Yang Qixuan's sudden attack was blocked by Yi Huai. As Tang Yuanyuan expected, the spiritual fire failed to repel the opponent's attack, but it was not completely ineffective and still prevented the opponent's next move. In order to move forward, Yi Huai once again quickly distanced himself from Yang Qixuan in the brief moment when he was delayed by the spiritual fire.
But this time they could no longer completely evacuate to a safe place easily, because on this corridor where only two ends could leave, behind them was the ghost baby, and in front was the female ghost Yang Qixuan, who accidentally fell into He was in danger of being double-teamed.
When Tang Yuanyuan was led back to a safe distance by Yi Huai and blocked behind him again, his first reaction was to confirm whether there were any terrible wounds on the other party's back.
"Yi Huai? You weren't seriously injured, were you?"
The first thing she could say was a nervous question. While paying attention to Yang Qixuan's movements, she unconsciously reached out and touched the edges of the slightly damaged clothes and scratches on Yi Huai's back.
"It's not a serious problem." Yi Huai didn't seem to care too much about his condition. "At the critical moment, she only pierced part of the spiritual fire protection and did not cause any substantial harm to me. These minor injuries can be healed quickly as long as the spiritual power is sufficient." recover."
"It means that although she has a certain resistance to your spiritual fire, she is not completely immune, right?"
After confirming that there seemed to be no scary marks such as holes on the other party's body, she let go for a while, and then her main attention returned to Yang Qixuan, who was still on the spot and seemed not to pursue her for the time being.
"It can be understood that way." Yi Huai said, "And through the fight just now, I also understood another thing."
"Now I can confirm that her resistance to spiritual fire was deliberately cultivated by someone the day after tomorrow. She seemed to have a habitual evasive action when fighting with spiritual fire just now... and I I also felt the kind of aura on her body that shouldn’t appear on ordinary ghosts.”
"Being able to cultivate an existence that is resistant to your spiritual fire...is it an enemy you know?"
For some reason, the boy's figure suddenly reappeared in Tang Yuanyuan's mind. He did look somewhat similar to Yi Huai. It wouldn't be strange to say that he had a special connection in the past. This seemed to explain it. This foundation is everywhere for their ability to target problems.
If the other party knows Yi Huai very well, it is not surprising that he can make so many designs for him.
Yi Huai was silent for a few seconds after hearing this, and then responded in a low voice with a bad face: "If it is really the guy I thought about... maybe it does have something to do with me..."
"Maybe you are right, this may have been a trap for us from the beginning..."
So is the real purpose of the mastermind behind the scenes seeking revenge? Tang Yuanyuan couldn't help but guess in his heart, what kind of relationship or festival did he have with Yi Huai?
But there is still one thing that doesn't make sense...that is the detail of Yang Qixuan's attack just now. At that time, her target was herself.
The distance between her and Yan Shuya just now was very close. If it was due to Yang Qixuan's own obsession and will, the other party would definitely choose to attack Yan Shuya first, but Yang Qixuan did not do so, which means that the raid just now was very dangerous. Maybe she was fulfilling the orders of some being.
But if the target of the mastermind behind the scenes was Yi Huai, why did she attack herself? Do you simply feel that your presence is an eyesore?
After all, the other party should not be sure that Yi Huai would be willing to sacrifice his life to save herself. She is not Yi Huai's weakness... At least before the incident just happened, she had never thought that Yi Huai would protect herself. Don't hesitate to do this.
So why on earth did you choose yourself as the target...? If this was really what the boy meant, then she always felt that he was deliberately guiding her to do things that were beneficial to her, or what was the purpose of that smile towards her outside the corridor?
As soon as Tang Yuanyuan recalled what happened to the boy, his mind seemed to feel a dull pain, as if his thoughts had turned into a mess. In addition, there was an unknown sense of loss in his heart.
She couldn't help but rub her temples to adjust herself, because she knew that now was not the right time to dwell on something that was difficult to answer.
"Hey, why are you two still in the mood to chat now?" Yan Shuya, who had quickly retreated back to the safe area behind the Zhen Palace when the female ghost attacked, suddenly interrupted their words and stamped her feet anxiously. Stomping his feet, "We are surrounded by a flank now?! We should run away quickly! If there is anything important, can we leave here before we talk?"
Upon hearing this, Tang Yuanyuan glanced at Yan Shuya who was anxious behind him, and then said with a complicated expression:
"In fact, our real purpose is to find the female ghost Yang Qixuan... Although it is different from the expected meeting situation, no matter what, our best choice now is to stay here instead of leaving."
