For the third time, we plunged into the darkness and Lin Feng's voice came, asking how should we go. I stood there, unmoving and thinking, until I finally decided. "Whatever direction would hardly matter now. We can take any direction and the result will be just the same." And before I waited for any response, I began walking aimlessly.

Before long, we saw once again the door lighted by two lanterns again, exactly the same as before.

But this time, I took out my cell. The time was three in the morning. We have been walking in the dark for more than two hours.

With a deep breath, I pushed the door and it swung open, revealing the same scene outside: the cold air, the dim street lamp and the creepy and quiet road outside. But I did not stow away my cell. In fact, I had been paying attention to the time when I walked through the door. Indeed! Just when we were outside, the door swung on its hinges on its own quietly and the time showing on my cell

    With that newfound discovery, I quickly unlocked my phone and looked for Father's phone number and tapped on it!Father sounded as if he was sleeping when he answered after the dial tone with unmistakable lethargy in his voice. "What time is it now, Father?" I asked first. A beat of silence ensued as Father checked his watch before he breathed into the mouthpiece. "One in the morning. What is it?"I quickly gave him a concise version of what was happening. Father remarked in a drowsy voice, "The Stone Sentinel Maze... That's easy. Just look for the weakness. Find it and destroy it." "I know! But I can't find it!" "Huh?! Then what good is your Spirit Sight for?!" Father scoffed impatiently from the other end, although his voice softened just as easily, "Use the Spirit Sight and look east." "But the directions in this enchanted space are all jumbled up. How am I supposed to know where's East?" "Up is North, Down is South, Left is West, and Right is East. Just

    I wrenched my cell phone and checked the time. It was only twenty minutes past one in the morning. Barely an hour had passed since we came over from Unit 105 opposite.Lin Feng was enraged to see the door with two lamps beside, having seen it one too many times when we were trapped in the pocket dimension of the Bamen Dunjia just now. He lifted his foot and stomped hard, only this time, the actual door adamantly refused to yield. With a furrowed eyebrow of mild interest, I walked to the door and twisted the knob. The door creaked open obediently and a chilly gust of night wind hit me face first, indicating my confirmation.I whirled around and smiled at Lin Feng, indicating it was time we went back. "You're sure we're out now? It's real now?" He croaked, gulping a mouthful of saliva. The experience of being trapped inside the magical domain of the Bamen Dunjia had clearly unsettled him. I chuckled and marched out the door, lifting my cell phone for him to s

    Lu Shengnan did not understand what we were up to. The looks on our faces must have left her thinking that we were intending something untoward and she looked absolutely afraid. She was, after all, a girl and she had just come out of the bathroom, wearing only a thin white shirt aside from the bra visible inside. She must be thinking that we were up to something no good. In fact, anyone would. Two men pouncing on you and tied you up and then stripping off your shoes. What else would one think?"Damn you, Murong Shiyan! You scoundrel! What do you want!?" Lu Shengnan screamed at the top of her voice. Ignoring her cries and howls, Lin Feng and I each held a leg and plucked off the slippers she was wearing. But we were both dumbfounded. The toes on her slender legs were normal; ten of them and each looking ordinary as ever.Shaking at our manhandling of her, Lu Shengnan continued howling her protests as Lin Feng and I shared a look. "You're sure about that lege

    CLANG! The house rang to the din of clashing steel. Lu Shengnan, who was earlier dumbstruck with surprise when I rushed upstairs, came up and rejoined us. She was just up the landing on the second story, just in time to see Lin Feng skipping back. His whip lunged forward from within his pouch to meet the woman's dagger that peeked with a cold gleam from her sleeves.With her face covered, her eyes, looking oddly similar to Huang Li and Cao Xuedong, reflected neither compassion nor remorse. The right sleeve of her clothing flapped emptily without a forearm, but the tiny dagger gleamed from inside, aiming straight for Lin Feng's throat.The tip of Lin Feng's whip came with intense force and fury. It snapped at the dagger thrusting at him and deflected it and Lin Feng immediately yanked at the whip, withdrawing it. The force sent the woman in black lurching from the force of her stroke being parried hard. But I knew better than to idle! Before she regained her

    We finally got Chongxi to wake up the next morning, not without any difficulty. He rubbed his eyes drowsily as he clambered up, looking at us with a sleepy and blank look. "What time is it? It is time to go?" "What go?! It's already morning!" Lin Feng bellowed, slapping the back of his friend's head.Chongxi spun around, his eyes blinking wide with confusion until he saw the bright, vibrant rays of sunlight coming through the window. He scrambled up quickly. "What happened yesterday, Shiyan? I was dreaming! I dreamt about us being trapped somewhere, and then..."I cast him an ugly look. "That was no dream," I uttered, "We were really trapped last night inside the pocket dimension of the Bamen Dunjia bounded field. Fortunately, we were able to get out, all thanks to you, otherwise, we would still be inside by now! Somehow in your sleep, you were able to cast the Windchaser magic!" "Ah?!" Chongxi gasped, hardly believing a word I said. "Good job. Just like th

    I lighted a cigarette. But deep inside, I was grimacing quietly. Huang Li looked utterly ignorant about the woman in black. I jabbed a finger at the black plastic bag on the floor. "That is the souvenir left by a mysterious guest who came calling last night after we solved the problem at your house. Don't you want it back?"Huang Li's face convulsed into a disdainful moue. "I don't know what you're talking about," she muttered firmly and that made Lin Feng and I looked at each other again. "Oh yeah," I went on, "That guest has a stare that resembled both you and Cao Xuedong. So I wondered if you might know each other." Looking rather pale now, Huang Li hissed, "I don't know who you're referring to. And what have you done to Xuedong!?"Huang Li's apparent ignorance rather bothered me but it did not prevent me from keeping up my smile. "Well, since you insist that you don't know our mysterious guest. I guess we'd better just leave it at that. As to Cao Xuedon

The look they exchanged would have been imperceptible if I had not been looking, but it seemed to me as if they were exchanging views telepathically for that fleeting second."So, you were having hallucinations when this Huang Li girl shook your hand?" Master Six breathed gravely and I nodded. "Not only Huang Li, but Cao Xuedong too," I answered, "Scenes and events I have never seen before and I understand nothing about them." Father took a draft of his cigarette and puffed a smoke ring before saying, "What did you see?""It was a strange and peculiar-looking man I saw when I took Huang Li's hand. Then I saw a bear-like man swinging a battle-ax at me. Then it was the scene of a battle. When I shook Cao Xuedong's hand, I saw a man with two eyes but four eyeballs. Then I was flying in the sky before a bolt of golden light hit me and that was t

    The Seven Ghostly Sisters had never met Master Six before. They immediately ducked behind me, immediately fearing him for what he was, an actual immortal whereas Xiao Qi and her sisters were mere ordinary ghosts sustained in human form through the use of magic. Master Six looked at Xiao Qi, his eye brows furrowing with interest. Then he looked as if he realized something as his head jerked sideways to face Father."Gods in Heaven, Murong Hai. Have you fallen so low?!" He glowered. Father only shrugged and muttered lackadaisically, "What is it to you? These girls met their deaths in the most pitiful way. Go below yourself and ask them. Do you think they are reserved any chance to reborn?" Master Six landed back in his sofa, seething beyond words yet he could find no valid reason to counter Father's.As ghosts of people who died tragic deaths, Xiao Qi and her sisters should have been escorted to the City of Innocent Deaths in the Underworld where they would r
