Chapter 572: But
The prophet girl let out a long "oh" and answered presciently and teasingly: "But?"
"..."
The man choked up, but still said unconvincedly: "But the difficulty of the seventieth floor and above is the difficulty of the Void Refining Stage. Even the third and sixth senior brothers can't climb a few floors, let alone she can pass it!"
The gorgeously dressed prophet girl was idly shaking the bell hanging around her waist, which made a crisp sound.
She sneered disdainfully: "Tsk, now you can compare Little Senior Sister with Third Senior Brother and Sixth Senior Brother, doesn't that prove something?"
"Even if I stop at the 70th floor, I'm still better than you guys."
"..."
The man was furious and said, "How can a physical cultivator over 300 years old compare with the young Second and Sixth Brothers? They are only stronger in the early stage, but they will suffer in the end!"
"If she's really that powerful, she could just climb to the 80th floor."
The prophet girl had a rosy face and clapped her hands with a smile: "It's urgent, it's urgent~"
"Don't tell me, I think Junior Sister is a dark horse. Maybe she can really reach the 80th floor."
The man held his forehead and smiled bitterly, "Bai Wuchang, I think the hairpin on your head has really stuck into your brain. You are a little crazy."
Then he thought of something and said with a wicked smile, "Let's make a bet. If she can't reach the 80th floor, you will give me the Golden Wind Jade Dew that I got a few days ago."
Bai Wuchang raised his eyebrows: "What did you lose to give me?"
"I will give you my treasured Yi Yao Dan. Isn't that what you want to use to break through?"
Bai Wuchang shook his head and thought for a moment, his eyes eager to make a move, "Now that you mention it, I am really a little moved."
The man's eyes flashed with success, "Then what are you waiting for? It's better to act than to be moved!"
Bai Wuchang hesitated for a moment and nodded. Just when everyone thought she was really crazy, Bai Wuchang suddenly made a face.
"Lululu, I won't gamble. I'm going to report to the sect that someone is starting a gambling game in the Gewu Tower!"
Then he jumped into the next floor like a gust of wind.
Everyone: "..."
Decades have passed, hasn’t Bai Wuchang’s milk teeth been replaced yet?
Always like a child who never grows up.
"Tsk, it's because you don't dare to gamble and are afraid of losing, and you don't have much confidence in Qiqi." The man who failed to cheat others was very disappointed.
Everyone nodded, right?
The man glanced at the level list again and sneered, "How ridiculous! If she can really reach the 80th level, I will skip training in the middle of the night and run naked at the Sect Master Peak! Humph!"
……
Feng Zhiyi and Cangjie's cultivation is one level lower than Zhu Jiu's. They are only in the initial stage of fusion, and it is already a bit difficult for them to pass level 70.
The difficulty of this level is three times that of level 69.
When Cangjie appeared in the rest area in a rather embarrassed state, he saw Feng Zhiyi already sitting there to regulate his breathing. Opposite him, a 1.8-meter-tall, sturdy female cultivator appeared slowly, holding her chest with a pale face...
There is only one word I can describe this scene: classic.
It feels like there are two ghosts lingering around.
Zhu Jiu looked at Cang Jie in surprise and said, "What a coincidence, Sixth Senior Brother."
Feng Zhiyi had just completed a cycle of circulation when he opened his eyes and looked at the two of them.
He was a little surprised, but said nothing.
He didn't say it, Zhu Jiu said it.
"Sixth Senior Brother, weren't you one step ahead on the sixty-fifth floor? I didn't expect that you were one step behind us on the seventieth floor. Oh no, two steps."
Zhu Jiu said in surprise: "It is fate that brings us together thousands of miles apart."
Then he pondered again, "Could it be that Sixth Senior Brother was waiting for us on purpose?"
"Sixth Senior Brother is such a good man!"
Cangjie: “…”
I really want to sew this guy's mouth shut.
Feng Zhiyi listened to Zhu Jiu's words, analyzed them carefully in his mind, and defended Cang Jie: "He is not that kind of person, he is just a little slow."
Cangjie: “…”
Eight thousand words of vulgar language flashed through his mind.
Are these two people sick?
In terms of combat experience, Cangjie is indeed far behind Feng Zhiyi, this is indisputable.
But he also benefited a lot. Besides, being mocked for being weak was a common occurrence for him in the past, and he didn't feel ashamed or angry at all.
I just feel that Feng Zhiyi and Qiqi are like two oversized flies, flying around non-stop and being annoying.
"Don't you need to practice? If not, move aside and go to the next level." Cangjie responded indifferently.
"No, I won't go." Feng Zhiyi responded briefly and closed his eyes to continue practicing.
Zhu Jiu followed suit and said, "If you need it, I won't go."
Cangjie: “…”
He would rather stay with Chu Yi, at least he wouldn't have this suffocating feeling of stepping in shit.
