At this moment, Su Hua leaned against a corner, wary of her surroundings, observing with vigilance.
She had tried every method, yet she still could not detect the other party's presence. This filled Su Hua with both terror and fear. What made her even more distraught was that she now only dared to stand like this, not even daring to move.
What should she do?
She didn't know.
Su Hua had never encountered such a situation before. She took a deep breath and asked in a concentrated voice, "Bastard! Who exactly are you!"
"Who am I? Didn't I tell you already? In the jianghu, people call me Lord Chijiu."
"Bullshit! This old lady went to the Great Northwest to ask, and there's no such person as you!"
"You're the famous Su Hua Fairy, after all. Could you be a bit more reserved? Calling yourself 'old lady'—if word got out, how unsightly would that be?" Su Hua was so furious she could scream. She angrily shouted, "Bastard! Are you even a man!"
"Nonsense. If I'm not a man, then are you? What's the matter? Want to verify it? Hmm? Hahaha!"
"If you're a man, then get out here!" Su Hua was already blinded by rage. She no longer cared about her image or demeanor; she just wanted to provoke this guy out, then tear him to pieces. She shouted, "Hiding your head and tail, what kind of man is that! Dare to come out! If you don't dare, you're not a man!"
"I'm right beside you. Where do you want me to come out from, hmm? Hahaha!"
As the words fell, Su Hua felt herself being pinched again. Like she'd been electrocuted, she whooshed and vanished in a flash. When she reappeared, her body was already burning with a purple-gloomy flame.
The purple-gloomy flame did not belong to Su Hua, but to Gu Qingfeng. It was precisely his Divine Sense.
"Didn't you call for me to come out? I'm out now... Since you want to see if I'm a man, then today I'll let you witness it..." Whoosh! The purple-gloomy flame began to burn fiercely upon Su Hua's body.
Su Hua screamed. At this moment, she was utterly panicked, her mind in complete disarray, her arms flailing wildly. "Ah!" Su Hua screamed like a madwoman, trying to break free from the purple-gloomy flame, but it was useless. The more she struggled, the more fiercely the flame burned.
"Ah! Bastard! Scoundrel! Go to hell! —" Whoosh! An especially holy and pure radiance suddenly burst forth from Su Hua's body. With a series of crackling explosions, the purple-gloomy flame instantly dissipated into nothingness. Seizing this opportunity, she nervously stared around her and once again released her Divine Sense to probe. However, she still could not detect the other party's presence. She didn't know if the other's Divine Sense had been scattered by her or if it was hiding.
"Girl, not bad Soul, quite holy..." As the voice fell, a wisp of purple-gloomy flame appeared out of thin air.
"You!" Su Hua never expected that her earlier use of the holy power of her Soul had also failed to shake the other party's Divine Sense.
Gu Qingfeng's playful voice laughed, "Alright, alright. It's getting late today, and I've got another girl coming over on my end. I won't keep you company anymore..."
"Hmph! You think you can run? I've filled this place with Restrictions. Let's see how you escape, old lady!"
"With these pathetic Restrictions of yours, you could only trap a grasshopper. Trying to trap me? You're still too green."
"Bastard! Go to hell!" Previously, being unable to detect the other's Divine Sense had prevented Su Hua from acting. Now that the other's Divine Sense had appeared, Su Hua hesitated no longer. With a thought, like a bright moon blooming in the sky above, various Creation powers erupted forth.
However.
Right at that moment, that wisp of purple-gloomy flame vanished...
It truly vanished.
Su Hua saw it clearly. The other's Divine Sense simply seeped through the Restrictions filling the stone chamber like smoke, and then...
It vanished, vanished without a trace.
How could this be!
Why did her Restrictions have no effect whatsoever on his Divine Sense?
And the Minor Luo Heaven Formation—that was a formation specifically designed to trap and lock Divine Sense! It had clearly been activated and was operating, so why was he able to seep through it silently and unnoticed?
Why!
She didn't know.
Su Hua couldn't figure it out, and she didn't understand.
"Oh, and girl, throw away that Crystal Ore in your hand that contains the Divine Sense Trace. It's useless. That thing isn't my Divine Sense Trace at all. As for whose it is, take a good look yourself. In the future, if you have nothing better to do, don't go cursing blindly..." Su Hua looked at the Crystal Ore in her hand. The Divine Sense Trace inside had changed at some unknown time. It was no longer the flame-like Divine Sense Trace from before, but instead resembled a moonlight-like Divine Sense Trace.
Looking at such a Divine Sense Trace, Su Hua could hardly believe her eyes.
Because a Divine Sense Trace that resembled moonlight like this... wasn't someone else's. It was precisely her own Divine Sense Trace!
Heavens!
How could this be!
It was clearly his Divine Sense Trace, why... why did it suddenly become mine!
Thud.
Su Hua sat down on the ground, somewhat disheartened and lost. She murmured, "That bastard knew from the very beginning... knew that the fragmented heaven and earth contained a trap... He... He deliberately pretended to fall into the trap, and deliberately left a Divine Sense Trace... No! From the very beginning, what he left wasn't his own Divine Sense Trace, but mine! It was the Residual Consciousness I left in that trap... He... He used my Residual Consciousness Trace to disguise it as his own Divine Sense Trace... to deceive me into taking the bait..." Su Hua's spirit collapsed, utterly collapsed.
"Despicable bastard! Vile lecherous thief! Heaven-striking scoundrel!! Scheming turtle-egg!!"
Su Hua had never hated a person as much as she did today. She hated him so much she wished she could skin him, pull out his tendons, and eat his flesh!
"You wait! Damned fellow, just you wait! This old lady won't do anything else from now on. If I don't find you! I, Su Hua, swear I won't be human!"
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. The more she thought about it, the more furious she grew. Su Hua grabbed her own hair and screamed in rage!
