Instead of the expected gasps, Xu Qi poked his head out again, only to be met with puzzled looks from the crowd.

Even Ji Qian looked completely bewildered, clearly having long forgotten the knowledge she had learned in the Taoist temple.

Xu Qi had no choice but to resign himself to his fate and explain again:

"Actually, to be precise, Ji Qian doesn't actually have the ability to see ghosts."

"ah?"

Upon hearing this, not only the others, but even Ji Qian herself exclaimed in surprise.

"So you didn't listen to a single word of Master's lessons back then!"

Seeing Ji Qian's surprised expression, Xu Qi couldn't help but make a sarcastic remark before continuing:

“Ji Qian can see not only ghosts, but also all things that are ‘not of this world’. If we have to categorize them, they should be considered a kind of third eye.”

"As for these glasses,"

Xu Qi took off his glasses and gestured to the crowd:

"This thing has a similar effect to ox tears. At most, it can make you see ghosts that are willing to show themselves. In terms of practicality, it probably can't even compare to a sight-enhancing talisman."

Seeing that everyone finally understood his words, Xu Qi turned to look at Ji Qian:

"Your eye color has started to lighten."

At this rate, your eyes will be back to their peak condition in less than half a month.

At this point, Xu Qi seemed to suddenly remember something. He looked at Ji Qian, his tone filled with barely concealed schadenfreude:

"I remember, you used to be able to see through things, right?"

Ji Qian remained silent, as Xu Qi's words reminded her of those unbearable years that were hard to look back on.

God knows how much psychological trauma the fact that she saw naked people every day caused her when she was young!

Wait, Xu Qi, how did you know about this? Could it be...?

Waaaaah, my Qiqi is unclean now!

On the bright side, they were childhood friends, and maybe Xu Qi was still young back then.

[The person above should clarify which aspect is being referred to as 'small'.]

Anyone doing anything lewd, get out!

If I could have this skill, I would be willing to marry Xu Qi.

You're unwilling to suffer even the slightest loss!

X-ray vision—the dream skill for all people of Asian descent.

[Glossary: ​​Yellow race - the kind of person who engages in pornography]

Ji Qian didn't want to pay attention to Xu Qi, so she turned to look at the others, only to see faces full of wariness.

Even Han Mengyao felt that her hands hanging by her sides were restless, ready to be raised at any moment to cover certain key parts.

"...You don't need to be so nervous, X-ray vision is not a passive skill."

Ji Qian was telling the truth. Back then, in order to stop seeing "buttocks everywhere she looked," she had put in a lot of hard work to learn.

Unfortunately, Ji Qian had no talent for cultivation, and in the end she only managed to barely learn to control her X-ray vision. Her passive skill of having yin-yang eyes still had to be sealed off.

"It's okay, Qianqian, I believe in you."

Seeing that Ji Qian looked unwell, Han Mengyao kindly offered words of comfort.

As Han Mengyao spoke, her arms unconsciously tightened around her clothes, and Ji Qian felt like she was in a situation she couldn't clear her name even if she jumped into the Yellow River!

Xu Qi, the one who started all of this, was busy adjusting the rope around his waist.

Ji Qian noticed the unusual movement around her waist, so she looked down to check and discovered that Xu Qi had taken advantage of everyone's stunned moment to hang himself on her waist again!

Facing Ji Qian's questioning gaze, Xu Qi chuckled:

"I feel safer this way."

[Hahaha, congratulations to Sister Qian on getting a new leg accessory!]

[Waaaaah, I want the same keychain too!]

【Qiqi, get down! Mommy won't allow you to be so spineless!】

[Those in front are probably new fans; the old fans have already given up.]

Forgive him; the child was trying to save his own life.

"But what do we do next?"

Han Mengyao frowned, lost in an unprecedented state of confusion.

Ying Xu's expression wasn't very good either:

"If glasses really don't work, then aren't we just like that proverb?"

"What proverb?"

Mi Yesi asked curiously.

"A blind person crossing a single-plank bridge is destined to die."

Ying Xu spoke the most disheartening words in the calmest tone.

"You don't have any tendency to jinx things, do you?"

Ji Qian looked at Ying Xu with a complex expression in her eyes.

"There shouldn't be... right?"

Ying Xu had only meant it as a casual, sarcastic remark, but he hadn't expected Ji Qian to ask such a question.

"That's good, squat down!"

Ji Qian shouted out the last two words, then reached out and quickly pressed Han Mengyao and Xu Qi, who were closest to her, to the ground.

Ying Xu then realized what was happening and quickly squatted down on the ground.

The moment Ying Xu squatted down, a chill suddenly swept over his head, followed by a loud crash from the monitor screen.

Everyone instinctively looked up to check, only to find that the surveillance camera was intact and showed no signs of damage.

"So...that's what happened?!"

If it weren't for the astonished and uncertain expressions on the faces of the others, Mi Yesi would have suspected that the huge impact was just a hallucination caused by her extreme mental stress.

"A huge iron ball suddenly flew out of that wall just now."

Ji Qian pointed to the wall opposite the surveillance screen and said.

"Was it them again?"

Han Mengyao's expression was unpleasant as she spoke; clearly, she was very unhappy about being repeatedly ambushed and powerless to retaliate.

"no."

Surprisingly, Ji Qian denied Han Mengyao's guess:
