Chapter 111: Chapter 111: The Legendary Genius Junior Ancestor VS White Lotus Outer Sect Junior Sister (Part 25)
The system hadn’t replied yet when Gu Shengyin approximately knew where she was.
The door creaked open, and a face Gu Shengyin was familiar with appeared before her.
Gu Shengyin thought to herself, No matter how much I guard against it, I still can’t escape this plot.
Xi Liufeng kidnapped her for the sake of extracting Gu Weixin’s essence blood for Bai Xinya.
Even though she had avoided meeting Xi Liufeng, she still couldn’t escape.
When Xi Liufeng came in and saw that Gu Shengyin was awake, a flash of surprise crossed his face, but it quickly disappeared.
“Ice Heart Sword Emperor, I have long admired your renown,” he greeted her with a smile.
Gu Shengyin gave him a glance and said coldly, “What is this supposed to mean?”
Seeing her cold and proud demeanor, Xi Liufeng was unperturbed, “I presume the Ice Heart Sword Emperor has also heard the news. My lover has been stricken with Fire Poison and needs a certain something to cure her.”
Gu Shengyin, “My essence blood?”
She stared directly at Xi Liufeng, “Has the Young Pavilion Master of Xitian Pavilion ever considered whether she, Gu Weixin, can bear my essence blood?”
Xi Liufeng felt the oppressive power of the woman’s gaze, and for a moment, he actually wanted to look away, which made him feel humiliated.
He said with a cold laugh, “Whether she can bear it or not is not for the Ice Heart Sword Emperor to worry about. I will make arrangements.”
Gu Shengyin sneered, “Is Xitian Pavilion prepared to withstand the wrath of my master and senior brother?”
A trace of guilt crossed Xi Liufeng’s mind. He hadn’t informed his father, the Pavilion Master of Xitian Pavilion about bringing Gu Shengyin here because he knew his father would never want to offend the Astrolabe Sword Sect, which was backed by two Sword Saints, for the sake of Xinya.
However, he naturally wouldn’t show that to Gu Shengyin, and his tone was filled with malice, “If you don’t tell, who would know that the Ice Heart Sword Emperor disappeared after coming here?”
Gu Shengyin’s heart sank. Xi Liufeng’s implication was clear: he was planning to kill the prisoner and destroy the corpse.
After Xi Liufeng left, Gu Shengyin called out to the system, “Is there any way you can help me unlock these chains?”
System, “I’m sorry, host. The system cannot exert external forces on any original objects of this world.”
Gu Shengyin, “…then can you help me contact someone outside?”
System, “One moment, let me check the permissions…”
“The system can randomly send out a distress message to any one person the host has come into contact with.”
Gu Shengyin helplessly, “What if it’s an Outer Sect Disciple I’ve only met once?”
System, “The system’s authority can only send out one random message. This should be what humans call… luck of the draw?”
Gu Shengyin was floored.
Though the system was unreliable with complaints, it was her only hope for the moment. Gu Shengyin could only wish that the system would “randomly” pick someone somewhat dependable.
Zhao Ximing had just finished practicing his swordsmanship.
Ever since he tempered his Sword Heart with Fire Eye Essence combined with a Secret Technique, his realm had advanced rapidly. Now, he was confident that he would score well in the upcoming Inner Sect competition, hoping to be taken as a disciple by one of the Elders.
He remembered that frosty figure, wondering if this would bring him closer to her?
He didn’t dare to hope to stand by her side; he was content just to watch her from afar.
Just at that moment, a white light appeared before him.
A row of fluorescent text slowly emerged in the air: “Gu Weixin is in trouble. Xitian Pavilion’s Linquan Villa, come quickly to save her.”
