Ling Xiao waited for a while, and seeing that Wu Xie still did not react, he took out a syringe from his space. This was an anesthetic that he had bought for himself on the dark web.

He inserted the needle into Wu Xie's skin, watched the liquid flow into Wu Xie's body, then opened the bottle containing his own blood and dripped a drop onto Wu Xie's wound.

The needle prick healed instantly. Ling Xiao wiped away the bloodstain and did the same to Cheng Yu again. Ling Xiao then cleaned the cups the two of them were drinking from and adjusted Cheng Yu's position so that he looked as if he had fallen asleep naturally.

After doing all this, Ling Xiao carefully walked out of the room, closed the door, and disappeared into the night.

He ran as fast as he could toward the place where Chen Pi had led him in his memory; he had to go to the Floating Pagoda Palace, it was his only chance.

This was a plan he had made long before he lost his memory. He agreed to go to Guangxi for two reasons: first, to find something that could prolong his life, and second, to see if there were any corpse-eating pills.

Actually, he was supposed to find this in the underwater tomb, but he probably didn't have a better reason to go back, so he decided to see if the Floating Pagoda Palace would have it.

He could certainly bring the main characters down into the tomb, but that would be too troublesome, especially with Wu Xie in tow. The Futu Palace is already extremely dangerous, and Wu Xie's presence would only increase the difficulty. Moreover, if he took the Corpse-Eating Pill and was recognized by Xiao Ge, he wouldn't be able to explain himself. It would be better for him to go alone, to finish quickly, and without having to hide anything.

He had no means of transportation, so he just hoped that 07 could be delayed for a while... at least, not come back before Zhuangzhuang woke up.

"It seems like he's been leading us somewhere." Xie Yuhua and Xiao Ge had only been out for a short while when they encountered Hei Xiazi. According to Hei Xiazi, they had been circling around this area, and this 'fake Lingxiao' seemed to be waiting for someone.

Seeing that the group had appeared before them, the fake Lingxiao quickly ran away. Every time the group was about to catch up, the fake Lingxiao would suddenly disappear. When the group stopped, the fake Lingxiao would give himself away.

It was a very obvious way of enticing them, but the group had no choice but to follow along, and the more they followed, the angrier they became.

"Looks like we've fallen into a trap." Xie Yuhua stood there, hands on his hips, smiling helplessly as he realized what had happened.

"Anyway, there's no loss. Let's see what he's up to." Black Bear crossed his arms and smiled knowingly.

"To buy time," the young man replied from the side.

"I'm telling you, you're mute, a blind man isn't fat, a blind man has a brain." Does he not know this fake is stalling for time? How else can he trick the fake into coming out? Please cooperate with him, okay? It must be exhausting for him to act all by himself!

The young man ignored Hei Xiazi and instead said to Jieyuhua, "Go back."

Jieyuhua nodded, indicating that she had the same idea.

Seeing that the two of them had turned around and were walking back, Hei Xiazi changed his strategy and followed them back.

Sure enough, as soon as he saw them all heading back, the 'fake Lingxiao' couldn't sit still any longer and had to show himself to stop them.

"So you've finally decided to come out? Let the blind man see what kind of monster you are, who's learned to be human but is too ashamed to show his face!" Black Bear said as he attacked the 'fake Lingxiao'.

Meanwhile, the 'fake Ling Xiao', Real 07, reacted swiftly. Although a system, his combat prowess was considerable, but he couldn't easily attack the protagonist, especially Xie Yuhua. Besides modifying his program, Ling Xiao had also implanted a bomb in his chip; if he did anything against Ling Xiao's orders or harm him, he would be reduced to ashes…

He was afraid of death. He was afraid of death even before Ling Xiao captured him, and after being captured, especially after experiencing that fire, he became even more afraid.
