Xiao Shuxiang's journey inside the dark cave passage was still long. He moved away from the Thousand Wounds Pool, but several times had to deal with the undead while carrying Chu Gu Xiang in his arms.
The beautiful girl held on tightly as if afraid of falling. He closed his eyes as Xiao Shuxiang fought with the undead and gave them a kick.
The white-winged butterflies that were always following them even faced the corpses, not to mention the attacks coming from within the mirror that suddenly appeared in the air. Xiao Shuxiang did not even need to take out his sword.
Chu Gu Xiang gasped as this young man could face the ferocious corpses in no time. He looked at Xiao Shuxiang as this figure walked back while carrying him.
"Now which way?" Xiao Shuxiang opened his voice, he asked without a tone.
Chu Gu Xiang breathed slowly and then said, "You ... Just be straight."
"Well, watch out if it goes the wrong way or leads me to danger. I'll get you back to where you were,"
Chu Gu Xiang snorted and then said, "You should be able to go and find your own way. I didn't ask for your help either, did I beg to be helped, huh?"
Xiao Shuxiang looked at Chu Gu Xiang and sighed softly, he clucked. "The ungrateful girl is like this ... Aaiih, so you'd rather be chained up and be tortured, huh?"
"It doesn't mean I like it ...!" Chu Gu Xiang bit his lower lip and then said, "I hate that place the most. I'll definitely make him pay for everything ..."
"Ooh ... Now you're becoming a grudge against someone,"
"Can you stop teasing me? If you don't have anything else to discuss, then just keep going."
"You dare tell me?" Xiao Shuxiang let go of his handrails and made Chu Gu Xiang scream. He caught the girl again so Chu Gu Xiang did not fall, but she was shocked.
"You-" Chu Gu Xiang was just about to curse when this handsome young man carrying him instantly interjected.
Xiao Shuxiang said, "Now you know that I can take you down at any time. So you better shut up and not have to ask too many questions,"
Chu Gu Xiang looked at this young man who was carrying him and looked dislikeful. He looked ahead before pouting and saying, "I want some water.."
"Water?" Xiao Shuxiang frowned and looked at Chu Gu Xiang, "You want to drink?"
"Mrs. So what ... You brought water?" Chu Gu Xiang actually did not like to ask for this kind of thing, but he had indeed not drunk water for a long time. He made a soft voice as he said, "My throat is dry.."
Xiao Shuxiang stopped walking and sighed softly, "You troublesome girl..."
Chu Gu Xiang flinched. He was just about to nag Xiao Shuxiang when this young man suddenly lowered him and made him have to lean against the cave wall.
Xiao Shuxiang took out a medium-sized jug from within his Semestal Bracelet and gave Chu Gu Xiang a drink. It was fortunate that he had a lake within his Universal Bracelet so that he would not lack water.
Chu Gu Xiang looked so thirsty. This woman even choked on the water she drank and made Xiao Shuxiang shake his head slowly.
The good friend of Lan Guan Zhi rubbed Chu Gu Xiang's back and told the girl not to drink in a hurry.
Xiao Shuxiang watched Chu Gu Xiang and blinked when he realized something. His expression was slightly pale and he immediately removed his outer robe.
Chu Gu Xiang flinched, he did not know what this young man wanted to do and was shocked when the figure before him directly covered him wearing his outer robe.
"W-what are you doing?" Chu Gu Xiang blinked a few times. He really did not expect to get this kind of treatment.
"Cover up your body," Xiao Shuxiang said without a tone, "I almost saw everything."
"You-you!" Chu Gu Xiang was only aware of his current condition and put on a fine white robe of Xiao Shuxiang. He will only speak when he hears the sound of footsteps.
Chu Gu Xiang was breathing slowly, "I guess ... That's the palace guards,"
"Without you even saying that I already knew that it wasn't my friend," Xiao Shuxiang walked over and again said, "Get a tight hold."
Chu Gu Xiang had yet to react when Xiao Shuxiang darted while holding himself. The white-winged butterfly belonging to this young man flew up and followed them.
Dots of water appeared in the air, condensing to form a Moving Mirror. Chu Gu Xiang blinked, let alone seeing that the mirror was moving and as if it was a shield to them.
The sound of the foot clattering grew stronger each time Xiao Shuxiang darted. He also spontaneously looked up and the moving mirror changed position facing up.
Without warning, a slash of attack came out of the mirror and managed to destroy the roof wall above it. Loud thumping sounds rang out and several people were seen falling.
"Damn it..!"
The sighs sounded from the people who were indeed the guards of the Black Lotus Palace. They fell down from the fourth floor, not far from where Xiao Shuxiang was. Chu Gu Xiang was jolted because the attack from the strange mirror was extremely powerful.
There were three people who had instantly died because Xiao Shuxiang's attack had hit them hard, not even the three of them had time to dodge. On the other hand, there were also guards who were still alive but instead displayed their anger.
Xiao Shuxiang snorted, "You should all go and be grateful that you can still live. But it seems ... You really want to die,"
"Kill him!"
Xiao Shuxiang clucked, "Tsk. Basis ... Why not listen?"
Just by glancing at his butterfly, the white-winged insect flew and became numerous in an instant. The insects attacked the guards and overwhelmed them.
There were two guards who had made it past the insects and were now fighting against Xiao Shuxiang. Chu Gu Xiang held on tightly and even closed his eyes.
Xiao Shuxiang did not move much, he managed to keep the girl in his carriage from experiencing much shock. He kicked the chest of one of the guards and took out his moving mirror to fend off the incoming attack.
"Are they not members of your sect? Why so weak?" Xiao Shuxiang said as he directed his moving mirror to attack the enemy, he did not even need to move his hand.
The question from Xiao Shuxiang made Chu Gu Xiang stunned. The beautiful woman said, "Do you just pretend or don't know what you've done?"
Chu Gu Xiang said, "You attacked them without warning and you also did not give them a chance to counterattack. What can be expected of that, huh?"
"Because I'm amazing?" Xiao Shuxiang grinned and he gave off his swordsman aura. An aura that even he had not used for a long time.
The guards who were previously able to move became startled. Their bodies were suddenly stiff and had not had time to know what was really going on, the flying butterflies then perched on the necks of the guards.
Chu Gu Xiang was unaffected in the aura of the swordsman Xiao Shuxiang, yet he knew full well how panicked these guards were. He'll talk when an unexpected event happens.
The butterflies belonging to Xiao Shuxiang that perched on the necks of the guards began to suck blood. Chu Gu Xiang seemed to be watching him well and initially hesitated a little until then became jolted in shock.
The screams full of pain in an instant echoed. Chu Gu Xiang watched as the butterfly wings turned as red as blood and the faces of the guards they were on turned dry as if his blood was being sucked out.
Chu Gu Xiang's eyes were wide-eyed, this was the first time he had witnessed this kind of terrifying attack and it was even carried out by an insect that should have looked weak.
The beautiful girl held her breath and stared at Xiao Shuxiang. One thing in his mind now was that this young man was a very dangerous person.
