ใThe results are terrible! This Wednesday, I have a double recommendation on the Jiang Potential and New Book Elite lists... I need everyone's clicks and recommendations to be more supportive. Additionally, I continue to shamelessly ask for donations, with extra updates for donations!ใ
"Damn, why is the Dark Dragon King roaring at this moment!" Gu Han's face changed drastically. According to the forum records, once the Dark Dragon King Xiu Naida roars, it means he has recovered and is about to attack the top of Wudang Mountain. However, such roars only occur one minute before the mission ends, when the reinforcements from Yanjing City arrive. At that time, naturally, the Yanjing City's Immortal Sword-level swordsmen will deal with the Dark Dragon King Xiu Naida, and the players just need to wait for the mission to end!
"Could I have miscalculated the time? Is the mission almost over?" Gu Han immediately glanced at the system time. No, there were still about twenty minutes left until the mission ended.
Seeing that the time hadn't changed, a strong sense of foreboding immediately filled Gu Han's heart. This instance was about to face another change!
"King Yue, how is the situation outside?" Gu Han immediately communicated with King Yue through Sword Trace.
"Haha," King Yue laughed loudly, "You scoundrel, you don't know, just now three stupid minotaurs ran up, and when I glared at them, they were scared and ran away. It must be the aura of a king that scared them!"
"Scare my sister!" Gu Han blurted out in a hurry, "Observe the situation outside, and tell me immediately if anything unusual happens!" He then forcibly hung up the communication, ignoring King Yue's angry protests on the other end.
"I hope it's not the worst-case scenario!" Gu Han had a vague idea of a possibility. If that were the case, he would truly be helpless. The huge gap in realms was not something any sword technique could make up for.
However, he needed to speed up and deal with these five ghosts. He couldn't wait twenty minutes; otherwise, if something unexpected happened and they broke free from their bindings, all his efforts would be in vain.
"Yuan Kong, release the Water Cold Sword!" Gu Han once again ordered Yuan Kong to release the Water Cold Sword. When the physical form of Water Cold appeared before Gu Han, he quickly walked to the side of Ghost A, You Ruo, pinched her head, which was shaking uncontrollably, and said urgently, "No time to explain, kiss her lips quickly!"
"What?" Water Cold, who had just been released and was still a bit disoriented, was dumbfounded. What was going on? Why did she have to kiss a woman? She wasn't a lesbian!
"Yuan Kong, use a forced command to control Water Cold and make her kiss this woman's lips!" Gu Han knew that Water Cold was a completely straight woman, and it would take at least ten minutes to convince her to kiss a woman, so he chose to have Yuan Kong issue a forced command!
"This..." Yuan Kong hesitated. He could see that Water Cold was unwilling to do this, and in fact, he didn't want his sword maiden to do this either.
"Yuan Kong, I don't have time to chat with you. I'll count to three... If you don't make Water Cold kiss her, I'll kill this woman to avoid trouble later!" Gu Han decided to use a simple and brutal method. Generally, only villains would use such methods, not good people.
"One, two..."
"Water Cold, I command you! Do as the Commander says!" Yuan Kong finally gave in to Gu Han's threat. Water Cold, helpless, moved forward involuntarily and kissed You Ruo's lips. At that moment, Water Cold cried...
"Don't just kiss, breathe into her mouth... like CPR," Gu Han continued.
"Damn... If you had said CPR, I wouldn't have been so resistant, and I wouldn't have cried..." Water Cold cried even harder when she heard Gu Han's words. Her sense of propriety... was gone.
No one on the scene knew why Gu Han was acting so strangely, but they soon understood. When Water Cold breathed into You Ruo's mouth, You Ruo, who had been convulsing like she was having a seizure, suddenly calmed down, and black smoke began to rise from the top of her head.
"Next!" After the black smoke above You Ruo's head disappeared, Gu Han released You Ruo, letting her fall into a coma, and then grabbed the head of another possessed girl, which was shaking uncontrollably. "You can untie You Ruo now; the ghost inside her has turned into black smoke and died! They will wake up in a few dozen minutes."
Gu Han wouldn't tell them that the black smoke was caused by the ghost's electromagnetic waves being forced to explode by Water Cold's aura, burning the girls' cerebral cortex. Although it wouldn't kill the girls, they would likely become vegetative... After all, they were just data.
"Commander! Did you make Water Cold do this to accelerate the elimination of the ghosts?" Yuan Kong asked hopefully. He felt guilty about making Water Cold do something she didn't want to do, but if it was for a good cause, his conscience would be more at ease. People are like that; they force others to do things they don't want to do and then use another good deed to comfort themselves.
For example, when a mother doesn't let you watch TV and makes you study, she says it's for your better future, but in reality, it's just to look good in front of the neighbors... It's the same principle.
