Chapter 327: Don’t fucking add scenes for yourself!

“The dragon has eaten Shi Xiaobai!”

The rookies exclaimed. Just a moment ago, they saw Shi Xiaobai engaging in a massacre, and the next moment, an ugly dragon suddenly appeared out of thin air, devouring Shi Xiaobai into its belly.

The crowd stared with widened eyes as their breathing stopped. They found the scene that had happened unbelievable. What was more unbelievable was that Shi Xiaobai did not struggle after being devoured, as though he was a rock that had sunk into the bottom of the ocean without even the slightest action.

Shi Xiaobai was devoured by a dragon. Was he dead just like that?

“No!”

In the next moment, many people had their eyes red.

“Kill the dragon, save Shi Xiaobai!”

Everyone was filled with panic and anger as they rushed into the valley, prepared to slaughter the dragon, rip out its stomach and save the devoured Shi Xiaobai.

Even if he were dead, they wanted to see his corpse!

Shi Xiaobai looked at the flustered and furious expressions the crowd had and immediately felt somewhat moved. Even though the ‘dragon’ they wanted to kill was him, he was still more happy than sad.

This time, there was no black-robed youth for Shi Xiaobai to kill to instill fear in their hearts. Furthermore, in the hallucination, the person devoured by the dragon was ‘Shi Xiaobai’, so how could the rookies hold back. Their anger could not be restrained as their anxiety was consuming them.

Shi Xiaobai remained calm. With swords in both hands, he welcomed the crowd charging at him. Lifting his sword, he slashed out at the same time.

Right hand, Kun Peng’s Sword of Wind!

Left hand, Kun Peng’s Sword of Water!

A sword unison attack, with the Sword of Wind and Sword of Water perfectly harmonizing, the sky was immediately filled with snow and the ground was covered in frost!

The sword beams were domineering and the cold was chilling. The biting cold sword beams froze the rookies leading the charge. They could not help but shiver in cold.

The rookies charge was slowed down by Shi Xiaobai’s Kun Peng Wind-Snow Sword.

At the same time, Shi Xiaobai took the initiative to rush towards the crowd.

With Crab Steps at the Crest of Perfection, this speed caught the rookies off guard. The constantly changing figures were dazzling.

“The dragon is coming!”

“It’s so fast! How is the dragon so fast?”

“No, it’s too cold. I can’t move or withstand it!”

The rookies exclaimed. At this moment, the valley was filled with snow-wind sword beams. Their bodies had yet to acclimatize to the sudden biting chill in the air. Immediately, their actions turned sluggish, so there was no way for them to follow Shi Xiaobai.

They could only watch as the dragon in their eyes flew past their heads at an extremely fast speed.

But what shocked the rookies was that the dragon did not attack them. It only chose to escape.

That’s not right, the dragon had taken a person away during the chaos!

“Liuji (Naked Dick) has been abducted by the dragon!”

Someone knew the rookie that had been unfortunate enough to be abducted by the dragon as he immediately exclaimed aloud.

Most of the rookies did not know this person’s name, but they knew this person. He was the one who had derided Shi Xiaobai previously, and had been smacked in the face by Shi Xiaobai’s awesome one punch. He had then gone into the woods to run naked.

At this moment, the dragon had not forgotten to take Naked Dick with him.

Was the dragon that hungry?

So hungry that he was not picky with food!?

“Quickly, chase!”

The rookies obviously would not allow him to escape easily. Very soon, they overcame the stiffness of the chill, and rushed to pursue the dragon.

With Naked Dick in hand, Shi Xiaobai ran and lowered his head at the wailing Naked Dick. He said coldly, “This King knows that you aren’t hallucinating. If you continue acting, This King will really be a dragon and slaughter you!”

