2371 The Poisonous Swamp 8 (1/2)

Gu Xijiu did not really care what she said. ”What a coincidence. I do not like you, as well.”

Yun Qingluo did not say anything more.

Gu Xijiu was reluctant to waste any more time with her, so she proceeded to let Zhu Duqing into the net. Zhu Duqing had brought some extra poison-resistant suits with him. He went into the net and quickly got changed. Soon, he knocked onto the net and let Gu Xijiu know that he was done.

His suit was still the same, lightweight, and comfortable. The two escorts were curious about the suit, so they asked, ”Do your suits have the resistance against the poisonous environment here?”

Zhu Duqing gave them a laugh and responded in a superior manner, ”The suit does not only protect me against the poisonous air. It also works well against any sort of physical harm or animal bite. Most importantly, it is as lightweight as a normal garment. What are you wearing? You look like two bulky chimpanzees.”

The men were speechless by his remark.

”Our suits are obviously not as good as yours. Why don't we cooperate?” A voice suddenly emerged from a distance while a man was walking slowly towards them.

The man had purple robes, smooth black hair, and the signature ruby-red gem on a headband. The ruby-red gem had a rather odd shape that highly resembled the shape of a fox's eye. It shone with great brilliance under light and was able to catch the attention of distant observers. Also, he was wearing a mask in the shape of a fox's face that covered almost his entire face, except for his bright eyes and his crimson lips. His every gesture was unusually graceful.

Di Fuyi had made his return.

Gu Xijiu's expression changed abruptly, but he did not notice. She did not want to have anything to do with Di Fuyi and his men, so she urged, ”Zhu Duqing, let us go.”

Zhu Duqing refused to cooperate with Di Fuyi, too, for he was worried that he might fall into another trap. Thus, he agreed promptly, ”All right.”
