Chapter 12: The Man Who Referred You

This......!

Seeing this scene, it was not only black and white impermanence that was shocked, but even Jiang Yao himself was so shocked that he didn't know how to react, so he could only watch as the "self" below slowly raised his head and turned his blood-red eyes to everyone.

It wasn't a pair of "human" eyes.

At the moment when he met the gaze of those eyes, this thought flashed through Jiang Yao's consciousness in an instant. He knew very well what state he was in at this time, and seeing his body, which had become an "empty shell", was slowly getting up from the ground, this strange feeling suddenly made Jiang Yao very frightened, but at this moment his face changed greatly, he was not the only one, Jiang Yao soon found that the originally extremely calm black and white impermanence, after seeing the "self" on the ground open his eyes, he was also instantly like a great enemy.

"Oh no! put him back!" Bai Wuchang immediately made a judgment, turning his head and shouting at Hei Wuchang.

"Do you really want to let it go?" Black Impermanence was obviously a little hesitant.

"I can't care so much!" Bai Wuchang said and stretched out his hand, and the sound of chains resounded around again, and before Jiang Yao could come back to his senses, he found that the chains that wore his collarbone had disappeared, and then he fell straight down as if he was being pulled by a magnet, rushing towards his body that exuded anger.

"Poof! poofโ€”"

The thunderous heartbeat filled his ears, and after a short blank of consciousness, what Jiang Yao instantly felt was the blood rushing like boiling in his body, and the turbulent ocean of power that was about to get out of control.

"Hmm...... Ahhโ€”โ€”!!hh

Jiang Yao grabbed his chest and fell to the ground with a pale face, he felt as if his body and soul were about to be torn apart, and a roar of nothingness roared in the depths of his soul, and this pain was far beyond the similar scene he had experienced in the secret room of the villa, making him suddenly unable to survive or die.

The storm of power constantly stirred Jiang Yao's nerves, and his consciousness was like a lonely boat floating in the sea, going through ups and downs in chaos and sobriety, but in this chaotic storm, there always seemed to be a traction line to maintain Jiang Yao's consciousness, so that he would not fall into the abyss of chaos.

Gradually, the turbulent and disorderly power in the body began to slowly subside under the harmony of the traction line, and the roar in the depths of the soul gradually faded away, and with the dissipation of the anger around his body, Jiang Yao's consciousness gradually became clear, and the world returned to calm.

"Forehead......" Jiang Yao's eyes finally regained their clarity, and he was covered in cold sweat as if he had just experienced a catastrophe. He raised his head feebly and met the shocked look in the black and white impermanence.

"I didn't expect it...... He turned out to be ......"

Bai Wuchang stared at Jiang Yao deadly, and then as if he realized something, he moved his gaze to the red-haired man, and said solemnly: "You already knew?"

"Huh. The red-haired man smiled but said nothing.

"I know what you're thinking, but if you're really going to make a move on that thing, I'm afraid the entire Three Realms won't let you go. Bai Wuchang looked directly into the red-haired man's eyes and coldly dropped a warning.

"Don't worry, with my current situation, what can I do?" the red-haired man shrugged, his red pupils calmly looking back at Bai Wuchang, and said calmly. "However, since you already know about this kid's situation, you should also know what the consequences will be if you force him to hook his soul, right?"

"......" Bai Wuchang was silent for a moment, and then moved his gaze back to Jiang Yao with a blank face again.

"Hmph...... Even if we let you go this time, as long as the "Death Mark" is still there, you will always be under the control of Lord Hades, and you can escape for a while, but you can't escape for a lifetime, so you can do it yourself. โ€

As soon as the words fell, the black and white impermanence figure suddenly rippled, and then gradually faded back, and finally dissipated like a cloud of smoke.

That's it...... Let's go?

Looking at the figure of black and white impermanence resolutely leaving, Jiang Yao was a little unable to come back to his senses for a while, until a sarcastic voice sounded from his side.

"What, I can't bear them?"

Jiang Yao was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that there was another annoying guy who was here.

"Why are you here...... At this time, Jiang Yao didn't even have the strength to get angry, but he couldn't deny the fact that he was almost taken away by the ghost, but all this came and went too fast, and he didn't have time to digest the causes and consequences.

