The second step of the Samsara Secret Art has already been activated. They're forcing me to run.

The moment that thought flashed through my mind, Yue Ting's eyes erupted with killing intent, and her finger instantly pressed the trigger.

The muzzle flashed, and the bullet flew past my scalp, burying itself in the wall.

After the first shot, Yue Ting suddenly turned the gun on her own chest.

If she pulled the trigger a second time, the people rushing in from outside would likely see me in the act of "breaking out and killing."

Then I'd be in even deeper trouble!

Were the people from the Reincarnation Department forcing me to flee?

Almost without hesitation, I leaped from the chair and lunged across the table at Yue Ting.

At that point, it was too late to try and seize the gun; I could only aim a blow at her elbow.

Yue Ting's arm jerked upward under the force of my strike, and the bullet grazed her shoulder as it slammed into the wall.

I was stunned after saving Yue Ting.

Although I didn't know how to use a gun, I had trained in hidden weapons. I knew very well that, judging by the angle of Yue Ting's shot, there was no way she could have avoided that bullet.

Unless, she was lucky enough to have the bullet suddenly change direction.

No, it was Su Su!

She had boosted my luck!

She was trying to use luck to counteract the Samsara Secret Art.

Although the legendary Samsara Secret Art was said to be unbreakable, perhaps if my luck was strong enough, I could find a glimmer of hope in this deadly situation.

Yue Ting also regained her senses after firing the shot. "What was I..."

Yue Ting only managed to say three words before the gun fell from her hand in fright.

I said in a deep voice, "Pick up the gun and keep pointing it at me. Don't look outside. What's out there is dead."

Yue Ting subconsciously picked up the gun and pointed it at my head before turning her eyes to look outside the door.

The person at the door had vanished without a trace.

Yue Ting raised her gun. "Are you trying to trick me?"

I said in a deep voice, "Why did you want to kill me?"

Yue Ting also seemed to remember what had just happened, and her face couldn't help but pale. I quickly said, "I need you to trust me."

Yue Ting gripped the gun tightly. "How can I trust you? You saw Dong Tai Ran before he had his accident, and there are so many bodies around you that died from knife wounds..."

"I can't explain all that to you right now!" I stared intently into Yue Ting's eyes. "I have to leave immediately."

After a few seconds of eye contact, Yue Ting suddenly lowered her gun. "I'll get you out of here!"

Yue Ting's sudden change of attitude, deciding to help me escape, might have been an arrangement of the Samsara Secret Art, or it might have been Su Su's luck taking effect.

I had encountered my first deadly tribulation on the run back then.

I knew very well that the Samsara Secret Art had to force me to flee in order to arrange the next killing tribulation for me in another place, but I couldn't just sit here and wait for death.

If I didn't leave, the people from the Reincarnation Department would use other methods to force me to go.

At that time, I might end up implicating others.

When Yue Ting got up to open the door, I tried to circulate my true qi, only to find that my inner energy could no longer be mobilized.

The Samsara Secret Art had progressed further. My current state was no different from when I was on the run back then.

I had no magic tools on me, no internal force. The only thing I could rely on was my physical strength to escape.

I quickly walked behind Yue Ting and said, "Don't use the main entrance. Be careful someone sees you."

Yue Ting casually took a police uniform from the wall and tossed it to me. "Put this on. Cover your face."

I put on the uniform, lowered my hat, and followed Yue Ting into the backyard. Yue Ting opened a police car and said, "Get in!"

I couldn't help but gasp. The design of the police car was exactly the same as the ambulance I had boarded when I escaped back then.

The only difference was that I was sitting in the back of the vehicle at the time, and now I was sitting in the passenger seat.

Yue Ting asked, "Where do you want to go?"

I thought for a moment and said, "Let's find a safe place first. Just drive!"

Yue Ting started the car and sped onto the main road. Judging from the direction the car was traveling, it was clearly heading towards the suburbs.

It matched what happened back then again!

I soon saw a tunnel in the distance.

According to what happened back then, someone should be forcing us to jump out of the car on this road.

At this time, ghosts should appear in the car.

And I should be putting on a shroud at this time!

When I turned my head to look through the glass at the back of the car, two figures were already sitting across from each other in the back.

The two people also turned their heads at this moment and met my eyes.

At this moment, Yue Ting also noticed something was wrong. "What are you looking at back there? There's no one in the back."

"There are people in the back!" I said calmly, "Listen to me for a while. Do what I tell you to do. Otherwise, neither of us will survive. Got it?"

Yue Ting gently adjusted the rearview mirror. "Nonsense, who's in the back?"

I said in a deep voice, "Take a closer look. Keep your eyes on the rearview mirror and don't move!"

I had temporarily opened Yue Ting's heavenly eye at the restaurant. My magic should still be in effect.

If Yue Ting could see the ghosts in the back, I would still have a chance.

If she couldn't see anything at all, it would mean that I had completely fallen into the Samsara Secret Art and there was no escape.
