Unaccountable
"Is this also a measure of Mental Strength?"
Lu Xiu murmured something, trying to continue sensing the situation on the other side of the coast, but found that she could not sense anything; it was all blank.
The king has truly vanished.
Should we gamble or not?
The king is most likely still in that location; given its enormous size... Lu Xiu didn't believe it could move to another place in such a short time. But whether it could be defeated instantly was another matter.
Take a moment to think.
Lu Xiu finally pressed the Judgment back into its sheath. The pale flames and the Eclipse -like phenomenon in the sky disappeared, and the setting sun shone down again.
This strike has a full five-day cooldown period.
It's too long.
If she didn't kill him instantly, it would mean she hadn't nipped the problem in the bud. Most importantly... Lu Xiu still couldn't confirm whether she had killed him instantly or not.
It cannot be perceived from a distance.
Going to the coastline alone is too risky. Even with her enhanced Mental Strength, she might not be able to withstand facing a king directly. Besides, while the Dark Souls Map is vast in reality, it doesn't extend to the coastline... She can't exactly place another instance there, can she? And the opponent might have disintegrated and gone into hiding.
"Trying to avoid my sharp edge? Shameful!"
Lu Xiu put down the knife, her brows furrowing slightly, somewhat displeased.
It's safe to say it's a truly intelligent monster...
If it were an ordinary monster, it probably would have taken the hit head-on.
This king actually hid the moment he sensed danger...
This is so troublesome.
With the Dark Souls Dungeon standing there, blocking that king shouldn't be a problem, and it shouldn't be able to breach the defenses in the short term. However, leaving it unattended is ultimately a potential threat that could explode at any time...
Moreover, she always felt that the king would become stronger and stronger over time.
Lu Xiu gazed at the distant coastline, somewhat helpless. Ultimately, it was still because her Mental Strength wasn't high enough.
If her Mental Strength had been able to suppress her opponent the moment she drew her sword, even if that mountain of flesh had truly disintegrated and hidden itself, she could have still tried to defeat her.
Instead of being unable to tell whether a cut has been made or not, as is the case now. Thinking about it...
Lu Xiu made a decision.
Let's go back to the front lines first, modify the Bloodborne Dungeon, and then verify its completion.
At the same time, we need to launch the dungeon as soon as possible.
Monsters like the King's Scion have emerged... and to deal with these monsters, the Bloodborne Dungeon is undoubtedly the perfect training ground at present. If others don't have time, she can still benefit from clearing the dungeon first. Even without any related skill rewards, clearing this dungeon should still give her a lot of Mental Strength attributes.
That's the thought that crossed my mind.
Lu Xiu looked towards the direction of the Anor Londo.
The next second.
Her figure vanished into thin air, traversing space and appearing deep within the Anor Londo.
An endless corridor.
Gwyndolin seemed to have anticipated Lu Xiu's arrival and was already waiting for her.
Lu Xiu was slightly taken aback when she saw Gwyndolin. Such a powerful sense of oppression...
If Gwyndolin posed a threat of 10 to her in the dungeon, then the Gwyndolin standing in reality posed a threat of 100 to her.
"Have you gotten stronger?" Lu Xiu looked him up and down.
Gwyndolin's androgynous voice rang out. "... limited to a specific area, Creator."
Lu Xiu:..."
really.
Even offline dungeons are limited by their Primordial Settings and framework. No matter how much they are enhanced, they cannot transcend the original framework, otherwise offline dungeons would collapse. After all, if every enemy were like Gwyn reincarnated, would players still want to play?
In fact, even now, the offline dungeons in Dark Souls can still be completed, only players will be facing a projection of the Priest.
Offline dungeons are still dungeons at the end of the day.
The system cannot be backwards.
But once these bosses are released, they won't be restricted anymore...
As for the Witch Instance, that was an accident; it was split into two versions, which led to its current mess. Looking at it this way, placing dungeons actually has quite a few advantages.
It's a shame... these bosses can only move around in the Instance Placement Site and can't go outside.
But this can't really be considered a bad thing.
If they can leave the area where the instance is placed and appear in other areas, it's hard to say whether Lu Xiu can restrain them.
They were in the Instance Placement Site, and if they weren't key figures, Lu Xiu could suppress them at any time. But once they went outside, who knew what would happen? If these bosses were out of control... they felt like they would be even more terrifying than the King-level monsters.
etc...
Sudden.
Lu Xiu thought of a possibility, and her expression turned strange.
