Gu Shiyan’s expression turned even uglier when he thought about how Fang Wen wanted to smear that thing on his body and mouth.

Calmly, he resealed the box and set it aside. “What happens if this thing is applied to someone?”

“This is a dark art from T Country. Some people use it to smear their lips, and the first person they kiss will fall deeply in love with them. With the right combination of other methods, it can make someone completely lose their self-awareness and become a puppet for others,” Lu Miao explained, giving him a meaningful look.

If the person who targeted Gu Shiyan was a woman, it was likely that she didn’t just want to control him but also have him fall for her.

Shen Muhan looked at Gu Shiyan with disdain. “It must be because you go around flirting with women everywhere, so someone used this dark art to deal with you.”

Gu Shiyan glared at him fiercely and then turned to explain to Lu Miao inside the room, “She’s just an employee from the cooperating company. I’ve only met her a few times during lousiness discussions.”

Lu Miao waved her hand, coming out of the room and quickly distancing herself from the two of them. “I’m not interested in who she is. If there’s nothing else, I’ll leave first.”

She then emphasized to Gu Shiyan, “Don’t go back to Lingyue Manor.”

Lu Miao was afraid that if Gu Shiyan went back, the whole house would be filled with that foul smell, and she would be tempted to throw the entire Lingyue Manor away.

“Boss, let me drive you.” Shen Muhan hurriedly offered.

Lu Miao immediately gestured to stop him, then turned around and left at the fastest speed possible.

Gu Shiyan glanced back at the villa behind him, Yushui Bay, with a price almost as high as Lingyue Manor. Since she came to Luo City three months ago, she had only been known to buy two properties: Lingyue Manor and Yushui Bay, which together cost over two billion. He didn’t know about any others.

Considering her behavior since she arrived in Luo City, there was only one explanation: she was not Lu Miao.

But if she wasn’t Lu Miao, then who was she?

Lu Miao returned to Lingyue Manor, went to the bathroom, and put special spices and herbs into the bathtub. After soaking for half an hour, she completely got rid of the contaminated smell from her body. Then she changed her clothes and went downstairs, throwing away the clothes she had taken off.

After dinner, Lu Miao took Lu Yinan to the nearby No. 9 Manor. After several days of treatment, his hand injuries had improved significantly. Lu Miao administered acupuncture and applied medicine once again.

She took the newly cultivated Starfall Herb and extracted a portion from it. Then, she separately refined it into pills with the remaining experimental sample. Upon comparing the results from the analytical data of the instruments, there seemed to be no difference.

Lu Yinan stood beside her, watching Lu Miao busy herself with various instruments. He felt proud and complex at the same time. Not only was she an academic genius, but she also excelled in medicine. Her future was boundless. A sister as exceptional as her would be treasured in any family, yet their parents subjected her to all sorts of abuse and eventually drove her out.

However, it was for the best. Parents like Lu Qin and Qin Shuang were unworthy of such a wonderful daughter. In the future, he would make sure to protect her.

Once Lu Miao finished her work, the two returned to their rooms, and it was already 11 p.m. Lu Miao pushed open the balcony door, stepped onto the balcony, and waved her hand toward the night sky. A dark-red array of light appeared before her.

She gazed at it for a moment. Lin Bufan had already given her all the necessary tools and items for breaking the formation. The pills made from the Starfall Herb were also ready.

Only three days were left until the three-month deadline.

The mastermind behind this scheme was likely already aware of the three-month deadline; otherwise, they wouldn’t have made their move against Gu Shiyan at this critical moment and resorted to such a despicable method as using corpse oil.

Moreover, during their previous encounters, they had suffered heavy losses, so they must have made many preparations during this period, waiting to engage her in a life-and-death battle in three days.

However, she had no intention of continuing to wait. Everyone believed she would wait for the three-month deadline, but she wanted to catch them off guard.

She ordered Gu Shiyan not to return home and since Gu Jinxi didn’t come back tonight, it was the perfect time for her to sneak out and break the formation.

Lu Miao’s lips curled up, and she stepped on the edge of the balcony, leaping gracefully to the ground. She then walked into the darkness.

It was late, and all the teachers and students staying at the school had already fallen asleep. Lu Miao easily jumped into the school from behind the plavzround.

The Star Observatory had been completed and delivered. Lu Miao took the elevator to the top floor.

Unlike regular teaching buildings, the central area of the Star Observatory’s roof was specially set with a stone platform. There were stone pillars surrounding the platform, arranged according to the principles of the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams.

Lu Miao took out everything from her portable spatial artifact and placed the objects on the corresponding stone pillars according to the formation in the night sky above her.

Finally, she took out a gray robe.

Although the robe looked somewhat worn, under the moonlight, one could still faintly see shimmering golden threads amidst the worn-out areas.

Lu Miao put on the robe and stood in the center of the stone platform. Her hands formed seals, and she quickly performed various gestures.

From the instruments on the surrounding stone pillars, several golden lights suddenly shot out like long swords piercing through the sky, entering the Seven Killing Formation above her head.

At the same time, several golden lights shot out from different directions around Luo City, reflecting and connecting with the golden light on the Star Observatory’s roof.

These were formations that Lu Miao had secretly set up during one weekend.

Several light columns inserted into the formation in the night sky simultaneously, and the light shone brightly. The golden light spread along the originally dark-red formation, almost instantly covering the entire formation and causing it to shake violently.

In just one minute, a corner of the formation had begun to collapse and disintegrate.

The shaking of the formation intensified.

Lu Miao’s movements quickened, and the collapsing edge rapidly spread and diffused towards the surrounding formations.

In the vast night sky, the massive formation was disintegrated by nearly half at a speed visible to the naked eye.

If this continued, the entire formation would be broken in a matter of minutes.

Finally, the opposing force detected the attack and began to retaliate.

Another invisible force rushed into the night sky, stabilizing the violently trembling array formation and urging it to start operating.

The two forces clashed in the night sky, and the originally quiet night sky exploded with a rumble of thunder.

In the apartment in the city center, Gu Shiyan suddenly opened his eyes in his sleep.

Hearing the rumbling thunder outside, he got up and walked to the window, raising his hand to pull open the curtains.

Looking at the lightning in the night sky outside and the bolts of lightning that were as thick as buckets striking down, an unusually strong thought suddenly surged in his mind.

He quickly turned around and took his phone, then dialed a number..
