Chapter 201: The City of Lust
Everyone started walking toward the train, leaving Hei Jiji confused. She didn't understand why they didn't take the way out but returned to the dangerous Specter Train instead.
She was sure that the way out was behind the white portal because she had just used her ability to sense it.
She was certain she wasn't wrong. However, seeing everyone else go back to the Specter Train without hesitation made her doubt herself. She even began to question if her senses were off.
Unable to hold back, she asked Fang Xiu, "Xiu, isn't this the way out? Why aren't we leaving?"
Fang Xiu didn't look back and said, "IT IS the way out. You can leave if you want to."
Hearing this, Hei Jiji hesitated no more. She followed everyone onto the Specter Train because she didn't believe Fang Xiu.
Since she often lied, she thought others would lie too.
After everyone got back on the train, the doors closed with a bang. As the doors shut, they all felt the terrifying frozen sensation disappear. Everything returned to a state of calm.
This made Fang Xiu more certain of his guess: the Specter Train was likely arranged by someone on purpose, instead of being a Specter. Its behavior was very different from Specters—it didn't seem to be here to eat them, but just to transport them.
This journey was clearly a trial, making them deal with challenges. Fang Xiu couldn't help wondering: what will the last stop be like? What's 'the Lands Between?' What does it have to do with the Other Side?
Fang Xiu found a seat and sat down.
Hei Jiji quickly came over. "Xiu, did you foresee something? Can you tell me?"
Fang Xiu closed his eyes to rest and did not answer. Hei Jiji pouted and went to talk to Zhao Hao and Liu Shuai.
Time passed, and soon they reached the second stop. The sign for the City of Lust turned blood red.

The doors opened again.
Fang Xiu immediately opened his eyes. He stood up, and walked out.
"Let's go."
With the previous experience, everyone got off quickly, not daring to stay on the train any longer.
The feeling of their Spiritual Energy and bodies freezing was too uncomfortable. It felt like a martial arts expert having their inner strength drained and their tendons cut.
As soon as they got off, they were stunned. The City of Lust was indeed what they thought—a city of bright neon lights and vibrant colors.
At the entrance of the street was a tall archway with the words "Lust" hanging in bright decorations.
Inside, there was a district with many two or three-story buildings. The streets were lined with red, yellow, and pink lanterns, dazzling and making it look like a huge nightclub.
The various lights were blinding and overwhelming.
_'Could such a grotesque and terrifying Specter be this weak? Or was Fang Xiu just that strong?'_
However, Fang Xiu did not come back after defeating the mound. He stood still, as if waiting for something.
The others also realized something was wrong.
The spatial passage hadn't appeared.
Last time, it appeared after they defeated the Big Head Doll, but this time, it didn't.
_'Did the flesh hill not die completely?'_
Just as everyone was puzzled, the hill suddenly began to inflate, like a balloon being blown up rapidly.
BANG!
The flesh hill exploded violently, its body bursting apart. A dense pink mist gushed out from the corpses and spread in all directions.
Fang Xiu swiftly dodged the pink mist.
The others, their faces showing panic, ran away as fast as they could.
However, the pink mist seemed endless, continually pushing everyone outward until they could retreat no further.
Any further, and they would be stepping into the darkness, where the chaotic spatial currents would tear them apart.
"Cover your nose and mouth!" Yang Ming shouted anxiously.
Even though they didn't know what the pink mist was, it definitely wasn't anything good.
Eventually, the pink mist engulfed everyone.
Covering their noses and mouths did no good, as the mist seemed to seep into their bodies on its own.
For a moment, everyone smelled a fragrance so strong that it made them nauseous. It was overpowering, making their minds reel and their senses blur.
Fang Xiu also got enveloped by the pink mist. He thought it was poisonous and tried to use his pain-absorbing ability to heal himself. However, after waiting for a while, he realized he wasn't affected at all.
He frowned.
_'Is my body immune to the poison in the pink mist? Or does it have a delayed effect?'_
As he pondered this, a painful scream suddenly came from behind him. He turned around to see Zhao Hao screaming in agony.
