Chu Huai was startled and instinctively wanted to throw the soft thing in his hand. Fortunately, the little black cat was clever and hooked onto his clothes with its claws, tightly hanging onto him.
The two of them stared at each other, and before Chu Huai could even breathe a sigh of relief, there was a tearing sound. The cat had actually torn a hole in his clothes, exposing his jade-white skin.
Chu Huai: “…”
The little guy froze for a moment, realizing what it had done, and pretended to be dead, burying its head.
Chu Huai picked it up resignedly and scolded in a low voice: “I told you not to come down, but you not only came down but also tore my clothes. Is that proper?”
This little thing had helped him so much, and he didn’t want it to continue meddling. Although he was about 80 to 90 percent confident, he wasn’t as calm as he appeared on the surface, and didn’t want the little guy to continue risking his life with him.
He was afraid that it might accidentally sacrifice its life.
But now that it had come in, Chu Huai couldn’t just throw it back out. After all, they couldn’t afford to waste any more time.
He knocked the little black cat’s head like a little chicken pecking at rice.
The flashlight’s stark white light shone on the village chief’s face, his head hit the ground first like a coconut, with juice and brain matter splattering and flowing.
His body was pressing down on two white bones, obviously belonging to Lao Zhao and his son.
Chu Huai didn’t rush in. He first went over to check the village chief’s breathing. The narrow and dark tunnel was blocked from view, so he had to make sure that the village chief was completely dead and wouldn’t pose any hidden danger to himself.
The burial chamber in the tomb was excavated over thirty years ago, and now the soil and rocks had collapsed and accumulated, making it difficult to walk.
After confirming the death, Chu Huai slowly walked in. The sunlight outside the theft hole was still shining in before, but now it was really dark, making it hard to breathe.
He soon arrived at the side chamber where the village chief said the accompanying burial goods were placed.
Chu Huai shone the flashlight around and found that there was nothing in the chamber. Little Guanyin had traded her generous accompanying burial for the opportunity to see the light of day again.
Little Guanyin’s coffin was next door.
Chu Huai pursed his lips and quietly touched the dagger and night pearl he carried with him.
The night pearl was prepared for Little Guanyin, but as for the dagger…
Chu Huai lowered his eyes and smiled.
He also brought tools for sealing the coffin.
The Night Pearl seals the souls of the dead, preventing them from becoming lonely ghosts. Little Guanyin was originally trapped in a coffin, but her resentment was suppressed and blocked by the Night Pearl, so she couldn’t leave the tomb to do evil.
Since she was released by the village chief to do mischief, he just needs to put the Night Pearl back into Little Guanyin’s mouth and seal the coffin to end the curse.
Chu Huaiqing was grateful that Song Qing had made the decisive decision to cut open the baby. Once the fierce soul of Little Guanyin truly merged with Song Qing’s body, his current actions would be in vain.
If Song Qing turned into Little Guanyin, they could only passively choose the worst option – to run and hide.
But now, he still had the initiative and could explore the tomb, and even return early.
Of course, the steps were simple, but it was not an easy task to execute.
Little Guanyin would not let him achieve his goal easily.
As he stepped into the main hall and saw the black coffin, a bone-chilling cold wind blew from somewhere in the tomb.
The black coffin was embedded on a high platform, and the coffin lid was not tightly closed, with large and small iron nails scattered on the ground.
The little black cat stuck close to Chu Huaiqing’s chest. He locked his gaze on the coffin and gradually approached, looking down at the coffin.
We’re sorry for MTLers or people who like using reading mode, but our translations keep getting stolen by aggregators so we’re going to bring back the copy protection. If you need to MTL please retype the gibberish parts.
Inside the coffin lay a beautiful young woman with a moon-like appearance. Her face was rosy, her skin was delicate and shiny as if she was just sleeping.

The little black cat anxiously meowed, and Little Guanyin mechanically twisted her neck to look at it, with a strange smile on her face.
Chu Huaiqing, however, did not move, lazily standing in place.
He even took two steps forward, with his hand resting on the edge of the coffin, and smiled: “Sister, let’s be honest.”
Chu Huaiqing raised his head slightly, revealing his vulnerable neck, and was extremely pleased: “Come on.”
If Little Guanyin had the ability to hurt people, they would not have survived until now.
As he was about to speak, suddenly a wave of confusion swept over him. When he regained his senses, Little Guanyin was still lying quietly in the coffin.
“I knew it was just an illusion. Who was I trying to scare?” Chu Huaiqing muttered to himself.
He pried open Little Guanyin’s mouth, put the Night Pearl back in, and the process went smoothly.