"Since she has been hiding in the dark and takes the initiative to show up, it means that the current situation should be more beneficial to the other party. There is a high probability that the things they have been delaying to prepare or things are almost completed, so that's why Will choose to show up and attack us."
Yan Shuya was stunned when she heard this: "Prepared things? What else can she prepare if she is dead?"
Yan Shuya obviously couldn't keep up with Tang Yuanyuan's thoughts and rhythm. As an ordinary person who was involved in such a thing, she couldn't understand the abnormality of what happened on this campus.
In fact, because Tang Yuanyuan deliberately avoided communication with Yi Huai and Zhen, she still thought that the most dangerous existence here was the female ghost Yang Qixuan. She felt that as long as she solved Yang Qixuan, everything would go smoothly.
Of course, Tang Yuanyuan really didn't have the chance or enough time to explain these things to Yan Shuya, because it was too time-consuming to tell the whole thing about this incident, including the speculation, and tell her some of the things behind it. The truth will have no substantive effect either.
Tang Yuanyuan knew that Yan Shuya was different from herself. She shouldn't have too much to do with these things. The more she knew, the more dangerous and unfortunate she would be. So in the end she could only choose to keep the important parts. Confidentiality.
So when faced with Yan Shuya's question, she just shook her head and responded briefly: "I don't have time to explain too much. You only need to know that there is a mastermind behind Yang Qixuan's transformation into a ghost, and he changed from her The plan had already been started during her lifetime, taking advantage of her selfishness and emotions, and she was used as a pawn until her death."
"So what we really need to face now is not only the female ghost Yang Qixuan, but also the real instigator. If you really want to leave this mutated campus safely, then it is better to ask less questions and act more from now on. We need your cooperation."
After Tang Yuanyuan said this, he took a long breath and ignored Gu Yanshuya's unbelievable expression. Instead, he faced Yi Huai again, who seemed to have fully recovered and was even controlling the spiritual fire, and asked aloud:
"Yi Huai, judging from your fight just now, if we confront female ghosts and ghost babies head-on, do we have any chance of winning or trapping them?"
"There is no problem at all." Yi Huai narrowed his eyes and responded loudly, "Although I am now affected by spiritual power and I don't have many methods at my disposal, there is still no problem in dealing with such ghosts that have been fed quickly."
"That female ghost is not completely immune to spiritual fire, and I can still deal with her even without using spiritual fire."
After receiving Yi Huai's affirmative reply, Tang Yuanyuan was about to let go of his initial worries when another voice sounded in his ears.
"Don't be careless. If I'm not wrong, the ghost baby seems to have stronger resentment and spiritual power than the female ghost."
Zhen, who had been staying behind in the direction of Guiying, also followed the action, regrouped and retreated back to Tang Yuanyuan and his party.
Tang Yuanyuan breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Zhen following him. At the same time, he raised the phone in his hand and looked behind Zhen because of his words. But this time, the light of the phone's flashlight could illuminate not far away. There was no sign of anything else in the corridor.
This made Tang Yuanyuan's heart skip a beat:
"Where's the ghost baby?"
Tsunade flicked his tail and shook his head: "Disappeared."
"Just when we chose to keep our distance from it and slowly move away from it, it seemed to disappear suddenly."
"I have better night vision than you humans, so I kept paying attention to its movements when we were retreating from the rear. It had been crawling aimlessly in place, and it didn't seem to have much reaction to our departure... .”
"And just after we left it for a certain distance, it suddenly disappeared completely in the corridor. I couldn't see how it disappeared. The chaotic atmosphere here also made it impossible for me to judge whether it left here or not. Just hid in a house somewhere.”
Yan Shuya was delighted when she heard this: "Is this a good thing? If it is really gone, it means we can deal with a ghost first, right?"
Tang Yuanyuan's face changed as she listened to Zhen's description. A sudden thought popped into her mind. She said with a bad expression:
"Could it be that Yang Qixuan came back here to look for the ghost baby...and then saw us happen to encounter the ghost baby and suddenly rushed out to attract our attention, right?"
"Her purpose is to protect the ghost baby? Is the ghost baby the key to their plan?"
"Could it be simply because the female ghost protects her child..." Yan Shuya subconsciously continued without understanding what Tang Yuanyuan said, but Yi Huai's voice interrupted her the next second.
"The female ghost is about to break free from the shackles of the spiritual fire and run away." Yi Huai reminded Tang Yuanyuan, indirectly verifying her suspicion. Then he used his spiritual power to control different spiritual fires to change forms and delay Yang Qixuan. Question to Tang Yuanyuan:
"To kill or not to kill?"
