"By the way, what happened to Gloria just now?" I asked the swordsman while rubbing my hair. After all, the Gloria I saw just now was really crazy, which made me very curious.

The swordsman folded his arms, standing by the window sill, gazing at the inky black sky and the murky Yellow River in the distance. After a long pause, he spoke, "Back then, when Gloria was escorting Su Xiaomo back to her country, she drowned for no apparent reason. Gloria, haunted by resentment, became insane and mad. After everyone escorted her back to the Exorcist Pavilion, she recuperated for two or three years before gradually recovering. But ever since, she's been required to keep the lights on at night. Any darkness would cause her to lose her composure... just as you just witnessed."

"Grudge? Whose grudge?" I was baffled. Su Xiaoniu drowned, and Gloria went insane? Something was amiss. Su Xiaoniu was electrocuted in the swimming pool by Gloria, creating the illusion of drowning. And after her death, before her soul had left her body, Gloria had a few strands of her hair plucked out and left. If that was Su Xiaoniu's grudge, wouldn't it be too soon for it to attach itself to Gloria so soon after her death?

Besides, Gloria was a master exorcist herself, so how could she not exorcise such a small grudge? Instead, she went insane for two or three years before being cured, and then she was left with the sequelae of going insane when the environment turned dark...

This resentment can't be from Su Xiaonu, right?

The swordsman shook his head and said, "I don't know. I wasn't there at the time. You might as well ask Gloria directly."

Ask Gloria? Shit, I'm just asking for death. Besides, what does Gloria's insanity have to do with me? I immediately shook my head and went to the bedside. I found Su Xiaoniu hiding under the covers, her entire head buried. It was heartbreaking to see her. It seemed that Gloria's actions had deeply frightened her.

Gloria, you made Su Xiaoniu feel scared, I will let you know what fear is! You made Su Xiaoniu feel scared, I will let you know what helplessness is! You made Su Xiaoniu feel helpless, I will let you know what despair is!

In short, I will repay you tenfold for everything you did to Su Xiaonu!

I clenched my fists and swore silently in my heart.

late at night.

Su Xiaoniu woke up, half of her head poked out from the quilt, and looked around in the dark suite for a long time, perhaps looking at where she was. She didn't even know where she was. You can imagine how distraught she was from the time she came in until now.

After confirming it was safe, she lowered her gaze to my face. I hadn't slept the entire time, watching her the entire time. At that moment, when her eyes met mine, I finally grinned. "Are you awake? Are you okay?"

"Fei Fei..." Su Xiaoniu called me weakly, and suddenly something seemed to flow out of the corner of her eyes: "Hold me."

Hug...you? I was stunned for a moment, but quickly reacted. I sat on the edge of the bed, stretched out my arms, and hugged Su Xiaonu tightly in my arms.

She huddled in my arms, her face pressed against my hot chest. Thump! Thump! Thump! The somewhat disordered sound of her heartbeat filled the entire quiet suite.

Su Xiaoniu listened to my heartbeat and whispered, "Fei Fei...don't worry, I will definitely help you get rid of the blood seal curse!"

Actually, what I care about most now is how are you?

I rolled my eyes and smiled bitterly, "How about we go back? I don't want to see you being bullied anymore. After I send you back, I'll come find Gloria and avenge you."

"I won't leave! Wherever you go, I will go! Feifei, don't chase me away..." Su Xiaoniu said somewhat arrogantly.

"But, Gloria..."

"As long as you are by my side, I am not afraid of anything!"

Sigh... helpless, I had no choice but to agree to Su Xiaoniu's request. But be careful of that blonde witch, Gloria. She's like Su Xiaoniu's nemesis. She's powerless against her. Of course, this only applies to when Su Xiaoniu is a ghost. If it were Su Xiaoniu in life, Gloria wouldn't have dared to act so recklessly. If Gloria hadn't calculated so precisely and known that Su Xiaoniu couldn't swim, and hadn't struck first, catching her off guard, Su Xiaoniu might not have died so easily in the swimming pool.

After all, Su Xiaoniu couldn't swim. She might have wanted to learn how to swim at that time. She even carried a lifebuoy with her when she went to the swimming pool. She unknowingly swam to the middle of the pool. Gloria suddenly rushed in and put a high-voltage electric baton in the water. In this situation, no matter how powerful Su Xiaoniu was, she could not escape.

I can only say that Gloria's timing was so accurate that even Su Xiaonu was taken into account by her.

I hugged Su Xiaoniu, and she hugged me tightly... Of course, I don't know what she was thinking at the moment, but what I was thinking... Maybe it would be embarrassing to say it out loud, but forget it. Just as Su Xiaoniu and I were immersed in our own world, the atmosphere was becoming more and more ambiguous and a little weird, the bed and furniture in the suite suddenly shook, and Su Xiaoniu and I almost fell off the bed.

Su Xiaoniu and I exchanged glances, neither of us knowing what was happening. That is, until Ning Xue suddenly called and said, "Xu Fei! It's bad! It's suddenly foggy outside. It looks like a sharp cone has pierced the bottom of the cruise ship, leaving a large hole. It's sinking, and we need to evacuate!"
