Fairy Lingyue's voice soon rang out in Xu Taiping's mind-"I've already had him release the Branch-Folding Power. See whether anything unusual has happened to those Sword Inquiry Cultivators."
Once the Branch-Folding Power was released, the divine souls of the Sword Inquiry Cultivators it had controlled would return to their bodies.
Xu Taiping nodded, casually casting his gaze below the platform.
Among the group of Sword Inquiry Cultivators who had been waiting there, quite a few had now fallen unconscious in their seats.
The few who remained awake looked around in bewilderment, as though just waking from a long dream.
At the sight, Xu Taiping immediately transmitted his voice to Fairy Lingyue:
"Sister Lingyue, the Branch-Folding Power should have been released."
Soon, Fairy Lingyue's voice rang out in his mind again-
"I've already subdued Su Chan, but something about him seems strange. Don't mention this to your Sect Master or the Prefect of the Nine Prefectures and the others for now. I'll let you know after I've checked."
Hearing this, Xu Taiping frowned slightly, an extremely bad premonition welling up in his heart for no apparent reason.
He murmured:
"Let's hope nothing else goes wrong."
To him, as long as Su Chan remained alive, there would always be uncertainties.
Taibai Street, Liuxian Town.
It was still that same shabby tea stall.
Su Chan stared fixedly at Xu Taiping in the Spirit Mirror and said with a bitter smile:
"A mortal bone. To think he was a mortal bone."
At this, he shook his head, drained his cup of tea, then heaved a long sigh.
"It seems this move of mine was wrong from the very start."
Fairy Lingyue smiled.
"I told you long ago: all the schemes and calculations in this world cannot stand against a sincere heart."
