I can rewind time to prevent death

Hearing the words of the Lantern Woman, Yan Junze suddenly froze, "What?! There are other strangenesses in my dream besides you two and that Black Dress Woman?"

The Lantern Woman nodded.

"Who is it?" Yan Junze felt a deep sense of astonishment.

The Lantern Woman said, "You turned your back to me."

As she spoke, a black aura rose from her body, and her wounds began to slowly heal at a rate visible to the naked eye.

Yan Junze, his face full of suspicion, hadn't turned around yet when he heard Jia Sheng's head shout, "I want that one, the man in the grey clothes!"

Yan Junze's attention was already completely drawn to another strangeness mentioned by the Lantern Woman; he had no time to listen to him and said, "Since you're not leaving anyway, all the headless corpses here are yours, choose whoever you like. Whether it's a man today or a woman tomorrow, it's all fine."

With that, he followed the instructions of the Lantern Woman and turned around, his back facing her.

"What next?" Yan Junze asked.

"Just wait a bit more," the Lantern Woman replied.

About five seconds later, the Lantern Woman spoke again, "Now turn around, face me."

Yan Junze turned as told and looked at the Lantern Woman, wondering what she was planning.

"Walk a few steps forward," the Lantern Woman instructed.

Yan Junze felt like a fool at that moment, but had no choice and took three steps forward, drawing closer to the Lantern Woman.

"This woman... she isn't trying to find an excuse to harm me, is she?" A trace of suspicion rose in his mind.

"Alright, that's good. Now turn and look at the place you were standing just now," said the Lantern Woman.

Without hesitation, Yan Junze immediately turned around.

The scene that appeared before him startled him suddenly, it felt hauntingly familiar.

He saw that where he had just stood and turned around, there was now a familiar yet unfamiliar figure.

It was because the figure looked so familiar that only after a few seconds did Yan Junze realize it was himself.

His own "figure" was still in the position as though it had just turned around, without moving or turning back, just maintaining the posture of turning its back to him and the Lantern Woman, motionless.

"This... this is..." Yan Junze's mind raced with memories, and then he blurted out, "Is this the strangeness from that 'Figure' mission?!"

The Lantern Woman didn't know what he was talking about and had no idea about any 'Figure' mission, but simply said, "He came in a few days ago and was going to be harmful to you on the day he entered your dreams. But he feared me, so he has been hiding and didn't make a move on you."

Yan Junze noticed that, while the Lantern Woman was speaking, this doppelgänger that looked exactly like him was trembling slightly.

When he had used the Black Spirit Mallet to eliminate this figure-like strangeness, Yan Junze had thought it was completely gone, but who would have guessed it still hid a special ability and continued "surviving" by sneaking into dreams.

If the Lantern Woman hadn't mentioned, Yan Junze wouldn't have noticed its existence until now.

"He is now suppressed by me, unable to break free, and can be eliminated."

After the Lantern Woman had spoken, she slowly stood up; her injuries had healed a bit, and she was able to stand up with difficulty. She walked towards Yan Junze's figure.

At this time, Jia Sheng's head also wobbled and floated up, not entirely stable, but at least he could fly on his own again.

All he did was laugh loudly, "I want this one..."

Then the head dove towards a headless corpse.

Yan Junze couldn't be bothered with him and stopped the Lantern Woman from moving further, "Don't, this guy is somewhat interesting. I thought he was gone after I dealt with him last time. Hmm, now I want to take him out with me."

The Lantern Woman stopped; her severed head had now recovered. She tilted her head to look at Yan Junze, "Are you sure?"

"Hmm."

Yan Junze pointed in the direction of Jia Sheng.

By this time, Jia Sheng's head was already attached to a male headless corpse; he wobbled to his feet with difficulty, and the head was maniacally laughing, looking almost deranged.

One glance at it, and it was obvious that the head and body, though next to each other, looked completely separated and discordant, but Jia Sheng didn't care at all anymore.

"Your husband seems very happy; finding so many headless corpses for you is the only thing I can do now." Yan Junze said without a hint of embarrassment, "Since you're unwilling to leave this place, I hope we can coexist peacefully from now on."

The Lantern Woman took her gaze from the frenzied Jia Sheng, said nothing, slightly bowed her head, and placed her hands at her waist, giving Yan Junze a small bow.

Yan Junze walked towards his own "figure" and as he was about to get close, he hesitated and stopped.

An instinctive feeling made Yan Junze think the "figure" strangeness would be of great use to him, but he didn't know how to make it serve him.

After a pause, he prepared to cast "Evil Spirit Solid Lock" on this "figure."

Because this was inside a dream, actions unrelated to the dream would lose their effect, such as releasing a strangeness like Lockdown, deploying the Black Spirit Mallet, but Yan Junze was unsure if "Evil Spirit Solid Lock" could be triggered.

On second thought, since the "figure" was able to enter dreams, that meant it had a natural ability to integrate into the dream realm. Whether "Evil Spirit Solid Lock" could be effectively used in dreams was uncertain to Yan Junze. However, if the Lockdown could merge with the dream-integrating figure strangeness, perhaps it could be successful.

The next second, he activated "Evil Spirit Solid Lock," and just to be safe, Yan Junze set the strength of the Lockdown to the highest level.

At the moment of activation, he slapped the shoulder of the "figure" strangeness.

Upon contact with the shoulder, Yan Junze's entire body trembled as if resonating at the same frequency; the "figure" strangeness in front of him suddenly displayed a double image.
