Venerated Venomous Consort
chapter-155

"True! It was upsetting!" Gu Xijiu smiled sarcastically. She looked at the pillars again, "These pillars look quite valuable, they must feel sad if it is damaged."

"Haha! Their whole body will feel pain if it's damaged. The production of black jade is scarce that even those the size of a fist would cost a few million, not to mention this big pillar! And there are nine of them! Only the Jiuxing clan could afford to own it!"

Gu Xijiu sighed, "I want to destroy it. Unfortunately, I don’t have enough strength!"

Black Jade is robust and compact, it would not have been an issue if she was a mature woman, but her current body size was so petite...

"I can." The Firmament Stone said arrogantly.

Gu Xijiu was delighted and smiled, "What are you waiting for?" She grinned evilly.

The Firmament Stone sensed her emotion and got excited, "I'm just worried they would hurt you if I destroy it. How about this? I'll add something to preserve it first so that it would only break the next time they try to set up the matrix."

Gu Xijiu tapped on its body with her finger and replied, "You’re such an evil stone! Great! Go ahead!"

That was probably the first time the Firmament Stone had done something terrible. It was excited and kept urging Gu Xijiu to follow what it said.

Gu Xijiu quickly walked around the matrix so that the Firmament Stone could have close contact with all the pillars.

"Done!" The Firmament Stone was delighted.

"You're an amazing baby!" Gu Xijiu smiled.

"Excuse me! I’m a Firmament Stone, not a baby! Don’t annoy me." The Firmament Stone felt disgusted.

"Alright my dear teacher." Gu Xijiu was in a good mood and patted the Firmament Stone.

The Firmament Stone was speechless.

The bracelet replied, "You’re such a pervert!"

Gu Xijiu frowned and said, "You're great! So what's wrong with me addressing you as a teacher?

What does this have to do with a pervert?"

The Firmament Stone was speechless and felt annoyed.

The Firmament Stone remained silent for a short while and said, "You can call me little Cang, but not a teacher!"

Gu Xijiu wanted to burst out in laughter! She then thought, "What exactly is the identity and nature of this Firmament Stone? It knew many things about this world, and it seemed to even know about the world she came from."

Prior to this, Gu Xijiu was quite lonely in this current world. Luckily she had the Firmament Stone which could at least talk to her. Gu Xijiu could not care less about precious stones, bracelets, and the like, but now she seemed to be quite close and attached to the Firmament Stone.

The Firmament Stone could not read her mind, but it could sense her emotion. It suddenly popped up with this phrase, "Don’t be captivated by me, I’m just a legend."

Gu Xijiu laughed again.

Just when she laughed, she heard many quick footsteps drawing near, and someone shouted, "Arrival of His Majesty!"

The door of the basilica was opened, and the Emperor entered the basilica with the company of a group of people. The Emperor was amazed when he saw Gu Xijiu perfectly fine, "Xijiu, are you alright?"

"Thank you, Your Majesty. I’m fine." Gu Xijiu got up and said, "I’m surprised that there are assassins hidden in the palace, this is beyond my expectation."
