Frightening Joke: Above the Mist-Chapter 328 Charming Heart

Impossible...

In this situation, there’s no way to escape anymore.

Song Que and Xu Zhifei are not newcomers; they have encountered many desperate situations, but none as tricky as the one before them.

No... this has gone beyond tricky, they have no choice now, no means at all, the only thing they can do is wait for death.

As for being devoured by "Liu Ruonan" or torn apart by that towering fierce ghost, it’s entirely up to their mood.

In this moment near death, Xu Zhifei strangely didn’t think of much.

Or rather, these two ghosts left no time for the two of them to run wild with thoughts.

They eagerly pounced forward, baring sharp teeth, wanting to completely eradicate the living beings before them...

The terrifying shadows expanded continuously in front of them, until they completely enveloped them.

...

Qi Nian smiled faintly, unblinkingly looking at Bai Yanliang. He really was still himself.

Honesty is a precious quality, which Bai Yanliang always possessed.

In fact, sometimes if he chose to put things another way, he could have achieved a better effect, people call this... a kindly lie.

But Bai Yanliang never did that.

He is a person with a complicated mind but simple actions.

To him, a lie is a lie, no matter how ornate a facade it’s dressed in, its nature is still deceit.

And deceit is the behavior Bai Yanliang cannot accept at all.

Qi Nian was genuinely happy for Bai Yanliang, and for herself.

She hadn’t misjudged him.

"If... I can never leave here, leave this mansion, will you stay with me?"

This sentence... although it came from her mouth, it was not her true intention.

After she threw the key to the haunting ghost, Qi Nian inexplicably understood one thing.

She is... the next haunting ghost.

This realization came strangely and eerily but was indisputable.

From just now, Qi Nian had been enduring a strong malice.

She dared not get close to Bai Yanliang’s chest, and there was another big reason.

That is... she was afraid she wouldn’t be able to resist digging out his heart... and eating it.

Qi Nian knew that she was dying.

The moment she truly dies... the haunting ghost will appear.

Her will shall cease to exist, and the soul known as "Qi Nian" will completely dissipate, as if she had never existed in this world.

And if Bai Yanliang had chosen deceit out of kindness and agreed to her, then... Bai Yanliang would have followed her into Hell.

Qi Nian squinted her eyes, taking a deep breath.

She greedily savored the slightly moist air.

Although this is not the real world, just a fragment of the past, or a projection.

She strangely enjoyed everything before her.

If... Bai Yanliang could really stay, and remain with her on October 14, 2016, it seemed not bad?

Though she knew, it was impossible.

Just like this very moment.

What keeps him here will only be this heavy rain, not herself.

"Bai..."

Bai Yanliang’s vision blurred, he only felt his arm lighten, Qi Nian’s body disappeared into thin air.

"Goodbye..."

Her voice was soft, yet it made Bai Yanliang’s heart clench.

He suddenly stood up.

"Qi Nian!"

Bai Yanliang clutched his heart, looking around hastily, as frantic as a lost amnesiac patient.

So much pain...

So much pain...

His heart felt as if something had gripped it tightly, it hurt so bad he couldn’t breathe.

Where are you...

Where are you?

Come out already...

Bai Yanliang always knew that Qi Nian was dying.

Because he had just seen, with his own eyes, the alarming fragments of flesh in the blood at the corner of Qi Nian’s mouth.

Her organs... had been utterly crushed by the ghost.

Bai Yanliang didn’t know how she endured such intense pain, still looking at him with a smile.

He only knew, that she was still alive at this moment, as long as she was alive, with a breath left when leaving this world, she could be saved.

But Bai Yanliang selectively forgot... a person whose organs have been crushed cannot possibly live this long.

Qi Nian had already been entangled by some curse, she was becoming some sort of abnormal existence...

Bai Yanliang blankly looked at the rain outside the window, slowly easing his hand pressing on his chest.

He felt it.

Right now, he was very certain he had regained an emotion.

That emotion was called sadness.

...

"...Roar!"

Two savage and fierce ghosts lunged, one after another, towards Xu Zhifei and Song Que.

The two made no resistance.

Even Xu Zhifei did not take out the key, one thing Bai Yanliang never knew, was that even if the key was used in the past world, it would have no effect.

It seemed from the start, it was meant for human conflict and self-destruction.

Yet at this moment, something unexpected happened to the two of them.

Suddenly, their vision blurred eerily!

The two terrifying fierce ghosts vanished into thin air!

Song Que didn’t even feel the pain of his hand being pierced anymore, staring in amazement at the now serene dining room, "What is this?"

Then, he looked questioningly at Xu Zhifei.

Could it be this mysterious woman’s doing?

However, the silent Xu Zhifei’s eyes were filled with confusion too.

Why... did the two ghosts vanish into thin air?

At this moment, a terrifying roar suddenly came from beneath!

"They’re in the basement!"

Song Que immediately realized the direction.

Basement? Why the basement?

Could it be!

Xu Zhifei’s expression changed slightly, immediately running towards the basement entrance.

Song Que hurriedly followed her.

They hadn’t run more than a few steps before meeting Bai Yanliang who rushed out from the hall.

"Bai Yanliang!"

Song Que immediately called out.

Bai Yanliang looked up slightly at the two of them before rushing towards the basement entrance.

He heard it...

It was Qi Nian.

Taking advantage of her remaining consciousness, she used some unspeakable power to lock those two fierce ghosts behind the metal door...

It had to be her...

All three realized something, hastily running towards the basement entrance.

However...

After turning the corner, what should have been the entrance to the basement turned into a solid wall.

"Qi Nian!"

Bai Yanliang pounded on the wall, calling out Qi Nian’s name.

This call confirmed Song Que and Xu Zhifei’s speculation.

It was indeed Qi Nian who saved them just now...

Bai Yanliang kept striking the wall, his fists already bleeding, but he did not stop.

This wall, which shouldn’t exist, separated Qi Nian and them into two worlds.

She was trapped alone behind that metal door, accompanied by ghosts.

Was she afraid?

Was she lonely?

Was she... still herself...

Bai Yanliang leaned exhaustedly against the wall, sliding down to sit.

He finally felt a foreign, yet inherently human emotion.

Song Que and Xu Zhifei stood beside Bai Yanliang, remaining silent.

Soon, their vision suddenly blurred, and when they came back to their senses, they were already standing outside the door.

Behind them... was the pouring rain.
