Zhang Yinlin stared at Yelai's eerie smile, the sound of his voice lingering in her ears. Her heart raced, genuinely frightened by Yelai's grin. It was too strange, the curve of his smile unnatural for any human.
She understood that this was a manifestation of the Sequence Feature displayed by a Sequencer. The "Terrifying Eerie Smile" was a characteristic of Yelai's use of Sequence Power. This power was not inherent to humans; it came from an Entity, established through a connection with it. Consequently, when a Sequencer wielded Sequence Power, they would also exhibit certain traits of the Entity.
Zhang Yinlin possessed her own Sequence Feature as well. Each time she activated her Sequence Power, her originally gentle demeanor would turn cold and unapproachable.
Suddenly! Fortunately, Zhang Yinlin had given Ghost Infant orders to protect her long ago, along with years of combat experience. Even though she was startled by Yelai, she reacted swiftly before his hand could touch her collar.
Zhang Yinlin quickly retreated, putting distance between herself and Yelai. At the same time, Ghost Infant, crawling on the ground, reached out and grabbed Yelai's ankle, preventing him from getting any closer to Zhang Yinlin.
Yelai looked down. Their eyes met. The scene was utterly horrifying; any ordinary person would scream in terror if suddenly grabbed by a Ghost Infant at their ankle. Yet Yelai showed no sign of fear whatsoever. He merely glanced down before continuing to approach Zhang Yinlin, dragging along the Ghost Infant that clutched his ankle.
"You were scared just now, weren't you? I can smell the fear on you," he said, his nose twitching as he sniffed the air.
Zhang Yinlin, the intelligent older sister, was taken aback. In their previous interactions, she had come to understand Yelai; she could tell he wasn't lying. She was momentarily astonished that he could detect fear.
However, what surprised her even more was that despite the Ghost Infant's obstruction, Yelai was still able to move forward.
"Are you stronger than the Ghost Infant?!" she exclaimed.
The Ghost Infant resembled a baby, but that didn't mean it was as fragile as one. It was an Entity!
Zhang Yinlin knew all too well that the Ghost Infant possessed immense strength. Those seemingly delicate little hands held power that even the strongest humans could not match.
A thousand pounds!
Her Ghost Infant could easily lift objects weighing a thousand pounds. Binding an adult would be a simple task for it. This was also why, at this End of the Sequence, countless people aspired to become Sequencers and why there existed an insurmountable class gap between Sequencers and ordinary people.
To ordinary people, Sequencers were beings they could never hope to contend with.
As she watched Yelai approach her once more, Zhang Yinlin no longer merely suppressed her scattered emotions; her expression turned solemn in response.
"Get out!" she shouted.
Suddenly, from beneath Yelai's feet, cast long by the light, another Ghost Infant emerged.
It appeared at the left foot of Yelai.
Two Ghost Infants grabbed Yelai's legs, attempting to bind and trip him.
Yelai showcased his Sequencer abilities.
Zhang Yinlin was serious.
Despite the brief encounter, Ye Lai moved forward, ignoring the Ghost Infants' restraints, and she realized Yelai's strength.
"Have you reached Rank Four too?!" she couldn't help but ask.
In response, Yelai simply smiled.
"You guess," he said, turning his neck to look behind him.
There, on the floor—specifically at the head position of Zhang Yinlin's shadow—another Ghost Infant crawled out silently.
It moved with an unnatural speed, like a peculiar creature.
