Chapter 455: What do you want to talk about? I’ll accompany you

This was not a world Shi Xiaobai was familiar with. It was not the human world, nor was it the world of trials created by the mysterious assessment program. Instead, it was a completely unfamiliar world that he had seen for the first time.

The reason why he knew this was because of the two different-sized suns that were hanging in the sky.

And what made him deeply understand such a fact was because of the black beams of light that were constantly being shot from every direction. Each beam was aimed directly at one of his vital body parts. It was as though the beams wanted to riddle him with holes and let him die tragically.

Therefore, this was not only an unfamiliar world, it was a mysterious and dangerous world.

And while inside such a world, he could not use any strength because he was completely drained of his energies. He felt weak.

Logically speaking, with him unable to put up any resistance, he should have died within a short period of time, but at that very moment, Shi Xiaobai remained alive after a few minutes. He maintained slow but rhythmic breaths, as he recovered his stamina at an extremely slow pace.

The reason why he was able to luckily survive was not because he still had some hidden trick that could allow him to turn the tide despite his situation, but because someone was protecting him. It was a perfect protection.

“Peng! Peng! Peng! Peng! …”

This time, an unknown number of black beams shot from every direction. In order to protect him better, the girl split her legs and straddled above the lying Shi Xiaobai. She calmly brandished the golden sword in her hand and precisely and elegantly shattered all the black beams of light.

Thankfully, the girl was wearing trousers and a robe because she was disguised as a male, if not, Shi Xiaobai would have gotten an eyeful. But from what he could see with his head facing up, he definitely could have his mind thronged with thoughts.

The girl, who had managed to block a countless number of black beams, was breathing in a calm manner. She did not look exhausted, but her expression appeared a little flustered.

Finally, the girl could not help but say, “Hey! I say, have you recovered the strength needed to talk?”

Shi Xiaobai gave an embarrassed smile. He had asked with great difficulty, ‘what’s the situation’. The girl in front of him had told him ‘the situation is very complicated… we need to have a good chat’, but unfortunately, he did not even have the strength to speak.

However, if it was just explaining the present situation, it did not seem like he needed to talk. It was sufficient for the girl to tell him on her own.

However, the girl seemed to have a strange obsession with ‘chatting’. It was as though she needed him to recover his strength to be able to speak before she was willing to explain the situation.

Immediately following that, under the perfect protection of the girl, even though the black beams of light were shooting at them incessantly, with each wave more powerful than the other, not a single part of him was harmed. The black beams of light were shattered by the sword beams in mid-air.

Shi Xiaobai did not mind the feeling of being protected. Instead, he felt gratitude for the girl, but he knew that if it went on, the girl would be drained of her stamina in time to come. Therefore, he was constantly working hard to recover his stamina.

But his usage of Excalibur this time had completely emptied him. Not only did he not have an ounce of strength, even his self-recovery ability had also become extremely slow. After a very long time, the strength he recovered was utterly inadequate.

He probably needed a long period of sleep to fully recover, but he no longer had the time left.

And the amount of strength he had gone through great pains to recover was truly pathetically minute. If it was used to speak, it might not be able to last for long.

But at that moment, after hearing the girl urge him once again, he could sense the eagerness and thirst in the girl’s sentences. Shi Xiaobai immediately fell into a dilemma.

From the looks of it, she really wanted to ‘chat’?

Why did she have such a strange desire?

However, with her putting in such effort to protect him, couldn’t he satisfy this tiny wish of hers?

Although ‘chatting’ could very well expend the pathetically minute amounts of energy that he accumulated over such a long period of time, he would have been a dead corpse if not for her.

The conclusion was very simple, wasn’t it?

“Yea, This King has sufficient strength to talk, so let’s have a good talk,” said Shi Xiaobai gently after he remained silent for a moment.

“Alright!”

The girl’s voice was filled with an unconcealed excitement before she eagerly said, “Then…”

However, just as she said that word, another wave of black beams shot attacked from various directions.

“Damn it!”

The girl cursed softly as her sharp eyes scanned her surroundings. Sweeping her sword, she slashed out several sword beams and precisely shattered the black beams of light. She did not waste even one sword beam.

“How can we happily chat if this continues?”

The girl grumbled softly.

Shi Xiaobai was extremely surprised. Was the girl that was standing above him that deadpan and cold Hero King who had beheaded the gargantuan? She had never had a change in expression prior to this!

The grumbling tone and the curses she muttered to herself. Wasn’t…the transformation too huge?

Shi Xiaobai looked up at the exquisite face and coincidentally, the girl lowered her head. Their eyes locked as the mood suddenly turned delicate.

The girl gradually lifted her left hand as she cast her eyes at a strangely designed ring on her index finger. With a sigh, she said, “It looks like that’s the only way.”

