In the alliance, the more they attack me, the stronger I become!

Chapter 88: Brother Togo, You Are So Gentle

That’s right… there’s no doubt about it…

That familiar soul...that voice...

"Cheng Xiao!"

The Frost Witch woke up from her sleep. Her fair back was soaked with sweat, and the thin robe she pulled at felt sticky.

She is a ruthless dream stealer who has made countless people's dreams disappear and woken countless people from their dreams, but this is the first time she has woken up herself.

The content of the dream lingered in her mind, and that familiar voice almost became an obsession in her heart.

She missed that person so much.

A few months passed in the blink of an eye in her long life, and the scene of that day was still vivid in her mind... If she had the chance, she would try to find that person at all costs.

Cheng Xiao... that was her most cherished treasure, and also a powerful weapon to suppress the Void Watchers. No matter what, she wanted to see him again.

"I saw your dream... Your consciousness is still awake... You are still here..."

Lissandra muttered to herself, her body unconsciously standing up from the throne. She began to pace back and forth in the dark main castle, her mind full of thoughts of that lovely child.

"I can't let you out, but... if you can still enter the 'dream', then I can enter your dream..."

"We can meet again... We can meet in your dreams..."

"I will always be in contact with you, accompanying you, and ensuring that your consciousness does not fall into eternal sleep... After hundreds or thousands of years, I will definitely find a way to free you alone..."

"I can definitely—"

Lissandra suddenly shut up midway through her joyful soliloquy.

She lowered her head and sensed her current body.

More beautiful than ever, but also more fragile than ever.

Her idea was to wait until she found a way to release Cheng Xiao alone, a process that could take hundreds or even thousands of years. In her past, this amount of time wouldn't have mattered to her; she could simply wait, as long as she could stabilize Cheng Xiao's consciousness.

but now……

Ever since that great battle... ever since she sacrificed herself to use True Ice Magic...

Her powers weakened, and her lifespan was no longer eternal.

She wasn't sure how long she could live... a thousand years? A hundred years? Or maybe just... a few short decades?

The joy in my heart disappeared in an instant, replaced by a deep sense of fear and powerlessness.

The Great Frost Witch had hardly ever considered her own death... but now, she had to face it.

How much time do I have left to live? Can I find a way to rescue Cheng Xiao in this fleeting time?

Who will take over and continue to guard the Void Watcher after I am gone? Who can secretly resolve the threat of foreign invaders and defeat the Noxian fleet?

There are still too many problems on this ice field...how can she be at ease?

Lissandra was silent.

The feeling of helplessness and loneliness enveloped her, almost making it difficult for her to breathe.

But maybe now is not the time to feel sorry for herself. She may not be able to solve the troubles in the future, but at least now... at least she can still see Cheng Xiao again.

Just proceed step by step, and future problems will naturally have future solutions.

Lissandra opened the main castle gate after a long absence. The howling cold wind blew on her body without the protection of True Ice, further highlighting the coldness of the night.

Walking in the dark and deep corridor, she gradually felt the extreme chill - the ice that sealed the devil and Cheng Xiao.

She stood in front of the ice sculpture, carefully sensing the person inside... feeling every inch of his body.

She wanted to "see" again whether Cheng Xiao's body was intact, and then enter his dream to meet him.

But just when she was about to finish her investigation...

A faint breath of magic suddenly came.

This bit of magic power was not offensive at all and would not threaten anyone, but the powerful Frost Witch instantly showed a look of panic.

Because of this magic...

It's the breath of that devil!

"Has the Zhenbing loosened?"

Lissandra immediately increased her magic output, expanding the scope of exploration to the entire ice sculpture, and even extending to every corner of the Frost Castle.

Fortunately, she didn't sense Aatrox's magic again.

Only that one ray just now... the one that seemed to have deliberately struck her...

The joy of reuniting with Cheng Xiao was instantly diluted, and what remained was a deep uneasiness - she suspected that Zhen Bing's seal had loosened, or that the demon was not completely sealed at that time, otherwise how could the demon's magic power be transmitted to the outside world?

Adding to that dream I just glimpsed... not only is Cheng Xiao's soul intact, but the demon's soul is also...

Could it be that he really has the ability to influence the outside world, or even break free from his restraints...?

What loophole did the True Ice Magic have...

A feeling of unease took root in Lissandra's heart, and the mottled shadows of the trees almost covered her entire heart.

She didn't dare to be lazy at all, let alone have any hope of luck. She waved her hand and summoned countless pieces of ice.

Not only did it wrap around the True Ice, it also completely blocked the corridor to prevent any unsuspecting mortals from approaching and being seized by Aatrox to take over their bodies.

Then she quickly retreated to her main castle and sat on the Frozen Throne again.

She released a cold, sleep-inducing magic that affected herself.

Her consciousness gradually separated from her body.

Start entering other people's dreams...

---------------------------------------------

-------------------------

The days of being sealed are boring.

It was fine when Aatrox was around; Cheng Xiao could just poke (teasing) him and make him angry (playing) to pass the time. But if Aatrox really broke down and stopped chatting, it would be really boring.

There is nothing in the world of the soul but darkness and silence.

