Shocking! A master of metaphysics has been mind-reading!

"How long have you been here?" Xia Wange asked in a low voice, closing her eyes again.

"About half an hour," Lu Qiu said soothingly. "You've been moving around and talking nonsense. I've been considering whether to wake you up. How are you now?"

"It said it gave up." Xia Wange opened her eyes again. "Half an hour?"

"Hmm." Lu Qiu nodded. "I've been watching what's going on inside. Do you remember your nightmares? Didn't Fang Qingzi say it's dangerous if you can't remember them?"

"I remember some things, but I might not remember others. After all, that Dream Demon evolved too quickly. As soon as I discovered a loophole, it would quickly fill it in," Xia Wange said wearily.

At this moment, Lu Qiu suddenly said, "I recorded a video of you talking in your sleep and tossing and turning. Do you want to see it? I think it will be helpful to you."

Xia Wange looked at him suspiciously, "You're not trying to create a scandalous history for yourself, are you?"

"What are you thinking about?" Lu Qiu said helplessly. "At a time like this, I just think it might be useful to you. Do you want to see it?"

"Take a look." Xia Wange sat up straight, exhaled, and looked exhausted.

"How are you feeling?" Lu Qiu asked softly.

"Not bad." Xia Wange rubbed her face. "It's a draw. Since it got away, I guess it won."

Lu Qiu chuckled softly at her expression. "Let's see."

As he spoke, he opened his folding phone and started playing the video he had just recorded. Xia Wange looked at the folding phone up and down and suddenly felt that it was quite convenient at times like this.

Realizing she had gone off on a tangent, she quickly pulled herself back to the recording and watched it carefully. After only a few seconds, she frowned. "Could you please not film from below next time? You've made my double chin look so bad."

Lu Qiu: "...Okay, okay, I'll go back and learn photography, alright? Do you still want to watch?"

"Look, look."

So Xia Wange sat up slightly and leaned against the pillow. Lu Qiu pressed play, and Xia Wange saw herself lying on the bed, rolling around restlessly, muttering to herself from time to time. Her brows were always furrowed, and occasionally her hand would suddenly reach out and wave.

Lu Qiu's footage was also very unstable, sometimes close and sometimes far. When it was close, he was probably comforting her, so the video was always shaking.

Suddenly, she began to curl up in the video, her whole body trembling slightly, and she kept calling out, "Grandpa Sanqing, save me! Grandpa Sanqing, save me!"

But soon her brows relaxed in the video.

"This part should be the content of a dream I forgot." After saying that, Xia Wange shrank back with a dejected expression, raised her hand to cover her eyes, and said in a frustrated voice, "I thought I could control it, but with these continuous dreams within dreams, one after another, I am powerless. Lu Qiu, I feel a little frustrated."

Lu Qiu pursed his lips and looked at her, remaining silent for a long time. He put his phone aside and said slowly, "This isn't your fault. If you walk by the river often, you're bound to get your shoes wet. You're still so young; you've already done better than most people."

"I feel so tired." Xia Wange removed her hand from her glasses, her eyes slightly red. After a moment, she covered her face and trembled. "It's only been one night, and I'm so tired. I feel like I'm no match for it at all. It's really too powerful."

Lu Qiu gently patted Xia Wange's shoulder and coaxed her softly, "It's okay, it's not your fault. You've already tried your best. Try harder tonight, and maybe you'll be able to do it..."

Just then, Xia Wange suddenly sat up straight and threw herself into Lu Qiu's arms. She hugged Lu Qiu tightly, resting her chin on his shoulder, and sobbed, "Thank goodness you're here, Lu Qiu. I was really scared. I felt like I couldn't handle it at all. It's so powerful. I've never encountered anything so difficult or troublesome before..."

Her voice was trembling with tears, but Xia Wange's lowered eyes were clear. She quickly raised her hand, intending to use her merits to draw a talisman, but suddenly felt waves of dense energy appearing in her hand. Without thinking, she immediately used this energy to draw a talisman in her palm, and before it could react, she struck it hard on the back.

It was utterly astonished and tried to push Xia Wange away in an instant. Xia Wange took the opportunity to pull her hand hard, and the dream demon in front of it could no longer maintain its human form. Its whole body began to become transparent and illusory. It was as if it was being sucked in by Xia Wange, and all its spiritual power began to gather in her palm, slowly forming a ball.

"I... I wonder where you slipped up this time?" Dreamy's voice was a mix of men's, women's, young's, and other voices. "How did you manage to see through me again?! I've read your memories of your many interactions! That's how it should be!"

"Hmm, you do look quite similar this time." Xia Wange continued to draw talismans on her wrist to speed things up while sucking it into a ball. "But little Mengmeng, don't you understand that saying too much leads to making mistakes, and doing the right thing is better than doing the wrong thing?"

"I refuse to accept this! I refuse to accept this! I'm fine with this!"

"This is a bit outrageous, young man... Xiaomengzi." Seeing that the other party still dared to resist and even tried to pull her hand back, Xia Wange kicked her wheelchair and started pulling, while simultaneously trying to distract the other party. "You've made three mistakes!"

Sure enough, when she spoke, the dream demon froze for a moment and was almost drained dry by her.

Seeing that it was effective, Xia Wange pressed her advantage, "First of all, I want to commend you. You're really amazing for knowing that Xiuzheng wasn't around. You're such a modern and up-to-date dream demon."

That sarcastic tone nearly made Dreamy turn into a ball of anger.

"But I can't possibly call on Grandpa Sanqing for help; that would be too presumptuous," Xia Wange sneered. "I'll call on Lu Qiu for help, or my master for help."

"Secondly, Lu Qiu wouldn't film a video like that."

"at last......"

Xia Wange tossed her hand, bounced Mengmei, who was sealed into a ball by the talisman, and said with a smile, "I won't tell you."

When Xia Wange opened her eyes again, she felt a stinging sensation on her eyelids. She saw the purple aura beside her and remembered that she had opened her third eye in a dream and wanted to try it out, but forgot to turn it off.

Xia Wange blinked and quickly turned off the Heavenly Eye.

Her eyes stung from the thick purple aura.

Only then did she realize that Lu Qiu had been holding her wrist the whole time. The moment she looked at him, Lu Qiu slowly released her wrist, his tone confident: "Did it work?"

"That's right." Xia Wange curled her lips into a smile, raising her chin slightly. "With me in charge, isn't little Mengmei a piece of cake?"

She said that when she wanted to use her merits, she suddenly felt so much anger. It turned out that Lu Qiu had grabbed her wrist and forced it on her.

However, these old ladies are really stingy; they took all the extras back and didn't leave her any.
