Gu Shengyinâs soul entering this body can, in a certain sense, be considered soul snatching.
However, her arrival in the task world was due to someone reversing time and space by forceful means. Strictly speaking, she is actually in a parallel world to the original, and the soul of the heroine had long left this world after finishing her predetermined life.
Furthermore, this world produced by the system contains no person who can detect anything wrong with this body.
But Cheng Lingyu is different.
Although Cheng Ling is unaware that she entered Cheng Lingyuâs body due to the above reasons, it is a fact that she occupied Cheng Lingyuâs body.
Cheng Lingyu originally didnât lose her vitality, so without an anchor, her soul will inevitably dissipate in this world.
"Soul snatching?" A cold voice repeated this term.
Gu Shengyin nodded: "Disciple has this suspicion."
The Great High Priest glanced at her: "Do you have a good relationship with your fifth sister?"
Seeing his gaze directed at her, Gu Shengyin shook her head honestly: "I grew up with my teacher; Iâve only met my brothers and sisters from the family a few times at most."
The Great High Priest closed his eyes: "Then it does not concern you."
Gu Shengyin sighed inwardly; she knew the Great High Priest would react like this.
In his eyes, besides a few individuals who have some presence, other people and matters are not in the least related to him.
She bit her lip: "If that person harbors ill intentions and wants to frame the Grand Generalâs Mansion..."
"If thatâs true, I will personally handle it and take her out." The Great High Priest opened his eyes helplessly, looking at his young disciple.
His tone seemed to carry a hint of indulgence: "Linyin, to reach the pinnacle of the Martial Way, one must not have too many distracting thoughts."
Gu Shengyin was momentarily stunned, then lowered her head: "Disciple understands."
She left the grand hall and asked the system: "Are you sure there will be no issue with Cheng Lingyuâs soul?"
The system affirmed: "Rest assured, Cheng Ling did not drive out or devour Cheng Lingyuâs soul in a normal soul-snatching way. Cheng Lingyu is merely in a temporary slumber."
This means that currently, Cheng Lingyuâs body contains two souls.
The real Cheng Lingyu has fallen into a slumber, while Cheng Ling currently holds the dominance over the body.
Gu Shengyin knew about this in advance and mentioned it to the Great High Priest just to inform him.
If Cheng Lingâs awakening required the sacrifice of Cheng Lingyuâs soul, she surely would not hesitate.
If in the future Cheng Lingyu causes trouble, the Great High Priest will naturally not stand idly by.
Although she wonât harm her brutally, she will restrict her every step, limiting all her paths.
Since Cheng Ling could be reborn into Cheng Lingyuâs body after her death, it can be considered a blessing from fate.
Now, she only hopes Cheng Ling can stay peacefully and not squander this hard-won second chance.
Protectorate Great Generalâs Mansion.
"Fifth sister, your elder sister has come to see you." A flamboyant voice sounded from outside the courtyard.
Cheng Lingyu turned her head to look at Xiao Lian, who promptly answered: "Itâs the fourth young lady."
The fourth young lady, Cheng Lingyue, the one who enjoys bullying Cheng Lingyu?
She raised an eyebrow; she had been busy analyzing the malleability of this body and hadnât sought trouble with her, yet she had chosen to come herself.
The door opened, and Cheng Lingyu stepped out, gazing at Cheng Lingyue standing in the courtyard with a half-smile: "What brings you here, fourth sister?"
