Gu Xijiu pursed her lips, wondering which monster in this Dark Forest she provoked. When there were no other alternatives than to face the fight, courage was the key to victory!
Besides, these creatures seemed to be able to predict her teleporting direction and could block her with a wall of poisonous liquid! Therefore, she could only fight with her most valiant effort for the time being!
"Do they have any weaknesses?" Gu Xijiu suddenly asked.
"No! It is said that it has no weaknesses! Run, master! Don’t try to fight!" The Firmament Stone urged.
"Shut up!" Gu Xijiu sighed heavily as she would have run away if she could!
She focused her mind and tried to retaliate by utilizing the dead angle of the converging attacks by the two killer centipedes.
Sometimes, she tried shooting out some hidden weapons and at other times, she swung her sword mightily in order to identify their weaknesses and kill them.
In the fight, she had been using all her strength and external abilities, running and jumping around the two killer centipedes. She moved as fast as lightning that she would bedazzle any spectators.
However, the longer Gu Xijiu fought with them, the more exhausted and dizzy she felt. These two indeed had no weaknesses and were not afraid of poison too. Gu Xijiu had utilized various types of poisons such as poisonous needles, poisonous knives, poisonous mist, etc., but none were sufficient.
The killer centipedes’ eyes, nose, mouth, stomach, etc., were supposed to be soft. However, even though Gu Xijiu had tried to stab them, all her attacks were ineffective! When she swung her sword with her level four spiritual power, she could chop down a big tree. But now, she could not even chop off a small little scale on its body!
All she knew was that the poisonous liquid they released was fatal and the only shot she had was to utilize her swift body movements to make them shoot at each other. Despite her efforts, they were unafraid of the poisonous liquid as they were still safe and sound even though their partner shot them.
Gu Xijiu was lucky that she could teleport and could escape their attacks at the very last minute. If she did not have this ability, she would most likely have died under the converging attacks! There were plenty of close shaves at death where she could have been corroded like the surrounding trees.
"Master, they should be the monsters of fourth peak and above. Why are they here at the third peak now?" The Firmament Stone was puzzled.
How would she know? Or perhaps these creatures crossed the boundary! Now she had to fight desperately for her life. There is no way that she wanted to be stopped like this!
She had been dealing with these two creatures for almost two hours now and had gotten very tired. If the condition continued, she would die of exhaustion even if she dodged all the attacks of these two creatures. Hence, she would have to fight her way out even if she had to take risk!
While seeing the killer centipede shooting another poisonous fountain towards her, Gu Xijiu suddenly dodged but instead of retreating, she launched herself towards the poisonous spray. That killer centipede seemed to be shocked and quickly sucked all the poisonous liquid back in!
Meanwhile, Gu Xijiu finally found an opportunity to escape, and she took it! She figured that though the poisonous liquid of these two killer centipedes was lethal, they did not want the poisonous liquid to be shot directly at her body so that their food would not melt and disappear. They were just trying to prevent her from escaping.
These two creatures were obviously clever and did not even reveal it during the fight.
It was Gu Xijiu who gradually realized it after fighting for an extended period. She was not very sure at first, and if she had not been pushed to the extreme, she would not have taken the risk. Luckily, the plan worked! She managed to teleport away!
As she was afraid of being chased by them, she teleported quite far away without checking the topography. Because of this little negligence, it almost cost her life! The place where she reappeared was a stream emitting bluish green heat! The stream water had a strong smell of sulphuric acid. When Gu Xijiu appeared, she was about 10 meters above the stream!
As she did not know how to fly, she was falling at a quick pace when she appeared in the middle of the sky.
"It’s poisonous acids down there! You’d be corroded if you fall into it!" The Firmament Stone shouted! It was so afraid that it trembled at it spoke.
Gu Xijiu had no time to deal with it now. Seeing that she was about to fall, she looked around and seemed to have seen a green color tree in the breeze. Before thinking about it thoroughly, she shook her wrist, and a soft rope was thrown towards the tree which latched onto it. As she was too close to the water's surface, her feet still inevitably touched it.
She closed her eyes at that moment and prepared to have her feet corroded by the water that smelled like acid. Fortunately and unexpectedly, she stepped on a piece of wood, and before her feet sank into the stream, she had already launched herself towards the opposite bank.
"Aiiyahh…" A cry was heard from afar and the "green tree" that she tangled on actually staggered to the front. Meanwhile, Gu Xijiu was also pulled over while holding onto the soft rope! It was also at this moment that Gu Xijiu realized that she did not latch onto any tree but instead a man in green!
Because it happened too quickly, she inevitably crashed into the man before she could see clearly who the person was!
"Plop!" She crashed into that person’s arm like a small bullet, and the impact force was rather intense that the person she collided into flew backward a little and fell on the ground with her in his arms.
Everything happened in just a blink of an eye. It only took three to four seconds from the time Gu Xijiu appeared in the air to the point where she held on the soft rope and crashed into this man's embrace.
She was flat on top of this unknown person while her lips pressed against his upper chin which was only 0.1 cm away from his light red lips!
Gu Xijiu, "…"
She could react quickly, but at this moment, she was slightly stupefied too! She knows that she saw that it was an upright tree, how could it become a person all of a sudden?
Was he the spirit of the tree spirit? A dryad?
Before this, she would quickly jump up and apologize when she hit a person, but her first reaction now was to grab his neck with her fingers as soon as she raised her head.
"Uhh!" The person coughed as she grabbed his neck. Meanwhile, she also managed to see the person’s face clearly, and her fingers became stiff, "It’s you!"
That person had red lips and white teeth. His face looked unparalleled in grace, and he appeared like a jade tree with a green cloth. He still looked youthful. Besides, he was so genteel as if he was a scholar rushing to the capital city for an exam.
Gu Xijiu knew this person; he was the childe put on a rival showdown with Rong Chu at the auction house and sold the Illusion Weed to her at 50,000 ounces of silver!
Author note: Can you still remember this person? If you can’t, please re-read chapter 41 to 46 when this person appeared and had a very good time with the female protagonist.
