CHAPTER 160 — THE EXPEDITION YOU FORGOT
The pale plane trembled.
The memory of the stronghold dissolved like mist under harsh light.
Stone walls faded.
Applause faded.
The cloak on his shoulders vanished.
And Long Hao stood once again before Zehell.
Her silhouette was no longer calm.
No longer measured.
There was something sharper in her smile now.
Crueler.
"You speak of hunger. Of training. Of being shaped," she said softly.
Her laughter echoed across the empty expanse.
"Why are you telling me that?" Long Hao demanded. "Why are you repeating my past?"
His voice was tight.
Controlled.
But beneath it—
Uncertainty.
"What do you have to do with it?"
Zehell laughed again.
Long.
Unrestrained.
The sound distorted the pale plane itself.
"Do you really not remember?"
Long Hao's jaw tightened.
"Remember what?"
She stepped closer.
Eyes gleaming with something far darker than before.
"Oh…"
Her smile widened.
"Right."
"I erased your memories."
