Chapter 371 The heroine was knocked down and panicked!
Zhao Mu's scalp tingled. As he expected, Xia Ruoxi recognized him.
but....
He raised his eyes slightly and pointed at himself with a confused look on his face, "Brother Zhao? You've got the wrong person. My last name is Xu."
"Giggle~"
Looking at Zhao Mu talking nonsense in a serious manner, Xia Ruoxi was instantly amused and laughed so hard that her body shook, adding a different kind of beauty to the hot and dry desert.
One has to admit that the girl of destiny who is favored by heaven is extremely outstanding in every aspect, including appearance.
With a white lining and a delicate light pink moonlit skirt, coupled with her impressive figure and nearly flawless face, she was definitely a fairy. If it were any pure love novel, when Zhao Mu first traveled through time, he would probably have clung to Xia Ruoxi.
But when he thought about the plot of the novel, no matter how beautiful Xia Ruoxi was, he had no interest in it.
and many more....
Zhao Mu suddenly realized that there was something unusual about the man who had left in a hurry just now.
It's strange that he just glanced at such a beauty and left without any regrets.
"Brother Zhao, why do you have to be like this? I didn't take what happened last time to heart at all. I don't bear any grudge against you."
Xia Ruoxi generously invited, "Junior Sister, I've received quite a bit of information about the Divine Phoenix Ridge Secret Realm. Brother Zhao, are you willing to join me in the search for opportunities? How about we split all the opportunities 50-50?"
"I don't want to."
"So, Senior Brother Zhao, you admit it, right?"
“…”
Zhao Mu was speechless. Does it matter whether I admit it or not? Anyway, you have already determined that I am Zhao Mu.
"Since you're not here to cause trouble, then we'll meet again. Goodbye."
After saying that, Zhao Mu turned around and left. He didn't want to travel with Xia Ruoxi. It would be strange if he could get any great opportunities by being with the heroine. What's more, this woman was not a good person, and he had to be on guard at all times. Isn't that tiring?
But what he didn't expect was that Xia Ruoxi followed him like a dog-skin plaster, the kind that he couldn't get rid of.
"Brother Zhao, the Divine Phoenix Ridge Secret Realm is so vast. After being teleported inside, the fact that we can meet is fate."
“…”
"Could it be that Senior Brother Zhao is still brooding over what happened back then?"
“…”
"If Senior Brother Zhao still has anger in his heart, please draw a line. Ruoxi is willing to take it all."
“…”
Faced with Xia Ruoxi's patient chatter, Zhao Mu finally couldn't help but ask, "Xia Ruoxi, I really want to ask, what's the point of you doing this? Or are you attracted to me? If you are attracted to me, please tell me what you like about me and I'll change it, okay?"
During this encounter, Zhao Mu felt that Xia Ruoxi was like a lunatic.
Damn it, just fight if you want to.
"Then Ruoxi also wants to ask, why does Senior Brother Zhao hate Ruoxi? Ruoxi doesn't remember the sins she committed against Senior Brother Zhao."
Xia Ruoxi took the opportunity to ask the question in her heart, "Could it be because I hurt Yan Bingqing, Wu Yao, and Duanmu Liang when I was in the Xuan Emperor Palace? But that was a battle of chance, wasn't it?"
"What's more, my Xuantian Dao Sect and the Blackwater River Ji Family were allies back then, so standing against them is a helpless move."
“…”
Zhao Mu stopped, turned around and met Xia Ruoxi's eyes.
"Yan Bingqing has an innate Asura Demon Heart and is destined to be a demon. She is my Taoist partner. Even if I don't join the demon path, I will still have a close relationship with the demon path. You, a disciple of the Xuantian Dao Sect, actually want to be friends with me. Don't you think it's ridiculous?"
"Has Senior Brother Zhao never thought about letting the righteous and evil paths put aside their grudges and coexist peacefully?"
"!!!"
Zhao Mu was shocked when he heard this.
