The terrifying atmosphere in the room had now reached its peak.
Lin Jun forcefully swallowed his saliva, but resolutely stood in front of Yu Xin and her daughter.
However, no matter how he observed, he couldn't find the source of the ghost, and because he was the only one with abilities, he didn't dare go too far from Yu Xin and her daughter.
From the outside, the villa looked completely normal.
Through the window one could see Yu Xin now holding her daughter while sitting at the dining table feeding her, with Lin Jun chatting with Yu Xin in a distracted manner, his face still flushed.
But the scene inside the room was becoming more and more terrifying.
From the pot that was cooking, the sound of boiling water kept coming, and under the burning green flames, one could clearly see blood continuously gushing out from the pot.
It was as if there was an invisible person standing by the wall, continuously writing something.
Blood red words kept appearing on the wall.
"I miss you..."
"Miss you..."
"Won't you come see me?"
The words started out neat, but gradually became more and more irritable, as if the person writing was becoming more and more angry.
"I'm in great pain now!"
"Come accompany me!"
"Die!"
"Die!"
In the end, the only thing continuously appearing on the wall in fresh blood were the words "death", full of gloom and twisted features.
The cooking pot suddenly exploded. Yu Xin instinctively let out a cry, and quickly reacted by tightly closing her mouth and hugging her five year old daughter.
The girl's face was already covered in tears, her eyes full of fear, her body trembling nonstop.
After the pressure cooker exploded, countless blood splattered and stained the walls, blending with the words and continuously dripping down. As if by coincidence, the blood now looked like a face, numbly and emotionlessly looking at Yu Xin and her daughter.
Something seemed to have fallen out of the pot, continuously rolling on the floor, finally stopping at the daughter's feet.
It was actually a boiled human head.
Now the head's eyes were wide open, pupils bulging, its gaze meeting the daughter's.
Gradually, the corners of the head's mouth slowly curved into a smile.
"Ah!!!"
No matter how strong she was mentally, she was after all only five years old. At this moment she finally could not control the fear in her heart anymore, and started screaming, tears falling nonstop as she wailed loudly!
"It's daddy!"
"Daddy's back!"
The girl's cries grew louder and louder.
But Lin Jun's expression became even more solemn: "Sister-in-law, what you saw was Brother Liu?"
"Mm..."
Yu Xin hugged her daughter tightly, her body shaking uncontrollably from fear, and softly responded.
Lin Jun's brows furrowed deeply, and after a long while he heavily said: "What I saw was my mother!"
"This ghost seems to be able to reflect the person deepest in one's heart that they miss most."
Although he had only awakened his powers once, in Tian Group's records Lin Jun was still considered to have quite good potential, and had cooperated with veteran espers to handle two paranormal incidents, surviving them.
So even though he was also rather panicked inside, he kept analyzing the abilities of this ghost.
But now next to him there were still two ordinary people, which meant he absolutely did not dare act rashly, basically shackled in place here.
'Thud.'
'Thud thud.'
At this time, a somewhat muffled sound rang out.
Unlike knocking on a door, this sound was clearer in comparison.
Yu Xin subconsciously looked over, her already extremely pale face now filled with terror.
By now it was night, equally dark inside and outside the house.
In the moonlight, one could vaguely see a figure standing outside the window, stiffly stretching out a hand and lightly knocking on the glass.
And its emotionless eyes were fixedly staring at Yu Xin and her daughter.
Yu Xin, who had been barely keeping the fear in her heart at bay, finally broke down at this moment, screaming while holding her daughter.
"Parlor tricks!"
As an esper, his psychological endurance was still better than Yu Xin and her daughter's.
Disregarding the cold sweat dripping down his forehead, Lin Jun clenched his teeth, a faint light shining from his hand as he charged at the window and swung his fist.
The window shattered.
The bizarre figure disappeared.
And Lin Jun's hand was cut by the glass, blood flowing nonstop.
But what shocked him was that in just one second, the window bizarrely recovered to its original state. Only the flowing blood on his hand proved that everything before had really happened.
In the air, the atmosphere of terror at this moment reached its peak.
On the ceiling, a soft sound suddenly rang out, as if someone was walking, the creaking sound continuously coming.
Yu Xin subconsciously looked up.
A figure with its feet bound in rope suddenly hung upside down from above.
The rotten face of the figure was nearly touching Yu Xin's!
Yu Xin's eyes dilated as she directly fainted on the spot, but her hands were still tightly clutching her daughter.
But the scene her daughter saw seemed somewhat different. Her terrified gaze was fixedly staring into a corner not far away as she kept sobbing.
A sense of despair rose in Lin Jun's heart.
Perhaps...
He would fall here.
It was just that as an esper, being unable to even protect two ordinary people, his heart was filled with powerlessness.
At this time...
The room door suddenly made a loud bang, and in the next moment the tightly shut door smashed into pieces!
Through the moonlight one could vaguely see a figure standing upright at the door.
"A ghost that reflects what's in one's heart?"
"A rare breed, huh."
The figure indifferently said, then walked into the villa, his gaze falling on Lin Jun.
"Take this mother and daughter away first."
"You staying will affect me."
Lin Jun blankly looked at the figure and nodded in a daze. He hurriedly went to Yu Xin and her daughter, carrying the fainted Yu Xin on his back, then picked up the child and rushed to the door.
But...
Next moment, a figure suddenly appeared hanging from the beam over the door, eyes bulging out, bloodshot, glaring at him resentfully.
Lin Jun hesitated for an instant.
Wang Ye coldly snorted, swinging the wooden chair in his hand at the hanging corpse.
With a muffled thud, the corpse disappeared.
Lin Jun looked at Wang Ye in shock, firmly remembering his face. Carrying Yu Xin and her daughter, he swiftly left.
As the two departed, the shattered door silently recovered to normal and closed noiselessly.
In the still burning green flames of the kitchen, it was as if a pair of eyes stared fixedly at Wang Ye's back.

ive and Ruthless] Before his transmigration, Ye Xuan was playing a game called "Severing Emotions to Attain the Dao." The game's core wasn't about leveling up by fighting monsters, but about conquering various "bad women" with wicked personalities and cold, fickle natures. There was only one method to conquer them: stay unwaveringly by their side, then die at a critical moment, driving them to madness after losing the protagonist. The higher their level of regret, the higher the player's score. To dominate the server, Ye Xuan conquered all the bad women. In the early stages, he showered them with boundless tenderness, only to choose to sacrifice himself for them later, making them weep bitterly and drown in regret. Among them were: Xia Lengyue, the unfaithful immortal wife who chased after powerful men and discarded her husband like trash. Ye Qingcheng, the Demonic Venerable of the Joyous Union Sect, who appeared pure and innocent but was, in reality, promiscuous. Wu Lingxiao, the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, who lusted after men and loved maintaining a harem. Bai Qiangu of the Endless Demonic Sect: a bloodthirsty mass murderer. However, when the protagonist transmigrated into the game world, he made a horrifying discovery. Eight hundred years had already passed. The bad women he had conquered had now each become deities and revered ancestors. Faced with the endless stream of toxic women coming for him, Ye Xuan could only rely on his god-tier acting skills to carve a path of survival through this world of treacherous women.
