The fox spirit remnant inside the Soul Gathering Charm wailed loudly, cursing Xiaosuisui for her ruthlessness!
Upon hearing this, Xiaosuisui was furious. She crossed her arms, her beautiful, large black eyes glaring at the Soul Gathering Charm floating in mid-air as she said in a fiercely cute tone,
"Stop your nonsense, or I swear I’ll turn up the heat and turn you into ashes instantly!"
"No, no, no! I’ll shut up, I’ll stop! Can you please put out the fire?"
The little fox begged repeatedly for rcy, its screams from within the Soul Gathering Charm growing more piercing. "AH... IT BURNS... I’M BEING BURNED TO DEATH! AH... DON’T BURN ... PLEASE STOP... IT HURTS..."
Listening to the screams from inside the Soul Gathering Charm, Xiaosuisui said coldly,
"Tell , how exactly can my Seventh Uncle get out?
If you don’t tell , I’ll make sure you die right in front of my Seventh Uncle!"
"Stop burning, stop burning! I’ll talk, I’ll talk! Will that be enough?"
"You speak first. As soon as my Seventh Uncle is saved, I’ll stop imdiately!"
"Alright! I’ll tell you. I am the Array Eye of this Illusion Array. It will be enough as long as I no longer forcibly keep him in the Illusion Array."
"It’s that simple?"
"Of course not. I can only retrieve a fox hair attached to him and dismantle the array’s chanism for forcibly retaining his Divine Soul. This way, his Divine Soul will regain its self-awareness, but..."
When the little fox said this, it suddenly sounded hesitant.
"But what? Hurry up and say it!"
"However, if he wants to leave this Illusion Array, he must rely on his own ntal fortitude to overco the world within the Illusory Realm. He can only leave once he realizes that everything here is false."
"Then why haven’t you quickly removed the fox hair attached to my Seventh Uncle? Believe , I can intensify the flas right now, giving you no ti to retrieve that fox hair!"
"I’ll retrieve it, I’ll retrieve it! Please stop burning , I beg you! I’m already at my limit!"
Xiaosuisui saw a fine strand of hair fly away from Ji Youzhi. Only then did she extinguish the flas on the Soul Gathering Charm and walk over to Ji Youzhi, who was being supported by the two young n.
At this mont, when Ji Youzhi saw her, his eyes were no longer vacant as before; they now held a spark of awareness.
Xiaosuisui waved her hand in front of his eyes and asked softly,
"Seventh Uncle! Can... can you see ?"
The vacant look in Ji Youzhi’s eyes was replaced by a confused murmur.
"Where is this?
Why... why can’t I even walk?"
Hearing Ji Youzhi’s confused muttering, Xiaosuisui suddenly grew excited and quickly tugged at the hem of his clothes.
This ti, she actually grasped sothing solid. This confird that her previous inability to touch Ji Youzhi was indeed because of the Illusory Fox’s hair.
"Seventh Uncle! Can you see ?"
Seventh Uncle? Ji Youzhi frowned in confusion and murmured to himself,
"I always rember having a sister, and my sister had a child who always joyfully called Seventh Uncle.
But they all say I’m mistaken, that my sister is dead and her child died young.
They say there’s sothing wrong with my mory!"
As soon as Ji Youzhi finished speaking, the two young n supporting him said in unison,
"Dad, you are indeed mistaken. Aunt passed away long ago, and her daughter truly did die young."
Xiaosuisui tilted her head, looking at these ’children’ of Ji Youzhi. Sothing feels off!
"Little fox, what’s the deal with these four people? Did you conjure them?"
"That’s right. They were manifested from my fox hairs!"
Xiaosuisui was so furious she felt like eating deep-fried fox!
"Retract your fox hairs, or I’ll roast you!"
Xiaosuisui was nacing, a subtle but distinct ruthlessness emanating from her.
If the little fox hadn’t experienced the agony of being burned, it certainly wouldn’t have been frightened by her threat now.
"HEH HEH... I... I’ll retract them right now!"
As soon as it spoke, a gust of wind blew, and the four people beside Ji Youzhi transford into four fox hairs and flew away.
Xiaosuisui casually made a grabbing motion in the air, and the four fox hairs landed in her palm.
"HEY, HEY, HEY! My hairs! Give them back to ! Quick, give them back!"
"You’ve already fallen into my hands. What in this world still belongs to you? I’m warning you: if anything happens to my Seventh Uncle here, you can forget about keeping your life."
"This little girl is quite ruthless! Don’t worry. Your Seventh Uncle has no romantic feelings for Xie Pan’Er. Now that I’ve retracted the fox hairs, he can overco everything in the Illusion Array with his own willpower."
Xiaosuisui ignored it. She watched as Ji Youzhi slowly walked out of the room and then stared up at the sky.
She knew that her Seventh Uncle must be filled with doubt about this world at this mont. So, she brought her index and middle fingers together. A ray of golden light shot from them into the space between Ji Youzhi’s eyebrows. Ji Youzhi slowly closed his eyes, his mind instantly becoming clear. Then, everything around them shattered into fine powder in an instant, vanishing into dust.
Xiaosuisui slowly let out a breath of relief. When she opened her eyes again, she was back in the Array of Heaven. Looking around, she saw Dahei and Xiaobai still struggling intensely, presumably because certain things in the Illusion Array were preventing them from seeing clearly into their own hearts.
However, Xiaosuisui did not intend to let them continue. The longer it went on, the less likely they were to awaken. A strand of golden light from her hand entered the space between Xiaobai’s eyebrows, and another strand entered the space between Dahei’s eyebrows.
Dahei and Xiaobai collapsed to the ground at a visible rate and fell into a deep sleep.
"HEY, HEY, HEY! Forcibly interrupting their trial in the Illusory Realm like this violates the Celestial Dao, don’t you know?
This is very bad for them!"
Inside the Soul Gathering Charm, the little fox shrieked.
"It’s bad for *you*, isn’t it?
For every mont they remain in the Illusion Array, you absorb a portion of them. Once they die, you can absorb everything from them, including their mories!"
"This... this... how does a re baby like you know all this?
Who in the world are you?"
