The next dream looked very simple. A humble small playground appeared in front of everyone. The sandy ground was sort of flat but it was bare without any sports facilities.
According to the pre-arranged roles, Mrs. Hong stepped out and shouted the instruction to the others, “Line up!”
The rest of the group lined up in a hurry. Lin Kun stood on the very left and Li Mu was in the far-right naturally.
“Shout out the number!”
“One! Two! Three! Four! Five! Six!”
When Li Mu shouted out “six”, everyone put up their ears and listened carefully. They didn’t hear anyone take over.
Mrs. Hong stared hard at Li Mu’s right side. It was empty and nothing was there.
Everyone felt relieved and they thought this challenge would be easy to pass. Mrs. Hong looked relieved, too. When she was about to announce the dissolution, she heard someone say, “Seven!”
The voice was very hoarse, like a dying man shouting with all his strength. There was struggling in depression and unwilling in anger!
All of them were startled. Li Mu looked to his right subconsciously, but didn’t see anything. Lin Wan who was standing at his left, also looked over there, and didn’t find anything, either.
Lin Wan made a gesture to Mrs. Hong, who shook her head and hinted that she didn’t find anything.
Mrs. Hong calmed her mind and cleared her throat softly. She said to the group, “I didn’t hear clearly. Let’s do it again! Shout your number out!”
“One! Two! Three! Four! Five! Six!”
“Seven!”
The voices followed each other quickly this time. The sound from the right came almost at the same time when Li Mu said “six”.
“Who is there? Come out!” Li Mu could not help but ask.
No one answered him. Li Mu made an inspection and then asked Lin Wan, “Honey, did you hear that clearly?”
Lin Wan was startled. She looked into his eyes and said, “You...”
“Silly girl, I’m not asleep. I’m awake!”
Lin Wan gasped and said with curiosity, “How can you stay awake in your dream?”
“I don’t know. Anyway, I’m not confused at all. Come here. Don’t be shy. Speak out your view if you have one!”
The group discussed for a long time but didn’t come up with any results. He Xiaoyu suggested, “Li Mu, please change your position with Lin Kun. Make yourself the first and let Lin Kun be the last of the line. And we try this again.”
This could be a good idea. Everyone acted as planned. Li Mu and Lin Kun changed their positions.
“Shout out the number!” Mrs. Hong shouted.
“One!” Li Mu shouted aloud.
Silence fell down in the playground. He Xiaoyu who stood beside him on the right could not say the “two” out. It seemed like her throat was caught by someone. Her face went all red from suffocation.
Then a hoarse voice came out between them.
“Two!”
With a sudden cry, He Xiaoyu hugged Li Mu at once.
Li Mu shouted out in fear too, “Who is there? Stop your tricks and come out if you have balls.”
Mrs. Hong rushed over and circled around them. She asked He Xiaoyu, “Xiaoyu, how did you feel just now? Why didn’t you call out?”
“Someone was choking my neck. I could not speak!”
Everyone felt a bit chilled at their backs. Choked by someone and couldn’t shout out. It meant there was an extra person on the playground. An invisible person they couldn’t see.
“Shall we change the positions for another try?” Li Mu suggested nervously.
The group tried several times and the results were the same. The one next to Li Mu was choked by the neck and could not shout out. The voice next to Li Mu was always the hoarse one.
No one could figure out the reason or knew how to deal with it. They all had no idea.
Mrs. Hong smiled and said, “It seems that we underestimated the unique skills of the Shen Family. They spared us before because they respected the two sisters. But now there are only two challenges left and they started to show their real power.”
Speaking of this, he looked at Lin Wan and Lin Kun seemingly unintentionally. They grew up together and were so familiar with each other that they immediately knew Mrs. Hong’s hint. So they all secretly paid attention to her next hint.
Mrs. Hong stared hard at Li Mu and said, “Li Mu, Zhou Zijian is back.”
“Who?”
“Zhou Zijian, your good friend. You have not seen each other for long. He is back for you.”
“Is he? Where is he?”
“Right here!”
“Here? Why can’t I see?”
“Do it!” Mrs. Hong called out, then Lin Wan and Lin Kun rushed over at once and attacked Li Mu together.
The three of them sieged him and started their attack without mercy.
He Xiaoyu shouted in surprise, “Are you crazy? Why are you attacking him?”
Shen Zixing and her sister didn’t agree and they rushed up to fight with them at once. Mrs. Hong shouted out, “Zixing, Ming’er, your brother was seized by the fatal energy. Both of you, please guard Xiaoyu and don’t let him merge with Xiaoyu.”
The two sisters were surprised and hesitated. Lin Wan shouted out the instruction, “Both of you, please do as Mrs. Hong said. He is not my husband at all. You can’t help him.”
