He hesitated for a moment, unsure whether to interrupt her moment of triumph. But curiosity got the better of him, and he gently opened the door.
The sight that greeted him was both awe-inspiring and slightly unsettling. Qiao Daiyu stood in the center of the room, her body radiating a chaotic energy that swirled and crackled around her. Her eyes, now a mesmerizing blend of blue and purple, sparkled with a newfound intensity.
"What is this..." he said, his voice filled with wonder.
