The Resolve to Die

The voice of the Blood Demon echoed once again, and Gu Lan unconsciously tightened his grip.

In that instant, the scene before Gu Lan's eyes suddenly blurred.

"How could it be you?"

Gu Lan was slightly surprised, and his grip loosened unconsciously.

Despite this, Shadow's face was still flushed.

"Master Gu, you should let go of me first."

At Shadow's prompt, Gu Lan finally withdrew his hand from his throat.

"Why are you here?"

Gu Lan was still surprised, and confusion was written all over his face.

The feeling he just experienced had been so real that now he was starting to doubt whether he was in an illusion.

"Master Gu, your blood energy is incredibly powerful, so I came to take a look. I didn't expect…"

As Shadow spoke, Gu Lan frowned immediately.

If what he said was true, then he had almost been controlled by the Blood Demon.

Just then, a mocking laugh echoed in Gu Lan's ears.

"Such a pity, we didn't manage to kill him!"
