I'm caught in the cycle of endless competition, you're waiting for me in the apocalypse.

"Hypnosis?" Li Qingchuan pondered these words carefully, and after a moment's thought, said, "This person's live stream didn't involve hypnosis or any evil-gathering formations. But we must investigate those who watched his live stream; someone will inevitably try to create these formations like these people!"

"The master's live streams haven't been going on for very long, only about two months, and he doesn't seem to have many fans," the pot-bellied man interjected.

"That's good. I'll forward this to the police and ask them to investigate it in the background." Li Qingchuan knows many people in the police force, so his arrangement can maximize the confidentiality.

“Mingxuan, psychology is your main job, so finding clues on the live streaming platform is something only you can do.”

"Okay, no problem! Xinxin, the injured have been treated almost completely. I'll take you out to eat later." Qi Mingxuan walked familiarly to An Xin's side, lowered his head slightly, and gently wiped the blood droplets from her cheek with a wet tissue. "I happen to have a set of sportswear in my car. Change into it! I'll take you to the mall to buy some clothes before we eat, okay?"

Having been "dominated" by the gentle male doctor for a year, An Xin subconsciously nodded obediently! But at the same time, she felt two burning gazes.

Qi Mingxuan curled his lips into a smile, raised his head, and wagged his fluffy tail like a victorious fox, showing off his victory.

In the second round of the duel between the two foxes, Qi Mingxuan emerged victorious!

........................

As evening fell, the city was bathed in the orange glow of the setting sun. The breeze, carrying a sense of tranquility and coolness, kept the two people high above from being bothered by the high temperature.

Flying high in the sky? Yes, despite Qi Mingxuan's strong urging, An Xin still put her arm around his waist and boarded the Ruyi Hu board, flying to a high-end shopping mall in the CBD halfway out of the city.

"There are definitely too many cars at this time of day. Your brain is very efficient too, being able to think of this so quickly. Otherwise, we would still be stuck in the car and unable to escape the traffic jam, right?" An Xin now genuinely felt that Li Qingchuan and Qi Mingxuan were very smart. While others developed 5% of their brains, they probably developed 15%.

Sometimes she wondered, with her learning ability and intelligence far surpassing that of ordinary people, how come she could still not keep up with these two guys? They must be the lucky ones in this little world, truly blessed by heaven.

"The young masters and ladies you know are all blessed with great fortune, radiating golden light. They have been virtuous people for generations, otherwise they could not have been born into wealthy and noble families." Di Ting suddenly said in his mind.

"Xinxin?" Feeling Lan's small hand loosen around his waist, Qi Mingxuan turned his head and saw An Xin's somewhat unfocused expression. He gently called out, "What are you thinking about? We're almost at our destination."

"Oh...sorry, my mind wandered a bit. Have we arrived yet?" An Xin snapped out of her reverie and looked ahead.

"Yes, it's just to the right front. Let's land on the rooftop of the mall; no one will see us."

An Xin flew in the direction he pointed and stopped on the rooftop to put away the Ruyi. They traveled smoothly all the way to the high-end store on the second floor.

Just as An Xin came out of the fitting room wearing a suitable mauve dress, she looked up and saw a familiar figure flash past the shop window.

"Anna? Xiao Jiu, is Anna here?"

"A mature host will use its abilities to explore its surroundings," Di Ting said in a sarcastic tone.

"Hey, how many system novels have you been reading in my head?" An Xin said, both amused and exasperated. She could only pat the dog's head in her mind. "It's because I trust and rely on you too much. I know, I'll practice my Heavenly Eye and Heavenly Ear more."

An Xin walked to the cashier and was about to pay when the sales assistant came over with a smile: "Your husband has already paid and is waiting for you on the sofa."

An Xin blushed and turned to walk towards the sofa: "Thank you. How much is it? I'll transfer it to you."

"It's rare for me to give you a gift, and this dress suits you perfectly; it's very beautiful."

Qi Mingxuan was very gentle today. If you didn't know his character, you would definitely think he was a playboy at first glance.

At this moment, An Xin was not paying much attention to Qi Mingxuan's expression; she was distracted by using her Heavenly Eye to search for Anna's figure.

As luck would have it, An Xin found Anna on the 7th floor of the mall, at the restaurant where she and Qi Mingxuan were having dinner.

Anna was dining in a private room with a very handsome and well-built man. Their conversation was quite ordinary, and it seemed that Anna also wanted to enter the world of live streaming.

"Xinxin, you're spacing out again! What's wrong?" Qi Mingxuan noticed that she had been daydreaming for the third time, so after ordering the food, he asked her if she needed his help.

“Um… Anna is in one of the first few private rooms, discussing something with a live-streaming manager.” An Xin subconsciously covered her mouth and whispered to Qi Mingxuan, “I always felt that Anna had a lot of problems, but my dad investigated her for so long, you could say he dug up her entire family history, and he still couldn’t find anything wrong. The last few times she even conspired with the ghost to drug you and Wei Ran. This time, knowing I was coming back, she moved out overnight, and my dad still can’t find her… In short, she has a big problem.”

