Jiang Nuo looked down at him, as if puzzled, "Didn't you send me to kill him?"
"This is a vengeful ghost. If you don't kill it, your lives will be in danger."
His tone was casual, yet it sent chills down one's spine.
"But..."
Ming Xu nervously tightened her grip on her clothes and whispered, "But Jin Jin said in the mirror... that we should rescue her."
Is she really Jin Jin?
Even though she could read lips, Ming Xu still chose to trust Jiang Nuo's judgment.
Jiang Nuo: "Of course, a ghost's words don't count."
"Well, okay then."
Ming Xu could only retreat, but her eyes remained fixed on Jin Jin, who was struggling desperately in the mirror—such a vivid person, with fear in his eyes.
Is it really a vengeful ghost?
The mix of truth and falsehood tonight made it impossible for Ming Xu to make a judgment.
Jiang Nuo raised her hand, looking at Jin Jin in the mirror with a smile in her eyes. Her whole demeanor was imposing, and her smile was devoid of emotion.
Just a second before the mirror was destroyed, Yang Xiaoxiao suddenly interrupted again.
" Brother Jiang!"
Jiang Nuo lowered her eyelids, looking at him impatiently, "What is it now?"
"I... I wanted to ask, did you see another Brother Si tonight? You mean... the one in the mirror."
Yang Xiaoxiao also noticed that something was wrong with Jiang Nuo in front of her.
To be precise, it seems to be very different from the current Jiang Nuo, like a ghost without emotions...
Yang Xiaoxiao was extremely nervous, and she simply did not believe that the three of them combined could defeat this ghost Jiang Nuo in front of her.
Gui Jiang Nuo seemed to sense something, and his eerie gaze swept over the three still unharmed living people in the room.
" Si Yan ~ I saw it."
"Didn't I just say... he's sleeping upstairs?"
The word "sleep" was emphasized so heavily that it made it seem like there was no problem with it.
Yang Xiaoxiao's face turned pale; her mind was filled with the thought that the real Si Yan had been killed by the fake Jiang Nuo.
Wouldn't they all be doomed?
Just then, footsteps sounded in the hallway outside the door.
Zhu An, who had been holding the doorknob, became alert, immediately opened the door, and pulled Yang Xiaoxiao out.
Looking back.
" Jiang Nuo!"
"Huh?"
Jiang Nuo looked up, "Why aren't you sleeping so late at night..."
Bang!
A suction force pulled them both back in, and the door slammed shut again.
Jiang Nuo blinked and looked at Si Yan, "Why didn't she let me finish what I was saying?"
"Perhaps it wasn't in time."
Si Yan looked at the drawn curtains, her tone grave.
Inside the window, Gui Jiang Nuo smiled and waved at them, exuding a sinister aura.
Then, tilting her head innocently, she said, "Oh dear, you guys spotted me."
He flung out a skull-shaped knife, his fingers slicing across the blade, and as blood dripped down, the smug smile on his face grew even more pronounced.
Yang Xiaoxiao and the other two became increasingly nervous.
"In that case... why not let him choose for himself?"
Gui Jiang Nuo knocked on the window, "There are three people inside, who would you choose to save?"
Jiang Nuo observed his expression and replied, "I won't save anyone. I'm leaving tomorrow."
Gui Jiang Nuo laughed out loud, glancing at the three of them. "He doesn't want to save you."
Yang Xiaoxiao angrily, "You're talking nonsense! Brother Jiang doesn't want to talk to you!"
Zhu An held her hand tightly, then shifted her gaze to the bedside behind Gui Jiang Nuo, where Yang Xiaoxiao had placed her bag.
Gui Jiang Nuo slowly smeared the blood flowing from his fingers onto the entire hilt of the knife. He didn't even glance at Yang Xiaoxiao, but his killing intent gradually enveloped the entire room, making it hard to breathe.
"If he won't choose, I'll choose for you, in the form of... a game."
The loser dies.
