Chapter 145

A'le collapsed on the ground, wailing and writhing in agony, wriggling like a crawling insect. He had completely lost his former arrogance. Rolling on the ground like a centipede, his body kept twisting and writhing in torment. He clawed at his neck and screamed miserably, his eyes bulging as if they would pop out of their sockets. His face slowly turned a purple-black, a clear sign that the poison had run deep. Seeing the catastrophe he had caused, A'wen's first reaction as a youth was not to think about how to remedy the situation, but how to shift the blame onto Awen. In a panic, even though he knew how to save the man, the Snow Lotus Seed had fallen into that hole and simply could not be retrieved. No matter how hard he tried or how much he hammered at it, the Snow Lotus Seed just wouldn't come out, making it impossible to save the person's life. Only now, with the shares of Wenxin Collection, did he realize how massive a disaster he had brought upon himself; he had almost taken a vibrant young life.
