Velen's hair stood on end, his neck stiff as he turned his head, seeing behind him a ghost doll wearing a skull mask and holding a tattered porcelain doll. The doll in its arms clearly resembled Velen, its head almost torn off, as if foreshadowing Velen's fate.
Velen was about to agree when suddenly Wutong spoke up, "Refuse her."
Velen exploded instantly, shouting excitedly, "What? Refuse her? I'll die if I refuse her!"
Violet immediately placed the sword against his neck, saying, "If you don't refuse it, you'll die now."
"Fine, fine! I refuse, I refuse!" Velen could only shout desperately.
Sure enough, upon hearing Velen's refusal, the ghost doll's face contorted, its head quickly ballooned like a balloon, and with a gaping mouth full of sharp teeth, it lunged at Velen.