He Xiaoyu tried to double-check. She asked Li Mu, “Li Mu, what’s my father’s name?”
“Brat!” Li Mu laughed chillily, “I am you father! Ha-ha!”
He Xiaoyu stepped back at once and she said in the meantime, “You’re not Li Mu. You are the Corpse of Death!”
Shen Zixing and her sister realized it too. They stepped back with her and guarded her.
Li Mu taunted, “This is my territory and none of you could run away. Come here, little girl. Merge with me. We will be reborn by using this fool and we will be one person in the future. You are me and I am you. We are both male and female! Ha-ha!”
He Xiaoyu trembled with fear and felt numb all over. She couldn’t help but get a layer of goosebumps.
Li Mu continued to bewitch her, “Little girl, we were one from the beginning. Hurry up and awaken and you will have endless power here. Kill those two brats and come to help!”
He Xiaoyu couldn’t help scolding, “Bullsh*t! You have no one here. You pile of rotten bones! I will never merge with you.”
Li Mu is surprised whilst fighting against those three at the same time, “What’s wrong? Why haven’t you awakened?”
Mrs. Hong laughed at him, “Forget about it. Our Xiaoyu has got super strong spirit power and has internalized your Bone of Death. You can’t use fatal energy on her. “
Li Mu knew that Mrs. Hong wasn’t lying and was angered by the result. So it turned out that the plan of completing integrating the Bone of Death couldn’t be implemented. Even if he took over the bast**d’s body, his own power would be sacrificed quite a lot too.
He started moving even faster as he was angered and those three struggled all of a sudden. After all this was Li Mu’s zone and it was in the dream where their true power couldn’t be activated completely. They were just about even earlier and now they were losing slowly.
Lin Wan cried for help in panic, “Zixing and Ming’er, come here!”
The two sisters moved over immediately upon the big sister’s command with shovels in their hands. Li Mu was now surrounded by five people and was at disadvantage at once.
The two sisters seemed to be immune to this special environment as their movements were as fast as lightning. Within seconds, they managed to leave many scars on Li Mu.
Li Mu cried out loud out of rage. He got kicked by Madam Lin on his hamstring and his knee lost support to the body. Shen Zixing seized the opportunity as she turned around by fiercely cutting towards Li Mu with the shovel. Without a loud cracking sound, a big head flew out horizontally.
The three from the Lin Family all had the same thought that these sisters were merciless.
The scenarios around started to distort and they came back to the valley again.
Little Brother Li rose from the ground and touched his head. Thankfully, it was still there. He then scolded Shen Zixing, “You crazy brat! Are you addicted to chopping me?”
Shen Zixing backed off hiding behind Lin Wan and tried to defend herself, “It was the big sister’s command. Not my fault!”
Lin Wan moved over to help Li Mu up and said to him, “Don’t be upset. She was trying to kill the demon, not you. If he’s not killed, you’d be substituted by him and become a monster which is neither a human nor a ghost.”
Li Mu’s heart was still fluttering with fear, “What happened? Why did the fatal energy enter my body? How come Xiaoyu was fine?”
“Because bones in legs and arms have got the strongest fatal energy and self-awareness. Also as your spirit power is much weaker than Xiaoyu’s, it’s not surprising that your body got attacked by the fatal energy in this special environment.”
Mrs. Hong explained on the side.
“After all the result is not too bad. It was a fault on the right side for Li Mu. The problem was completely solved with this opportunity.”
Li Mu let out a gentle hiss and touched his neck subconsciously again. Lin Wan laughed, “Stop touching it. Your head is perfectly fine.”
Shen Zixing moved closer and said, “Brother Mu, if you are pissed off, just punch me. Don’t worry at all. I won’t move.”
“Great!” Li Mu grinned, “Ming’er, come over too. Let me show you some love and care.”
Li Mu held the sisters and pinched them on their faces, noses and ears.
While they were playing together, Mrs. Hong dragged Lin Wan aside and asked her in a low voice, “Did you see it?”
“What should I see?” Lin Wan was puzzled.
“Something is wrong with the two sisters!” Mrs. Hong whispered.
“What are you talking about? What kind of problems can they have?”
“They are demons reincarnated, ruthless and merciless. Give them enough time and they will grow with great power. Lin Wan, we have to be prepared in advance.”
“Hmm. It feels strange that they are not affected by the dream. Now that you remind me, I understand it. Yup, they are definitely demons reincarnated.”
“Just take them in please!”
“What?”
“Lin Wan, they will become really strong. If they can’t be killed, then you should take them in. We can’t let them become the enemy of the Lin family.”
“I...”
“If you take them in, they will be so grateful to you and follow your lead, going forward like your arms. We cannot and dare not give up such great assistance.”
