After breakfast, Gu Zhiqi told Ye Lili to stay at the hotel, while she went to the Jiang Family with Gu Xiyue.
The two snuck into the Jiang Family, but they did not confront Jiang Xin directly, only found a spot to take a distant look at Jiang Xin.
When Gu Zhiqi saw Jiang Xin, she did not have any reaction.
However, after seeing the soul within Jiang Xin through the Illusion Pupil, Gu Zhiqi’s expression changed.
There were two souls in that body, and the one that did not resemble Jiang Xin’s physical appearance seed familiar to Gu Zhiqi, she felt she had seen it sowhere before.
But she couldn’t recall.
The head of the Jiang Family is also the city lord of Jiang City, so there are many Guard Army mbers around the Jiang Family.
Afraid of being discovered, Gu Zhiqi did not stay long at the Jiang Family.
After looking at Jiang Xin, the two left the Jiang Family.
Once outside, Gu Xiyue looked at Gu Zhiqi and asked, "How was it? Is there a problem?"
Gu Zhiqi nodded and said, "There is indeed a problem."
"There is an extra soul in that person’s body."
Upon hearing this, Gu Xiyue asked Gu Zhiqi, "Should we intervene?"
Gu Zhiqi shook her head, "We can’t intervene."
Gu Xiyue’s eyes showed a hint of curiosity, "Can’t intervene?"
Gu Zhiqi explained, "The two souls in that body have already started to rge, and the body’s original owner must have agreed to the rger. In such cases, it’s impossible to expel the extra soul."
"If we forcefully expel it, the body’s owner might be expelled as well, possibly leading to their soul’s destruction."
Gu Xiyue nodded after listening, then looked at Gu Zhiqi and asked, "So, we just leave it alone?"
Gu Zhiqi replied, "Leave it alone."
This matter is not her responsibility.
If Jiang Xin’s body was forcibly taken, she might have intervened, but given the current circumstances, she truly couldn’t intervene.
In the future, as long as Jiang Xin doesn’t do anything evil, she won’t intervene.
**
Gu Xiyue did not return to the hotel with Gu Zhiqi; instead, she took a taxi and left, claiming she had sothing to do in Yan City.
Thus, Gu Zhiqi returned alone.
When she got back to the hotel, it was nearly noon, and Gu Zhiqi bought two als before returning.
As she approached the room door, the door of the adjacent room opened.
Gu Zhiqi noticed the noise but didn’t pay much attention to it. She naturally did not turn her head to look, and instead, took out the room card from her pocket.
As the card touched the door, a familiar voice sounded by her ear.
"Child."
"Swish—"
The sound of the door being unlocked and that familiar voice sounded simultaneously.
Ignoring the door, Gu Zhiqi turned sideways, following the voice to look.
Seeing the person’s appearance clearly, Gu Zhiqi’s eyes revealed surprise, along with a faint hint of joy.
This person... wasn’t he in the Ancient Martial Arts World last night?
How is he appearing in Jiang City today?
"Brother, why are you here?" Gu Zhiqi was silent for a while before looking at Su Yunling and asking.
Su Yunling didn’t speak imdiately, but first stepped forward to Gu Zhiqi.
With a hand, he gently tousled the top of Gu Zhiqi’s head, and with a satisfied sigh, he looked at Gu Zhiqi and said, "I happened to have so business in Jiang City, so I ca to find you."
"What business?" Gu Zhiqi asked with a slight tilt of her head, looking at Su Yunling.
"Yesterday, people from Angel appeared in Jiang City and kidnapped soone. But when our people went to find them, the Angel mbers were all dead, and their electronic devices were taken away, and the kidnapped person was missing."
Hearing this, Gu Zhiqi’s expression beca a bit complex.
