Venerated Venomous Consort
chapter-1082

When the silver-haired man walked between the crystal pillars, it was as though a cloud was moving around the room. Sometimes, they could not even see his steps, but they could feel his overwhelming spiritual power. He stood in front of Gu Xijiu as though he was a god. Though he was smiling, it was stressful to be so close to him. He asked again, "So, do you want to work with me?"

Gu Xijiu took a step back as she did not want to face him directly. "Your spiritual power is too scary, and I just arrived in this era a while ago, and I do not know much about this world. My spiritual power is so low as compared to yours. I have no idea how can we work together."

The silver-haired man smiled as he looked at her. "All you need to do is to say yes, and I would certainly find a way for us to work together."

Gu Xijiu raised her hand to rub her brow, but she did not answer his question. "There is too much information for me to digest today… I don't even know who you are and what this place is..., and everything I heard was only from the both of you…"

She took a glimpse at the pillars again. "I don't even know if the crystals were installed with a certain kind of light. Perhaps, it would simply light up with a different pattern when you touch on a different spot. Maybe it is not even an indicator to test spiritual power."

The silver-haired man and Long Fan looked at each other before answering. Long Fan smiled awkwardly. "What she had just said makes perfect sense. My Great Lord, why don't you show her your power?"

"How should I show…?"

He smiled again as he looked at Gu Xijiu. "You're the only one who dares to doubt my power. If it were others, I would have killed them."

Gu Xijiu replied, "Thank you for your kindness."

The silver-haired man sighed. "Fine; I'll make an exception this time. I'll get someone to show you. Follow me."

"My Great Lord, do you believe now that she had lost all the memories of this era?" Long Fan sent a directed audio to The Great Lord.

"This is not a small matter; I need to run a few more tests." The Great Lord replied.

"What else should we do?" Long Fan was not happy as he felt that his best creation was being doubted.

"I have my methods." The Great Lord said.

...

Gu Xijiu could not believe that the underground palace which was built in lava could be so big. It was probably as big as the palace of Qin Shi Huang! It was at least a few hundred acres as it was linked with many branched tunnels.

The Great Lord guided Gu Xijiu through several tunnels, and finally, they arrived in a big hall which looked like a square.

In fact, it was a square. The ceiling was red as the lava was flowing on top of the ceiling.

A few cages were housing several ferocious beasts, and they were roaring from inside.

Long Fan spoke when Gu Xijiu looked at the ferocious beasts. "Xijiu, do you believe me now that this is another world?"

All the beasts looked extremely scary. Indeed, Gu Xijiu had never encountered such animals before in the modern world, and even lions and tigers were already considered as wild beasts!

She had never come across any of the beasts that were currently in front of her.

Though Gu Xijiu remained silent, she was shocked as she kept staring at the ferocious beasts.

Long Fan's eyes were focused on her. He let out a sigh of relief as he looked at her expression.

He had not found a single flaw in Gu Xijiu so far.
