Is it not connected to the real world?

What does that mean?

Shangguan Hao looked at Yuan Mu Ye in a daze, asking what he meant by this.

Yuan Mu Ye looked at Shangguan Hao as if he were looking at an idiot.

"Haven't you realized it yet? This is Yun City, that's right, but in a sense, this is another world parallel to Yun City."

After hearing his explanation, Shangguan Hao realized that, simply put, this is not the real world.

Shangguan Hao suddenly felt like crying, he just wanted to leave Yun City safely, was it that difficult?

If this is not the real world, and they have no way to go back, then are they going to be trapped here?

Thinking of this, Shangguan Hao became even more worried.

"Then let's quickly find a way to leave here!"

Shangguan Hao didn't know what Yuan Mu Ye was thinking. It was already this time, and he could still be so calm. If it were an ordinary person, he would probably be extremely anxious.

It's not that Yuan Mu Ye wasn't anxious, but he knew that even if he was anxious at this time, it would be useless. If he wanted to leave here, he had to solve the current trouble first, and their current trouble was the people in the square.

The scream just now should have been to lure them here.

"You're so smart, then you come up with a solution!" Yuan Mu Ye replied coldly.

Shangguan Hao rolled his eyes at Yuan Mu Ye, this was as good as saying nothing.

Yuan Mu Ye walked around the square, wanting to find some useful clues, but found nothing. Just when they were clueless, a golden light suddenly appeared above them.

This golden light made it difficult for them to open their eyes.

When the light weakened, and they opened their eyes again, a Buddha statue appeared in the sky above them.

The Buddha statue was very large and somewhat intimidating.

But strangely, shouldn't the Buddha give people a feeling of compassion? But the Buddha in front of him gave people a strange feeling.

Shangguan Hao widened his eyes, and for a moment thought he was dreaming, subconsciously pinching his arm.

It hurt, it wasn't a dream!

"Holy shit, what the hell is going on?" Shangguan Hao asked in a low voice.

Yuan Mu Ye rolled his eyes at him and said in a displeased tone, "Will you die if you don't talk?"

Yuan Mu Ye was also seeing this kind of scene for the first time, how would he know what was going on.

Yuan Mu Ye stared at the Buddha and tentatively asked, "May I ask, are you the Buddha?"

"City God, long time no see!" The Buddha slowly spoke.

"Buddha, I wonder what you brought us here for?"

Although Yuan Mu Ye was also a little excited, the main thing was important.

"Do you want to save the people in the square?" The Buddha asked in return.

Yuan Mu Ye was a little surprised, what did he mean by asking this?

"Buddha, you can speak directly if you have something to say, there is no need to beat around the bush."

"If you want to save these people, then kill the person next to you."

Hearing this, Yuan Mu Ye was stunned.

The Buddha actually asked him to kill someone?

Shouldn't the Buddha be compassionate? Why would he ask him to kill someone? Something's not right, definitely not right!

When Shangguan Hao heard this, his legs went weak, and he almost sat on the ground, looking at the Buddha in front of him in horror, not understanding why the Buddha asked Yuan Mu Ye to kill him as soon as he came.

"Buddha, why do you want him to kill me?"

"How many people have you killed? Others don't know, don't you know yourself?" The Buddha questioned Shangguan Hao.

Shangguan Hao was speechless for a moment. Since the evil spirits had broken through Yun City, he had indeed killed many people. Although he had not done it himself, many people had died because of him.

"Buddha, can't you give me another chance? Don't monks often say, 'Lay down the butcher knife and become a Buddha on the spot'?"

After saying that, Shangguan Hao knelt on the ground and kowtowed to the Buddha, regardless of everything else.

In the blink of an eye, Shangguan Hao's forehead was bleeding from kowtowing.

Seeing this, Yuan Mu Ye didn't have any sympathy, because this was Shangguan Hao's own fault.

"It's useless even if you kowtow to death here today." The Buddha spoke again.

Yuan Mu Ye couldn't help but frown. He was sure that the Buddha in front of him was not a real Buddha. A real Buddha could not have murderous intentions, even if it was to save people.

Now he had to expose the true face of this fake Buddha.

"Buddha, may I ask, is there no other way?"

Although Yuan Mu Ye also wanted to kill Shangguan Hao, the current situation was obviously problematic. If he killed Shangguan Hao at that time, he would not be able to solve the problem, but would make the problem worse, wouldn't that be a loss?

"There is another way, but this way is faster. It's worth it to exchange so many people's lives for his life. Besides, this person doesn't deserve to live at all." When the Buddha said this, his tone was a bit fierce.

Yuan Mu Ye couldn't help but shudder. If he really killed Shangguan Hao, he might be the next one to die.

"Buddha, when did you become so cruel?" Yuan Mu Ye questioned the Buddha.

This question directly stumped the Buddha.

"Are you questioning me? I'm helping you save people. If you think my approach is wrong, you don't have to listen to me, but I must remind you that if this person doesn't die, these people will not come back to life."

Why was he so sure?

Yuan Mu Ye felt that there was only one possibility, and that was that all of this was done by this supreme fake Buddha.

"Buddha, you are compassionate, why can't you directly save these people? Although Shangguan Hao deserves to die, but..."

Before Yuan Mu Ye could finish speaking, he was directly interrupted by the Buddha.

"Why are there so many 'buts'? Time is running out. If you can't save those people within the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, then they will all die. You have to consider it carefully. It's still worth it to exchange one person's life for so many people's lives."

If it was really like what he said, then it was indeed very worthwhile.

"Yuan Mu Ye, I don't want to die!"

Shangguan Hao immediately stood up from the ground. The blood on his forehead flowed down his cheeks, making him look quite pitiful. He didn't bother to wipe the blood from his forehead, walked to Yuan Mu Ye, and looked at Yuan Mu Ye with a pleading expression.

Yuan Mu Ye sighed helplessly. For a moment, he didn't know what to do, because he couldn't determine whether all of this was a trap or real.

"Shangguan Hao, do you think it's worth it to exchange your life for so many people's lives?"

Shangguan Hao replied directly without thinking, "Why should I? Although I have done wrong things, I don't owe those people anything. Why should I use my life to exchange for their lives?"
