Chapter 1388 This High-Level Game
This is a question that needs to be carefully considered.
Gu Xia stroked his chin, glancing out of the corner of his eye at the Annihilation Sword beside him... and the large pack above his head.
She apologized, but she didn't mean to; it was just that he was too conspicuous.
How come I didn't notice how funny this thing looked before?
But now is not the time to think about that. Suddenly, an idea popped into Gu Xia's mind, and she called out with a smile, "Annihilation Light."
"???"
Annihilation Sword suddenly jolted, turning its head to look at her as if it had seen a ghost, "What are you doing?"
"Gu Xia, just say what you want to say. Don't give me that. It sounds kind of scary."
He subconsciously touched his arm, feeling that the smile on Gu Xia's face looked really off, as if there were several big words stuck to her head.
—They have ill intentions.
After he fell into Gu Xia's hands, there was no affection between them, only resentment.
Although it was only a brief encounter, the Annihilation Sword had already seen through the brat's wicked nature.
The fact that she's suddenly smiling so warmly at me makes it obvious to anyone that she's up to some wicked scheme, and it's clear that the scheme is aimed at me.
It just goes to show how harmful stereotypes can be; Gu Xia really didn't intend to trick him this time.
After all, the sword spirit was provoked by her, and her status as the sword master is a foregone conclusion. Although their relationship isn't great at the moment, they can make do. What else can they do but break up?
And she genuinely needed to use the other person's help.
Gu Xia: "With your abilities, if I were to go deep into the bottom of the sea of blood, how long could you possibly last?"
"what?"
Annihilation Sword couldn't hide his surprise. "What? Is the sky too small for you, or have you finally grown tired of living and decided to seek death?"
It even went down to the very bottom; the hair that had just touched it was completely melted away. If he were to dive down completely, he might as well start thinking about getting a new sword master.
This might be the fastest he's ever changed sword masters.
Gu Xia: "..."
As it turns out, there was a reason why she would beat up the Annihilation Sword.
The saying "You can't expect ivory to come out of a dog's mouth" truly applies to him.
Among all the sword spirits, he is truly the most stubborn of all.
Gu Xia's gaze gradually turned dangerous. She narrowed her eyes slightly, forcing a smile, "Neither. What? Are you disappointed?"
"..."
After being beaten twice, Annihilation Sword finally learned his lesson. He returned the same fake smile, "How could that be?" The bump on his head hadn't gone down yet, who the hell would be crazy enough to provoke her again?
Realizing that Gu Xia was serious, the Annihilation Sword pondered for a moment and quickly guessed her thoughts, "You think the weak point of this thing is at the bottom?"
"How sure are you?"
Gu Xia didn't give a definitive answer, "Half and half."
She only deduced the other party's psychology based on her previous experience fighting that great demon. After all, Gu Xia is not him, so she can't be 100% sure that he thinks that way.
She needed to find a way to confirm things, which is why she asked that question—at least she needed to have a backup plan.
Upon hearing this, Annihilation Sword frowned, incredulous. "You dare to take this risk with only a 50% chance of success? Are you crazy? What if you can't break it?"
"Then what do you suggest we do?" Gu Xia shrugged. "If we try, at least there's a 50% chance of escaping. If we don't try, we'll still die in the end, won't we?"
The Annihilation Sword choked for a moment.
However, after thinking about it carefully, he realized that this was indeed the case.
However, Gu Xia was more decisive than he had imagined. Most people would hesitate after witnessing the power of the blood below.
But she was quite something; without even blinking, she was ready to dive right in the moment her lips touched the ground.
It really is the dog-like temperament inherited from the sword cultivator lineage.
"Alright then." After considering it, Annihilation Sword agreed. "Since you're not afraid of death, then come on."
"But let me make this clear first: even if I suppress the corrosiveness of the blood with all my strength, it will only be temporary. You'd better hurry, or don't blame me if something goes wrong."
Gu Xia knew this all too well.
After she made her decision, she thought of the young man beside her and subconsciously turned her head. She saw that his figure had become somewhat transparent, as if a gust of wind could blow him away.
"senior."
Gu Xia held her breath slightly, her face serious. "Please wait a moment. If my guess is correct, once I break through this place, you will be able to get rid of this wretched place that has trapped you for hundreds of years."
The young man smiled and nodded, and the white light emanating from his body dimmed slightly.
Seeing this, Gu Xia didn't delay any longer. He turned his spirit sword and swooped down, shouting "Annihilation Light" just before he touched the splashing blood.
"coming."
The next moment, a layer of black and red light instantly enveloped her entire body.
The corrosive blood that would normally hiss and emit white smoke upon contact seemed to have been blocked by a protective shield. Gu Xia stared intently for a good ten seconds, and the danger was completely shut out.
Then she breathed a sigh of relief.
It really works.
Gu Xia still cared a lot about her life. The moment she entered the water, she affixed seven or eight top-grade defensive talismans around her neck and tightly clutched the gilded brick in her arms.
To be fair, this was a high-level game.
