It Turns Out You Are Here
It Turns Out You Are Here
Apparently, the young palace master had refined the medicine she needed three times, yet all three attempts failed almost right at the end. Each attempt required her to sacrifice eighteen children; so, there were already fifty-four children who were killed.
This was also the main reason why the young palace master was intrigued to learn that Mr. Fuyi was able to make the pills successfully on the first attempt; she treated Mr. Fuyi with utmost respect and politeness.
It was also through this conversation that Gu Xijiu realized that these people did not know who was the main culprit. The other information that she wanted to learn had already gotten from the conversation. Hence, Gu Xijiu had no reason to treat them nicely anymore. Right away, she killed them all!
Once she was done, she wasted no time and left in a brief moment. With swift movements, she flitted to a place near the Crystal Mountain. She raised her hands to crack the lock and moved forward one stair at a time. She could not use her spiritual power to teleport to the top, because if she left out even one step of the staircase, the alarm of the Crystal Mountain would be raised.
Soon enough, she reached the top of the mountain. She hopped on the head of the Black Dragon with a few leaps. The lock to close the Red Crystal was right at the dragon's horn; as long as she could press the dragon's scale, she would be able to close it, and her power would return in a brief moment. At that time, she could use her spiritual power to destroy the Red Crystal once and for all.
Just as she was approaching Black Dragon's neck, she felt that her surrounding turned dark and cold. A sinister sound roared. "You bastard! It turns out you are here!"
A bright red ray was shone towards Gu Xijiu with great power! Gu Xijiu reacted swiftly and twisted her body in the air while the bright red ray went right past her feet; hitting the wall opposite her. With a deafening noise, the wall cracked open! Immeasurable amounts of light green fluid burst into the direction of Gu Xijiu!
There was no time for Gu Xijiu to think about her next move; she instinctively hid from the fluid behind the Black Dragon. However, even with her incredible skills, the fluid seemed to be everywhere, chasing her and forcing her to leap around the place to avoid it.
It was obvious that the fluid was poisonous. As it squirted on the floor, a pungent green smoke sprouted. The high-intensity green fluid blocked the path to the dragon head, yet the way back was blocked by the young palace master who appeared out of the blue!
Seeing that Gu Xijiu was attacked by the fluid to the point that she had to flee to her direction, the young palace master's eyes brightened with cruelty!
"Ren Chongsheng, you little bastard! I will shred you into pieces this time! I will make you suffer the worst fate of not being able to live nor die!"
A bloody red knife appeared from her palm. The body of the knife was bright red in color, yet the cutting edge was pale blue; it was definitely carrying a poison. As soon as the knife was visible, there were ghastly sounds of crying ghosts coming out of the knife itself; the sounds were both frightening and alarming!
Gu Xijiu's composure had certainly changed. The spiritual power of young palace master had already reached level eight of a Golden Immortal! If she was to raise its level by one, she would be able to refine herself into an immortal being! There was no way that Gu Xijiu could beat the powerful young palace master; at least not when she was unable to use her spiritual power!
