Qin Sheng, seated upright in his chair, slowly focused his pupils as clarity returned to his mind. Looking at the three people who had entered, he showed no surprise at all, only absolute respect in his expression.
"Master!" Qin Sheng rose to his feet and bowed to Lin Chuan and the other two.
"Get up," Lin Chuan said.
Kotoamatsukami had altered Qin Sheng's will in that brief span of time, making him absolutely obedient to Lin Chuan. Yet Qin Sheng was completely unable to notice that his will had been altered. That was the most terrifying aspect of Kotoamatsukami.
"Your Kotoamatsukami genjutsu is seriously terrifying. Every time I see it, it sends a chill down my spine!" Qin Lang said from the side.

Outside the room.
The moment Lin Chuan and the other two stepped out of the courtyard, they ran into Baili Chenle, who was approaching from the opposite direction.
"The three of you, we meet again," Baili Chenle said to Lin Chuan without the slightest surprise, clearly having known all along that they had entered
