Chapter 823: Chapter 466: All I Want Is an Answer (Part 3)
As Sha Yun came to this conclusion, her eyes hardened with resolve. Should she end her life to prevent being used against him, or should she wait and see what happens?
"Once he realizes I’m gone, he’ll come looking for me," she mused to herself. "Let’s see what happens now," she nodded. Slowly, she began to circulate her internal energy, vigorously heating her blood to get her moving again.
When she had gathered enough energy, she slid off the bed onto the cold floor and rushed to the window to see what was outside.
Looking outside, she was astonished to find herself in a giant castle. The castle appeared to be made entirely of marble, resembling ice.
On the ground, snow was everywhere, and Sha Yun was unsure of what to do. She didn’t dwell on the thought for long because suddenly the door opened, and seven people appeared. They seemed to have a layer of frost on them; their eyes were white, clearly blind, and their bodies creaked as they walked.
Looking at these people, Sha Yun felt the cold invade her body. It seemed to pierce through to her bones, making her shiver uncontrollably.
"Come with us." The seven experts said in unison. Their voices were almost mechanical, and their movements seemed rigid. Seeing them, Sha Yun was terrified. She had lived in this world for a long time, so how could she not recognize the frozen experts. All of them were from the Frozen Army.
The Frozen Army answered only to General Frozen, which made Sha Yun tremble in fear. It seemed she was in a very dangerous place.
Seeing Sha Yun not move, the seven experts reached out to grab the Snake Woman and, without waiting further, walked out the door, heading down the stairs.
They walked down a corridor one after another. The further they went, the more the castle seemed to be made purely of ice, and gradually, she saw more and more Frozen people roaming the halls.
The frozen ones differed among themselves. Most were just like the seven experts who carried Sha Yun, entirely mechanical, while others seemed more conscious.
Amazed, Sha Yun realized the varying consciousness levels of these experts. She quickly understood that the higher their consciousness, the higher their rank. As for how these deceased experts were created, she didn’t know. Nor did she want to know any further.
Upon reaching the first floor, the seven experts approached a massive ice door. They knocked on it before once again surrounding the Snake Woman.
As the door opened, the small group moved forward. Sha Yun couldn’t help but take a close look at the person in front of her. However, upon seeing who was known as General Frozen, her eyes nearly popped out of her head, and she stepped back.
"Zhong Hui?!" she exclaimed, her words silencing the entire hall. Even the conscious members of the Frozen Army were shocked to hear someone dare utter their master’s name. Their dead white eyes seemed to fill with rage as they rushed at her, prepared to strike for her disrespect.
"Stop!" Zhong Hui’s word halted everyone. As his voice echoed, none dared to move an inch.
Standing, Zhong Hui left his icy throne, extending his arm as he walked toward Sha Yun. Knowing who he was, Sha Yun dared not disrespect him, and trembling, she followed him back to the icy throne.
"Find a chair, I’m in the company of a beautiful companion," he commanded, and immediately the seven experts who brought Sha Yun hurried off to find her a chair.
It only took a moment for the chair to be placed in front of the throne, and Sha Yun sat down, unsure of what was happening.
"Do not be afraid," he said with a smile. "These people will not hurt you, nor will I."
