But after saying that, Zhou Qingruo seemed to see the disappointment and sadness on Duanmu Lian's face...
There was a bit of an uncomfortable feeling in his heart, so he covered his mouth and coughed, "Ahem... But, if Xu Sheng can really find a way to do what other families do, maybe he can try it too!"
This sentence does not contain any pity for the Duanmu clan, it is simply to appease Duanmu Lian!
Um! That's all!
Opposite Duanmu Lian, who had his head buried, his slightly dim beautiful eyes suddenly glowed with light. He raised his eyes and stared at Zhou Qingruo in disbelief, and said blankly, "Qingruo, you actually... agreed? I knew it. The heads of the family died in such a sad way, and you must feel uncomfortable in your heart!"
After saying that, he came close to her, reached out and hugged her tightly...
In her opinion, although Zhou Qingruo showed that he had no good impression of the Duanmu clan and did not want to have too much entanglement with them, he still had a father-daughter relationship with the head of the family, Duanmu Shuo!
Maybe she just covered up the sadness in her heart very well, but in fact she was no less sad than herself!
Looking at Duanmu Lian who hugged him tightly, Zhou Qingruo only felt that the other person at this moment was like a child! I didn’t push it away...
Instead, he patted her back somewhat unskillfully...
But the next moment, she felt a burst of fragrance coming from Duanmu Lian's delicate body. This smell made her cheeks blush...
You can even hear your own beating heart...
In an instant, Zhou Qingruo, who was hugged tightly, had countless questions in his heart, and said in shock, "This... what is this situation? Why do I face Duanmu Lian in the same way as when I was with Xu Sheng?" "
Not only is the heart beating faster, but also the cheeks are getting hot...
It stands to reason that since they are both women, ordinary physical contact would not have such a reaction!
Could it be that I...
An even more horrifying idea suddenly appeared in her mind...
Could it be that my feelings towards Duanmu Lian are the same as my feelings towards Xu Sheng? ? ?
Is it all love? ?
This is not right!
This is definitely not right! ! !
Thinking of this, Zhou Qingruo, whose face turned red, subconsciously pushed away Duanmu Lian who was hugging her...
The latter took a few steps back and stabilized his figure, with a puzzled look on his face...
Why did you push yourself away suddenly?
After Zhou Qingruo came to his senses, he realized that his reaction just now seemed a bit extreme...
Facing the former's direct gaze, Zhou Qingruo covered her blushing cheeks and said, "Aren't you going to the Xuanming Realm to find Xu Sheng? You'd better leave immediately, don't waste time here!"
Duanmu Lian pursed her soft thin lips and said cautiously, "But Qingruo, your face..."
It was just a gentle hug, so your cheeks wouldn't turn red like this, right?
Maybe it was his words that touched her heart...
Zhou Qingruo, who already felt a strong sense of shame, gritted his teeth and interrupted, "It's nothing, stop talking nonsense! Let's go!"
When Duanmu Lian heard this, he didn't say anything more...
But if the former knew what she was thinking before, he might do something!
…
And in the gap in the plane on the other side...
Xu Sheng, who was constantly breaking through the sacred stairs, suddenly stopped. He used his spiritual power to resist the pressure coming from it, and his whole body began to gasp...
After a few seconds, Xu Sheng raised his eyes with an ugly expression and looked at the radiant stairs...
He secretly said, "It's only one hundred and thirty levels, has it already reached such terrifying pressure? It's difficult to get to the top!"
That's right, Xu Sheng has reached more than 130 stairs at this moment, and the pressure he is experiencing every second is at least thousands of times stronger! !
Although it is not enough to completely crush him, it can still allow him to roughly judge the limit he can reach...
However, just as he was thinking carefully, a burst of dazzling light suddenly burst out from the stairs to the next level, covering the entire space...
After the light dissipated, two shadowy figures in golden armor were standing on the stairs, their faces completely covered by the strange masks...
I saw one of the men holding the lightsaber tightly, staring at Xu Sheng and saying in a cold voice, "Intruder! Retreat quickly! Otherwise... kill without mercy!"
Another man also echoed, "If you want to survive, get out of here! This is not a place where ants like you can enter!"
As the words fell, those cold and ruthless eyes stared at Xu Sheng...
There is quite a momentum of taking action if you say something wrong...
Xu Sheng did not rush to take action, but narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at these two people.
Their spiritual power levels are not high, and they are both in the Immortal Lord realm like Xu Sheng!
But the only difference is that these two men seem to be made of light particles, dissolving every second...
It would only take about half an hour before it would disappear!
After getting this information, Xu Sheng said softly, "You two, I don't mean to offend this place, but there are some things that must be reached at the top!"
After listening to Xu Sheng's words, the two men's eyes flickered a few times, and they said sarcastically in a disdainful tone, "The ladder to the top? Huh! Is it just an ant like you?"
"Even our souls can only live in these more than a hundred floors, but you want to rush to the top. It's simply nonsense!"
Xu Sheng nodded thoughtfully...
He didn't expect the two men in armor who suddenly appeared to let him go easily...
The reason why I took the initiative to say these words was to get some information out of their mouths!
In this way, it would be easier to find a way...
Immediately, he did not show any anger, and said with some worry, "Why did you two say this? Is there something terrifying higher up?"
Seeing Xu Sheng's extremely timid appearance, the two men relaxed their vigilance a lot...
They all released the lightsaber that contained huge power in their hands and inserted it under the stairs...
Then he played cards in a self-deprecating tone, "Terror?? More than just terror! When you reach the top step, that's when you will perish!"
"No one has ever been able to reach the top, because they all died on the way! Boy, I advise you to take care of yourself!! If you retreat now, you can still save a small life!"
Although it was not obvious, Xu Sheng still grasped some key points from the latter's words!
No one can reach it, they die on the way, and their souls live here! !
When Xu Sheng connected these short strings of words, his dark eyes couldn't help but shrink...
