Chapter 1162 Just Pretending

In the past, if Gui Xiao had thrown a punch, Gu Xiao wouldn't have had time to dodge and would have just stood there, foolishly letting Gui Xiao beat him up.

So, when he dodged like this now, Gui Xiao was surprised, "You dare to dodge?"

Gu Xiao knew in his heart that Mu An Xiao must have said those words deliberately.

He thought, since he couldn't talk to her now, it would be a good idea to stall for time in this way, and let A Xia help save her.

"I will dodge," he said, turning and running into the crowd.

Gui Xiao was enraged and, without thinking, immediately chased after Gu Xiao.

A Xia stood still, glancing sideways at Wan Sha, who stood motionlessly with her back to her. She then turned back to Mu An Xiao, who was staring at her, and took a step forward, deliberately saying, "Your life belongs to me." As she spoke, she began to untie Mu An Xiao's ropes.

Seeing this, Mu An Xiao was also startled, "..." She cautiously glanced at Wan Sha, who remained motionless, and frowned, saying, "Do you really think you can kill me?"

"You are just a minor immortal, killing you..."

Mid-sentence, Wan Sha suddenly turned around and asked, "A Xia, what are you doing?"

Hearing this, A Xia's body stiffened, and she turned to look at Wan Sha, "Her life is mine, I'm going to duel her."

"You're crazy."

"I'm not crazy. That night, I lost. Today," A Xia said, speeding up her movements, "I will not lose." With that, she forcefully pushed Mu An Xiao's shoulder.

Mu An Xiao stumbled back several steps and steadied herself.

A Xia: "..." She turned to Wan Sha and looked at the swarming demon souls, her eyes widening in surprise.

Immediately, Wan Sha frowned and quickly turned to the demon souls, shouting, "You are not allowed to make any rash moves."

"Her life is mine, it's mine."

Listening to their selfish shouts, Mu An Xiao felt a sense of crisis and quickly conjured her silver rope.

A Xia glanced sideways at Mu An Xiao, "Go quickly."

Mu An Xiao's eyes widened, "..."

"Now is not the time for you to be surprised, hurry and go," A Xia said, and as she turned her head, she met Wan Sha's gaze, "..."

At the same time, Mu An Xiao slowly retreated, quickly turned, and began to flee.

Wan Sha: "As expected, you did it on purpose." She glared at A Xia and was about to step forward when A Xia quickly blocked her path, "That was Wan Xia's life, why are you still so fixated on it?"

Wan Sha: "What did you say?" She gnashed her teeth in anger.

"I said," A Xia's eyes were firm, "That was Wan Xia's life. Why do you keep pestering Mu An Xiao like this? She already apologized. If it weren't for her, you would have been killed by the vine demon. You truly are ungrateful."

"You..."

As Wan Sha uttered a single word, A Xia inadvertently looked at the demon souls behind her and then shouted, "Be careful!" She reached out and pushed Wan Sha aside, then met the demon soul's palm with her own.

Wan Sha was stunned and looked at A Xia, "What are you doing?"

"..." A Xia had no time to reply and was already fighting the demon soul.

"..." Wan Sha watched this scene, frowned, turned to look in the direction the demon souls were going, her eyes darkened, and she said, "I'll go find Mu An Xiao." She then quickly followed the demon souls.

However, A Xia did not hear Wan Sha's words and continued to fight the demon soul diligently.

Meanwhile, Mu An Xiao stopped in a dead-end alley.

"Ugh, no way?" She stared at the wall in front of her, took a few breaths, turned around, lowered her eyelids, and concentrated on summoning Zhang Yan.

A few seconds later.

There was no reaction at all.

"How could this be?" She touched her left eye, which had been hit by Gu Xiao's punch, with annoyance.

Just then, several demon souls appeared at the entrance of the alley.

Seeing this, Mu An Xiao was startled and quickly conjured her silver rope, "..."

Demon Soul Number One: "Your life is mine." He then charged towards Mu An Xiao.

Mu An Xiao took a deep breath, swung her silver rope, and ran towards the demon soul without regard for anything else.

Then, enduring the pain in her left eye, she began to fight the demon souls.

After several rounds, Mu An Xiao stopped, stood in place, wrapped the silver rope around her hand, looked down at the demon souls lying on the ground, and said, "I was just pretending, and you actually took it seriously." With a cold snort, she looked up at the demon souls at the alley entrance, "Hello there!" She smiled and ran towards them, stepping on the demon souls on the ground.

Immediately, the demon souls were startled, quickly turned, and ran away.

At this moment, Mu An Xiao knew she couldn't linger in battle, so after they ran away, she stopped.

"Boring," she said, then returned to the side of the demon souls, squatted down, and tied them up in a few moves.

Minutes later.

Mu An Xiao sat in a corner, leading the silver rope, gently dabbing her eye while looking at the demon souls lying on their sides, "Was it fun running away?"

Demon Souls: "No fun."

"Do you think you're very powerful?"

Demon Souls: "..."

"If you don't speak, I'll assume you agree."

"....."

"Boring!" Mu An Xiao glared at them, then looked up at the darkening sky, her heart starting to ache.

The venue.

As Gu Xiao and Gui Xiao chased each other around the crowd, beams of blue light descended from the sky and enveloped the people.

Suddenly, the two of them stopped.

Gui Xiao looked at Gu Xiao and asked, "What's going on?"

Gu Xiao was familiar with this blue light, but he didn't want to tell Gui Xiao.

So, he said, "I don't know."

"You've been to the demon realm, how can you not know what this is?"

"You even use demon arts from the demon realm, how can you not know what this is?"

"I..." Gui Xiao's eyes darted away, "I only know the superficial part."

"If you only know the superficial part, you could still use demon arts to kill Feng Qi Shi and the others." Gu Xiao deeply felt that this blue light before him was set up by Feng Qi Shi.

Gui Xiao smiled, "Do you think I'm very powerful?"

Gu Xiao: "..." He showed his disdain, clicked his tongue, and asked, "If you're so powerful, then tell me what this is?" As he spoke, he glanced at the people.

Immediately, Gui Xiao stepped forward and said, "Why don't we touch it and find out?" As he reached out to touch the blue light, bolts of lightning struck down from the sky, hitting him.

In the next moment, Gui Xiao lay on the ground in a sorry state.

Gu Xiao: "..." He knew this would be the result.

Then, Feng Qi Shi suddenly appeared beside Gui Xiao, "Tsk tsk, how pathetic." He looked down at Gui Xiao, who was spewing white smoke, and shook his head.

Gu Xiao said calmly, "It's good that you're not dead."

Hearing this, Feng Qi Shi looked at Gu Xiao, "Where is Mu the Fool?"

"She..." Gu Xiao uttered a word and looked towards A Xia, saying, "You'll have to ask her about this." He pointed towards A Xia.

Feng Qi Shi followed Gu Xiao's finger and looked at A Xia, who was fighting the demon souls, saying, "It seems Mu the Fool has escaped." With that, he ran forward to help A Xia.

Gu Xiao: "..." He looked down at Gui Xiao and sighed.
