173 Chu Jiuyue is a PUS 3

She murmured to herself, "Little Eight, if my intuition tells me I'm not mistaken, the original owner of this body—Chu Jiuyue—didn't really die. Her soul might still exist in this world, right?"

After he finished speaking, the surroundings fell into a deathly silence, as if time had frozen.

Xiao Ba kept repeating to himself, "I can't hear you, I can't hear you, I can't hear anything..."

It was determined to continue playing dumb to the end.

Unfortunately, Chu Jiuyue was completely focused on her conversation with Xiao Ba and didn't notice the subtle changes happening to the man beside her.

Just as Chu Jiuyue finished speaking, the man who had been standing silently to the side suddenly trembled slightly. A look of astonishment flashed across his deep eyes, as if he had heard the most unbelievable words in the world.

However, this expression only lasted for a brief moment before disappearing without a trace. Unless someone is paying close attention, it would be difficult to notice anything unusual.

Unfortunately, Chu Jiuyue, who was completely focused on communicating with Xiao Ba at this moment, was completely unaware of Mo Wenchen's unusual behavior. She remained immersed in her own thoughts and continued to ask:

"Little Eight, then tell me, when exactly will I be able to get rid of this body and regain my freedom?"

Although Chu Jiuyue failed to get the answer she expected from Xiao Ba, the other party's silence spoke volumes.

This very cautious probing nearly scared Mo Wenchen out of his wits.

"Host, stop daydreaming! You'll never escape this in your lifetime. Besides, this body originally belonged to you." Xiao Ba's words reached Chu Jiuyue's ears.

"...Do you take me for a fool?"

Chu Jiuyue snorted coldly, her eyes as cold as ice, staring straight at Xiao Ba, and continued to press, "The original owner was sickly and had a high fever, yet you dared to claim that you were mine? Do you think I'm easy to fool, or are you certain that this will make me assist you unconditionally?"

Her voice grew colder, as if it could freeze the air.

Xiao Ba trembled and stammered, "Host... I have no intention of deceiving you! This body is indeed yours! The reason you are feverish is because carrying your body here has consumed a lot of energy. Furthermore, your body is new to this world and naturally needs some time to adapt to the new environment."

As for the original owner's body that you mentioned, it no longer exists.

The moment you arrived here, as the original owner's soul dissipated from this body, her physical form also vanished without a trace because of your arrival.

Therefore, according to you, it was you who used your powerful strength to help me bring my body here.

It just so happened that the original owner died of a high fever at that time, so I naturally took over her memories and always mistakenly believed that this body originally belonged to the original owner.

While pondering to herself, Chu Jiuyue continued to boldly guess, "I suppose that's probably the case."

Although I know in my heart that these are just speculations, deep down I feel that the truth is probably true.
