Cheng Xiu ran towards the source of the sound to find Chu Ying fighting against a girl with long green hair who was screaming. The screaming girl's face, however, was blank. Almost like her scream was something that even she was not aware that she was releasing.
"Chu Ying!" Cheng Xiu and San Zhe called out.
Cheng Xiu took the sword out of its scabbard and thrust it towards the girl.
The girl did not dodge. Instead her screaming stopped and she fell to the ground like a puppet that broke its strings.
San Zhe grabbed a hold of Chu Ying who had fallen to the ground and helped the girl to stand up.
Cheng Xiu walked towards the girl with the green hair.
The hair had stopped being green.
It was now a dull brown coloured hiar.
But that was not where Cheng Xiu's eyes were trained at. Something far more horrifying happened to the girl.
