Chapter 206: His Freedom was not there

Sunless lowered her head and saw the sword remnant in Shi Xiaobai’s hand. That purplish-gold hilt and silver blade, wasn’t that her purplish-gold silver dragon sword?

But…why was it in such a state?

Sunless quietly came in front of Shi Xiaobai and squatted down. Gently, she pulled out the sword remnant from Shi Xiaobai’s hand and hugged it with a pained look while muttering, “Little Purple…”

Little Purple was likely the name she had given the sword.

Shi Xiaobai looked sideways at the girl’s face. Under her dark golden hair was a fair face. And on her face, there was a pair of blue eyes that had a depressed look. Other than that, there was no other expression. That was all there was to that.

However, Shi Xiaobai could feel the intense woes the girl was feeling in her heart, as though she had lost a loved one.

“Sorry.”

Shi Xiaobai could not help but say that single word to profess his apologies.

The girl turned to glance at Shi Xiaobai. She gaped her mouth slightly but did not speak. Instead, she lowered her head to caress the sword remnant, as her eyes suddenly glazed over.

“You…”

The girl pushed out the sword remnant towards Shi Xiaobai and pointed to its edges. There were teeth marks on the edges.

Shi Xiaobai was taken aback and moments later, he sighed and said, “Sorry, This King was just too hungry.”

From the girl’s body, he could sense her sadness, but not a hint of anger. This made Shi Xiaobai feel extremely sorry. He did not want to deceive the girl unnecessarily, so he took all the blame.

However, what he said didn’t sound very believable. It was quite shocking to hear about a human eating a sword.

The girl fell silent for a moment and suddenly reached out her hand to press on Shi Xiaobai’s chest.

Shi Xiaobai was alarmed, but he could not sense any danger from the girl, so he relaxed.

Moments later, the girl retracted her hand and softly said, “You…are very weak.”

Shi Xiaobai was momentarily shocked. After taking the golden pill, “One Second Shura”, 99% of his Psionic Power had been drained. He had persisted on to say his lie before using Crab Steps to run to this secluded spot. The remaining 1% had long vanished, and he no longer had any Psionic Power left in his body.

Indeed, he was currently very weak, so weak that he was like an old person on his deathbed. However, his vitality had not been reduced. His weakness was just a result of his Psionic Power being drained. He would gradually recover with time.

Just as Shi Xiaobai wanted to explain that he was fine, the girl suddenly pushed the remaining portion of the sword into Shi Xiaobai’s bosom.

Shi Xiaobai was startled and raised his head in confusion.

“Eat.”

The girl’s dreamy voice sounded like it came beyond the heavens. Putting down the sword remnant, she immediately stood up and turned around. With a brisk pace, she walked towards the bend.

The girl’s speed was extremely fast, and in a blink of an eye, she had reached the bend. However, her footsteps stumbled slightly as she looked reluctantly back at the sword remnant in Shi Xiaobai’s bosom, but immediately she bit her lips and disappeared from the secluded alley.

Shi Xiaobai reacted moments later, as a wry smile suffused across his lips.

From the girl’s look of grief, this sword was clearly very important to her. However, despite the culprit sitting in front of her, she had not blamed him, nor did she show any emotive signs of grumbling. Instead, she had given him the sword remnant which was extremely important to her for “consumption” after discovering his extremely weak state.

And they were only strangers.

Shi Xiaobai reached out his hand to grasp the purplish-gold hilt and sighed lightly.

A golden beam flashed as the loli appeared. With a sorry look, she said, “Big Brother…”

Shi Xiaobai immediately consoled her, “This matter is not your fault. It’s all This King’s fault.”

The loli hesitated for a moment and suddenly took a step forward. Holding Shi Xiaobai’s hand, her tiny finger tapped onto his palm. Suddenly, a dazzling golden beam bloomed from her slightly cold fingertip, like a golden lotus.

The golden lotus lasted for a few moments before its glow dissipated. In Shi Xiaobai’s palm, a small golden pearl appeared.

Shi Xiaobai asked in wonderment, “This is?”
