Just as the danger reached a tipping point, a mouse passed by, scaring Qian Xue out of her wits. In her fright, she jumped and almost screamed. This disrupted her spell-casting, freeing Gu Fan and Su Hui from their immobilized state.
Seeing a golden opportunity, Gu Fan and Su Hui acted together, overpowering Qian Xue and pinning her to the ground.
Ning Qi, who was watching from the sideline, couldn't help but sigh and shake her head in disbelief. "Are you serious? This afraid of a mouse? Such an obvious weakness."
Gu Fan did not pay attention to Ning Qi, as he no longer saw her as a threat. He went straight towards the large, crimson flower bud, bent the stem downward, and broke open the bud. He carefully pulled Lin Xi out from inside.
"What should we do!" Ning Qi wanted to intervene, but she knew that she was no match for Gu Fan.
