Excuse the Interruption

"Hey, can we still do business pleasantly or not?" Huo Silou was utterly speechless seeing Jiang Cheng remain unmoved despite her conceding so much.

"Stop, stop, stop, big brother, can we pause for a moment? Let me finish what I'm saying!"

Huo Silou quickly stepped forward and grabbed Jiang Cheng's arm.

"Look here, your guild Cutie Shakes the World is already a level two guild, so you don't need the Guild Establishment Token anyway. This token is useless to you, but quite useful to me. In the future when you come to... ask for intelligence, I won't charge you a single coin."

"What a great deal, why can't you see that?"

"At most, at most..."

At this point, Huo Silou suddenly became embarrassed, her face burning bright red.

"Stop. That last condition, deal accepted."

Fearing the bold Huo Silou might say something earth-shattering, Jiang Cheng stopped toying with her.

He took out the Guild Establishment Token and tossed it to the somewhat dazed Huo Silou.

"Um..."

Having just mustered enormous courage to make a major decision, Huo Silou now felt like she'd barely started to feel something when her opponent suddenly surrendered.

This feeling was driving her nearly mad, her pretty face looking as gloomy as if someone had died.

She had struggled internally for an especially long time before making a monumental decision.

This decision had essentially wagered her lifetime happiness.

She was already feeling melancholy about her future days, indulging in self-pity.

She was also quite proud of her remarkable courage.

But Jiang Cheng had abruptly cut off all her emotions.

It was like someone starving for three days and nights who'd just gotten a bite of a sausage, only to have it yanked away before they could swallow. That feeling of being stuck, unable to advance or retreat, was driving Huo Silou crazy.

"Hey, please, can you let me finish speaking? Can you? Can you?"

"No." Jiang Cheng couldn't be bothered with her emotions. After giving her the token, he urged her to lead the way immediately.

"Where is the Hell outpost on Changsheng Mountain?"

"I... meow... fine!"

Huo Silou's raised hand froze in midair when it touched the soul fire in Jiang Cheng's eye sockets.

"I'll... take you there!"

She said this through gritted teeth, using nearly all her strength, her teeth grinding audibly.

This blue skeleton simply wasn't human!

Not a shred of gentlemanly manner!

"Hey, slow down, wait for me!"

"This way, this way!"

"Hey, I'm telling you, the Hell outpost is beneath that volcano crater. The way you're going, you'll never reach it."

Seeing Jiang Cheng walking on his own, Huo Silou was nearly infuriated to death.

She'd never met someone so annoying in her life. Simply infuriating!

Whoosh!

A whistling sound cut through the air.

"Lead the way."

With a cold voice, Huo Silou suddenly found herself airborne.

Honestly, this might be her first time freely... no, not freely flying in the sky.

During Mythic, there were many Dragon Rider classes, but dragons were too scarce, so she'd never experienced soaring through the skies.

But...

Could this damn skeleton not grab her by the collar to take her into the air?

Didn't he know this was attempted murder?

Couldn't he act like a man and show some dignity?

"Let... let me down! I'm being choked... choked to death! cough cough..."

"Huff huff huff!"

Her neck suddenly loosened, and Huo Silou could finally breathe fresh air.

"You... you... I'm going to kill you!"

"Ahhh!"

"I'm falling! Catch me quick!"

A piercing scream echoed throughout the mountain valley, reverberating endlessly.

"Whoosh!"

Finally caught by Jiang Cheng, Huo Silou let out a huge sigh of relief.

A little more, just a little more, and she would have fallen into the boiling magma!

She could even feel the scorching heat on her backside!

"You... you... you... what sin did I commit in my past life? I admit I can be a bit vain sometimes, but is that reason enough for you to torture me like this?"

"Sob sob T_T..."

"I want to die, just let me die..."

Hearing this, Jiang Cheng nodded, spread his wings, and slightly loosened his grip.

Immediately, another round of screams erupted from Huo Silou. "Ahhh... ahhh... no! I was joking, can't you take a joke? Quick, hold me tight... ahhh, hold me tight!"

Huo Silou pleaded pitifully in Jiang Cheng's arms.

"Damn it, if my God Jiang were still alive, I'd offer to be his woman for life just to have him tear this wretched skeleton apart!" Huo Silou grumbled inwardly, her little pink fists clenched tight.

But a moment later, her expression darkened.

Some people, once dead, stay dead.

That was an unchangeable fact.

For now, her life was in the blue skeleton's hands, so she had to endure.

"The Hell outpost is right under this magma. I've told you the location, but how you get in is your problem," Huo Silou pointed at a spot beneath the magma and said languidly.

"The Hell creatures here are all fire-type lower demons. Though they're not very powerful, they can move freely through magma."

After saying this, she looked at Jiang Cheng, her eyes flashing with disdain. "As for you, do you think you can break through this magma to reach beneath..."

Boom!

Before Huo Silou could finish, Jiang Cheng wrapped one arm around her and raised his right hand bone.

His wings spread, and a blue Nether Moon appeared in the sky.

Splash!

A thunderous wave erupted, and countless blue Nether River waters appeared above the magma beneath Huo Silou's feet.

The scorching magma was instantly parted, creating a massive opening.

Huo Silou: "..."

"Excuse the interruption."
