Gu Qiaoqiao frowned, but still asked, "What is it?" Dongfang Yu pointed to Shang Qing and said in a low voice, "To wake her up, I expended a lot of spiritual energy and spirit talismans. I even tracked her soul, but her soul remains asleep within her body. I don’t know the reason, but I hope you can wake Shang Qing up. Once she wakes up, I will leave far away and never come back." Gu Qiaoqiao’s hand involuntarily clenched tightly, then she looked up at Dongfang Yu, carefully examining him. She then realized that indeed, Dongfang Yu seemed much weaker than he had on the night at the cliff. His face was unusually pale, and his lips lacked color, much like someone susceptible to the cold in winter.

Clearly, Dongfang Yu was waiting for her to return. Another thing that puzzled Gu Qiaoqiao was why Dongfang Yu, who had no romantic feelings or deep affection for Shang Qing, would stay sleepless and restless in her hospital room for more than a week. Perhaps there was guilt in his heart. But such guilt was not enough to keep him at Shang Qing’s bedside for so long without leaving. However, at this moment, Gu Qiaoqiao understood that Dongfang Yu was concerned about Shang Qing’s soul being damaged, which was why he stayed by her side to watch over her. It counted as a bit of humanity after all. Could such a weak Dongfang Yu withstand her ice sword and slingshot gun? But it wouldn’t be easy for her either. Qiaoqiao clenched her hand in the windbreaker pocket again, but had no choice but to let go. This was a hospital, a public place where a fight was impossible. Gu Qiaoqiao felt a bit disappointed. She squinted her eyes and probed, "You say you’re here waiting for Shang Qing to wake up, but actually, are you protecting her soul?" Dongfang Yu hesitated for a moment before nodding, "Yes, Cloud Mist Mountain is quite strange there. I’m worried that Shang Qing’s soul might be harmed while she’s in a coma." That place sure is different from others. Especially the second peak. There is a mysterious deep pool and a Purple Heart Orchid that confuses the mind. And there’s a Time-Space Gate that can be opened. Gu Qiaoqiao remained silent. Dongfang Yu continued, "Gu Qiaoqiao, I guess you and Qin Yize have already discussed me. If there is no evidence to execute me, do you think your prison can hold me?" Gu Qiaoqiao widened her eyes. Dongfang Yu was right. She and Qin Yize did indeed discuss him. And it was a key part of their discussions. What he said was true. For Dongfang Yu, unless he was immediately executed, prison couldn’t really hold him. And right now, they had no evidence to arrest him. No matter what, Dongfang Yu is now a person appearing in the public eye, having status, possessing everything, and is a legal citizen of the New Nation. Besides using Mystic Sect methods to deal with him, for now, he’s really managed to go free from the law. Just when Gu Qiaoqiao was both angry and somewhat hesitant, the door of the hospital room was pushed open. A tall figure appeared at the doorway. This was a very handsome young man, wearing gold-rimmed glasses on a tall nose, with a faint hint of a smile at the corner of his mouth. The black windbreaker-clad figure seemed somewhat thin, as if lacking any offensive strength, but the sharpness revealed in those eyes caused Gu Qiaoqiao’s heart to skip a beat.
