Once Lady Ling left, Gu Jin and Long Yifan also departed quietly.
They returned to the Mage World, to the Gu Mansion.
As soon as they entered, Long Yifan took out a round crystal artifact and threw it into the air.
He had done it discreetly.
The crystal glowed, creating a layer of invisible barriers around the entire mansion.
Blue lights flickered across the walls as the barrier strengthened. The sound of the world outside disappeared.
Yet to him, what appeared was tens of cursed eyes that were floating in the air.
Long Yifan looked up and frowned. "They're watching."
He had used the telepathic link to talk with Gu Jin.
Gu Jin's eyes narrowed. "You can see them?"
"Yes," he said quietly. "The cursed eyes. They're floating around the mansion. Invisible to normal mages."
Gu Jin clenched her fists. "So she's spying on us now."
Long Yifan gave a faint smile. "She's getting nervous."
Gu Jin looked at the door of her room and then at Long Yifan.
