Only, the Golden Crow before him was clearly a statue, like it was made of stone. Gu Xi still asked one more question.
"Alive. His soul has simply left his body."
The Golden Crow said it calmly.
"So you failed to communicate with him before?

Gu Xi cut himself off there, but he immediately continued, "It's fine. I have ways to draw its soul back."
Gu Xi was not wrong. Whether it was the Nether Spirit Flower or Death Mane, both could easily find a soul and drag it back.
It was just that such methods were somewhat rough. After being dragged back, part of the soul might be damaged.
