Chapter 132: Chapter 96 Primordial Spirit, It’s Your Turn to Challenge the Star Tower (First Release, Please Subscribe)

[Current status is being detected...]

[Detection complete!]

[You stand inside the room, filled with hesitant ambition, already having a grasp on the path ahead. You knew what you had to do, which was to level up fiercely.]

[You had decided to venture out of the city tomorrow for the first time in your life to "pioneer" into the ruins, but now, gearing up for battle, was—Primordial Spirit·Wisdom: Narrow Sleeve Guanyin!]

[Hey! With your intentional probing, having her battle in the D8B3 area Star Tower is sure to be a rarely seen fight indeed!]

[You went next door to wake up the drowsy Gu Pan, you never bother with greetings on your journeys, and you just plunge right in.]

[You knew about her habit of sleeping naked with just a chest cloth removed, and her panicky scrambling in the blankets to get dressed, once again, made your day with some eye candy.]

[But you still didn’t do anything, all look and no touch.]

[You claimed to be audacious in your journey, so why didn’t you boldly romance her? You coward, as timid as a mouse!]

[You embarked on the journey back, with a favorable wind at your back, and quickly you returned to yesterday’s city gate tunnel entrance, then you entered.]

[On your journey, you entered a safe zone, and your origin touched the Star Tower!]

[The Star Tower entered into a state of full alert passively!]

[Given your current special status, until you proactively interact with other targets within the safety zone, the Star Tower cannot detect you.]

[You moved cautiously forward, hiding in the alley not far from the stall, quietly observing.]

["So, it seems that Narrow Sleeve Guanyin’s current state isn’t considered to be that of a living Evil Spirit?"]

[After a moment of hesitation, you took out the Primordial Spirit figurine that had been with you for two nights, and used Throwing Skill to accurately toss her towards the orange seller’s stall.]

[Right, it’s her again! The little orange-selling wife!]

[Today’s Little Orange Lady, too, is brimming with vigor but unfulfilled desire—if she hadn’t run into you, the stalking pervert.]

[And you, you wanted to test whether the Primordial Spirit was bound by the same ’interaction law’ as you.]

[Ten minutes went by, and Narrow Sleeve Guanyin lay quietly in the pile of oranges.]

[In the morning, the fruit stand wasn’t much busy, and the Little Orange Lady, engrossed, was flipping through newspapers and magazines, one of the few leisure activities in the lives of ordinary people after the apocalypse—she was reading "Forbidden Comics Almanac."]

[So it goes, her pastime is Qixing Entertainment!]

[She sat behind a small mound of oranges, blocking the view of passersby, with her other hand restlessly rubbing her belly as if she might go further if there weren’t people around.]

[Oh, looking at her face, full of longing, it seems she hasn’t met her Brother Wang, Brother Bin, or her dad these past few days, or could it be that her useless husband came home? Hopefully, some kind passerby would lend a hand to her.]

[After a few more minutes, her eyes roamed lustfully, and her breathing became erratic; she hadn’t even noticed Narrow Sleeve Guanyin.]

"Damn, that’s outrageous, doing this in broad daylight, isn’t that a bit perverse?"

Xu Shu watched the scene before him, where the Little Orange Lady was pretending to be an astronomer, continuously attempting to observe the Ziwei Star with her bare hands, feeling his worldview strongly challenged.

If there is anything more shameful than jerk off alone at night—it would be to do it on the side of a busy road!

Xu Shu continued to wait. He still hadn’t been discovered by the Star Tower:

["Damn it, stop being so freaking excited and interact with my Narrow Sleeve Guanyin already!" You watched Little Orange Lady lost in her springtime fantasies, you were furious, you desperately wanted to go help her out.]

[But you couldn’t, because once you interacted with her, you would be struck dead.]

[? You have an issue, what kind of interaction were you thinking of?]

[Finally, Little Orange Lady, who could only increase her discomfort by rubbing her belly, noticed something extra at the stall.]

"What’s this? How did this artifact come about?" Little Orange Lady asked in confusion as she picked up the Narrow Sleeve Guanyin to examine it closely.

