Not now?

Everyone had tears in their eyes but dared not make a sound.

Dorian only gave Butler Sheng a brief look, sending him off.

And in no more than 15 minutes, he was back, holding the famous wooden box in his hands.

Butler Feng recognized the box anywhere.

But to Donghai and the rest, this was their first time seeing it.

Strange wooden carvings and a powerful aura seeped out from the box, making them subconsciously lean back.

What was in it?

Donghia frowned, feeling even more confused than when he got in here.

"Grandmaster... In the beginning, you said we've all been marked. However, you've yet to explain yourself."

"Hmmm... Stretch out your hand."

This... Okay?

This still didn't answer his question, but what the heck. Might as well go through with it all.

Donghai stretched his hand forth, feeling that nothing else could shock or surprise him after seeing the gruesome cup scene.

However, the moment Dorian took hold of his hands, he realized just how wrong he was.

Like a tsunami, a very warm energy circled within him, causing him to sweat profoundly.

Bubuum. Bubuum.

His heart rate accelerated with every tremble that echoed deep within his core.

In just 2 seconds, his entire back was covered in a thick layer of sweat.

.

Twitch. Twitch.

He began squirming uncontrollably.

Everyone saw his mouth grow heavy. He clearly wanted to speak, yet his tongue seemed swollen from the sting of a thousand bees.

"Leader, leader... What's wrong with you?"

Donghai struggled to lift his eyelids, slanting them to the side and staring at his gang in immense pain.

"Mm... My back."

Twitch.

Donghai was almost going crazy from it all.

Meanwhile, the gang was quick to pick out his concerns.

His back? His back?

Butler Sheng was quick to move after getting telepathic orders from Dorian.

And with sheer hand strength, he ripped open the back of Donghai's thick police attire.

Rip!

Everyone was amazed by his strength.

However, their attention was soon pulled to the big elephant in the room.

One step back, two steps back.

Blood drained from their skin.

And with trembling fingers, Leah pointed to Donghai's back.

"Leader... Leader... "

She couldn't even finish her words.

And the twitching Donghai had a very ominous feeling after listening to the burdening words of those around him.

His heart skipped a beat.

Mommy... What did they see?

.

Oh my God!

Leah felt the sensation of a thousand spiders crawl up her back the moment she saw the distorted image appear on Donghai's back.

It had a face, but at the same time, didn't have a face.

Nonetheless, this much was enough to make their breaths stagnant.

The very thick and ever-changing black lines seemed to have an eye of their own. Every little move they made sent chills down their spines.

Was it watching them? Could it see them?

Looking at the face that seemed to want to burst out of Donghai's back, everyone subconsciously held their breaths.

F***!

After today, they would still have nightmares about their leader's back.

.

~Gulp.

Butler Feng swallowed hard, watching one of their Gia masters anxiously, though he dared not say anything

But opposite from the chaotic expressions from those around the room, Dorian was still calm, holding Donghai's hands with his eyes closed.

But suddenly, he opened them fiercely before smashing his right palm against Donghai's face.

Bam!

"Sleep."

"Ahhhh~~~"

Donghia screamed, trembling even more kike a fish out of water.

Resistance. Something deep within him was fighting against the Will.

However, who was Dorian?

"I said sleep!"

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Countless explosions went off in Donghai's mind.

And in this instant, the winds grew heavy, and the air was brittle.

Leah and the rest had long subconsciously held each other, allowing the strange winds to engulf the scene.

There it was again. The strange winds!

Could it be a sign of that thing reemerging?

Please no! No! ... Don't let it come!

Hands to their weapons, many were ready to last a bullet the moment it appeared.

Yes! Bullets might but take it down. But so what?

In a battle, even if one was holding a dagger, while the enemy had a gun, you still had to fight with what you've got rather than sitting duck out in the open.

Hahhh~

Leah opened her mouth, releasing a large whiff of air only to see white fog emerge.

What? Just how cold had the place become for her to see her old cold steam?

This was summer... The hottest time of the year.

The more she observed, the more confident she was of the creature's reappearance.

However, wait as they might, Dorian was not about to let that happen.

.

"Go to sleep!"

Boom!

The last explosion went off in Donghai's mind. And right before everyone's eyes, the gruesome image in his back beside to reside, fading away from their view.

The winds slowly vanished, and Donghai also began retaining control over his body.

Lying on the grounds thoroughly dipped in sweat, he finally opened his eyes.

The pain was no more.

"Leader..."

Leah and the rest called out, moving sideways, before reaching out to him.

That's it.

From this day forth, called out from a safe distance, wanting to step onward to assist him up.

However, their legs had refused to move... At least not until they had a guarantee.

"Grandmaster... Is it gone?"

"No... Just sleeping. However, it won't be waking up anytime soon."

Phew.

Now, they rushed in to help.

"Leader! We were so worried about you!"

"_"

Donghai felt the draft, seeing how his clothes had been ripped open from the back.

He sat on the couch with a pale expression.

"What exactly did you guys see?"

"This..." Everyone smiled bitterly, not wanting to recall.

Leader, can we not say?

Just getting over the trauma they just experienced was really too torturing.

They felt like dipping their eyes in bleach every time they recalled the image.

Augh.

From today onwards, they would never look at their Leader's back the same way again!