Naked Dick’s face immediately turned pale and stopped crying for help. His lips trembled as he said, “Don’t…Big Brother Shi Xiaobai. I thought I was the one who was hallucinating… They kept calling you a dragon, so I didn’t dare to disagree…”

When Shi Xiaobai heard this, he immediately heaved a sigh of relief. It was obviously only a guess when he said that he knew that Naked Dick was not hallucinating.

In the previous timeline, Shi Xiaobai had been pincered by the rookies and the black-robed youth. Back then, Shi Xiaobai could clearly sense a hatred from the black-robed youth. The vicious hatred was more intense than the rest.

The black-robed youth clearly did not have such intense hatred for the dragon, so it was more likely that the black-robed youth was not under the effects of the hallucination. The black-robed youth was able to see him, which resulted in the intense hatred.

By grasping this minor detail, Shi Xiaobai pondered deeply over it.

Why was the black-robed youth not hallucinating?

It could very likely have to do with location, that the initiation of the hallucination was location-specific, and at that moment in time, the black-robed youth was not within that area.

This was the most likely possibility, but it did not help Shi Xiaobai in any way. Therefore, he could only continue pondering over other possibilities.

If the hallucination was not location-specific, what could result in the rookies having hallucinations while the black-robed youth wouldn’t?

It had to be something the rookies had in common which the black-robed youth did not have. If he ruled out the possibility of location, Shi Xiaobai could only think of one item…diamonds!

The strange diamond monster had been reduced to diamonds after it shattered. It was something all the rookies had which the black-robed youth did not!

Kali was powerful so she was not affected by the hallucinations, so she could be ignored. Therefore, the possibility of the diamond being the reason was very likely!

And among the rookies, there was one person who did not have a diamond. It was the youth that went running naked, Naked Dick!

If the diamonds were the cause of the hallucinations, Naked Dick should not be hallucinating!

With this guess in mind, Shi Xiaobai decided to run in this timeline. And while running, he abducted Naked Dick.

The Heavens did not disappoint Shi Xiaobai’s wit. Naked Dick was really not under the effects of the hallucination.

However, Naked Dick was a timid person. Be it the previous timeline or the present timeline, he was not affected by the hallucination. However, he did not dare to come out alone to clear Shi Xiaobai’s name while the crowd was clamoring to kill the dragon. He was afraid to be treated as an alien and had instead echoed the crowd.

Shi Xiaobai was somewhat infuriated, but he was quickly put at ease.

How could you count on a coward who could pee himself out of fear to risk the denouncement of a mob while pointing at the dragon in front of everybody and shout, “This is no dragon. This is Shi Xiaobai”?

“Damn it, This King will give you one more chance. In a while, you have to do as This King says, or This King will really throw you in front of the real dragon.” Shi Xiaobai said in an ominous fashion. Giving a sermon to a coward was useless. Forcefully coercing him was the only way.

Obviously, Naked Dick did not dare to refuse. He hurriedly patted his chest and assured Shi Xiaobai that he would do as he said, with a look of unflinching righteousness.

…

The rookies pursued anxiously. Although Mu Yuesheng was fast, her Lightning Flashstep could only let her move in a straight line. And for some reason, the dragon had seen through her weakness. It was constantly curving while proceeding ahead at an extremely fast speed. Mu Yuesheng was anxious for there was no way for her to catch up to it.

It was needless to speak about the other rookies. In terms of movement techniques, none of them could match Shi Xiaobai. They could only watch as the dragon in their eyes opened up a gap from them.

Just as the rookies were beginning to feel a hint of despair, the dragon suddenly stopped. Standing in front, it seemed to be waiting for them!

The rookies came in droves and quickly surrounded the motionless dragon. This time, they could not let the dragon escape!

“Darn dragon, die!”

Someone did not wish to wait a moment longer and attacked in anger.

“Stop! You fools!”

A voice that no one expected resounded. They saw Naked Dick that had been abducted by the dragon walk out and pointed to the dragon. He cried in outrage, “Do you know what all of you are doing? This is no dragon, it’s Shi Xiaobai!”

