Following a green jade staircase, Su Zimo followed Gu Xi and arrived at the top of the inner house, beside the most spacious room!
"Come in with me," Gu Xi looked at Su Zimo and said before entering a room.
The maidservants standing on both sides smiled and bowed slightly, looking at Su Zimo with clear respect and envy.
In the room, there was a row of chairs and a table filled with all sorts of fruits that were filled with spirit qi – it was extremely tempting.
"Sit anywhere."
The girl in pink greeted Su Zimo and pointed to the fruits on the table. "Even the Perfected Jin Dan below can't eat these things."
Su Zimo did not say anything and merely nodded with a hint of caution in his heart.
He had long noticed that the reason why the two of them were treating him so strangely was definitely because of the Sky Treasure Gold Badge.
Previously, Su Zimo had always thought that the Sky Treasure Gold Badge given to him by Ji Yaoxue was the most ordinary one. But now, it seemed like it was not that simple.
"Hey, what's your name?"
The moment Su Zimo sat down, the girl in pink suddenly leaned over and asked in a sweet voice with ripples in her watery eyes.
The girl in pink was almost plastered to Su Zimo and her body fragrance wafted over.
Su Zimo's heart skipped a beat as he leaned back slightly and said in a deep voice, "I'm Su Zimo …"
The moment he said that, Su Zimo felt that something was amiss.
After the girl in pink had asked her question, he did not even have to think before he subconsciously blurted it out!
Su Zimo felt a sense of trepidation in his heart.
This feeling was as though he could not control himself and would answer anything the other party asked!
What was even scarier was that the girl exuded a seductive aura. Every frown and smile of hers was enchanting and charming.
Even though it was just a casual chat, Su Zimo felt his body heat up and his mind wander.
Evil!
Su Zimo clenched his fists, and a layer of sweat gradually seeped out of his palms.
This girl was already so powerful with a veil on her face. If she were to take off her veil, how powerful would she be?
Su Zimo could not stay any longer. He stood up and cupped his hands. "Head Chief, if there is nothing else, I will take my leave."
Gu Xi didn't say a word. She just looked at the two of them quietly.
"What's the rush? Didn't you come here to auction something? Just sit here and bid."
The girl in pink said. Suddenly, she rolled her eyes and arrived in front of Su Zimo. Raising her head, she asked with a smile, "Why? Are you afraid?"
Su Zimo was indeed a little scared, but how could he admit it at this time?
"Miss, you must be joking."
Su Zimo's expression did not change. He looked straight ahead and said indifferently, "As a disciple of Misty Peak, I have always been upright. What is there to be afraid of?"
The reason why Su Zimo brought up his sect was because he wanted to intimidate the other party.
No matter what, Misty Peak was one of the five major sects of the Great Zhou Dynasty after all.
"Wow!"
The girl in pink exclaimed with a look of admiration. "Misty Peak! One of the five major sects! How amazing!"
Gu Xi's lips twitched as though she wanted to laugh. However, she held it back.
Su Zimo could tell as well that the girl in pink was clearly faking it. There was a hint of mockery in her tone, as though she did not care about Misty Peak at all.
Su Zimo had an embarrassed expression. However, he could not get angry and could only ask instead, "Miss, how should I address you and what sect are you from?"
"Me? I can't tell you right now, hehe." The girl in pink laughed and blinked her eyes. She looked innocent and charming, making it hard for anyone to feel bad about her.
"Do you know what's strange about that Sky Treasure Gold Badge?" Suddenly, the girl in pink asked.
"I don't know," Su Zimo shook his head.
"Take it out and take a closer look," The girl in pink continued.
Ever since he obtained the Sky Treasure Gold Badge, Su Zimo had indeed not taken a close look at it. Now that he was looking at it, he noticed something strange.
At the bottom right corner of the badge, there was an exquisite 'Xue' character carved on it.
The girl in pink's voice sounded once more, "This is the gold badge of the Great Zhou Dynasty's third princess, also known as the royal family's gold badge. There are less than ten of them in the entire Great Zhou Dynasty!"
"No wonder."
Su Zimo's heart skipped a beat.
Back then, Ji Yaoxue said that he would get a 50% discount if he shopped at Sky Treasure Pavilion with this Sky Treasure Gold Badge!
At that time, Su Zimo was surprised – wasn't that way too cheap?
So, this badge was meant for the descendants of the Great Zhou Dynasty's royal family!
"Hey, what's your relationship with the third princess of the Great Zhou Dynasty?" A sly look flashed through the girl in pink's eyes as she asked with a smile.
Su Zimo shook his head. "Nothing much, we're just ordinary friends."
"Who would believe that?"
Pursing her lips, the girl in pink teased, "Ordinary friends? Why would the third princess give this badge to you?"
Su Zimo remained silent.
"Hey, Su Zimo, can you do me a favor?" The girl in pink rolled her eyes and suddenly asked.
Su Zimo asked, "What is it?"
"Help me beat up the bad guys!" Raising her fist, the girl in pink said with a stern expression, "Yes … they're all heinous fiends. As a disciple of Misty Peak, you should shoulder the responsibility of eliminating them."
"I'm not going," Su Zimo shook his head.
Su Zimo did not care about the bad guys or fiends – he just wanted to stay away from this girl.
At the side, Gu Xi suddenly frowned and released her spirit consciousness, setting up a barrier between her and the girl in pink. She frowned and said, "What are you messing around for? You can't be thinking of getting this kid to accompany you there, right?"
"That's right."
The girl in pink replied nonchalantly.
"Don't go,"
Gu Xi advised, "I can't help you there. Among this generation of fiend heirs, none of them are good people. If you provoke them, they might really kill you!"
"Tsk."
The girl in pink was somewhat disdainful. "So what if they're fiend heirs? I'm a demoness! Who's afraid of who? If they provoke me, I'll kill them all the same! Besides, haven't I found a helper? "
With that, the girl in pink swept her gaze towards Su Zimo.
"Him?" Gu Xi shook her head and did not continue. However, her tone was filled with disdain.
The girl in pink smiled brightly. "I heard from my sister that Su Zimo's melee combat strength isn't bad."
"It's useless,"
Gu Xi shook her head. "The geniuses of this generation of fiend sects are too strong. Notwithstanding the successor of Overlord Palace, Su Zimo is nothing compared to the fiend heirs of the other factions. He's just sending himself to his death if he goes there. Your sister has a deep relationship with him. If he dies because of you, your sister will definitely blame you. "
"Hmph, if he dies, it'll be over."
The girl in pink sneered, "It'll save my sister the trouble of thinking about him and even quarreling with father a few times. In my opinion, there's nothing much about this Su Zimo. He looks ordinary. I don't know what my sister sees in him. "
"You've decided?" Gu Xi asked.
The girl in pink nodded and frowned. "However, if he doesn't want to go, I can't hold a knife to his neck and force him to go."
"There's always a way," Gu Xi said meaningfully.
