I was stunned for a moment before I reacted.

"Haha..." I burst into laughter.

Turns out, this place is full of ghosts. I've been played around by a group of ghosts.

My heart ached so much that I couldn't breathe, and I just lay down on the ground.

The talisman was scorching hot. I tried to grab it, but I couldn't take it out. It was visibly merging into my body at a rapid speed.

"It seems that the talisman I gave you is starting to take effect."

"Your body can only be mine!"

His face suddenly became hideous, revealing a greedy gaze.

I could feel the blood in my body slowly draining away.

Upon hearing Jiang Yi's words, Luo Qing suddenly became excited, her eyes turning crimson.

With her disfigured hands pierced by the needles, she lunged at me, aiming for my heart.

Oh, what's this? They're desperate. Both ghosts want me. It seems I'm quite popular.

I chuckled self-deprecatingly, closed my eyes, and didn't care anymore. Life or death, it's all the same.

But the expected pain didn't come. I opened my eyes, and Luo Qing was gradually detaching the talisman that had merged into my body.

Even my flesh felt the talisman's scorching heat, not to mention her soul.

Her hand was burning red, but she still didn't let go.

"What are you doing, Luo Qing? Let go!"

She didn't answer, and her own soul was becoming transparent.

"Luo Qing!" I shouted.

I admit I panicked, unsure of what she meant.

In an instant, she successfully pulled out that talisman.

"An An, I want you to know that I never intended to harm you."

"An An, live well!"

Under the influence of the talisman and the formation, her fragile soul couldn't hold on any longer and disappeared before me, leaving nothing behind.

Without that talisman, my body suddenly felt light.

"Heh, you're quite capable. I underestimated all of you."

"But so what? Once you're inside this formation, don't even think about escaping."

He was almost going mad.

"What if I insist on leaving?" I said each word resolutely. I hadn't even reacted to Luo Qing's departure, but I had to quickly deal with this trouble in front of me.

I drew out the peach wood sword and stabbed him. He said that if the sword pierced his chest, his soul would scatter.

He didn't expect me to easily break free from the formation. Without any defense, I precisely stabbed him in the heart.

It's fortunate, because at that time, a trace of goodwill led me to accidentally remove two needles from his formation, preventing his formation from exerting its full power.

He also didn't expect that the peach wood sword I used to remove Luo Qing would be lodged in his own chest at this moment.

When you leave no room for negotiation and commit too many evil deeds, they will eventually backfire on you.

I kicked Jiang Yi into the formation.

"Enjoy the formation you set up yourself!"

He laughed maniacally.

"I can't leave, and neither can you!

"None of you will leave here alive!"

Before the words even fell, the tiles on the ceiling started falling down, and the entire villa collapsed.

Jiang Yi, you bastard!

I quickly rushed to the door and ran madly towards the outskirts of the estate, ignoring the falling debris.

I had only one thought in my mind: I want to survive and leave this place!

The mountain road was slippery, and I ran too fast, losing my footing and falling down.

"An An, An An."

There was a person reaching out to me in the darkness, a hand tied with a red string.

This time, I grabbed it.
