Chapter 357 Feng Bujue!

"Feng Bujue!"

At that moment, all five members of Order Squad One shouted this almost in unison.

Although they didn't know how Brother Jue had "come back to life," they all vaguely felt... that they had probably fallen for a trick.

While they were distracted by the strange changes happening to the Mirror Demon, Feng Bujue had quietly revived elsewhere and was playing the harmonica as quickly as possible.

Now, it was too late to stop him.

The Order members' brief distraction of a few seconds became a crucial turning point.

About five seconds later, the harmonica stopped, and Feng Bujue's figure turned into light and disappeared... At this point, his plan in this "Mirror Realm" could be considered a complete success.

Gui Xiao and the others didn't know where Brother Jue had teleported to, and they didn't need to think about it anymore.

What's done is done. All the five of them could do... was accept reality and adapt to the situation.

"Forget it, don't worry about Feng Bujue..." Wu Si Can Xuan truly lived up to his role as captain, and he calmed down immediately and gave instructions, "Yupi, Gui Xiao, listen and look quickly... Let's figure out the details of this monster first."

"I've already been listening," Sheng Yu Pian replied with a grim face.

"I've already been looking," Gui Xiao replied, his expression equally unpleasant.

The reason they looked like this was partly because Feng Bujue's escape frustrated them, and partly because...

"But..." Sheng Yu Pian quickly added, "After Feng Bujue's blood touched that monster, I couldn't 'hear' its voice anymore." He paused and added, "Now, what I hear from that monster... is the sound of my own body."

"Me too," Gui Xiao added a second later, "When I 'look' at the Mirror Demon, it's like looking in a mirror. All I see is my own data." His tone betrayed a rare hint of nervousness, "This has never happened before..."

"Heh..." The only one who could still laugh at this point was Meng Jing Chan, "In other words, this Liuhe Jingmo has blocked both of your detection abilities."

"Hey, hey~ What's so funny about that?" Sheng Yu Pian replied with narrowed eyes, "This is very bad..."

"Tch..." Gui Xiao spat, "In any case, we were undoubtedly set up by that Feng guy; from the very beginning, this guy planned to use his own blood and life to complete the evolution of the Liuhe Jingmo, which is why he acted so suicidal."

"Hmm..." Zui Wo Chang Ran heard this and immediately thought to himself, "In that case, the reason he rushed towards me just now... wasn't because he thought my side was weaker and he could break through, but because he had decided from the start to move towards the Mirror Demon's location."

"Eh? That's strange." On the other hand, when Gui Xiao finished speaking, Wu Si Can Xuan suddenly thought of something, and he immediately said to his teammates, "If Feng Bujue's plan was to use the Mirror Demon to eliminate us, then why didn't he try to inflict some losses on us during his 'suicide'?" He paused for half a second, "In a completely selfless situation, doing anything would have at least caused some damage to the person directly in front of him, right?"

"Ha!" Meng Jing Chan laughed loudly when he heard this, "Can Xuan, you've clearly misunderstood Brother Feng's intention..."

"Oh?" Wu Si Can Xuan looked doubtful and replied, "What intention?"

"Heh... do you still remember his first sentence?" Meng Jing Chan reminded him.

As soon as he said this, the expressions of his four teammates all changed.

"I think... with your strength, you should be able to nip this 'new god' in the bud."

Almost in the same instant, this sentence flashed through their minds.

"He..." Wu Si Can Xuan muttered thoughtfully, "He doesn't want the Mirror Demon to kill us, but wants us to kill the Mirror Demon?"

"That's right," Meng Jing Chan nodded in response.

"That doesn't seem right..." Sheng Yu Pian said, "If his goal is to eliminate the Mirror Demon, why go to the trouble of evolving it?"

"You'll have to ask him that yourself, I'm not a worm in his stomach." Meng Jing Chan spread his hands and made several guesses in a very casual tone, "Maybe he was planning to have us and the monster fight to the death, but felt that the monster itself wasn't strong enough, so he made this move; it's also possible... he intentionally wanted the monster to be killed in a 'fully evolved' state to achieve some purpose." He shrugged and shook his head, "But in any case, I personally feel... Feng Bujue isn't very concerned about the outcome of this battle; he can accept either side winning. Because... when he successfully created the current situation and escaped this space, we can no longer have any impact on the real 'big picture' in his mind."

"Ah~ The more I listen, the more annoyed I get!" Gui Xiao raised his hands and scratched the hair on his head back and forth, "No! I have to hit something to vent!" As he spoke, his gaze had already shifted to the Mirror Demon dozens of meters away.

But... half a second later, Gui Xiao's expression suddenly changed, and he suddenly took a step back in mid-air, moving away from the Mirror Demon.

"What's wrong?" His teammates didn't notice anything, but seeing Gui Xiao's reaction, they couldn't help but become vigilant.

"What was that just now..." Gui Xiao stared at the Mirror Demon with wide eyes, muttering to himself.

"That's your own murderous aura." At this moment, the Liuhe Jingmo finally spoke.

Its voice was both male and female, its tone was strange and desolate, and the words were coming from the mirror, sounding sometimes near and sometimes far... Just listening to it speak made people shudder.

"Heh..." As it spoke, it actually laughed, "Being scared away by your own murderous aura, is that interesting?"

"Bastard..." Gui Xiao was already angry, and being mocked by the Mirror Demon only added fuel to the fire, "Watch me smash you into glass shards..."

"Wait!" Just as Yi Mi Liu was about to step forward again, Chan Ge stopped him in front of him, preventing his rash advance.

"Heh heh..." After stopping Gui Xiao, Meng Jing Chan looked at the Mirror Demon with a smile, "This... Mirror Brother. We have no past grievances and no recent animosity with you, so there's no reason for us to fight to the death."

He only said half of his words, and his teammates understood his intention. Obviously... Chan Ge was going to try to resolve the problem diplomatically before taking action.

"How about we make a deal..." Meng Jing Chan continued, "You send us out of this space or give us a way out, and then we'll each go our own way and leave each other alone."

"Hmm..." Surprisingly, this Mirror Demon didn't seem to be the kind of unreasonable demon. After listening to this, it actually began to consider Chan Ge's proposal.

However, just as the members of Order Squad One thought that this battle might be avoided, an uninvited guest broke in... destroying their last hope.

"Ha—"

In that instant, a violent shout tore through space and time.

A lithe figure burst out of the void.

"Hahahaha..." Asura, who flew out of the data fault, laughed loudly, "I thought I'd never get out! I finally broke through!"

Coincidentally... the location where he appeared was directly in front of the Mirror Demon. As he spoke, he was already diving diagonally towards the Mirror Demon.

"What the hell is that?"

Everyone can imagine that Asura took the initiative to enter the data layer in a war with the Derivatives and rampaged through it for a long time... And when he finally regained his physical form, a thing that looked zero percent human and ten percent like a ghost, with a terrifying appearance and a chilling aura, suddenly appeared in front of him.

So, what would his first reaction be?

"Ah—"

Half a second later, Asura let out a panicked cry.

In that split second, he felt a rapidly rising hostility from the monster in front of him, and that hostility instantly turned into murderous intent.

It wasn't until later that Asura understood... that the hostility he felt at that time actually originated from himself; this "intention" reflected by the "mirror" in turn stimulated himself... Under the effect of this interaction, the murderous intent was rapidly generated.

Of course, Asura didn't know any of this at the moment, so his reaction was also very simple...

"You ugly monster! You're ambushing me, right? Who's afraid of who!" He threw a punch, and in his panic, he directly used the S-level skill, "Eat my Asura Supreme Phoenix Fist!"