"Hey, is this the tone of the words spoken to the life-saving benefactor, who do you think rescued you from the villa that night?" Although the red-haired man was unforgiving, he still helped the weak Jiang Yao to the bed. "Unfortunately, I didn't catch the last person who attacked you that night. โ€

"Don't regret it, because people have already taken the initiative to find me. Jiang Yao smiled bitterly and briefly explained the previous distress in the Qiushui Group building. "Do you have a clue about the identity of that little girl?"

"Hmm...... Maybe...... No wonder those two guys are looking for ......" The red-haired man didn't answer directly, but muttered thoughtfully, but then changed his mind. "By the way, how did you come to the Qiushui Group?"

"Because of the 'Game of Death'...... Also, my missing roommate......"

Jiang Yao was a little hesitant, but now the man in front of him seemed to be the only person who could solve these mysteries, so Jiang Yao no longer concealed it, and informed the other party of Xiao Yuan's disappearance and erased existence.

"I'm afraid I can't explain the 'Game of Death' to you for the time being, but I may know some clues about your friend's disappearance. The red-haired man said.

"You know ......?" Jiang Yao grabbed the red-haired man's sleeve and shouted loudly. "Tell me, what the hell is going on?!"

"Hmm...... Well, this matter is quite complicated, and it may even drag you into deeper trouble, do you really want to wade into this troubled water?" the red-haired man glanced at Jiang Yao and said with a smile. "Speaking of which, you and that roommate named Xiao Yuan have only known each other for about a year, is it necessary to fight for him to this extent?"

"He's my friend. Jiang Yao stared at the red-haired man's eyes and said word by word. "When a friend who takes care of me every day and treats me genuinely asks me for help, how can I abandon it?"

"......" The red-haired man didn't speak, he looked at Jiang Yao's serious face, he didn't know what he was thinking, and after a while, he suddenly smiled.

"Hehe, okay...... I don't know where your friend is, but I know someone who probably does. โ€

"Who is it?"

"Someone who is annoying, but who can solve all your doubts. The red-haired man said meaningfully, pointing to the black mark on Jiang Yao's collarbone. "Not only can this person tell you Xiao Yuan's whereabouts, maybe there is a way to help you solve this "Death Mark". โ€

Jiang Yao was stunned for a moment, and then he remembered the previous words of black and white impermanence, and the doubts that bothered him were far more than Xiao Yuan.

Ten years ago...... They say I should have died 10 years ago, and then I came back, what happened to my body, and why did they suddenly give up arresting people?

"What exactly is the 'Death Mark', and why did it suddenly appear on my body after that night at the West End ......Villa?" Jiang Yao asked, looking up.

"Well...... Legend has it that those who should have run out of life but still survived will be dragged to hell by Hades with a "death mark". The red-haired man said, glancing at Jiang Yao's neck, intentionally or unintentionally. "And the reason why you didn't show the mark on your body before, maybe as they say it, there are some external factors that temporarily hide your life, but after the incident of that night in the villa, this external factor disappears, so the "death mark" is revealed. โ€

The "external factors" that hide the personality?

Jiang Yao thought about it, but he was still confused.

"Speaking of which...... If it weren't for the stone on your necklace in the villa that night, I'm afraid you planted it in the first place, what is the origin of that stone?" the red-haired man asked suddenly.

"Do you say 'electric light stone'? That is the self-defense weapon that my master gave me, but unfortunately it has been ......" Jiang Yao stroked the empty necklace around his neck, and his heart felt melancholy. "Speaking of which...... From now on, black and white impermanence they ...... Will they come back?"

"As long as this "death mark" is still there, it is possible. The red-haired man withdrew his gaze from Jiang Yao's necklace and replied.

"In other words, I could be taken to the underworld at any time?"

"Yes. โ€

โ€œโ€ฆโ€ฆโ€

Jiang Yao felt a headache, and he felt that this series of flying disasters seemed to befall him overnight, messing up his life. He looked down at the collarbone on the side of his head, and saw that the strange black mark was still there, reminding him that this was not a nightmare, but a naked reality.

"The guy you're talking about...... Where?" Jiang Yao finally made up his mind, and he raised his head to look at the red-haired man.

"It's not easy to meet him. The red-haired man smiled and said.

"You've got to come with me somewhere first. โ€

-----------------------

"You said you were going, ...... here?"

Jiang Yao leaned on crutches and looked away a little uncomfortably at the inquiring eyes of the young girls who walked out of the school gate, and after the eyes of those girls stopped for a short time on Jiang Yao's gauze-covered hands and feet, they all turned to the tall and handsome red-haired man beside Jiang Yao.

