Su Nanxi eventually woke up.

Only the master chef himself knows how difficult it was.

He almost failed to bring Su Nanxi back, and was even harmed by the backlash.

If Su Nanxi hadn't seen the modern illusion, she wouldn't have been so preoccupied with it, nor would she have hesitated for so long, wanting to turn back halfway several times!

If we could go back, the master wouldn't be so obstructive. Everything is preordained. Going back isn't necessarily a bad thing. Wherever we live, we live!

But from the moment Su Nanxi arrived here, she could never go back!

Unless spacetime breaks apart and becomes disordered again!

This isn't like buying vegetables at the market, where you can get them whenever you want!

It was a serendipitous encounter to begin with; it could only happen once, and it's rare to have it twice!

What Su Nanxi saw was not real; it was merely an illusion. As long as one has no greed or attachment, it will disappear.

Therefore, the moment Su Nanxi stopped thinking about it, the illusion behind her immediately disappeared.

The reason she ended up like this is entirely thanks to Geng Yuepeng!

This is the power of those forbidden techniques: they allow the departing soul to go to the place deep within one's heart. If there is no place one most desires to go, any place one has ever thought about is acceptable. The inner obsession will be amplified, and one will see what one wants to see!

The sole purpose is to ensure that the soul never returns and is forever departed.

Geng Yuepeng's abilities were questionable; he was unable to detain and suppress the soul.

However, judging from the situation at the time, he had already done his best. He wanted to use his skills, but unfortunately, his abilities were limited, and the enemy's rescue team had also arrived. In his panic, he forgot his words!

He was satisfied with this outcome; after all, isn't life all about the soul?

Without a soul, how far is one from death?

He can be considered to have succeeded; only a master with profound Taoist skills could have saved him!

He had calculated it perfectly; a master like that isn't someone you can just meet.

Without a stroke of luck, they would never meet, so he has the best chance of winning, almost a complete victory!

The remaining tiny bit is left to Su Nanxi to create her own destiny.

Geng Yuepeng never expected that he would still lose in the end!

Su Nanxi never intended to seek out the master chef, but the master chef came to her door on his own initiative and even offered to help rescue the person!

After figuring out Su Nanxi's situation, they solved the problems one by one!

Finally, they successfully brought the soul back!

However, the master chef ultimately paid the price; he suffered internal injuries.

He didn't say anything to anyone, and when faced with their concern, he just shook his head and said he was fine and only needed to rest for a while.

Seeing this, the others directed him to an empty room to rest and asked what he needed.

The head chef shook his head and then closed the door.

No one paid much attention to the head chef; their focus was entirely on Su Nanxi, and everyone wanted to know what would happen next.

Ye Qingyu and Old Man Lu were completely focused on Su Nanxi, and when they saw that Su Nanxi had woken up, they were so happy that they couldn't speak.

After taking his pulse, Old Man Lu finally showed a relaxed smile.

The others immediately understood that this meant there was no major problem!

Ye Qingyu held Su Nanxi's hand tightly, not letting go, afraid that if he let go, his wife would never see him again, or even disappear before his eyes!

He was terrified!

I didn't dare blink!

As instructed by the master chef, the interior of the room should not be altered at will, especially the string of beads on Su Nanxi's body, which should not be removed!

Everyone strictly followed the rules, not even getting close, for fear of accidentally bumping into each other!

This is no joke!

They didn't understand what was going on here, but they knew that this was something they absolutely couldn't touch. If they did, their master might fall into a deep sleep again!

Not only should you not touch it, you must also watch it very carefully!

It's okay if you don't understand profound and mysterious things; what matters is that you know how to listen and believe!

The master chef went to great lengths to save his master, so we can't let our guard down!

The lights inside weren't just simple lamps!

Su Nanxi had just woken up and was extremely weak, even speaking was difficult. So Old Man Lu asked everyone to leave first so that Su Nanxi could rest properly.

Seeing that Su Nanxi had woken up, everyone felt relieved and left quietly and orderly.

Su Nanxi felt like she had a long dream. When she woke up, she felt confused, tired, and at a loss.

Old Lu took one last look, then turned and left without looking back.

Sigh, he won't get involved in their business!

Give them some time and space, and they'll definitely have a lot to say. This superfluous person standing there is just an eyesore!

He was quite self-aware; he couldn't stand seeing those envious displays of intimacy or hearing those hurtful words!

As I get older, I can't handle too much stimulation, so I'd better avoid it if possible!

After coming out, I looked up at the sky and wondered why the sky seemed to have cleared up again!

The emperor, far away in the palace, also sensed it and was overjoyed, for this was a sign that the crisis was over!

Poor Geng Yuepeng wasn't so lucky. He was locked in a small dark room, unable to see the sun outside or the changing sky!

However, he had a bad feeling and suddenly felt uneasy. It couldn't be anything good, at least not for him!

My first thought was that Su Nanxi wasn't dead and had been rescued!

If that's the case, he'll be furious!

Who on earth is going against him like this, saving the people he's about to kill several times? What are they trying to do?

That's outrageous!

But deep down he still couldn't believe it; how could they have been saved so quickly?

That person told him that his cultivation was not deep enough, and not only could he not be saved, but he would also suffer a backlash and die together!

Who would be so foolish as to find such a capable person so quickly!

Whether Geng Yuepeng believed it or not, that was the truth; it's just that no one told him.

It's fair to say that nobody paid any attention to him!

After taking him back, they threw him into a dark room, and no one ever came back. No one even bothered to scold him; they just left him to fend for himself!

He wanted to get out, but there were so many traps inside that even someone with good legs couldn't get out!

Once the mechanism is activated, those outside will immediately know, and needless to say, someone will come right away.

Geng Yuepeng's wheelchair was destroyed; is it realistic for him to crawl out?

But that didn't stop him from waiting for rescue. Yes, he was waiting for his men to come and save him!

Unfortunately, he couldn't wait any longer!

His Misty Rain Pavilion, and everything else he had meticulously arranged, were in dire straits themselves; how could they possibly have the energy to save him?

They had no idea where he was or what had happened to him!

His backup plan failed to prove effective, and he was attacked by the masses, resulting in countless deaths and injuries.

People came from all directions, giving them no chance to survive!

The attack was fierce, and even after resisting for a long time, it was still difficult to hold on!

"Aren't you people from Misty Rain Pavilion known for killing without asking questions? Why are you still asking?"
