Is there any hope for me, who proposed to the world-destroying empress at the very beginning?

"No flash?"

"Ok?"

Ning Zhexian raised an eyebrow, vaguely sensing Su Liang's teasing.

Looking up, she saw the boy in front of her smiling broadly, as if he didn't believe her answer.

"Let me tell you, the strange movements of the ferocious beasts in the Yunmeng Great Swamp this time were all caused by me."

"If you want to live, leave now!"

After Ning Zhexian finished speaking, the young man in front of her showed even more astonishment, which made her feel a mix of emotions.

When has she ever been suspected like this?!

Ning Zhexian's chest heaved violently, and finally he gave a cold command.

"I'm not joking with you. I'll say it again, right now, I want you to get out of my sight!"

"Did you say that?"

Su Liang slowly stood up, and before leaving, he made sure to confirm again.

"Everything I say is true."

Ning Zhexian gave another ambiguous affirmation.

Then.

Su Liang didn't want to stay there any longer, so he left gracefully and disappeared from Ning Zhexian's sight.

Ning Zhexian stared intently at the figure that disappeared before her eyes, and firmly remembered the man and his name in her heart.

It's not about repaying her, but about fulfilling my promise once her eyesight is restored!

After all, winning a woman's heart doesn't necessarily have to be about having feelings for her.

Sooner or later... I'll make you kneel before me and realize your mistakes.

The last vestige of stubbornness in Ning Zhexian's eyes gradually vanished without a trace, and even her breathing became increasingly subdued.

The cave was deserted, and he was all alone.

Ning Zhexian usually resides in the quiet, cold palace, but for some reason... she feels inexplicably lonely at this moment.

The absence of Su Liang's noisy voice made her feel somewhat uneasy.

Her strength was rapidly drained, and she lay there on the ground.

Whenever she recalls what just happened, a cold glint flashes in her eyes, followed by a blush rising on her cheeks.

I've never been treated like that by a man before!

I truly loathe myself for this.

If the disciples of Qinghan Palace or the people of the world were to see this expression, her cold and aloof demeanor would likely be described in a completely different way.

It was late at night.

Suddenly, a mournful howl began to echo outside, reverberating throughout the land.

Closer and closer.

(To bring shame upon oneself—that's a truly scathing and concise assessment. Let's see what happens next week.)

Chapter 77 What do you think is your advantage?

Ning Zhexian took in these sounds, and his melancholy expression suddenly froze.

She knew perfectly well why the sound came from there!

"So fast!"

Ning Zhexian knew that his location had been exposed, so he had no choice but to drag his tired body out of the cave.

Unfortunately, with her current physical condition, which is worse than that of an ordinary person, how could she possibly escape?

Previously, Su Liang was by her side, but now she is all alone, and she cannot escape the pursuit under the cover of night.

After taking a few steps forward, a pair of scarlet eyes flashed behind Ning Zhexian.

Those eyes were fixed on her back, and a pungent, fishy smell began to waft through the air.

Ning Zhexian hadn't lost her instinct for danger along with her transformation, so the moment those eyes appeared, she was already on alert.

But what's the use?

With a gust of wind, Ning Zhexian staggered back several steps.

Before them lay a ferocious beast from the Yunmeng Marsh, named the Gu Diao.

Its face resembles a sculpture, and it has horns on its head.

Upon seeing Ning Zhexian's gaze meet itss, the Gu Diao let out a cry like that of a baby.

This is the cry of the Gu Diao, and this sound, once it spreads, will surely alarm other strange beasts in the vicinity.

At that point, Ning Zhexian alone will have no way out.

Just as she hesitated, the Gu Diao pounced on her, the strong, pungent stench almost making her faint.

Ning Zhexian also knew that he was no match for the ferocious beast before him.

Even if they manage to escape from the clutches of the ferocious beasts, they will have already alerted the other strange beasts in the area. At that time, the entire Yunmeng Marsh will be a net of heaven and earth, a veritable hell on earth.

And she will be forever buried beneath this purgatory.

But she didn't want to give up easily, so Ning Zhexian chose to rebel.

Although she avoided vital areas, she was still sent flying by the impact.

Seeing the previously terrifying human now appear so weak, the Gu Diao no longer held back and pounced on Ning Zhexian once more.

If she can't dodge this attack, she's doomed!

Ning Zhexian stared intently at the impending killing blow, unwilling to accept his fate. In this dying moment, the last image that flashed through his mind was...

"Whoosh!"

At the critical moment, a cold glint suddenly rose from the bright night sky.

A cold glint of blood-red light instantly illuminated the pitch-black night.

With the Broken Army Spear raised, and under the enhancement of the God and Demon Not Myself state, even though the Gu Diao's body was as hard as ten thousand pieces of paper, it was still pierced by Su Liang's spear.

He lightly flicked the Broken Army Spear, and the Gu Diao's body was flung away.

Having done all this, Su Liang quickly approached Ning Zhexian. From the surrounding wilderness came the cries of strange beasts.

The sound of its neighing.

Danger was drawing ever closer, and Su Liang once again pulled her into his arms, disappearing into the wilderness in an instant.

When the other ferocious beasts arrived, all they found was the body of the Gu Diao lying on the ground.

...

After escaping, the two quickly found a safe place.

Su Liang continued to gaze into the depths of the night, while Ning Zhexian lay quietly on the cliff behind him.

Suddenly, Ning Zhexian spoke up and questioned him.

"Did you intend to use me as bait from the very beginning to lure them into making a move?"

Her question was met with a cold laugh from Su Liang, who then said...

"You're overthinking it. I just couldn't bring myself to let you fend for yourself, so I came back."

"Who knew that when I came back I would see you almost being eaten?"

"On another note, is this how you treat yet another person who saved your life?"

"He's just a pushover."

Ning Zhexian curled her lip, her tone no longer as aloof as before, but she still couldn't help but sneer.

"I really don't understand how someone like you has survived this long."

however.

This time, Su Liang spoke much less, completely ignoring Ning Zhexian.

This made the third-ranked person in the world feel extremely suppressed. He wanted to speak, but was constrained by his status. If he didn't speak, he would feel very awkward.

She coughed lightly, a look of realization flashing in her eyes.

"I understand now, all men in the world are the same in character."

"It's not enough for him to just want my body; he also wants to be a hero and seduce me as well."

I advise you to give up!

It must be said that these words were extremely successful.

Su Liang was astonished by her paranoia and couldn't help but retort sarcastically.

"You said you're the third best person in the world, the really powerful kind?"

Ning Zhexian was surprised for a moment, then nodded.

"good."

Su Liang asked again,

"That means you've been cultivating for a long time."

Ning the Immortal had no doubts.
