I'm going to kill everyone who calls me Hill.

The Herrscher of Knowledge said with confidence.

"Ah this... Is it okay for you to slander your old boss like this?"

Xier looked at Xiaoshi in surprise. How could he sell out Dr. Mei so easily?

"Who is my boss? I am the Herrscher! My boss is at most Honkai, but I don't want to do this anymore! Destroying humanity is too annoying. I quit, whoever wants to do it can do it."

"This is not Fu Hua anymore" (whispering)

"What did you say?"

"Nothing... Let's go!"

"Let's go! I'm really looking forward to the surprised look in Old Antique's eyes!!"

Chapter 8: Maze

Slowly coming to the entrance of the maze, after countless people's trials, the location of the maze had already been explored. The place where Xier was standing now was the regret left by countless people who failed to find the immortal.

"One step further is the maze."

Xier took a deep breath. Although Xiaoshi could guarantee that she could get out of the maze, when Xier actually stood here, she felt a little nervous for no reason.

This is a chasm that countless geniuses have wanted to break through in the past hundred years. Countless people have tried, failed, and finally left in despair. Now this record of zero will be broken, which may arouse a greater wave of immortality search. However, as long as Chi Yuan does not want to see people, this wave will be blocked by the absolute wall and not a single splash can get in. As for whether it will make more people discouraged in the future, Xier does not know.

"I am leaving……"

Xier whispered in a deep voice. She was not talking to anyone, she was just cheering herself up secretly.

"Let's go! Old antique! I'm coming to find you!"

Unlike Xi'er, Xiao Shi was quite happy. Taixu Mountain, a place that occupied a large part of her memory, gave her a feeling of returning home when she first stepped into it. Although she later realized that she was not the real Fu Hua, the feeling brought by that memory would not disappear. Moreover, here, thousands of years later, the Herrscher of Knowledge also experienced an unforgettable memory.

'clatter'

Xier stepped into the maze, and the moment she stepped in, the scene in front of her suddenly changed. It was still the same scene, and every blade of grass and every tree looked the same as outside. The only difference was that there was no one here.

The noise outside the maze seemed to be an illusion. The maze was still silent. There was no one on the entire staircase except Xier.

Of course this is just an illusion. After all, the person is still there, it’s just that the maze makes it difficult for you to see clearly. But even if you know this, you will still panic unconsciously when you suddenly step into a quiet place.

Perhaps Chi Yuan himself did not expect that people who came because of the maze would gather outside and the noise would be deafening. However, it was precisely because of this that the silence inside the maze would be even more terrifying.

"call……"

Taking a deep breath, Xier adjusted her mindset. After all, she was not alone. With a noisy little consciousness in her body, she could not experience silence. Ignoring the urging of the little consciousness in her body, Xier walked into the maze step by step.

Xier didn't know what the exact principle of this maze was, but she could clearly feel that the maze changed with her steps, or rather, everyone who entered the maze would have this feeling.

"Well……"

Xier frowned and looked around, then came back. She felt that she had moved forward, but after wandering around for a while, she returned to the starting place.

It's not that Xier can't break through here, but whether she relies on magic or other abilities, she will destroy the layout here. In that case, she won't be able to use the excuse of being a relic of an older era to face Chi Yuan.

There was no other way. Xier immersed herself in her own consciousness and said to Xiaoshi, who was eating snacks and reading comics while lying on the big bed she had imagined: "Swap, Xiaoshi, it's your turn."

"Oh!"

Upon hearing Xier's words, the Herrscher of Knowledge immediately jumped up from the bed, waved his hand, and the snacks, comics and the big bed all disappeared.

She just smiled widely, pointed her thumb at herself and said, "Sure enough! You still have to rely on me!"

Then she took control of the part of Xier's body that she had let go of, and used Xier's body to perform the Taixu sword energy.

And Xier in the reality outside of consciousness suddenly opened her eyes, and her originally blue eyes turned into heterochromatic pupils, one red and the other blue.

