Chapter 33 Life or Death
Chapter 33 Life or Death
"The poison needles made from the fan are quite useful, but the onset time is a bit long. Luckily, I know acupressure, otherwise I would have had to draw my sword."
"Hey, share the location of the fan with me, I need to go find her."
【OK! 】
Under a blue sky and white clouds, the warm sunlight shone on the faces of the two girls, and a gentle breeze caressed their long, black hair.
"Senior Sister Ji, do you know how to get through this level? Is it just a matter of waiting for the time to run out?"
"Junior Sister Liu, I don't know either."
Liu Ruyan inwardly scorned Ji Baimiao for his pretentious act.
The people of the Wuji Sect are even better at pretending than she is.
They knew perfectly well what they would encounter in this challenge, yet they said nothing.
We're all here to complete the challenge together, so what's wrong with sharing information?
Ji Baimiao quietly moved to the side. Why did Liu Ruyan suddenly have such a big grudge? She hadn't provoked her at all.
"Senior Sister Ji, shall we join forces?"
Liu Ruyan looked up, her round eyes filled with sincerity.
"What do you mean?"
Ji Baimiao didn't immediately understand what she meant by joining forces.
Liu Ruyan smiled and said, "I know a secret. I'll tell you if you agree to join forces with me."
For some reason, Ji Baimiao felt a chill, her palms were sweating, and she became secretly on guard.
It's an illusion, it must be an illusion.
Junior Sister Liu is only at the fifth level of Qi Refining, while she is at the eighth level. There's nothing to be afraid of.
Ji Baimiao's lips curled up slightly, her eyes gentle: "Junior Sister Liu, may I first know why we need to join forces?"
hypocritically!
Since that's the case, then don't blame me.
Liu Ruyan cursed under her breath, then gently leaned forward, glanced around to make sure no one was there, and said softly:
"I know how to get through this level!"
"What? You're telling the truth?"
Ji Baimiao looked delighted and hurriedly asked, "Then how do I know if it passes?"
My guard has only increased.
Did the eldest brother tell everything to others?
No, it's impossible.
The eldest brother couldn't possibly tell anyone else.
The eldest brother said that there are five maps, two people per map, and one person out of the nine of them will be skipped.
Only one person can survive and leave each map, becoming the test subject for the next stage.
The next stage must have five people, no more and no less.
The final level itself requires five people with basic attribute spiritual roots to unlock.
Extra players will enter different maps at once. On the map with more than two players, there can only be a final battle. The loser is eliminated and there is only one winner.
She had originally planned to fight directly, but when she saw Junior Sister Liu's innocent eyes, she softened.
Now there are other ways to pass the level, great!
She doesn't need to kill an innocent person.
"Only five people can pass this level, but there are no attribute requirements after entering. As long as there are five people, it's fine. Let's team up! Let's go kill that little mute!"
Liu Ruyan stared at Ji Baimiao, trying to find clues in her eyes.
Upon hearing "five people," Ji Baimiao's pupils contracted slightly; she would have missed it if she hadn't been watching closely.
She and Tu Shan were the weakest among this group.
Because Tu Shan entered through another door, she did not suffer as much as Tu Shan.
Ji Se didn't want to stay with her, so Senior Brother Cheng just stayed by Ji Se's side.
Pah! You deadbeat simp!
She was alone in one spot, and tried to stay with the two of them, but that bitch Gise immediately ran away as soon as she saw her coming.
Senior Brother Cheng went along too, leaving her all alone.
Perhaps because she was alone and not very strong, Liu Xiang made no attempt to hide his murderous intent towards her.
Liu Xiang was clearly a hypocrite; she could see through his pretense at a glance.
He seemed to treat both of his junior female classmates very well.
In ten days, she caught three instances of disdain and five instances of murderous intent directed at his junior sister.
She was discovered twice before Liu Xiang stopped trying to stop her.
She didn't cultivate for a single day during those ten days.
Her cultivation level is the lowest here. Even if she reaches the sixth level of Qi Refining, she's still at the bottom. There's no need to waste her time.
After analyzing it again and again, I guessed that Liu Xiang's murderous intent was definitely related to the final challenge.
She didn't know what the final hurdle was.
On the eighth day, she suddenly remembered the five basic attributes that Liu Xiang had mentioned and guessed that they might be related to the number five.
I was just trying to trick Ji Baimiao, I didn't expect it to be true.
She remained skeptical about how true it was.
After all, that hypocritical bastard Liu Xiang even wanted to kill his own junior sister; who knows if it's true or not.
Anyway, she was skeptical.
We'll fool as many as we can. As long as we find Senior Brother Cheng, Ji Baimiao won't be able to do anything she wants.
For now, we can only stall and see what's going on, in case we find an opportunity...
Why did you kill the little mute boy?
"Senior Sister Ji, that little mute is a fraud. She can clearly speak, but she lies to everyone that she can't."
Look at her, she looks sickly, she's only awake for a few hours each day, her face is pale, and she's weak all over. She must be in a lot of pain.
Let's help her, let's help her end this painful life.
Since we're destined to kill four people, let's go with her. She didn't have many years left to live anyway.
Liu Ruyan looked at him with pity and analyzed the situation with a pained expression.
Ji Baimiao clearly saw the resentment, sympathy, and pity that flashed in her eyes.
"Senior Sister Ji, I've thought it over. My cultivation level is low. Even if you let me go, the others won't. Once I help you find the others, I'll take action myself."
"I only hope that Senior Sister Ji won't kill me now, let me live for just one more hour, Senior Sister Ji, I beg you!"
Liu Ruyan's eyes were filled with innocence and pity, which made Ji Baimiao feel even more sorry for her.
Everyone wants to live, so what's wrong with Junior Sister Liu wanting to live? Besides, she hasn't done anything wrong, yet she's risking her life because of this damn rule.
She couldn't bring herself to do it.
Ji Baimiao softened and said, "Alright, then you stay by my side and we'll look for another way out. Maybe we don't have to kill anyone?"
Liu Ruyan bowed and said, "Thank you very much, Senior Sister Ji. You are so kind, you will surely be rewarded in the future."
"Insisting on killing" means that in this level, it's either her or Ji Baimiao who lives or dies.
Was this the rule Liu Xiang told her?
Liu Ruyan's murderous intent was about to burst forth, so she hurriedly closed her eyes and continued to bow.
Ji Baimiao patted her shoulder and said gently with a smile, "It's okay, let's go!"
"Okay, thank you, senior sister. Let's go!"
Liu Ruyan walked to Ji Baimiao's right side, raised her right hand to wipe her face, and turned her head away from looking at her.
Ji Baimiao chuckled softly, "She's still just a child."
The two decided to keep walking in the direction of the sun.
After they opened up, they talked about many of their embarrassing secrets, which immediately brought them closer.
Ji Baimiao looked at Liu Ruyan, who was smiling brightly, and a trace of heartache flashed in her eyes.
"Ah! Senior Sister Ji!"
Ji Baimiao turned her head and saw Liu Ruyan leaning against her. She instinctively tried to move aside, but then she remembered those innocent eyes and quickly reached out to help her up.
The two of them fell to the ground.
"Ruyan, why are you so heavy! You're pressing on my hands, it hurts, move aside..."
"laugh!"
The sound of a sharp sword piercing flesh.
