After learning the whole story from the black air, Gu Xia looked thoughtful. She did not show too much anger about the matter of "possessing the body", but her attention was focused on other places.

"If that's the case, why didn't you attack me from the beginning?" Since it wants to take the path of possessing another's body, it's obvious that it's not a kind-hearted person.

In fact, throughout their journey, even though Li Tingyun was the chief, he had never heard that there was still a trace of evil lingering on the top floor of the library.

Therefore, it is even more impossible for Gu Xia, an outsider, to know.

If the other party chose to strike first, the two of them might have just come in and might have suffered a big setback.

"..."

After hearing this, even the black voice that knew everything was stuck under Gu Xia's physical persuasion.

It wanted to ignore the question and pretend that it didn't hear it, but looking at the threatening crackling electric current in front of it, it finally had to give in.

"…Because I can't beat him." There was a hint of resentment and obvious depression in his voice, and he answered her question stiffly.

To be honest, it also wanted to use force to take over a body that it was satisfied with, but this was just a thought.

After being locked up in this shabby place for so long, although it is not obvious on the surface, it can feel that it has become weaker and weaker as time goes by.

If it continues like this, even if it won't completely dissipate for now because it is bound to that crappy book, it may completely lose its self-awareness.

This is something it cannot tolerate in any way.

Therefore, this is why after failing to lure people away, it took a lot of effort to try to directly penetrate into Gu Xia's sea of ​​consciousness and seduce her.

But obviously, it failed.

It never expected that the little devil it chose to attack first would be so troublesome.

Yes, after being pressed to the ground and rubbed by Gu Xia for a while, it suddenly realized that this was actually a genuine God Transformation Stage cultivator.

A little kid who is only in his teens but has already reached the level of a god.

Not to mention that she also possesses a bunch of sword spirits and weapon spirits.

Judging from its impression of the world of cultivation, this configuration is a rare and outstanding one among the five sects.

How do you play this? Hit me with the head?

In addition, there is another very important reason:

Evil thoughts' combat capabilities are really not good enough.

It's not just because it has been trapped here for hundreds of years, causing its strength to drop significantly. Even in the past, it was not best at actual combat.

Originally, according to its expectation, after the large-scale illusion was spread out, it would be difficult for the people who were pulled into it to realize that they were in an illusion, and once they entered here, it could arbitrarily read some of the memories that were avoided in the other person's subconscious mind.

Based on its understanding of the righteous path over the years, many monks attach great importance to their own masters.

So it planned to use these memories to weave a false illusion, so as to evoke Gu Xia's anger and murderous intent when he saw the tragic situation of the sect.

Once caught up in these chaotic emotions, no one can remain calm, which gives evil thoughts the opportunity to take advantage of the situation.

As long as it could lure Gu Xia closer, it would be able to take over her body without any resistance.

This plan is perfect, the only bug is -

Gu Xia actually saw through the illusion.

Not only that, she also used the same trick against her own opponent and even turned the tables on him.

Grass.

Careless.

*

Gu Xia nodded in understanding.

She had originally had a vague suspicion, and now it had simply been confirmed.

Gu Xia had some doubts long before the other party tried repeatedly to trick him into going forward. After all, if his fighting ability wasn't so poor, the other party probably wouldn't have to waste the effort at all and might have just attacked him the first moment.

In order not to alert the enemy, Gu Xia pretended to be bewitched. Fortunately, things turned out to be pretty much as she expected, so she was able to find out the guy who was doing this behind the scenes in the end.

After asking the questions she wanted to know, Gu Xia suddenly remembered Li Tingyun, who had been forgotten in the corner.

"One last question. Where did you take the people who came in with me?"

Although Gu Xia recognized that this was an illusion and was not fooled, she did not sense the presence of Li Tingyun. The only explanation was that the other party was thrown to another place.

Since the way this evil thought deals with her is to confuse people's minds with illusions, she guessed that the situation on Li Tingyun's side is similar.

Instead of searching slowly by yourself, it is better to directly interrogate the culprit.

Unexpectedly, in response to Gu Xia's question, the already weakened evil thoughts did not answer immediately, but instead put on an attitude of "I don't know what you are talking about".

"Hmm?" Gu Xia slowly narrowed his eyes.

She suddenly realized that she seemed to have missed something, and without saying anything, she called out to a few sword spirits, "Go, give it a few slaps to let it know who is the boss here."

"Okay~"

The sword spirits were originally whispering to each other, but they immediately became alert after hearing the words. They were ready to fight, and their eyes were fixed on the small black ball transformed from the evil thoughts.

"What? What do you want to do?" The evil thought suddenly had a bad premonition, and it subconsciously wanted to escape, "Didn't I already answer your question? Why don't you let me go?"

"When did the righteous path have a guy as shameless as you?!"

