I was chased at the beginning, and I got the first quick sword

Chapter 563 Two Treasure Chests
Chu Qing looked at the girl who was bound in mid-air like a lamb to the slaughter, yet she still stubbornly insisted that she was about to win.

For a moment, I was both amused and exasperated.
"I don't see how close you are to winning?"

"We were already close to winning!"

Wu Qianhuan snorted.

That's actually a bit unreasonable... after all, she herself doesn't know when she'll actually win.

Whether they will be completely worn down or turn the tide remains to be seen.

Perhaps because she is used to reasoning with people, Wu Qianhuan really didn't want to reason with people at this moment!

She desperately wanted to tell Chu Qing that this bastard had killed her many times.

The pain of having your head cut off is just like the real thing!
Those experiences, now that I think about them, are actually a bit blurry. After all, dreams have a characteristic that they can be forgotten without you even realizing it...

Even the most vivid dreams remain vividly etched in one's memory the moment one awakens.

But if you don't tell anyone, often in the blink of an eye, everything you just remembered will vanish from your mind.

The reason why Wu Qianhuan can still remember so much is mainly because she hasn't completely woken up from this dream.

Even when she wasn't around Chu Qing, she was able to bravely face all hardships.

But when she saw this guy suddenly appear beside her, the pain she had experienced turned into grievance, and even a strong-willed girl like Wu Qianhuan couldn't help but fill her eyes with tears.

I wanted to be unreasonable in front of him.

Tell the person in front of you that you were bullied by the bastard on the other side, and that he/she has to stand up for you!

Unfortunately, Wu Qianhuan was still not used to complaining to her own man... Her lips moved for a long time, but she couldn't say anything.

But there's no need to say it out loud.

It's easy to imagine how much she must have suffered to make her fiancée cry.

"Okay, don't cry anymore."

Chu Qing released his grip on the dagger and gently stroked Wu Qianhuan's nose.

Wu Qianhuan was startled at first, but then she realized that the dagger did not attack again after Chu Qing let go of her hand; it simply remained suspended in mid-air.

No matter how much Prince Meng bared his teeth and grimaced, he couldn't budge him an inch.

Immediately sensing Chu Qing's slightly indulgent gesture, she blushed deeply:

"There are outsiders here..."

"Then don't treat him like a human being."

As Chu Qing spoke casually, Prince Meng suddenly seemed to have been hit by something, and fell directly to the ground from mid-air.

With a deafening roar, the ground shattered, and he was thrown around, his mouth and eyes twisted.

Then he was lifted into the air by that invisible force, and kneaded and shaped according to Chu Qing's will.

In no time at all, he was tortured beyond recognition.

Looking at his miserable state, Wu Qianhuan felt a sense of relief.

"Prince Meng, it seems you're not up to the task either. Didn't you say you'd kill me a thousand times over?"
"How did it... become like this now?"

Prince Meng had something to say but couldn't.

This dream was indeed woven by him; his intention was to make Wu Qianhuan sink into the dream.

However, he did not expect that Wu Qianhuan would always be able to sense something was wrong in the dream, which would cause her to 'wake up'. Therefore, he could only deepen the dream layer by layer, constantly making Wu Qianhuan wake up from the dream within the dream.

The result was that Wu Qianhuan inexplicably regained her previous memories.

He has now changed his mind and wants to completely annihilate Wu Qianhuan, but then... Chu Qing arrives!
How he invaded this deep dream realm, the Dream King did not know.

All that is known is that when facing Wu Qianhuan, he is the king of his dreams.

But when faced with Chu Qing... he was like a lowly ant, utterly powerless to resist.

Now he was controlled by Chu Qing and couldn't even open his mouth from beginning to end.

From the moment the other party appeared, he could no longer control his own actions.

Chu Qing's eyes narrowed slightly:

"Huh? He wants to kill you a thousand times over?"

Although Wu Qianhuan never intended to complain, it was just like a bullied child going to their parents.

But since I've already said it, there's no reason not to admit it, so I nodded.

Chu Qing's face was somewhat gloomy...

He has killed countless times; this is certainly not the first, nor the last.

Before I arrived, how many times had Wu Qianhuan already died in this dream?
He then looked at Prince Meng, whose face immediately turned pale.

