Don’t improvise. Thank you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This crumpled paper was something Wu Xian had specifically sought out before coming to “Perfect Hair Art”—this hairstyle suited him perfectly, and even with a malevolent barber, he didn’t want to let the man mess with his look at will.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The barber’s expression froze for a moment, then he began cutting Wu Xian’s hair with serious focus.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn’t even have scissors—his tool was a razor with a blade only ten centimeters long—but his technique was extremely professional, far surpassing ordinary barbers in the real world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Too bad Wu Xian had to keep his eyes locked on him at all times, preventing any careless attack, unable to relax and enjoy the experience.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many human “collectors” enjoy collecting bizarre crafts made from animals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The barber must have wanted to peel off Wu Xian’s face while he was still alive!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Speak. I’ll try my best to fulfill your wish.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I mean, I’m not afraid you’ll kill me—because after I die, I can join them…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The earlier test had made him realize: the man’s true form was inside the mirror; no matter what he did to the air outside, he couldn’t truly harm him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The barber’s hand stroked Wu Xian’s face, as if touching a work of art.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The barber thought Wu Xian’s face was beautiful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So he intended to peel it off and sew it onto his clothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He suddenly turned around.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Xian’s mind raced.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Xian quickly nodded: “Satisfied, very satisfied. I haven’t seen a barber as skilled as you in a long time.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The barber’s mindset.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kill?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Peel the skin!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why did you stop? Are you working so slowly?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the barber couldn’t read their emotions—he was instead startled by their expressions. To him, these four malevolent spirits were unhappy, protecting Wu Xian, and about to swarm and beat him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, but I want something else.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Death was humanity’s greatest fear, and the barber had never seen anyone so calm in the face of death.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So he licked his eyebrows with his tongue, his expression growing even more excited.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clothing…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had been waiting for this exact moment!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before the twisted shadow vanished, Wu Xian activated the Flying Blade Spell—the blades formed an X-shape, slicing toward the shadow’s location!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Oh shit!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To malevolent spirits, the more agonizing a human’s death, the more artistic it was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Do you know how much I love my family?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I just want to kill people cleanly!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only a few minutes passed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He gripped a syringe filled with black dog’s blood and thrust it hard backward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Xian switched into complaint mode.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In truth, he was no different from certain humans in the real world—it was hard to say who resembled whom more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The last time I came home too late, my entire family died violently—I missed their welcome…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He merely watched helplessly as the man pressed the sharp razor against the edge of his own face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But these compliments were mostly meant to avoid provoking the malevolent spirit, lest he casually slit Wu Xian’s throat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He quickly thought of a possible method—he prepared his Flying Blade Spell, ready to shatter the mirror, while forcing his face into a tender expression, a single tear rolling down his left eye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though a bit shameless, if any of you have friends who like suspense novels, feel free to recommend this book.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Xian’s eyes lit up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Got it!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But just as a beast might fear a sudden appearance of its own kind behind it, the barber was startled—these four malevolent spirits, in his eyes, were Wu Xian’s family. How could he possibly peel off a face in front of family?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This time I’m going to die too. I’m going to join them. I hope this time they’ll come to welcome me—so our family of five can truly be together.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Please leave more comments and cast more votes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because behind him there was nothing at all—and due to Wu Xian’s resistance, the man in the mirror pressed one hand firmly on his shoulder, preventing Wu Xian from making any large movements.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Ya, Xu Qingfeng, and the other three, upon seeing this, immediately frowned, their expressions turning grotesque and terrifying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Xian’s hairstyle had been completely transformed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To malevolent spirits, malevolent spirits weren’t that frightening.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the source animals of the crafts—elephants, tigers—bore legendary titles like “Tiger King” or “Elephant King,” the crafts would be even more coveted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Wu Xian had merely wanted to escape.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Xian saw that the barber had revealed his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The barber paused, puzzled, and asked Wu Xian: “What does that have to do with me?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Puff!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A crack shaped like an X instantly appeared on the ground—the twisted shadow was split into four pieces, its four body segments writhing and crawling before collapsing lifelessly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Your face is handsome. Could you give it to me? My clothing still lacks a beautiful face.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The barber appeared generous, but inwardly he had already decided: no matter what Wu Xian’s regret was, he would never let him fulfill it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Xian would become part of his clothing—he wanted Wu Xian to be as unique as possible, so he could boast more vividly to other malevolent spirits.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Xian temporarily set aside the idea of using the Flying Blade Spell.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No wonder she was so strange—her body was stitched together!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The barber could only manifest his form inside the mirror, so to move outside, he had to wear a “clothing” made of human parts—he selected the most beautiful fragments from each of his customers and assembled them into a perfect “outfit.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The barber leapt back in shock, hastily lifting the razor from Wu Xian’s face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Welcome you? Didn’t you say your whole family was wiped out?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was indeed satisfied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Xian sighed: “I’m almost dead, but I still have one unfulfilled regret.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Wu Xian missed!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t want to get involved in your family affairs. I’m leaving!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then using the Flying Blade Spell to smash the mirror directly might free him from the man’s grip—but that wouldn’t guarantee killing the malevolent spirit; he might still be hiding somewhere in another mirror.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The rarer the animal, the more expensive the craft—like ivory or tiger pelts…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside the mirror’s space, besides himself, there stood four malevolent spirits with horrific deaths: a woman with a split mouth, one with her abdomen torn open, another split in half…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The barber froze in horror.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Customer, are you satisfied with this hairstyle?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The giant mirror rippled like a calm lake struck by a stone—a twisted shadow emerged, crawling at high speed toward the previous stall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The barber lightly touched Wu Xian’s face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Xian feigned confusion and asked: “Didn’t you say you didn’t charge?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The barber nodded instinctively, then realized something was off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Writing suspense novels is hard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So Wu Xian didn’t act rashly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The barber’s tone turned dark and sinister: “Since you’re satisfied, please pay for the haircut.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So the previous “woman” had been this malevolent spirit’s clothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Xian’s attitude startled the barber slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The barber suddenly leapt outward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Xian countered: “Who said dead people can’t come to welcome you?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The figure began fading into nothingness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Xian smiled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His hair length hadn't changed, but his entire demeanor had improved—he could now work as a male host.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hehe, hehe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1263,"2026-06-20T14:31:06.102Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","ec55c1bd91aa2dc0d357ebfe9c97de8439a53160ba671b3bfd3948788355752c","heavenly-official-bestows-evil-chapter-64","heavenly-official-bestows-evil-chapter-62",556,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fheavenly-official-bestows-evil-cover.jpg"]
