Not a sound could be heard. It was already late at night.
Gu Xijiu sat on the bed. She had been meditating for three hours, but she still could not calm down.
His chest felt as if it had been hollowed out by something, and there was no place for him to rest.
Recently, she was afraid of the night. She did not have to think about anything when she was busy during the day, but when she was alone at night, the things that she wanted to forget would appear in her mind.
Whenever she could not sleep, she would meditate and use the Mind Calming Spell.
Di Fuyi had taught her the spell to calm herself down when she was thinking. However, since she had cut all ties with him, she did not want to use any spell that he taught her.
The Mind Calming Spell that she used recently was something that she read from a book. Although it was not as effective as what Di Fuyi had taught her, it was still very useful. Usually, meditating for two hours would calm her mind and allow her to sleep for four to six hours.
However, tonight, she was probably affected by the resentment of the evil spirits. Her blood was boiling violently. She could not calm herself down even after practicing for so long. She spat out a mouthful of blood when she opened her eyes. Her heart was beating rapidly.
She sighed and got up. She walked around the courtyard. The night wind was chilly. She sat on a stone bench and felt the cold wind for an hour.
Since she could not sleep, she began to think about the evil spirits in the palace. Recently, there seemed to be more evil spirits in the city. Including the four that she had just expiated last night, she had expiated three batches of evil spirits over the past ten days.
Moreover, each batch of evil spirits was more vicious than the previous one. Was it really the evil left behind by the fake Celestial Master Zuo? Or was there someone secretly doing something new?
Although the fake Celestial Master Zuo had been punished, there were actually many accomplices under him. Some were in the open, and some were in the dark. It was easy to get rid of those who were in the light. However, it was difficult to get rid of those who were in the dark. It was impossible to get rid of all of them at once.
She contacted Li Mengxia again. Li Mengxia was always energetic. She reported to her about the results of the past few days and how many of the fake Celestial Master Zuo had been caught.
Both of them chatted for a while, but Li Mengxia did not ask about Gu Xijiu and Di Fuyi.
As the leader of the Anying Association, she was the most well-informed. She must have known about it long ago.
She also knew Gu Xijiu's character. She did not need any useless consolation, so she just chatted with Gu Xijiu.
Today, Li Mengxia was very patient. Previously, she would always explain the situation to Gu Xijiu in a few words. She was also very straightforward when she was chatting with Gu Xijiu.
However, today, she still had her usual style. After chatting with Gu Xijiu for a few minutes, she seemed to have changed into a different person. Her voice was still the same, but it had an unprecedented magnetism. In the quiet night, it was as if there was an echo in an empty valley. She even sang a song that she had just learned to Gu Xijiu. The song was soothing like a serenade and sounded like a lullaby when she sang it.
Initially, Gu Xijiu did not feel sleepy at all. However, as they chatted for a while, she began to feel sleepy. She yawned and went to bed. She continued chatting with Li Mengxia under the blanket. Soon, she fell asleep.
Li Mengxia spoke a few more sentences through the directed audio spell, but she did not get a response. She asked with uncertainty, "Xijiu, are you asleep?"
Gu Xijiu was in a deep sleep, so she did not answer.