The crowd was startled as they revealed looks of shock, but soon they were relieved.

“It seems like Naked Dick has been brainwashed by the dragon.”

“What do we do? We can’t kill Naked Dick, right?”

“Quickly kill the dragon. As for Naked Dick, let’s knock him out first!”

The crowd obviously wouldn’t believe in Naked Dick’s ‘drivel’. They only believed the reality before their eyes. This was clearly an ugly dragon!

However, there were people who had their doubts. This was because they could not believe that the dragon could so easily devour Shi Xiaobai. Unlike the previous timeline with Ka Xiaozi, the crowd found the likelihood of Shi Xiaobai being devoured by the dragon without any acts by him very slim. A powerful person like Shi Xiaobai could be in the midst of a grand plan.

Seeing how the crowd did not believe him, Naked Dick’s expression turned ugly. He knew that this matter was risky. If he was treated as an accomplice of the dragon, he would be doomed.

However, Shi Xiaobai’s sword was against his back, so Naked Dick did not dare to back down.

Naked Dick pretended to look extremely depressed as he looked at the crowd. He said in a solemn voice, “I’m very, very, very disappointed! All of you claim to be Shi Xiaobai’s partners, friends, admirers, lackeys, confidants, intimate mistresses. Some even call themselves Shi Xiaobai’s son. Yet, now all of you are trying to kill Shi Xiaobai because of a low-grade hallucination technique. Seriously…”

Naked Dick said aggrieved, as if there was no end. Shi Xiaobai finally found it unbearable and interrupted him, “Quickly get to the point. Don’t fucking add scenes for yourself!”

Naked Dick immediately gave a bitter smile. Seeing how the crowd was looking intolerant, as though they wanted to attack, Naked Dick lamented in his heart. Once, I had a chance of posturing, but I was only able to posture for a few seconds. The world’s greatest tragedy is nothing compared to this.

“If all of you do not believe me, throw away the diamonds on your bodies. Open your eyes and see if this dragon is Shi Xiaobai or not!”

Naked Dick shouted with a hoarse throat. This was the key sentence, and probably his last line for his appearance. He had to do a good job.

When everyone heard this, they looked at him as though he was a fool.

Did this fool mean that the diamonds had caused them to hallucinate, viewing Shi Xiaobai as the dragon?

Heavens, this joke wasn’t funny at all.

“Putong!”

Mu Yuesheng and company who were in the forefront of the crowd decisively took out the diamonds they had and threw it on the ground.

They would rather believe it to be the truth than not.

When Mu Yuesheng and company threw out the diamonds, they immediately exclaimed while covering their mouths.

“It’s true. It’s really Lord Shi Xiaobai!”

“So it was really an illusion. We nearly…”

“Didn’t I say? How could Shi Xiaobai be so easily devoured by a dragon? With his strength, ten dragons wouldn’t even be a match for him!”

The rookies that threw away the diamonds were immediately no longer under the influence of the hallucinations. Realizing how they had nearly killed Shi Xiaobai in anger, they felt a lingering sense of fear.

The other rookies naturally did not dare to doubt. They hesitatingly threw away the diamonds they had.

Very soon, nearly all the rookies had thrown away their diamonds. Seeing the dragon immediately transform into Shi Xiaobai, one rookie after another exclaimed at the realism of the hallucination.

The ground was filled with diamonds. They had been something the rookies coveted previously, but now, they were like land mines. Everyone shunned them in fear.

What a joke. If these diamonds could create hallucinations, what if a hallucination appeared one day, changing a fat sow into a naked beauty, what would happen?

Noticing how the crowd had been freed of their hallucinations, Shi Xiaobai immediately grinned.

The black-robed youth was dead!

The invisible monsters were all wiped out!

The hallucinations had been lifted!

There was only a timid dragon cowardly shivering somewhere!

How are you to kill This King?

What other moves do you have?

If any, use them as soon as possible!

This King will take it all on!
