The hall was eerily silent. The girl stood in the middle of the wailing crowd on the ground. Blood dripped from her fingertips. Every drop seemed to have a sound, dripping into Shi Xuan's heart.
He couldn't help but take a few steps back. She had grown into such a monster in just a few years.
Yes, a monster.
There were so many people, but none of them could beat her. If she wasn't a monster, what was she?
Shi Xuan retreated to a chair, but there was nowhere to go. A chill ran down his spine, calming him down. Why was he afraid of her?
He hadn't lived so many years in vain.
Shi Xuan calmed himself down and took off his jacket. "I shouldn't have believed you."
Shi Sheng wiped the blood off her fingers. She threw the blood-stained handkerchief to the ground and stepped on it. "You were too conceited."
She was so weak at that time that he could kill her with a finger. Shi Xuan was conceited enough to think that she would remain weak.
"Cut the crap!" Shi Xuan was hit where it hurt, and his expression was extremely ugly as he snorted coldly.
Shi Sheng rushed toward Shi Xuan. Shi Xuan's pupils contracted, but he didn't panic because of his years of experience and strength.
The two of them exchanged blows in the hall. Shi Xuan had just watched Shi Sheng take down the others. She didn't seem to use much skill or strength, but when he faced her himself, he realized that Shi Sheng's attack speed and angle were extremely tricky.
Most importantly, he couldn't figure out the pattern. Even someone like him who had been on the battlefield for a long time was a little overwhelmed.
Bang!
The centuries-old sandalwood table in the hall shattered. Wood chips flew in all directions as a fist came toward him. Shi Xuan clenched his fist and twisted it to the side. But at that moment, he felt a sharp pain in his abdomen.
Shi Xuan sucked in a breath and looked down at his abdomen.
Blood soaked his clothes and spread out.
"You …" Shi Xuan clutched his abdomen and took a step back. He gritted his teeth and said, "You cheated!"
Shi Sheng suddenly held a knife in her hand. This was the knife that Shi Mu had given her. She had been carrying it with her all this time.
"The rules didn't forbid the use of weapons in the beginning. Besides, I'm here for revenge, not to compete with you. "Therefore, there was no such thing as a fair duel!
Shi Sheng stepped forward again and grabbed Shi Xuan's arm. Shi Xuan wanted to resist, but he had no strength and could only let Shi Sheng drag him along.
"I forgot to tell you, I applied some medicine on the knife."
Shi Xuan's eyes burned with rage. He suddenly sneered savagely. "Do you think I don't have any life-saving methods?"
He quickly pressed a button on his personal terminal, and Shi Sheng's body suddenly lost its balance and fell downwards. Darkness invaded him, and Shi Xuan took the opportunity to break free from Shi Sheng.
Shi Sheng heard the sound of something heavy falling to the ground, but by the time she touched the ground to check, Shi Xuan had already disappeared.
Shi Sheng looked up. The place where she had fallen had closed. She didn't know how high it was, but judging from the speed of her fall, it was very high. She shouldn't be able to climb up.
Since Shi Xuan dared to follow her down, it proved that there was an exit below.
…
Shi Sheng found that the tunnels below were connected in all directions, and each path led to a different place.
At first, she was just walking casually, but later on, a voice in her heart kept guiding her in a certain direction.
Shi Sheng thought of the door.
After losing Shi Le, she was pulled into the space with the silver path again. This time, she saw something else. She knew how to open the door that Shi Xuan had mentioned.
Now, was it going to guide her to that door?
Shi Sheng took a deep breath and decided to follow the guidance of her heart.
She calculated the time. After walking through the twisting tunnels for more than an hour, the tunnel in front of her began to widen, and there was light in front of her.
Shi Sheng took a deep breath and stepped into the light.
The light was very dazzling, but it didn't mean that she would be in another place after stepping into it. The light was like a tunnel, and there was still a long way to go.
Shi Sheng couldn't open her eyes because of the blinding light, so she could only grope her way forward.
After walking for about five minutes, the light gradually weakened. She got used to the light and gradually saw the front.
There was a white jade door in front of her. There were no decorations on the door, and it looked like a whole piece of white jade had been cut open from the middle and stood there.
Shi Sheng stepped out of the white light completely. The white light behind her suddenly shrank back and disappeared in front of her at the speed of light.
Her surroundings fell into darkness, and only the white jade door in front of her emitted a soft light. It dispelled the darkness around her and gently wrapped her up.
Shi Sheng walked slowly to the white jade door, reached out to touch it, and closed her eyes slightly.
— — In the name of Shi, I offer my soul, give up my greed, and voluntarily enter into a contract with the door of time and space. My name is Shi Sheng.
The white light on the white jade door converged into small tentacles. They carefully touched Shi Sheng's hand that was placed on the white jade door. After repeating this several times, the small tentacles wrapped around Shi Sheng's wrist and quickly wrapped her up.
Shi Sheng was pulled into the silver path again, but this time, there were not only one silver path, but many, and they meandered into the darkness.
The white jade door stood behind her.
On the white jade door, there were carved paths and flowers on both sides of the paths.
A low voice gathered from all directions. "Welcome to the door of time and space. Please confirm if you want to enter into an eternal contract with the door of time and space. You cannot tell any living thing about the door of time and space, and you cannot use the door of time and space to satisfy your own desires. This contract cannot be broken unless you die. If you violate the rules of the door of time and space, you will be punished by the destruction of your soul. "
"Confirm."
"You will swear on your soul that you will protect the door of time and space for the rest of your life. You will not use the door of time and space to satisfy your own desires."
"I swear on my soul that I will protect the door of time and space for the rest of my life. You will not use the door of time and space to satisfy your own desires."
"Welcome, new master of the door of time and space."
The white light on the white jade door flashed, and her name gradually appeared on the white jade door.
The white jade door stood quietly in front of her. The voice did not sound again, as if it had never appeared.
Shi Sheng reached out to touch the white jade door. Just as her fingers touched the door, the white jade door turned into a white light and entered her body.
This door was called the door of time and space, and it had always been guarded by the Shi family.
Through this door, one could go to any time and space, and even reverse time to go back to the past or the future.
If this door was leaked to the outside world, it would cause a bloodbath. Therefore, the Shi family had secretly guarded the door of time and space for generations.
The door of time and space was not something that anyone could guard. It had to be a person without greed and a person with a strong heart.
It did not require you to be kind, but you had to be without greed.
The end of the era had arrived, and the next guardian of the Shi family had not been found yet. The situation was chaotic, and in order not to let others know, the Shi family's ancestors told the younger generation that there was wealth and life behind the door of time and space, and asked them to guard it well.
The door of time and space would find its own guardian. After so many years, Shi Sheng did not know if the Shi family had formed a contract with the door of time and space, but if there was, it proved that no one had violated the contract with the door of time and space.
