Damn it! Let's smash the darkness together!-Chapter 1260 - 148: What Is Called History Now Was Named the Future in the Past (Part 2)
The cries of the young girl, mournful and piercing, brought sadness to those who heard and tears to those who saw. For a moment, everyone’s spirits sank again, and they could only wait here until she finished crying.
Gu Pan was particularly stunned, noticing her chest had been soaked from the tears. She shifted slightly, awkwardly, afraid the other might notice something unusual beneath her tightly wrapped chest.
At the same time, Gu Pan patted her shoulder, helplessly comforting, "No, it’s not your fault, it’s just..."
She suddenly fell silent, unsure how to offer comfort.
Should she say that people cannot be resurrected, and to accept the passage of grief?
Their friendship was rather decent, and that seemed a bit too perfunctory...
Or should she say it’s my fault, since I suggested switching to Dragon Elephant?
But it wasn’t me who invited people here, so why should I take the blame...
Or say it was his fate?
This, this doesn’t seem quite right?
Dammit! How should one comfort others in this situation?
Xu Shu, help please!
Noticing Ning Xin’s tears seemed to increase, and the two large oranges she had hidden were about to be exposed, Gu Pan quickly cast a pleading look toward Xu Shu.
Xu Shu immediately understood, cleared his throat, and said, "What’s the point of crying? You can’t only realize that the relics are dangerous after someone dies."
Upon hearing this, Ning Xin’s entire body shook violently, instantly becoming rigid as she released Gu Pan and looked at Xu Shu in shock.
The others also stood there dumbfounded, staring at him in bewilderment.
Suddenly, the entire platform became extremely silent.
Finally, Xie Xiaochan couldn’t help but tug at Xu Shu: "Ahem, someone’s brother just died; don’t say such hurtful things..."
Xu Shu, however, was indifferent: "Within the relics, living is akin to approaching death. The rules of survival and the strong eating the weak weren’t established today. If you don’t want to be killed, you must make yourself stronger! If you don’t have this awareness, you might as well stay in the safe zone forever and not come out.
"How much longer do you want to wait? This place is not suitable for lingering, I’m leaving."
With that, Xu Shu swung his hand and mercilessly walked past Ning Xin and strode forward.
Seeing this, both Lu Bingwei and Xie Xiaochan felt slightly puzzled, oddly feeling that Xu Shu’s words were something they had heard from someone not too long ago... But they both knew Xu Shu’s words were not wrong, so they slightly nodded and left together with Xu Shu.
They were originally not familiar with Ning Xin and the others, despite having an alliance contract, none of them had betrayed the agreement. Besides, Gu Yue Ming had treated her, so there was no need to wait here.
Instead, Gu Yue Ming apologized to her and hurried after Xu Shu,
Leaving Gu Pan alone, watching Xu Shu’s retreating figure in bewilderment, she bowed her head and asked, "Ning Xin, we should be leaving too. Can you walk? Or should I carry you?"
"No need."
Ning Xin wiped away her tears and stood up, face stubborn, kicking her foot to speed up, leaving Gu Pan trailing behind.
"?" Gu Pan was bewildered, but being the last wasn’t so bad.
While no one noticed her, she devoted half of her focus to traveling, and the other half sank into her own mind.
"...Ancestors? Ancestors? Have you woken up? Damn, what do you want to do to my ancestor?" Gu Pan questioned aloud.
After a moment, the familiar lazy female voice in her mind didn’t respond.
Instead, another, even more alluring voice laughed in continental common language that wasn’t particularly smooth but audible enough: "Hehe, little one, no need to rush, your friend merely hid himself away. I said it’s unrelated to me, do you believe it?"
"Ha." Gu Pan remained guarded, naturally not believing it.
"Believe it or not, it’s up to you~"
"So, who are you?"
"You’re smart; why ask the obvious?" the alluring woman said.
Gu Pan was silent for a moment: "Then what do you want?"
"What you have to do is simple, just wait quietly. Of course, you better not tell anyone, otherwise, I can’t guarantee if your ancestor can wake... I merely want to see how much will he has left, still watching here..." the alluring voice sighed, gradually fading from Gu Pan’s mind.
"..."
Gu Pan’s expression darkened; she roughly guessed what that thing was, which is why she hadn’t dared to speak earlier, as she was being held hostage.
Luckily, having been possessed by the ancestor Great Sword Tomb before, Gu Pan was somewhat used to such threats.
Anyway, things couldn’t get worse!
Gu Pan gritted her teeth, quickening her pace to catch up.
