Even She Was Fooled

"I said I would be fine. Why did you take off the Night Lotus?" Feng Qingtian roared, his face full of fury.

His emotions were in extreme turmoil.

Was Nan Ningxin going to die?

"It's fine, as long as you're okay. I'm… alright." Nan Ningxin seemed too weak to even breathe now.

"Will she die?" Gu Bailu asked Gu Yunjing anxiously.

She wanted Nan Ningxin to die, but not yet.

"If nobody helps her, she will. Her soul is embedded in the Night Lotus. By taking off the Night Lotus, she took off her soul."

"What's the Night Lotus?" Gu Bailu asked in confusion.

"It's an artifact that is contracted to the soul. It can bear any harm dealt to the person wearing it. It's the most precious life-saving artifact in the world."

"So, even if I want Nan Ningxin to die, I can't kill her at all."

"Yes. That's why Prince Zi only watched the fight between you and Nan Ningxin in the Murong family's house."
