Chapter 476: Chapter 475 Mommy, there’s a pervert here

Gazing upon Gushanyuan under the light, Zhen Zhuoxiu looked as if he had seen a ghost, wondering how this guy had gotten in.

Only to see Gushanyuan. He looked gently at the Beast Giant’s head, as if seeing an old friend, and raised his hand to give it a pat.

His gaze fell on Lu Zixun, and Gushanyuan let out a cold chuckle, “I always felt there was something off about you, and I thought to stay away from you, but I still ran into you.”

Thinking back to the Alienation Value provided by Gushanyuan in the Trial Tower, Lu Zixun’s tail flicked.

He originally thought that Gushanyuan was unsociable and disliked the Demon Clan, but now it seemed that wasn’t the case, and there were other motives at play.

“But what I didn’t expect is to meet someone from the Elf Clan in the Second Layer World, today really is my lucky day.”

His emphatic and rhythmic speech, coupled with Gushanyuan’s raised right hand, gave Lu Zixun the feeling he had encountered a pervert.

“Did you come here specifically for the head?”

Lu Zixun purposely omitted the words “Beast Giant,” as he wanted to test Gushanyuan.

Knowing at a glance that An Xiao was an Elf allowed Lu Zixun to be sure that Gushanyuan was not simple.

Moreover, some of Gushanyuan’s strange behaviors only further convinced Lu Zixun of what he believed.

Who in their right mind would be so intimate with a head?

Touching it every so often, as if it were a pet.

“No, no, no.”

Waving his hand, Gushanyuan grinned and said, “I’m here to see my old friend, would you go out of your way to visit a friend?”

Squinting, Lu Zixun was somewhat unable to see through Gushanyuan.

“You are just a freak, I’ve always felt you were too proper, never imagined you could be so twisted.”

Compared to Lu Zixun’s subtlety, the disgusted Zhen Zhuoxiu didn’t hold back such scrutiny and just cursed out loud.

And An Xiao seemed to have thought of something.

She reached out to tug on Lu Zixun’s tail and then leaned into his ear, “This man is not simple, he might also come from the Second Order World.”

At this, Lu Zixun helplessly glanced at the young loli An Xiao.

He was well aware that Gushanyuan was no ordinary individual, but the question arose, in what way was he extraordinary— that needed to be addressed.

“Can you not handle even this? Well, let me tell you something that will drive you mad,” Gushanyuan looked down at Zhen Zhuoxiu and chuckled, “Didn’t you always have a little lackey? Liu Yang, was it?”

With a twitch in his right eye, Zhen Zhuoxiu looked up at Gushanyuan: “You captured him?”

Seemingly amused by Zhen Zhuoxiu’s nervousness, Gushanyuan burst into laughter: “Haha, I did more than capture him, I turned him into corpse oil and then sent him to stay beside you. Since Liu Yang so liked to follow you, I thought I’d let him accompany you in a different way, do you like it?”

“You damned beast!”

Enraged, Zhen Zhuoxiu, like an arrow released from a bowstring, arrived in an instant beside Gushanyuan.

Before the Hidden Spike could be deployed, it was blasted away by a red light emerging from the Beast Giant’s head.

“Attacking here, at my friend’s place, is not a very wise choice,” Gushanyuan said with a smile on his face, yet his voice was chilling.

At this moment, with the Heavenly Eye activated and information about Gushanyuan obtained, Lu Zixun’s eyes gradually became deep and profound.

“Ding— Gushanyuan, Beastman bloodline, it is recommended that the Host does not engage him in combat, but rather slip away.”

After an Elf popped up unexpectedly, now there was a Beastman to deal with.

All these names he had never heard before were giving Lu Zixun a headache. What in the world were they?

It was clear that Gushanyuan could control the head of the Beast Giant, and just like An Xiao said, it was indeed a weapon.

Facing a pervert and a madman, the best course of action at this time would be to beat a quick retreat, but…

Watching Zhen Zhuoxiu, his eyes red with rage, continuing to attack relentlessly, Lu Zixun sighed and drew the Night Evil Sword.

‘Cut·Destroy’

Swinging the Spiritual Fire-infused Night Evil Sword down, Gushanyuan’s previously mocking expression on his face grew a bit more solemn.

The sudden strike from Lu Zixun exerted immense pressure on him.

His fingers turned into claws as Gushanyuan plunged them into the skull of the Beast Giant, the red glow intensifying by threefold.

“Break.”

Lu Zixun said indifferently, and as the red light began to surge, it shattered like a mirror.

The Night Evil Sword thrust toward Gushanyuan’s chest.

Gushanyuan’s complexion changed as he rapidly retreated, carrying the skull of the Beast Giant.

But the Night Evil Sword was unrelenting, and Lu Zixun’s comprehension of Ice and Fire unfolded, his Spiritual Energy lashing out, blocking Gushanyuan’s path of retreat.

“Lord Xun, we have no grudge against each other, is there really a need to be so ruthless?”

Using the skull to block the stabbing of the Night Evil Sword, Gushanyuan spoke with an ugly expression.

“Do I need a reason to kill you?”

With a cold chuckle, Lu Zixun’s Ice Hell Purgatory came crashing down.

“Fine, Lu Zixun, I will remember you.”

After giving the Beast Giant’s skull one last deep look, a shadowy gleam crossed Gushanyuan’s eyes, and he pointed at Lu Zixun, triggering the protection mechanism.

Looking at the Beast Giant’s skull that had fallen to the ground, Lu Zixun was somewhat speechless.

It was quite ridiculous that Gushanyuan, a Beastman, could enjoy the protection mechanism of the Trial Tower.

Moreover, what did it mean for the Trial Land to just throw the Beast Giant’s skull into the Trial Land?

Narrowing his eyes, Lu Zixun unleashed his Sword Qi, directly shredding the Beast Giant’s skull.

“This… this was a mighty weapon, and you just shredded it like that?”

An Xiao watched Lu Zixun in disbelief.

Everyone from the Second-order World coveted that weapon.

If it weren’t for the Snow Domain World’s guardianship, it probably would have been a massive free-for-all by now.

“Don’t like it.”

To An Xiao’s query, Lu Zixun simply responded with those words.

“Oh…”

Feeling that Lu Zixun was being so forthright because it was just a projection, An Xiao, didn’t say anything more.

In truth, An Xiao was still somewhat incredulous, as no one could resist the temptation brought by the Beast Giant’s skull.

“Lord Xun… I…”

With a face full of shame, Zhen Zhuoxiu lowered his head and approached Lu Zixun, “I got carried away just now and forgot we were in the Trial Land.”

Now Zhen Zhuoxiu realized, revealing his killing intent prematurely was doubtlessly like startling the snake by hitting the grass, a careless move that alerted Gushanyuan.

“It’s not a big deal.”

Shaking his head, Lu Zixun softly said, “If you’re always looking ahead and behind in everything you do, you’ll end up restricting yourself. When we get out, look into Gushanyuan’s whereabouts, and Demon Country will give you their full support.”

“Lord Xun…”

Upon hearing this, Zhen Zhuoxiu’s eyes welled up with gratitude.

Just as he was about to say something, Lu Zixun interrupted him, “Enough, what are you, a bunch of noble ladies?”

Disdain on his face, Lu Zixun pointed to the depths of the treasure vault that they hadn’t yet visited: “Hurry up and search those places, so we can get out of here.”

“Yes, Lord Xun!”

Zhen Zhuoxiu responded loudly and scurried off to search.

Watching this scene, An Xiao couldn’t help but take a few more glances at Lu Zixun.

This cat’s technique for controlling people seemed pretty formidable…