As the girl spoke, she seemed to have made up her mind. Taking off her ring, she threw it into the sky.

“Shell of the Black Turtle!”

The ring emitted a rainbow radiance before suddenly transforming into a translucent turtle shell that fell from the sky and covered them.

At the same moment, dozens of black beams shot out from the world as they headed towards the two. However, they crashed into the translucent turtle shell.

With a ‘splash’, as though a rock had dropped into water, the dozens of black beams seemed to melt as they disappeared from the surface of the turtle shell.

“What impressive defense.”

Shi Xiaobai could not help but marvel at the impressive defense of the translucent turtle shell.

The girl took a glance at the unblemished turtle shell and gave a satisfied nod. Then she took a few steps back before she slowly sat beside the boy.

“The Shell of the Black Turtle should be able to last a while. Let’s take advantage of this moment to recover our stamina, and have a chat…in passing?”

As the girl spoke, she changed her tone subtly. It was easy for others to read what was on her mind.

Shi Xiaobai could not help but find it amusing. It appeared as though ‘chatting’ had a special attraction to the girl. Did she really have some important and complicated matter that she needed to discuss carefully with him?

Shi Xiaobai did not know at that very moment that the ring named ‘Shell of the Black Turtle’ the girl threw out was a legendary artefact and that it was a one-time use consumable. It was an important item given to her by her family clan to save her in times of danger, but she had lavishly used it in order to be able to ‘happily chat without being disturbed’.

Of course, to the girl, being able to ‘happily chat without being disturbed’ was much more valuable than a legendary artefact.

“Then…what do we talk about?”

You might not believe it, but the person who said such a sentence was not Shi Xiaobai, but the girl who had just sat down.

Shi Xiaobai nearly spat out a mouthful of blood. He did not know where he found the strength as he pressed the ground with both his hands to forcefully sit up. But midway, due to the lack of strength, he collapsed back down.

He did not slam heavily into the ground, but instead fell into a soft embrace.

The girl had embraced him in time and even allowed him to rest on her shoulder.

“It looks like you don’t like lying down while chatting? Great, I don’t like conversing from a higher position either.”

As the girl said that, she adjusted her position. She allowed the boy in her arms face her. The two of them hugged each other like a couple, but one of them had his arms slumped to his side, while the girl was hugging the boy by herself.

Shi Xiaobai was left dazed for a moment as his body suddenly stiffened. But due to a lack of strength, he could only rest his head on the girl’s shoulder. Her golden hair fluttered in the wind as they caressed his face. A fragrance entered his olfactory senses as he made skin contact with her. It felt like soft and warm sunlight from spring. When the girl spoke softly, her lips were by his ears. A gentle voice seemed to be flowing with a warm and moist fragrance.

What was the situation with such an intimate action?

“Aren’t…aren’t you germaphobic?”

Shi Xiaobai had experienced the Infernal Queen’s naked seduction, so he was not one to easily succumb. But for some reason, his heart began beating faster than usual as his face seemed to turn warm.

Even Shi Xiaobai was left flustered when his opponent who he was fighting in a life-and-death battle a moment ago suddenly embraced him in such an intimate manner. He could only say something that did not seem to match the situation. He remembered Speechless had once mentioned that the Hero King was a germaphobe.

“Yea.”

When the girl heard him, she acknowledged lightly before saying calmly, “It’s fine if it’s you.”

Shi Xiaobai was somewhat dumbfounded.

What did he do to become such a special existence to her?

“I do not wish to lose you. When I slashed out that strike, the terror I received from the realization that I would lose you made me understand this point. So, I’m very happy that you are still alive.”

Without blushing or having a racing heart, she said something even lovebirds would find nauseating. Without any embarrassment, she continued, “I have lost the sound of reality once. If I lose it again, I might not have the courage to seek it ever again. So, don’t be quiet. Let me hear your voice. Feel…feel free to say anything.”

Due to the tight embrace and him leaning on her shoulder, he could not see her expression. However, he could imagine that the ice-blue eyes were shimmering with a bright luster. That was because her voice was filled with emotion.

“Yea, let’s have a casual chat.”

Shi Xiaobai gradually calmed down. He had come to a realization that the girl’s intimate actions did not have any ambiguous feelings. To her, he was some special existence. He believed that there must be some unknown story that left a stigma.

He did not need to or wish to find out about the story because the girl who was hugging him was that gentle and frail. She was like an extremely beautiful rainbow bubble that could burst with a light touch.

“What do you want to chat about? This King will accompany you.”

The translucent turtle shell enclosed them in a small world and isolated them from the murderous black beams of light. The boy and girl sat on the white ground. However, the girl was not hugging the boy in an ambiguous manner. Without any reason, their heads rested on each other’s shoulder. Their lips lay beside the soft ear lobes as they whispered to each other. They underwent a series of casual chatting.
