Zhou Xie'e, Part III

Gao Shen was the first to die. He was their defender, using his massive and durable body to protect the others while they attacked, so it was perhaps natural that he would die first. Wu Meiying had seen his death seconds before it happened. She had tried to warn him, but she was a second too late. Zhou Xie’e had removed the man’s heart from his chest. The others had panicked when they saw Gao Shen’s still beating heart grasped within his hands.

He’s toying with us.

That was the first thing Wu Meiying thought after his action. He could have killed Gao Shen easily, but instead, he manipulated the Dao of Time to keep the man alive even after removing his heart from his chest. Gao Shen only died when Zhou Xie’e crushed his heart with a simple application of strength.
