Chapter 30

In a short moment, Leng Yue's body was adorned with several more deep wounds that revealed bone, and his pale face was covered in large, cold sweat beads.

It could be said that Leng Yue was entirely relying on the thread of hope that Xia Tianqi had passed to him, struggling to hold on.

But how long could this difficult support last? For both him and Xia Tianqi, it was a big question, because perhaps in the next second, they would be killed one after another by the Red-Clothed Ghost.

"Damn it! Where the hell is the exit!"

Seeing that Leng Yue was already at the end of his strength, Xia Tianqi, who was desperately searching for the exit without success, became increasingly anxious.

To put it bluntly, the pressure was now all on him, as Leng Yue was already doing his best to resist the Red-Clothed Ghost to buy him time. If he couldn't find the exit soon, Leng Yue would likely be killed, and then he himself would certainly be dead as well.

Cold sweat, mixed with a chill, continuously slid down Xia Tianqi's cheeks. Not far from him, Leng Yue was once again thrown away by the Red-Clothed Ghost due to his lack of strength.

"I found it!"

At the critical moment when Leng Yue was in mortal danger, Xia Tianqi finally found an exit that he could pass through.

Clearly, this exit was the door to leave this "bathroom."

In fact, Xia Tianqi quickly verified this, as when he successfully passed through the exit, the appearance of the bathroom hall instantly changed, revealing its true form.

This place was not the fourth-floor bathroom, but... the eighth-floor corridor!

They had been on the eighth floor all along!

The illusion was dispelled, and Xia Tianqi anxiously waited at the stairwell, shouting to Leng Yue, who was still struggling with the Red-Clothed Ghost:

"Quick! Get away from it and come over here!"

Even without Xia Tianqi's reminder, Leng Yue knew what he should do. How could he not want to break free from the Red-Clothed Ghost and escape? But unfortunately, he was truly powerless, not only having exhausted his magic power but also his physical strength, and the "laser sword" in his hand had dimmed to the point of being almost invisible.

"Escape on your own..."

Turning his head, Leng Yue replied to Xia Tianqi in a hoarse voice, filled with the intention of farewell.

Clearly, he felt he had no way to escape.

Hearing this, Xia Tianqi felt a surge of sadness and shouted at him again:

"What the hell are you saying? Quickly find a way to get that ghost out of the way, don't just wait to die!"

Xia Tianqi was so anxious for Leng Yue that he was jumping around. Although he was not a warm-hearted person, he was someone who knew how to repay kindness. It was unrealistic for him to rush over to fight the Red-Clothed Ghost to save Leng Yue, but it was also not his style to leave Leng Yue behind and escape alone.

"Are you even a man? A man doesn't say he can't do it, even if he really can't, he should hold on a bit longer! Don't let me think you're a complete fake!"

It was unclear whether Xia Tianqi's words had an effect on Leng Yue, but at that moment, Leng Yue put something in his mouth, and suddenly a strong light burst from his body, as dazzling as a flashbang.

The Red-Clothed Ghost was very wary of this light, so it could only reluctantly retreat to the side. Leng Yue seized this moment to struggle to his feet and roll toward the stairwell where Xia Tianqi was.

Seeing that Leng Yue had successfully escaped from the Red-Clothed Ghost, Xia Tianqi's heart, which had been on edge, was slightly relieved. However, before he could catch his breath, his heart was once again in his throat.

Because at that moment, Leng Yue... fainted due to exhaustion.

"Damn you! You're a real pain in the ass! We're even now!"

Seeing Leng Yue lying motionless on the ground like a dead body, although Xia Tianqi cursed loudly, he still bravely rushed to Leng Yue's side, picked him up, and fled toward the stairwell.

At the same time, the Red-Clothed Ghost, having recovered from the effects of the light, roared and chased after Xia Tianqi.

Fortunately, the stairwell was just a short distance away, so in a moment, Xia Tianqi had already fled down the stairs with Leng Yue on his back.

However, escaping down the stairs did not mean the threat from the Red-Clothed Ghost was over, as it followed them down and continued to pursue them closely.

"Damn your great-grandmother for eighteen generations! If you keep chasing me, I guarantee that in your next life, and the one after that, and the one after that, you'll be born without an anus! And your son will look like an anus, and his name will be Anus!"

Xia Tianqi kept cursing the Red-Clothed Ghost, because whether he wanted to believe it or not, they would eventually be caught by the Red-Clothed Ghost. The Red-Clothed Ghost's speed was no slower than his, and he was carrying Leng Yue, which made it impossible for him to maintain his speed for long.

So he felt that the only way he could retaliate against the Red-Clothed Ghost was by cursing it.

As for the Red-Clothed Ghost, it seemed to not understand what Xia Tianqi was saying, and it was getting closer and closer.

"Am I going to die?"

Xia Tianqi was already somewhat desperate.

But at that moment, he suddenly heard a weak voice in his ear:

"Stop at the next floor, I have a way to temporarily seal it..."

"You're awake? That's just in time!"

Leng Yue's awakening was like a snowfall in a time of need for Xia Tianqi. Stimulated by this pleasant surprise, Xia Tianqi's speed down the stairs increased.

At the same time, a weak voice from behind him echoed:

"East, South, West, North!

Four Directions Spell, Soul Spell.

Trap!"

As Leng Yue's last word "Trap" fell, Xia Tianqi felt a tremendous force descend upon his back, and he let out a惨叫 as he was brutally pressed to the ground.

"Ah...!"

Xia Tianqi felt as if his back was about to break, but despite this, he did not dare to stop and quickly got up, gritting his teeth.

Looking up at the stairs, to his immense surprise, he saw a huge "ice block" on the stairs, and the Red-Clothed Ghost was struggling violently inside!

"Is it really trapped?"

Since he was unsure whether the Red-Clothed Ghost could break free, Xia Tianqi only considered this trapping to be temporary. He did not dare to hesitate, picked up Leng Yue, who had fallen unconscious again, and fled for his life.

While fleeing down the stairs, he clearly heard the sound of the ice block cracking.

"Brother? Cold God? Are you still alive? Don't faint now, you're making things difficult for me!"

Xia Tianqi fled for his life while loudly calling out to Leng Yue, but this time, Leng Yue did not wake up.

Realizing that fleeing like this was not a solution, as the dormitory building's entrance and exit had long been sealed, and his physical strength was almost at its limit, Xia Tianqi suddenly had an idea and stopped, then ran to the stairwell on the other side and went back up.

His behavior confirmed the old saying: the more dangerous a place is, the safer it is.
