Chapter 671 Did they mistake someone for someone else?
For most people, longevity is not necessarily a desirable thing.
This is especially true for someone like Ed, who has been trapped in grief and guilt for so long.
Xu Ning glanced at Ed, sighed deeply, and said, "When we get back, I'll leave you some wine. If the day ever comes... whether Calibel is cured or you can let go of everything... I hope it will be of some help to you."
Ed nodded emphatically. "Thank you."
Neither of them spoke again, focusing intently on Ying dealing with the Abyss Apostle.
"Absolutely breathtakingly elegant!"
As the Abyss Apostle deftly dodged the glint of the luminous sword with a backflip, Ed suddenly spoke up in praise.
Look at Ed, who seems to be powerless, yet he knows how to appreciate Ying's swordsmanship.
Xu Ning smiled and said, "Even in your palace, it would be rare to see such a sharp and perfect girl, wouldn't it?"
Ed was surprised. "You can even tell its gender... uh, no, what girl are you talking about?"
Xu Ning's face darkened. "Wait, were you just praising that guy? You have some unique taste, don't you? You're looking at a monster instead of a girl?"
Ed gave a wry smile. "Don't you find it incredibly appealing that something possesses such dangerous and mysterious power?"
Xu Ning shook his head disdainfully, "It's just a matter of a few punches and kicks, there's no danger at all. Ying was just being a little cautious, otherwise she could have taken it down with a combo."
Ed glanced speechlessly at the center of the battle. Indeed, as Xu Ning had said, it was clear that this humanoid being was about to be defeated.
"I've been wanting to ask you this for a while now, why do you always call him 'sister'..."
Before Ed could finish speaking, the Abyss Apostle in the arena let out a roar, and its entire body suddenly turned into a cloud of black mist and dissipated.
Ying turned around. "The door is open. Let's go in."
Xu Ning didn't have time to chat with Ed at this moment, and jumped up and walked towards the slowly opening door.
“I’ll go in first. You keep an eye on Ed. If I’m not mistaken, the real culprit should be here.”
The hall remained empty, its structure remarkably similar to the previous halls.
However, in the very center of the hall, a huge purple crystal was suspended upside down by layers of iron chains, and wisps of purplish-black mist emanated from the crystal.
On the half-broken corridor, two Hilichurls were still worshipping devoutly.
"This feeling of déjà vu is so strong, it seems like I've seen this scene somewhere before?"
Xu Ning scratched his chin in confusion and muttered to himself.
Ying, who was nearby, overheard this and whispered a reminder: "Inside Mount Okuzō..."
Xu Ning suddenly realized—it was an upside-down statue of a drunkard!
Although I don't remember what the reversed idol was called, the posture of the treasure thief kneeling there was extremely similar to that of the person next to me!
"Hey... Ed, why are you kneeling? This must be related to some kind of power in the abyss. You go with Ying quickly, I..."
Before Xu Ning could finish speaking, he felt a series of murmurs seemingly resounding directly in his mind.
"What an unexpected reunion, at the end of time, looking back at the beginning of everything."
Xu Ning looked around, somewhat bewildered. Ed knelt there calmly, seemingly deep in thought, while Ying frowned and looked around as if searching for a non-existent enemy.
"Is this voice only I can hear? Hey, excuse me, who's whispering? Are you sure you haven't mistaken me for someone else?"
