Lin Xingjie was almost stunned.
"...No, it has nothing to do with you."
Xu Xiangyang shook his head.
"He must have planned this in advance, and even Teacher Yang, who was possessed by the monster, was just a lure. His target... might still be the two of us."

At first glance, these monsters looked like long bugs resembling centipedes, but in reality, they were more like a hideous and ugly amalgamation of various insect species.
In essence, they were the same type of beings as the Ghost House Elder and Xiao An— invisible to ordinary people yet capable of interfering with reality. However, they couldn't compare in strength to either the Ghost House Elder or Xiao An.
But they had a special mode of survival: that was to burrow into human bodies and merge with them. This was the so-called "possession."
