The female demon soul froze, looking at Feng Qishi’s mocking expression. She felt like a complete fool. Clenching her fists, she declared, “Since you know, I’m not afraid of you either.”
“You go ahead,” Mu Anxiao stepped back.
The female demon soul frowned, confused.
Feng Qishi grinned, “We were wondering how to find you, and here you are so easily.” As he spoke, he raised his hand, emitting a blue light.
The female demon soul’s eyes widened. “No, she stole your things in her previous life, you…”
“As the wronged party, I’ve already let it go. What right do you have?” With that, Feng Qishi abruptly hurled the blue light in his hand.
The female demon soul quickly dodged it.
Mu Anxiao sighed, “Can you handle this?”
“I can,” Feng Qishi declared with conviction. He clenched and then spread his hands, charging towards the female demon soul.
The female demon soul scrambled to her feet and flew upwards.
Feng Qishi tilted his head back, watching the fleeing soul image of the female demon soul, and lowered his hands.
Mu Anxiao stepped forward, looking up at the female demon soul as she disappeared through the ceiling, and said, “I didn’t expect you to actually be capable.”
Feng Qishi dispersed the blue light in his hands, turned to face Mu Anxiao, and replied, “It’s all thanks to your teaching.”
“I was just speaking casually earlier, and I didn’t expect you to have memorized the secret so quickly. That’s impressive.”
“Your cooperation was excellent too,” Feng Qishi said, raising his palm.
Mu Anxiao deliberately turned her face away, saying, “You forgot.”
Seeing Mu Anxiao’s sudden awkward expression, Feng Qishi lowered his hand and said, “Alright, let’s go.”
“Let’s,” Mu Anxiao replied, stepping forward and passing directly through Feng Qishi’s body.
Feng Qishi leaned forward, “Can’t you just go around me?” he said, turning to point at Mu Anxiao’s retreating back.
Mu Anxiao tilted her head, deliberately moved to the front of the car, and stopped.
“Why did you stop?” Feng Qishi asked. Just as he was about to move forward, Feng Sen’s car passed through him.
Mu Anxiao sighed.
Feng Sen parked his car beside Mu Anxiao, rolled down the window, and said, “Perhaps I should pick you up later?”
“I know the way to your house,” Mu Anxiao said coldly.
“Then alright, we’ll wait for you,” Feng Sen said.
Mu Anxiao deliberately turned her face away.
Feng Sen glanced at Mu Anxiao’s expression, clearly unwilling to acknowledge him, and said, “I’m leaving.”
Mu Anxiao remained silent.
Feng Sen pouted, started the car, and drove away.
Feng Qishi stood in place, leaning down to look at his own body gradually regaining its substance, then tilted his head up and said, “Why didn’t you tell me?”
“You’re not human anyway,” Mu Anxiao glanced at Feng Qishi, then turned and walked towards the elevator.
Feng Qishi pouted and followed her.
In a blink of an eye, Mu Anxiao and Feng Qishi arrived outside Hu Yuan’s hospital room.
“You’re here,” Mu Anxiao said to Zhang Yan, glancing at the man in the yin messenger’s suit.
“What’s happening inside?” Feng Qishi asked, pointing at the closed door.
“Chihuahua and Scruffy are returning the soul essence from within them to Hu Yuan,” the man in the yin messenger’s suit said.
“Won’t they be in trouble?” Mu Anxiao worried.
“No, they already have their own demonic energy. That soul essence isn’t of much use within them,” the man in the yin messenger’s suit said calmly.
Hearing the man in the yin messenger’s suit, Mu Anxiao thought about herself, who lacked even spiritual energy, and her eyes dimmed.
Feng Qishi glanced at Mu Anxiao’s dejected expression and deliberately said, “If it weren’t for you, I really wouldn’t know how to use magic,” he said, then looked at Zhang Yan, “I just used magic to scare away the female demon soul.”
“He really went looking for you,” Zhang Yan ignored Feng Qishi and looked at Mu Anxiao.
Mu Anxiao nodded.
Feng Qishi curled his lips, looked at the closed door, and said, “The female demon soul, the wolf demon. Isn’t it that only the body’s owner can agree to possession? This…” he fell into thought.
Listening to Feng Qishi, Mu Anxiao temporarily put aside her own thoughts and asked, “What did you figure out?”
Feng Qishi gave a mysterious smile. “The answer will be revealed shortly.”
“You now…”
Mu Anxiao stopped speaking halfway when several passing hospital visitors cast peculiar glances at her.
Zhang Yan casually glanced at Mu Anxiao and deliberately said, “Who are you talking to?”
Hearing this, Mu Anxiao also swept her gaze across the hospital visitors who had passed her and looked back at Zhang Yan, “I’m talking to you. Why aren’t you responding to me?”
Upon hearing Mu Anxiao’s words, those few hospital visitors withdrew their gazes.
Zhang Yan let out a sigh of relief.
Mu Anxiao looked from side to side and lowered her voice, “You can’t say it now, can you?”
“No,” Feng Qishi affirmed.
Mu Anxiao gave Feng Qishi a roll of her eyes and said nothing more.
Inside Hu Yuan’s hospital room, the short demon and the big-headed fat demon had returned the soul essence from their bodies to Hu Yuan. Upon feeling it, Hu Yuan opened his eyes. “What are you doing?”
The big-headed fat demon and the short demon simultaneously withdrew their hands.
The short demon said, “Master, your soul has been restored.”
“Master, it’s good that you’re alive,” the big-headed fat demon smiled.
Hu Yuan propped himself up. “It wasn’t you. You didn’t kill anyone.”
Outside the hospital room, the man in the yin messenger’s suit pointed at the door. “Judging by the noise, it should be done.”
Zhang Yan glanced at the man in the yin messenger’s suit, reached out, opened the door, and walked in, saying directly, “They know.”
Hu Yuan blinked in surprise. “How do they know?”
“You personally handed over your body to that female demon, didn’t you?” Zhang Yan stopped at the foot of the bed.
Hu Yuan’s eyes darkened. “You found out.”
Feng Qishi looked at Mu Anxiao, then moved to Zhang Yan’s side and said, “Of course. If I guessed correctly, you took the blame because, firstly, of them, and secondly, because that female demon occupied your body. You believed that the female demon killing people with your body was also your fault, so you took all the blame.”
“How did you know?” Hu Yuan asked in astonishment.
“It’s something you can figure out with a little bit of thought. As for why, I won’t explain, but in short, this is what you mean, right?” Feng Qishi said nonchalantly.
Mu Anxiao glanced at Hu Yuan’s expression and moved to Feng Qishi’s side, saying, “I didn’t expect you to know quite so much.”
“Naturally,” Feng Qishi’s lips curved.
Mu Anxiao glared at Feng Qishi’s arrogant expression and remained silent.
Then, Hu Yuan asked, “Are they alright?” he asked, looking at the two still spirited individuals standing by the bed.
“They’re fine,” Feng Qishi replied.
“They’re not guilty anymore, are they?” Mu Anxiao asked urgently.
Upon hearing this, the big-headed fat demon quickly stepped forward and said to the man in the yin messenger’s suit, “I remember we committed murder. We confess. Please spare our master.”
The man in the yin messenger’s suit looked troubled.
Mu Anxiao glanced at him and said, “You’re afraid of arresting the wrong person, aren’t you?”
The man in the yin messenger’s suit was rendered speechless.
