Chapter 2404: The Search (4)
"Nothing noteworthy. He only asked me to keep an eye on Yun Qingluo." Guardian Jin was not too concerned as he shared what he could recall. "Miss Gu, sometimes the Devil King will leave his body behind to conduct an investigation. I believe this time is the same."
It did not sound right to Gu Xijiu, however. If Di Fuyi were going to take Yun Qingluo’s soul away, he would not choose a spot that was so far away from her. He should be sitting next to her. Doing so would make it easier for his men to guard the surrounding, as his body would become an easy target without his soul inside it. Di Fuyi would not do something so stupid in such a dangerous place. Had they fallen into some evil trick?
The trick must have been so carefully planned that even experienced warriors did not realize that these two people’s souls were taken away from their bodies. It was even more impressive since the escorts had never left Yun Qingluo alone the entire time.
Gu Xijiu wanted to ask them for more information, but she was distracted when Di Fuyi’s body suddenly trembled involuntarily. Cold sweat started to soak his robes. She grabbed his hand and was surprised by his burning palm.
"Miss Gu, Yun Qingluo seems to be in trouble! Her body is shaking violently. Also, her pulse is getting weaker!" Guardian Hua came reporting in a panicked state.
Their souls had indeed left their bodies together and were now caught in what they could only assume was a troubling situation. How complicated could the situation be that even Di Fuyi was unable to solve it?
Gu Xijiu tried to calm down, though her heart was still pounding in a surge of anxiety. It was not the time to find out how his soul left his body. Instead, she needed to know how to find them and save them.
Gu Xijiu used the Soul Tracking spell to start looking for the lost souls. She should be able to detect their location as long as they were still within the range of a thousand miles. However, both attempts failed miserably. Apparently, they must have been trapped in some wizardry barrier that was more than a thousand miles away.
