Chapter 389 - 192: Victory
Gu Ningyi felt that the previous moment was absolutely the most embarrassing and ridiculous moment of his life. His usually steady footing was nearly lost because of a single word from the other party, almost sending him plummeting to become a splattered pancake from this height.
"Are you insane!" Even with Gu Ningyi’s high level of self-restraint and cultivation, he couldn’t hold back any longer and directly voiced his question. However, the sophisticated and high-class Gu Ningyi probably hadn’t experienced the shamelessness of Su Jiameng...
Or rather, he had witnessed Su Jiameng’s shamelessness... After all, it was her who came up with the previous deceitful tactics... But he never expected her to reach such unprecedented levels of shamelessness, completely ignorant of where the bottom line was. How can you have such a sharp tongue, who influenced you like this!
In response to Gu Ningyi’s inquiry, Su Jiameng merely flicked the tip of her knife and, with a smirk, said, "Indeed, I am sick, but the symptoms are mild."
Her retort left Gu Ningyi choked up. If it weren’t for his youth and robust health, this single remark might have made him faint from anger. This little interlude was amusing, but it also achieved the effect Su Jiameng desired, completely breaking the unrelenting tension between the two.
Intimidation may sound mystical, but for people like Su Jiameng and Gu Ningyi, it was of utmost importance.
Having been interrupted this way by Su Jiameng, Gu Ningyi couldn’t return to a full battle state anytime soon. Although Su Jiameng was affected too, this heartless creature, with a fierce fighting spirit hidden deep within, could recover her status even faster.
Gripping the knife handle tightly seemed to be able to calm herself down entirely. Her face was already covered in hot sweat due to the intense battle that almost overdrafted her strength, washing away the solidified blood accidentally smeared across her face earlier. Her whole face was so dirty that even those familiar with her might not recognize her at first glance.
In a bar on Tatazaya Planet, a woman shrunk in a corner watching a video squinted slightly, then fixed her gaze firmly on Su Jiameng’s eyes. After quite a while, she said, "Indeed... eerily similar eyes. Never expected that someone in this world would have eyes so like yours. But unfortunately, her capabilities are too lacking, which is extremely disappointing."
Having such similar eyes, but lacking that person’s strength and appearance, is indeed a regrettable thing.
If... if this person could be even more similar, she would indeed be interested in investing some effort in transforming this person from thirty to forty percent similarity to seventy to eighty percent! As for why it’s not a hundred percent... heh, no matter how strong her power to transform others is, she can’t completely turn a stranger into another person, let alone this subject being herself...
Thinking this, she shut off the virtual video screen, called a waiter for the check, and picked up a scepter beside her before leaving the bar. She donned a cloak passed over by a Tatazayan from the small cubicle, wrapping herself tightly.
Reentering the storm, her steps seemed much firmer than before, slowly heading in a certain direction. Only when she was a thousand meters away from that small village did she reach into her collar and pull out a Mecha Space Hub, open it, and jump into the cockpit.
If the storm disappeared, one could discover that this brand-new azure Mecha strikingly resembled Su Jiameng’s former vehicle.
After a high-speed journey, the Mecha, in stealth mode, descended into a wind-sheltered small valley. The woman exited the cockpit, stored the Mecha, then walked to a cave entrance, her figure gradually fading into the darkness, slowly venturing deeper.
As for that match? She had an intuition that the woman who closely resembled her old friend would win because... those eyes were so similar.
Using her knife’s advantage, Su Jiameng managed to corner Gu Ningyi to the end of a robotic arm, intending to kick him off directly! Yet, Gu Ningyi wasn’t someone to grow up on a vegetarian diet; after several exchanges, it was Su Jiameng who found herself at the end, with no retreat behind her.
"Now... the situation is reversed!" Gu Ningyi slashed down at Su Jiameng’s knife, picking a particularly tricky angle that could easily numb her hand and arm, causing Su Jiameng’s knife to slip from her grasp, and the remaining force of the sword continued its assault.
"Heh..." Su Jiameng suddenly let out a ghostly laugh, sending a surge of ominous foreboding through Gu Ningyi’s heart. Before he could react, a wave of danger engulfed his senses, and following his bodily instincts, he dodged—only to see someone’s foot magnify right before his eyes...
