The intruder moved lightly, his footsteps barely making a sound on the hard brick floor.

If Li Yidao were in a deep slumber, he wouldn’t have noticed.

Of course, the vigilance of the Grim Reaper’s Protection would surely alert him.

However…

Who could guarantee that the intruder didn’t have other methods to bypass the system?

As the intruder gradually drew near, Li Yidao noticed that after taking a few steps, he clearly froze in place!

Even his breathing seemed to be disordered at this moment!

It was an instinctive reaction to sudden fright.

Li Yidao decided to stop pretending at this point!

He suddenly sat up!

As expected, the intruder wasn’t human!

He had already considered this possibility!

Moreover, after the intruder entered, he felt his presence!

It wasn’t the aura of a human being!

So, Li Yidao wasn’t surprised at all!

Looking at the scarecrow in front of him, his expression carried a hint of mockery.

“What’s wrong? Surprised?”

Li Yidao slowly got up and approached the scarecrow, which had a somewhat blank expression.

Now he understood why the scarecrow had frozen for a moment when it first entered.

He was startled by the paper doll he had placed.

Even a scarecrow could have a subconscious reaction.

He subconsciously glanced at the expression on his paper doll.

Hmm…

Even if a ghost came across a paper doll that looked so eerie, smiling at it directly, it would also have a subconscious reaction, right?

The scarecrow remained silent upon hearing Li Yidao’s words.

He didn’t speak for a long time, and Li Yidao didn’t rush it.

He stood still, gazing at the scarecrow with a faint smile playing on his lips.

Through the specially crafted eyes of the scarecrow, Li Yidao saw a familiar expression, which further confirmed his suspicions.

“Zhang Goudan!” Li Yidao couldn’t help but think. “This guy really has some issues!”

Sighing internally, he realized that his last trace of pity and hope had been extinguished.

How could such a simple eye be faked?

“How did you find out?” The scarecrow finally asked, its mouth unmoving as it emitted an eerie sound from an unknown source, giving off an eerie sensation. Li Yidao smiled faintly. “Do you know why people call me the Grim Reaper?” The scarecrow stood frozen in place, unable to respond.

Li Yidao continued with a sneer, “People call me the Grim Reaper because… I can actually decide someone’s life and death.”

“Furthermore, since I am the Grim Reaper, I can naturally see the souls of the dead.”

“Do you understand?”

Li Yidao’s lips were filled with contempt.

However, beneath that contemptuous expression, he was alert and ready to unleash the Blade of Death at any moment.

The reason he was still talking to the intruder was that he wanted to try and learn more about his identity.

At this point, Li Yidao wasn’t even sure who was behind all these attacks and traps against him.

These attacks made him very speechless.

He often found himself breaking through others’ schemes inexplicably.

If someone wasn’t targeting him and mounting effective counterattacks, it would be strange!

The scarecrow remained silent for a moment, seemingly lost in thought.

His expression even showed a hint of surprise.

Finally, he broke the silence with a puzzled question, “Have you seen my father?”

Li Yidao smiled slightly and replied, “Is it really your father?”

This time, the scarecrow didn’t remain silent but instead helplessly shook his head.

“He is indeed my father, but… I did my best to protect him. Why did he go to seek justice for those deceased sacrifices? His death was unavoidable, and if he didn’t die, our entire family would have perished!”

“For the sake of our family, I had no choice but to push him down.”

“Heh, who would have thought that the old man would actually come back? Is he here for revenge against me?”

The last sentence contained a touch of self-mockery and sadness. It was evident that the scarecrow felt some guilt toward his own father.

Hmm?

It seemed like there was something else going on.

Li Yidao sensed something amiss in Zhang Goudan’s tone.

He felt that Zhang Goudan might be preparing for something, possibly preparing for a desperate move.

However, Li Yidao hadn’t obtained the answers he wanted yet.

After some contemplation, he continued with a calm tone, “Your father is trapped, controlled by the scarecrow you’re currently controlling. Wasn’t that your arrangement?”

“What?” Zhang Goudan conveyed a tone of shock through the scarecrow. It was evident that he was surprised and somewhat angry. Li Yidao continued to look at him with a smile.

He did not speak.

The scarecrow in front of them initially seemed like it wanted to take further action, but upon seeing Li Yidao’s expression, it stopped its movements.

Shortly afterward, the scarecrow collapsed, reverting to the appearance it had during the day.

Then, the creaking of the door was heard once again.

Zhang Goudan entered, wearing a cold expression, carrying a small puppet made of straw, or one could say, a straw-made figurine.

It appeared that this puppet was how he controlled the scarecrow.

Zhang Goudan didn’t pay any attention to the fallen scarecrow or the gaze Li Yidao directed at him. He asked in a cold tone, “Are you sure you could see my father trapped by a scarecrow?”

Li Yidao, still maintaining his smile, responded, “Isn’t that what you told me?

You invited me here to help free your father’s soul from the scarecrow, right? Why are you asking me again now?”

Zhang Goudan took a deep breath, seemingly trying to contain his anger, and continued, “Are you sure that my father is trapped by a scarecrow?” This time, Li Yidao chose not to reply, merely watching Zhang Goudan.

It was strange.

His Blade of Death seemed to be ineffective against this guy.

It worked only on the scarecrow earlier.

Zhang Goudan must have some unique abilities.

They stood there in silence for almost ten minutes, neither of them saying a word, just staring at each other.

In the end, Zhang Goudan seemed to deflate like a balloon losing air.

His eyes were filled with profound melancholy, and his voice carried sadness as he spoke once more, “Please, tell me if my father is genuinely controlled by a scarecrow.”

“If you do… I can share some information you might want to know.”

Clearly, Zhang Goudan had bowed his head.

It seemed that Zhang Ermao’s situation was important to him, or at least, what had happened to Zhang Ermao mattered significantly.

After some brief contemplation, Li Yidao nodded gently without speaking.

With his response, Zhang Goudan’s eyes filled with deeper sorrow, even a hint of despair.

He muttered to himself, “It’s impossible… It promised me it would release my father… It promised me…”

“It can’t be… It said… it would let my father go…”

“How could this happen….”
