Oh my god! Where am I supposed to find you a lollipop now? This is Bloodstained Hell. If we were outside, I'd find you a lollipop in a heartbeat.
Liu Xiaoyuan said to the artifact spirit, "Artifact spirit, there are no lollipops in this Crimson Purgatory. Once we get out of this Crimson Purgatory, I will definitely buy you lots of lollipops!"
Upon hearing Liu Xiaoyuan's words, the artifact spirit immediately said, "Oh dear, I don't really want to stay in this blood-red inferno either. How about this, I'll take you out now."
"You can leave here ahead of time?" Liu Xiaoyuan asked, sounding quite surprised. He knew that the Crimson Purgatory would only open and close at a certain time; it wasn't something you could just come out of whenever you wanted.
Now, the manor allows me to leave at any time. Is the manor a magical artifact specifically designed to suppress the Crimson Purgatory?
Liu Xiaoyuan found it very strange, so he asked the spirit of the artifact about it.
Upon hearing Liu Xiaoyuan's question, the artifact spirit answered truthfully. According to the artifact spirit, the Crimson Purgatory was actually developed by a powerful being, rather than existing in the first place.
This manor was originally a powerful artifact of this great being, which is why the manor can move freely in and out of the Crimson Purgatory.
Upon hearing the spirit's words, Liu Xiaoyuan was greatly surprised. What kind of powerful being could create a place like the Blood-Red Purgatory?
If he were to reach that point, with his late-stage Golden Core cultivation, he wouldn't even be able to unlock a tiny corner of the Crimson Purgatory.
Liu Xiaoyuan did not pursue the question further, but instead instructed the artifact spirit to release Gu Yuxi and the others.
Upon hearing Liu Xiaoyuan's words, the spirit immediately released Gu Yuxi and the others. As soon as they were released, Liu Xiaoyuan saw Gu Yuxi standing on the ground, while the others remained lying on the ground, as if they were fast asleep.
"What's going on? Why are those people doing this?" Liu Xiaoyuan asked.
The spirit said, "These people have had their vital energy absorbed by the black-robed figure, and their bodies are currently in a state of severe depletion. Even if they can recover, their cultivation will be greatly damaged."
Holy crap! The black-robed man is actually absorbing the cultivator's vital energy! Just who is this black-robed man?
Liu Xiaoyuan immediately inquired about the origins of the man in black robes. According to the artifact spirit, it was just that the artifact spirit was bored and the man in black robes happened to come to its door, so the two hit it off and became partners.
However, after the man in black was killed by Liu Xiaoyuan, the spirit of the artifact did not come out to avenge him.
Because the spirit of the artifact also grew tired of playing with the man in black robes, the man in black robes was killed and that was that.
Standing in the blood-red inferno, Gu Yuxi couldn't find Liu Xiaoyuan anywhere and became very anxious, thinking that something had happened to him. She called out Liu Xiaoyuan's name loudly.
Upon hearing Gu Yuxi's call, Liu Xiaoyuan said to the artifact spirit, "Alright, I'm busy now, someone's calling me. Later, will you take me and this girl out of this blood-red purgatory?"
The spirit said, "That's no problem, but you have to remember to buy me a lollipop."
Liu Xiaoyuan said, "No problem. As long as you take me out, I'll treat you to a lollipop right away."
The spirit immediately nodded and said, "Okay, wait here, I'll take your woman in right away." After saying that, the spirit directly put Gu Yuxi away.
Gu Yuxi was looking for Liu Xiaoyuan when she was suddenly absorbed into a beam of white light.
Gu Yuxi was startled to find herself inside a house again, thinking she was in danger. She immediately summoned her flying sword and looked around warily.
Liu Xiaoyuan said, "Sister Gu, don't look around. It's me, I'm here!"
Upon hearing Liu Xiaoyuan's words, Gu Yuxi immediately showed a hint of surprise and asked, "Liu Xiaoyuan, is that you? Liu Xiaoyuan, is it really you?"
Liu Xiaoyuan immediately came to Gu Yuxi's side. When Gu Yuxi saw Liu Xiaoyuan, her excitement was palpable.
At first, Gu Yuxi thought something had happened to Liu Xiaoyuan, and she was extremely worried. Now that she saw that Liu Xiaoyuan was perfectly fine, Gu Yuxi was overjoyed.
"Liu Xiaoyuan, it's so good that you're alright, it's really so good." Gu Yuxi was as happy as a child.
Liu Xiaoyuan laughed and said, "Silly boy, of course I'm fine. If I'm in trouble, everyone here will be in trouble."
"Where are we?" Gu Yuxi asked hurriedly, feeling that she was in the manor, but she hadn't seen the manor before, which is why she asked this question.
Liu Xiaoyuan said, "We are in this manor. Didn't you tell me that this manor is a magical treasure? So, I have taken control of this manor."
Hearing Liu Xiaoyuan's words, Gu Yuxi was overjoyed and looked at him with admiration, as if Liu Xiaoyuan was her hero.
"Don't idolize me, I'm just a legend!" Liu Xiaoyuan said with a smile.
The shoulder strap started acting inappropriately again, and Gu Yuxi rolled her eyes at Liu Xiaoyuan. This guy was so glib and never serious.
Liu Xiaoyuan smiled and said to Gu Yuxi, "Little sister Gu, we're about to leave this blood-red inferno now, do you believe it?"
Gu Yuxi, of course, didn't believe it. The opening time of the Crimson Purgatory was limited; it wasn't something you could just come out of whenever you wanted, nor was it something you could just come in whenever you wanted.
Gu Yuxi shook her head and said, "I don't believe it, because this Crimson Purgatory is not some other place, not a place you can come and go as you please."
Liu Xiaoyuan laughed and said, "This Crimson Purgatory may stump others, but it can't stump me, Liu Xiaoyuan."
Even the spirit of the artifact couldn't stand Liu Xiaoyuan's blatant arrogance and said, "Hey, if you keep taking credit for my work, I'm not taking you out with me."
Only Liu Xiaoyuan, the master of the artifact, can hear the spirit's words; Gu Yuxi, an outsider, cannot hear them at all.
Upon hearing the artifact spirit's words, Liu Xiaoyuan dared not utter any more nonsense and had the artifact spirit take him away from the hellish place, the Crimson Purgatory.
As for the cultivators in the Crimson Purgatory, whether they can survive depends on their fate.
About five minutes later, the spirit's voice rang in Liu Xiaoyuan's mind, telling him that they had arrived outside and he could come out.
So fast? Liu Xiaoyuan thought this was incredibly fast; he hadn't even exchanged a few words with Gu Yuxi before they were outside.
"Sister Gu, let's go outside, let's go downstairs," Liu Xiaoyuan said to Gu Yuxi.
Gu Yuxi was also taken aback when she heard Liu Xiaoyuan's words. She looked at Liu Xiaoyuan and asked, "Liu Xiaoyuan, are you saying we're outside now? No longer in the Crimson Purgatory?"
Seeing Gu Yuxi's surprised expression, Liu Xiaoyuan said smugly, "Little sister Gu, don't look so surprised. You should know that believing in your brother is believing in miracles!"