Once the Architect reaches level 15, will that mean these dungeon characters can leave the Instance Placement Site?
"The Creator."
Seeing that Lu Xiu had not responded for a long time, Gwyndolin spoke again.
"I understand." Lu Xiu snapped out of her daze, suppressing her unfounded speculations, and slowly nodded. Then she asked, "I have a question for you. Did you see it? That enormous mountain of flesh."
"I saw it."
Can you defeat it?
"I don't know, the distance is too great, my power can't reach it, but I seem to have a natural resistance to its offspring."
"So..."
Lu Xiu pondered for a moment, then raised her head. "I'll be leaving for a while. If it gets close, don't let it cross this border. Can you do that?"
"Can."
Gwyndolin bowed slightly.
"Then I'll leave it to you."
Lu Xiu left a message and vanished from her spot in the next instant, reappearing at the edge of the Dark Souls Instance Placement Site, where she began using the Jump Kit to rush towards the defensive line.
Before leaving.
She didn't forget her promise and helped alleviate the pain of the Quelaag. Fifteen minutes later.
The Jump Kit on Lu Xiu's waist left a ghostly blue Afterimage in the air.
Accompanied by the sound of fireworks shooting out.
After sliding along the walls several times, Lu Xiu landed on a three-story building not far from the temporary command post of the Seventh Defense Line. Even though Lu Xiu's attributes far exceeded those of ordinary people, the continuous high-intensity combat and the intense exertion from drawing her sword earlier had left her somewhat exhausted. Not to mention she still needed to travel...
She tilted her head back and took a deep breath.
"Lu Xiu?!"
At this moment.
Shen Nian, who was in the command post, spotted her.
The others around also looked over. On the top of the abandoned building, the girl looked up and took a deep breath. The sea breeze blew by, causing the blue ribbon behind her head to flutter freely in the air along with her high ponytail.
Seeing that Lu Xiu was safe and sound, everyone's tense nerves immediately relaxed, and they rushed to her side.
However, the fastest thing was still a red Afterimage.
Lu Xiu took a deep breath to catch her breath, and was about to continue forward when she looked down and saw a large group of people running towards her. The red Afterimage at the forefront, in a few leaps, had already reached the three-story building where she was. It looked like Jian Li...
The thought had just crossed Lu Xiu's mind.
The next second.
The red Afterimage rushed in front of her, accompanied by a familiar, faint fragrance, and immediately opened its arms to hug her. So be it.
Normally, Lu Xiu would just let her be.
The problem is that Jian Li is still wearing the Odogaron Set and the iconic Beast-Eared Hat.
Because the rush was too forceful and the forward-leaning grabbing motion was too exaggerated...
Smack
The wide brim of the straw hat struck Lu Xiu's fair nose directly.
"[..."
Lu Xiu let out a muffled groan, instinctively reaching out to cover her nose, her beautiful, crimson eyes instantly welling up with a thin layer of physiological mist.
She faced countless King's Scion on her journey without getting hurt, she swaggered around in the Dark Souls offline dungeon without getting hurt, and she was even prepared to deliver a fatal blow to the king without getting hurt... but on her way back to the base camp, her teammates broke her defenses. Jian Li also sensed something was wrong, released Lu Xiu's waist with her right hand, quickly took off her bamboo hat, and a head of silver hair as bright as moonlight cascaded down, softly draped over her shoulders.
Next.
She hugged Lu Xiu again, looking into Lu Xiu's bewitching red eyes and pursing her red lips.
Their bodies pressed together, staring at each other.
The air was silent for two seconds.
"Sorry..."
Why are you in such a hurry...? I'm fine.
Lu Xiu slowly lowered her hand, rolled her eyes at her, and a slight blush appeared on the tip of her fair nose.
I'm a little worried about you...
Jian Li was silent for a moment, then lowered her voice, her tone unusually soft and gentle, completely at odds with her current menacing appearance. "There was Eclipse in South City just now."
"That was when I activated my skill..."
At this moment, Shen Nian and the other members of the Strategy Group finally arrived.
Lu Xiu paused her explanation for the moment.
Meanwhile, seeing the two girls embracing, the members of the Strategy Group who had originally wanted to ask about the situation in South City suddenly felt that the atmosphere was a bit awkward, and they didn't know whether to go in or back out.
Shen Nian wanted to remind Jian Li, but before she could speak, she remembered how downcast Jian Li had looked back then, and swallowed her words.
at last.
