Chapter 191: Grab Your Fate

“Headmistress!”

All the big ghosts and students in the school saw Yan Xizhi. At the ruined school, the old lady stood at the edge of the shadow world. The students infected by Fear Illness were moved by something, and they all turned to Yan Xizhi.

The school had become a ruin. All the buildings collapsed. The students came down with illnesses. They were scared, crying to leave this place, the sanctuary that had once brought so much warmth to the orphans and abandoned children of Han Hai.

When did it become like this? Who hurt my children?

The rain washed away the dirt. The old lady tried to straighten her back. Nothing could beat her down. Her eyes shone like stars. They glowed in the murky night.

“Don’t be scared of life. Don’t be afraid of living. I am here. I will accompany you. Be it the lightness road or the shadowy underground, I will never leave you. That is the thing I promised you when you joined the school.” With each of her words, Yan Xizhi’s body became blurrier. The shadow world was eating her. It was unwilling to let her go. “Han De Shu Xiang Academy is more than a school. Situ An will never understand that. For these children, this is their childhood and their first memory. It contains their wish for home and pure kindness.”

The old headmistress had a very special power. Normally, she would go to class in the hall and help cleanse the student’s souls. She didn’t need to actively use her power. She would radiate calmness wherever she was. Even the heavily-traumatised big dog liked to stay by her side.

Situ An, who was behind the red raincoat, had his face twisted. Whenever he saw Yan Xizhi, it was like he was looking at a mirror. This mirror showed his ugliness and dirtiness.

“I don’t understand what you mean. I know that the goodness you constructed doesn’t exist. This world is very simple. If you feel happy, someone is in pain. If you are relaxed, someone is under duress. Envy, jealousy and comparison. As long as there is malice in a single person’s heart, humanity will never achieve true goodness.” Situ An hated Yan Xizhi the most. He had many ways to kill her, but he could never change her soul.

“You’re right.” Yan Xizhi walked through the rain. If she couldn’t move, the human bricks would automatically move to pave the way for her.

“Did you agree with me?” Situ An was shocked. He was as shocked as when he saw the fleshy tree in the hall.

“Yes, because I see it now. I can’t bring goodness to everyone. I only need to believe in goodness in people.” Yan Xizhi’s power had nothing to do with murder, but she wanted to kill someone at that moment.josei

Seeing the resonance between Yan Xizhi and the human bricks, as well as sensing her killing intention, Situ An put down his hands that covered his wounds. He started to cackle. “You’re doing the thing that you refuse to do the most. You have chosen murder like I do! Yan Xizhi, you’ve finally approved of me!”

The old lady didn’t speak. After both the school rules and Situ An’s rules collapsed, the human bricks that formed the foundation of the school and some of the students sided with the old lady. Her words contained special powers. Even if all the resentment rooms were destroyed and the death realm collapsed, as long as she was there, Han De Private School would continue to exist.

Small threads floated out of the human bricks that were dragged out of the shadows by Yan Xizhi. They were the children’s fate. All the fate threads circled around the old headmistress. Her words and actions changed. She would accomplish anything she set out to do. Situ An narrowed his eyes at Yan Xizhi. He knew Han Hai could cultivate a very special kind of ghost. They could create their own rules and use an invisible thing that did not exist to manipulate people’s death. Han Hai’s normal ghosts were weaker than the ghosts of the other cities. However, once they took that step, they would undergo a qualitative change. If Han Hai were a giant horror game, the ghosts that came out of Han Hai in the end would become the rule-makers of this game. Each of them had the power to influence the future.

“I’ve done so many things, and this old coot snatches everything away from me in the end? Is this the script fate has written for me?” Situ An laughed even harder. “I have to escape from this horrible fate!”

The red raincoat felt the threat. The blood rain was weakening. In fact, even the sky and the night seemed to have dimmed.

Other than Yan Xizhi, no one at the school dared to challenge the perfect Red Spectre. Only she and the students by her side walked towards the red raincoat. The school had collapsed, but all the students’ fates were focused on Yan Xizhi. The indescribable and non-existent force was silently influencing everyone.

The red raincoat knew that something was wrong. The blood fluttered weakly in the wind. The blood seeped underground to be absorbed by the shadow world. She was targeted by everything in this city. Her existence was a mistake.

The shining red eyes targeted Yan Xizhi. The red raincoat only had revenge in her eyes. Red Spectres represented extreme emotions and obsessions. The basis of their existence was their unwillingness to let go. Death couldn’t make them leave. Time couldn’t heal their wounds. They were born to resist their fates.

The red heart pounded. Even if she were abandoned by the world, she would be fearless. That was the Red Spectre.

“So beautiful.” No one would have thought the first to attack the Red Spectre would be Xia Yang. He painted the red raincoat fearlessly on the art teacher’s body. He wanted to use the painting to embrace the red raincoat, to listen to her heart.

Teacher Xia was consumed by desire. The red raincoat appeared on the art teacher’s skin. As she tried to cut off the art teacher’s skin, the threads of fate bound around the art teacher and the red raincoat. Both of them were tricked by fate. The red raincoat weakened, and the presence of the art teacher flickered unevenly.

Even while weakened, the red raincoat easily tore apart the art teacher’s chest and tossed away the piece of skin that had her face.

“Your every move is so perfect. To be killed by you is a blessing. I will paint you in my soul.” Xia Yang’s voice was going crazy. He hadn’t had so much fun in so long already. The red raincoat attacked the art teacher. Situ An quickly followed her. He had to stay around her to be safe. Situ An was already very fast, but Gao Ming was faster. A giant dog jumped out of Situ An’s shadow.

Situ An turned back and saw a human face inside the dog’s jaws. He would never forget the expression on that face. Just seeing it made his skin crawl.

“Gao Ming?”

Blood oozed out of the eyes. Gao Ming carried all the death memories in his heart and jumped at Situ An!

He strangled Situ An’s neck like a beast. The real sensations from his fingers made Gao Ming feel like he had cut through the river of time and grasped his fate for the first time!
