Nana looked around nervously.
But she didn’t see the fierce expression on Xiaojie’s face at that moment.
With one hand slowly reaching into her pocket, Xiaojie forced a laugh and said, “How could that be, Sister Nana, such things are impossible…”
Just as Nana was about to nod in agreement, believing such things only exist if one believes in them, she felt a sharp pain in her neck, followed by instant numbness.
In the split second before she lost consciousness, she saw Xiaojie’s pale and twisted face in the mirror.
…
It wasn’t long before Xiaojie left the resting room, glanced around to see no one, and went straight to the restroom.
There, she saw Yun Xizi inside.
Just as Yun Xizi was about to come out, they bumped into each other. Yun Xizi casually asked, “Xiaojie, is Nana ready? The director was just saying let her hurry up and prepare for the script rehearsal.”
Xiaojie squeezed out a smile, “Sister Nana said she wanted to go out for a smoke to relax and she hasn’t come back yet. I’ll tell her as soon as she returns.”
Nana had a smoking habit.
She liked to smoke when under stress.
Yun Xizi knew this but couldn’t help complaining, “What’s the time now and she’s still out smoking? You’d better keep an eye on her and tell her to hurry up.”
Xiaojie repeatedly agreed.
Yun Xizi then left first.
She thought that by the time she returned to the stage, she would see Nana appear shortly after.
But as the time to start recording approached, she still hadn’t seen Nana.
Worried, Yun Xizi went to the resting room to look for her, only to see Xiaojie running out in a panic.
“What happened?” Yun Xizi grabbed Xiaojie’s arm and asked.
Xiaojie, drenched in sweat, replied, “Something… something’s happened. Sister Nana just sent me a text saying she’s going to meet someone and can’t record the show today.”
As she spoke, she took out her phone.
Yun Xizi took a look at the message and immediately exploded, “What is she thinking? What time is it now, and she suddenly runs off to meet someone?”
“What’s going on?” At that moment, the director came over and asked, “Where is blogger Nana? We’re about to start shooting, why haven’t I seen her?”
Yun Xizi hadn’t answered yet.
Next to her, Xiaojie hurriedly said, “Well, Sister Nana is feeling a bit under the weather, so she went to the hospital. She said she can’t shoot today and she’s sorry, but I’ve seen the makeup she wanted and her script. I can replace her for the recording, and as compensation, Sister Nana said we’ll forgo today’s fee!”
“What are you doing, playing this kind of stunt at the last minute?!” The director cursed loudly upon hearing this.
All the while, Yun Xizi kept an apologetic smile, trying to smooth things over. They couldn’t find Nana, and they didn’t want to damage her reputation, so claiming she was sick and uncomfortable was better than saying she bailed at the last minute.
Glancing at the time, the director knew they were genuinely running late. Their program had a fixed number of guests, and they couldn’t suddenly have one fewer. With such little time, there was no chance to find a last-minute replacement.
He looked at Xiaojie; although she wasn’t as attractive as Nana, her makeup was indeed passable, and she was not asking for a fee.
He clapped his hands and said, “Alright, it’s you then. Hurry up and go through the script and get ready to shoot!”
Xiaojie’s eyes lit up, and she immediately agreed.

Half an hour later.
Jiangli had set up a large Spirit Gathering Array on the mountain peak, using rooster blood, Talisman Paper, and Copper Coins buried under trees in selected positions, which naturally formed a Formation when placed.
In the instant the array was completed, Shiyan and the others, unaware of what had happened, felt the air on the mountain crest become much purer.
