Chapter 99: Night Visit

Upon hearing Xiaomans words, Li Huowang scoffed coldly. He knew what the Eighteenth Lunar was and had already guessed as to what had happened. The people here mustve had their identities stolen, just like him, and the culprit behind all of it was none other than the Eighteenth Lunar.

The village was made entirely by the Eighteenth Lunar itself. Everyone in the village had just been acting out the roles laid out for them for such a long time without any of them knowing it themselves.

Since it had been controlling so many people at once, it was most likely using them for its own benefit. Rather than saying that it liked playing house, it was more likely that the Eighteenth Lunar was a being that consumed the names and identities of others as food.

So theres no village at all! Li Huowang said.

The moment he thought about the Eighteenth Lunar, all his muscles tensed up as he looked at Xiaoman nervously. Wait! The eyes! Where are the eyes of the Eighteenth Lunar?

Those eyes were the entire reason they had come all the way here.

We found them right beside you. Is this what you were looking for? As if Xiaoman knew what he was going to ask about, she whipped out a black box the size of her palm.

Li Huowang quickly opened the box and saw two red eyes staring at him. They were the eyes of the Eighteenth Lunar.

I have finally obtained them. Now, I will finally be able to get rid of Dan Yangzi. Li Huowang was ecstatic. He no longer needed to fear getting possessed by Dan Yangzi.

Once he had dealt with Dan Yangzi, he would finally be able to think about finding a way to deal with his hallucination issues.

Kachak. <

/em>

He closed the box and placed it on the head of his bed. What about the others? Are they fine? Tell me everything that happened after you found me in detail.

Based on Xiaomans explanation, Li Huowang learnt that after he was trapped in his hallucination, the Eighteenth Lunar thought that it had managed to kill him and was just about to kill the rest as well; however, at that moment, a faceless man barged in and disrupted its plans by shouting that Li Huowang was a fake. Then, he called for Bai Lingmiao and the rest to attack the fake Li Huowang.

Hearing this, Li Huowang understood that the faceless man was the him who had lost his name and identity. In his hallucination, he had been standing in the middle of the road and shouting at a red car.

Immediately afterward, the body of the fake Senior Li fell apart, leaving behind only its skin on the ground. The faceless man was somehow able to sense where the Eighteenth Lunar was and ran after it. Meanwhile, when we started chasing it, the bamboo forest around us suddenly moved and blocked us. That was how we lost track of the faceless man, explained Xiaoman.

By the time Xiaoman finished her explanation, Bai Lingmiao walked in with another bowl of chicken soup, this time around with some oily chicken meat inside it.

On the other hand, when everyone else heard that their Senior Li had woken up, they all came to visit him. They were all extremely excited and asked whether he was alright.

When he saw that all of them were alive and well, Li Huowang felt a wave of relief wash over his heart. It was fortunate that none of them had died.

After talking for a bit, Li Huowang was still holding the bowl of soup in his hand when he said, Since Ive woken up, lets not wait anymore. We will head back tomorrow.

But his suggestion was met with unanimous resistance.

Aiya, Senior Li, even your intestines fell out. Why are you in such a rush? You should just finish healing up before we head back, said one of them.

Yeah, didnt you already find the thing that you needed? asked another.

Lets rest for a few days, Senior Li. None of us is in a rush, so why are you? asked another.

Li Huowang gently pressed his wound as he got up. Its fine. I can just sit in the carrouch.
