Gu Chun had long since adapted to his new identity, but the calm and collected demeanor of the two people in front of him still made him feel relieved.

He had a face as cold and hard-hearted as Yuan Daotong, but in reality, his personality could be described as honest and simple. He was not good at socializing, nor was he good at refusing others.

So there are often times when I'm exhausted from dealing with other people's curiosity, but luckily the two people in front of me didn't keep asking.

Gu Chun said, "Actually, I want to ask you for a favor."

Tell me about it.

Gu Chun glanced at Ji Fu, who was swinging his arms to the side, and finally showed a hint of expression on his usually expressionless face. "It's about Ji Fu."

Ji Fu seemed indifferent, only preoccupied with fiddling with his long hair.

Gu Chun slapped him hard on the back from behind, "Be serious!"

Ji Fu was suddenly criticized, and a look of grievance appeared on his face. He slowly moved and sat up straight.

“Ji Fu has been separated from his original body for too long. Although he is constantly absorbing spiritual energy, it cannot compensate for the loss. Now that the spiritual energy is becoming increasingly thin, Ji Fu cannot hold on for much longer.”

"Will the spirit return to the artifact even after losing its spiritual power?" Jiang Yixing asked.

“Ji Fu’s situation is different. His connection with his original body seems to have been severed. If he cannot sustain the consumption of his body, he will simply disappear into the world.”

Jiang Yixing recalled the examples he had seen, and there really wasn't one like Ji Fu.

"Can't find the reason?"

Gu Chun nodded. "We've searched almost everywhere, but we just can't find it."

In most cases, such situations are deliberately concealed.

Jiang Yixing made a calculation with her fingers, but was suddenly disturbed by an invisible factor. Although divination was not her forte, she was still considered one of the best in her sect.

Jiang Yixing lowered her gaze; a magical artifact capable of interfering with her perception…

It seems that there are still many good things hidden in modern times.

Rong Hang noticed a faint thread of cause and effect. "Are you alright?"

"Don't worry," Jiang Yixing smiled at Rong Hang, then turned to Gu Chun, "This matter is quite interesting."

"How much longer can it last?"

"At most ten years," Ji Fu said, without a trace of worry for himself on his face.

Jiang Yixing and Rong Hang confirmed their ideas, then Gu Chun and Ji Fu said, "We'll help you find your original body, and you help us find the magical artifact that connects the two worlds."

Gu Chun suddenly said, "I suspect that Ji Fu's true form is the magical artifact you are looking for."

Rong Hang agreed with his judgment. Having once stepped into the realm of fusion, he knew very well how difficult it was to break the barriers between different worlds.

Where human effort is insufficient, external aids must be used.

However, he didn't show it on his face, and only asked, "Why?"

“A month ago, I sensed a sudden fluctuation in Ji Fu’s body. He himself was fine, so it must be something wrong with his physical body.”

Jiang Yixing and Rong Hang exchanged a glance. A little over a month ago, it was the time when Jiang Yixing had just returned.

"Then it seems we have the same goal."

Gu Chun nodded.

"Then I'll have to trouble you two more times in the future."

"It's alright, just pay salaries as usual," Jiang Yixing said with a smile.

Gu Chun paused for a moment, then said seriously, "Don't worry, we have dedicated accounting staff, and salaries will be deposited into our accounts on the 10th of each month."

Jiang Yixing chuckled. Gu Chun really was completely different from his father in personality.

"There's one more thing I might need to trouble you two with." Gu Chun pushed two documents over.

Jiang Yixing flipped through it briefly. It was a thick book with the cover titled "Mid-Year Exchange Conference of the Alliance." The entire book was filled with introductions of the attendees, each with a long resume.

"This is a recently held forum. I wonder if you have time to attend?"

Jiang Yixing didn't care; he was just doing his job for money, and it was just a simple exchange anyway. Rong Hang, however, thoroughly loathed these meetings, which always reminded him of those annoying philosophical discussions he used to attend.

Jiang Yixing noticed Rong Hang's slight frown. "Don't you want to go?"

Then, with a hint of regret, she sighed, "If you don't want to go, then don't go. But I thought I could stay here for a few more days."

Rong Hang took a closer look and saw that the meeting was in three days, which meant they could still have several more days to play here.

Rong Hang's eyes lit up, and he changed his tune, "I really want to go."

"ah?"

"Try to go and have a look around when you have time. You've never been here before." Rong Hang clearly has a pair of fox-like eyes, but when he needs something from you, they become watery and irresistible.

"Sure... sure." Jiang Yixing refused to admit that she had been blinded by beauty and agreed involuntarily.

Gu Tianchun was naturally a bit dim-witted and completely oblivious to Rong Hang's sudden change in expression. He was only thinking about fulfilling his duty as a host: "Shall I arrange for someone to show you around?"

Ji Fu was immature and only thought about playing: "Then I'll go play with you guys too."

As soon as the two finished speaking, Rong Hang's expression turned gloomy, his face darkening instantly.

"Need not."

"Huh? Let's play together! Together! Together!" Ji Fu wished he could come over and grab Rong Hang's sleeve and pull him around.

But Rong Hang wasn't like Gu Chun. He didn't give a friendly look to anyone other than Jiang Yixing. He said coldly, "No."

Ji Fu seemed startled and silently sat back down next to Gu Chun.