As he picked up the nails to seal the coffin, Chu Huaiqing was amazed. Did he really overthink things?
After a dull ten minutes, the little black cat crouched on the coffin board, paying attention to his surroundings. Chu Huaiqing was about to hammer the last nail in and complete the task when he heard Little Guanyin’s sharp voice again.
“What are you still hesitating for?!”
“You promised me!”
“You’re breaking your promise!”
Who is she talking to…?
The movement in Chu Huai’s hands suddenly stopped, and he hung his head in silence.
After a long time, his eyes suddenly became fierce, his face shrouded in shadow, and he sneered: “What’s the rush? It’s useless!”
Little Guanyin immediately lost her momentum and said: “My lord…”
The little black cat cried out anxiously.
The thick black aura on Chu Huai’s face lingered between his eyebrows, his eyes as black as ink, and he looked lifeless and gloomy. His handsome face had a hint of vampire-like mystery and allure.
“‘Chu Huai’ laughed and played with the nail in his hand: “The feeling of hope being within reach, but forever destroyed, must be wonderful.”
“What about the World Arbitration?” “‘Chu Huai’ sneered, hatred swirling in his eyes.
He had been entangling Chu Huai for twenty-four years, and he was about to achieve his goal of destroying his soul and body and occupying his body to be reborn. However, the world dragged Chu Huai into it and used the copy to arbitrate. But so what? The outcome would not change in the slightest.
“Brother, you have to stay here forever.” He paused and looked at the cat instead of attacking Chu Huai.
The cat looked at him coldly, and its gray-blue eyes were full of humanity.
“‘Chu Huai’ squatted down and beckoned to it, sneering: “Locked in a cat’s body and can’t come out, right? Can’t save him, right?”
“Were you helping him suppress me before? Let me guess,” “‘Chu Huai’ laughed: “You’re a ‘guardian’ who can enter exclusive copies?”
“‘Chu Huai’ praised: “You’re the first one who dares to enter the exclusive copy as a guardian… Willing to lose all your abilities, aren’t you afraid of dying inside?”
“You’re wrong,” “‘Chu Huai’ laughed: “You don’t die, you only forget and reincarnate.”
His expression suddenly turned fierce and ferocious: “Then I’ll send you to reincarnation!”
Jin Tianyi pounced on him and wanted to bite him, but when he thought of Chu Huai’s body, he couldn’t bear to do it. He had anticipated that something was wrong with Chu Huai’s body and followed him down, but he did not expect that the evil creature would be so powerful.
In an instant, Chu Huai’s slender and white jade-like hand had pinched his delicate neck.
Jin Tianyi was pressed against the wall, his oxygen gradually being cut off, and the suffocation became stronger and stronger.
His lover’s face was close at hand, but it was hideous and terrifying, and the malice was extreme.
Once he didn’t fear death, because death did not mean disappearing from the world for him, it was just a boring reincarnation.
But once he had attachments, the pain of separation became unbearable.
He didn’t want to forget, and he certainly didn’t want Chu Huai to die.
He had one last resort.
“You want to sacrifice yourself?” “Chu Huai” felt his change and was completely surprised.
In the Blood Moon instance, the civilian faction had the sacrifice skill, which could exchange their own sacrifice for the survival of their companions. Jin Tianyi understood the essence of it the most because Guardians… also had this ability.
“Is he worth you dying for him?”
“If you die, I still have plenty of opportunities to kill him in future instances… You’re not worth the loss.”
“Chu Huai” shook his head and laughed: “Why bother with such nonsense?”
He was about to strike, but the strength in his hand suddenly loosened, and Chu Huai’s expression began to change.
A glimmer of light appeared in Jin Tianyi’s eyes.
Chu Huai finally regained control of his body, and in an instant, using a dagger he had prepared early on… he fiercely stabbed himself.
Blood gushed out.
Ghosts can only possess and act through humans, and Chu Huai knew this from the time when Liu Han’s brother possessed Liu Han.
After Liu Han’s brother possessed him, he did not exhibit any special abilities, only increased strength. So as long as he was seriously injured, the ghost in his body would naturally be limited by his physical body and ability to harm others.
That dagger had always been prepared for himself.
So he didn’t let Liu Han come down, he wasn’t sure if he would accidentally hurt him.
Since entering the instance, Chu Huai had never stopped thinking about what the special conditions of the instance were.
With the events that had occurred, he compared and determined that the special condition was the name of the instance – Twins.
Zhou Yuan had a brother, and when he mentioned his brother, there was a flash of disdain in his eyes. There must have been a grudge between them, and if Zhou Yuan had not been killed by Sun Jiamu, he would probably have had a hard time escaping the clutches of his vengeful twin brother.
