Within the snowfield near Snowwind Mountain.
Crunch, crunch...
A man hurriedly ran through the snow, his steps staggering, leaving two trails of footprints and a streak of blood.
One of the man's eyes had been gouged out, the socket black and red, and his body was pierced by over a dozen black swords, all penetrating him.
"Hoo, hoo..."
The man's breathing sounded like a broken bellows; his lungs were punctured.
With a thud, the man collapsed into the snow, and his blood quickly turned the surrounding snow red.
Crunch, crunch...
Another set of footsteps approached.
"Don't, don't come closer."
The man struggled to get up, but after much effort, he could only kneel on the ground.
"As a Third-tier contractor, you should have some dignity."
A woman's voice echoed, tinted with amusement; the corners of her slender lips curled, her red lips quite alluring.
