Rebirth: He refused to Divorce Again-Chapter 1429: Qiaoqiao’s Desperate Counterattack 8

However, the light here seemed even brighter than the sun outside, and much more pleasant. San Qi’s feelings were unknown, but Gu Qiaoqiao felt her whole body was clear, and yesterday’s stinging sensation had completely disappeared. The spiritual energy in her fingers seemed to resonate with the spiritual energy on the Ruyi Ball. Originally, Gu Qiaoqiao’s hand was clenched, but at that moment, she thought for a moment and then let go.

She allowed the spiritual energy in her fingers to smoothly contact, merge, and communicate with the spiritual energy on the Ruyi Ball. Suddenly, Gu Qiaoqiao felt as if she had ascended to a new level.

The sensation was marvelous and indescribable; no words could seem to capture it. Only the person involved could truly understand.

At this time, San Qi’s eyes were fixed on the Ruyi Ball, completely unaware of Gu Qiaoqiao’s transformation. Had he looked closely, he would have been amazed to find that a faint glow seemed to be surrounding Gu Qiaoqiao, identical to the glow on the Ruyi Ball.

An hour passed, and Yubao Square seemed to have been enchanted, with half of its items indeed restored to their original state.

No wonder San Qi was adamant about not letting others come; the power of this Ruyi Ball was truly immense.

If she hadn’t seen it with her own eyes, Gu Qiaoqiao would never have believed that such a small ball could achieve this level of restoration.

At this moment, the talismans surrounding the Ruyi Ball had disappeared. As San Qi hurried forward to pick up the Ruyi Ball, suddenly, it unexpectedly wobbled and flew up from a wooden shelf on the counter, floating in mid-air. San Qi was taken aback, and before he could react, the Ruyi Ball wobbled and flew towards Gu Qiaoqiao.

Gu Qiaoqiao wasn’t far from San Qi, so in almost the blink of an eye, the Ruyi Ball was in front of her, suspended in mid-air at eye level. Gu Qiaoqiao was momentarily stunned and didn’t react, while San Qi was in shock and quickly ran over to grab the Ruyi Ball. Unfortunately, the Ruyi Ball seemed to know he was coming and plunged into Gu Qiaoqiao’s arms, and she instinctively reached out to embrace it.

At that moment, the glow surrounding Gu Qiaoqiao gradually disappeared, and soon after, a colorful radiance emanated from the surface of the Ruyi Ball, enveloping Gu Qiaoqiao entirely.

Gu Qiaoqiao gently exhaled. When her fingers grasped the Ruyi Ball, an indescribable familiarity arose, as if this had been something she lost long ago and now it had returned to its rightful owner.

In fact, Gu Qiaoqiao’s mind was blank; everything was a reaction of instinct.

She hadn’t expected such an event to occur.

San Qi could no longer control himself and reached for the Ruyi Ball in Gu Qiaoqiao’s arms. At this moment, the Ruyi Ball suddenly shone brightly, and an invisible barrier bounced San Qi aside.

The force was so strong that San Qi, caught off guard, stumbled back several steps and then fell to the ground on his backside. His face went pale, and his lips trembled as he stared blankly at the Ruyi Ball. What was happening? Why did the Ruyi Ball suddenly attack him?

He had grown up with the Ruyi Ball, forming a close bond with it, unlike Ba Jiao. Despite the master owning this treasure, there were too many tasks related to the Ruyi Ball for the master to handle, so San Qi took on some of the responsibilities.

Due to years of association, he could communicate with the Ruyi Ball and even use it effortlessly.

Today, the Ruyi Ball acted as if it didn’t recognize him, suddenly turning hostile. What was happening?

The sight he had just witnessed, the Ruyi Ball flying in mid-air on its own, was something he had never seen before.

A terrifying thought arose in San Qi’s mind, occupying his every thought.

Could it be that Gu Qiaoqiao is the true owner of the Ruyi Ball?

At this moment, Gu Qiaoqiao still had her fingers on the Ruyi Ball. She once again confirmed that the material of the Ruyi Ball was identical to that of the White Jade Stone. Gu Qiaoqiao’s brow furrowed tightly; the Ruyi Ball came from a distant place, so how could it be the same as the White Jade Stone?

Were they once part of the same entity?

Or was the Ruyi Ball once owned by the Gu Family Ancestor?

Thinking of this, Gu Qiaoqiao’s heart grew heavy, and she looked sharply at San Qi, who was sitting on the ground.

Gu Qiaoqiao slowly spoke, "What exactly is going on here?"

At this moment, San Qi felt a bit desperate. He never anticipated such an outcome from his journey to the Central Plains. Ouyang Rong’s fate was unknown, and now the Ruyi Ball had fallen into the hands of his adversary. His face turned ashen, and he had no idea how to respond to Gu Qiaoqiao’s question; he simply had no idea what was happening.

But the pressing matter now was to retrieve the Ruyi Ball. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

San Qi slowly stood up, speaking earnestly, "Miss Gu, I’ve fulfilled my promises to you. I don’t know why the Ruyi Ball flew to you, but it belongs to my family’s master. I hope you can return it to me."

Gu Qiaoqiao’s mind raced; even though the Ruyi Ball felt close to her, it truly wasn’t hers at this moment.

Could she claim it as her own?

Could she safely keep it?

It seemed unlikely. The crisis with the Gu family hadn’t been resolved, and she didn’t know what kind of person the Sect Leader was. She couldn’t take such a risk.

In a flash, Gu Qiaoqiao comprehended the essential point, but she remained silent. The Ruyi Ball in her hands seemed to have reached its peak state, resonating closely with Gu Qiaoqiao. Even from a dozen or so steps away, San Qi could sense the Ruyi Ball’s joyful aura.

This realization crushed San Qi’s heart. He understood the fact that the Ruyi Ball no longer wished to be with him.

San Qi no longer cared about pride; retrieving the Ruyi Ball was now the top priority. He suddenly knelt on the ground with a thud, speaking sincerely, "Miss Gu, please return the Ruyi Ball to me. Without it, my life and my family’s lives are at risk."

Gu Qiaoqiao looked steadily at San Qi, her red lips parting slightly as she calmly spoke, "What does your life and your family’s lives have to do with me?"

San Qi was taken aback. Indeed, in their current adversarial relationship, his life and his family’s lives had nothing to do with Gu Qiaoqiao.