He silently chanted obscure words, which were the "divine sound" developed by Dr. Mei in the last era. It can strengthen the human body to the greatest extent during the growth period. Originally, it required lying in a specific place to achieve it, but after the transformation of Fu Hua and Dan Zhu Cang Xuan, it became a formula that can be used to hone oneself anytime and anywhere. This is also the only correct way to break through the maze.

As Xier recited the incantation, the surrounding scene changed again. Noisy voices began to appear gradually, and the people around her appeared one by one.

Several people trapped in the maze were beside Xier, turning around and around. In their eyes, they were looking for a way to break through the maze, but the fact was that they just stayed where they were and didn't move at all.

"..."

"So I was like this just now..."

Xier looked at those people speechlessly. When she thought about how she was like that just now, she felt weird.

"Hahahaha, that's right. That was really funny just now. I've memorized it all. I'll show it to you someday."

After completing his mission, Xiao Shi returned to Xier's consciousness space, and Xier's eyes returned to their original appearance. However, Xiao Shi's words made Xier uneasy.

"What! You even recorded it!"

Xi'er didn't expect that Xiaoshi actually had this ability. It was originally a dark history. If Xiaoshi showed it to Hei Xi later...

"hiss!"

Xier felt that all the hairs on her body were trembling.

But that's all later. The most important thing now is to break through here, because the situation below is already in chaos.

"Look! That guy!"

Among the crowd who were discussing how to break through the maze, someone suddenly pointed in Xier's direction and shouted.

"what!"

"Oh my god! She moved!!"

"Did she pass the test?!"

"Damn it! How is that possible!"

All of a sudden, envy, jealousy, surprise and other emotions broke out among the crowd. The test of the immortal that no one had broken through in a hundred years was passed by someone. Regardless of whether she could pass and become the immortal's disciple in the end, just by breaking through the chasm that countless geniuses found difficult to cross, Xier became famous in the world passively.

At the same time, on the top of Taixu Mountain, Fu Hua, who was meditating and practicing, suddenly opened her eyes. There was a hint of doubt in her eyes, and a hint of surprise appeared on her face, which had been expressionless for a long time.

"The maze has been broken through?"

She expected the maze to be broken through, which showed that the human race had become stronger in fighting against the collapse, but she had expected a forced breakthrough. She didn't expect that someone could actually leave the maze in the right way, even though she had never taught anyone the Taixu Sword Qi.

"I have to go and take a look."

Fu Hua wanted to know what kind of person was able to break through the maze.

Her sight returned to the bottom again. After realizing that she had become famous, Xier quickly ran up the stairs and did not stop until she could no longer see them.

"Huh... finally they left... these people are really crazy..."

For the first time, Xier experienced what it was like to be treated like a star. The way that group of people looked at Xier just now was like a hungry beast suddenly seeing meat. If it weren't for the maze blocking the way, Xier had no doubt that they would pounce on her and grab her.

"It's really a headache. I wanted to keep it quiet, but I didn't expect to become famous... There's no way out now..."

Xier walked upwards while thinking.

After the incident just now, Xier was sure that she had become famous. Apart from other things, everyone in the martial arts world has a strong ability to remember people. No matter whether it is to repay a favor or to take revenge, you always have to remember what they look like. Therefore, over time, people in the martial arts world have developed a pair of eagle eyes and can kill a person at the fastest speed.

"Hey! Xier! In front! In front!"

"What should I do now..." Xier was thinking and did not hear Xiaoshi's call in her heart, and just walked forward on her own.

"Boom..."

Xier suddenly bumped into something.

“Oh…it’s so hard…”

"It's over..." Xiao Shi covered his face with a slap.

"Ok?"

Xi'er came back to her senses, and then she was stunned the next second. She saw Fu Hua standing in front of her, and it was Fu Hua's chest that Xi'er had just bumped into.

"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!!!!!"

The world famous painting "Screaming Hill Special Edition" was born!

Chapter nine

"Ah ah ah ah ah!!"

