Jiu Shu was not a strong girl. In her memory, her parents used to laugh at her for being a crybaby when she was young. However, something happened later on, and she understood that crying was useless. She forced herself not to cry and forbade herself from crying.

However, Jiu Shu understood that many things would happen even if she did not want them to. For example, her claustrophobia, her fear of the dark, and her social phobia.

These things weighed down on Jiu Shu one after another. Jiu Shu did not dare to cry, but it also made it hard for her to breathe. It was too uncomfortable.

Jiu An did not know how long she had been crying, nor did she know how much time had passed outside. She only knew that she had cried until she could no longer cry. If she had a mirror, she would definitely see her pair of red and swollen eyes. They were originally very ugly, but Jiu An's eyes were extremely beautiful, as if they hid the stars in the sky. They were dazzling and at this moment, they were covered with a layer of mist. One could not help but feel pity for her. It was a pity that there was no one to appreciate this beauty.

Jiu Shu calmed down after crying. Just like the System said, she was a genius. Even in such a situation, it did not stop her from thinking.

She knew that she could not just sit there and wait for death. Although she had lost contact with the System, she had to do something. However, she was trapped here. What could she do?

Jiu Shu's mind worked quickly. Finally, an idea flashed through her mind.

"Six Paths!"

She shouted. Her voice was a little hoarse, but it did not affect her. She did not care.

There was no response the first time, so she patiently shouted a second time, "Six Paths!"

Then, she shouted a few more times. Six Paths finally appeared. "Little kitty, you're being naughty. I don't like people shouting in my territory."

Jiu Shu looked at him and said calmly, "I have a name. My name is Jiu Shu. I'm looking for you to let me go."

Six Paths was a little surprised. "Did you lose your mind from crying?

Do you think that since I have imprisoned you here, I will let you go? "

Jiu Shu stared straight at him. At this moment, she no longer treated Sixth Paths as her idol. "It's pointless for you to keep me here. Ah Gang and the rest have already arrived, haven't they?"

The Skeleton of the Six Paths narrowed his eyes and smiled. "Kufufufu … Do you think they can beat me?"

Jiu Shu did not shy away from the topic. "In China, there is an old saying that goes, 'it's better to be safe than sorry.'"

Six Paths could roughly understand what she meant. "Then what can you do if I let you go?"

"I can be your hostage."

Jiu Shu said without hesitation. Six Paths was surprised. "You?"

Jiu Shu nodded. "Yes. You should have found out that Ah Gang has a new person by his side recently. He is Ah Gang's external consultant and is also my brother. He is also the elite of Penglie's elites. Even Nindaime has high hopes for him. I think my brother will give you a headache, right?"

"Are you saying that you want me to hold you hostage and threaten your brother so that he will not participate in this matter?"

Six Paths smiled faintly. He felt that the woman in front of him was even more interesting.

Jiu Shu replied, "Although I quarreled with him today, I think you should be able to find out that my brother cares a lot about me. Without him interfering in this matter, you should be more at ease."

Six Paths obviously understood this, but he still asked a question. "Aren't you afraid that your friend will lose?"

Jiu Shu finally smiled. "I'm not afraid.

He won't lose. Why don't we make a bet?

If he loses, you can ask me to do one thing. If he wins, you have to promise me one thing. "

Six Paths looked at her for a long time. He felt that she was very interesting, so he nodded. "Then I'll wait for you to become my chess piece."

Jiu Shu looked at the eighth-grader in front of her. "Let me go first."

Six Paths's eyes changed, and the chains disappeared. Jiu Shu stood up. She seemed to understand. "An illusion?"

This time, the Six Paths Bones laughed, "You are really smart. If you weren't Peng Geli's man, I would like to recruit you into my faction."

Jiu Shu's expression didn't change. "We'll have a chance to work together in the future."

Six Paths brought her to the place where he was going to meet Ikeda Tsunayoshi and the others.

Jiu Shu waited for Ikeda Tsunayoshi and the others to arrive. Her heart was beating like a drum.

Everything was just her guess.

She knew that in the Obsidian Chapter, Ikeda Tsunayoshi's first transformation and growth. After going through the Obsidian Chapter, Ikeda Tsunayoshi and his family members, especially after Ikeda Tsunayoshi obtained the Glove X and defeated Six Paths, it was an invisible growth for him.

But Jiu Shu thought, what if she and Gu Junwei interfered in this matter?

