The Moment I Started High School, I Formed a Contract With the Crimson Dragon Queen - Chapter 37

Chapter 37: Obtaining Materials, Demon Plane

Gu Ning and Liu Yuxi stood by the blood pool, but saw a long sword made of ice flying back and forth in the air with only the hilt exposed.

“The turtle’s ability is invisibility?” Liu Yuxi was surprised.

Gu Ning smiled as if he had expected this. Then he used his right hand to create a soul circuit to release his power. She controlled the ice sword in the turtle’s body!

Gu Ning pulled hard, trying to control the turtle’s position through the ice sword.

The turtle also started to fight with Gu Ning. The two kept pulling each other.

“You still want to escape?” Gu Ning smiled, “You’re dreaming.”

The light from Gu Ning’s soul circuit became stronger. Then, the turtle found that the ice sword in its body was getting bigger and bigger!

It was getting bigger and bigger! It was more than seven meters long!

The ice sword was sinking deeper into the turtle’s body!

When the ice sword was so heavy that the turtle could not even walk, the ice sword was hanging in the air.

“This is the moment to kill.”

Gu Ning seized the opportunity. As soon as the tip of the ice sword was on the ground, Gu Ning controlled the hilt of the ice sword to be lowered in another direction!

The huge ice sword slashed down. Blood splattered everywhere. The turtle’s body was finally presented in front of Gu Ning.

Liu Yuxi could not bear to see such a horrifying scene. She quickly turned her head to cover her eyes. Gu Ning clapped his hands and said, “It’s done.”

Liu Yuxi looked at Gu Ning’s figure. Her heart was slightly moved. When Gu Ning turned his head around, he said rudely, “Why are you dragging me down?”

This stoic man would only serve to piss her off. What was she thinking! She should not be tempted by him! Liu Yuxi thought to herself.

“Now that the turtle is dead, what were you looking for? Go and find it,” Gu Ning said.

“I know! You don’t have to tell me!” Liu Yuxi said angrily, then walked towards the red blood pool.

Gu Ning was a bit confused. “What’s wrong with you? I just saved you, and now you’re looking at me like that.”

Liu Yuxi walked to the red blood pool, holding a flashlight in her hand. She was searching for something at the bottom of the pool.

She kept searching. Not long after, she said, “I found it!”

When Liu Yuxi came back to the surface, she was holding a few red crystals in her hands.

“Finally, I found it.” Gu Ning looked relieved. “But I have to say, you really know how to pick things.”

“I don’t want to, either!” Liu Yuxi said as she picked.

Gu Ning spread out her hands, letting Liu Yuxi continue to pick. She didn’t say anything else.

“It’s a pity that it’s so hard to level up my familiar, the thousand-flower butterfly,” Liu Yuxi said. “I have to use this blood spring crystal to level up.”

“When I signed the contract with this familiar, it was obvious that it wasn’t strong enough to fight. I was already being looked down upon by the people around me.”

“But I’m not willing to accept it. I believe I can make up for the gap between my familiars! As long as I pick another ten blood spring crystals, my colorful butterfly will be promoted to commander-level!”

“I’m sure you can understand my feelings, because our familiars are all butterflies of the same species…”

Liu Yuxi talked a lot, but Gu Ning did not say anything.

“Maybe because of that, I started to have a good impression of you, so I…”

Liu Yuxi turned to look at Gu Ning, only to find that she had already disappeared..

Gu Ning, a blunt, daft man, had left her alone in such a desolate place!

“Gu Ning!”

Liu Yuxi stomped her feet in anger, but there was nothing she could do. No one answered her, so she had to continue collecting.

She did not stop until she had finished collecting all the blood crystals in the red blood pool. She said angrily, “Gu Ning, that damn guy! I hate him so much!”

“I won’t talk to him next time, unless I have to come out again. Next time, I’ll reduce his pay! I won’t let him live comfortably! I’m so angry!”

Liu Yuxi walked out of the secret area with a backpack full of blood spring crystals. At that moment, she was still in a bad mood.

When Liu Yuxi walked out of the gate of the secret area, she saw the dead bodies of fierce beasts lying on the ground outside the gate! She was so shocked that her jaw almost fell off!

What was going on?

Liu Yuxi saw some movement among the dead bodies. Not far away, a fierce beast was beaten until it was convulsing with blood. When she took a closer look, she saw a person there!

It was Gu Ning!

Gu Ning kicked the beast down, then stepped on the dead body of the Beast. She murmured, “The 60th Beast, done.”

What did Gu Ning say?

60 fierce beasts?!

In the short time that she had been collecting the blood crystal in the red blood pool, Gu Ning had killed 60 fierce beasts outside the secret land? That was too terrifying!

Liu Yuxi was shocked. At that moment, Gu Ning saw Liu Yuxi too. She turned around and said casually, “You’re here? Why are you so slow?”

“Well… There are a lot of things… a little too slow…” Liu Yuxi answered hesitantly.

She did not dare to tell Gu Ning that she had been collecting blood spring crystals when Gu Ning had just come out of the secret land.

Gu Ning had not thought of that either. She said casually, “After the turtle died, a new beast attacked us, but I killed it before it could make a sound.”

“After that, more and more beasts appeared at the door. I just took it as a practice. I killed them one by one when I got out of the secret land. There were about 60 beasts.”

What did Gu Ning say?

Did he just… save her!

And she was talking bad about him..

Gu Ning found Liu Yuxi stunned. She asked, “What’s wrong? Why didn’t you say anything?”

Liu Yuxi shook her head. “No… nothing! I was just thinking about something.”

Gu Ning nodded. “You’ve picked the things, right? Let’s go.”

“Yes… Yes.” Liu Yuxi started to stutter again. “I’ll treat you to dinner when we get back.”

“So generous?”

Gu Ning was a bit surprised, but he did not find anything wrong. She just said, “Okay, I’m hungry too. It’s almost time to eat when we get to the city.”

Gu Ning and Liu Yuxi got back on the motorcycle and left.

After Gu Ning and Liu Yuxi left, the bottom of the red blood pool shook. Countless bubbles emerged from the bottom of the pool.

When the blood pool shook violently, a pair of giant purple vertical eyes suddenly appeared on the surface of the red blood pool!

The pair of eyes looked in the direction where Gu Ning had left. They squinted slightly, revealing a strange look in their eyes.
