863: I Know You're Here

I Know You're Here

On this point, Chi Jiao could understand Zhou Qiuhao.1

Ignoring everything else, what they did after Zhou Qiuhao died was enough to prove how cold-blooded his family was.

The car drove all the way to the school. After receiving permission from the school, the three of them arrived at the back of the campus.

By the time they reached the top of the mountain, the sky had already turned completely dark. Tiny stars danced in the night sky, like dazzling gems.

Chi Jiao looked up and couldn't help sighing. "This place is indeed very beautiful."

Shen Xing nodded in agreement and turned to look at her. "You're planning to start now?"

"Alright, let's finish this quickly. If Zhou Qiuhao isn't here, we can continue our search elsewhere." With that, Chi Jiao made the two of them retreat a little. She raised her fair palm and started to control her mental power.

It was very difficult to see mental energy with the naked eye. Moreover, Su Lan didn't know about supernatural powers, so he couldn't see anything.

However, he could clearly feel that the moment Chi Jiao activated her power, her aura immediately changed. An invisible pressure swept over, causing his limbs to feel heavy as if they were filled with lead.

Chi Jiao held her breath and focused. Her beautiful face was filled with coldness as she spread her mental power in all directions.

Boom—!

A huge wave appeared in the air. Chi Jiao completely covered the entire mountain with her mental power, and her raised hand suddenly tensed.

"Retract!" Chi Jiao ordered. Her mental power brushed past every corner of the mountain as she tried her best to gather the residual fragments of Zhou Qiuhao's consciousness, trying to gather it all together.

However, after she gradually retracted her mental strength, she realized that things wouldn't go as smoothly as expected.

There was no trace of Zhou Qiuhao's consciousness in the entire mountain.

His consciousness was not here. This was not the place he really liked.

Seeing Chi Jiao frowning, Su Lan walked forward worriedly and asked, "Master, how's the situation?"

"He's not here. We got the wrong place," Chi Jiao said bluntly.

Su Lan was stunned for a moment as waves of emotion surged in his heart. In the end, he lowered his head and chuckled. "Perhaps I really don't know him well enough… Otherwise, he wouldn't have left without saying goodbye to me."

Although Su Lan was smiling, his tone was extremely tragic, as if his heart had been broken.

Chi Jiao sighed and comforted him. "Don't think too much. You can't be blamed for this. No one can really predict where the soul will go after death. Even before that person dies, he might not even know where his favorite place is. How about this? I'll send you home first and go to your house to take a look. Perhaps we'll gain something."

Chi Jiao had a nagging feeling that Zhou Qiuhao felt the same way about Su Lan. Their relationship was so good that perhaps Zhou Qiuhao would be worried about him after he died.

Of course, this was all Chi Jiao's conjecture. She couldn't be sure.

Su Lan had no choice but to bring Chi Jiao to his home.

Su Lan's house was located in an ordinary neighborhood near the city center. His house wasn't very big and the decor was very simple. The moment Chi Jiao entered Su Lan's house, she realized that there was residual mental energy in the air.

"Zhou Qiuhao is here," Chi Jiao said firmly.

Su Lan's heart felt like it had been squeezed. Feeling sharp pain, he asked in disbelief, "So, he has really…"

Chi Jiao didn't answer him. She walked forward quickly and said loudly, "Zhou Qiuhao, I know you're here. Come out."