"Such a cute jade figurine..." She gazed at the Primordial Spirit figurine that was a moderate size and felt smooth and warm like jade, and couldn’t help but become enamored with it. Seeing that no one was around, she secretly started to read from a book...

"????"

Xu Shu was full of question marks.

But it was not because of the audacity of this knick-knack peddling Little Orange Lady, but because.

How could an ordinary person look at the Narrow Sleeve Guanyin and still not die?

The Narrow Sleeve Guanyin possessed "Unlookable" properties; up until now, only Xu Shu could be immune because of the two instances of "Shaye’s Song."

Could it be that the Narrow Sleeve Guanyin was completely dead now?

It was at this moment that something unexpected happened.

"I don’t know if it will be too fitting... Hiss, why am I bleeding from the nose?" Just when it appeared a great mishap was impending, Little Orange Lady suddenly stopped.

She ceased the needlework she was doing, and a little blood dribbled from her nose, a very minor injury, far from what would be caused by directly looking at the primordial spirit under normal circumstances.

At this moment, an indescribable bolt of lightning struck down from the high heavens, powerfully and precisely hitting only the Narrow Sleeve Guanyin.

And the resident of the safe zone, Little Orange Lady, was unaffected. Truly deserving of Star Tower, truly Lie Zhenzi, the human Guardian God.

Bang! The Primordial Spirit figurine burst open, disappearing instantly. Amid its fading traces was a light purple erosion crystal with specks of gold dust, also ground into nothingness by the lightning.

At the same time, you were also discovered.

The Narrow Sleeve Guanyin you threw had caused harm to Little Orange Lady, thus exposing the Evil Spirit’s identity. She was the first to be struck down.

Little Orange Lady, being indirectly harmed by you, resulted in an interaction between you two. You were discovered by the Star Tower, and you received an ordinary attack (Epic).

In a daze, you seemed to see three large characters, but you didn’t recognize them; they were script beyond your comprehension.

But no worries, the Tai Chu Scroll translated them for you: these three characters read: "Pig Goes First."

You died, this journey has come to an end, settlement underway...

Evaluation: Narrow Sleeve Guanyin thanks you. If it wasn’t for you throwing her out, she would never have seen the infinite power of the Star Tower in this lifetime. At the same time, by dying before you, she’s made you take the fall along with her. You and Narrow Sleeve Guanyin dying together while watching Little Orange Lady’s awkward performance can certainly be considered as a prelude to your interaction, right? Perhaps even to the mighty Star Tower, you are just a piece in your play.

You’ve acquired an item: Fugitive Mandarins (Flawless).

Effect: Slight.

Today’s number of attempts: 2/3

——

"Damn, ’Pig Goes First’! Insulting me, and in such a cultured manner, huh?"

"But this time I actually got a Fugitive Mandarins, that’s not bad at all, though why is it only flawless when it is supposed to be Epic?"

Xu Shu shook his head, puzzled.

Being struck down by the Star Tower had not been painful.

At the same time, he turned to look at the Narrow Sleeve Guanyin next to him, stroking his chin in thought.

"The state of the Narrow Sleeve Guanyin is indeed very strange now. Did Little Orange Lady not get hurt initially, until she was harmed by Guanyin’s psychic attack, which led to the Star Tower discovering Guanyin immediately?"

"This being said, the situation with Guanyin seems somewhat similar to mine when entering the Star Tower’s journey, right? The difference is, she reveals herself even passively.

"If I bring her directly back, it seems to not pose any issue."

"But the precondition is, absolutely no one can see her."

Xu Shu fell into deep thought.

Since that was the case, he could finally return home without any worries.

...

...

After having breakfast downstairs, Xu Shu paid for the accommodation and then went back to the city with Gu Pan.

However, during the meal, Gu Pan kept stealing glances at him with a strange look in her eyes.

"Hmm? What are you looking at? Why does your face look so weird today?" Xu Shu was baffled.

"Hmph, mind your own business."

"..." Xu Shu’s mouth twitched.

She’s so fiery—did she suffer some massive menstrual mishap?

Xu Shu was not about to indulge her; after eating, he took care of his own business and went to drive the car, urging, "Eat faster, stop shilly-shallying, and get ready to go back."

"Hmm, going back to the city today?" Gu Pan was startled, "Then yesterday, you made it to the door, why did you dawdle for so long without going in?"