Song Qing had a conjoined twin sister who died due to surgery. She had a great relationship with Song Qing and did not hold a grudge against her, but she also entered the world because of karma and fulfilled the special conditions. So at the moment when Song Qing was supposed to die, Song Jing came out to save her.
Sun Jiamu also had a twin brother, whether older or younger was unclear, but it was obvious that Sun Jiamu drowned his twin brother. After Chu Huai learned this, he could use it to his advantage and ultimately led Sun Jiamu to the riverbank, using the hand of Sun Jiamu’s twin brother to kill Sun Jiamu.
As for Liu Han, he didn’t need to say anything more. Chu Huai had witnessed his brother’s possession with his own eyes.
All of this pointed to one clue – he also had a twin brother.
As Liu Han said, perhaps he did something to him unknowingly, directly causing his death.
In life, there are information asymmetries and deliberate concealment everywhere. Rather than believing perpetually one-sided information, Chu Huaining prefers to believe in his own practical reasoning.
This answer is absurd, but it is closest to the truth.
Naturally, he thought of the ghost that parasitized him.
It has been quiet lately, but that doesn’t mean it has disappeared. Perhaps it was suppressed heavily because of Jin Tianyi, so like Little Guanyin, it chose to lie dormant and wait for the right moment to strike.
It’s now.
Chu Huai just didn’t expect that when the ghost possessed him, he would have no resistance and would instantly succumb.
If it weren’t… Chu Huai looked at the cat struggling to crawl towards him in the corner, tilted his head slightly, and his eyes were a bit red.
He’d rather not have heard it.
He almost killed him.
Another “himself” was still shouting in his mind, and Chu Huai’s head was splitting with a headache as he struggled with him.
Chu Huai calmed down, and with a flash of inspiration in his mind, he used a dagger to cut ten fingers, completely taking control of his body’s initiative. He then struggled to climb up, holding onto the wound, and finally bent down and grabbed the last nail on the ground.
He stumbled back to the coffin.
Jin Tianyi watched him from behind.
Chu Huai took a deep breath, pain swept over him, and the feeling of fainting rose. He lifted his hand and stuffed the nail into the hole, then decisively used his fist to punch the final nail in.
Finally, it’s over.
After doing all this, Chu Huai leaned on the coffin, waved to the cat that had been with him for six days, and smiled.
In Liu Han’s mind, a line of bloody words suddenly appeared.
[Congratulations to all surviving taskers, thanks to tasker Chu Huai, Little Guanyin has been sealed, and the exclusive replica Twins ended ahead of schedule.]
[Human greed is endless, and the seal on ghosts and monsters can only be temporary. Little Guanyin falls asleep again, waiting for the next opportunity to reappear in the world.]
[Perfect achievement of the twin replica.]
At the moment the replica ended, Jin Tianyi changed back.
His clothes were disheveled and he looked miserable, but his beauty couldn’t be hidden.
Jin Tianyi got up and walked towards Chu Huai, who was weak and gasping for breath against the coffin.
Chu Huai closed his eyes, his face pale and his hands covered in blood.
Jin Tianyi’s heart ached.
The wounds wouldn’t heal automatically until they returned to the bus or apartment after the replica ended, but there was no possibility of death for the taskers.
Jin Tianyi opened his arms and lifted Chu Huai up. Chu Huai didn’t move, and Jin Tianyi thought he had fainted from the pain.
But he didn’t notice Chu Huai’s long eyelashes trembling slightly, and his eyelids moving.
Chu Huai quietly opened one eye, and when he saw that Jin Tianyi wasn’t paying attention, he opened the other eye.
Then, taking advantage of Jin Tianyi’s unpreparedness, he grabbed his neck and kissed him fiercely.
Wow!!!!! Power bottom!!!
Thank you for your translation 💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝
How did he cut all ten fingers? He held the knife to cut those on one hand, what about the other? Did he use his teeth to hold the blade….?
Late reply, he didn’t actually cut his fingers deeply, I think he pricked his finger like he did for Liu Han, something to let the blood out and suppress evil spirits.
Ohh so it was the parasite that was considered a twin. I thought it was mc’s crossdressing self that checked him in. That ghost onew ml’s role and this world huh OwO
Awwww! What an ending to the chapter!
There’s a thing that was subconsciously bothering me, but I only realized it now, because I’m used to reading MTL and guessing the meaning. The gaming term is “instance”, not “replica”. I don’t know how many chapters have that (all of them?).
Thank you for your translation.
