Chapter 568: Chapter 58: Goodbye Sack

Gu Xiaoxi’s persistence didn’t seem to matter to Bai Tian, "Will you come with me to see it now, or some other time?"

"Where is Yaobi Mountain?" Gu Xiaoxi asked. If it was too far, she definitely couldn’t go now.

If it was close by, she could go take a look right away.

If it was too far, she would have to wait until she had some free time.

"It’s as far from here to Nether Island! An isolated place, unreachable by outsiders without us guiding them."

Gu Xiaoxi thought about it—going there and back would take more than ten days. By then, the selection for the International Alliance personnel would have started.

If she went to Yaobi Mountain, she would need a long time to study those ancient texts.

Going now would be too rushed.

If she missed the selection for the International Alliance, she would be at a great loss.

Gu Xiaoxi thought it over and ultimately decided, "I’ll give you the Fruit of Immortality. Tell me, where is Mi Xi? I’ll go to Yaobi Mountain next time I’m free. How can I contact you?"

Bai Tian pulled out a golden whistle from his pocket and handed it to Gu Xiaoxi, "Blow it, and I will come to fetch you."

"You’ll keep your word?" Gu Xiaoxi looked at him earnestly.

Bai Tian’s amber eyes were full of mirth, "Do you think we people of Yaobi Mountain are unreasonable?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Xiaoxi took out a hundred fruits from her energy sea.

The white fruits, radiating pure white light, floated in the air like stars against the night sky.

"Tell me, where is Mi Xi?" Gu Xiaoxi asked.

Bai Tian, clearly very excited at the sight of the Fruit of Immortality, quickly lifted his head and said with a modicum of calm, "He is on Jiuyou Platform in the Eighteenth Level of Hell."

"What place is that?" Gu Xiaoxi frowned—it seemed she had heard of the Eighteen Levels of Hell before.

And what was this Jiuyou Platform?

"That’s the Demon Locking Tower of the Underworld. It houses all kinds of malicious ferocious beasts. Jiuyou Platform is specifically used to punish gods who have committed crimes and cannot be killed. Those locked on Jiuyou Platform will suffer eighty-one types of brutal punishments, with demons gnawing on them day and night. Until their divinity is completely erased from this world," said Bai Tian, his expression very grave, clearly also fearful of this legendary thing.

Gu Xiaoxi couldn’t comprehend at all, "What crime did Mi Xi commit to be locked up there?"

"I don’t know that. My master mentioned this incident inadvertently. His time is coming to an end, and during one of his nightly observations of the stars, he mentioned that another god is about to fall forever. And in this world, there are only two beings left with divinity. That day, on the way to Nether Island, I saw those two people with my own eyes—one is you... the other is him!"

At this point in the conversation, Gu Xiaoxi’s heart involuntarily trembled.

She was told by Mi Xi that she was a Child of God.

She had no idea that he, too, possessed divinity.

"Well, I’ve told you what I should. Now that I’ve got the goods, it’s time for me to leave," Bai Tian said as he collected the Fruit of Immortality and then disappeared along the seaside.

Gu Xiaoxi stood on the shoreline for a long while.

How was she going to rescue Mi Xi from the Jiuyou Platform of the Eighteenth Level of Hell?

No matter the reason, she should save him.

Questions filled her mind at this moment—where were the Eighteen Levels of Hell? Where should she go?

Her abilities were still not strong enough; she hadn’t even finished the second volume of her Cultivation Technique.

Where could she go? And what if she couldn’t save Mi Xi?

Gu Xiaoxi, with a heart full of trepidation, returned to Jing Rui’s home.

As soon as she entered, she heard Jing Haoran and Jing Rui complaining.

"Auntie, you must take revenge for me. That Sack actually teamed up with Gao Si to beat me up at the hotel. I don’t care, I’ve been bullied."

Gu Xiaoxi changed her shoes and couldn’t help but click her tongue at the sight of Jing Haoran’s bruised and swollen face, "You’re really a coward, getting beaten up to this state in just a short while."

"Can you blame me? They picked a fight deliberately, and those guys obviously knew they couldn’t look into my eyes. So, they all fought with their eyes covered. And Gao Si, you know his power, he can teleport. I couldn’t stand a chance against them on my own," Jing Haoran whined incessantly as he complained.

