Chapter 1457: Ended Up Killed by the Phantom King
As Ning Shu took in Tao Qin’s frustrated expression, all she could say was that Tao Qin didn’t understand love.
Ning Shu said, “You look pretty young. You probably aren’t strong enough to even fight against the phantom king, so why are you still going after him?”
Tao Qin said, “I was just trying to get that woman to leave the phantom king so that the Yin energy wouldn’t enter her body, causing her lifespan to shorten. But in the end, I ended up being killed by the phantom king.”
Ning Shu: →_→
This girl clearly just couldn’t take seeing other people being so lovey-dovey. She tried to get the female lead to leave the male lead? If she didn’t die, who else would?
When Tao Qin saw Ning Shu’s strange gaze, she spread out her hands helplessly and said, “Alright, it’s natural to end up injured or killed when you travel on the Jianghu. I can accept the fact that I ended up killed because I wasn’t strong enough, but the phantom king also killed everyone in my sect.”
Ning Shu: “Uhh… Perhaps he wanted to eradicate things from the roots. “
“Okay, I can accept that. But why did he even devour all their souls so that they no longer even had the chance to reincarnate? “
Ning Shu: “Uhh… definitely because he wanted to eradicate things from the roots. “
Tao Qin looked towards Ning Shu, “Can you counterattack?”
“I can’t guarantee it.” Ning Shu asked, “How powerful is that phantom king?”
“He’s a thousand year old phantom king,” said Tao Qin quietly.
Ning Shu: …
“Help me counterattack. Just don’t fall in love with the phantom king.” Tao Qin said to Ning Shu, “Listen, ordinary people can’t handle the power of the phantom king. No matter what, don’t have sexual intercourse with the phantom king, otherwise you might not even have a chance at reincarnation.”
Ning Shu: …
Why was this girl talking like she would fall in love with the phantom king?
“You didn’t fall for the phantom king, so why do you think I would fall for him?” asked Ning Shu, somewhat speechless.
Tao Qin said, “That’s because in my eyes, that guy is just an evil spirit. How old is he already? Yet he was having sex with women whenever wherever, like he hadn’t seen a woman for several thousand years.”
Ning Shu: →_→
In any case, it was a fact that the male lead couldn’t hold back whenever he saw the female lead.
“Counterattack properly. I’ll be watching you.” Tao Qin patted Ning Shu on the shoulder, then disappeared.
Ning Shu: …
What the frick? I refuse. There was no way she could beat a thousand year old ghost.
“So the deal is sealed?” Ning Shu asked 2333.
“Yeah.” 2333 said, “This is her last chance to find someone to counterattack for her. You’ve been selected as the last one. If you can’t do this counterattack, this intermediate level task will be handed over to advanced task-takers to handle.”
“Shit, but I didn’t agree to it?” Ning Shu almost jumped up.
“Isn’t it just taking care of a ghost?” asked 2333.
If you were so strong, why don’t you do it? All you do is watch while I struggle through all the tasks.
Ning Shu sighed deeply. Fine, then she’d just do this task. She opened the system marketplace and exchanged for fasting pills, water, and basic medicines.
She recalled that this world would have a lot of ghosts so she took the soul pearl as well. At the very least, ghosts wouldn’t dare to get close to her while she had the soul pearl.
After thinking about it for a moment, she decided to check for a talisman that could expel ghosts. It was best if there was something that could help her run away. If she couldn’t win, then she’d just run. After all, if she ended up getting killed like Tao Qin, how was she supposed to counterattack?
Ning Shu exchanged for some talismans. She looked at the other magic tools but they were all grayed out, meaning that she couldn’t exchange for them.
