Chapter 568: Chapter 567: Get Your Claws Off Me

"You..."

Ni Hongying’s eyes filled with a look of pain as she hung her head and said nothing.

"The body you occupy here must be a presence where the body is dead but the spirit lingers, right?"

After thinking for a moment, Lu Zixun continued, "The purpose of its existence is to trap me in this world after I enter, isn’t it?"

To what Lu Zixun had said, Ni Hongying appeared as if she hadn’t heard, her gaze hollow as she looked at the ground.

"The one who gave you this mission, perhaps it was... the Justice Goddess?"

With a light chuckle, Lu Zixun shook his head, "Sometimes I really don’t understand what you believers are thinking. If your god tells you to go east, do you never consider going west?"

Seeing that Ni Hongying still did not speak, Lu Zixun lost interest in continuing the conversation.

He shook his head and prepared to leave the Trial Tower.

Since he knew that there were traps inside the Trial Tower, it would be foolish to enter further.

"Wait."

Just as Lu Zixun was about to leave the Trial Tower, Ni Hongying raised her head to look at him: "Who exactly are you?"

To this question, Lu Zixun originally wanted to respond with a snarky ’I am your father.’

But he inexplicably fell into deep thought, and only after a while did he slowly say, "Just a wretch... struggling against fate."

"I see."

Ni Hongying said thoughtfully, her body beginning to disintegrate into particles and dissipate into the surroundings, and the Trial Tower started to shake violently.

At this rate, the tower would collapse in less than two minutes.

Faced with this situation, Lu Zixun dared not linger and quickly left at a fast pace.

"Fate is not just."

A serious and ethereal voice came to his ears. Lu Zixun turned his head for a glance, but amid the dazzling light, he could see nothing.

The whooshing sound of something cutting through the air came, and Lu Zixun reached out to grab Sky Pool 03 in his hand.

And when the light faded, the Trial Tower in front of Lu Zixun had vanished, as if it had never existed.

"Brother Xun, is this a change that occurred in the ruins?"

Geng Xiyuan’s mouth hung open slightly, her face filled with disbelief as she stared ahead; a grand tower that stood there moments ago had vanished in the blink of an eye.

But Lu Zixun understood the Justice Goddess’s intention.

Sky Pool 03 was meant for Lu Zixun, and the trap within the Trial Tower was prepared for the impostor. Recalling what Momo said about the last chance, Lu Zixun understood everything.

It was just that the statement "fate is not just" undoubtedly confirmed some of Lu Zixun’s speculations.

However, it did not reveal the final answer. Lu Zixun narrowed his eyes and responded lightly to Geng Xiyuan, "Maybe so, let’s go and look for Crimson’s people."

At this moment, Lu Zixun reflected on his journey to the Crimson Land, pondering over things that could be changed and those that could not.

Entering the ruins was, without a doubt, unchangeable.

And if it was according to the information they revealed, Lu Zixun must have been impersonated.

And the only one capable of impersonating Lu Zixun so convincingly that even Lin Siyin could detect no flaws, except for Crimson, Lu Zixun could not think of anyone in Sha Fei Land who had that ability.

But why Sha Fei would want to use the Demon Country to eliminate the humans in Crimson Land was something that Lu Zixun found quite chilling.

Rubbing his temples, Lu Zixun led his group through the ruins, in search of the whereabouts of the Crimson team.

"When measuring the vastness of the Crimson Land by footfalls, Lu Zixun truly realized just how immense it truly was."

They had been walking for about three hours, and it seemed as though their group was the only thing left in the world besides the cities scarred by gunsmoke.

Under such oppressive circumstances, had it not been for the live wire Xiao Enshuo, Lu Zixun felt he might become autistic.

"Lord Xun, we’ve got movement!"

Just as Lu Zixun was contemplating whether or not to revert to his original form and let Geng Xiyuan carry him, one of the squad members reported back urgently.

Following the direction indicated by his team member, Lu Zixun saw a bonfire burning fiercely, and judging by its flames, it must have been lit not long ago.

Unexpectedly encountering members of the Crimson so soon, Lu Zixun’s lips curled into a cold smirk as he began to direct his team members to surround them.

The order Lu Zixun gave was to capture if possible, kill if they resist.

"Brother Xun, your sentence even rhymes, Skr~"

As Xiao Enshuo led the team forward, he couldn’t resist making a silly comment, which immediately amused Lu Zixun.

...

"The tracker has stopped working. It seems Lu Zixun is very cautious; he had his team destroy the trackers with energy as soon as they entered the ruins."

A member by the bonfire, holding a skewer of roast duck, sprinkled some chili pepper on it: "Sometimes I really don’t understand why we have to go after Lu Zixun specifically. I think he’s a pretty decent person."

"Let me put it to you this way,"

Guan Qingshuang said indifferently, "You may really like a pet, to the point where you want to stick with it all twenty-four hours of the day, but what if one day, when you reach out to touch it, it suddenly says to you, ’What the hell are you doing! Get your paws off me!’ Can you still treat it like a pet?"

"Well... wouldn’t that also be kind of cute?"

The member who had spoken earlier chewed on the duck meat in his mouth unconsciously and gave a sheepish smile.

"Really?"

Guan Qingshuang gave a noncommittal shrug and said nothing more.

"Captain, are we sure that raising the bonfire will lure out Lu Zixun and the others?"

Meng Yun’s gaze fell on Guan Qingshuang, his brow furrowed with uncertainty.

"If they’re around us, it will definitely bring them out. Tell the reconnaissance squad to be alert."

Guan Qingshuang replied confidently, full of assurance in her plan.

"What are you doing?"

Just as Guan Qingshuang had finished speaking, a voice suddenly rang out close to her ear.

Guan Qingshuang’s pupils constricted, and as she was about to resist, a bone-chillingly icy dagger, infused with Demon Power, was placed against her throat, immediately making her afraid to make any rash moves.

"Get your paws off me!"

On the other side, Xiao Enshuo, also holding Meng Yun hostage, grinned and said to Meng Yun.

As he slowly lowered the hand that was on the Spiritual Gun, Meng Yun looked reproachfully at Guan Qingshuang.

Was this the fail-safe stratagem? The enemy had approached and they hadn’t even noticed.

In response to Meng Yun’s gaze, Guan Qingshuang looked down, too ashamed to meet his eyes.

Lu Zixun, who had strolled in leisurely from outside, approached the member who was eating the roast duck and after a moment’s thought said, "Do you have any chicken wings? Roast one for me."

The team member, with a sour face as he roasted chicken wings for Lu Zixun, thought bitterly to himself, "The captain was right after all, a talking pet is not cute at all."

"Add more sweet and spicy sauce! Make it tender!"

"Alright, Lord Xun, I’ll roast it right up and bring it over to you."