……
In the end, Feng Zhiyi rested first and went to the 71st floor.
He looked at the two of them before leaving.
"I'll go first."
Zhu Jiu nodded, "Third Brother, have a safe journey."
Cangjie didn't even open his eyes.
There were only two people left in the rest area, and Cangjie spoke first.
"Feng Zhiyi has left. No one here appreciates your pretense."
After so many levels, he didn't believe that the other party was really as weak as he appeared. He was sure that the other party was a master pretending to be weak and was very powerful.
Lord Xiaoyao may have really put his heart into choosing her.
Zhu Jiu covered his chest again, seeming a little sad, "It's unfair, Sixth Senior Brother, I have a heart disease, and I have been hanging on for life on each level, how can I have the energy to pretend."
"If you don't believe me, just touch it and you'll know."
As she spoke, she had already walked up to Cangjie, squatted down, puffed out her chest, and looked as if she was ready to be examined.
So the two of them were very close, and Cangjie could feel the unstable breath spraying with a faint fragrance.
He felt very strange, but unlike facing other people, he strangely didn't feel repulsed even though he was so close to her.
He was lost in thought for a moment, and then thought... check? How to check?
he:"!!!"
Who's gonna check her out!?
Cang Jie suddenly stepped back, and bitter flowers bloomed around him. His smile faded slightly, revealing a cold murderous aura.
If he had not been unable to take action due to the rest period, he would have already attacked the opponent.
"Stay away from me." His voice was clear and dangerous, containing a deep warning.
Zhu Jiu was forced back by him and sighed in frustration, "Why does Sixth Senior Brother hate me so much? Third Senior Brother likes me very much."
Cang Jie's red lips stand out against her jade-like face.
He habitually raised a cold smile, "He likes everyone, but I like no one."
At the same time, everyone prefers Feng Zhiyi and no one likes him.
He didn't care, but... it seemed like Zhu Jiu didn't care either.
The eyelashes under the red silk trembled, Cangjie's face turned two shades paler, and his hands on his knees tightened slightly.
When I felt empty inside, I suddenly heard the woman opposite me say sadly, "But I really like Sixth Senior Brother, but Sixth Senior Brother only has Zhu Jiu in his heart. But it doesn't matter. The secret love of youth may be the chaos of one person."
She looked up at the roof sadly at a 45-degree angle, revealing a melancholy but strong jaw.
Very powerful.
Cangjie looked away and said, "According to the customs of the Nine Netherworld, people over 200 years old are no longer young."
Zhu Jiu: “…”
Is this the point?
"Also, don't come near me, I don't like you." His tone turned cold, and he stood up and walked away. His back was warm but distant, leaving only a faint warm fragrance.
Zhu Jiu: “?”
Xingjun said as he was writing the test paper: "Hey? Was Cangjie so difficult to tease before?"
Zhu Jiu seemed to be thinking about something. "Maybe it was because I was weaker before and couldn't do anything to bully him. Now that I can resist, it seems I have no choice but to respect him."
Xingjun saw through everything and sneered: "If he really takes the bait, you will be unhappy, and then you will be depressed that he will fall in love with someone else."
He understood Zhu Jiuyou too well. She was a scumbag, but she still expected the men in the group to remain loyal to her. This was even more scumbag than scumbag.
But it's understandable. An unfaithful man is not worthy of his daughter Youyou.
Zhu Jiu just pretended not to hear the embarrassing words and said to Cang Jie as if nothing had happened: "Sixth Senior Brother, I'll wait for you in the back."
"No need to tell." The latter was very inhumane.
"Oh, okay." Zhu Jiu said disappointedly, and went to the next floor happily.
……
In order to control the points, Zhu Jiu wasted a lot of time on each level.
Of course, it was a lot of time for her.
When she passed the seventy-first floor, Feng Zhiyi was still fighting. Zhu Jiu didn't wait any longer and climbed to the seventy-fifth floor alone.
I just arrived at the rest area out of boredom, and saw Chu Yi preparing to go to the next floor.
The two looked at each other.
Zhu Jiu's face was pale, he covered his chest, and held on to the wall, unable to bear the burden. His body was limp, like a dying patient.
"Second Brother, it's great to see you at the limit. I am indeed as good as you."
"I have been fighting for so long, dragging my broken body, just for this moment."
Chu Yi: “…”
He stared at Zhu Jiu and was silent for a moment.
First of all, he was very shocked, because according to expectations, the other party should not be on the same level as him.
His cultivation was one level higher than his opponent's. The latter had climbed up from the 60th floor, while he had climbed up from the 70th floor.
How come we met on the 75th floor?
Is it that easy between the 60th and 70th floors? Or is he too slow?
Chu Yi began to doubt his life.
At the same time, I also realized that there was something wrong with this person. She was very strong.
But seeing how weak and powerless she looked, Chu Yi also concluded that she had reached her limit as she said, while his limit was still very high.
