"Ah..." A woman's scream came through.
At that moment, the world brightened, and all clarity was restored. The scene that was previously witnessed vanished entirely.
There was no cave dwelling, nor was there any Water Curtain Cave. Xiao Chen stood amidst the blue diamond-like waters of the lake, surrounded by blood-red lotus petals dancing in the wind, drifting down onto the lake surface.
The blood-red petals, as seductive as blood, were shocking to the eye. They quickly dyed the blue Divine Lake blood-red, and hundreds of white swans in the lake rose into the sky in fright.
In the middle of the lake stood a huge Blood Lotus, like a sky-reaching ancient tree that shielded the heavens, towering hundreds of meters, radiant in red, and startling to the heart.
Atop the hundreds of meters tall Blood Lotus stood a seductive woman with traces of blood at her lips. Her proud peaks and chest were pierced by several Battle Swords, with blood gushing out profusely.
