"Where is Su Luo??? Where did she go??"
In an instant, everyone's eyes snapped wide open wide as they stared at the ground in disbelief.
Just an instant ago, Su Luo’s corpse was right before them. How could her body disappear in a split second? Could it be… that they were duped?
Or---
"Is it possible that Su Luo wasn’t dead in the first place?" Leng Qi’s cold voice rang out. He felt that a girl with an aura like that could not be easily poisoned to death.
"It's impossible. I took her pulse. She really was dead just now. She had no pulse, and her heart was not beating at all." Xiao Luo looked at the place where Su Luo had been lying in disbelief.
"Poof——"
The sound of a dagger piercing flesh sounded out.
"Big Brother!!!"
Xiao Luo turned her head and saw a bright dagger sticking out from Chu Yang's neck. Without saying a word, she rushed forward and slashed randomly with cold steel!
However, by the time Xiao Luo's sword came slashing out, the dagger had already disappeared.
For a while, everyone was stunned as they looked at each other.
"Su Luo is still alive." Chu Yang's cold voice rang out at this moment.
“Brother, what evidence do you have?" Xiao Luo looked solemnly at him.
"The person who attacked behind me just now is Su Luo, though she is invisible." Chu Yang's voice was incredibly steady as he explained the matter in an indifferent tone, stating the facts plainly, "Xiao Luo, with your light element, you should know that there is a kind of invisibility potion."
"But… How is it possible? She had obviously been poisoned; it should have left her limbs paralyzed. It is impossible for her to attack you, Brother?" Xiao Luo couldn't figure it out.
Sister Yu also said: "There is no antidote to the Scarlet Blood poison unless she can refine the Grandmaster potion on the spot. Therefore, her every move is under our control. Even if she has the strength to refine the antidote, there is no time for her to do so."
Chu Yang looked at Xiao Luo silently: "What if, say, she didn't ingest the poison in the first place?"
"That’s impossible! We all watched her munch down bite after bite on it!" Xiao Luo paled and screamed!
"Truthfully, she is quick and clever. Furthermore, her strength has been completely unaffected." Chu Yang thought for a while, and added, "In fact, her current strength is even stronger than before. That is enough to show that she was putting up a false front from the very beginning."
"Brother, why are you so sure that the person who attacked you just now was Su Luo? Maybe it was the one who saved her." Xiao Luo stamped her foot.
"No, I remember the scent on her body. It is definitely her. There’s absolutely no doubt about it." Chu Yang boiled with angry embarrassment, having been fooled by Su Luo.
"Then what shall we do now?" Senior Sister Yu asked.
“In order to prevent further risks from delays, we will now escort Xiao Luo to the Spirit Pool in the center of the temple and promote her light element. As soon as she learns the Eye of Light, all stealth disguises will become useless. Then, it won’t be too late to kill Su Luo again.” Chu Yang’s thought process was still clear and logical despite the series of unexpected events.
"I know that my brother is the best." Xiao Luo held Chu Yang's arm intimately, "Don't worry. When I learn the Eye of Light, I will definitely get rid of Su Luo once and for all."
Just as everyone was going to the Spirit Transformation Pond.
"Brother, what's the matter with you?" Xiao Luo found that Chu Yang's body was extremely stiff, as if frozen in the ice. She couldn't help but have a thud in her heart.
A chill descended on Chu Yang's back. Raising his head, he glanced at everyone silently, before uttering words that made everyone extremely angry--
"The Crystal Shards——"
