Feeling that nothing of the previous events had left any mark on them, they experienced a sense of surviving a calamity.
Especially for Da B, the wounds that should have been ripped open and bleeding were now barely visible.
Then, the smiles they were about to show froze on their faces. Before them lay a cliff with no end in sight, and they stood at its edge, a single step away from falling.
They desperately wanted to turn and flee, but as soon as they turned their heads, they saw Luo Sheng standing behind them. It turned out that everything that had happened was not a dream, and the torments were merely to exhaust them.
Now, placing them on the edge of the cliff was their true retribution.
They longed to escape, but the clawing, grasping hair behind Luo Sheng blocked all their paths. The only option left was to step forward, into the abyss.
"This is the way I've chosen for you to die. What do you say? If you're sensible, jump down yourselves. If I have to do it, you'll suffer even more."
Yan Jing and Da B looked at Luo Sheng before them, then back at the bottomless cliff, trapped between a rock and a hard place.
"Luo Sheng, it was our fault for what we did to you, but they forced me. I truly didn't want to do anything to you," Da B pleaded, his voice trembling as he begged Luo Sheng for mercy.
Yan Jing knew his life was in Luo Sheng's hands. He had already died once, and he knew Luo Sheng would not let them go.
It was better to take a gamble. It was summer, and the trees below the cliff were dense. Jumping down would be cushioned by the trees, and he might not die.
While Da B was still begging Luo Sheng, Yan Jing chose to leap from the cliff.
He didn't notice that as he jumped, two ghost envoys followed him down the cliff. kanδん
There would be no accidents; the lifespans of these seven people would end today. As they took Luo Sheng's soul, they would also take these seven with them.
"Your friend is more sensible than you. Are you still waiting for me to push you?" Luo Sheng's hair narrowed its encirclement.
Da B, having been bound by the hair, knew its capabilities.
"Why do we have to jump down ourselves? You can't kill us?"
Da B felt as if he had discovered something, grasping a straw of hope. His heart immediately relaxed.
Since she couldn't lay a hand on them, what did he have to fear?
"What makes you think that?" Luo Sheng took a few more steps towards him.
"You," Da B felt Luo Sheng was merely bluffing, but he still dared not face her directly.
The hair behind Luo Sheng coiled around Da B's ankles. He wanted to dodge, but the hair was too fast.
The black hair wrapped around Da B's ankles and directly suspended him upside down.
"Let go of me, let go of me!" He struggled desperately.
"Alright, I'll let go of you now." The hair held Da B's body upside down outside the cliff, and as Luo Sheng finished speaking, it released him.
"Ah~" Da B's cry was agonizing.
The hair retracted, handing two tracking devices to Luo Sheng.
Holding the two tracking devices, Luo Sheng floated down the cliff. She had to see those two breathe their last.
When A Rui woke up, the corridor had grown dim. He was woken by A Ming standing before him.
"What happened to you?" A Ming asked, full of worry. After all, him lying there covered in blood was truly terrifying.
Although he didn't know what A Rui had gone through, it proved that this villa was becoming increasingly dangerous.
Previously, there were only minor, harmless traps, but now there was bloodshed. They had to be more careful.
"We were wrong. There really is a ghost in this villa." As A Ming helped him up, he said with lingering fear.
He truly never expected to see the person he thought he had forgotten after so many years.
But now, they met again after death, and she had returned to claim their lives.
"What do you mean by that?" A Ming was stunned. The strength he should have used relaxed.
A Rui almost fell to the ground again. He quickly grabbed the wall for support, steadying himself.
"Sorry, I was too shocked." A Ming quickly pulled A Rui back. "You said there was a ghost just now?"
"Yes, I saw it with my own eyes. We probably can't escape this time. I don't know why she let me go temporarily, but she definitely won't let us leave alive."
"Why? How did we provoke her?" A Ming found it hard to believe.
He had never believed in ghosts and spirits. Besides, even if there was a ghost in this villa, what did it have to do with them? They didn't kill the ghost.
"But she died because of us." A Rui said in great pain.
He remembered what Luo Sheng had said earlier. It turned out Luo Sheng had liked him too.
But she had prioritized her studies and had not accepted him until then.看書喇
Although their beginnings were due to a joke, he had later fallen genuinely in love. But in the end... it was his fault.
If it weren't for him, Luo Sheng wouldn't have died, and wouldn't have gone through such painful experiences. He had been too proud back then, too proud to accept Luo Sheng's rejection.
"You know that ghost?" A Ming asked in surprise.
"You know her too." A Rui closed his eyes. "Do you remember what happened in high school?"
"You, you mean?" A Ming also recalled.
"That's right, she's back."
"But that was your fault, what does it have to do with me?" A Ming found it hard to accept.
He hadn't participated in that incident. He had a girlfriend and disdained attacking girls, so he hadn't been involved in any of it.
If Luo Sheng was truly here for revenge, it had nothing to do with him!
"You probably forgot, but you provided the venue." A Rui reminded him.
It was also you, who casually said it didn't matter what you wanted to do. It was also you who erased the evidence.
Although A Ming didn't directly participate, everything he did also fueled their sin and led that incident to an irreversible end.
"I, I must leave here immediately. I told you we shouldn't have come here, I told you!" A Ming let go of A Rui, like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.
"I'll go call Yi Fei now. We must leave here immediately."
"We can't escape, none of us can escape." A Rui said somewhat hysterically.
"If you want to atone, go yourself, don't drag us down. Don't think I don't know you've fallen for that person, but you're a coward and won't admit it.
You just watched her get bullied, watched the person you loved get covered in wounds before your eyes, watched the person you liked get thrown off the rooftop by your group of shady friends.
Now, what's the use of you putting on a show? I'm not like you. I'll escape with Yi Fei. We will definitely survive."
