"How did Xuan Ya die? Haven't you learned your lesson? Here's what we'll do, beautiful lady, release me right now, and I promise I won't tell anyone about what happened today!"
"Also, if you arrest me, what will happen to my stones? They're top-quality goods. If someone takes them, the Jade Pivot Sect will lose a lot of money. I don't want to pay for it myself; I'm poor!"
"In all these years in the sect, I've never embezzled a single penny. On the contrary, I've always been subsidizing others. Look how pitiful I am! Think about when you worked for Xuan Ya. Didn't he exploit you? Didn't he make you work like crazy without giving you any real benefits?"
Gu Yu is desperately trying to elicit sympathy.
Bai Xiao felt a slight wavering in his heart.
When she worked for Xuan Ya, she was indeed constantly exploited, without any extra pay, and was scolded every day!
Many times she wanted to quit!
But in order to survive, they have no choice but to swallow their anger and keep quiet.
etc!
Bai Xiao suddenly regained consciousness.
Damn it, she's the Lord of the Nether Soul Hall now!
No one dared to exploit her anymore!
"What nonsense are you spouting? Who dares to exploit me? I'm the boss in the Nether Soul Hall!" Bai Xiao sneered.
When the sob story didn't work, Gu Yu's eyes darted around, and she adopted a shameless expression, rubbing against Bai Xiao's legs.
"How old are you, beautiful lady? You must have many suitors, right? Look at me, I'm blessed with good looks, and you're now the Lord of the Nether Soul Hall, and a great Great Emperor, so powerful, how about considering taking me as your Little White?"
"I didn't mean anything by it. Look, I've been captured by you now. Even if I go back safely, people will spread rumors about us, and they might even accuse me of colluding with the Nether Soul Hall. In that case, I'll never be able to clear my name!"
"Why don't you just take me in? I'd love to spend every day with this beautiful lady! And I'm easy to take care of. If I'm hungry, I'll feed me; if I'm thirsty, I'll give me water. If you're in a bad mood, I'll let you hit me or yell at me—I'll be your punching bag! As long as you don't kill me, I..."
Gu Yu unlocks the secret to mischievousness.
A vein throbbed on Bai Xiao's forehead, and he roared at him, unable to contain himself any longer, "Shut up!!!"
The Gu Yu was so frightened that it swallowed hard.
This person is truly resolute in his faith; he's not easily fooled...
Bai Xiao gritted his teeth and said, "I'm not killing you because I want to use you to lure Xie Feng. The person I want to kill is him, understand?"
Gu Yu exclaimed in shock, "You're courting death! Don't you know how many powerful figures surround my master?!"
Bai Xiao said smugly, "I've already investigated. Xie Feng only has two Peak Great Emperor by his side, but one of the women disappeared a few days ago. Now there's only the white-robed man left. I'm also Peak Great Emperor, what's there to fear?!"
The Gu Yu fell silent.
Damn it, she's really not easy to fool...
" Bai Xiao, are you just going to wait like this?" Gu Yu asked.
"I'm waiting to see if your master will care about your life or death."
"Then you can just keep waiting."
"What's the meaning?"
My master has gone out, and I don't know when he will return.
"Out? Where did you go?"
Bai Xiao's sharp eyes were fixed on Gu Yu.
Gu Yu shrugged, spread his hands, and said, "It's my master. I'm just a lowly disciple. How would I know what my master is going out to do?!"
"I'll wait here until he comes back!"
"Then you won't kill me for a long time... I'm hungry, I'll die if I don't eat."
Gu Yu has an air of fearlessness.
Bai Xiao gritted his teeth. "Then you can starve to death! What a nuisance!"
Gu Yu said, "Then do you still want to use me to seduce Master?"
A vein throbbed on Bai Xiao's forehead. She rolled her eyes, flicked her sleeve, and left the cave.
Seeing this, Gu Yu hurriedly tried to slip out, but as soon as he reached the entrance of the cave, he was bounced back by an invisible barrier.
"This woman is far too wary! No, I have to find a way to escape. What if she loses her patience one day and actually kills me?"
Gu Yu gritted his teeth in hatred.
"What bad things are you saying about me?" Bai Xiao strode into the cave, his face cold, and tossed him a few wild fruits.
Gu Yu squatted down to pick up some wild peaches and pears.
The Bai Xiao looked down at him coldly and said, "Eat!"
Gu Yu took a bite and said with a complicated expression, "It's bitter and astringent, it's awful!"
Bai Xiao glared at him fiercely. "Eat it or don't, it's up to you! You pampered young master! People like you should be thrown into underground mines, working day and night, and whipped!"
Gu Yu shrank back and whispered, "I haven't offended you, why do you hate our rich young master so much..."
Bai Xiao rolled his eyes, too lazy to say anything.
Gu Yu sat on the ground and quickly finished eating the fruit.
Half a day later.
After waiting for a long time without anyone arriving, Bai Xiao grew impatient. She glanced at the Dusk outside the cave and muttered to herself, "Have those escorts arrived yet? They're completely unreliable; I might as well find them myself!"
Snap!
She snapped her fingers.
Soon, four soldiers appeared outside. These men were dressed in black robes and surrounded by black mist, clearly bearing the insignia of the Nether Soul Hall.
"Lord, what are your orders?"
"Go to the Xuanji Jade Pivot Sect in the Qingli Realm and tell them that the Gu Yu is here!"
"Yes!"
The soldiers turned to leave, but the next second, a Sword Qi flashed, and all four men fell to the ground!
Blood splattered across the sky!
Bai Xiao's brow twitched, and he instantly became alert.
Outside the cave entrance appeared a man in a green robe, his expression cold and composed!
"You've finally arrived, Xie Feng!" Bai Xiao tilted his head and smiled slightly at him.
"Master!"
Gu Yu's eyes lit up, as if he had seen a savior descending from the sky.
He rushed over, hid behind Xie Feng, and poured out his grievances frantically.
"Master! Thank goodness! You've finally come to save me! I've been living a life that's worse than an inhuman one here. This woman has been torturing me! She hasn't let me eat properly! And she's been threatening me! If you had come any later, she would have killed me!"
Gu Yu started crying as she spoke, but it was all talk and no action.
Bai Xiao curled his lip and rolled his eyes to the sky.
But she didn't want to prove anything. Let them abuse her if they want; she's the bad guy in Gu Yu's eyes now anyway!
Then let's just be bad guys to the end!
Being a villain is the most fun!
Bai Xiao sized up Xie Feng, then snorted coldly, "With your current cultivation level, you can't beat me."
She was at the Peak Great Emperor, while Xie Feng was only at the Advanced Saint Ancestor!
That's a whole different level!
Xie Feng smiled slightly and said, "I never said I wanted to fight you."
Bai Xiao frowned. "What do you mean?"
Xie Feng calmly stepped aside with his hands behind his back.
Two people stepped into the cave. They were tall and imposing, their figures silhouetted against the light and shadow, resembling awe-inspiring War God!