The older generation is truly more knowledgeable and experienced.
"Lu Xiu, what exactly happened in the South City? Was the Dark Souls instance successfully placed?"
Yan Fushou arrived, glanced at Jian Li, and strode forward with Chen Fu, his tone filled with undisguised urgency. "And the Eclipse just now... was that king's attack?"
Jian Li finally realized what was happening, released Lu Xiu, and went to Shen Nian's side.
"South City..."
Lu Xiu looked at Yan Fushou and briefly explained what had happened over there.
Yan Fushou and Chen Fu broke out in a cold sweat after hearing this: "... So besides the King's Scion, there's another king? And he's in Sea City? His form is so exaggerated, like a mountain?" "Yes."
"That Black Soul Dungeon..."
"It has been successfully placed."
"... entire?"
"Almost all the bosses have been brought into the real world, so it's highly unlikely that the King's Scion can get through. In fact, when I came out, King's Scion around me had already been killed. It's unlikely that the king will send any more heirs anytime soon, so there's no way to get past the Dark Souls Dungeon."
Upon hearing this...
Everyone gasped as they looked at Lu Xiu, a sense of relief rising in their hearts at the same time.
She actually managed to place the entire Dark Souls Dungeon in reality, isolating it from the battlefield... Only this girl could have done that.
Chen Fu took a deep breath, then said solemnly, "Miss Lu Xiu, thank you so much this time. If it weren't for you, the Sea City defense line would probably have faced annihilation."
Lu Xiu waved her hand. "You'll know when you see that king's appearance; no one wants to face that thing, and neither do I." Chen Fu pondered for a moment, then pressed on. "Should I send troops to garrison and guard the location where the Dark Souls is located?"
"We can send someone to observe."
Lu Xiu looked at him and replied, "I can control the monsters and bosses inside. As long as you don't actively venture into their territory and trigger their aggro, they shouldn't attack the soldiers. However, you can't leave the Dark Souls's location. Those King's Scion will roam nearby, and most soldiers can't handle them." "Understood, but..." Chen Fu nodded, then hesitated for a moment before asking, "Miss Lu Xiu, how long can this situation last? You just said that in the short term, the king won't send any more offspring, and we can't cross the Dark Souls Dungeon. What about in the long term? And are the soldiers really completely unable to face those monsters? Also, are there kings on other front lines?"
Let me put it this way.
Lu Xiu stated directly, "A seal that is said to be impossible to break will eventually be broken; a defense that is said to be indestructible will eventually be breached; and an alliance that is said to be unbreakable will eventually be torn up."
Others:..."
"You understand what I mean, right? Given enough time, the monarch will definitely be able to break through... If you really want a permanent solution, you can only kill it." Lu Xiu continued, "As for the soldiers, if their Mental Strength attributes are sufficient, they can face the King's Scion. However, before that, you need to have a basic understanding of mental pollution. Wait until I Bloodborne Dungeon Launch, and then you will understand."
As for the other front lines, I was just about to tell you about this. I personally think it's unlikely that a second King-class Monster will emerge anytime soon. It's just that the monsters on the front lines will be significantly strengthened, but this is just my guess. We still need to investigate further. I won't go this time; let them go."
Lu Xiu looked at Wei Yidong and the others.
She had evidence for this; the initial hint only mentioned the birth of a monarch... It appeared in Sea City, but it was highly unlikely that it had appeared on other front lines. However, she couldn't openly discuss the hint.
Because exporting would turn into "Aba Aba".
Wei Yidong, Cheng Xiu, Fan Lixin, and the others exchanged glances and nodded subconsciously.
"To be honest, compared to other lines of defense, I'm more worried about other countries now, like Franca and Red Tide. I think their countries might also give rise to similar monarch-like monsters."
Lu Xiu turned to Yan Fushou: "Let's remind them, otherwise it feels Vast Firmament will be left with only Nine Provinces as its country..." Yan Fushou's expression was somewhat grim: "I'll inform the Foreign Affairs Department, but even if they receive the notification, will they be able to handle it?" "The rulers that appear in their country aren't necessarily the type like Sea City."
After a moment's thought, Lu Xiu said, "Even among rulers of the same type, it all depends on themselves..."
Lu Xiu truly couldn't help with this matter.
The number of Bonfire that Lordvessel can place is limited, and she can't teleport. Even if she could, she wouldn't have that much energy.
Yan Fushou and Chen Fu fell silent upon hearing this, then couldn't help but look at Lu Xiu again.
to be honest.
