I had no idea what kind of creature had taken over my mother's body.
I couldn't even tell how the real her was doing.
At this moment, all I could do was stay as quiet as possible, not letting her discover me.
So, I remained crouched under the bed.
The creature was searching for me throughout the room.
She even opened the wardrobe.
And then she crouched down, trying to look under the bed!
Although I knew that Daoist Master Wu Xie had said that Painted-Skin Ghost couldn't see me for fifteen minutes,
I still held my breath, afraid to make any sound.
The jade pendant in my palm was damp with cold sweat.
I tightly shut my eyes, not daring to look directly.
After a while, the commotion in the room subsided.
I cautiously opened a slit in my eyes.
But the next second, I nearly fainted from fright!
A pair of white eyes suddenly appeared right in front of me!
My heart raced, and my lips trembled!
But fear rendered me unable to make a sound!
And this silence saved me from disaster!
The creature did not find me and stood back up.
At that moment, my clothes were already soaked with cold sweat.
Yet I remained motionless on the ground.
I was terrified that even the slightest movement would draw the creature's attention.
Time passed slowly, second by second.
Daoist Master Wu Xie had not yet appeared.
I began to anxiously glance out the window, hoping to hear some noise from outside.
But all was silent beyond the walls.
The creature seemed to have vanished.
A faint light flickered beneath the bed.
I worried that it might attract the creature's notice.
Despite my fears, I couldn't help but pull out my phone, hoping to see a message left by Daoist Master Wu Xie.
But just as the screen lit up, a pale face suddenly appeared before my eyes!
With a gaping maw filled with sharp teeth, it opened and closed menacingly:
"Finally, I've found you."
At the same time, the jade pendant around my neck lost its warmth.
My last glimmer of hope faded away...
In the next moment, the monster dragged me out from under the bed.
My scalp was painfully yanked!
Then, I was thrown to the ground!
My phone went black from the impact!
This is bad!
Now it's really over!
The monster quickly pinned me down and tightened its sharp claws around my neck!
The force was so great that I couldn't break free!
And the pressure kept increasing!
I felt as if my neck was about to snap!
A wave of suffocation washed over me!
I struggled desperately, but it was of no use!
As my consciousness began to fade, I felt death closing in on me...
In that critical moment, I heard hurried footsteps approaching from afar!
With a loud bang!
The door was kicked open!
A figure rushed into the room!
That figure engaged in a fierce battle with the Painted-Skin Ghost!
And I was finally able to catch my breath!
Daoist Master Wu Xie had arrived!
I was saved!
With all my strength, I shouted, " Daoist Master Wu Xie!"
"It's me!"
"I'm here to save you!"
While fighting the Painted-Skin Ghost, Daoist Master Wu Xie responded to me.
His voice reignited my hope!
I struggled to get up, searching for something to attack the Faceless Ghost with.
Finally, I spotted a fruit knife!
I grabbed the fruit knife and, taking advantage of the Faceless Ghost's moment of inattention, I lunged at her!
But to my surprise, the fruit knife accidentally struck Daoist Master Wu Xie in the back!
"Ugh—"
Daoist Master Wu Xie let out a muffled groan, his body faltering.
The Faceless Ghost seized the opportunity and sent him flying!
Daoist Master Wu Xie fell to the ground, blood spilling from his mouth.
"Qian Qian, you..."
He looked at me in disbelief.
"Why..."
I smiled coldly, stroking the fruit knife in my hand.
" Daoist Master Wu Xie."
"You fell for it."
Indeed.
This was a trap that Painted-Skin Ghost and I had set long ago.
The purpose was to capture someone with spiritual abilities.
Those who have consumed ghostly food will be completely obedient to Painted-Skin Ghost.
So, we staged a live broadcast.
We made the viewers in the live stream believe that I was being targeted by Painted-Skin Ghost.
But in reality, Painted-Skin Ghost and I were in cahoots.
Our goal was to transfer Painted-Skin Ghost into Daoist Master Wu Xie.
After all, his skin would allow Painted-Skin Ghost to maintain his form for an extended period.
My task was to perform well in this act and lure Daoist Master Wu Xie into coming to the rescue.
I must say, my acting skills were exceptional.
Even the viewers in the comments were completely fooled by me.
Now, everything was proceeding according to our plan.
Daoist Master Wu Xie had already been stabbed with a fruit knife.
We could peel off his skin at any moment.
But just as we were about to do so, Daoist Master Wu Xie suddenly transformed into a paper figure!
Damn it!
We actually fell for Daoist Master Wu Xie's trap!
In the next moment, a figure appeared at the door.
The person held a Peach Wood Sword and looked at me with a smile.
"You've lost."
So this was the real Daoist Master Wu Xie!
Painted-Skin Ghost and I exchanged glances.
In each other's eyes, we saw fear and unwillingness.
Sure enough, Daoist Master Wu Xie pierced through my chest with the Peach Wood Sword.
Instantly, I felt my strength begin to drain away.
In my final moments, I turned to look at Daoist Master Wu Xie.
His eyes held a mix of pity and amusement.
As if to say, "I saw through your plan long ago."
In the end, Painted-Skin Ghost and I underestimated Daoist Master Wu Xie's power...
