The fire burned fiercely beside her. Shi Man looked around with a dark expression. Everything she saw was in ruins.

She shouted her brothers’ names but could not get an answer. She was completely lost in this sudden fire.

Just as she was wondering if this was a dream or reality, a pair of hands suddenly reached out from the sea of fire. She hurriedly dodged to the side and saw a panicked figure suddenly appear where she was just now.

That person was holding the hand of a child who was a few years old.

“Go! Hurry up and leave. Don’t worry about me!” A woman’s choked voice came from the sea of fire, followed by a violent cough.

The thick smoke around them became denser and denser, and it was about to devour the woman with the child.

Shi Man could not see her face clearly, but she could tell that she was familiar.

She held the child’s hand and took one last sad look at the sea of fire. Then, she turned around and ran out with the child.

On the way, the wooden beam that had been broken by the fire suddenly smashed down from above. The woman hurriedly hugged the child and dodged to the side. A moment later, she was finally reached by the rescuers and successfully escaped the sea of fire.

And the other woman was buried in the fire…

Shi Man clenched her fists and wanted to rush over to save her, but she could not see a single person in the sea of fire. What surprised her, even more, was that the surrounding fire did not make her feel any heat.

Other than the initial suffocation, she was actually unaffected by the fire.

The strange feeling in her heart became even more obvious. She stopped in her tracks. Just as she was thinking, someone suddenly pulled her arm.

Shi Man looked down in surprise and saw a pair of charred hands holding her wrist tightly. She looked up from her arm and was caught off guard by a pair of eyes filled with hatred.

“Kill them.”

That person opened her mouth to speak, but her lips had already been burned to charcoal. Half of her tongue landed beside her mouth. When she spoke, it trembled slightly, and saliva kept flowing out of her mouth.

Shi Man’s heart skipped a beat. She subconsciously wanted to shake off her hand, but before she could move, the other party seemed to have seen through her intentions. She leaned over again and grabbed her shoulders tightly.

A strong burnt smell rushed into her nose. The smell of blood and human flesh floated in the air and surrounded her.

Even though Shi Man had seen many dead people, she couldn’t help but want to retch.

However, that person did not intend to let her off easily. She stared at her with vicious eyes and a ferocious and terrifying expression. “Kill them for me and avenge me. 1 hate them so much. Avenge me!”

Shi Man knew that she could not avoid it. She held her breath and asked in a low voice, “Who are you? Why must I help you?”

The person finally quieted down, as if she was thinking carefully about her question, but she didn’t seem to hear anything.

She let go of Shi Man’s shoulder and walked to the edge of the sea of fire with her head lowered. She looked at the rescued duo outside and the corners of her mouth suddenly curled up. She smiled foolishly. “It’s safe. It’s good that you’re safe.”

Shi Man walked to her side hesitantly and followed her gaze outside. She saw a familiar face.

It was Lu Xiang…

In a flash, Shi Man suddenly felt her heart beat faster. A strong suffocating feeling attacked her again, as if a large hand was holding her neck tightly.

At that moment, Shi Man finally understood why she felt a strong sense of familiarity when she saw the two figures who had just left. She also understood that the woman standing beside her and looking at the outside world with longing was Xi Ying.

The suffocation gradually deepened. Shi Man knelt on the ground and could not breathe, her face quickly turning red.

She clutched her chest. Her entire body was trembling. The smell of death assaulted her.

Just as she thought that she would definitely die this time, a fair hand suddenly stretched out in front of her. She raised her eyes with difficulty, thinking that she would see another terrifying scene. Unexpectedly, what she saw this time was an extremely beautiful face.

That person smiled at her and led her out of the fire.

“Let’s go. Don’t come again.” That person said and was about to turn around and leave.

The stifling feeling in her chest suddenly disappeared. Shi Man hurriedly stopped the person and eased the pain in her throat. She frowned and asked in a hoarse voice, “Didn’t you ask me to avenge you?”

That person was stunned for a moment before she tilted her head and smiled apologetically. She did not say a word, but her figure gradually faded out of Shi Man’s sight.

“Wait! Tell me who killed you first!”

Shi Man took two steps forward, but her ankle seemed to be suddenly grabbed by someone. No matter what, she could not lift it. She could only watch helplessly as the person disappeared bit by bit and finally turned into nothingness.

“Manman! Manman, what’s wrong? Wake up!”

The noisy voice in her ear finally woke Shi Man up.

She suddenly opened her eyes. The fear in her eyes had yet to fade, but she quickly calmed down when she saw the anxious man above her.

“I’m fine. I had a nightmare.” Shi Man sat up calmly and saw that her ankle was in Shen Xian’s hand..
