Everyone has awakened, but I am the only mortal!

Faced with danger, Chen Hua instinctively dodged. Hei Zi and Chen Hua walked back one after the other and were also affected. Although they were not close to Chen Hua, they were also swept away by the blade-like palm wind and their entire bodies were thrown out.

Huang Xiang stood steadily, and with just a slight lift of his hand, he could unleash invisible wind blades in the air—what a terrifying ability that was.

The wind blade landed on the ground, but the ordeal didn't end there. The ground began to shake, and a long gash was torn open, with dazzling white light bursting out from the ground.

Su Bai looked at the familiar white and only had time to frown before losing consciousness. Before he lost consciousness, he still heard Old Zhou cursing: "Damn it! You son of a bitch."

When Su Bai regained consciousness, the first thing he heard was Old Zhou's cursing: "Did a donkey kick your brain? If you like to show off, go somewhere else! Are you satisfied now that you've dragged everyone into this strange realm?"

Before Su Bai could even get there, he heard a "smack".

The surroundings became quiet, and Old Zhou's cursing stopped.

Then he saw Lao Zhou walk back and sit down next to him, with a clear handprint on his cheek next to Lao Zhou's.

After Old Zhou sat down, he turned his head and saw that Su Bai was awake. He said to him, "I'm not afraid, I just never bother to hit women. Do you believe me?"

Su Bai: "...A letter."

Old Zhou's previously dejected face immediately brightened up again: "That's right, when have we men from Northeast China ever hit women? The only male-only domestic violence prevention center in the country is in Northeast China. What does that mean? It means that we men from Northeast China love our wives."

Su Bai's approval allowed Lao Zhou to regain his pride.

At this moment, Su Bai noticed that the only person awake in the room was the woman named Huang Xiang, along with himself and Lao Zhou. Everyone else was lying slumped on the ground, still unconscious.

After Su Bai got up, he looked around at his surroundings. It was a room, but this time the room was very ordinary. There was a table in the middle of the room, and on the table was a piece of raw meat weighing about forty pounds. It was placed there very conspicuously.

The raw meat looks very fresh, like it was just cut.

Su Bai glanced at it and thought it looked like beef.

Through the window, you can see the scenery outside, and you can vaguely see the grassland and forest in the distance, but it's raining outside now, which adds a sense of haziness.

Huang Xiang was aloof. After being provoked by Lao Zhou, she was left alone and looked around the room by herself. Finally, she stood by the window and looked out, lost in thought.

Before long, Luo Zheng and the others woke up one after another.

After experiencing the strange realm, Luo Zheng and the others calmly accepted reality upon waking up.

Before everyone could figure out their situation, they split into two factions. One faction consisted of six people, led by Huang Xiang, including one woman and five men.

The other faction consisted of six people, led by Su Bai and Luo Zheng.

Luo Zheng looked at Huang Xiang with a cold expression, no longer showing the excitement and agitation he had when he first saw her: "Huang Xiang, you should explain what's going on."

Huang Xiang coldly stared at Luo Zheng and his group: "You're the one who should be explaining. What are you trying to do, hanging out with monsters?"

"A monster? You're calling me a monster?"

Before Huang Xiang could even name names, Chen Hua angrily spoke up: "You suddenly attacked me, and I haven't even settled accounts with you yet, but you're already accusing me of being a monster?"

Huang Xiang didn't even glance at Chen Hua, only looking at Luo Zheng: "Luo Zheng, you know very well that I wouldn't make a mistake."

Earlier, when everyone saw Luo Zheng call out Huang Xiang's name, they guessed that the two knew each other, but Huang Xiang's expression was too indifferent, as if she were looking at a stranger, so everyone was no longer sure.

When Huang Xiang called out Luo Zheng's name, everyone was certain that the two knew each other.

As Huang Xiang finished speaking, Luo Zheng fell silent.

His silence was undoubtedly an admission of Huang Xiang's words.

Everyone present knew that Huang Xiang's judgment must have its basis.

Su Bai and the others did not know Huang Xiang, so they naturally did not understand why she was so certain that Chen Hua was a monster.

Fortunately, Zheng Ge lowered his voice in time and added an explanation: "Huang Xiang has the ability to sense evil spirits and never makes a mistake."

While others remained calm, Chen Hua instantly became agitated: "So what? Just because she can sense evil spirits doesn't mean she can call me a monster? Does she have any evidence? Without evidence, it's slander!"

Huang Xiang was too lazy to argue with him. Her gaze remained fixed on Luo Zheng, her eyes indifferent, clearly waiting for him to make a statement.

Luo Zheng remained silent for a long time before slowly speaking: "Without monsters triggering it, the entrance to the otherworld cannot be forcibly opened."

"With so many people here, why are you so sure it's me?" Chen Hua abruptly interrupted him, his anger flaring. "I could say you're all monsters! By that logic, everyone here is a suspect, so why are you singled out and focusing on me?"

Having said that, he took two steps forward without fear, facing Huang Xiang directly, his gaze sharp and unwavering as he stared at her: "If I really am a monster, then now you should carefully sense whether I possess any evil spirits."

Chen Hua's frankness and boldness caused everyone present to hesitate.

Yes, if he really was a monster, how could he dare to confront Huang Xiang, who has the ability to sense evil spirits, head-on?

But on the other hand, could this be a monster in disguise, deliberately using its openness to confuse people and conceal its true nature?

The crowd was undecided, and no one dared to express their opinion easily.

Finally, Luo Zheng spoke up to smooth things over: "Huang Xiang, try to sense it again. Perhaps you made a mistake because you were too hasty just now."

Huang Xiang's face grew even colder, her tone filled with barely concealed irritation: "You think I haven't tried? After arriving here, my sensory abilities were completely suppressed and rendered useless."

Clearly, her inability to perform her own abilities made her, who was proud and arrogant, extremely unhappy.

Luo Zheng was taken aback, his tone tinged with surprise: "When we entered the other realm last time, this never happened. Our senses and abilities were working normally."

Huang Xiang chuckled, her tone laced with sarcasm: "So it was true that the idiot said this place was another realm. You all entered here together?"

While others were still trying to figure out who the "idiot" was referring to, Old Zhou couldn't help but jump out first, retorting with his neck stiff, "Who are you calling an idiot?"

Huang Xiang glanced at him indifferently, her tone icy: "Whoever answers, I'll curse them out."

Old Zhou's eyes darted around, and he drawled out an "Oh—" before feigning sudden realization: "So, you're the idiot!"

Huang Xiang: "..."

Everyone: "......."

An awkward silence fell over the room.

Old Zhou wanted to press his advantage and make a few more teasing remarks, but Luo Zheng grabbed him and lowered his voice to remind him: "Huang Xiang herself is immune to calamities and can even protect those around her. Are you sure you want to offend her in this strange realm? Don't forget, we still don't know how to get out of here."
