Chapter 464 Black Tower
Chi Xin tilted his head slightly, a faint, almost curious expression appearing on his exquisitely beautiful face.
"Interesting. Do you want to try and see if you can escape now?"
Xu Si didn't move.
When Xingmai was repelled by that black building, he felt that his aura had been locked by some invisible force.
However, what locked him down was not the obsessive-compulsive man, but that black building.
Xu Si had reason to suspect that this guy had just tricked him by pretending to be nice.
"You can't escape." Xu Si answered the question honestly.
Chi Xin Gui seemed amused by his honesty, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.
"So what are you planning to do? How about trying to kill me?"
The madman gave Xu Si a suggestion.
If he could, Xu Si would certainly choose to do so, but he felt it was best not to.
"Sister is joking!"
Xu Si could definitely escape if he insisted, but the price would be high. Moreover, with his aura locked, he would most likely face pursuit. Therefore, he wisely chose to back down.
After all, being targeted by an eighth-level monster is not a good thing.
Fortunately, after talking for a while, Xu Si felt that the goodwill shown by this infatuated monster outweighed its malice, otherwise it wouldn't have been so kind to him.
Moreover, both the Thunder Eel and the Mist Giant Tuo were able to coexist peacefully with such a powerful and bizarre creature, indicating that this infatuated monster was generally quite friendly.
So he was actually waiting for Chi Xin Gui to be honest, because he always felt that Chi Xin Gui must have something to ask of him.
"Why not give it a try? What if you actually manage to escape?"
A hint of a smile played in his delusional eyes.
"No, thank you. We've already bothered you for quite some time. If you have nothing else to do, we'll be leaving now!" Xu Si said tentatively.
His cloak was almost torn out of shape; the little guy was genuinely scared.
"How about I give you something before I leave?" Chi Xin said with a sly smile, her tone relaxed but leaving Xu Si no room to refuse.
Xu Si felt a chill run down his spine. If he dared to refuse, a great battle would likely break out at any moment.
"I don't know what it is?" Xu Si could only bite the bullet and answer.
The infatuated ghost walked barefoot, gently stepping on the black building beneath his feet.
Xu Si then realized that Chi Xin Gui had not left that black building until now.
Is it that she doesn't want to leave? Or is it that she can't?
[Strange object detected: Black building]
[Ranking of Oddities: 72]
【Characteristics: Soul Binding Domain, Spatial Anchoring, Soul Prison, Unending Protection】
[Description: This is a strange artifact deeply bound to the soul of the obsessed and cunning; it is both her prison and her throne.]
"You also want to leave here?" Xu Si now knew the purpose of the infatuated ghost.
He thought of the giant flower in the flower market, and he thought of Fan Wanwan.
Why do all the weird creatures want to leave their private plots?
"Who wouldn't want that? We're only one step away from that position! If that bitch can go after it, why can't I?" Chi Xingui's words carried a hint of resentment.
"What if I refuse?" Xu Si asked.
"You can't refuse." The infatuated man said casually.
Suddenly, Xu Si's pupils contracted sharply because a window in the dark building lit up, and Xu Si saw a small, long-lost figure in it.
"Jiao Jiao?"
Xu Si immediately realized that it was a soul prison?
Now he knows what caused his persistent feeling of gain and loss.
No, no, that's not right?
What if this is just a trick by a delusional person?
She just showed me what I wanted to see, isn't that what these kinds of weirdos love to do?
Xu Si fell into a brief state of confusion.
Chi Xin Gui was very patient, or rather, all she had left was patience.
Anyone who stays in a city for a long time will lose interest in it.
Especially since her source of amusement is bizarre and lacks any common sense.
Now Xu Si has become the source of amusement, and more importantly, she can actually leave this cage.
Just like that slut.
However, she clearly hadn't realized Xu Si's suspicions.
Xu Si currently believes he is still in an illusion and is racking his brains to think of a way to break free.
After all, illusions are something that spirits and other supernatural beings can learn without any instruction.
The most unsolvable illusion is the one that has no illusion at all.
Xu Si is now in this unsolvable situation, and he doesn't believe that the cunning devil won't take action against him.
But the infatuated ghost didn't actually have any; her confidence came from the soul imprisoned in the Black Building.
"As expected of an eighth-level anomaly, I can't find a single flaw!"
In the dark building, Jiao Jiao's figure was so lifelike.
She was wearing the same hoodie she had worn when we first met, with two ponytails tied in her hair. She was sitting on a chair with her back to the window, as if she was looking at something, or perhaps just quietly lost in thought.
He was all too familiar with that pose.
Because the little girl is always spacing out.
He preferred to believe it was true.
"You suspect I'm lying to you."
"Why would I need to lie to you?"
The infatuated ghost finally realized something was wrong.
Xu Si's starry pupils narrowed slightly.
She's right.
With her bizarre eighth-level rank and Black Tower's ability to lock onto his aura, if she really wanted to do something to him, she wouldn't need to go through such a roundabout way.
Illusion? Deception? Those are methods used against equally powerful opponents.
But she clearly doesn't need to when dealing with the weak.
"Why is Jiao Jiao here?" Xu Si finally asked.
"Does it matter? The important thing is that it's real!" The infatuated devil once again demonstrated his manipulative skills.
"Then why don't you leave on your own? What kind of restriction does this dark building have on you?" This was just Fu Xiaojian's guess.
"Humans are indeed intelligent!"
"I am only in a semi-spirit state and cannot take the Black Tower with me. The closer I am to the Black Tower, the stronger I can be!" Chi Xin Gui said simply.
Xu Si, however, had a new guess, and it was probably more than that.
According to her description, the further away she is from the Black Tower, the weaker she becomes, and she may even be demoted.
If that's the case, Xu Si is somewhat inclined to believe her.
"What should I do?"
"Agreed so quickly? Aren't you afraid I'm lying to you?"
"I'm afraid." Xu Si's answer was honest, but he had no other choice.
As he spoke, his gaze remained fixed on the brightly lit window.
Jiao Jiao was still sitting there, her back to him, motionless.
"Smart people are indeed easy to talk to." Chi Xin Gui chuckled lightly, his bare feet lightly tapping the edge of the black building.
The exterior of the black building began to change.
The sealed metal plates cracked open one by one, then melted into a jet-black liquid, assembling in mid-air into a pure black Rubik's Cube.
Xu Si's star pupils narrowed slightly, and his star veins expanded at full power, attempting to perceive the internal structure of the 'Rubik's Cube'.
This time, the invisible barrier did not stop him.
Or rather, the infatuated devil took the initiative to remove the barrier.
But he still couldn't find Jiao Jiao's whereabouts.