Jing Rui, holding a first aid kit and treating his wounds, equally expressed disdain, "You’re so accomplished, getting beaten up by a mob and still have the nerve to come back and whine about how strong the others were."

Using his half-swollen eye, Jing Haoran turned to Gu Xiaoxi and said, "I don’t care, you have to avenge me. They’re at the bar not far from the building downstairs! They’re waiting for you, talking about revenge!"

"How did they start trouble with you?" Gu Xiaoxi crossed her arms and stepped forward. Sack and Vilia were the captains of the Southern State Country and Western State Country teams respectively at the World Championship.

It was normal for them to hold grudges since they were beaten up by her for fighting over badges during the event.

"They spilled their drinks on me and told me to get out of the bar. This is the International Alliance, not their turf. Why should I leave!" Jing Haoran clenched his fists, his tone angry.

Unfortunately, he ultimately couldn’t beat them.

"Where’s Old Hu? Wasn’t he with you?" Jing Rui asked. These young hotheads really didn’t know the immensity of heaven and earth, causing trouble in such a place.

"He was called away by a phone call. Told me to enjoy myself and said nothing would happen here. Who knew I would run into those two shameless arch-enemies," Jing Haoran said indignantly and looked at Xiaoxi, "They even specifically said they would be waiting for you downstairs."

Gu Xiaoxi touched her short hair and sneered, "Then let me meet them!"

"I’ll go with you. Those kids from Southern State Country who bully me here don’t want to get along anymore, do they!" Jing Rui put down the medicine in her hands, ready to follow Gu Xiaoxi.

But Gu Xiaoxi stopped her, "No! I’ll go alone. You hold an important position here. It wouldn’t be good if someone with ulterior motives took advantage of you. I’m not part of the International Alliance anyway. Besides, the grudges with Sack, Vilia, and Gao Si have already been settled during the World Championship. I want to see what waves they can stir up now."

After speaking, Gu Xiaoxi left alone.

After going downstairs, she saw the bar across the street.

Gu Xiaoxi walked over with big strides.

The bar was large, with many people inside, but there was no need to squeeze.

Pulsating music filled the entire space, with people dancing wildly in the dance floor.

Outside the bar, beautiful men and women were gathered in small groups singing and dancing.

Gu Xiaoxi walked in slowly, scanning the room with her eyes and spotted the people she was looking for on a couch.

Two years on, Sack had grown taller and more muscular, his tattooed arm especially conspicuous under the lighting as he embraced a woman, the two of them whispering sweet nothings.

And Vilia was in the dance floor with a woman in a sheer dress, dancing wildly. No need to guess—if Vilia, the former team captain of the Southern State Country, was here, then his sidekick Gao Si was definitely around somewhere in the crowd.

However, Gu Xiaoxi searched the whole bar but couldn’t find him.

Now, the Southern State Country was ganging up with Western State Country to bully Jing Haoran.

They didn’t seem to have her, their captain, in their eyes.

Very well!

Gu Xiaoxi lifted her chin, hands in pockets, and strode toward Sack.

Sack was in the midst of kissing the woman in his arms when suddenly he felt a wolf-like gaze on him, causing an involuntary shiver.

Instinctively, he let go of the woman and turned to look behind him.

At that glance, his heart gave a jolt of alarm.

Seated on the opposite couch was definitely Gu Xiaoxi.

At that moment, a waiter respectfully offered her a drink.

Gu Xiaoxi gracefully accepted it, her delicate face blooming like a flower.

But he felt no warmth from her, only an unexplained tightness in his throat.

Damn it! That annoying feeling again!

Even though she was small and seemingly insignificant, he couldn’t help but feel a sense of fear.

"Staring at me for what? I heard from Haoran that you’re here waiting for me?" Gu Xiaoxi said nonchalantly, holding her drink.

"Yes!" Sack suddenly stood up, fists clenched, in the light his explosive muscles tensed up. Clearly, he was nervous.

Gu Xiaoxi curled her lips into a smile, "You should know, anyone who bullies my people pays a price. Was it that hand you used to hit him?"

"Gu Xiaoxi, don’t play innocent here. You had a few Special Ability Users with you last time, taking advantage of the numbers to bully us. Today I’m here for revenge!" Sack said angrily. He hated Gu Xiaoxi’s calm and casual demeanor the most.

Because every time he saw her put on that expression, his hair would stand on end.

Two years had passed, and he was no longer the Sack who only knew brute force.