Although Chu Qing's expression wasn't ferocious, he sensed danger in it.

Then he saw the surrounding courtyard disappear.

It was as if it had been forcibly erased by a hand.

Then a frame that looked like a door frame appeared in front of him.

His body involuntarily floated onto the shelf, his hands and feet were bound first, and then his collarbone was locked.

The iron hook pierced through the iron chain, securing all the bones in his body that could be fixed.

Then he heard the sound of the machine running. He hurriedly went to look and saw that around the frame-like structure, there were many rollers with sharp blades.

It began to move closer to itself.

Amidst the terrified expression on Prince Meng's face, blood and flesh began to splatter.

This cruel mechanism first severed his hands and feet, then gradually shredded his body into pieces, leaving only his head, which rolled to the ground.

He remained extremely lucid throughout the entire process, as if some force, not of his own, was empowering his spirit.

It made him clearly feel how he went from having something to having nothing.

Only when his consciousness faded into darkness did the Dream Prince feel as if he had escaped from purgatory.

Before he could even breathe a sigh of relief, when he opened his eyes again, he found himself still bound to that shelf, and looking down, he could even see his own head next to the shelf.

The familiar sound of gears grinding came once again.

“No…don’t!!”

Prince Meng opened his mouth subconsciously, only to realize that he was now able to speak.

But then a sharp pain struck, and all the words he tried to say turned into pitiful screams.

But this was only the beginning of his nightmare.

He then repeatedly experienced the process of dying and coming back to life.

He was annihilated in Wu Qianhuan's dream when his spirit could no longer withstand the invasion of this dream.

"It doesn't seem like it's enough for a thousand times..."

Chu Qing counted the heads on the ground:

"Over five hundred times... Can I continue after I find his true form?"

Wu Qianhuan seemed to wake from a dream and quickly said:

"We've lingered here for too long. Xiangnan City has been invaded by the Fengtian Evil Cult. Senior Shang led us to kill those generals."

"But now they've been suddenly ambushed by Prince Meng... I wonder what the situation is like outside!?"

Chu Qing gently patted her back:
"Don't worry, the fact that I was able to get here means there won't be any problems outside."

"In addition, time in dreams is different from time in reality."

"What is a matter of ten thousand years here, might be nothing more than a fleeting thought outside..."

"Let's go, I'll take you out."

As they spoke, everything around them began to shatter.

Then Wu Qianhuan saw the turbulent sea. This scene was from the previous dream, when she had gained a slight advantage and used the [Dawn Moon Lonely Cold Sword Technique] to kill the Dream Prince. Wu Qianhuan thought this scene had disappeared, but unexpectedly, it was still there!
But the next moment, the scene began to crumble and disappear.

She and Chu Qing appeared in the back garden of the Tianwu City Lord's Mansion...

This is where her head was cut off.

"How could this be?"

Wu Qianhuan looked at Chu Qing with some surprise.

"The Dream Prince's martial arts are quite peculiar; he can delve into other people's dreams and interfere with them."

"However, his ability to intervene is limited. He can barely create something out of nothing, but it is not very clever. He can temporarily obscure your memories, but he cannot use your memories for his own purposes."

"Most of what you know in your dreams actually comes from your own seriousness and imagination."

"There are very few things he can change... He doesn't even dare to pretend to be someone close to you, because you'll notice something is off."

"So every time you suffer a terrible fate, he will weave a brand new dream for you, dragging you into a deeper nightmare."

"And the result of doing this is... that it's a bit difficult for me to find you."

"I went through so many layers of dreams to find you."

Chu Qing didn't need to say anything more; the scenes of shattered dreams were enough for Wu Qianhuan to understand what was going on.

A sense of inexplicable fear welled up inside me...

Even if we take a step back and assume she really has a way to turn the tables on Prince Meng,

Is there any way for her to escape from this dream?

She felt that there was a high probability that she couldn't escape.

More likely, she will be trapped in this dream world forever.

Fortunately, Chu Qing arrived.

The world is crumbling layer by layer, everything is collapsing.

In a daze, Wu Qianhuan felt Chu Qing's speed getting faster and faster, and everything around her began to become bizarre, and her mind began to become dazed.

Finally, her head lolled to the side, and she lost consciousness.

When I opened my eyes again, the stench of blood filled my nostrils.