My goodness, is Xia Ruoxi crazy? Is this what a heroine should say?
Even if the plot of the novel changes, it shouldn't cause the main storyline to go awry.
Eliminating demons and defending justice, that is your responsibility and obligation as the heroine, Xia Ruoxi. Now you are telling me that both the good and evil forces should put aside their grievances and coexist peacefully. Do you think I believe it?
"Do you think it's possible?"
Zhao Mu looked into Xia Ruoxi's eyes and asked back.
"Of course, but we have to work together."
“…”
Zhao Mu was speechless. He thought, "You're going around in circles, are you still trying to trick me and make friends with me?"
He was really confused as to why the heroine was so obsessed with him. It shouldn't be like that, as he wasn't one of the male protagonists.
But at the moment, it was obvious that no matter what he said, he could not drive Xia Ruoxi away. He would most likely not be able to defeat her in a fight, so he could only be forced to let her follow him and wait to see if he could find an opportunity to get rid of her later.
.....
The crimson sky, the endless sea of sand, the heat waves blowing up dresses and gowns.
Immortal cultivators are supposed to be immune to cold and heat, but after just walking in this sea of sand for a few hours, Zhao Mu felt the heat was unbearable, and fine beads of sweat kept gathering on his forehead and then dripping.
The ticking sound did not occur as it should.
Because of the extreme heat, the sweat was evaporated before it even hit the ground, leaving only the salt that was invisible to the naked eye flying with the heat wave.
Sweat soaked Zhao Mu's long gown, and also soaked Xia Ruoxi's light pink moonlit skirt.
Even though the heat was raging, the loose dress still clung to her body, revealing her unparalleled figure. Fortunately, Zhao Mu had a strong resistance to the heroine in his heart and did not get excited because of this scene.
"It's too hot in this place."
Xia Ruoxi raised her arm to wipe the sweat from her forehead and face, while whispering to Zhao Mu.
Obviously, the situation here was completely beyond her expectations.
Zhao Mu remained silent. It should be said that he was too hot to talk.
Xu Zhen and Chen Xiong had reminded him more than once that the environment within the Shenhuang Ridge secret realm was extremely harsh, especially the scorching earth, but he didn't care at the time. After all, as a cultivator, how could he be afraid of heat?
It was not until this moment that I realized what it meant to not listen to others and suffer the consequences.
But even if he had anticipated this situation, he was helpless.
It would be great if Yan Qingyue was here with me. Holding a big lump of ice, she would definitely feel cool.
"Brother Zhao, are you hot?"
"..."
Hearing this idiotic question, Zhao Mu turned his eyes slightly and looked at the heroine speechlessly.
But the next moment, she handed over a fist-sized piece of ice.
"Cool down, there's not much ice left, so we have to use it sparingly."
"..."
Zhao Mu withdrew his gaze and also did not take the ice. Not only was he hard-hearted, he also refused to accept any tricks. It would be strange if the heroine took the initiative to please him without any purpose.
"I can swear an oath to the heavens that I truly have no ill will towards you, Senior Brother Zhao."
Seeing that Zhao Mu did not accept it, Xia Ruoxi said seriously.
Since she was born, she had never met such a difficult man, so hard.
Even though she had done this, there was still no reaction.
You know, in order to attract Zhao Mu's attention and find an opportunity to communicate with him, she deliberately did not put on a loose cloak to cover her body. No man in the world has ever seen such a scene.
But this guy, after taking two glances, was actually indifferent, which made Xia Ruoxi feel very defeated.
"Zhao....Wuwuwu~"
Xia Ruoxi was about to say something else, but she didn't expect Zhao Mu to suddenly pounce on her. She was caught off guard and fell to the ground, with her mouth covered tightly by the latter.
Facing those vicious eyes, Xia Ruoxi was a little confused, but she still kept her mouth shut.
What is he going to do?
Or did he finally not be able to bear it anymore?
