Li Qingyu forgot one thing.

He was a newly grown gourd, never opened before, a virgin gourd that had never been developed, so naturally there was no stopper or anything like that.

It doesn't matter.

After a brief period of emptiness and shyness.

Li Qingyu then felt a sense of relaxation from the bottom of his heart.

It's like a caged bird that has been kept in a cage for a long time, suddenly freed from its restraints and facing the vast sky.

Soon, under the excited gaze of Number 88...

A small sword, as dark as an abyss yet shorter than a finger, flew leisurely out from the broken gourd.

It was Li Qingyu, trapped inside the gourd, who could not summon it no matter what he tried...

I'm going crazy with pain!!

In an instant, the terrifying aura of madness and pain dissipated, yet strangely remained within a small area around Pain and Madness.

Aside from number 88, who was right next door, they noticed something.

It's impossible to feel anything outside the room.

At this moment, Li Qingyu attached his consciousness to the sword of Pain Madness, completely breaking free from the constraints of the red gourd.

But it has temporarily merged with the pain and madness.

And that's where the problem comes in.

The X-level storage bucket is showing signs of being unable to suppress the negative effects of Pain and Madness.

no way.

Although the level of the Natong weapon has always been in sync with that of the Painful Madness weapon, the Painful Madness is a weapon that grows in power, and since Li Qingyu got it, he has been killing non-stop.

The extreme expansion of the dark blood intent has already given Pain Madness a hint of breaking through to the X level.

"We must find the original body as soon as possible."

Li Qingyu was a little nervous.

If I really went crazy, that would be hilarious.

Ms. Qiu is currently in a state where she can take it out at any time.

However, Li Qingyu was equally uneasy about having his consciousness possess other objects.

Other items do not have the property of immortality.

So Li Qingyu didn't care about hiding anymore. Since he was going to die anyway, he decisively transformed into a black line and shot towards the location of his original body.

Stay where you are.

Only number 88 remained, holding the rapidly decaying red gourd that had turned to dust, somewhat dazed.

"Seriously, how come it withers after just one pluck..."

"My lord's little nest is so flimsy! I was even thinking of carving some pretty little chrysanthemums or sunflowers for you!"

Amidst my reflections.

Number 88 clapped his hands.

Watching the dust quickly fall to the ground, melting and dissipating like snowflakes.

I have a vague feeling about it.

This gourd... seems to have something wrong with it?

Why are they so eager to melt? It's not the middle of summer.

...................................

“Your Highness, my initial assessment was incorrect. The rank of this ghost weapon is far too high; it is definitely not just above the super-rank, but even above the super-rank.”

Not far from the courtyard where No. 88 is located.

Inside a courtyard guest room with a similar style, but one that is more luxurious.

A beautiful woman with a delicate figure, bright red lips, pale complexion, and a faintly alluring aura spoke in a soft, sweet voice.

"My body has also reached the Super-Rank, but I still cannot touch this sword..."

"Your Highness, we never expected to have such an unexpected gain on this trip back to the capital."

The alluring woman's voice carried a hint of joy, and the corners of her mouth curved stiffly.

If you look closely...

You'll find that this isn't a woman at all, but rather a lifelike paper beauty.

"If you can't pull it out, then you can't pull it out."

A beautiful paper lady stands beside him.

Princess Xia Chan of Jin'an, who was originally wearing heavy armor with bronze runes, has now changed into a light and thin garment with gold runes.

"This man's strength should not be underestimated. Even under such dire circumstances, his body maintains an unusual vitality. If we were to pull out this knife, there might be many more complications."

"It would be best to present it to His Majesty as a gift."

"Since Your Majesty desires debauchery, and we, as your subjects, cannot dissuade you, then we will send Your Majesty a handsome man who cannot speak and has an extremely strong physique."

"His Majesty must be satisfied, and the other ministers have no reason to cause trouble."

Xia Chan stood gracefully with her hands behind her back, her expression serene and composed.

Actually, if it weren't for the fact that I was about to return to Beijing...

She really wanted to study this man carefully.

What started as a simple act of saving a life has long since become distorted as the man's value has grown.

"It really is beautiful..."

Xia Chan couldn't help but extend her index finger and gently touch the man's cheek.

Suddenly, a cool, tingling sensation washed over me.

Xia Chan almost couldn't suppress a low moan.

"This, this feeling..."

Xia Chan's eyes lit up.

He unconsciously slid his index finger down.

It grazed the man's nose, lips, and chin...

However, just as Xia Chan was about to continue downwards, she suddenly froze.

"Liu, have you noticed...?"

"This knife, it's been pulled out a tiny bit?"

Upon hearing this, the paper maid named Liu quickly bent down and leaned her head closer.

With that slightly stiff face, only her bright and alluring eyes made her observe closely.

"Your Highness...it really, really came out a little bit." Liu was extremely surprised.

"Could it be that the princess's contact caused this man's body to react?" Liu guessed.

He then turned his head and stared intently at Xia Chan.

"How about... Your Highness, you touch it a little more?"

"never mind."

Xia Chan withdrew her hand.

"Let's avoid further complications; after all, this isn't part of Northern Liang territory."
