Chapter 114: The School Sister Who Loves Mirrors (Three)

  Anyone who has studied optics knows that if light is directly shot at a mirror surface, the mirror surface appears black when viewed from the side. Even if it's impossible to find an absolutely flat mirror in reality, the mirror can't be very bright and must be relatively dark. But the mirror surface in Su Qi'er's eyes was emitting dazzling white light, which means that the light beam on the mirror wasn't coming from external direct illumination, but rather from the mirror itself. If a mirror can emit dazzling white light, how could people possibly use it to look at themselves?

  Su Qi suddenly came to a conclusion in her mind: there was something wrong with this mirror!

  "Run!" Su Qi shouted as she pulled Yu SiSi to rush out the door, but found that she couldn't pull her at all. Hadn't SiSi been scared silly? Su Qi turned back to shout and wake up Yu SiSi, only to find that Yu SiSi had disappeared, and the one she was pulling was actually that senior!

  "Where's... Yisi?" Su Qi suddenly flung off her senior's hand, and she herself had no idea when Yisi had disappeared. Everything happened too fast.

  "Do you still have the heart to care about others?" The senior sister revealed a gloomy smile, paired with her pale complexion and eerie appearance, making people feel especially terrified.

  Su Qi wanted to ask Yu Si where she had gone, but was interrupted by a sudden strong light shining towards her. In the dark environment, the strong light shone towards Su Qi, making her eyes sting and her vision suddenly turn white, unable to see the surroundings clearly.

  It wasn't until much later that Su Qiruo slowly opened her eyes, only to find herself in a space filled with mirrors, surrounded by countless reflections of herself, causing her heart to suddenly become flustered.

  "Zhuangzi's dream is bewildered by the butterfly. Is Zhuangzi dreaming of becoming a butterfly, or is the butterfly dreaming of becoming Zhuangzi? Which one is the real you, the present you and the you in the mirror?

  The soft and melancholic voice spreads slowly in the universe, like a sorrowful song that resonates with people's hearts, striking a chord in their fragile emotions. Those who hear it can't help but feel a faint sadness and deep contemplation."

  "Which one is the real me?" Su Qi Ruo responded softly to the voice that came from thin air, looking at herself in the mirror with a slight frown, her face full of confusion. She suddenly felt like laughing, thinking that her expression was quite rich after all. As soon as she thought this, Su Qi Ruo's inner panic disappeared completely.

  Su Qi Ruo had panicked because she knew she really had encountered a demon. But she didn't know how to react, and when the mirror showed countless versions of herself, Su Qi Ruo's first reaction was whether these were all really her own shadows? Or would a fake version of herself suddenly pop out and ambush her?

  However, the demon's words instantly calmed Su Qi Ruo's heart. This demon was actually deceiving herself; if she could deceive herself, didn't that mean she was weak? Most importantly, Su Qi Ruo couldn't understand at all why Master Zhuang would have so many absurd thoughts. As a student who had received materialistic education since childhood, Su Qi Ruo wouldn't think so much. When Su Qi Ruo heard the demon's words "which one is the real you", her first reaction was to find it laughable. Indeed, it was really laughable; how could this question possibly be confusing? She was herself, what other strange thoughts were there?

  "Where is my classmate?" Su Qi Ruo calmly asked into the air, but no matter which angle she looked from, she could see her own shadow, making Su Qi Ruo feel as if she was talking to herself.

  "Aren't you nervous, afraid, curious or worried?" The voice of that demon clan member floated in the air again.

  Su Qi Ruo asked back. "Why should I be nervous, afraid, curious and worried? Now I only care about where Si Si is."

  The demon tribe's leader said with a sigh of relief, "She was confused by me, ordinary humans are useless against me."

  "Oh!" Hearing the demon clan say that, Su Qi was slightly relieved and asked calmly, "What do you want?"

  "What do I want?" Probably no one had ever asked him that before. The demon was stunned by Su Qi's words and didn't react for a long time, finally asking in surprise, "How can you be so calm?"

  "What should I do then?"

  "You should...should...anyway can't be so calm!" The demon tribe didn't know how to respond for a while.

  Su Qi Ruo supported her forehead. "Beauty, you don't think that sentence of yours, 'that's the real you', can deceive me, do you?"

  ……

  "So, don't you want to become beautiful?" The demon tribe suddenly became excited, "You see, women all like being beautiful, right? If you become beautiful, won't you be liked by men? Chased after by men, doted on by men."

  Su Qi stared at herself in the mirror, her eyebrows slightly furrowed, looking rather impatient. It turned out that her emotions were expressed through this expression.

  The demon tribe spoke endlessly for a long time, but Su Qi still didn't have any reaction. The demon tribe became enraged and shouted loudly, "How can you not have any reaction at all?! Don't you like beautiful things?! Look at that woman, she loves her own beauty."

  "Which woman is that?"

  "It's the same one as before." The demon tribe replied in a bad mood.

  "Earlier?" Su Qi thought for a moment, "No, she wasn't unconscious, was she?" "Could it be Senior Sister?"

  "Right."

  "How did you set your sights on senior sister?" Su Qi asked curiously, "Wasn't she talking to herself before, not speaking with you?"

  "It was she who made a move on me!" The demon declared, "She bought the mirror I was in."

  "Since she talks to you every day with a mirror in hand, don't you know what's going on with her?" Su Qi's sharp senses picked up the source of the gossip.

  The demon nodded and said, "I know."

  Su Qi said with great enthusiasm, "Then tell me about your senior sister!"

  "Why tell you?" The demon tribe asked back in discontent.

  "Alright." Su Qi said with a half-threatening tone, "Since you won't say it, I'll just shatter this mirror and leave then." As she spoke, she actually started using her spiritual power, pouring out a steady stream of energy from her hands, causing the demon tribe to panic and exclaim, "Don't! I'll say it! I'll say it!"

  "Hmm..." Su Qi thought to herself that she was just casually saying it, and her spiritual power wasn't quite under control yet. If she got cut by the flying glass shards, it would ruin her face. But this demon clan was really easy to deceive? Was their combat level on par with a ball of fur? Zero? A demon clan at this level was still out here harming people, they'd be easily devoured... luckily she was the one who encountered them, if it were Lu Ke or Shen Ruiwen, they probably wouldn't even have a chance to speak before being annihilated!