"yes, wait for someone. The red-haired man leaned lazily against the wall, seemingly without any embarrassment at all.

"But...... Is it necessary to block the entrance of the girls' middle school like this?" Jiang Yao glanced at the vigilant security guards at the school gate, feeling as if he was being taken for an idiot.

"No, no, it's hard to catch that guy...... Ouch, say Cao Cao Cao will arrive. โ€

The red-haired man's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly waved his hand at a figure that appeared at the school gate, and shouted loudly:

"Hey~Little Tooth~~ here and here!"

This time, not only Jiang Yao, but even the girls who were out of school around couldn't help but stop, and shot at the figure at the school gate in unison.

I saw that the figure was stunned suddenly, and it seemed that he was a little surprised by this sudden baptism of gaze, but he soon discovered the "culprit" that caused all this, so he could only sigh softly and walked over to Jiang Yao and the two helplessly.

The afterglow of the setting sun shone on the comer from afar, wrapping his body in a faint golden light, Jiang Yao squinted his eyes, trying to see the face of the comer, but he always felt that the other party's face was always shrouded in a layer of haze, obviously close at hand, but there was a sense of ethereal nothingness, and he couldn't leave any impression about his appearance in his mind.

Just when Jiang Yao was in a trance, the figure was already standing in front of him, Jiang Yao came back to his senses suddenly, and this time, he really saw the true appearance of the comer.

What a delicate face, skin as white as snow, eyes like stars, pale blonde hair dancing softly in the breeze, although it looks only seventeen or eighteen years old, but that kind of beauty can even be described as "breathtaking", far from those vulgar and pink actresses can be compared, and the other party's eyes seem to have a magical power, just one glance can no longer take off the gaze, as if the whole soul is about to be hooked into it, into the abyss.

Jiang Yao stared at the other party for a moment, but then realized his gaffe, he hurriedly closed his eyes to stabilize his mind, and when he looked at the visitor again, he found that the other party had moved his gaze to the red-haired man beside him.

"How many times have you said it, don't call me 'Little Tooth', it's hard to hear. The visitor stared at the red-haired man and opened his mouth angrily, and the voice ...... But it gave Jiang Yao a big gap.

Man...... Male!?

Jiang Yao was suddenly petrified, but he soon found that the other party was indeed wearing a men's shirt and trousers, not a school uniform like those female students, and his tall and standard posture directly showed that this person's gender was male, and it seemed that he was looking at the other party's appearance just now, but he ignored these other important details.

"Oh, then what do you want me to call you?" the red-haired man smiled even more happily as he looked at the other party's angry appearance.

The corner of the eye of ......the young man called "Little Tooth" by the red-haired man twitched, but in the end he held back and did not have a seizure, he crossed his arms and opened his mouth with a calm face. "What's the matter with me? I'm busy. โ€

"I'm looking for you to show the way. The red-haired man didn't talk nonsense, and made a request directly, pointing to Jiang Yao on the side by the way. "Take him back to the headquarters and look for the old man. โ€

"Oh, he's the one you call him...... I didn't expect you to find it. "Little Tooth" raised his eyebrows, and looked at Jiang Yao again, and the meaning between his eyebrows made Jiang Yao feel shocked.

"Hehe, under the influence of my illusion, he can still hold on for so long without losing his mind, it seems that his spiritual power is indeed very strong. "Little Tooth" smiled slightly, but Jiang Yao always felt that the other party's smile was more exploratory.

...... "illusion" he just said?

Jiang Yao remembered the "sense of nothingness" he felt when he first saw this person, and the breathtaking pressure when he saw the other person's eyes clearly, it seemed that all this was not his own illusion, but the spiritual influence exerted by the other party on him. Jiang Yao quietly glanced around, but saw that the girls who had not stopped paying attention to them before seemed to have lost their goal at this time, and left in a daze, completely ignoring the beautiful young man here.

"He's ...... "That person" who can answer all my doubts?" Jiang Yao asked the red-haired man quietly.

He's not, but he can lead us to "that person." The red-haired man laughed. "Although he is ostensibly a trainee teacher at this girls' high school, he has another identity. โ€

"Hello, first time we met, my name is Jiuya. The beautiful young man in front of him smiled and stretched out his hand to Jiang Yao.

"This time, I'll be your "introducer". โ€
