Just as Yang Yan's words fell, the light above their heads began to flicker violently.
In the mont of dim light, a figure appeared in the exact spot where the bloody warning had just occurred before them.
And when the lights ca back on, the figure was gone again.
This repeated ceaselessly, creating a terrifying impression.
Witnessing the scene before her, Xia Bing felt her heart jump to her throat.
If not for Yang Yan being by her side, she might already have scread uncontrollably.
The lights kept flashing, and that figure continued to appear and disappear intermittently.
Suddenly, in the instant the lights went out, the figure vanished.
When the lights ca back on, the figure was already standing in front of Xia Bing.
Boom!
With a trendous noise, Xia Bing didn't even have ti to scream before the figure had already been kicked away by Yang Yan.
"Dare to release sothing of this level? How arrogant!"
Yang Yan slowly retracted his foot, saying disdainfully.
The figure that was kicked flew, began to wriggle on the ground, struggling to stand up.
Thump!
The ground trembled, and a deep pit suddenly appeared.
At so unknown point, Yang Yan appeared out of nowhere in front of the wriggling figure and struck a swift elbow down on the figure's head.
"I told you, don't bring out such trash, it's not even a challenge."
Yang Yan said calmly.
"Ah!"
A scream that tore through the ears rang out.
Yang Yan shivered suddenly; the owner of the voice could only be Xia Bing.
"My dear, that thing didn't even scare you, but you were still frightened so badly."
Yang Yan patted his chest, speaking with lingering fear.
"Sor... sorry. I was just too tense."
Xia Bing had also reacted by now, her face flushed as she explained awkwardly.
"Alright then, let's go! This was just an appetizer, the main course is still ahead! Try to be a little braver, nothing will happen with here."
"But if this can make you freeze in fear, what will happen when the main course arrives? I'd love to see our police officer make a fool of herself, but if it reaches Frost Heaven's ears, he'll definitely mock again."
Yang Yan said teasingly.
"There won't be a next ti."
Xia Bing bit her lip lightly, speaking seriously.
Glancing at the elevator that was making a sizzling sound, Yang Yan frowned and said:
"It seems the opponent doesn't want us to take the elevator up. Never mind, let's just take the stairs!"
After the scare just now, Xia Bing had seemingly beco much more courageous.
She was now actually walking in front of Yang Yan, holding a pistol.
Seeing her cautious manner, Yang Yan really didn't want to dampen her confidence by telling her that the gun was useless.
Since that toy could give her a bit of security, Yang Yan naturally let her be.
Looking at the pitch-dark staircase, Yang Yan smiled wryly.
The Sunshine Garden has thirty-three floors, and the accident happened on the eighteenth floor.
This ant they had to climb up eighteen floors.
He had no problem with that, but he wasn't sure if Xia Bing could hold up.
"What's wrong? Let's go!"
Xia Bing turned her head to look at the paused Yang Yan, speaking sowhat puzzled.
"Nothing, let's go!"
After that, Yang Yan continued to follow Xia Bing upwards.
The two of them kept climbing, and who knows how long they'd been walking. Although it was evident Xia Bing was exhausted, she still gritted her teeth and persevered.
Suddenly, Yang Yan stopped again, squinting his eyes as he said:
"Wait! Sothing's not right."
"What's wrong?"
When Xia Bing heard Yang Yan's words, she stopped imdiately.
"We've been circling the thirteenth floor all this ti."
Yang Yan said, frowning.
Hearing this, Xia Bing realized too.
Yes!
Even though the building wasn't short, they had been walking for quite so ti, and her legs were trembling. By now, they should have already reached their destination!
But now, no matter how they walked, they always seed just a little short.
"What should we do? Are we caught in a ghost wall?"
Xia Bing asked Yang Yan, a bit worried.
"You're half right. But this is more potent than a regular ghost wall. But don't worry, since we've discovered it, there's no problem now."
After saying that, Yang Yan pulled Xia Bing's hand and headed downstairs.
However, no matter how they walked, they kept circling the thirteenth floor.
"We're still on the thirteenth floor."
Xia Bing said, frowning.
"Interesting, so it's not just a simple ghost wall; space has been folded."
Yang Yan said with a smile, looking as if he had everything under control.
"At a ti like this, you still have the mood to smile; how do we get out?"
Xia Bing didn't notice Yang Yan's expression; she just looked around anxiously and said.
"Don't worry, after circling, I figured out the Rule here. It's actually simple to go up; however, if we want not to damage the building, it might require a bit more effort."
With that, Yang Yan reached out to take Xia Bing's hand again, then closed his eyes.
In Xia Bing's astonished eyes, his body began to slowly beco intangible, starting from his head and gradually spreading to his whole body.
Finally, even Xia Bing beca intangible.
At this mont, they seed like ghosts.
Although Xia Bing was nervous, she didn't know why, but being held like this by Yang Yan suddenly filled her with confidence.
What she minded was, Yang Yan had held her hand twice!
Until Yang Yan reopened his eyes, Xia Bing bit her lip, remaining silent.
"Alright, business first, I'll let you hold my hand for now!" Xia Bing thought to herself.
Yang Yan smiled gently at her, then took her hand and continued walking upstairs.
This ti, Xia Bing was surprised to find that when they reached the staircase's entrance, a phantom door appeared in front of them.
After stepping through, the view opened up, and there was a sign for the fourteenth floor.
Only then did Yang Yan gently release her arm, smiling as he said:
"Let's go! Now I'm getting more curious about what this thing really is. From the current signs, the other side seems to be in a very contradictory phase!"
"What do you an?"
Xia Bing didn't quite understand Yang Yan's words.
"How should I explain to you? Forget it! Let's go, I can't say it clearly now, once we get up there, everything will be clear when we et that guy."
After that, he led the way up the stairs.
The next few floors went smoothly, encountering no obstructions.
It seed that the other side had given up.
When they reached the eighteenth floor, Yang Yan stopped again.
He covered his nose with his hand, his eyes squinting.
