As one wave subsides, another one arises.
Zhang Chi had just asked Zi Mian whether she had removed the restraints on Tang Ruoling as he had told her, only to hear that Chen Runyu had also encountered trouble.
The day of their disappearance was the same for both Tang Ruoling and Chen Runyu.
Now, Zhang Chi was truly baffled.
However, there was good news. Zi Mian had indeed placed a dormant Gu in Tang Ruoling's body. If Tang Ruoling died, the Gu in her body would wake up and gradually die after losing its host.
But now, Zi Mian could still feel that the Gu remained dormant and had not awakened yet.
This meant that Tang Ruoling was still alive.
However, Zi Mian could not sense Tang Ruoling's location, which was the same as when Long Yan was looking for Zhang Chi.
They couldn't find the person, but they could confirm that she was still alive. This meant that Tang Ruoling must have gone to some Secret Realm.
After reaching this conclusion, Zhang Chi felt quite relieved.