It already had a shadow over these sword spirits, and the entire ball was about to explode.

Gu Xia remained calm and said, "Thank you for the compliment."

After a few seconds, she curled the corners of her lips and said, "I never said I would let you go, not to mention—"

"You don't seem to be very honest either."

"Ah ah ah ah ah--"

The sword spirit was extremely fast and instantly blocked the evil thoughts' escape route. With the previous cooperation, the few of them easily made the other party know what a socialist beating was.

Suddenly, a series of ghostly howling sounds were heard in the entire space blocked by the lightning net.

It seems particularly terrifying in this quiet atmosphere.

Evil Thought looked extremely miserable under the attack of several sword spirits, especially the thunder-attributed sword spirit, which had the worst temper. As a result, it couldn't help but shiver when it saw the other's bright smiling face.

Thunder and lightning always have a very inhibitory effect on things that go against the order of things.

However, what Gu Xia did not expect was that even so, the other party still refused to reveal Li Tingyun's location.

This abnormal behavior that seemed to be very "strong" gave Gu Xia a bad feeling.

……

so……

Is Li Tingyun still alive now?

Gu Xia thought about this problem seriously.

If he were gone, all the remaining elders of Xuanming Sect would be killed one by one, right?

Thinking that he had tricked the other person into coming here, Gu Xia's few remaining bits of conscience moved slightly.

No matter what, we have to find the person, and other things can only be put on hold for the time being.

But the trouble now is that -

The only 'insider' was almost beaten to a pulp by the sword spirits, but he remained silent and refused to reveal a single word.

This attitude of refusal to cooperate is obviously wrong.

Something is wrong.

You know, as an evil thought that could be trapped here for hundreds of years by so many restrictions, Gu Xia would not be naive to think that the other party possesses the noble character of 'rather die than surrender'.

If it was something good, it wouldn't have been locked up here for so many years.

The only reasonable and possible explanation is that the act of concealing it would bring it enough benefits.

And now, for it, is there anything more important than successfully taking over another body and escaping from here?

Apparently not.

Gu Xia quickly figured out the logic and estimated that the situation on Li Tingyun's side would not be very good.

At the same time, on the sword spirit side.

"I just can't stand it anymore."

Fu Sheng Jian's palm was filled with purple electricity, and he said in an irritable tone, "Can't we just kill it?"

He prefers to fight with the other party rather than interrogating, a delicate task that tests his patience.

But obviously, the evil thoughts before him not only failed to satisfy his wish, but also kept wasting time and energy on wasting the sword spirit's limited patience.

"Of course." Zhaiyuejian was a little gentler. She stated the facts slowly, "But Xia Xia needs it to spit out something. If we kill it like this, are you going to go look for the missing disciple?"

Fusheng Jian looked at her unhappily, with the corners of his lips straightened to reveal an obvious curve of surprise.

"whispering sound."

Annoying guy.

The personalities of sword spirits are more or less eccentric, but they are definitely not good. Apart from their own sword masters, they generally care little about the lives of others.

The undercurrent between the two sword spirits made the evil thoughts curled up in a ball feel that their chance had come.

It tried to slip away during this gap, but ignored one fact.

There are more than two sword spirits staring at it.

As soon as it turned around, it saw Hui Xuejian appearing behind it with an emotionless face.

The girl raised a finger expressionlessly, and lightly tapped it with her fingertips. The frost quickly turned into ice cones and pierced through it, nailing it in place.

"..."

Damn, this damn sword spirit.

This movement immediately attracted everyone's attention. Gu Xia clapped his hands and approached with a smile.

"Xia Xia." Fu Sheng Jian said with a depressed tone, "If you can't get the answer from asking, you might as well just chop it up."

He really couldn't bear it anymore.

He originally thought that he would be rejected by Gu Xia, but unexpectedly, the next second, he heard the other party readily agree.

"Okay."

hmmmm?

The boy's head, which had been drooping, suddenly raised up, and his beautiful eyes lit up slightly.

"Really?"

Gu Xia touched the cat's head and said, "Of course it's true."

She said seriously, "When have I ever lied to anyone?"

emm...

Even though this was their own sword master, they couldn't continue to speak against their conscience.

Gu Xia has never lied to anyone?

what.

If those victims she cheated heard this, they would laugh out loud.

If I remember correctly, everyone from the elders of the five sects to the two races of demons and monsters, and even some independent cultivators and other monks, should have been taught by her, right?

So far, all the people who have been deceived by Gu Xia's nonsense can form a huge alliance of victims.

But the sword spirit doesn't care about that.

That's what they deserve.

All in all, our sword master will definitely not be wrong.

After hearing what Gu Xia said, Fusheng Sword immediately turned his head and locked his target with an unfriendly look.

He appeared in front of the other person almost instantly.
