Upon hearing the news, everyone was taken aback. There were those who genuinely wished them well, and yet others who made light of the situation.
Liu ngjiao stated resolutely in front of the cara, "Thank you all for your concern. We are truly in love. I have no regrets about today’s decision and I believe I will be very, very happy."
At that ti, all the major dia outlets reported on this matter. Liu ngjiao’s words, "I believe I will be very happy", beca a popular catchphrase, touching many fans to tears.
However, in just three short years, the woman who swore she would be happy was now nothing more than a lifeless corpse before their eyes.
Gradually, people began to venture out to see the scene, but no one dared to approach. Qin Sisi could hear people making calls to report the incident to the police.
She did not leave, but was feeling impatient. She wanted to wait for Liu ngjiao’s Silver Soul to appear and was very curious about the true cause of Liu ngjiao’s death. Was it suicide? Homicide? Why?
However, the duration of the Invisible Bubble was running out, and Qin Sisi did not wish to be revealed in the middle of the gathered crowd.
When the Invisible Bubble had only five minutes left, a ghost slowly wafted away from Liu ngjiao’s corpse. As it looked around in a daze and sorrow, the sight of its own cold body stopped the ghost in its tracks.
Without wasting another second, Qin Sisi rushed over and pulled Liu ngjiao’s ghost into the Invisible Bubble.
Liu ngjiao hadn’t fully reacted yet and was just blankly staring at Qin Sisi.
At this point, police sirens could be heard in the distance. Aware of the urgency, Qin Sisi, looking into Liu ngjiao’s eyes, said hurriedly, "Liu ngjiao, I’m a Mage, a contractee of Soul Power and a fan of yours. I will help you fulfill your unfinished wishes. Follow now!"
Liu ngjiao continued to stare blankly at Qin Sisi. Not knowing if Liu ngjiao understood her, and seeing no signs of resistance, Qin Sisi moved forward without hesitation, grabbing ngjiao’s hand and activating the Wings of Rainbow to fly into the rainy night sky.
The noise behind them was growing fainter and the world was settling back into tranquility within the uninterrupted rain, apart from one additional mournful ghost.
Soon, the duration of the Invisible Bubble ended. Qin Sisi had to retract the Wings of Rainbow, allowing Ye You to create a silver sphere with magic to carry them back ho.
However, Ye You’s Spiritual Power was weak at the mont, resulting in the silver sphere’s flight being very slow.
When they arrived ho, it was nearly three in the morning.
Qin Sisi was deeply concerned about Liu ngjiao’s ghost. As soon as they returned ho, she moved her to the sofa and gently asked her a few questions.
However, whether Liu ngjiao didn’t understand or didn’t want to speak, she just sat there in a daze, head down, without uttering a word.
An hour passed in the blink of an eye. Ye You, standing aside, suggested, "Sisi, let put her away for now. Give her so ti to recuperate, and we can ask her again tomorrow night. You need to rest too."
After such an intense experience in the underworld, rushing to the hospital upon returning and encountering Liu ngjiao on the way back to their residence, they had almost gone two days without rest.
Qin Sisi looked at Liu ngjiao with disappointnt, noticing her blank expression and tight lips. Realizing that they wouldn’t get anything out of her for a while, Qin Sisi agreed to Ye You’s suggestion, allowing Ye You to put Liu ngjiao’s ghost into the Portable Space.
The continuous tension from the night was finally eased, and fatigue began to spread rapidly.
Qin Sisi let out a yawn, freshened up in the bathroom with Ye You, then the two collapsed onto the warm and comfortable bed, falling asleep in each other’s arms.
When they woke up, it was close to noon.
Looking at the warm sunlight streaming through the curtains, Qin Sisi could clearly feel that the breath of spring was becoming ever more present.
She rolled over, intending to look at Ye You, and found herself gazing into Ye You’s purple eyes.
With a bashful smile curving at the corners of her lips, Ye You placed his paw over her fair cheek.
They looked at each other in silence, their expressions filled with tenderness.
Not long after, Qin Sisi rembered the gift given to her by the ssenger of Death in the underworld who had a relationship with Master Hong Bo. That gift was quickly taken by Ye You, and she hadn’t gotten the chance to see what it was.
"Hey, what was the gift that the ssenger of Death gave? You seed very interested in it," Qin Sisi curiously asked.
Ye You, with a warm smile in his eyes, sat up and retrieved the gift from the Portable Space and handed it to her.
Black silk thread, wrapped in black cloth, slightly larger than a fist, and discernable corners could be made out through the cloth.
What could it be?
"Let see." Qin Sisi snatched the wrapped item impatiently.
"It’s so heavy!" Qin Sisi exclaid in surprise. The small wrapped item was unexpectedly heavy. It seed so weightless when Ye You held it in his paws beforehand.
Ye You didn’t say anything, only looking at her adoringly.
As Qin Sisi unwrapped it, a delicately crafted artifact was revealed before her eyes.
This was a miniature bell made of gold, with a series of foreign characters engraved on it, which Qin Sisi didn’t recognize. They looked like so religious glyphs.
Additionally, blood-red gemstones were embedded around the upper and lower edges of the bell, four on top and five below.
The nine gemstones were full of color, glossy and bright. When observed from a distance, they resembled droplets of blood just recently congealed from wounded flesh—only glossier.
"Beautiful, isn’t it?" teased Ye You, seeing Qin Sisi’s srized stare.
Qin Sisi hesitated before responding, "It’s beautiful, but is it of any use to us?"
She rembered Ye You’s eagerness when he took the item from the ssenger of Death, and she knew it was not due to its beauty.
Ye You explained, "The Blood Jade Golden Bell possesses a very powerful and pure spiritual power, and the characters engraved on it have the effect of warding off evil."
Qin Sisi hesitated before saying, "Blood Jade Golden Bell? Is it made of real gold? Are the rubies the Blood Jade?"
Ye You confird, "Correct, it’s made from pure gold and blood jade, incredibly valuable."
Qin Sisi made a surprised expression and laughed, "I feel like I’ve beco a millionaire."
Ye You cleared his throat and said, "Don’t get ahead of yourself. Its purpose is to upgrade your Magic Attribute, not for trade."
"Upgrade Magic Attribute?" Qin Sisi looked at Ye You, puzzled.
Ye You nodded and continued, "Do you rember when I told you that the Soul-locking Nail, used to activate the Gold Attribute Magic was of a very low grade? Well, this Blood Jade Golden Bell is of top grade. With an upgrade, your Gold Attribute Magic will be significantly strengthened."
