"I’ll come out! I’m coming out!"
When Gu Zhiqi counted to two, Meng Xiao could already feel her soul being forcibly torn apart.
With this intensity, if she insisted on not leaving Qiao Nan’s body, in another second, she might really be scattered to the winds, unable to even enter the Reincarnation Path.
As soon as Meng Xiao’s voice fell, she drifted out of Qiao Nan’s body with the golden light emanating from the Eight Trigrams Array.
Immediately after, the talisman papers that formed the Eight Trigrams Array shifted, forming a circle and trapping Meng Xiao in the middle.
Meng Xiao looked at the Eight Trigrams Array surrounding her, her eyes filled with shock, "This formation, you..."
She’s only a few years old and can set up such a powerful formation.
Gu Zhiqi didn’t have time to pay attention to Meng Xiao’s shock but turned to look at Qiao Nan who was hiding in the corner, "How is it going? Have you absorbed it all?"
"It’s all absorbed, the timing was just right," Qiao Nan immediately responded.
"Qiao Nan! You’re still alive? How can you still be alive?!" Hearing Qiao Nan’s voice, Meng Xiao screamed, her face filled with disbelief as she looked at Qiao Nan.
She couldn’t believe that Qiao Nan was actually still alive.
Qiao Nan glared coldly at Meng Xiao, wishing she could pounce on her and fight with Meng Xiao who had taken over her body.
Her soul had drifted out of her body, and this was still considered being alive?
"Once you’re done absorbing, come over," Gu Zhiqi said to Qiao Nan.
Last night, Gu Zhiqi had placed a formation on Qiao Nan’s soul body that required twelve hours to absorb.
All the banter with Meng Xiao was just to kill time.
"Alright!" Upon hearing this, Qiao Nan immediately shifted her gaze from Meng Xiao and drifted over to Gu Zhiqi.
"Try to lie back down in your body," Gu Zhiqi said, pointing to the body lying on the couch.
The moment she heard this, Qiao Nan did as instructed.
Just as Qiao Nan had floated next to her own body and started to align her legs with her body, she felt a suction from behind her, and then, she was suddenly pulled backward.
Everything went dark, and she lost consciousness.
"No! Impossible! How could this be?"
Meng Xiao, trapped in the middle of the Bagua Circular Formation, saw that Qiao Nan had truly returned to her body and was completely in disbelief.
Gu Zhiqi raised her hand, bit her thumb, and blood began to seep out from the wound.
Bending down, Gu Zhiqi’s blood-stained thumb gently touched Qiao Nan’s forehead, locking Qiao Nan’s body back into her own.
Gu Mengyang stood somewhat stunned, watching Gu Zhiqi talk to herself for quite a while.
When she finally came to her senses and looked around the rest area, she couldn’t make sense of the situation, so she lowered her profile and continued to stand quietly to the side.
It was only when she saw Gu Zhiqi bite her own finger that Gu Mengyang’s eyebrows slightly furrowed, "Why bite yourself?"
Upon hearing this, Gu Zhiqi merely arched an eyebrow, took a piece of paper, casually wiped her cut finger, and did not answer Gu Mengyang’s question, instead fixing her gaze on Meng Xiao, "Why place talisman paper in Gu Mengyang’s office?"
Meng Xiao, still in disbelief, looked up at Gu Zhiqi when she heard her voice. Filled with jealousy and enmity, she asked, "Which order of Mystic Master are you?"
Hearing Meng Xiao’s question, Gu Zhiqi’s brows lifted slightly, "Does that matter?"
"You answer my question, and I will answer yours," Meng Xiao said, her gaze fixed on Gu Zhiqi, the jealousy and enmity in her eyes undiminished.
"Fourth-order," Gu Zhiqi casually made up an answer.
"Fourth-order?" Meng Xiao screamed, her face filled with disbelief.
