Dugu Xian lived in fear at all times. The smallest sound outside the door would cause him to tremble and stiffen with fear. Even the air he breathed was frozen like ice.
He was not only afraid that the swordsmen of the Great Snowmountain would take revenge on him at any moment but also afraid of the killers sent by the Supreme King. In his imagination, the Supreme King must have been furious with his betrayal and wanted to punish him at all costs.
This was far from what he had imagined himself becoming. As a battle-hardened general, he believed that he should be fearless and even take the initiative to welcome death.
Oddly enough, he never had similar fears on the battlefield, but he shuddered at the thought of those cold killers like swords.