She might not have the ability to influence this matter, but Gu Junwei definitely had the ability. Although she wasn't sure how strong Gu Junwei was, Jiu Shu's intuition told her that if Gu Junwei interfered, this matter would not only be resolved quickly, but also without any danger.

But if that was the case, would Ikeda Tsunayoshi and his family members still be able to grow?

Let's not talk about whether they could grow or not. Let's talk about the Battle of the Rings. Without the Obsidian incident, would Ikeda Tsunayoshi and the others still be able to win?

And if they failed, wouldn't Xanxus take control of Penglie? Wouldn't the world be destroyed?

Jiu Shu didn't believe that the so-called system from "Amagi" would be happy to see such a situation. After all, wasn't her mission to "save the world"?

Therefore, Jiu Shu boldly guessed that the system didn't assign a mission to stop Gu Junwei from interfering in this matter, or something else. In any case, it just couldn't let the two of them make a move on this matter.

But what if she guessed wrong?

Jiu Shu didn't dare to think about it. She only knew that she had to take a gamble.

Although Six Paths brought her out, they still left her in a secret room. She couldn't see or hear anything outside. She wasn't sure if Six Paths knew that she was claustrophobic, but Six Paths purposely cast an illusion to make the room colorful. This made Jiu Shu less afraid.

After some time, Jiu Shu suddenly felt that something was wrong. Before she could react, Six Paths had already taken her hostage.

Her back was pressed against Six Paths' abdomen. Six Paths' hand was around her neck, and the trident was also pointed at her. This made her feel a little uncomfortable.

She wasn't used to Six Paths's hostage, but the close distance between them.

She didn't like physical contact with others, which could be seen from the fact that she was angry when Gu Juanchu touched her.

Jiu An subconsciously raised her eyes to look at the opposite side.

Ikeda Tsunayoshi and Gu Junwei were all standing there.

Gu Junwei's expression didn't look good. His slightly narrowed eyes seemed a little long and narrow, and they emitted a dangerous aura.

Then, Jiu Shu heard Six Paths say, "It's not that you can't fight me, but there's no need for you to do anything to Gu Junwei, right?"

Gu Junwei glanced at the hostage who didn't panic at all. "Let go of my sister, and I won't do anything. But you have to return my sister to me."

When Jiu Shu heard this, she knew that she had made the right bet!

However, she couldn't help but complain that Gu Junwei had compromised too quickly. It was very easy for others to see through him!

Six Paths laughed. "Kufufufu … I'm not stupid. I'll have to trouble you and your sister to rest in the secret room for a while."

Jiu Shu was speechless.

What the f * ck, she got through so easily.

However, Six Paths continued, "It's just that I fed her a poison pill. If you go back on your word, I can't guarantee that your sister won't be able to survive."

Jiu Shu indicated that she hadn't eaten anything. However, before she could speak, Six Paths moved his index finger and rubbed her chin. This action made Jiu Shu even more uncomfortable, but she still complied. "Yes, yes."

At this moment, everyone noticed that her voice was a little hoarse. Gu Junwei's gaze became even more dangerous. "I won't go back on my word."

With that, he raised both his hands and walked towards Six Paths.

Six Paths pushed Jiu Shu into Gu Junwei's arms, and the two disappeared.

Gu Junwei appeared where Jiu Shu had been with the little girl in his arms. He raised his eyebrows slightly. "An illusion."

Jiu Shu couldn't help but admire his confident tone.

However, even though she admired him, Jiu Shu still pushed him away without hesitation. "Men and women shouldn't touch each other."

Gu Junwei glanced at her and didn't continue the topic. "Are you crying?"

Jiu Shu subconsciously touched her eyes. When she raised her hand, Gu Junwei noticed that her elbow was injured.

Gu Junwei frowned and moved forward. Jiu Shu subconsciously wanted to step back, but Gu Junwei grabbed her wrist without any explanation. He lifted her hand and examined it carefully. Then, he put it down. "Fortunately, it's just a superficial wound. Nothing went in."

Jiu Shu was stunned. Only then did she realize that Young Master Gu was concerned about her. For a moment, she didn't know what to say.

She didn't know what to say, but Gu Junwei had a question for her. "Did you really eat poison?"

Jiu Shu saw his frown and couldn't help but want to stir up trouble. "If you ate it, what will you do?"

She purposely lowered her head and didn't give Gu Junwei any expression.

Gu Junwei was worried. When he heard her words, he panicked. "I don't know how big the influence of the parallel world and the main world will be. Why don't you take a nap and go back to the main world to check?

See if you can do surgery to remove it. No … It's too dangerous to do surgery. "