"Heh, mind your own business." Xu Shu returned the words to her.

"You..."

Damn it, you unfilial wretch!

Gu Pan downed her porridge as if she had a grudge against it and then followed him with the soup bowl in hand.

Watching Xu Shu’s tall and mighty figure walking ahead, she pursed her lips, and involuntary scenes from last night began to surface in her mind.

Last night, she woke up feeling stuffy in the middle of her sleep and decided to open the window to let some air in.

But what did she see?

She actually saw white substances spewing out of the window of the room next door where Xu Shu was staying! It was ferocious and violent! And it was, damn it, like a high-pressure cannon!

Even though she had never been romantically involved, Gu Pan was still a top scholar from the six branches, well-educated, and could immediately deduce what Xu Shu was up to—

"That’s it, the recent battles against the enemy, he’ll definitely be able to rise to the ranks of prominence.

"He’s level twelve now, last night he must have been harassed by those shameless nuns and witches.

"A vigorous young man obviously couldn’t resist, so he took a flight last night in his room!

"It’s normal human behavior, I can’t blame him.

"But you have a ravishing beauty like me alone in her room and you don’t want that, you’re engrossed in your damn dirty pictures, aren’t you?"

This was nothing short of a massive insult to a woman.

"Damnable Xu Shu, how dare you slight me!"

Gu Pan was really about to explode with anger, she didn’t sleep well for the rest of the night and stayed covered under her blanket, and her mind was filled all night with that alarmingly large white album.

"...sigh, well, it seems he truly has no inappropriate thoughts towards me, and that’s fine.

"I suppose I’m not as interesting as those internet sisters after all..."

"Are you coming to drive or what?" Xu Shu was displeased. What’s with this woman, she wasn’t like this before?

"I know."

Gu Pan took her place in the driver’s seat, took several deep breaths, and when she started the car, there was no longer any hesitation in her eyes.

"Hey, to hell with it, I don’t want to think anymore!"

"This guy has always been a demon in my heart, and with him behaving like this, I can truly let go of any private feelings that shouldn’t exist and devote myself wholeheartedly to the Gu Family’s millennium goal.

She shook her head forcefully, slammed on the accelerator.

Roar!

The tires spun furiously, her emotions soaring.

"Ha, the entire Gu Family will surely rejoice for my astonishing epiphany, my ancestors, I am about to restore your glory!"

...

Around eight o’clock, they were once again outside the city gates, with Gu Pan ready to drive straight in.

That’s when Xu Shu said, "Wait, let’s find a quiet place with no one around, to rest for a while, I need to cultivate."

"Oh, I got it."

Gu Pan had already subconsciously obeyed and quickly steered the car toward a deserted area.

...wait a minute, cultivate?

Ah! He’s going to cultivate!

Suddenly, Gu Pan’s expression froze. She quickly glanced in the rearview mirror and indeed saw that Xu Shu, who should have been in the back seat, was gone, leaving only a misty, enchanting fog!

"Oh no, that must mean..."

She hurriedly slammed on the brakes to a stop, grabbed the soup bowl from under the seat, and was about to flee—but!

A powerful yet gentle force, like the fierce sun in the sky or a lover’s scalding hand, was already directly pressed against her pale neck.

It flowed straight into her body.

In just an instant, she felt every cell in her body wanting to scream out in comfort.

At the same time came an irresistible urge to pee.

"It’s over..."

"The damned Xu Shu... you can’t! You damn well can’t do this..."

Thinking of that embarrassingly abominable scene repeating itself, Gu Pan tried hard to squeeze her legs together—she truly did not want to relent.

"I can’t hold it any longer... mmph! Ancestors, save me..."

However, the familiar warmth kept calling out to her body over and over.

In the end, Gu Pan could not withstand nature’s call.

"...Ancestors, forgive me... I’ve failed you...

"I can’t restore your glory just yet..."

Inside, she screamed in ultimate despair—Gu Pan, once again, squatted beside the familiar tire.

With the accumulated urine in her bladder finally released, the bloating sensation at last eased.

Since she already knew Xu Shu couldn’t see, she let out a sigh of relief and cheered herself on:

"Psssh..."
