Genshin Impact: I am best at sacrifice, don't cry

Chapter 51: Desperate Xiao and Hopeful Dreams

The ruthless killing is still going on. The whole village is shrouded in black fog. Any human who wants to escape will be controlled and returned by a mysterious force after entering the black fog.

This was a brutal massacre. Even the Qianyan Army stationed in the village were killed at will like toys in front of Jin Peng.

However, during this process, Nan Dou made a surprising discovery.

In order to better control Jin Peng, the Dream Demon would occasionally let him regain consciousness while manipulating him to massacre the village.

The intense fear and despair of not being able to control his own body made Nan Dou's heart palpitate.

The Dream Demon God had no special feelings about slaughtering humans; He simply wanted to sharpen the Golden Peng sword.

The excitement and madness in killing come from the blood of Yaksha, while the fear and regret are Jinpeng's clear consciousness.

Nan Dou, who is also a human, was affected far more severely than Jin Peng when he experienced everything he went through.

Nan Dou killed innocent villagers one by one in a brutal manner with his own hands, and the desperate expressions of those villagers before their death were deeply imprinted in his mind.

Even if he wanted to close his eyes, he couldn't do it. The shrill screams made Nan Dou's consciousness begin to blur.

"What a beast!"

The massacre before my eyes and the screams in my ears never stopped for a moment. After killing one village, the scene switched to another.

But at this moment, Nan Dou recalled an afternoon he spent with Jin Peng more than 20 years ago.

Jin Peng, who had a young face, rarely asked, "Brother Nandou, what are humans like?"

Seeing the innocent and cute appearance of the youngest brother among the siblings, everyone else smiled.

Nandou replied: "Humans are similar to us, except that they are not as strong as us and they yearn for a more peaceful life."

"Is that so? Then why don't humans live with us?" Jin Peng rarely spoke so many words and was very curious about humans.

"Because although we look the same as humans, we are not the same species after all. They cannot accept many of our habits, and the environment they grew up in is completely different."

"But remember, humans are subjects of the Emperor just like us. We, who are stronger, have an obligation to protect the weaker ones."

Nandou was deeply touched when he said this, because while he was a Yaksha, he was also a member of the weak human race.

"I understand. Humans are what we need to protect!"

"..."

"I want to protect humanity, but what have I done now!!!"

"Ahhhh~~~"

Memories flashed through his mind, and Nan Dou found that the killing in front of him had finally stopped, and Jin Peng had regained control of his body after a long time.

Looking at the devastated village before him and his hands stained with blood, Jin Peng knelt on the ground and cried in despair.

The guilt in my heart turned into a painful poison that penetrated deep into my bones, and my mental will gradually fell to the brink of collapse.

But the Yaksha blood in his body was boiling with excitement because of killing. This contrast even made Jin Peng begin to hate himself.

"I'm damned! I'm damned!"

"Boom! Boom!"

Jin Peng pounded the ground hard, and did not stop even though his flesh and blood were all over the place.

Until the bones in his hands were exposed, Jin Peng began to tear his wings again.

The pain of plucking the feathers one by one was no less than breaking a finger.

Nan Dou felt the pain of self-harm every time, but the hatred for the Dream Demon in his heart moved him more than the physical pain.

As a Yaksha, Jin Peng does not regard humans as his own kind, but the similar appearance and the will to protect humans make him feel more protective when killing humans.

Finally, he began to break down.

"As long as I die, if I die, no one will get hurt anymore..."

After the crazy self-mutilation, Jin Peng's eyes became empty and lifeless, his wounds kept bleeding, and the pain did not subside, but he seemed to be unable to perceive anything in the outside world.

Jin Peng stretched out his palm, and his nails began to grow longer and sharper, like a sharp sword.

"Everyone, I'm sorry..."

Jin Peng's mind flashed back to the image of his hand piercing Nan Dou's chest.

The next moment, his palm suddenly stabbed into his chest.

"Pfft!"

The sharp claws entered his body and blood flowed out. Jin Peng's arms began to tremble and an expression of fear appeared on his face.

"do not want!"

Tears in Jin Peng's eyes slid down his cheeks, and the hand that had just pierced his chest was forcibly pulled out by the Dream Demon God who controlled his body.

Even the qualification to die has been deprived!

"You should be curious about why this little Yasha hasn't collapsed mentally yet, right?"

A voice suddenly sounded in Nan Dou's mind. After a moment of hesitation, he realized that it was the Dream Demon who was talking to him.

As if to answer Nan Dou's question, a circle of villagers knelt beside Jin Peng at some point.

The controlled Jin Peng stood up and walked to a girl about ten years old. His sharp nails, which had not yet been retracted, gently scratched her cheek.

A hideous wound appeared, but the girl was not awakened by the pain. Instead, she kept a very happy smile on her face.

"Curious?"

"She is now having the happiest dream of her life. In the dream, her long-dead parents are by her side."

"Don't get me wrong, I didn't weave such a dream. The happiest dream is of course generated according to her own wishes."

"It is the most sincere and beautiful emotion in human heart. Even I envy such a beautiful dream."

"Only dreams like this are the best medicine!"

Nam Doo already guessed what was going to happen next.

A ray of black light shot out from between Jin Peng's eyebrows, piercing through the girl's body like a claw, and then grabbed out a ball of golden light.

This is the soul that carries the girl’s best wishes!

"Eat it, and you will soon forget the pain..."

The golden dream was swallowed by Jin Peng, and Nan Dou felt like he was eating almond tofu.

This is a spiritual feeling, and in fact the soul does not pass through the mouth.

The moment he swallowed the golden dream, Jin Peng's collapsing spirit became stable again, and the cruel memories began to become blurred.

"What a beautiful dream, isn't it?"

"Unfortunately, he will remember everything again during his next killing spree. Then, double the pain will be waiting for him."

"Only this pain can make him stronger."

The voice of the Dream Demon never stopped, and Nan Dou watched him devour all the souls from Jin Peng's perspective.

The objects to be devoured are actually strictly selected. The more painful people are, the more they desire happiness. As long as they are given a chance, the happier the dreams they create will be.

"see it?"

"Not only him, you will soon become a pawn in my hands."

"You are better than him, and you will definitely be stronger than him in the future!"

The voice of the Dream Demon gradually faded away, but Nan Dou's vision began to blur.

After regaining consciousness again, all he saw before him was the figure of Jin Peng spreading his wings and leaving.

Nan Dou did not chase after him because he was far inferior to Jin Peng in terms of speed.

Just now, his spirit had suffered a huge shock, and his body relaxed its control over Jin Peng's body.

"It seems that I need some means to resist His power!"
