'Please be safe, Ai Rong! Please be safe! I promise that I will start being honest to you with my feelings!' Tian Chenyu continued to run towards the east side of the city even though he was already out of breath.
"Hide! A demon has appeared on the east side of the city!" The pedestrians shouted as they ran.
"Young man, where are you going?! That's the direction of the demon!"
Some of the pedestrians tried to stop Tian Chenyu, but he ignored all of their warnings and continued running.
A few minutes later, which felt like an eternity for Tian Chenyu, he finally arrived in the area where the Ai Family was located.
However, the place was awfully quiet, a stark contrast to the atmosphere on the other side of the city.
Tian Chenyu eventually arrived at the Ai Family's household, and he could even see their entrance.
However, he couldn't approach the household for some reason and could only stand a couple of houses away.
He eventually snapped out of his daze and proceeded walking towards the Ai Family's household.
But then he came to another halt when he noticed a figure appearing from within the household, and this person appeared to be running away from something.
When Tian Chenyu saw the pretty face of this person, a smile immediately appeared on his face.
'Ai Rong!'
Indeed, it was Ai Rong, his love since childhood and fiancee. freeωebnovēl.c૦m
Tian Chenyu felt all of the weight on his shoulders disappear the moment he saw that Ai Rong was still alive. Even though she looked terrified and completely hysterical at this moment, that didn't matter to him.
However, before he could even sigh a breath of relief, and before the smile on his face could fully be formed, something red and long appeared behind Ai Rong, and it was flying towards her direction like a spear.
Before Tian Chenyu could even fully comprehend what he was seeing, the red spear reached Ai Rong and pierced her body from the back.
Ai Rong fell to the ground the very next moment and laid there, but she was still alive.
Seeing this, Tian Chenyu immediately began running towards her.
However, before he could even take two steps, he noticed a red figure appearing behind Ai Rong.
This figure had dark red skin, and it had the frame of a tall human adult. There was also a very distinct-looking horn poking from the right side of its head.
The moment Tian Chenyu saw this demon, his body froze, almost as though he'd turned into a stone statue.
'What are you doing, Tian Chenyu?! Move! Move, damn it!' He roared inwardly.
But no matter how much he tried to command his body to move, it simply refused to listen to him, so he could only stand there and watch as the demon slowly approached Ai Rong, who was squirming on the ground in a puddle of her own blood.
'No… Don't… Stop it… STOP IT!'
Tian Chenyu wanted to shout at the demon to stop, but no voices came out of his mouth.
