Ding dong—
The elevator doors slowly slid open.
Although it was only a short distance away, Magong Tong couldn’t see anything inside the elevator.
It was as if the light itself was afraid of the pitch-black elevator.
In the next mont,
Magong Tong was pushed into the elevator by Hetian Wu without hesitation.
She collapsed to the floor, unable to move.
Then the elevator doors slowly closed above, and the light was stripped away bit by bit—
In the instant the elevator doors closed, Hetian Wu’s smug voice echoed once more, "Please rember what I said, Miss Magong. It won’t be long before Mr. Beichuan is also delivered here..."
But before she could finish her sentence, the sound of a body being struck down was heard, and simultaneously, Hetian Wu’s panicked scream followed, "Wait?! Beichuan? Why are you here—"
Bang!!!!
A heavy thud of a body hitting the ground ca from outside the elevator.
But none of that mattered to Magong Tong anymore.
She could feel...
Darkness and chilliness were creeping into her limbs.
At the sa ti, a series of crisp sounds reached her ears.
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
Outside the elevator at that mont,
Beichuan Si glanced at the scattered remnants of the Church of Truth and Happiness lying all over the ground.
Hetian Wu.
It was indeed this woman.
The last ti Magong Tong said that she didn’t know where to go after finishing her part-ti job, Beichuan Si had already vaguely suspected sothing.
This woman was also close to core mbers like Shirasaki Chiyoda, and she was the only woman who knew the identity connected to Beidao Temple. So, it wasn’t hard to guess that she was the one who leaked the fake identity to the other mbers of the Church of Truth and Happiness.
And this woman was also on Gangye Yoshiko’s arrest list; however, because this person was so good at hiding, Gangye Yoshiko had not been able to bring her in.
It seed that this massive arrest operation had cornered them, so in desperation, they kidnapped Magong Tong.
But now was not the ti to think about these things.
Beichuan Si looked towards the elevator in front of him.
Under his gaze, the numbers on the elevator screen were flashing wildly.
Not limited to a height of a dozen floors, numbers like 999 were also flashing from ti to ti.
He had already seen Magong Tong being taken into this spiritual realm elevator when he rushed over. If he delayed any further, the situation might be dire.
"Ruyue Nao is hidden inside here..." Beichuan Si’s eyes flashed with a deadly aura as he let out a breath, death lingering between his fingers.
He extended his palm flat and then, as if grasping the invisible space,
accompanied by the grating noise of ’kaka kaka’, a small crack appeared in the seemingly empty space in front of him.
Originally, he planned to co here tonight to eliminate Ruyue Nao, but he didn’t expect that these remnants of the Church of Truth and Happiness had actually expedited the process.
Beichuan Si glanced at Hetian Wu lying on the ground, her face bruised and unable to move.
When he had just run over, he had heard this woman say sothing coldly, sothing about ’Beichuan Si will eventually be sent in, as bait for the God of Happiness’...
Now, it seems she got her wish.
"Yongshi." Beichuan Si patted the Shinra Bell.
"Mr. Temple, I can feel that Tong is right in this part of the spiritual realm. The last ti we t, Shihui and I planted the Shenzhu Clan’s exorcism spells on her, which should be able to ward off that resentful spirit for a while."
Indeed, Magong Yongshi and Shenzhu Shihui had not t Magong Tong in vain the last two tis.
In secret, they had planted the Shenzhu Clan’s purifying spells on Magong Tong, which should protect her for a while.
It was also fortunate for their foresight; otherwise, Magong Tong would truly be in danger right now.
"Hmm. Let’s go."
Beichuan Si did not dawdle; upon hearing Magong Yongshi’s words, he stepped into the spiritual space without hesitation.
The mont he stepped into the spiritual realm, the rift in the spiritual realm imdiately shrank and eventually sealed tightly.
...
The spiritual space. This is a place constructed from the resentnt of the dead, and most of the ti it presents the most profound scenery from human mory.
Even more powerful spiritual realms can even affect reality.
And for Ruyue Nao, the scene with the most obsession, the most profound, was—
"Classroom?" Beichuan Si frowned.
This place looked like an abandoned high school, definitely not the interior of that apartnt.
Roughly arranged student desks and chairs, and the grey and tattered walls with blood-curdling blood graffiti...
"Mr. Temple. Outside!"
Magong Yongshi’s voice rang out urgently.
The mont he heard her voice, Beichuan Si had already raised his head and looked outside.
From here, looking outside the classroom, one could clearly see a huge distorted figure drifting by, that heavy malice was undoubtedly Ruyue Nao.
Beichuan Si no longer hesitated, he moved his feet and rushed straight out of the door.
Then——
Beichuan Si’s entire body soared into mid-air.
"What’s this...?"
Beichuan Si looked at where he had co from with so surprise.
Sohow, the door that used to be to the classroom had now beco the door to the rooftop, and because he hadn’t stopped his montum, he had shot out of the rooftop door.
The rooftop was bare, with no railings at all.
Now was not the ti to think about these things——
Beichuan Si flicked his fingers, Jian Ding shot out as soon as he grasped it, embedding directly into the outer wall of the school. Then, with the solidity ford by the shape of death qi, it beca a point of leverage.
Using this point of resistance, Beichuan Si’s body soared high with a flip and then reached out to grab the edge of the rooftop, bent his waist, and flipped cleanly back onto the rooftop.
Having landed back on solid ground, Beichuan Si furrowed his brows.
He thoughtfully turned his head to look at the rooftop entrance.
He had clearly rushed out of the classroom just now, so how had the classroom’s exit led to the rooftop?
"The uncertainty of the space behind the door...?" Beichuan Si reflected for a mont before coming up with the answer.
Ruyue Nao had died behind the elevator door, all to master this ability.
The ability to turn the spiritual space inside out.
Had it not been for Beichuan Si’s ability to shape death qi, he would have already fallen to his death when he charged out of the rooftop a mont ago.
He stared at the dark entrance of the rooftop.
What lay beyond the door could only be known by walking through.
What the eyes saw might not always be the truth.
Beichuan Si took a deep breath.
How many doors does a school have?
How could anyone count them all?
If the spaces behind these doors are all swapped around, then finding Magong Tong would simply be a matter of luck.
But regardless, he had to search.
Ti waits for no one.
Although Magong Yongshi could still sense that Magong Tong was alive, there was no guarantee that the situation wouldn’t change.
And there were so things he was particularly curious about...
Thinking it over, Beichuan Si once again walked towards the exit of the rooftop.
As he stepped through the door, Beichuan Si could clearly feel the environnt around him flip over, with everything changing in the blink of an eye.
Beichuan Si had returned to the classroom he’d been in before.
Class 2-A.
Beichuan Si murmured the words on the class sign.
Before him was still the dark sliding door of the classroom.
This ti, Beichuan Si didn’t hesitate and walked towards the sliding door again.
Still with a clear sensation of spatial transition, as Beichuan Si lifted his head again, he found he had once again returned to the rooftop.
This discovery made Beichuan Si’s gaze flicker.
It seed that the spatial inversion of each door was fixed.
Just like the entrance of Class 2-A was fixed to lead to the rooftop, the exit of the rooftop led consistently back to Class 2-A.
This also ant that Ruyue Nao might still not be able to manipulate the ability to control door spaces at will.
She could only rigidly fix the spaces in place.
If that was the case——
Beichuan Si’s eyes sparkled. He already had an idea on how to quickly find Magong Tong.
