Gu Shiyan’s expression turned even uglier when he thought about how Fang Wen wanted to sar that thing on his body and mouth.
Calmly, he resealed the box and set it aside. “What happens if this thing is applied to soone?”
“This is a dark art from T Country. So people use it to sar their lips, and the first person they kiss will fall deeply in love with them. With the right combination of other thods, it can make soone completely lose their self-awareness and beco a puppet for others,” Lu Miao explained, giving him a aningful look.
If the person who targeted Gu Shiyan was a woman, it was likely that she didn’t just want to control him but also have him fall for her.
Shen Muhan looked at Gu Shiyan with disdain. “It must be because you go around flirting with won everywhere, so soone used this dark art to deal with you.”
Gu Shiyan glared at him fiercely and then turned to explain to Lu Miao inside the room, “She’s just an employee from the cooperating company. I’ve only t her a few tis during lousiness discussions.”
Lu Miao waved her hand, coming out of the room and quickly distancing herself from the two of them. “I’m not interested in who she is. If there’s nothing else, I’ll leave first.”
She then emphasized to Gu Shiyan, “Don’t go back to Lingyue Manor.”
Lu Miao was afraid that if Gu Shiyan went back, the whole house would be filled with that foul sll, and she would be tempted to throw the entire Lingyue Manor away.
“Boss, let drive you.” Shen Muhan hurriedly offered.
Lu Miao imdiately gestured to stop him, then turned around and left at the fastest speed possible.
Gu Shiyan glanced back at the villa behind him, Yushui Bay, with a price almost as high as Lingyue Manor. Since she ca to Luo City three months ago, she had only been known to buy two properties: Lingyue Manor and Yushui Bay, which together cost over two billion. He didn’t know about any others.
Considering her behavior since she arrived in Luo City, there was only one explanation: she was not Lu Miao.
But if she wasn’t Lu Miao, then who was she?
Lu Miao returned to Lingyue Manor, went to the bathroom, and put special spices and herbs into the bathtub. After soaking for half an hour, she completely got rid of the contaminated sll from her body. Then she changed her clothes and went downstairs, throwing away the clothes she had taken off.
After dinner, Lu Miao took Lu Yinan to the nearby No. 9 Manor. After several days of treatnt, his hand injuries had improved significantly. Lu Miao administered acupuncture and applied dicine once again.
She took the newly cultivated Starfall Herb and extracted a portion from it. Then, she separately refined it into pills with the remaining experintal sample. Upon comparing the results from the analytical data of the instrunts, there seed to be no difference.
Lu Yinan stood beside her, watching Lu Miao busy herself with various instrunts. He felt proud and complex at the sa ti. Not only was she an academic genius, but she also excelled in dicine. Her future was boundless. A sister as exceptional as her would be treasured in any family, yet their parents subjected her to all sorts of abuse and eventually drove her out.
However, it was for the best. Parents like Lu Qin and Qin Shuang were unworthy of such a wonderful daughter. In the future, he would make sure to protect her.
Once Lu Miao finished her work, the two returned to their rooms, and it was already 11 p.m. Lu Miao pushed open the balcony door, stepped onto the balcony, and waved her hand toward the night sky. A dark-red array of light appeared before her.
She gazed at it for a mont. Lin Bufan had already given her all the necessary tools and items for breaking the formation. The pills made from the Starfall Herb were also ready.
Only three days were left until the three-month deadline.
The mastermind behind this sche was likely already aware of the three-month deadline; otherwise, they wouldn’t have made their move against Gu Shiyan at this critical mont and resorted to such a despicable thod as using corpse oil.
Moreover, during their previous encounters, they had suffered heavy losses, so they must have made many preparations during this period, waiting to engage her in a life-and-death battle in three days.
However, she had no intention of continuing to wait. Everyone believed she would wait for the three-month deadline, but she wanted to catch them off guard.
She ordered Gu Shiyan not to return ho and since Gu Jinxi didn’t co back tonight, it was the perfect ti for her to sneak out and break the formation.
Lu Miao’s lips curled up, and she stepped on the edge of the balcony, leaping gracefully to the ground. She then walked into the darkness.
It was late, and all the teachers and students staying at the school had already fallen asleep. Lu Miao easily jumped into the school from behind the plavzround.
The Star Observatory had been completed and delivered. Lu Miao took the elevator to the top floor.
Unlike regular teaching buildings, the central area of the Star Observatory’s roof was specially set with a stone platform. There were stone pillars surrounding the platform, arranged according to the principles of the Five Elents and Eight Trigrams.
Lu Miao took out everything from her portable spatial artifact and placed the objects on the corresponding stone pillars according to the formation in the night sky above her.
Finally, she took out a gray robe.
Although the robe looked sowhat worn, under the moonlight, one could still faintly see shimring golden threads amidst the worn-out areas.
Lu Miao put on the robe and stood in the center of the stone platform. Her hands ford seals, and she quickly perford various gestures.
From the instrunts on the surrounding stone pillars, several golden lights suddenly shot out like long swords piercing through the sky, entering the Seven Killing Formation above her head.
At the sa ti, several golden lights shot out from different directions around Luo City, reflecting and connecting with the golden light on the Star Observatory’s roof.
These were formations that Lu Miao had secretly set up during one weekend.
Several light columns inserted into the formation in the night sky simultaneously, and the light shone brightly. The golden light spread along the originally dark-red formation, almost instantly covering the entire formation and causing it to shake violently.
In just one minute, a corner of the formation had begun to collapse and disintegrate.
The shaking of the formation intensified.
Lu Miao’s movents quickened, and the collapsing edge rapidly spread and diffused towards the surrounding formations.
In the vast night sky, the massive formation was disintegrated by nearly half at a speed visible to the naked eye.
If this continued, the entire formation would be broken in a matter of minutes.
Finally, the opposing force detected the attack and began to retaliate.
Another invisible force rushed into the night sky, stabilizing the violently trembling array formation and urging it to start operating.
The two forces clashed in the night sky, and the originally quiet night sky exploded with a rumble of thunder.
In the apartnt in the city center, Gu Shiyan suddenly opened his eyes in his sleep.
Hearing the rumbling thunder outside, he got up and walked to the window, raising his hand to pull open the curtains.
Looking at the lightning in the night sky outside and the bolts of lightning that were as thick as buckets striking down, an unusually strong thought suddenly surged in his mind.
He quickly turned around and took his phone, then dialed a number..
