Liang Jian: I have a canteen

After listening to Xu San's words, Huan Ji agreed without hesitation, "Okay!"

"So what are you going to do about it?"

Huanji began to hesitate. She felt that the contents inside would definitely enhance her power, and by a significant margin.

In these turbulent times, this kind of advancement was what he wanted.

However, she also knew that something immediate could cause her to lose her sense of self.

Is it possible to gain power without losing self-awareness?

You can not have it both ways!

But Huanji not only wanted fish, she also wanted bear's paw.

Seeing that Huanji was starting to hesitate, Xu San didn't urge her; he just waited quietly.

He also had his own thoughts, and he could roughly guess what Huanji was thinking at this moment.

He was considering whether or not to eliminate the Phantom Princess, now that she had truly gained power.

Xu San didn't feel that Huan Ji was that dangerous before, but if she really gained power this time, it would be too dangerous.

It really needs to be eliminated.

Even if it has great value, it still needs to be disposed of.

Time passed slowly, and Huanji was still pondering the gains and losses.

It was still dark, but it was the darkest hour before dawn.

In the darkness, Huanji finally spoke, "Help me open the box."

"Okay!" Xu San agreed.

"But before you open it, I hope you can cut her once, like the kind of swordsmanship you use to cut the lock core," Huanji said softly.

"You saw through me!" Xu San chuckled and scratched his head. "Mm!" Huan Ji responded, then bowed deeply. "Please, I'll grant you any request you make from now on."

"Hmm!" Xu San asked with slight doubt, "If I asked you to betray the Kii Ninja Club, would you?"

"Yes!" Huanji agreed after only three seconds of consideration.

Xu San exhaled, sensing that this Huan Ji seemed to be a woman with a story.

Forget it, he's not very interested in the story of Huan Ji anymore.

He was also interested in what was inside, and it would be ideal if he could take it for himself.

Readjusting his state, Xu San quickly entered a state of "roundness" with rhythmic breathing.

Xu San has now compressed the circle to about one meter. Within this range, he can sense any movement, even some internal changes within matter.

But there is one exception!
That is, there seems to be a cocoon inside the box.

He couldn't perceive the inside of the cocoon!
If it cannot be sensed, the opening of the wormhole cannot be accurately controlled.

trouble
Xu San clutched the hilt of his knife, his breathing steady, but beads of sweat were already seeping from his forehead!

A moment later, a bead of sweat slid down his chin and onto the ground.

The cabin where Xu San and Huan Ji are currently located is almost completely dark, so all five senses except for sight are heightened.
The sound of sweat beads hitting the ground was easily heard by Huanji, whose hearing was already very sharp.

"Is it difficult?" Huanji asked softly.

"Phew~~~" Xu San exhaled, "It's alright, but I don't know what's inside. There's another layer protecting her inside the box, which I can't accurately sense. After I draw my knife, I don't know what might happen."

“Then let’s draw our swords!” Huanji said firmly. “I feel that she is only interested in me and should not pose a threat to you.”

should
Xu San didn't believe that!

But his intense curiosity compelled him to swing the Murasame sword with all his might. (End of Chapter)
