Su Ji Suspects There Is a Prison Guard

Su Ji's mind was racing.

In the previous Glimpse of Destiny, although the process was unknown, he and Su Jiu eventually succeeded in ascending.

But why, this time, was the foreseen ending the complete erasure of the entire world?

It couldn't be that he was suffering divine retribution just because he wanted to rob a few sects of their spirit stones, right?

Bah, bah, bah.

That was just too ridiculous.

If the heavens had eyes, there wouldn't be so many bad people living comfortably in this world.

The only variable between the two times...

The only variable was himself.

He had become stronger.

After being ravaged by Hui Xing in the Dragon Lock Abyss for over four months, he had become far too strong.

So... was it that the world of Great Xia did not allow the existence of someone as strong as him?

A warning left by that blurry figure of light suddenly flashed through Su Ji's mind.

Leave through another world's passage with the cultivation base of the first level of the Golden Core realm.

The barrier of Great Xia was a protection, but also a giant cage, an eye-catching coordinate.

Any prisoner who tried to break this cage, or made too much noise inside it, would attract the attention of the jailers.

And the jailers' response was simple and brutal.

Whoever was the loudest would be killed.

Figuring this out, Su Ji only felt a wave of absurdity.

He had racked his brains and finally become stronger, only to be told that he still had to play the coward?

What the hell kind of bullshit was this?

The more Su Ji thought about it, the angrier he got. A breath caught in his chest, unable to go up or down, and finally turned into a long sigh.

He sat back down in the chair, his whole body slumping into it with a look of utter hopelessness.

But it didn't matter.

Even without using those methods, he, Su Ji, was still invincible in this world.

It was just that he might lack some of the sense of achievement from crushing his enemies easily.

Su Jiu looked at him, feeling both heartache and amusement. She stepped forward and gently nudged his shoulder.

Senior Brother, what exactly is wrong?

Don't ask.

Su Ji waved his hand weakly.

If you ask, I'm just tired. Let it all be destroyed, hurry up.

Su Jiu: ...

She knew it, this guy couldn't stay serious for more than three seconds.

However, seeing him like this, Su Jiu's hanging heart actually settled down quite a bit.

As long as he still had the mood to joke, it meant things hadn't reached the absolute worst stage yet.

She sat down next to Su Ji, imitating his previous manner, leaned her head close to his ear, and lowered her voice.

Then... is Senior Brother still going to rob the spirit stones?

Hearing this, Su Ji suddenly sat up straight.

Why wouldn't I!

He spoke fiercely, his expression looking as if someone owed him millions of top-grade spirit stones.

Not only will I rob the spirit stones, but I'll rob double! At worst, I'll just run away after robbing them.

Otherwise, I won't be able to swallow this anger!

Looking at his exasperated appearance, the corners of Su Jiu's mouth curled up uncontrollably, and a faint smile rippled in her clear, cold eyes.

Pfft.

She eventually couldn't hold it back and laughed out loud.

The laughter was crisp and melodious, much like the tinkling spring water in a mountain ravine when the ice and snow first melted.

Su Ji stared blankly.

Immediately after, the indignation on his face dissipated quite a bit, leaving only pure helplessness.

Su Jiu finally managed to stop laughing. She reached out to tidy Su Ji's somewhat messy collar and spoke softly, Then what about now?

Now we sleep together.

Su Ji made a show of lying down on Su Jiu's bed.

Then he was kicked in the butt by Su Jiu: Get out, get out, go sleep in your own room.

Su Ji was indeed quite tired these days; he hadn't rested for a single day.

He really wanted to get a good sleep.

You know.

Even an ox needs to rest well before it can plow the fields properly.

Thus, Su Ji prepared to leave through the back door.

Right at this moment, the smile on Su Ji's face suddenly vanished, and his expression became incredibly solemn.

Junior Sister.

What's wrong?

Su Jiu was startled by his sudden seriousness.

Su Ji took a deep breath. Looking into Su Jiu's eyes, he spoke emphasizing every word.

On the day of the succession ceremony, no matter what happens, you must not make a move.

The only thing you need to do is protect yourself.

Su Jiu's heart trembled. From Su Ji's eyes, she saw a trace of heaviness she had never seen before.

She opened her mouth, wanting to ask why.

But Su Ji only held her hand a little tighter.

He didn't explain about those purple eyes, nor did he explain that terrifying power capable of erasing everything.

Because he knew that explaining would be useless and would only add to her worries.

Su Ji gathered his thoughts and put that frivolous smile back on his face.

Alright, it's settled then.

He let go of Su Jiu's hand, turned around, and walked towards the door.
