Chapter 2437 - 2437 Sneak Attack

2437 Sneak Attack

They were Jiu Long and Xi Yan.

Ever since they last saw each other at the G.o.d-Killing Tumulus, she hadn’t seen them again.

She sized up the two of them in detail.

On the surface, they didn’t look too different from before. However, they both became thinner, and their expressions were more lethargic. Clearly, they didn’t have a good time during this period.

Jiu Long and Xi Yan walked over and stopped before the Holy Jade of Chaos. They greeted respectfully, “Apologies, First Deity. Jiu Long (Xi Yan) came late!”

Mu Qinghe’s expression did not change. “It’s fine. Xi Yan, the Armory Refinement Master life-and-death challenge has already started. Go ahead.”

“OK.” Xi Yan acknowledged him and directly walked over.

Jiu Long pa.s.sed around the Holy Jade of Chaos and walked inside. Suddenly, he paused in his tracks and slightly shrunk his eyes!

Chu Liuyue raised her brows slightly. Meeting his gaze, she calmly greeted, “Ninth Deity, long time no see. Have you been well lately?”

The corner of Jiu Long’s lips twitched. Doesn’t she know if we’re well!? If not for her, Xi Yan and I wouldn’t have been locked up in the Fantasy Divine Sea and suffered so much!

However, Jiu Long only dared to think about this and definitely didn’t want to say it personally.

The other party was the Emperor’s person!

At the very beginning, it was fine that he offended her because he did not know her background. But now that he had already suffered, how would he make the same mistake again?

Jiu Long took a deep breath in and forced a smile. “P-pretty good. Thanks for asking.”

Once he said this, the crowd was speechless. What’s with Ninth Deity? Why is he suddenly so polite to Chu Liuyue?!

All sorts of doubtful gazes gathered in unison, s.h.i.+fting between Jiu Long and Chu Liuyue. Anyone could tell that something was amiss!

Even Chu Liuyue herself was stunned. When we met at the G.o.d-Killing Tumulus previously, this Ninth Deity was still very prideful and commanding. He didn’t care about me, Qi Han, or Lu Feng. Why did his att.i.tude change so much in the blink of an eye?

When she wanted to ask further, Jiu Long spoke first. “If there’s nothing else, I’ll go over first?”

Chu Liuyue: “…Go ahead.”

Upon hearing this, Jiu Long instantly heaved a sigh of relief and hurriedly left. It seemed like there was someone chasing him from behind.

Su Li and the rest looked at Chu Liuyue in unison.

In no time, they fell into an extremely strange atmosphere.

After some time, Xiao Ran could not help but ask, “You… and the Ninth Deity know each other?”

Chu Liuyue thought for a moment before replying, “He almost killed Qi Han and Lu Feng, and he even wanted to s.n.a.t.c.h something from me. Does… that count?”

Xiao Ran: “Then… why is he behaving like this?”

Chu Liuyue shrugged. How do I know? Back then, those two people suddenly disappeared. Their current att.i.tudes are even stranger. I can’t understand it myself.

Besides, even though Jiu Long seemed polite to me on the surface… In actual fact, he seems like he wants to avoid me badly. There is clearly something wrong, but I didn’t do anything, right?

Seeing that Chu Liuyue was confused, the few of them could only keep their doubts.

Only Su Li muttered, “These deities are so confusing.”

…

Jiu Long came to Yu Qian and the rest. Similarly, he also faced the silent interrogation from the crowd.

Of course, he knew why they were looking at him in that manner, but he couldn’t say anything now! Hence, Jiu Long could only brave himself and walk over helplessly.

The moment he stood still, Fan Yunxiao could not help but ask, “Jiu Long, what’s with you?”

Jiu Long’s heart skipped a beat. “N-nothing much.”

“Nothing? If it’s nothing, why did you treat Shangguan Yue in that manner?”

“I—”

“There’s so many people present, but you only greeted her.”

Jiu Long broke out into a cold sweat. How am I supposed to answer that!?

He instinctively looked up at Mu Qinghe above.

Back when he and Xi Yan were punished to stay in the Fantasy Divine Sea, the First Deity had instructed them that some matters couldn’t be announced.

Since she was the Emperor’s person, then this status… could only be revealed when the Emperor was willing.

Now that the Emperor wasn’t here, he did not dare to expose the matter. Hence, he could only hold it in.

“I-I didn’t…”

Before he could finish, a loud sound came from the back!

Everyone looked over!

Yu Qian knitted his brows. “She’s about to form her pill!”

This ‘she’ wasn’t referring to Eighth Deity Shu Jing but… Xiao Ba!

Together with the loud and heavy , the pill in the cauldron was finally formed!

Xiao Ba was elated as she reached over to pick it up with her bare hands. But at this moment, an even more shocking impact was heard beside her!

Boom!

At that moment, sparks flew everywhere!

Shu Jing had formed her pill closely after Xiao Ba!

She slammed against the cauldron harshly.

The vigorous and shocking force instantly spread toward the surroundings!

n.o.body saw that she had slightly moved her fingertips when she hit the cauldron.

A secret ripple silently spread toward Xiao Ba!

Xiao Ba was shocked. Before she could do anything else, her first reaction was to pounce over and protect her Green Gla.s.s Scarlet Fire Pill!

Bam!

The strong ferocious aura instantly hit her harshly!

Pfft—

Her body shook as she spat out a mouthful of blood!
