Chapter 291: Breaking the Stalemate! A Simple Hand Raise!

Ruan Ziliang was indeed a pawn he had arranged long ago.

He was in charge of spreading rumors, solidifying the odd object.

And the facts were just as he thought, the development proceeded relatively smoothly.

The errors that appeared midway were promptly remedied by Dong Ya and the dormitory overseer.

And it was already known that Ruan Ziliang is a descendant of Zhang Hong.

He just didn't expect that Su Yang could actually analyze the key factor from it.

He let Ruan Ziliang recreate the scene of Wei Zeming's suicide back then, opening the Eternal Night.

He also didn't expect that after Su Yang opened the final door, he still wanted to use it as a weapon!

Just a dead person.

What value does it have?

Just as Liao Chen was utterly perplexed, Su Yang said, "Children, the chief culprit that killed you is already dead; I cannot help you take revenge."

"I believe you are all kind-hearted; otherwise you wouldn't have stepped into the fire and rescued your classmates."

"In this hundred years, you have endured many criticisms and borne numerous insults."

"I know you can hear me; Wei Zeming's spirit in the heavens surely wishes you to be well."

"Now that you exist as undead, your hearts must hold countless grievances."

"What I say now is already too late, but I don't ask for your understanding, only that you extend a helping hand to fulfill Teacher Wei's wish."

Ha?

The three were stunned, looking at Su Yang's shaman‑like movements with incredulous expressions.

【1】9】 What is he doing?

What is he doing?

Communicating with the undead?

"What Nerve is he showing?" Tang Hui exclaimed, stunned.

I've seen people talk to themselves, but never anyone so delusional to this extent.

Su Yang's act was like begging the ancestors of the cemetery for protection.

To the few of them, it was rather incomprehensible.

"Has the Guizhou donkey run out of tricks at this level?" Liao Chen chuckled inwardly.

At this moment, Su Yang stood beside Ruan Ziliang's corpse and said, "He is a descendant of Zhang Hong; I have already taken care of him for you."

"Times have changed; those who must go will eventually leave, otherwise your relatives under Nine Springs cannot rest."

"If possible, also grant Teacher Wei liberation."

"He has been bound by obsession for a hundred years, and has protected you for a hundred years."

Upon hearing this, Tang Hui couldn't help but say with a strange expression, "You aren't losing your mind, are you?"

Indeed, Su Yang's actions were extremely odd and defied common sense.

As a human, he actually sought help from ghosts.

And the reason he gave was so laughable.

Liberation?

On what basis does he promise such a huge commitment?

Just based on a corpse?

It was rather both tragic and ridiculous.

However, Liao Chen beside him sensed something amiss.

"Wait, is there a person hidden inside the golden Buddha statue?" Liao Chen said, surprised.

"Yeah, you didn't know?" Tang Hui nodded.

"Why didn't you say it earlier?" Liao Chen's eyes widened, and his breathing suddenly became rapid.

"Is it that important?"

"Nonsense!"

Liao Chen, suddenly frantic, said, "He wants to use these ghosts to hunt for treasure!"

"His true goal is Hidden Achievement!"

What?!

Tang Hui was first stunned, about to retort, when a phantom head emerged from the ground.

A ghostly maiden tilted her head, examining Su Yang's face, her expression bearing a hint of curiosity and shyness.

Su Yang, seeing this, smiled gently, "Don't be afraid, I'm not a bad person; I'm here to help you."

In the next moment, several more heads sprouted like bamboo shoots after rain.

Among them were boys who had earlier deliberately scared Lai Siyiao.

They examined Ruan Ziliang's corpse, leaned in to sniff, sensed the bloodline of an enemy, and their eyes suddenly turned blood‑red.

"Kill... kill..."

"Yes, I will kill them for you," Su Yang nodded slightly.

"Liberation...?"

"The dead cannot be revived; you have lingered enough in the mortal world, it's time to depart," Su Yang said softly.

The ghosts showed a contemplative look, clearly pondering Su Yang's intent.

Although they have not been human for a long time, they have not lost their basic reasoning ability.

Seeing his words take effect, Su Yang seized the moment, saying, "If you have grievances, vent them on him."

"Whatever you do, it is right."

When those words were spoken, they stared intently at Su Yang, then slipped into the earth and disappeared.

Sight this scene, Qin Weiyang was deeply disheartened.

Su Yang furrowed his Brow, "Still can't manage it…"

He could only rely on persuasion to request help.

Relying only on his and Qin Weiyang's power, they hoped to find the Treasure on this vast land.

It's no different from searching for a needle in the Sea.

The best approach is to petition the ghosts, invoking Liberation to let their souls return home and be reborn.

Before that, Wei Zeming's lingering wish must be fulfilled.

He loved this school with all his heart, and loved his students.

He poured his fervent blood and youth into it.

All the countless injustices he endured were only to let his students have their wishes granted, step into a wider world, and advance toward their ideals.

Compared with the children who perished in the Fire Sea, Wei Zeming's decision to jump from a building was a helpless act.

He himself never imagined that his death would bring them a catastrophic disaster.

Perhaps guilt is at play, and the soul never receives Liberation.

With the aid of an Earthquake, the inner world formed an independent space.

Using his own power, he protected the children's departed souls.

He also performed repentance in the form of a 'Defying Grave'.

Now, Su Yang wants to resolve all this; he will achieve Clearance of the game in an unconventional way!

"If ghosts can hear you, that's truly seeing a ghost," Tang Hui said mockingly.

That move is no different from playing a lute to a cow.

Qin Weiyang walked to Su Yang's side and comforted, "It's okay, we'll think of another method."

Su Yang turned his head, Vision Perception her exquisite face, seeing the worry that surfaced, and reached out to rub her tightly furrowed Brow.

"Clearly you're also scared, yet you came to worry about me."

"We're partners, aren't we?" Qin Weiyang whispered.

"Yes…" Su Yang murmured, his eyes flashing with hope.

Pa—pa!

At that moment, a burst of applause rang out.

Tang Hui clapped enthusiastically, "What a splendid performance; I'm very pleased with your showing tonight."

"I want to keep watching, but unfortunately there's little time left."

Qin Weiyang glanced at the time, pressed her lower lip, "Take a gamble?"

"We have no choice but to gamble," Su Yang nodded slightly.

Yet at that instant, an illusory human Silhouette suddenly sprang out of the earth.

He extended his palm toward Su Yang, "Th‑thank… thank you…"

The sudden Transform made everyone present turn pale.

Especially Liao Chen, who stared at the ghost's actions in disbelief, his Brain instantly crashed.

"Is it real…"

Su Yang, after being stunned, recovered, reached out and shook his hand, "Just a simple gesture."

After speaking, the little boy waved his large hand and shouted, "All… come out…"

In the next instant, thousands of ghosts surged from the soil, lining up in orderly rows.

Su Yang gazed at the spectacular sight, utterly astonished.

"He… helps us… take revenge."

"We… help him… find someone."

"Also help Teacher Wei… Liberation."

After speaking, the ghosts instantly swooped toward the ceiling, their dense Silhouette resembling a disciplined army of bees.

Su Yang looked at each youthful face, feeling a tinge of bitterness, "Thank you."

The little boy, hearing that, turned his head, grinned, "No… you're welcome."

"Just a simple gesture."