"That's right. The Water Cold Sword has been venerated for eight hundred years, giving her the ability to expel evil spirits! Her incense aura is the greatest harm to ghosts. One breath from her is worth a hundred talismans you draw!" Gu Han explained casually. This was also why he brought the Water Cold Sword to Chao Tian Palace, to prepare for such emergencies.

"Scoundrel! Something terrible has happened! A dragon! A dragon is flying up!" When all the ghosts had been dealt with and the five girls had become vegetative, King Yue's panicked voice came through Sword Trace to Gu Han's mind. Gu Han's heart sank; the worst had indeed happened.
"Stay here, don't go out!" Gu Han left this message and rushed out of Chao Tian Palace. At that moment, King Yue, Tian Xing, and Yue Ling, the three sword maidens, were all standing at the edge of the cliff, looking down.
Gu Han also rushed over and looked down. Good grief, a huge black dragon was rhythmically flapping its giant wings, steadily ascending to the mountaintop.
Judging by the dragon's slow ascent and relaxed posture, it clearly didn't consider the humans on the mountaintop a threat. It treated this as a game, and once it reached the top, it would be a massive slaughter! However, this also gave Gu Han some time to escape the instance before the Dark Dragon King reached the mountaintop.
"Can't fight!" Gu Han immediately made this judgment. The Dark Dragon King Xiu Naida, equivalent to an Immortal Sword-level swordsman, was far beyond his capabilities! This was not an opponent he could challenge with just sword techniques. With his mere 500 sword essence points and 5,000 sword qi points, he couldn't even scratch the dragon if he tried.
If Gu Han had the sword essence points of a Spirit Sword-level swordsman, he might have had the confidence to fight and buy some time. But now... the best option was to get as far away as possible. After all, this was an instance. Forcibly exiting would only mean losing the instance rewards, nothing more!
"Let's leave the instance!" Gu Han made a quick decision, grabbed King Yue's hand, and pulled her to his side.
"Leave?" King Yue was unwilling. "What about the survivors here? They're counting on us to protect them!"
"Just data!" Gu Han said, turning and walking back into Chao Tian Palace, where the exit to forcibly leave the instance was located.
"What did you say?" King Yue suddenly pulled her hand away, looking at Gu Han with anger. She clenched her teeth and said, "I won't leave. I'll stay here even if I break!"
"You..." Seeing King Yue's determined expression, Gu Han was touched and softened his tone: "I need a reason. The Dark Dragon King has acted prematurely. Twenty minutes is enough for him to wipe out the humans on the mountaintop twenty times. Whether we stay or leave, the outcome will be the same. Do you understand?"
"Because I'm just data too!" King Yue looked up, meeting Gu Han's eyes. "If one day I'm about to die, would you abandon me because I'm just data, right?"
"King Yue is right! I would abandon her because that's the kind of person I am! King Yue is just a pile of data in the game..." Gu Han answered himself in his heart.
"I won't!" Gu Han shook his head firmly in front of King Yue. "You are my sword maiden, and I will never abandon you!"
"Really?" King Yue's expression softened. So, women need to be comforted... Even if you're thinking about going to Dongguan, you still have to say, "I only love you, I'm just on a business trip..." Otherwise, the world would be too cruel. In a sense, lies make the world a warmer place.
"Then promise me, stay and fight to the end!" King Yue smiled. "Even if we're killed by the Dark Dragon King, it's just a matter of exiting the instance later. The outcome is the same. We don't need to leave! Let's fight to the end, okay?"
Gu Han's head ached when he heard this. There was a difference between forcibly exiting the instance and exiting after being killed. In "Sword Maiden OL," there was no experience loss, but if a swordsman or sword maiden died, they would be banned from the game for three days. This was to discourage players from not valuing their lives or their sword maidens.
Logically, Gu Han should have immediately agreed to King Yue's request. If they died, it would only mean a three-day ban, but it would greatly increase his affection with King Yue, a good deal.
However, Gu Han hesitated... His rational mind told him to agree, but his instinct kept him from doing so... In Gu Han's heart, there was a secret no one knew... Gu Han was terrified of death, extremely terrified. He was terrified, even in the game!
"Okay, we'll fight to the end!" Gu Han nodded at King Yue, and she instantly smiled brightly.
It wasn't that Gu Han was convinced by King Yue, but the system notification came:
"System Notification: Player Gu Han, due to your abnormal behavior, the Dark Dragon King Xiu Naida has acted prematurely. The system is in a closed state, and the exit has been closed. Please hold out until the reinforcements arrive. Successfully completing the instance will double the rewards five times; if you die in the instance, you will be unable to enter any instances for three days. Enjoy your game!"