Chu Yi regained his lost dignity and felt relieved.
Out of recognition of Qiqi's strength, he finally stopped making sarcastic remarks and nodded indifferently.
Very reserved, with an attitude of not interfering with others.
Of course that's not possible. Zhu Jiu still holds a grudge and won't let him go easily.
She panted weakly twice and said with emotion: "Second Brother, it is indeed much more difficult above the 70th floor. It took me an hour to get from the 70th to the 75th floor. It is so difficult."
"..." Chu Yi's face didn't look good.
How long did it take him? Oh, more than two hours.
Chu Yi was puzzled. How did this woman get through?
Zhu Jiu said again: "Second Brother, you must have rested here for a long time, otherwise how could I, who is mediocre, meet you, who is a genius?"
Chu Yi's face was dark, he stared at Zhu Jiu coldly, and uttered four words from between his teeth, "Are you very proud?"
Zhu Jiu: "Ah? Me? No, I'm just telling the truth."
"Also, Second Senior Brother, you need to work harder to catch up with Fourth Senior Brother, otherwise if you lose you will have to bark like a dog, which is so embarrassing."
He pretends to be innocent, pure and innocent.
"...Do I need your reminder?" Chu Yi choked subconsciously, and then a strange sense of familiarity suddenly surged in his heart.
——That’s a kind of stress that comes from being cheated too many times.
The most important thing is that he really doesn’t think that there is anyone stronger than him at the same level, except Zhu Jiu.
And there is only Zhu Jiu in this world who, no matter how many times he changes his skin, he must confront him as soon as he meets him.
Chu Yi's heart skipped a beat. The more he thought about it, the more frightened he became. Looking at Zhu Jiu's expression, he suddenly felt his scalp tingling.
"you……"
Zhu Jiu was also shocked when he saw his suspicious look. Could it be that Chu Yi has become more sensitive because he has been deceived so many times?
Both of them were very nervous and looked at each other.
A dark light flashed across Zhu Jiu's eyes, and he took a tentative step forward, "Second Brother, what's wrong with you? Why are you looking at me like that?"
Chu Yi subconsciously took a step back, but soon realized that this behavior was embarrassing, so he quickly stood still.
He walked a few steps left and right, pretending that he was not frightened, but just had itchy soles and needed to pace a few steps.
The air began to condense, Chu Yi felt the pressure doubled, his mind was racing.
It may not be Zhu Jiu. How could she run into the trap so quickly? There are many people with similar personalities in the world.
...Why not give it a try? If it’s Zhu Jiu, he will definitely be able to pass the ninety-nine floors.
Chu Yi was certain in his heart, and soon his expression turned arrogant.
"Getting to this level doesn't mean anything. You are eager to pass the level, so you must have used a lot of auxiliary means to squeeze your potential. This behavior will only make you dry up quickly. That's it."
He wanted to stimulate Zhu Jiu to develop a rebellious mentality.
Zhu Jiu glanced at him and nodded: "You are right, so I will take a short break and then I will quit. Hey, I am not as energetic as you young people when I am old."
She sat down and rubbed her legs as if she had arthritis.
Chu Yi choked: "..."
"...But then again, a woman's death is caused by a young man. This is your first time entering the Gewu Tower. Don't you want to make a splash and prove yourself? If the level is high enough, your identity as the true disciple's junior sister will be set in stone, right?"
Zhu Jiu was thoughtful. "You're right, but I don't have much savings. I borrowed a lot of money to pass the previous levels, so I'm a little tight on money now."
"I know my own limitations, so I decided not to get beaten."
Chu Yi narrowed his eyes suspiciously. Want something? So greedy.
Could it really be Zhu Jiu?
He stared at her without blinking, then smiled and said casually, "Why, do you need me to give you my life storage ring?"
Zhu Jiu was surprised, "Is there such a good thing?"
Chu Yi tried to find a flaw on the other person's face, but there was none.
He touched the ring finger of his left hand and found a completely unfamiliar pattern.
His natal ring had long been given to Zhu Jiu in Jiuqu Shuozhou.
Chu Yi turned his eyes away coldly, "What are you daydreaming about? Are you worthy of it?"
Zhu Jiu tilted his head and asked with a smile: "Then what will you give me?"
"You dare to ask for it without any evidence. How greedy." Chu Yi sneered.
He has an extremely handsome face, but he is also mean and arrogant. Anyone who sees him would stay away from him.
Zhu Jiu didn't care: "Just tell me whether you will give it or not?"
impossible.
But when Chu Yi met her smiling eyes, he suddenly couldn't say no. He felt weird and a little impatient, "I'll give you three bottles of Saint-level Soul-Restoring Pills and Blood-Healing Pills."
Zhu Jiu showed a reluctant expression, "I am your newly minted junior sister, so I am only given this little. According to the setting of six men and one woman, I should be the group's favorite."
