, a complex emotion flashing in his eyes.
He originally just wanted to test Mengyao's strength.
However, she didn't expect that the laws of her own illusion would backfire on her and drag her into the deepest fear in her heart.
Mengyao's body was still shaking slightly, tears silently falling from her eyes, as if she was immersed in the devastating disaster and unable to extricate herself.
Her fingers were tightly clasped around her arms, blood seeping from her nails, but she seemed not to feel the pain.
"Father...Mother..."
Mengyao's voice was low and hoarse, as if she was calling for a loved one who had long passed away.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Her body curled up slightly, as if trying to resist the inescapable fear.
Lei Dong looked at Mengyao's painful appearance, his heart filled with anxiety and guilt.
He had inadvertently touched the deepest pain in Mengyao's heart, and this pain was far deeper than he had imagined.
"Mengyao, don't you want to wake up..."
Lei Dong called out in a low voice, trying to wake Meng Yao's consciousness.
However, Mengyao seemed unable to hear his voice and was still immersed in the illusion of destruction.
Lei Dong's heart sank, realizing that he had to find a way to save her as soon as possible.
Otherwise, Mengyao might be completely swallowed up by this illusion and fall into eternal confusion.
At this moment, Mengyao's body suddenly trembled violently.
There was a glimmer of clarity in her eyes, as if she was struggling to get rid of the illusion.
"No...I can't...I can't be bound by the past..."
Mengyao's voice was low and firm, as if she was fighting against the fear in her heart.
Her fingers were tightly clasped around her arms, blood seeping from her nails, but she seemed not to feel the pain.
"Lord Landlord!"
Lei Dong called again, with a hint of urgency in his voice.
Mengyao's body shook slightly, as if she heard the sound of thunder.
There was a trace of struggle in her eyes, then she slowly raised her head and her gaze gradually regained focus.
"Thunder... Young Master Lei..."
Mengyao's voice was weak and hoarse, as if she had just experienced a life-and-death struggle.
Her body was still trembling slightly, but the fear in her eyes had gradually dissipated.
Lei Dong breathed a sigh of relief and quickly stepped forward to hold Meng Yao's shoulders: "Master, are you okay?"
Mengyao nodded slightly, her voice still a little weak: “I…I’m fine.
It’s just… I’m trapped by the memories of the past and can’t break free for the moment.”
There was a hint of fatigue in her voice, as if she had just experienced a great exhaustion.
Lei Dong's heart moved, and he asked in a low voice: "Master, what did you see just now?"
Meng Yao was silent for a moment, then slowly said: "That is...
My former hometown and the devastating disaster that happened there. "
Her voice was low and hoarse, as if she was recalling a past event that she didn't want to mention.
It seems that everyone has a story!
