Rebirth: He refused to Divorce Again-Chapter 1428: Qiaoqiao’s Death-Defying Counterattack 7

It’s not that Gu Qiaoqiao is conceited. If this Sect Leader truly possessed earth-shattering skills, he wouldn’t be staying in this world; he’d probably have ventured into another realm.

Don’t ask Gu Qiaoqiao how she knows; she just has this thought in her heart that this world’s Mystic Sect hasn’t actually waned or disappeared. Many powerful beings likely left here for another dimension. Aren’t they all tirelessly cultivating for this purpose? It’s akin to the ancient pursuit of immortality, ascending to the heavens to become a god.

"Miss Gu, the consequences are something you can’t afford." San Qi tried to threaten Gu Qiaoqiao.

"San Qi, for now, you should consider how to deal with the consequences of Ouyang Rong’s death. You don’t need to worry about anything else." Gu Qiaoqiao warned.

San Qi was suddenly stunned. Gu Qiaoqiao’s words hit his vulnerable spot. He’s not alone; he has a wife, two adorable daughters, and a son who is just two years old. They all live on an island. If something really happened to Ouyang Rong, setting aside the Qin Family and Gu Family, his entire family might not survive. Thinking of his fair-skinned son who always greeted him with a smile, San Qi felt all his momentum vanish.

He gritted his teeth, held the box tightly in his arms, and finally said, "You can follow inside."

Gu Qiaoqiao wanted to follow inside to see what this so-called Ruyi Ball was all about.

Now seeing San Qi finally agreed, she said to Qin Yize and Zhang Yi who hadn’t spoken but were standing nearby, "Uncle Zhang, Ah Ze, guard the entrance; don’t let anyone else inside."

Qin Yize nodded. San Qi, clutching the box, was the first to walk inside, followed by Gu Qiaoqiao.

Qin Yize closed the door at the entrance.

Zhang Yi, having overheard the conversation between the two earlier, was utterly baffled. He knew it wasn’t the time for questions, but he had something to ask, "Shouldn’t we let the Old Patriarch in if he arrives?"

Qin Yize thought for a moment and shook his head, saying, "Since Qiaoqiao said not to let anyone in, she must have her reasons. You keep the Old Patriarch company; I’ll stay here and watch."

Zhang Yi nodded, "Alright, you stay here then. I’ll go keep the Old Patriarch company."

Then Zhang Yi quickly made his way towards the backyard.

Yubao Square is vast, with a storefront at the front and a yard at the back. It has everything one might need, even a small garden. The feng shui here is excellent, feeling warm in winter and cool in summer.

The Old Patriarch finds it as comfortable here as at home.

As for the affairs of Yubao Square, they are temporarily left to Gu Qiaoqiao. Trust this girl; she’ll definitely handle things well.

Zhang Yi thought, hasn’t the Old Patriarch already let go?

Meanwhile, in the hall of Yubao Square, San Qi stands in one spot, placing the box he holds onto a red sandalwood Duobao Pavilion shelf. He has no choice. He quickly opens the box, and although Gu Qiaoqiao isn’t very close, she can see clearly from a few steps away, immediately noticing the spherical object inside the box.

Gu Qiaoqiao was startled the moment she saw the object. This must be the Ruyi Ball, but why does it feel so similar in material to the stone Qin Yize found?

San Qi glanced at Gu Qiaoqiao, noticing she hadn’t come very close, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He was worried that Gu Qiaoqiao might turn hostile and try to seize what was in his hands.

They put in so much effort, thinking they had uncovered all the truths, feeling smug, believing the Central Plains people were nothing much.

But today they realized what they knew was just a fraction, especially when it comes to Gu Qiaoqiao; she’s truly unfathomable.

Which is why they have to be wary of Gu Qiaoqiao.

San Qi looked towards the Ruyi Ball and suddenly noticed that the dim light on it seemed to be gradually recovering. He was extremely surprised. Pressing his index finger and thumb together, he rubbed them hard, and realized how pure the spiritual energy here was.

It seemed that this Ruyi Ball particularly favored Yubao Square, whereas the courtyard he currently resided in had a significant impact on the Ruyi Ball. To describe it, one was heaven, the other hell.

What’s really going on here?

Though it was just a morning, San Qi felt as if a century had passed.

He watched the flowing radiance on the Ruyi Ball, then recited a few incantations, flicking his fingers. Several beams of light fell on the Ruyi Ball, then disappeared. He placed the Ruyi Ball on the counter displaying the jade bracelet and jade pendant.

He then stepped back a few paces, quietly observing.

Gu Qiaoqiao remained still too, staring at the Ruyi Ball without blinking.

For some reason, she didn’t feel any dislike toward the object. Instead, she felt a faint sense of closeness.

Clearly, this thing is the culprit, almost ruining Yubao Square.

Different from the reaction when it was above Ouyang Rong’s head earlier, the Ruyi Ball now suddenly performed as it should. Then Gu Qiaoqiao, in shock, discovered the jade bracelet and jade pendant under the cover of its light were connecting at a visibly rapid pace.

Gu Qiaoqiao’s eyes lit up with fervent excitement; truly, this is a precious treasure! The world is vast, no wonder people say there are always higher mountains and greater individuals.

She had her eyes opened today, gaining insight into the truth that there are indeed things that defy nature; the Ruyi Ball before her is one such thing.

San Qi was equally astonished. His feelings were strange too, sensing that the brilliance of the Ruyi Ball seemed even more radiant here than on the island. Could Yubao Square be a feng shui treasure trove imbued with spiritual energy of heaven and earth?

That can’t be right. Places like this surrounded by tall buildings, crowded shops, and the hustle and bustle surely would disrupt the feng shui spiritual energy. How could such purity be maintained?

So what’s really happening here?

San Qi pondered silently in his heart.

Though his earlier worries have dissipated, he’s considering whether to take the Ruyi Ball back and try again; perhaps it could even save Ouyang Rong’s life, you never know.

Yet now that the Ruyi Ball has started functioning, he cannot forcibly stop it; doing so would lead to backlash. He must proceed according to the set program involving talismans and rituals.

Yubao Square’s hall was very quiet; the lights were all on indoors. Despite the bright sunshine outside, due to the closely fitted iron grill, only a sliver of sunlight seeped through, having no effect at all.
