As he spoke, he gathered strength in his hand and slapped Ruan Xiaojiu. He didn't believe that the young girl, with her delicate skin and flesh, could withstand his palm. He didn't kill her, just wanted to scare Ruan Xiaojiu away. Since the girl was pretty, he didn't mind sparing her life.

Fortunately, he did not show any murderous intent, otherwise he would have been devoured by the dark power and turned into a rotten body.

Ruan Xiaojiu instinctively raised his hand and swung it out. In an instant, the Saint was knocked back and spit out blood. The look in his eyes immediately turned into fear as he looked at Ruan Xiaojiu. "What a powerful skill!"

Ruan Xiaojiu stood up. Only then did she fully come to her senses. It must be that Di Jingchen's body had sensed the danger, and the restriction she had placed on him had been activated, forcibly recalling her soul from the ghost world to her body. She glanced at Di Jingchen and swept her cold eyes around.

.........

Ghost Realm Lethe River:

Di Jingchen had already boarded the boat. He turned around and saw Ruan Xiaojiu still standing there with his eyes closed. He couldn't help but frown and said, "Ruan Xiaojiu, what are you doing? Why don't you come up?"

Ruan Xiaojiu stood there, his body flickering, threatening to disappear at any moment. Di Jingchen finally noticed something was wrong and returned to the shore. "Ruan Xiaojiu, what's wrong with you?"

He reached out to touch it cautiously, but it passed through Ruan Xiaojiu's body. Di Jingchen was shocked.

.........

At this moment, Ruan Xiaojiu, who was far away in the palace, trembled violently. She felt the touch of Di Jingchen on her ghost soul. The corners of her mouth curled slightly. It would be better to deal with this as soon as possible and go back quickly. If it took too long, something might go wrong.

Thinking of this, she glanced around coldly, checking for the source of the crisis. Her brow furrowed as she finally spotted the Saint lying on the ground not far away. "Who are you? What do you want to do by appearing in my room?"

The saint had just been knocked away by Ruan Xiaojiu. His internal organs felt a little dislocated and he couldn't get up for a while. Cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

Hearing Ruan Xiaojiu's question, a pair of gloomy eyes stared at Ruan Xiaojiu vigilantly.

Ruan Xiaojiu doesn't have that much time to waste here. She needs to solve the trouble here as soon as possible and return to Wangchuan in the ghost world.

At the same time, Di Jingchen looked at Ruan Xiaojiu, who was almost transparent, and felt a little panicked. He tried hard to recall what was going on.

Although I can't touch her, at least I can see her. I was just about to ask her a few questions to see if she could hear me.

Suddenly, a flute sounded, sometimes near and sometimes distant, causing waves to ripple in the Forgetful River. A moment later, a whirlpool appeared near the shore, clearly heading towards the two of them. Di Jingchen secretly cried out in alarm and pulled Ruan Xiaojiu up, attempting to leave the scene.

But unexpectedly, Di Jingchen forgot that he could not touch Ruan Xiaojiu, and his palm passed through Ruan Xiaojiu's body again. Di Jingchen was very anxious. He glanced at Ruan Xiaojiu who was about to disappear, and thought to himself that he might as well leave the place first, hoping that the river water could not sense Ruan Xiaojiu's presence.

Di Jingchen turned around and was about to fly away, but his body suddenly sank, as if he was pressed down by a heavy burden and he couldn't move at all. It was as if he was cast under a spell, or tightly bound by a strong force, unable to break free at all. Di Jingchen's head was like being struck by lightning, and his mind went blank in an instant. He stood there in a daze, as if time had frozen.

He could only let the waters of the Forgotten River drag him into the whirlpool.

……

Ruan Xiaojiu's soul was disturbed several times by Di Jingchen's passing through, making her soul in the body of the prince's mansion extremely unstable. She walked a little uncoordinated and moved forward at the slowest speed. Considering the distance in the room, it took her a full quarter of an hour to reach the saint.

Ruan Xiaojiu cursed inwardly, wondering what Di Jingchen was doing.

Xiao Cui heard the voice of her prince and jumped out of the closet, shouting in surprise, "Prince, you are awake."

Ruan Xiaojiu held her forehead, feeling dizzy at the moment. This was a chain reaction of the ghost world's soul urgently summoning her. She vaguely heard Xiao Cui's voice over here, her memory was a little confused, and her irritability made her shout: "Get out."

Xiao Cui was about to report everything that had happened today when she heard her own prince yelling at her for some unknown reason. She was so frightened that she quickly shut up. It seemed that she had reported at the wrong time, so she rolled her eyes and decided to hide for a while.

Ruan Siqi had just come out of another wardrobe and hadn't even stood still when she heard Xiao Cui say, "Princess, go back and hide quickly. The prince is very angry now, so it's best if you don't go over there now."

He looked back at Ruan Xiaojiu and saw that she seemed to be in great discomfort. He wanted to go over and ask what was going on, but Xiao Cui stopped him in his tracks. "Princess, please do not cause trouble for the prince. The danger is still out there. I advise you to stay in hiding."

Although he was a little worried, he still listened to Xiao Cui's advice and let Xiao Cui push him back into the closet to hide. He decided to wait until the crisis was over. After all, Xiao Cui was smarter than any of them.

Yun Yizhou and the others also wanted to come out, but when they saw Ruan Xiaojiu scolding Xiao Cui, no one dared to move and they hid there and watched what would happen.

The Saint noticed Ruan Xiaojiu's abnormality and wanted to take this opportunity to leave quickly. He tried to crawl out, enduring the pain from his internal organs and crawling out with all his strength. This beautiful woman was very strange. He had to get out first, otherwise his life would be in danger.

He secretly hated Di Jingchen in his heart, thinking, you are so good, Di Jingchen, you actually found such a beautiful and strong woman to back you up. No wonder Di Jingchen was still sleeping so soundly after he entered the room for such a long time. It showed that with this woman around, he couldn't do anything to him. He was really insidious and cunning.