Qi Mingxuan lowered his head cooperatively and said in a low voice, "You can hear their conversation from here?"

"Sure, my clairvoyance works. They're discussing the commission rate right now."

"Is Anna very famous? Why did an agent approach her to discuss a contract as soon as she started live streaming?"

"I don't know either... I don't know much about her..."

Before An Xin could finish speaking, the door to the private room was pushed open, and the waiter brought out the dishes.

"I think I just heard Anna talking about Taoist temples?" After An Xin and the others left, she reported what she had heard to Qi Mingxuan.

“A Taoist temple?…” Qi Mingxuan thought for a moment, then picked up his phone and started sending messages.

After a while, he slammed his phone down on the table and said to An Xin, "I just sent a message to my bodyguards, and they will arrange for someone to follow Anna. I also messaged Gu Shuohan and asked him to keep an eye on Anna."

"Doesn't his family own an entertainment company? People in media and people in live streaming seem to be in different fields."

"I remember he has his own live streaming account and a manager who works with the live streaming platform. Because he's a big star with a lot of fans, the live streaming platform gives him a lot of traffic, and the manager is an upper-level person on the platform, so we'll definitely be able to find something out."

"I see... Actually, I have some doubts about this live streaming platform. You see, when I first had an incident at your hospital, people from the live streaming platform were involved. Later, the incident involving Village Chief Dong was also related to live streaming, and what happened today is also... Don't you think there's something wrong with it?"

"It's hard to say. There are so many streamers, and their quality varies greatly. Besides, the platform's supervisors don't understand the formations of the Xuanmen sect, so it's difficult for them to make a judgment and approve them. However, your idea has some merit, and I will have someone investigate it."

“There are so many live streamers now, they’ve infiltrated all sorts of industries, so statistically speaking, these coincidences aren’t anything special.” An Xin nodded obediently again.

Because Qi Mingxuan already knew what An Xin was doing, An Xin openly eavesdropped throughout the meal, occasionally discussing things with Qi Mingxuan. Only after Anna and the manager left the restaurant did An Xin finally sit down at the table and drink a few sips of juice.

"This is for you." An Xin took out a small mahogany box from her Qiankun World and handed it to Qi Mingxuan. "This is a red coral pendant that I made myself. It contains a one-time-use light-elemental shield energy. It's passively triggered and can block a fatal blow. Consider it a return gift to you."

Pointing to her expensive dress, An Xin took out three bottles of elixir and gave them to Qi Mingxuan, explaining in detail how to use them and their effects.

Qi Mingxuan's upturned lips and deep, pleasant laughter all proclaimed his good mood.

........................

next day

With the police's intervention and investigation, the matter was quickly resolved.

Following the clues again, the victims were found one by one and jointly reported the fake Taoist master streamer. Unfortunately, the streamer who caused the harm was never found.

Anna has been quite well-behaved these past few days, not running around, and has been filming her daily makeup routine in the small apartment owned by the live streaming company.

Life seemed to be passing peacefully again. Fang Yinuo's body had basically recovered, and the men who had received An Xin's special care had all advanced in their cultivation after undergoing the excruciating process of cleansing their marrow and tendons. Li Qingchuan even entered the early stage of Foundation Establishment in one fell swoop, and a portion of the spiritual energy in his body was transformed into spiritual liquid.

Finally, on the 13th day of the 7th lunar month, everyone gathered again in the airport's VIP lounge.

Seeing that everyone was present and there were no other irrelevant people in the VIP room, An Xin took out several small mahogany boxes from her bag.

"These are protective jade pendants that I made myself. They contain the energy of my light-elemental shield, which can be passively triggered to block one fatal attack. Everyone has one, and each pendant is made according to your zodiac sign."

Everyone's eyes lit up as they found jade pendants engraved with their own zodiac animal. After confirming that the pendant was theirs by comparing it to the name on the back, everyone tacitly hung it on their person. Some wore it around their necks, while others clipped it to their waists.

"Thank you, my dear Xinxin." Fang Yinuo was the first to grab An Xin and express her gratitude.

“It was originally a sudden inspiration I had while processing jewelry. After a few experiments, I thought I would give these as small gifts to my loved ones. Then, because you got injured, I went back that night and started carving jade. These jade pendants took me quite a bit of time, so please be careful and don’t break them.”

An Xin smiled and gave everyone a series of instructions. In fact, this idea was inspired by those cultivation novels.

"This talisman contains a strike from my Nascent Soul stage!"

—When will I be able to unleash my strongest attack or create a clone, so I can seal it up and send it to someone important to ensure their safety?

Actually, Qi Mingxuan was the happiest among them. When An Xin told him, he thought he probably wouldn't get one, but unexpectedly, with a bit of luck, he also received a protective jade pendant. Now he had two gifts specially made by An Xin. At this moment, for reasons unknown, he smiled and looked at Li Qingchuan…
