Chapter 144: Fatal Question and Desire to Survive
Just as Jiang Jiu was thinking, Yun Shuili suddenly spoke.
"If I cherish myself, will my junior sister love me?"
Yun Shuili's eyes lit up slightly, and she looked up at Jiang Jiu expectantly, biting her thin lips lightly, looking so pitiful.
Jiang Jiu's head was instantly flooded with alarms, and his desire to survive made him afraid to speak.
If she answered this question, it would be a question whether she could survive tomorrow.
Just when Jiang Jiu thought that this was the end of the day, a call suddenly came from behind Yun Shuili.
"Xiao Jiu'er, it seems a lot of things happened while I was away."
The cold sweat on Jiang Jiu's head slid down. Although he escaped Yun Shuili's fatal question, why did Yu Zimo come back!
"Big... Um, you joined the Juetian Sect. Didn't your master give you any trouble?"
Jiang Jiu called out habitually, but suddenly remembered that his identity had been exposed, so he reacted and changed his words.
"Ji Chen? He's so weak, what can he do to stop me?"
Yu Zimo looked at Yun Shuili with a half-smile. It was obvious that he had heard everything that had just been said. He just didn't know whether Yun Shuili's appearance now was intentional or not.
“You won’t know until you try it.”
Ji Chen's cold and indifferent voice rang out over Qingyun Peak. He landed in front of Jiang Jiu's yard in a white robe, his figure slender, like a bamboo and a bright moon.
Jiang Jiu's scalp instantly felt tingling and he felt overwhelmed.
I have to worry about both of them, what if a fight breaks out?!
"Master showed up despite being ill. If I had killed him by mistake, Xiao Jiuer would have been heartbroken."
Yu Zimo's tone was playful, seemingly teasing, but the malice in it was not concealed.
"Don't worry about it, Lord of the Ghost Realm."
Ji Chen walked to Jiang Jiu, glanced at Yu Zimo lightly, and spoke in a calm tone.
"My inner demon is about to break out."
Seeing the sparks of confrontation between the two people in the air, Jiang Jiu immediately pressed his chest and started pretending to be sick.
However, what Jiang Jiu didn't know was that her actions were extremely inappropriate in the eyes of others.
When someone's inner demon strikes, their face will be expressionless and their tone will remain flat, as if they have been dead for three days and three nights.
"Inner demon?"
When Yu Zimo heard this, he turned to look at Jiang Jiu, his expression still playful, but the next moment, his expression became serious, his eyes swept over Jiang Jiu's body inquiringly, and the flames of the Nether Fire Bracelet suddenly became huge.
Jiang Jiu caught a glimpse of the blue ghost fire out of the corner of her eye. Although the fire looked very big, she felt nothing.
"when?"
Yu Zimo flashed forward and grabbed Jiang Jiu's wrist, looked at Jiang Jiu with a frown, and asked in a bad tone.
"just."
Jiang Jiu was a little uncomfortable with Yu Zimo's sudden approach to him, and wanted to quietly take a step back to create some distance. However, Yu Zimo exerted force on her, and she fell directly into his arms.
"The little tricks are too obvious."
Yu Zimo's breath surrounded Jiang Jiu. Unlike a living person, he exuded a cold feeling all over his body. Fortunately, it did not make Jiang Jiu feel uncomfortable, as if the air conditioner was two degrees lower.
"Let her go!"
"Let go of Junior Sister!"
The next moment, Jiang Jiu felt a flash of white light before his eyes, and Ji Chen stood in front of Jiang Jiu with his natal sword in hand and cold eyes.
Separate Yu Zimo from her.
Yun Shuili also rushed to her side and looked at Yu Zimo with a vigilant look.
“…”
Jiang Jiu missed the formation of the altar a little. The scene now was really scary.
"Look, you hate it when they treat you like this, too."
"Why not let me out? I can kill them all without spending a penny, and our lives will be peaceful forever."
The inner demon will show up when Jiang Jiu is upset and try to persuade him patiently.
"Don't make trouble!"
Jiang Jiu angrily suppressed his inner demons and dared not have any more distracting thoughts.
It felt like a hundred ducks were arguing in her ears. Who said that three women can make a play? Three men can do the same, and they are even more terrifying than three women.
"You make me look like a bad person, and I don't want to be hated by Xiaojiu'er."
The three of them confronted each other for a moment. Yu Zimo put away the will-o'-the-wisp in his hand, shook his head helplessly, raised his eyebrows and looked at Jiang Jiu.
"You're not a bad person."
Jiang Jiu shook her head numbly. She was facing internal and external troubles now, and she always felt that the future would be even more difficult.
"good."
Yu Zimo got the answer he wanted, and a happy smile appeared on his lips, which made the other two people more murderous.
"Ji Chen, it's useless for you to be on guard against me. Only I can solve Xiao Jiu'er's inner demons."
Yu Zimo restrained his nonchalant expression and spoke in a slightly serious tone.
"really?"
Ji Chen's eyes also became serious, and he pointed the tip of the sword elsewhere, no longer aiming at Yu Zimo.
"I will never hurt Xiao Jiu'er."
While Yu Zimo was speaking, his eyes met Jiang Jiu's, as if he was declaring his love to her.
“…”
Jiang Jiu's mouth and eyes were twitching uncontrollably.
Because just now after Yu Zimo said "only he can solve it", Bai Ze blurted out "he's talking nonsense".
This made Jiang Jiu almost unable to hold back.
In fact, she should be touched, but Bai Ze really ruined the atmosphere.
"That inner demon of yours is probably a creature from outer space. Even though he's the Ghost King, compared to me, he's just a young brat. How dare you brazenly say you can handle it?!"
Bai Ze was indignant, and his words and actions showed his disdain for Yu Zimo.
"Please calm down, old man. Perhaps he is not well-trained and failed to see the peculiarities of my inner demon."
Based on the principle of not letting Bai Ze get angry to death, Jiang Jiu began to flatter him.
"Humph, you are right, little girl. His cultivation is still too shallow."
"Young man, you still need to practice."
Bai Ze was so delighted that he almost said that the ginger wine was very delicious.
"Uh-huh."
Jiang Jiu responded silently.
Bai Ze's personality is similar to that of the Old Naughty Boy. He can be easily coaxed as long as you say something in his favor.
"In that case, you can stay for now, but don't attack me again."
Ji Chen frowned, but finally chose to believe Yu Zimo. However, it felt like these words were squeezed out from between his teeth.
Jiang Jiu admired Yu Zimo very much for being able to make Gaoling Hua so angry.
Yun Shuili on the side lowered his head, with a dark light and an emotion called unwillingness flashing in his eyes. Perhaps he was unwilling to accept that he was not strong enough to fight against the Ghost King, or perhaps he was unwilling to accept that he could not help Jiang Jiu get rid of his inner demons.
Seeing that Ji Chen and Yu Zimo finally did not end up fighting and left one after another, Jiang Jiu was no longer so nervous.
Ji Chen is indeed no match for Yu Zimo now, but after he ascends to immortality, Ji Chen, who possesses the blood of a god, should have a natural restraining effect on Yu Zimo, and then it will not be certain who will win or lose.
Jiang Jiu was thinking about it, and turned around to see Yun Shuili with his head down, looking lost like a poor little thing, and his voice softened involuntarily.
"Thank you for your concern just now, Senior Brother. I was also frightened. Go to bed early today."
After hearing what Jiang Jiu said, Yun Shuili finally stopped acting like a puppy that had been caught in the rain and became a little more energetic.
"Junior sister, I will also find a way to deal with the inner demon."
Yun Shuili said in a firm tone, as if he had made up his mind.
