Zuo Zongnian and the others couldn’t understand, but Qin Liuxi imdiately saw that soone was forcibly pulling back Zuo Zongjun’s soul, resulting in a tug-of-war-like action.
Qin Liuxi quickly ford a mantra with her hands and sent a skill onto Zuo Zongjun’s soul body, murmuring the Incense Blessing Spell: "The Dao is learned from the heart, the heart transmits the incense... I petition the minister to report, directly reaching the Nine Heavens, I ask Lord Zuo to bind the soul without dispersing, ghosts and demons forget their form, decree!"
As soon as the spell was cast, it was as if an invisible rope bound Zuo Zongjun’s soul, the other end entwined around Qin Liuxi’s wrist. With a sudden force, she pulled him over.
On the other end of the tug-o-war, it was as if the action paused, then intensified, a stream of Spiritual Energy fell on the rope, attempting to sever the soul-binding rope.
Feeling the Spiritual Energy, Qin Liuxi was sowhat surprised, she pulled again, forming a mantra with one hand, chanting the Golden Light Divine Spell, sending it onto the Spiritual Energy trying to break the rope: "Heaven and Earth Xuan Sect, Root of All Qi, the body possesses golden light, reflecting upon myself... I invoke Lord Lao Zi of the Great Monad urgently as decreed, command!"
The Golden Light Divine Spell advocates protecting the body with Inner Refining Golden Light Primordial Spirit, subduing demons and guarding the Dao, with wide-ranging uses and formidable power. She didn’t know what was opposing her, but with the Divine Spell guarding the body during spell casting, her Taoist Body was strong and naturally inflicted a loss on the opponent.
Sure enough, Qin Liuxi’s counterattack made the opponent suffer a backlash, the pulling sensation disappeared instantly, and Zuo Zongjun stood steadily.
"What, what’s going on?" Zuo Zongnian, a big man, turned pale with fright.
Qin Liuxi stepped forward and asked, "No nonsense, where are you trapped now? Quickly return once you finish speaking."
Zuo Zongjun wasn’t dead, rather his living soul was summoned back, making him unfit to be away from his physical body for too long. Otherwise, a soul departure lasting too long without the physical body being protected easily leads to death, and then the living soul becos a wandering ghost, without a Ghost ssenger to lead after death. There’s no one to find you.
A living soul is similar, unaware, when it’s not yet ti for it on the Book of Life and Death, no one will specially lead you to the Yellow Spring, so naturally, you wander.
Zuo Zongjun said, "It’s my hairpin, the one from the Jade Pavilion, I’m in the sa place as it... ah."
A phantom appeared, yanking Zuo Zongjun by the wrist towards the sky, scolding, "Co with , unless you don’t want your physical body."
"Who are you?" Qin Liuxi asked, looking at the shadow.
It was a spoiled young woman dressed in moonlight white, her aura wasn’t like typical ghosts but carried a faint clear and gentle Spiritual Energy. She glared at Qin Liuxi, her expression was very resentful, seemingly angry about losing the fight with Qin Liuxi.
"You’re so good at fighting , why don’t you guess!" she said and attempted to flee.
Qin Liuxi ford a mantra with both hands and struck out, binding the two together.
Want to leave, did she permit it?
"Let us go. Do you want to kill Brother Jun?" the woman struggled angrily.
"Aren’t you the one trapping him and trying to harm him?" Qin Liuxi said blandly.
The woman paused: "I’m not. We’re a couple made for each other, we’ll be very happy."
Zuo Zongjun was almost crying, "I have a fiancée, I don’t know you, what you think is false, unreal, it’s all your imagination."
"Shut up!" the woman shouted at him.
Simultaneously, Qin Liuxi coolly interjected, "Your fiancée’s family just ca to cancel the engagent."
Ah?
The woman’s eyes sparkled, "Canceled the engagent?"
Zuo Zongjun was utterly dumbfounded, "How did the engagent get canceled?"
"You should ask your father," Qin Liuxi glanced at the dazed Lord Zuo, "I guess he grew grass on his head, right?"
Everyone: "?"
Lord Zuo revived, what the hell is happening here?
Clap clap clap.
The woman arrogantly clapped her hands, saying "As I said, only I truly love you, she doesn’t deserve you. Look, she turned you into a joke!"
Zuo Zongjun: "..."
Shut up, will you!
"When will you finally let him co back? He is a person, can’t be trapped indefinitely in your fantasies," Qin Liuxi said to the woman, "A spirit needs strong Spiritual Power and its own consciousness to support the scene you imagined. Over ti, you’ll beco weaker until you disappear or fall into a deep sleep."
Yes, a spirit.
This woman in front of them wasn’t so evil spirit or demon but a spirit, possibly generated from the essence of heaven and earth, or perhaps an Artifact Spirit.
Based on Zuo Zongjun’s previous words, Qin Liuxi guessed it was the latter, the Artifact Spirit of that hairpin.
The woman was sowhat surprised, "You know what I am?"
The crowd: that’s insulting oneself unknowingly!
"I know roughly, it’s a guess."
"You’re quite formidable," the woman blinked her big, round eyes, "Certainly, you could strike down."
Qin Liuxi raised her eyes, saying, "If you remain stubborn, I can destroy the spirit. But you love your Brother Jun so much, you wouldn’t trap him indefinitely, right? Otherwise, if he were trapped in your imaginary space for long, when you can’t hold on and the space collapses and disappears, he would disappear too. Since you love him so much, how could you bear to hurt him?"
Misled by Qin Liuxi’s words, the woman tilted her head and said, "Of course not, otherwise why would I be struggling to save him?"
"Right, you’ve struggled to save him, you definitely wouldn’t want him dead, otherwise your efforts would be wasted."
The woman nodded repeatedly: "Certainly."
The crowd was sowhat amazed, watching Qin Liuxi deceive with great expertise, strangely feeling sympathy for this unknown spirit, this was a definite swindle!
"Now, shouldn’t you let him go?" Qin Liuxi said, "In your space ford from Spiritual Power and consciousness, although he’s alive, it’s still false, and he is ultimately just a mortal who eats grains, it’s been almost half a year since he disappeared, surely he shouldn’t be continually eating the illusion created by the world’s pure energy, right?"
Zuo Zongjun was dazed, world’s pure energy, in this half year he ate and drank, it was all food, but is it all fake?
The woman was sowhat uncertain, saying "I..."
"Mortals aren’t spirits, nor are they cultivators, they can’t fast for long periods, believe it or not, if you release him, he’ll beco a skinny wraith-like paper figure, like this?" Qin Liuxi picked up the paper figure from Lord Zuo’s hand and waved it.
Zuo Zongjun glanced, then looked at his pale hand, shivering, couldn’t be, right?
The woman seed to be contemplating.
"His mother is also gravely ill due to his absence, once she passes away, Zuo Zongjun will surely hate you thoroughly. Do you really want him to hate you? You like him so much!"
Zuo Zongjun’s heart imdiately tightened, "My mother is gravely ill? You..."
The woman looked up, seeing his red eyes filled with so resentnt, feeling sowhat aggrieved, saying "I just wanted to spend more ti with him... alright, I’ll release him, but you must find that hairpin, I’m an Artifact Spirit, once the space collapses, I will just return to the hairpin, and he can only go with ."
In other words, wherever the hairpin is, that’s where he appears.