Compared to them, Nine Provinces is truly fortunate...
Because there is a Lu Xiu.
She almost single-handedly upheld the combat power and defense of the entire country's High Sequence players.
I won't go into details about dungeons and the like.
Now she's even using duplicates to directly isolate the Assimilation Zone...
Without Lu Xiu today, it's hard to say how many members of the Strategy Group would have returned... "What's wrong?"
Lu Xiu noticed their gazes and moved her crimson eyes to look at them.
"Nothing, just a little emotional."
Chen Fu snapped out of his reverie and shook his head, "So, Miss Lu Xiu's next step is to Constructed Instance?"
"Yes, I need to improve myself, and then if..."
Lu Xiu looked at Jian Li and the others. "I also plan to strengthen the others. It's not a bad thing for someone to change their class to Berserker, and the Mental Strength attribute reward for clearing the Berserker Class Contest Instance will definitely be substantial. Most of you have such low Mental Strength attributes."
Jian Li looked at Lu Xiu's profile and pursed her lips.
The others fell silent upon hearing this.
"Don't look like that. I'll figure out a way to help you improve your Mental Strength attributes. You just need to clear the dungeon... Anyway, that's it. It should be fine, right?"
Seeing everyone's state, Lu Xiu offered some words of comfort, then said, "I'll set up a Bonfire here in Sea City. I'll head back to prepare for the Bloodborne Dungeon."
"Etc."
Yan Fushou nodded subconsciously, but then remembered something. "What about that Eclipse that appeared in the sky above the South City just now? What was that? Was it an attack by the king?" Hearing this...
The others also realized what was happening and looked at Lu Xiu together.
Lu Xiu shook her head. "No, it was because I was about to strike the king with my sword, but it hid, so I didn't manage to strike it. The sword wasn't drawn, and that's when this strange phenomenon happened..."
Others..."
Everyone looked at Lu Xiu, then at the direction of South City, recalling the commotion and oppressive feeling from just now. They couldn't utter a single word for a long time, all looking as if they had seen a ghost.
no.
You were about to strike the king with your sword, but before you even did it, you drew your blade! And then, a bizarre phenomenon occurred: half the city's sky was swallowed up by the sword?
Is this some kind of exaggerated claim?!
"... That's so cool! Sister, sister! What kind of skill is that?! Can I learn it?"
final.
Wei Yidong was the first to react, shouting excitedly and looking at Lu Xiu with anticipation.
Lu Xiu glanced at him: "Handsome, right?" "Handsome!"
Do you want to learn?
"Think."
"Then you can think about it."
Two hours later.
Haicheng South City, Center.
Outside the Dark Souls Instance Placement Site, the roar of the off-road vehicles gradually subsided, and dozens of soldiers jumped off and joined the group.
The leader was a middle-aged man with a straight posture. He wasn't particularly tall, but he had dark skin, straight shoulders and back, and several old scars on his face. He had a fierce look on his face.
It was Han Xiao.
"This mission is only for basic observation and recording. No one is allowed to venture deeper without authorization, and absolutely no one is allowed to provoke any of the monsters inside." Han Xiao stood at the front of the group and shouted, "Although Miss Lu Xiu said the monsters inside are restrained, that's only on the premise of not triggering their aggro! Don't take risks! Remember! Never take risks!"
"Yes!" the team members responded in unison.
"Let's go." Han Xiao turned and strode forward, leading the advance team into the real-world Dark Souls instance.
The moment they crossed the invisible boundary and stepped inside the instance, the entire team stopped almost simultaneously...
The scene before them was simply too horrific...
They had been to Dark Souls dungeons before and knew what the maps looked like, but this place was nothing like a Dark Souls map. The land looked like it had been plowed clean, with scorched craters everywhere, and the buildings were all in ruins, covered with all sorts of messy things—crystals, lava, miasma...
And that's not even the most outrageous part.
I don't know if the rules of the Instance Placement Site are higher than those of the outside world, but none of the frontline monsters scattered after the King's Scion disintegrated have respawned! Under the false sunset overhead, mountains of monster remains lay scattered haphazardly across every corner of the field of vision. Limbs and heads were everywhere, and blackish-red viscous fluids gathered into several streams, some flowing into the scorched and cracked ravines of the earth, and others pooling into small lakes in the depressions, dyeing the entire area a blood-red purgatory.
... It's visually striking!
Unbelievable!
