Chapter 125: Are You Here to Play with Me?
🕑 Added 2023-06-26 16:02:28 +0000 UTCAt this moment, Gu Xun’er felt extremely panicked. She had been abandoned by that person called "Hun Xiu" in this unfamiliar space, and now she couldn't help but feel a sense of unease.
The space seemed to be tainted with something impure, with a mysterious and unknown presence lurking within.
Gu Xun’er didn't understand where she was or what was happening. The strange and eerie laughter from earlier had left her bewildered and terrified. She was overwhelmed with fear and anxiety.
"Gulu..."
Gu Xun’er swallowed hard, her eyes darting around vigilantly. The bizarre laughter and the fleeting shadow had shaken her, and she couldn't discern who or what they were.
The known was not frightening; it was the mysterious and the unknown that instilled fear.
As Gu Xun’er trembled with extreme nervousness, her body suddenly felt a tug on her skirt.
Tap!
Her heart skipped a beat, and she became even more panicked. She didn't dare to look down; she was just a child, a Dou Wang at best. Ultimately, she was nothing but an insignificant ant.
Her body trembled even more violently, and she couldn't bring herself to lower her gaze. Gu Xun’er was on the verge of tears, her eyes welling up, overwhelmed by fear and a sense of injustice.
After all, she was just a child.
Why would Hun Xiu treat her like this?
"I'm sorry, Hun Xiu. Please let me out! I want to leave this place. I'll do anything you ask. Hun Xiu, I'm so scared... " Her voice trembled, tinged with a hint of sobbing.
Unfortunately, Hun Xiu didn't appear at all.
It felt as though something was still tugging at her skirt from beneath her feet.
Drip, drop!
Fearful tears streamed down Gu Xun’er's face. Since arriving in the Soul Clan, she had long ceased to be the strong Gu Xun’er of the past.
Every day in the Soul Clan, she lived in constant fear, afraid that one day she would wake up and disappear, or worse, never wake up again.
Or perhaps, even if she did wake up, she would be stripped of everything.
...
Therefore, these years of living in the Soul Clan had made Gu Xun’er even more sensitive, more like a vulnerable girl.
In the midst of her extreme panic, a crisp voice sounded from beneath her skirt, "Big sister, what are you afraid of?"
"Huh?"
Startled by the crisp voice, Gu Xun’er paused. Her tears stopped flowing, and she mustered the courage to lower her head.
At her feet.
There should be a palm-sized little person tugging at her skirt. The crisp sound obviously came from him.
The little person was about the size of a palm, completely black in color, with a cute doll-like face and a flickering wisp of black flames above their head.
The little person flew up to Gu Xun’er and clasped his hands together. On his black, tender little face, a harmless and adorable smile appeared. They spoke in a crisp voice, "Big sister, are you here to play with me?"
"Play?" Gu Xun’er repeated in surprise.
"You?"
Upon hearing the words of the adorable little person in front of her, Gu Xun’er was momentarily taken aback. The black little creature before her was so cute, small and black, yet it didn't diminish his cuteness in the slightest.
Curiously, Gu Xun’er asked, "Little one, what's your name?"
Girls always liked cute things, like the little creature before her. Though it was black, it didn't affect its adorableness. Gu Xun’er had no resistance to this cute little being and reached out to pinch its small face.
And guess what?
It was soft and elastic!
The little creature didn't resist Gu Xun’er's touch. Since Hun Tiandi brought her to the void space, the little creature knew that this young lady would be its playmate for some time.
A playmate that couldn't be eaten.
The little creature spoke in a crisp voice, "Hello, big sister! My name is Xiao Xu. My master likes to call me Xiao Xu, so big sister, you can call me Xiao Xu too!"
"Xiao Xu?" Gu Xun’er repeated, still pinching the little creature's face. "How did your master come up with that name for you?"
Gu Xun’er had no idea that the little creature she was pinching was none other than the former second-in-command of the Soul Clan, the second-ranked Divine Flame on the Divine Flame Ranking.
If she knew, she probably wouldn't dare to pinch it.
If she knew...
She would probably have been scared away long ago.
How could she dare to stay here?
Upon hearing Gu Xun’er's words, Xiao Xu smiled slightly. This smile was extremely adorable, making it hard for people to associate it with the merciless killer, Void Devouring Flame.
In a crisp voice, Xiao Xu replied, "I don't know either. My master likes to call me Xiao Xu, so I became Xiao Xu."
"Oh!" Gu Xun’er nodded slightly. "Xiao Xu, you're so cute."
Thinking of something, Gu Xun’er asked, "Xiao Xu, is this place really called the Void Space?"
Xiao Xu replied, "Yes, it is! This is my home, the Void Space."
"This is your home?"
"The Void Space!"
Upon hearing this, Gu Xun’er couldn't help but be surprised. The Void Space? She had heard of it, of course. But she didn't expect that she would be in the Void Space right now.
It seemed that Hun Xiu's strength was much greater than she had imagined.
If Hun Xiu could freely enter and exit this place, did that mean that Hun Xiu was the owner of the adorable little creature before her?
Gu Xun’er continued to ask, "Cutie, is your master named Hun Xiu?"
"Hmm?" Xiao Xu touched their head and curiously replied in a crisp voice, "Who is Hun Xiu?"
"He is only worthy of smelling my master's fart! My master is..." Xiao Xu was about to speak, but suddenly remembered something and quickly covered their little mouth.
Xiao Xu thought to themselves, "That was close! I almost exposed myself."
Xiao Xu's words completely piqued Gu Xun’er's curiosity. Gu Xun’er asked, "Xiao Xu, who is your master? Why did you stop halfway through?"
She initially thought that Hun Xiu was the owner of the little creature before her, but now it seemed that it wasn't the case at all. The owner of the adorable little creature before her seemed to be someone else entirely, not Hun Xiu.
Xiao Xu shook their head and said seriously, "I can't tell you. My master's name cannot be revealed casually."
Xiao Xu thought to themselves, "What does 'master' mean? They locked someone up in the Void Space. I can't eat her and I have to pretend to be cute and play with her. It's so tiring!”
“I'm the second-ranked existence on the Divine Flame Ranking. I never expected that one day I would have to pretend to be cute and play with a little girl here. If this gets out, my reputation will be completely ruined."
"Really?" Gu Xun’er clearly didn't believe it. She took out a candy she had bought before from her storage ring and said, "Cutie, if you tell me your master's name, I'll give you this candy. It's really delicious."
Gu Xun’er tried to tempt the little creature, thinking that it wouldn't be able to resist the lure of candy. If it did resist, it could only mean that she hadn't offered enough candies.
