Chapter 1333: The Dream Weaver Appears
The person before her eyes was just an ordinary wage earner; looking at his pale, terrified expression, he didn't seem like someone capable of posing a threat at all.
"This person is problematic," Ping'er said coldly. "Take General Director He and leave first."
"Ping'er..." Several bodyguards rushed over in a hurry; the bodyguard captain felt a headache coming on as he saw the scene before him.
"He is problematic," Ping'er stared fixedly at the man.
"He is just an ordinary person, there is no problem. Put your gun away quickly, this is a shopping mall," the bodyguard captain said in a deep voice. "Your post-war syndrome is acting up again. If you continue like this, I will have to send you to see a Yisheng."
"My intuition is not wrong." Ping'er still held her gun, staring fixedly at the man before her, with no intention of letting go.
"Captain, there is no problem." A bodyguard searched the man's body several times, then turned back to report.
"No problem. Put the gun away. You lot, evacuate the people in the surrounding area," the captain said as he holstered his gun.
"Yes." Several bodyguards dispersed the onlookers, then disarmed Ping'er.
Ping'er's nerves were taut; she lowered her gun but still stared fixedly at the man before her.
"You two take her back first. Her mental state is not normal right now. Be careful, and make sure she doesn't hurt anyone else," the captain instructed two bodyguards.
"Yes. Ping'er, let's go back first." The two nodded and led Ping'er away.
Ping'er turned around slowly; she nodded and was about to follow the two away.
But just at this moment, the man behind her muttered, "Isn't this person a lunatic?"
Ping'er turned her head abruptly, her eyes instantly filled with murderous intent. Suddenly, her right hand flipped, a Dagger appeared from her hand, and she slashed fiercely at the man's head behind her.
Pfft... The Dagger pierced into the guy's forehead, straight into the center of his brow.
"Ping'er..." Everyone was shocked.
However, the scene that followed left everyone stunned.
The 'ordinary person' who appeared to have no danger whatsoever—
Was pierced through by the entire Dagger, yet he did not fall, and no blood flowed out.
He stared coldly at the people before him, then, in full view of everyone, he gripped the Dagger with his right hand and pulled it out gently.
His body seemed to turn into a mass of gas in that instant; after the Dagger was removed, his head immediately returned to normal. This person was as if made of gas.
"Alert!" The captain reacted extremely quickly; he responded instantly, and a group of people aimed their guns at this man.
"Hehe, I disguised myself so well, yet you still saw through it?" The man before them tilted his head and stared at Ping'er. "You are somewhat different; I see you are not ordinary."
"I just felt you were problematic. Who are you?" Ping'er drew her pistol again and said coldly.
"You can call me... Nightmare," the man smiled slightly. "As for why I am called by this name, you will know very soon."
"Nightmare?" Ping'er frowned.
As they spoke, Nightmare had already begun to walk forward slowly.
"Stop, don't move," the bodyguard captain shouted in a deep voice. "Protect General Director He, immediately."
Unfortunately, with a wave of Nightmare's hand, a white Nightmare scattered down like stars; the bodyguards and the surrounding pedestrians all entered a dream state in this instant.
Even He Lingyun and Mu Xi were no exception; the two stood on the spot, staring blankly ahead.
"You are Chen Yu's mother, right?" Nightmare stared at He Lingyun and said. "Sure enough, only a woman like you could give birth to such a son. Hehe, but you have to come with me."
He Lingyun was now only in her own dream; she nodded slightly and then mechanically followed Nightmare to leave.
Just at this moment, Nightmare's brow suddenly furrowed slightly; he felt a gust of wind attacking from behind.
Ping'er leaped up, another Dagger appeared in her hand, and she stabbed fiercely at him.
However, Nightmare was only an illusory existence; he had no physical body, so the Dagger stabbing into his body was like stabbing into a gust of air.
Moreover, a force rebounded; Ping'er retreated several steps, clutching the Dagger tightly in her hand, staring at him with sharp eyes.
"You are not an ordinary person, otherwise it would be impossible for you not to enter my dream." As Nightmare spoke, he waved his right hand forward, and a wisp of Nightmare like starlight rose up, attempting to pull her into the dream.
But unfortunately, he failed; Ping'er still stood on the spot, staring coldly at him.
"Who exactly are you?" Ping'er looked at her colleagues and He Lingyun, who had all fallen into the dream and were standing on the spot without moving, and she could not help but feel alarmed.
"I said, I am Nightmare. I can take you into my dream, but when your Life is threatened within the dream, the dream will turn into reality," Nightmare smiled slightly.
"You actually didn't enter my dream. It can be seen that you are different, but what can that change?" Nightmare said with a chuckle.
Ping'er said nothing; her figure flickered, and she attacked Nightmare again. However, every time, the weapon in her hand brushed past Nightmare.
He was like a mass of gas; no weapon could harm him.
"Hehe, I said it, it's useless." Nightmare smiled slightly and said leisurely, "You are but a mortal body; with your strength, how could you compare to the gods?"
"Are you a god?" Just at this moment, a cold voice came over, and Chen Yu appeared.
He stood in front of his mother, staring coldly at Nightmare.
"It's you again. What a pity; I originally intended to take your mother away and have a good talk with her, but I didn't expect you to appear again," Nightmare said with a chuckle.
"Coming to find my mother, is that your intention, or the intention of Cloud Hut?" Chen Yu said coldly.
"Is there a difference?" Nightmare spread his hands. "I only represent myself, but now I am indeed working for Cloud Hut."
"So you can understand this as my personal action, or you can understand it as the action of Cloud Hut," Nightmare smiled lightly.
"Good." Chen Yu nodded slightly and said, "Since you've come, then don't leave this place."
"Hehe, this is a shopping mall. If you fight me to the death, it will cause the mall to collapse," Nightmare sneered. "I don't believe you dare to do that."
"Then let's try." Chen Yu beckoned with his right hand, and Lichen appeared in his hand.
Massive Sword Intent condensed continuously on the sword body, and the surrounding Primordial Qi surged crazily toward Chen Yu; the Heaven and Earth Primordial Energy within a radius of three kilometers was drained in this instant.