Xier looked at the person in front of her, and when she thought of what she had just muttered, she was stunned. However, Fu Hua just tilted her head and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Ah, nothing..."

Seeing that the person himself didn't care, Xier's face instantly returned to normal, but the base of her ears was still red.

Fu Hua observed Xier carefully.

(Is that her? She looks like a good candidate...)

"What's your name?"

Fu Hua looked up at Xier, staring at her and asked.

(I didn’t remember it after all…)

Xier sighed in her heart. As expected, Fu Hua didn't care about their previous encounter at all. After sighing, Xier looked up at Fu Hua and said, "My name is Xier Fuleai."

"Um……"

Fu Hua nodded gently. She thought for a moment, then asked directly what was on her mind: "How did you break through the maze?"

"There is no method... I just had a feeling that suddenly appeared in my heart, and I followed that feeling and broke through there."

Xier gave the answer that she had discussed with Shilu a long time ago. There was actually nothing wrong with this answer. If Hei Xi was awake at this time, she would be able to guide Xier out of the maze after encountering this maze. After all, this maze is just a screening mechanism, and people or remnants of the previous era will always find a way to break through here.

"Oh?"

Fu Hua narrowed her eyes slightly and scanned Xier's body, but she didn't feel any familiarity.

"Fairy!"

Before Fu Hua could speak, Xi'er took the lead and said, "I want to be your disciple!"

Xiao Shi and Xier had already discussed it. As the first person to break through the maze, Fu Hua would definitely be surprised. Taking the initiative to attack at this time would definitely catch Fu Hua off guard!

"Worship me as your teacher?"

Fu Hua was stunned. Over thousands of years, she had never accepted a disciple, nor had she ever thought about it. After all, every day she was either protecting Shenzhou or on her way to protect Shenzhou.

(Great! The plan worked!)

Xier clenched her fists secretly. Her and Xiaoshi's plan was very successful and everything had been going smoothly so far. Now it all depended on her acting skills.

"why?"

After being stunned for a while, Fu Hua suddenly asked: "Why do you want me to accept you as my apprentice?"

Why? Once these words were spoken, if it were other people, they would probably be confused. Why do they want to worship Chi Yuan as their master? Almost everyone’s answer would be that they want to improve their martial arts.

As soon as such an answer was spoken, there would be no chance, because it was contrary to Fu Hua's purpose. No matter whether it was practicing martial arts or eliminating demons, Fu Hua's only goal was to eliminate the collapse and protect Shenzhou. Therefore, as long as it was not related to these two points, she would definitely not have any thoughts on it. At most, she would just give one or two pointers and then go back to the mountain.

But for Xi'er, she had another answer.

After hearing what Fu Hua said, Xier didn't say anything, but silently unzipped her clothes. Of course, this was not to seduce Fu Hua with her body, after all, the steely straight woman Fu Zhuangshi wouldn't care about these things.

Xier gently opened her clothes, revealing the red stigmata on her chest. Xier's face was also red with shame. Why did she take the initiative to do such things?

"This is!"

Fu Hua's eyes suddenly widened, and she leaned over to carefully look at Xier's stigmata, not realizing how ambiguous her actions were at this moment.

"that……"

Feeling the air flow from Fu Hua's breathing flowing through her chest, Xi'er's face flushed red and her body inexplicably became weak. Finally, just when Xi'er was about to give up, Fu Hua straightened up again and stood there thinking.

"call……"

Seeing this, Xier quickly pulled up her clothes and covered her face with her hands to try to ease her shyness.

(Oh, why are you so shy? We are all girls!)

The Herrscher of Knowledge asked in confusion. She didn't find this embarrassing?

(Oops! You don’t understand!)

Xier didn't know how to explain it to Xiaoshi. After all, although Xiaoshi had Fu Hua's memories, who was Fu Hua? She was a straight girl for thousands of years, and Xiaoshi, who had accepted her memories, was just a child. How could they understand these things?

But Seele is different. She got it very early. In this regard, perhaps only Kiana can compete with her.

(ah?)
