Gu Zhiqi listened, nodded his head, "If your master agrees, you can find me anytime."
Jin Cenglv gave a gentle nod without saying anything further.
Listening to the conversation between Jin Cenglv and Gu Zhiqi, Lv Yao was initially bewildered for a moment, but once he gathered his thoughts, he immediately leaned close to Jin Cenglv and whispered, "No, Sister, what’s there to hide about a problematic mental method? Show it to the master, he can’t possibly devour you for it."
Lv Yao had already believed Gu Zhiqi’s words to a great extent.
One reason: Gu Zhiqi’s ability.
Gu Zhiqi’s strength was clearly far superior to his and his sister’s; the other party must possess higher-level mental methods and probably didn’t covet theirs.
The other reason: The decline of the Mysterious Sect.
If there was nothing wrong with the mental method, then it shouldn’t be that there hadn’t been a Fifth-order Mystic Master within the past five hundred years.
He even began to suspect that it wasn’t just their lineage’s mental method that was problematic, but perhaps the entire Mysterious Sect’s mental methods were flawed.
Hearing Lv Yao’s words, Jin Cenglv slightly furrowed her brows, glanced sideways, and gave Lv Yao a faint look, "Whether the mental method is problematic or not, the rules of the Master’s Sect must not be broken."
Lv Yao "..." Fine, then.
Just then, Gu Mengyang, who had been out for a while, walked in from outside. He approached Gu Zhiqi and said, "It’s getting late, shall we take your friends and go for a meal?"
They had been busy all morning with the Formation and Jin Cenglv’s advancement had also taken a lot of time; it was already one o’clock in the afternoon.
Gu Mengyang was aware of this, as Gu Zhiqi hadn’t eaten anything since getting up.
Gu Zhiqi remembered he hadn’t eaten, and indeed felt hungry by now.
Looking at Lv Yao and Jin Cenglv, he said, "Let’s go, and have a meal, my treat."
After speaking, as if thinking of something, he turned his gaze to Gu Mengyang and said leisurely, "You’re paying."
Gu Mengyang "... I’ll pay."
After the meal, Lv Yao and Jin Cenglv left. Before leaving, Jin Cenglv added Gu Zhiqi as a friend.
After leaving the restaurant, Gu Mengyang and Gu Zhiqi went straight to Mengyang Entertainment.
When they arrived at the top floor of Mengyang Entertainment, remembering that Gu Mengyang mentioned contacting Meng Xiao yesterday, Gu Zhiqi glanced sideways and asked, "Have you contacted the person with the Talisman Paper? When can we meet?"
Gu Mengyang recalled this matter upon hearing it, slightly knitted his brows, and answered Gu Zhiqi’s question, "Meng Xiao isn’t in Yan City; she went to Sen City to shoot a movie and probably won’t be back for another half a month."
Gu Zhiqi heard this and lightly nodded his head, "Then we’ll talk when she comes back." He took a few more steps forward, then remembering the malevolent aura in the office, he stopped, turned his head slightly, and glanced at Gu Mengyang, "Have you changed the jade pendant?"
"Changed it." said Gu Mengyang, hooking a red string from around his neck and showing it to Gu Zhiqi, "Take a look, does this have a protective effect?"
The jade pendant was carved by Yu Shuling, and he was somewhat concerned about it since his mother wasn’t exactly reliable.
Gu Zhiqi glanced at it casually and lightly nodded, "Yeah, it does."
Seeing this, Gu Mengyang put the jade pendant back under his collar.
Approaching the office door, Gu Zhiqi suddenly said to Gu Mengyang, "Be careful of the person named Qiao Nan."
Gu Mengyang "..." ???
"What’s wrong with her? Is she also out to harm me?"
Gu Mengyang was a bit puzzled. This...there were too many issues with his company’s artists.
One sapping destiny, another planting Talisman Paper to attract malevolence and trying to kill him, and now, another one who seemed... also intent on harming him?