Zhu An released Yang Xiaoxiao's hand, trying to remain calm, and walked towards Gui Jiang Nuo, saying, "I choose you."
"What...?"
"Didn't they say that the person who chooses the room will die?"
Zhu An slowly approached the bag, still maintaining her composure, "I choose your death."
Gui Jiang Nuo's eyes flickered, and suddenly he clenched his fingers, grabbing the bag in front of Zhu An's surprised gaze.
"Trying to use talismans against me won't work. I am Jiang Nuo."
Jiang Nuo exclaimed, "So handsome!"
Si Yan paused for two seconds, looked at the people inside, and then turned to look at Jiang Nuo.
The other version of him could almost perfectly replicate it, but Jiang Nuo could tell something was wrong at a glance.
" Nuonuo, he seems... different from you."
Jiang Nuo also noticed it, observing the ghost's expression, and felt a strange sense of unease.
He stared out the window, lost in thought, when suddenly he took a deep breath.
"This looks like me from before."
"Which 'before'?" Si Yan asked.
That's when it's at its craziest.
Jiang Nuo nodded firmly, patting his chest in fright, mimicking the description of him in the dungeon during that period.
"Crazy Jiang Nuo's left eye is red; anyone who sees him will die!"
"So, this mirror monster can evolve."
Jiang Nuo seemed completely unconcerned about the situation inside, counting on her fingers.
"From initially being unable to control facial expressions, to achieving a perfect imitation and being able to use illusions, now is the time to choose this person when their strength is at its peak."
Si Yan: "Thinking... in the process of imitation, it gradually acquires human thought patterns."
This is hardly good news.
"I'll go in and kill him," Si Yan said, touching Jiang Nuo's face. "I can do it."
Jiang Nuo hissed and gently rubbed his hand. "To be honest..."
"Even I'm not sure I could beat them now."
Si Yan: "..."
Fear.
That's terrifying.
Jiang Nuo: "Ugh, I should have killed that bastard Lin Yu later."
"At least he'll know what my weaknesses were back then."
At this moment, the three people in the room were almost killed by Gui Jiang Nuo.
Jiang Nuo knocked on the window, which shattered under everyone's gaze. Two glass panes of Jiang Nuo faced each other, clearly showing the same face, but with completely different expressions.
Are you here to die?
Gui Jiang Nuo's voice was low and menacing as he lightly tapped her neck with his fingertips, "I could kill you with ease."
Who knows?
Jiang Nuo tilted her head, her eyes defiant, "A monster, actually thinking of himself as a human being."
The moment the words left their mouths, the two attacked each other almost simultaneously, filling the entire room with ghostly energy.
Si Yan pulled his coat tighter around himself from the cold, his phoenix eyes showing worry, but things were moving too fast for him to help.
During the struggle, Jiang Nuo gradually discovered something.
Just as he said, ultimately this former "self" was a mutation of the mirror monster.
It's impossible to perfectly replicate his power, after all, this isn't some overpowered item from a dungeon; it's a monster from reality, and you can't replicate abilities from a dungeon.
Having realized this, Jiang Nuo never stopped probing.
He stared into Gui Jiang Nuo's eyes, his left eye flashing, an overwhelming demonic power emanating from its scarlet rim, and a slight smile played on his lips.
"Fake stuff."
"Well!!"
Gui Jiang Nuo was unable to escape; her soul seemed to be frozen in place. Even though there was a mirror right in front of her, and she could escape the attack simply by going inside the mirror, she was still safe.
But he couldn't move!
Those eyes...
"Ah!"
Gui Jiang Nuo screamed in agony, filled with boundless fear, his face cracking like a shattered vase, pieces peeling off to the ground.
Jiang Nuo punched, shattering it instantly.
Si Yan's eyes narrowed slightly, and she used her Spiritual Power to shatter all the glass and mirrors in the room that could reflect people's images.
With nowhere to run, the ghost, which had been trying to escape, could only rush towards Ming Xu in the room, attempting to become another version of him.
