Chương 873: Sinking

What does it feel like to be underwater?

No matter how much you hold your breath, the desperation will make you inhale. And there, you won't find the oxygen to fill your lungs but instead, it'd be briny water that'll invade your body. The coolness invading your body would tire you out. The helpless struggle of trying to see the sky again will eventually run out as the body and heart would give up.

Your hair would start rising upward like seaweed, rippling in the currents. The struggle to reach out your hand would also die down. No matter how the panic would hammer against your ribs, you would just sink... Sink... And sink deeper.

That had been the feeling Xiu had experiences all too well, repeatedly in her dreams. The dream that had been following her for as long as she could remember. In fact, this dream was something she was all too familiar with.
