"I know what I need to do!"
Xia Xiaoyu looked seriously at Zifeng. Despite feeling scared inside, she tried her best to suppress her fear and raised her head to look firmly into his eyes.
"Outside your University, in that abandoned Ancient Tower, in Room 5 on the third floor, I placed a Mirror. At Midnight, you need to look into the Mirror and keep watching until she arrives. But don’t run away, and don’t be scared. You must endure the fear; otherwise, I won’t be able to reach you when she disappears. Even so, you are still in great danger. If you leave this city, you might escape, but she will still find you because the last person she wants to kill is you! She will keep searching for you, so the path is yours to choose!"
Zifeng didn’t know if Xia Xiaoyu was the last one, but from what she said about seeing her last self in the Mirror that day and the last words spoken by her final self in the dormitory, he sensed the deathly aura swirling around Xia Xiaoyu's forehead. He knew her true calamity had arrived!
Whether they could evade it depended on these next two days!
Xia Xiaoyu noticed Zifeng’s serious expression and suddenly understood that tonight, she had to lure her out; this matter had to come to an end.
But could she really draw her out?
Xia Xiaoyu clenched her fists, feeling nervous inside. Indeed, going outside to the University at Midnight was completely different from before; previously, she had been constantly fleeing, but now she needed to draw her out.
Xia Xiaoyu believed that after experiencing so many terrifying events, she was not afraid of death but rather of the helplessness inherent in being human. In that moment, many beautiful things surged through her mind. Everyone fears death but cannot escape it. However, Xia Xiaoyu thought of many things now that were not about death.
"In that Room, I have placed restrictions. She appears through the Mirror each time. As long as there is a Mirror, she can manifest because her true form is within the Mirror. Even if she comes out, it won't be for long. You just need to hold her back; I will come as quickly as possible!"
Zifeng felt a bit anxious too. He knew this matter was more complicated than he had imagined. But now it was a crucial moment; there was no extra path left. To truly help Xia Xiaoyu now wasn’t about uncovering the entire truth but finding a way to eliminate her...
"If she doesn't come, do you have any other way to draw her out?"
Seeing the uncertainty on Zifeng's face, Xia Xiaoyu hesitated for a moment before asking.
"She will come, she definitely will. The fact that she even tried to attack you during the day shows that she's anxious. So tonight, we will give her this opportunity. As long as we're in the Room, even though she's cunning, she won't pass up this chance. She will come."
Zifeng spoke these words with certainty because the death energy surrounding Xia Xiaoyu's brow was thick and had reached its limit. Moreover, if these two days passed, the death energy would dissipate, and Xia Xiaoyu's opportunity would arrive. After all, no one could be unlucky forever.
This was an opportunity; as long as they provided her with this chance in the shadows, Zifeng believed she would definitely appear.
"Tonight at midnight?"
Xia Xiaoyu asked softly, her tone revealing a tremor that showed her inner turmoil. Facing such matters, who could remain calm?
"Yes, I can sense your location. Don't worry; as long as she doesn't take action, if you can hold her back, we have a good chance."
Zifeng's voice remained cold and steady.
"Okay..."
Xia Xiaoyu nodded after a moment of silence. She knew she had to face this matter eventually; it was impossible to hide forever. Besides, this situation was brought upon herself; she didn't blame anyone, especially not Zifeng. After all, this matter wasn't originally related to her. Even though her profession was spirit exorcism, she had no obligation or reason to ask for his help. She felt satisfied that he was willing to assist her. Moreover, if it weren't for him, she might have already faced disaster indirectly.
"You should go back and get some sleep. She's very skilled in illusion magic and can create Illusions. If you're not in good spirits, it's easy to fall into her trap. You must stay alert and not give her any opportunity to exploit. And this matter is not that simple; if you want to give up, I won't stop you."
Zifeng suddenly became very talkative; he used to be quite indifferent, but now, all of a sudden, he had so much to say. However, Xia Xiaoyu felt a slight warmth in her heart. She knew he was concerned about her.
"You also said that this matter is not that simple. I want to give up, but she won't let me go. So why can't I take the initiative to find out the truth? Therefore, I won't give up."
Xia Xiaoyu spoke firmly. It wasn't that she wasn't afraid; she just wanted to actively find out the reason behind everything so she could live her life peacefully.
"Okay, fine. I still need to prepare some things. You should get some sleep."
Zifeng didn't say much more; he simply said this calmly before turning and walking downstairs.
"Thank you..."
Xia Xiaoyu looked at his retreating figure and hesitated for a moment before she couldn't help but say it out loud.
Zifeng's footsteps noticeably paused, but he didn't turn around; instead, he continued down the stairs.
