Chapter 250: Xin's POV (2)

Xin didn't care if this was a dream, a vision, or some cruel illusion—it hurt all the same. Seeing her sister like this carved into her chest a pain deeper than any wound she had ever suffered.
"Sister…" Xin whispered, her voice trembling as she began to step closer. Each step echoed softly against the frozen platform, her feet crunching into the frost as she drew nearer.