"I..."
All the frontline soldiers, including Han Xiao, gasped in shock.
They were seasoned veterans, having witnessed countless life-or-death battles on the front lines, and believed they had seen all kinds of horrific scenes. But even they, facing this scene that seemed like a forbidden land, realized how little they had ever seen...
The main reason is that monster corpses respawn outside, unlike here, which really looks like hell... "Captain."
Seeing this, one of the team members couldn't help but look at Han Xiao: "How are we supposed to investigate like this? We don't even have a place to stand..." Han Xiao snapped out of his daze, then took a deep breath. "Let's report it first and see what the higher-ups say."
The team member nodded, then immediately brought up the communication panel.
At this moment.
Another team member couldn't help but ask, "Captain, just how many frontline monsters did Miss Lu Xiu attract recently? This is only a corner of the Dark Souls Dungeon, right? Counting the entire Dark Souls Map, this is already equivalent to a Monster Tide, isn't it? Under such circumstances, how did Miss Lu Xiu get here? How did she manage to calmly manage the dungeon?"
And are the dungeon enemies created by Miss Lu Xiu... just as terrifying in reality?
Han Xiao felt uncomfortable from the strong smell of blood. He took out a cigarette and was about to light one when he heard his teammate's words. He paused, then continued lighting it. "Phew."
Han Xiao slowly exhaled a puff of smoke, then asked in return, "You haven't met Miss Lu Xiu, have you?"
"Hmm... Captain, I think I've seen you before?"
"I was the first person to meet Miss Lu Xiu."
Han Xiao smiled, recalling the first time he met Lu Xiu: a chaotic living room with a headless corpse lying around, while the girl sat quietly on the sofa, and the moment she saw him, she picked up a knife.
At that moment, he was startled.
I just didn't expect it.
That was actually Lu Xiu's most inexperienced period... What she did afterward, every single one of them, was astonishing.
It's so disgusting...
Upon hearing this, the frontline soldier asked somewhat shyly, "Then, Captain... what kind of person is Miss Lu Xiu? I've only seen her through live streams, and I only know she's very beautiful. It's really hard to imagine that someone so beautiful and young could be so capable..."
"Don't even mention you, I find it hard to imagine either. As for what kind of person she is, I can't guess either. Sometimes she's like a lively young girl, but other times... she's like a born warrior."
Han Xiao recalled the difference between Lu Xiu's everyday and combat states and couldn't help but shake his head, "Simply put, she's a very complex and also very charming person, but..."
Speaking of which...
Han Xiao looked at the team member beside him. "I advise you not to have any other thoughts. If you do, Lu Xiu might not do anything, but General Chen Fu will definitely have you shot on the spot..."
The team member immediately shook his head, his face turning bright red. "Captain, I didn't!"
"Actually, I can understand."
Han Xiao smiled. When he was twenty, he thought no one knew what he was thinking. It wasn't until he was forty that he realized how ridiculously naive he had been at twenty. Anyone with a little experience could probably see right through him... just like how he looked at the young team member in front of him now. "Captain, I really didn't!"
"Whether it exists or not."
Han Xiao took another drag of his cigarette and said, "As long as you don't do anything foolish, I don't really know what kind of person Lu Xiu is, but there's one thing I'm sure of: she's very strong, extremely strong."
She's so powerful that if the higher-ups were to bestow upon her the Nine Provinces Martial God tomorrow, I wouldn't be surprised at all. In the entire Nine Provinces, perhaps even the entire Vast Firmament, she's the only one capable of achieving this level of power...
Speaking of which...
Han Xiao looked ahead again.
That hellish scene was once again reflected in his pupils.
to be honest.
That's really scary...
at the same time.
Witch Forest.
Lu Xiu teleported back through the Bonfire and immediately went to take a shower, not because she was particularly fond of cleanliness, but mainly because she needed to relieve her fatigue.
Running through Dark Souls Dungeon can be quite tiring.
Inside the Wooden Cabin.
The sound of running water came from the bathroom, and steam seeped out from under the door, filling the entire living room with a warm atmosphere.
Shen Nian sat on the living room sofa, idly browsing the forum. The forum was currently filled with posts from Sea City, such as "The Dark Souls Anor Londo Descends," "Did Lu Xiu pull something big?" and "The Eclipse Was Terrifying," etc.
It was all something she knew.
So after scrolling for a while, she got bored and turned her attention to the other end of the sofa.
Jian Li was sitting there.
