Xiaoxiao's heart sank to the bottom; she had completely forgotten that the original host was also a victim, not someone who could choose to stay or leave at will.
Little Cutie continued to explain, "You have five more days to decide whether the souls should return to their original places."
"Why only five days?" Xiaoxiao became even more anxious upon hearing about the pressing timeline. Her mind was in turmoil; it was as if her heart was being ripped out.
"Because after the soul separates from the body, the body can only survive in the mortal world for five days. If the soul doesn't return promptly, both of you will die."
Upon hearing this news, Xiaoxiao felt a buzz in her head; she was hit hard again, "So what state is the body in now in the mortal world?"
"It's in a state of living death."
"What?" Xiaoxiao felt unbearable pain in her heart upon hearing this. She covered her chest with both hands, gasping for air. She felt as if she could hardly breathe from the pain.
