The black-clothed apostle cursed, his tone filled with fear and a tremor.
He truly hadn't expected Duan Chen to go this far!
He was completely throwing his life away for a single truth!
"What you're doing... is completely worthless!"
He absolutely couldn't understand this person's thought process.
"Duan Chen..."
The others couldn't intervene in their struggle and could only watch from afar. Seeing the blood tears streaming from Duan Chen's eyes, they were all very worried.
In the waiting hall, Wu Suowei finally breathed a sigh of relief as he watched the situation with Duan Chen.
Duan Chen, well done.
And in Duan Chen's eyes, he had already found the truth.
He hadn't killed anyone, and that plane was indeed an illusion. The pulpy mess smeared on the cabin door was merely part of this apostle's chain of illusions.
One link after another, perfectly connected!
Attempting to drag Duan Chen into the abyss!
What they were currently in was a void within the waiting hall.
This apostle was completely playing mind games!
A victorious smile curved Duan Chen's lips.
"Guess which is the truth: me killing a person, or me killing the sea monster?"
"Of course, it's that you killed a person!"
The apostle sneered.
"You, this guy, are truly inferior to even Gu Sang..."
"What did you say? You say I'm inferior to that good-for-nothing?!"
This statement hit a sore spot for the apostle.
Duan Chen nodded and shared the scene in his mind, allowing everyone to see the truth.
"This is..."
"Damn it, playing tricks, I thought Duan Chen really killed someone."
Tian Qi breathed a sigh of relief. She had known Duan Chen for a while and understood his character. If Duan Chen had truly killed someone, he might never forgive himself and, in an extreme case, might even commit suicide to atone.
After all, he became a Spirit Hunter Agent to protect people and cleanse the world of the uncanny.
"This question is actually very simple."
"What?" The apostle was stunned.
"What I see is the truth!"
He absolutely had not killed anyone!
The white chess piece within Duan Chen emitted a brilliant radiance before the apostle, completely overshadowing the black chess piece's light within him!
It even purified the malevolent energy within the black chess piece!
"Damn it!"
His plan had failed, and the apostle's expression changed drastically. He could no longer linger. If he stayed any longer, he might attract the attention of someone.
No, he had to leave quickly!
"You lunatic! I won't bother with you today, we'll meet again!"
"Giving up already? Don't go."
Tu Feiyuan rolled his eyes.
With a blur of vision, they reappeared in the waiting hall, surrounded by people of all kinds, who occasionally cast curious glances at them.
"Master!"
Yan Qiuren handed over a few wet wipes, helping him clean the bloodstains on his face.
"Where's that flight attendant?"
"She's probably returned to where she was before falling into the illusion. We might have also fallen into the apostle's illusion here," Jia Yunlian sighed softly.
That guy was truly difficult to deal with. Even Duan Chen had to risk his life to break his illusionary techniques.
"Well done."
Wu Suowei appeared from somewhere, a slight smile on his face.
"What you see is reality. Don't overthink anything else; just act according to your heart. And I can tell you clearly, you didn't kill anyone, not a single one."
"You came too late?"
"Exactly."
Even the usually silent Hill nodded.
Wu Suowei chuckled, "Actually, I arrived long ago, but I didn't reveal myself. The illusionary technique used by that apostle needed Duan Chen to break it himself. Once you have the experience, you won't fall for it again. Of course, if that apostle had truly attacked Duan Chen, I wouldn't have stood by."
Tian Qi was about to say "At least you have a conscience," when Wu Suowei's next sentence almost made her faint with anger.
"After all, Duan Chen still owes me a million dollars."
"I'll give it to you when we get back."
Duan Chen smiled, his face regaining its usual brightness.
"By the way, that, was that a new apostle?"
Wu Suowei nodded, "Yes, he's unusual. Be careful when you deal with him. I'll only intervene at crucial moments. After all, this is a matter of your human world, and I can't interfere too much."
"Why did he call Hill Pandora just now? What did that mean?"
Duan Chen remembered this.
Wu Suowei didn't hide anything about this matter.
"It's because, in the distant past, Hill was one of them."
"How is that possible!" Tu Feiyuan exploded, leaping onto Wu Suowei's face and scratching him.
"Oh my, you little cat, you're not as cute as my little darling."
Wu Suowei grabbed him by the collar and handed him to Hill.
"What does that mean? I don't remember ever meeting them," Hill shook his head.
Wu Suowei smiled.
"That was a very, very long time ago. You don't need to think about it too much. Now, just follow your own will. Don't be deceived by the apostles. After all, Duan Chen already gave you the Priestess card, right?"
"Yes."
Hill looked at his wrist.
The card had disappeared from there.
"That's good. It's the same for all of you. This apostle is indeed not simple. If you choose to continue staying by Duan Chen's side, remember one thing."
"What?"
Wu Suowei's figure gradually faded, leaving only a sentence behind.
"What you see is reality."
"That's easy for him to say. We don't have the Eyes of Truth, so how can what we see be reality?"
"He didn't necessarily mean seeing with your eyes."
"If not with eyes, then with what?" Tian Qi was confused.
"With your heart."
On the other side, at the Spirit Hunter Guild in the capital.
"The paperwork is finally done. You Ran, let's go, Jun Ci is treating us to a meal."
Qin Nanyuan smiled slyly.
"You're eyeing my wallet again, aren't you?"
Jun Ci returned to his cold, unsmiling demeanor.
"No, you guys are finally back. This meal, let me treat you."
Qin Youran seemed to be in good spirits, a smile lighting up her face.
Although she always smiled, Qin Nanyuan could clearly tell that this smile contained other emotions.
"You Ran, what's making you so happy?"
She blinked, "Nothing."
Alright, Qin Nanyuan decided she must have misread it.
"Ah... when did you add the captain's contact information?" Qin Nanyuan glanced at her phone and jumped in surprise.
"Impressive, quite fast. But the captain does have quite a few women around him, You Ran, you need to be more attentive," Jun Ci said with feigned seriousness.
"What are you two thinking?"
The killing intent hidden in Qin Youran's smile instantly silenced them.
On the chat interface, Duan Chen sent her a message.
I know now, what reality truly is.