Wu Qianhuan looked around blankly and found herself lying on Wenrou's body. All around her was the battlefield in front of Xiangnan City, where the corpses of several generals who had been killed not long ago lay quietly.

Wenrou also woke up at this moment, and rubbed her head:
"It seems like I had a strange dream?"

"I even dreamt that my third brother came to my rescue..."

Wu Qianhuan nodded repeatedly:
"I dreamt about it too!"

"But now that I think about it, I can't remember what I dreamed about."

"Me too... I just can't remember."

The shepherd boy quietly raised his hand in agreement.

Not only them, but everyone around them woke up.

They all remembered having a dream not long ago.

But the things in the dream were very blurry... I can't remember them.

However, I had a vague feeling that it wasn't a good dream.

"Tong'er, are you alright?"

As Shang Qiuyu's voice rang out, Wu Qianhuan and the others turned to look, and sure enough, they saw the Xuan Emperor rushing over to them.

The shepherd boy shook his head:
"Dad, were you dreaming?"

“Father didn’t dream. It was the Dream Prince who put you to sleep. He has the ability to make you dream, but he doesn’t have the ability to make Father dream.”

Shang Qiuyu said:
"So, do you not remember anything that happened in your dream?"

"how do you know?"

"That's what Chu the pretty boy said."

When Shang Qiuyu said this, everyone was taken aback:
"He's really back?"

"He's back. You just fell asleep and he came back right after you."

Shang Qiuyu said:
"He was the one who pulled you out of your dreams..."

"The reason I can't remember that dream is because he tampered with it."

“The Dream Prince is ruthless. You have probably all died more than once in your dreams. He was worried that these memories would also harm you, so he simply made you forget all those dreams.”

"Senior Shang, where is he now?"

Wu Qianhuan asked.

"He went to find that Prince Meng..."

He had barely finished speaking when he heard a whoosh of wind. Turning around, he saw Chu Qing had returned, spreading his hands:
"Couldn't find it."

"Chu Qing!"

"Third brother..."

"Big bastard."

The three spoke in unison, but Chu Qing looked at the shepherd boy with some confusion, wondering why she was being scolded for no reason.
Wu Qianhuan and Wenrou threw themselves into Chu Qing's arms from either side, and Chu Qing could only gently pat their shoulders to comfort them.

After calming them down, he then said:
"The Dream Prince's methods are indiscriminate. I pulled you out of the dream, but the Dream Prince did not free those people from the dream."

"Have someone screen them, and leave no one alive from the Heavenly Evil Sect."

"The others have had their acupoints sealed and have been detained... to observe their future effects."

After conveying the order to Liu Zhaonian and the others, the martial arts experts of the Southern Region, who had just regained their senses, immediately took action to capture the person.

Meanwhile, in an extremely secluded corner.

A person dressed in a half-black, half-white robe was curled up in a corner, clutching their head and groaning in pain.

In an instant, Chu Qing killed him more than five hundred times.

Even though that wisp of will meant nothing to him, the pain he had experienced was still reflected back when the profound power was withdrawn.

It caused him unbearable pain for a time.

"Chu Qing...I will avenge this!"

Then he continued to clutch his head and wail... He was truly tormented terribly by Chu Qing in his dream.

On Chu Qing's side, after giving the order, batches of people were quickly tied up.

As for the rest, kill those who should be killed, and bury those who should be buried.

After cleaning up the battlefield, the city lights were already on.

After Chu Qing had dinner with Wu Qianhuan and Wenrou and the others, he sent them back to their rooms, washed his hands, and sat cross-legged to open the box.

On his way back, he made a detour to Dafeng Tower and retrieved Bai Yitian's head as well.

Including Jian Jiu's, he now has a Crimson Treasure Chest and a Random Martial Arts Treasure Chest.

I plan to open it for him tonight.

In a flash, Chu Qing's first thought was to open the blood-red treasure chest.

Needless to say, the preset aspect is definitely internal strength.

If I cultivate a few more internal skills and integrate them into my [Heavenly Limitless Divine Power] through the Martial Arts Monument, I might be able to kill the Heavenly Evil Cult Leader without any external force the next time I deal with him!

[Preset successful. Open the Crimson Treasure Chest immediately?]

"open……"
