"Fourteenth is dead."
"Mirror Fourteenth is dead?"
"Nothing could be done. That one assigned it a formidable opponent this time. Not only did it fail to draw out her secrets, it threw away its own life."
"But someone who can withstand that one's ability will probably be hard to deal with."
"She should just be an exception. Things have gone smoothly for me and the other brothers.
"But this group does seem different from the ones who came before. There's hardly anything dark in their hearts, and their minds are exceptionally strong."
"Yes, there really isn't much darkness. The one on my side has practically lived a life of pure thoughts and few desires. He's barely had any contact with female cultivators, and he even cultivates the Heartless Dao. Tsk."
"Wouldn't that make him terribly dull?"
"Actually, he isn't entirely dull. His heart dwells on someone, but he doesn't realize it."
"What expression did he make when he saw the person deep in his heart?"
"Him? He's far too wary of me to show any expression. I reckon he doesn't believe in the people or events in the mirror, either."
"So he's a fool."
"Are we going to drag them completely into the mirrors this time, just as we trapped those four before?"
"There haven't been any instructions from above, but probably."
As the two voices conversed, they suddenly paused at the same time. They had sensed a disturbance in the mirror rooms under their control...
After Su Jiu walked out of the room, she discovered that two stone doors leading in different directions had suddenly appeared in the previously enclosed courtyard.
Looking at the two doors before her, she curled her lips slightly. Without hesitation, she walked straight toward the one on the right and pushed it open.
