Because of the opponent's words, Jiang Che forcibly interrupted his attack and fell back to the ground.
"Wow..."
The chain shook, making a dull yet crisp sound.
Zhuge Ye trotted up to Jiang Che, "My brother, what did she just call you? Master? Did she call you master?"
Su Xiaojin: "..."
Zhuge Ye: "My brother, you had a great time. When did it happen? Aren't you afraid of frostbite?"
Su Xiaojin: "..."
"Go and die." Jiang Che pushed Zhuge Ye away, looked at the girl hanging in the air by chains, and asked.
"Why did you call me master."
The girl's blue-white eyes are like two ice lotuses.
At this time, her eyes were trembling slightly, "Because you are my master."
"Master, you are finally back to see little Jiji."
"???" Jiang Che paused instantly.
On the side was Zhuge Ye: "Well... Puff! Puff puff! Ah ha ha ha ha... Brother Che, when did you drop that thing? Let me look at it, let me look at it, hahaha..."
Su Xiaojin: "Probably... no..."
"choke!"
Jiang Che drew out the black knife, and Zhuge Ye immediately shut his mouth and forced himself to enter vibration mode.
Seeing that Jiang Che didn't respond to her, the girl spoke again.
"Owner……"
"Little Jiji misses you so much..."
Zhuge Ye covered his mouth: "Kukukuku..."
Jiang Che was really confused, so he said, "What's your name?"
"Little Ji Ji."
"full name……"
"Xue Ji, this is the name given to me by the master. Has the master forgotten it?"
Seeing Jiang Che's confused expression, Xue Ji seemed to feel aggrieved, and crystal clear ice crystals kept falling out of her eyes.
At this time, Xiaoman's voice sounded in his mind: "Be careful, maybe she is deliberately confusing you."
Jiang Che: "Yeah, I know."
"Since I am your master, let me ask you a few questions now." Jiang Che said while on guard.
Xue Ji: "Master, just ask. Little Ji Ji will tell you everything she knows."
"There will be a deduction for homophonic memes... Just call yourself Xiaoxue." Jiang Che said with a dark face.
Xue Ji: "Good master."
Jiang Che: "Where are you from?"
Xue Ji: "Master forgot..."
"Don't talk nonsense, just tell me if I ask you!"
After being scolded by Jiang Che, Xue Ji shrank her neck back like a little rabbit, "Xiao Xue comes from the Death Glacier..."
"Why are you here?" Jiang Che asked again.
Xue Ji: "Because the Lord of the Glacier destroyed part of the master's remaining power, a bloody crack appeared between the death glacier and the real world. The master said that if this happens, those guys must be stopped from running over."
"That's why Xiaoxue appears here to stop those who want to come from the glacier."
"Haha...make it up, keep making it up." Jiang Che sneered.
Xue Ji: "Master, everything Xiaoxue said is true."
Jiang Che: "Okay, then let me ask you, since you said you are here to stop the secrets from infiltrating, then why did I just meet a ghost that can change its appearance?"
"ah!"
"Then, maybe he sneaked out when Xiaoxue wasn't paying attention."
Xue Ji's voice became even louder: "Master, I'm sorry, it's Xiaoxue's fault, Xiaoxue just fell asleep... Master, I'm sorry..."
Jiang Che: "Haha... I'll ask you again, why are you hung here by these two chains."
"It's the Lord of the Glacier. These were originally used to imprison him, but now he has broken free from the chains, and he was afraid that Xiaoxue would ask his master for help, so he used the chains to trap Xiaoxue here." Xue Ji explained.
Jiang Che: "Then since the Lord of Glacier has broken free, why didn't he come out to kill you?"
"Because of the ice prison."
"Ice Prison?!"
"After he broke free from the shackles of the chains, the master's power in the ice prison awakened. It was precisely because of this that Xiaoxue was able to see his master again..."
"..."
Xue Ji's words made Jiang Che fall into silence.
The credibility is not high.
The logic is sparse.
At any other time, Jiang Che would have killed her with a single blow, regardless of whether she was a big Jiji or a little Jiji.
But now it's about prison, so we have to be more cautious.
After a while, Jiang Che asked: "Then why do you think I am your master? Have you... seen me before?"
"Xiaoxue will never mistake his master."
"Although the master used to wear a mask and never showed his true face, Xiaoxue will never admit his mistake."
"The aura on the master's body is the same as these chains!"
Jiang Che asked the last question: "So, are you my ghost?"
Xiaoxue: "Xiaoxue is not qualified to be the master's ghost. Xiaoxue is the master's slave."
"..."
Although the information was very messy, after sorting it out, Jiang Che finally figured it out.
If Xue Ji is lying, then all this is naturally meaningless.
But if what she said is true.
Then, the "owner" she talks about should be the previous owner of Zhutian Prison, or another person who is closely related to Zhutian Prison.
As for the death glacier, the Lord of Glaciers, it is not something that needs to be considered now.
For Jiang Che, there are only two points that need to be clarified now.
1. Xue Ji’s authenticity.
Second, the purpose of bringing him to Tianma Pass.
When Zhuge Ye and Su Xiaojin were still confused, Jiang Che said, "Let's go back."
"Huh? Ah? Just go back like this?" Zhuge Ye stretched his neck and asked.
Jiang Che smiled and said, "If what Xue Ji said is true, then they should already be waiting for us up there."
"They? Who?" Zhuge Ye's face was filled with question marks.
"You still have to say what Deputy Guan Ning said?" Jiang Che asked as he walked back.
Zhuge Ye: "Can you please stop showing off?"
Jiang Che: "What we want to complete is the test set by the master."
"But according to the information I got from Sister Hongling, the assessment to become a gatekeeper does not require the gatekeeper to come forward."
"The gatekeepers are selected from the Conspiracy Warriors, and the assessment has always had corresponding standards and modes."
"Obviously, we're getting special treatment again."
Zhuge Ye scratched his head and said: "The master of the Pass that day must be at the taboo level, right?"
"That's inevitable. Otherwise, how could we suppress the things at the bottom of the abyss?"
"So we will... meet the master of the gate soon? A forbidden-level challenger?!!!" Zhuge Ye exclaimed in surprise.
The taboo level is the ceiling level in both mysteries and humans.
Until now, Jiang Che has never seen a forbidden level challenger.
Following the steps, the three of them quickly returned to the platform.
At the same time, they also brought back the body of the gatekeeper that was frozen on the rock wall.
Ning Wu sat aside with several empty wine bottles next to him, looking at the three of them with a smile.
At the same time, there was another person beside him.
The man was dressed in white, with white hair, his back to everyone, and a straight posture.
Jiang Che raised his eyebrows.
"Guanzhu, Deputy Guanzhu Ning."
"Can you tell me why you asked me to come to Tianma Pass?"
