Xiao Bai could not see the ruins filling his vision, could not hear the urgent, piercing alarm bells by his ears, nor could his divine sense detect the spiritual pressure layered around the Internal Examination Room.
Only a crisp female voice, like Drunken Sword Cutting Jade, echoed beside him until it was deafening.
Xiao Bai did not dare move his body or shift his eyes.
For one fleeting instant, he saw killing intent in the eyes of the slovenly yet beautiful woman before him.
The killing intent was not particularly strong, but it was casual.
She could kill him, or she could choose not to.
That was roughly the state she was in.
From any angle, Xiao Bai found this woman powerful enough, beautiful enough, and wicked enough.
Yet in her eyes, Xiao Bai did not see the subtle gleam that had been in Jade Flask's or Mu Yun's eyes.
That made things rather difficult.
Xiao Bai firmly believed that when narrow paths met, the brave would win. He believed in the Modifier's power, gritted his teeth, and absolutely refused to cower.
Feeling the cool fingertips beneath his jaw and the alcohol scent from the woman's deep cleavage, Xiao Bai said expressionlessly,
"A body is just a body. Where does this talk of a golden body come from? Any physically normal man can break it, can't he?"
The slovenly woman did not believe Xiao Bai's nonsense at all.
"Is that so? Even getting close to Master has been harder than climbing to heaven for me. The eight hundred kinds of poison left in my body still have not been fully purged. Otherwise, I would have formed a Nascent Soul long ago."
Don't rush. I'll make you form a Nascent Soul sooner or later!
Xiao Bai carefully examined the woman's face.
