The group followed Xiao Feng out the theater either mad or plain surprised of what happened in there. Jackson was pulled by Ace and Zander to discuss some matters with him. While the others walked around the villa. Yuan Shaui and Nurgül walked to the garden behind Xiao Feng and A Li. "These flowers... you've been growing them and manipulating them am I correct?" Xiao Feng pointed to the flowers and stopped A Li reaching for one. "Yes, the Betty Corning Clematis, their vines are spread out the garden." Nurgül used her powers as the flowers rustled showing a bit of their magic in them. "So, this is where you have been disappearing to." Yuan Shaui covered his nose.

"Don't do that I gave you the antidote early in the morning in your teas." Nurgül swatted his hand as Xiao Feng looked at her surprised. "You placed it on A Li?" Xiao Feng looked at her sister expectantly. "Yes, the council members each drank theirs including the medical staff and our household staff." Nurgül picked on a flower. "The fragrance will cause them to progress their memories much faster." Nurgül's eye glowed green as she touched the flower.

"They will be sent into a coma like sleep where they will experience their old lives thus remembering their powers inside." Nurgül smiled as she stared at Xiao Feng. "Today will certainly be an unforgettable day." Xiao Feng smiled as they chuckled. "The show is about start the flowers have picked their first target." Nurgül dragged Yuan Shaui away with him protesting in the process. Xiao Feng walked farther in the garden to see Platycodon flowers that lead up to the first pavilion in the garden.

"This flower... I guess they are able to survive through Nurgül's magic." Xiao Feng crouched down and picked two of the purple flowers then placed them on her hair. "They look pretty mommy." A Li complimented as he rubbed his nose with hers playfully. "They do back home they used to be fields full of them." Xiao Feng hugged A Li making him turn to look at the flowers. "Will you take me to see them?" A Li asked excited as he pointed to the flowers. "Of course I will." Xiao Feng said sadden as she poked at them.

Aya followed them after seeing the other two were gone since she didn't want to be discovered, yet she didn't see or heard what they talked about before dispersing. Jackson walked behind Aya without her noticing till he spoke. "You're thinking of him and missing him, don't you?" Jackson questioned as he leaned in next to the pillar across from her as she glared at him. "You almost gave us away." Aya wiped her tears as Jackson stared at her deep in the eyes. "Don't deviate from the topic Aya." Jackson pressured as Aya looked away.

"I have no idea what you're talking about leave me alone." Aya lied as she bit her lip. "About A'Yuan, Hiromi told me you brought him to her when he was just a baby." Jackson walked up to her as she looked up to him surprised. "She never questioned who were the parents, yet you insisted for her to look after him and that Wei Wuxian would need to do it as well." Jackson accused as Aya shook her head. "Stop telling lies." Aya sighed as she turned around away from him. "You always try to hide when you don't want to be discovered, also why you always tear up when you see A'Li with Xiao Feng." Jackson asked as Aya gripped the cuff of her dress.

"Does it remind you what you could've had?" Jackson was pushed back against the pillar as Aya placed her assassins' blade on his throat. "Don't make A'Li fatherless with your accusations!" Aya warned as her control of her powers started fluctuating. "He's going to find out soon or later Aya stop denying it." Jackson cleaned her tears as Aya shook in front of him letting him go. "He mustn't know, he mustn't!" Aya cried out falling to the floor. "Then tell him before it's too late before he cannot forgive you." Jackson advised her patting her in the back before leaving to his family.

She looked at Jackson with his family while sighing turning around to see Zander walking out the villa as their eyes meet. She immediately panicked teleporting away to the sisterhood lair. Ivory jumped as she suddenly saw her dropping her scrolls. "Oracle what brings you here?" Ivory asked as she bent down to pick her scrolls. "I needed a place to clear mind and away from Zander." Aya confessed as Ivory understood and left her alone as Aya walked around the place. She saw the girls were practicing their magic and some were sparing.
