Gu Jing is infamous throughout the System. Everyone who sees her has to call her cold-blooded, but her unquestionable skill, which puts her at No. 1 on the combat rankings, still draws countless people to her.
Three years into retirement, a mysterious message lures her into a dungeon. She never expects that half the ten people in this intermediate-level dungeon are out to kill her. Even more surprising, one of them doesn't want her dead.
Gu Jing beats up the boss with one hand and takes down werewolves with the other. She thinks that once they leave the dungeon, she'll never have anything to do with them again. But the one person who doesn't want her dead had already killed her once.
Gu Jing: 666, turns out I'm a legendary hard-to-kill champ.
Fei Bai: I can't tell you why, but you have to listen to me, ahhh!
Gu Jing: Listen to yourself. Do you hear a single word that makes sense?
Fei Bai (fragile-hearted, so he promptly keels over): ...
Gu Jing: ? You actually died?
Fei Bai: Hehe, bet you didn't expect me to come back to life.
Gu Jing (speechless): You should stay dead.
So Fei Bai really was stabbed to death by her (the next two hundred thousand words have been omitted).
