Chapter 345 - 326: Compiling (2)
Qingyin City.
By a pond near the outskirts of the city, the surface of the water rippled gently from the falling rain.
The fish in the pond surfaced one after another, their mouths opening and closing as they gulped for air.
Beside the reeds on one side of the pond sat a man in his thirties.
He wore a black raincoat, sitting quietly as he fished.
"They say online that when it rains, the dissolved oxygen in the water increases, so the fish are more active and easier to catch. I definitely won’t be going home empty-handed this time."
The man muttered to himself.
His eyes were fixed on the red-and-white bobber floating on the water, his gaze filled with anticipation.
Suddenly, the bobber twitched a few times, then sank rapidly.
Seeing this, the man’s expression lit up, a look of delight spreading across his face.
"Haha, a good start!"
He exclaimed in a low, excited voice and hurriedly reached for his rod to reel it in.
However, as soon as he started reeling, he felt something was wrong.
The fishing rod was being pulled by an immense force, quickly bending into a half-arc. The pull was far stronger than anything he had ever felt while fishing before.
’Whatever’s down there must be huge. It might be a big fish!’
The man was thrilled, his face flushing red as he gripped the rod tightly with both hands.
He pulled back with all his might, thankful that his high-quality rod didn’t snap under the tremendous strain.
As the man tugged, the calm surface of the water began to churn.
The surrounding light was dim and gloomy because of the rain.
But because he was close, the man could still vaguely make out what was happening on the surface.
Yet he didn’t see the outline of a fish or the flap of fins he expected.
Instead, what met his eyes were strands of black hair bubbling up from the depths, slowly spreading across the murky water.
Then, a woman’s pale, bloodless, and expressionless face slowly emerged from the water.
In the hazy rain, her frigid face looked exceptionally eerie.
This sudden sight instantly scattered the nearby fish.
The man felt a BOOM go off in his head.
His scalp tingled as an instinctual fear washed over him.
His body recoiled instinctively, and he fell right off his stool.
"Fuck! A ghost!"
An inhuman, terrified scream tore from his throat as he scrambled to his feet and ran for his life, fleeing into the distance.
He was running so fast on the rain-soaked, muddy, and slippery ground that he fell after just a few steps.
But he paid no mind to the pain and didn’t stop to check for injuries. Using his hands and feet, he continued to scramble and crawl forward in a mad dash until his figure vanished into the woods in the distance.
"To think they’d appear in the water?"
Just behind the woman, the water rippled again, and two more figures burst from the surface.
A man and a woman.
It was Wei Fan and Gao Qian.
And that horrifyingly pale face from before was Ouyang Shuokong, in Disguise, who was severely injured and had yet to recover.
"Where is this? How did we end up here? And where did that monster go?"
Gao Qian’s voice trembled slightly as her gaze swept vigilantly across their surroundings.
The cyan-black tattoo on the back of her hand spread up her arm to her face.
This was a sign that she was pushing her tattoo Dream Eye to its absolute limit.
All she remembered was a blur before her eyes.
The next thing she knew, she was at the bottom of the water.
The horrifying scene from the blood-red space, with severed limbs strewn everywhere, was long gone.
Climbing out of the pond and onto the bank, they were met with the sight of desolate ridges between fields.
The distant sky was shrouded in haze, a vast expanse of mist.
A fine, drizzling rain fell like a dense curtain of silver threads.
"I’m not sure, but we should be free of the Blood Word Script."
Wei Fan said softly, his voice laced with exhaustion.
Whether it was a trick of the light or not, a few silver strands had appeared in his once jet-black hair, and his whole demeanor seemed somewhat haggard.
He didn’t notice the strange glint that flashed silently in Ouyang Shuokong’s eyes.
’There were only two possibilities for escaping the restraints of the Blood Word Script.’
’Either the master intervened.’
’Or that Dream Eye on Wei Fan came into play.’
’Comparing the two, he was more inclined to believe the latter.’
As for what Ouyang Shuokong was thinking, Wei Fan was, of course, completely unaware.
At that moment, although he had successfully escaped, his mood was absolutely foul.
He could feel a profound sense of exhaustion coming from within his body.
Earlier, after using the power of his right eye, the Clock Dream Eye, he had also cleared the mark of the Blood Word Script and escaped that blood-red space.
Unfortunately, this wasn’t what he had wanted.
His target from the very beginning had been the Blood Word Script itself, but sadly, things hadn’t gone according to plan.
’Why did that monster appear? And that Bone Shattering Hammer... it seems this is the person who ruined my plans back then.’
Wei Fan thought to himself, his brow tightly furrowed.
He had a strange feeling.
’Why is this person always able to successfully disrupt my plans?’
The importance of the Blood Word Script was self-evident.
’The script-writing Ability it possesses is simply terrifying.’
’But now, because of this person, he was forced to abandon the Blood Word Script. How could he accept that?’
’This person... I will kill them one day!’
A bone-chilling coldness flashed in his eyes.
’But on the bright side, it wasn’t a total loss.’
His eyes glinted, and his fingers subconsciously drifted to a hidden pocket in his pants. There was something inside, crumpled into a ball.

CLICK!
The steel prison door was opened from the outside.
A middle-aged judge in a black robe walked in with a stern expression, followed by two armed prison guards.
The judge’s gaze fell on the figure sitting by the iron bed to one side.
