A Hell Awaiting Growth

"Soul Devouring Engraving Knife?"

Xu Jiujiu was completely stunned when he heard what Zhu Zhuqing wanted.

That thing is practically a door-locking carving knife; whoever touches it is basically doomed.

"This..."

Xu Jiujiu looked conflicted. If it were anything else, she wouldn't care, but she really didn't dare to agree to the Soul Devouring Engraving Knife. After all, if Zhu Zhuqing did something wrong, she would probably be drowned in the spittle of the Star Luo Empire citizens.

Looking at Zhu Zhuqing, she really wanted to ask what she wanted the murder knife for, but reason kept her in check.

She and Zhu Zhuqing are currently in a superior-subordinate relationship. Although it's not that subordinates can't ask superiors questions, she can't do so for the time being.

The relationship between the two sides is not very stable. For Zhu Zhuqing, the entire Star Luo Empire is like facing a precious porcelain, and everything needs to be tested with caution.

Now, if she asks what she should do if it makes Zhu Zhuqing unhappy, what should she do?

The safest way...

"Your Saintess Hall, may I inquire about my brother? The Soul Devouring Engraving Knife Blade is infamous, and I am hesitant to make a decision."

"Your Highness, please wait a moment, I'll be right back."

After speaking for Xu Jiujiu, without giving Zhu Zhuqing a chance to react, he turned around and headed towards Clear Spring Point, or now it should be called the Saintess Hall.

Zhu Zhuqing was a little stunned, but with her rich experience, she quickly understood the reason for all of this.

With a slight twitch at the corner of her mouth, Zhu Zhuqing wanted to say, "You're too cautious."

But in the end, he didn't say it.

"Your Saintess Hall, the Soul Devouring Engraving Knife is extremely dangerous. What Saintess do you intend to do?"

It was difficult to ask for Xu Jiujiu, but as Zhu Zhuqing's protector, or rather, her bodyguard, Wang Xian'er could still ask a few questions.

Moreover, she had been in contact with Zhu Zhuqing for a while, and felt that asking her about it shouldn't be a problem.

However, she left Xu Jiujiu she hadn't had a chance to speak.

But this is fine too; it's just right to have Xu Jiawei play the "bad guy".

"Let's explain everything together when they arrive, but don't worry, there's no danger."

Zhu Zhuqing shook her head, feeling a bit of a headache. Stereotypes are a killer.

Not long after, Xu Jiujiu returned to the Saintess Hall with Xu Jiawei and Du Busi.

"Saintess, I don't know what you need the Soul Devouring Engraving Knife for. That thing is not easy to handle!"

If you need carving knives, the National Treasury has quite a few top-ranked ones; you can choose freely.

Xu Jiawei spoke anxiously as soon as he entered the room.

If Zhu Zhuqing wants a carving knife, they will find a way to get it for Zhu Zhuqing no matter what. They can get one from the lower-ranked knives, or even one from the higher-ranked ones.

But the Soul Devouring Engraving Knife is really not fun.

"It's alright, I can handle the problem with the Soul Devouring Engraving Knife, there's no need to go to such lengths."

Zhu Zhuqing could also sense Xu Jiawei's sincerity.

Although this is related to her current status, who would care about you if you didn't have a status?

People treated her with sincerity, and she wasn't the kind of person who was arrogant because of her talent.

"This..."

Seeing that Zhu Zhuqing showed no hesitation, Xu Jiawei finally relented.

"Alright, Elder Man Yi, could you please go and fetch the Soul Devouring Engraving Knife?"

"Yes!"

Man Yi nodded in agreement, and then quickly disappeared from the spot.

"Saintess, may I ask what you need the Soul Devouring Engraving Knife for?"

Xu Jiawei looked at Zhu Zhuqing curiously and asked.

"Help Elder Wang improve her strength; her current level is too low."

As Zhu Zhuqing spoke, she touched the mark between her eyebrows.

Xu Jiawei and the others suddenly realized what was going on, and their hearts, which had been hanging in suspense, were finally put down.

I see. That's all I can say now. I'm relieved.

At the same time, Wang Xian'er was deeply moved.

They had only known each other for a short time, yet Her Saintess Hall was already concerned about her improvement in strength.

But is there any necessary connection between the Soul Devouring Engraving Knife and Wang Xian'er's increased strength?

No one asked any more questions. They would find out soon enough. As long as Zhu Zhuqing was alright, everything would be fine.

Although no one asked any further questions, everyone looked at Wang Xian'er with envy.

Wang Xian'er was indeed lucky to be noticed by the divine examiner and to have a way to improve her strength!

"By the way, Saintess, let me introduce you. This is the current sect leader of the Body Sect, Senior Du Busi, a super strong expert of level ninety-eight. He is here to help Shrek when they came to cause trouble."

Yeah, come help make Xuan Zi drool.

Xu Jiawei kept gesturing with his eyes as Du Busi kept appearing, and although he smiled slightly, he still explained on Du Busi's behalf.

"Greetings, Your Saintess Hall. Meeting you today, I am truly impressed by your Saintess Hall Saintess Hall. My admiration for you is as boundless as a surging river..."

Du Busi was also shameless. Seizing the opportunity, he darted forward when he saw Zhu Zhuqing looking over and began his performance.

Senior, where's your integrity?

Seeing this scene for Xu Jiujiu, Xu Jiujiu's lips twitched. She felt that in front of Zhu Zhuqing, all those serious seniors she thought they were would become just like huskies.

"Yes, hello, please take care of me in the future."

Zhu Zhuqing, who understands the world, has a truly Du Busi personality, and she actually has a good impression of this simple-minded guy.

Moreover, the fact that Du Busi is a staunch anti- Shrek individual is enough.

"Haha, okay, okay, we'll definitely give each other more guidance in the future."

Du Busi was happy, as long as he left a good impression on Zhu Zhuqing.

"Your Highness, the things have been brought."

A short while later, Man Yi reappeared with a box and handed it to Xu Jiujiu.

"Brother..."

Xu Jiujiu, he handed the brocade box to Xu Jiawei.

"Saintess, my strength improvement is not important. Level 96 is enough. You don't need to take on danger for such a trivial matter."

Wang Xian'er spoke up.

"Don't worry, there will be no danger. In fact, it's also a way for me to improve my strength."

Zhu Zhuqing gently shook her head and extended her hand to Xu Jiawei.

Be careful in everything you do.

After giving the instructions, Xu Jiawei handed the box to Zhu Zhuqing without hesitation.

"Soul Devouring Engraving Knife".

Under the tense gaze of everyone, Zhu Zhuqing opened the brocade box.

Inside, a carving knife exuding an eerie aura lay quietly.

If we're talking about the most feared and cursed person in the world, Zhu Zhuqing would probably be the one.

After all, she is the Douluo Continent Hell that nurtures the future, and it can be said that all the darkness in the world is below her.

A mere curse is nothing more than nourishment for her hellish existence.

Besides providing Wang Xian'er with an opportunity for a breakthrough, the Soul Devouring Engraving Knife also...

Another reason is that it serves as nourishment for Zhu Zhuqing as a curse.

Her current hellish Netherworld Domain area is still too small, only ten meters. Who can use that?

She can't easily access similar things in the short term, so the only thing she can probably access is the Soul Devouring Engraving Knife.

Furthermore, besides the Soul Devouring Engraving Knife, she also doesn't intend to let Electrolux go.

The Undead Half-Plane would probably be pretty good too.
