The Dream-eating Ghost vanished without a trace in the empty alleyway, leaving He Shutong staring blankly at the spot where You Su disappeared.
Only then did Fairy Wangshu awaken, the only exposed pupils on her Jade Rabbit Mask were bright and clear, yet deeply confused.
She spoke like a child who committed a grave error, her tone wavering for the first time:
"Master, I..."
He Shutong returned to her senses, glanced at her disciple, who looked like a Divine Maiden, and comforted with her gaze:
"It's not your fault. What you saw was only what the evil wanted you to see. Just recite the Spiritual Purity and Unity Spell taught by the Elder and forget about it."
Fairy Wangshu nodded and began to close her eyes to recite the spell. No one knew what she saw in the Dream-eating Ghost's gaze that left her in a daze, unable to even protect the injured You Su, left to see her pure white dress stained by his blood.
