After all, until this moment, she was still kept in the dark.
I thought Qi Xiaoye had already been Su Ze's woman.
It's just that the time for in-depth communication will come a little later.
"Come to think of it, Bai Fu and Su Ze are both busy dealing with the Red Moon Sect. Isn't it a bit…"
Taking the initiative to change the subject, Nan Xi said a little embarrassedly.
"We can't do much to help anyway, so staying home is the best thing to do."
Chen Keqing spoke gently while pouring a drink for Nan Xi.
"Thanks."
Nan Xi thanked him politely.
His gaze also passed over Chen Keqing.
According to Qi Xiaoye, Chen Keqing is the eldest lady of the family, so she couldn't help but take a second look at her, mainly because... she felt guilty.
That's right.
After all, strictly speaking, she is a cat stealing fish outside.
She is a bad woman who is planning to use the beauty trap on Su Ze and wants to keep him on his guard.
So I feel a little guilty.
But adhering to the principle that it is not a crime if it is not discovered, Nan Xi hid her guilty conscience perfectly...at least she thought it was perfect.
"Besides, to be honest, getting involved with those nameless beings isn't a good thing. Even if you're affected a little, there might be unexpected and disastrous consequences..."
As if chatting, Chen Keqing continued the previous topic.
"Oh—you mean the Red Moon Cult got the spell?"
Nan Xi showed a surprised expression.
Earlier in the morning, when Su Ze met Bai Fu, they talked about the backup plan prepared by the Red Moon Sect, or rather the backup plan prepared by the Secret Society. She also listened to some of the content.
However, she only knew that those spells and rituals could indeed allow people to gain mysterious powers that did not belong to them, that was all...
"Those spells and rituals can be understood in a more popular way."
Having reached this point, Chen Keqing brought out the explanation Su Ze had given and described it again: "The so-called ritual is like a special program, or a special contact method, such as a phone number or an online ID. Regardless of its form, the most important purpose is to attract the attention of the gods of the universe..."
"Spells are special languages that can communicate directly with the gods of the universe. These spells are often short and have a fixed format. It's like someone calling you to borrow money. As a god, you'll keep hearing 'Lend me three hundred yuan.' At this time, you think that the other party has performed a show for you as usual, and three hundred yuan is nothing to you, so you will transfer the money to them..."
"However, not every ritual or spell will go smoothly. For example, if you accidentally say you're lending me three hundred yuan while performing a spell, you might end up paying back the three hundred. Also, if the deity is displeased and you still call to borrow money, not only will you not get the money, you might even be strangled to death."
Qi Xiaoye sipped her drink, looking calm, because she had heard Su Ze talk about this theory before.
It was Nan Xi's first time listening to it, and she listened so attentively that she even forgot she was holding the lobster meat in her hand.
"So this is how it is understood. It seems that spells and rituals are not that complicated things..." Nan Xi couldn't help but sigh.
"Well... that being said, there may be other ways of understanding it. This is just a more common and understandable understanding."
Chen Keqing patched it up, and after a pause, she looked at Qi Xiaoye and said, "By the way, when you and Su Ze were investigating the deep divers at sea, you saw a special spell..."
"Oh! I remember that!"
Qi Xiaoye raised his eyebrows.
"The effect of that spell seems to be similar to 'knock knock'. Su Ze accidentally used the spell and knocked on the door of a powerful character. Although the other party has not yet responded, there may be a sudden reaction... The result is a surge of power, causing unexpected damage."
Chen Keqing explained calmly.