Being trapped in a place like this is much more painful than being in prison in real life.

There is no sound, no objects, no freedom... It is easy to distort a person's mind if you stay in such a place for a long time.

Cheng Xiao could somewhat understand the change in Aatrox now - it would be hard not to go crazy after being held solitary confinement in a place like this for thousands of years.

Whether it is a mortal or a god warrior, being locked up for a long time will definitely cause mental abnormalities.

It is not difficult to understand why he wants to massacre the world.

But of course, Cheng Xiao doesn't want to become as crazy as Aatrox.

So he passed the time by sleeping.

Once you fall asleep, you can close your eyes and open them again for several days or even dozens of days. It is much easier to kill time this way, and it is less easy to break down mentally.

So after Aatrox left, he immediately fell asleep.

Then he had a sweet dream—

In his dream, he beat up Aatrox and made the Darkin Sword his weapon. Aatrox became the "weapon spirit" residing in the sword, acting as his supporting actor every day, calling him "big brother" all the time, and begging him to help seek revenge on Twilight Star Spirit. It would also be best not to engrave words like "I really want to be Miss Twilight Star Spirit's dog" on the sword.

He also regained his freedom. Ashe, Sejuani, and Lissandra happily embraced him as he climbed to the top again under the gaze of all the Freljord Alliance members. Finally, the three sisters all showed shy expressions in his arms and pulled him into the dark tent...

A very nice dream.

until……

"Cheng Xiao, Cheng Xiao..."

Lissandra in his arms suddenly pushed him away, her fair cheeks turning red, as if she was embarrassed and a little angry.

"Cheng Xiao, what are you thinking about at this moment..."

"Huh?" Cheng Xiao was very confused.

But before he could react, the Lissandra in his dream had already made a move beyond his control. How could this proud frost witch be... intimate with a mortal? Not to mention serving a man with two other women?

She felt disdain and annoyance at such unrealistic fantasies.

So she simply waved her hand and tore the dream apart.

Ashe and Sejuani, who were leaning on Cheng Xiao in a seductive pose, were instantly torn into pieces, and then disappeared into the eternal nothingness as the dream gradually shattered.

Cheng Xiao immediately wailed, but there was no way to stop it. He could only pinch his thigh hard, hoping to wake up quickly and have another sweet dream - this beautiful dream had been ruined!

"Wake up, wake up... wake up and go back to sleep, wake up and go back to sleep..."

Cheng Xiao closed his eyes and recited silently, while the Frost Witch beside him had a helpless look on her face.

"Okay, Cheng Xiao," Lissandra said helplessly, "You are indeed dreaming now, but I am not the me in your dream, but the real me."

"This isn't true, this isn't true... Heaven and earth, please wake up..."

"Stop it, Cheng Xiao. Now it's real. I've entered your dream and want to discuss something with you."

"Hmm..." Cheng Xiao opened his eyes half-believingly, and the shattered void before his eyes had been replaced by another scene - a vast ice field.

Only he and the dignified and elegant Frost Witch stood on this endless ice field.

"Ahem... It's nice to see you again, respected Frost Witch." Although Cheng Xiao was surprised that she could fully enter his dream again, the most important thing now was to quickly put the past behind him...

That dream...it would be too embarrassing if others saw it.

Or Lissandra, one of the “parties involved”…

"Well... you don't have to be so polite." Lissandra nodded slightly, her every move revealing her usual elegance, but in fact, her slightly tilted body still revealed the... strange feeling in her heart.

She had a clear view of Cheng Xiao's dream, and knew where she was the moment she entered the dream... It was impossible to say that she wasn't embarrassed.

Leaning in Cheng Xiao's arms or something like that... She had never even thought about this kind of thing...

It feels weird...

How could he, a living fossil who had lived for countless centuries, be leaning on a child's arms... And how could he have such an impolite dream...

But... besides being weird...

Ok……

Lissandra was furious at Cheng Xiao's disrespectful behavior in her dream—how could she imagine her like this and insult her dignity as queen? But deep down, she didn't seem to be completely disgusted.

She couldn't figure out what that feeling was, and she didn't have time to think about it. Now was not the time to be angry.

She took several deep breaths to calm herself down, then continued, "Cheng Xiao, I'm glad your consciousness didn't dissipate, allowing me to enter your dream and contact you."

"I'm also very happy to see you again..." Cheng Xiao secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "Otherwise, the days of being sealed would be too boring. If possible, please come and chat with me from time to time."

"I will." Lissandra nodded, "But before that, I must solve a big problem."

"what?"

"The devil's magic has affected the outside world."

"Ok?"

Cheng Xiao immediately became serious.

But before he could ask carefully, another external magical power invaded his dream.

Aatrox doesn't have the ability to enter other people's dreams like Lissandra, but his soul is sealed together with Cheng Xiao's soul, and he can easily connect with it.

It was naturally not difficult for him to enter Cheng Xiao's dream - just like the quarrel that Lissandra had seen earlier.

"Let me see what kind of vile maggot has broken into my cage?"

A deep, hoarse voice echoed in the dream world, revealing a hint of teasing.