This silver-haired girl, who rarely opened the System Panel except for reporting, surprisingly opened the forum this time, her fair fingers constantly swiping, seemingly searching for something.
Shen Nian was a little curious, so she quietly moved closer, until her chin was almost over Jian Li's shoulder. "What are you looking at?" Jian Li paused, slowly turned her head, and stared at Shen Nian, who was so close to her.
"Don't look at me like that, I'll step back."
Shen Nian was already used to it. She raised her hands in surrender and stepped back a little. When Lu Xiu wasn't around, Jian Li was like this... truly a pure ice queen.
When she's silent, she's like a delicate doll; when she speaks... well, even when she speaks, she's like a doll, basically only saying "uh-huh," "okay," and so on. Shen Nian: "Are you looking for... a dungeon that produces Mental Strength attributes? Wouldn't it be faster to check the Strategy Group's internal information?"
Jian Li slowly withdrew her gaze and looked back at the System Panel in front of her, remaining silent.
Shen Nian realized what was going on. "You've cleared all the dungeons from the Strategy Group, do you want to see if lower-rated dungeons offer any Mental Strength rewards? Because Lu Xiu said our Mental Strength is too low?"
Jian Li's finger, which was swiping the window, stopped in mid-air.
"Speaking of which, when the Eclipse first appeared, your first thought was to run away, right? If I hadn't stopped you, you really would have run to the South City." Shen Nian said cautiously, "I saw your eyes were red back then, were you very worried? And now you feel bad that you can't help?"
Jian Li remained silent.
"And when Lu Xiu came back, you ran out immediately too, we couldn't stop you."
Shen Nian continued, "This is really the first time I've seen you so anxious. When you hugged Lu Xiu, you even bumped her nose..."
The words had barely left his mouth.
Jian Li slowly turned her head, her killing intent erupting.
Why bring up something you shouldn't have said? "I didn't mean anything by it."
Shen Nian shrugged. "I just think Lu Xiu's red nose is kind of cute... Okay, don't glare at me. What I meant was that Lu Xiu wouldn't care about this. When the Eclipse happened, I thought it was Lu Xiu who made the commotion, there was really no need to get so worked up."
The faint sound of water could still be heard from the bathroom.
Jian Li lowered her eyes slightly, recalling once again the solar Eclipse that swallowed the sky above South City, and her feelings at that time.
Lu Xiu really wouldn't mind...
But she didn't want to go through that again...
In the instant the light dimmed, she truly felt an unprecedented fear.
She herself couldn't explain why she was so afraid.
It was a kind of suffocating fear, a feeling as if someone had suddenly gripped your heart...
She feared that Lu Xiu might have an accident, feared that she might really disappear completely.
She didn't want Lu Xiu to disappear!
Absolutely not! Shen Nian looked at Jian Li, who had fallen silent beside her.
After a while.
She gently shook her head, causing her pretty shoulder-length short hair to sway, and at the same time leaned back on the sofa, looking at the ceiling.
She had a vague sense of the girl's innocent and confused thoughts.
After all, she was at least five years older than Jian Li...
Also... just now you said you guessed that it was Lu Xiu who caused the commotion.
But when she saw the Eclipse, her mind went completely blank.
"Too cunning..."
As Shen Nian pondered this, she inexplicably recalled the speed at which Jian Li had run away. Suddenly, she muttered a curse under her breath, then raised a cushion to cover her face and kicked the air with her long legs. "How absurd! I'm so absurd!"
Jian Li snapped out of her daze and gave her a strange look.
At that moment, the sound of water in the bathroom stopped, and shortly after, the bathroom door handle was turned.
Upon hearing the sound, Jian Li and Shen Nian instinctively looked up and saw Lu Xiu walking out barefoot.
She wore a loose white t-shirt that almost covered her upper thighs, paired with shorts, revealing a pair of long, shapely, snow-white legs that tinged with a faint pink.
Seeing this scene...
Like a split screen, two images immediately popped into Shen Nian's mind.
One is the God of War who tore apart the giant eye of the King's Scion today, his blood-red pupils like blood.
One is the one we have now.
That's really outrageous.
Although she had seen it many times, she still had to say that the difference was just too great!
Upon seeing this, all the inexplicable emotions she had felt dissipated.
Lu Xiu noticed her gaze and asked while drying her hair, "Why are you looking at me?"
"Nothing."
Shen Nian shook her head. "I just think... your legs are quite white." Lu Xiu: "?"
