331 True demon (1/2)

Chapter 331: True demon

After Kali raged, the corruptive power that sourced from ‘rage’ allowed her to suddenly have the power to break through the God Slaughtering Formation. However, it had turned her from a holy pixie into a fallen pixie.

And at this moment in time, Shi Xiaobai had used his superpower, ‘Power Siphoning’, to forcefully snatch the corruptive power from Kali. As a result, this power was also sucked into his body.

As such, Kali’s hair returned to the purple color she loved. With the corruptive power disappearing completely, she had transformed back into a holy pixie.

As for Shi Xiaobai, his hair had become the silverish-white color that was an emblem of fallen pixies.

The silver color was shiny, as though beautiful flowing clouds or water.

The silver hair suddenly added a sinister handsomeness to the delicate-looking Shi Xiaobai.

If this were purely a result of dyeing his hair, it would undoubtedly make him look suave.

However, this was not the dyeing of hair, but corruption.

The corruption was not something simple. It was different from the corruption of one’s character, personality or even moral integrity.

This was a the corruption of a species, a corruption of the soul. It could even be a corruption in reincarnation.

Kali was acutely aware of the terror of corruption. The corruption was irreversible and unerasable. It would accompany him for life and even in the afterlife. It was a brand of sin that would be with him for all eternity.

After Kali saw Shi Xiaobai’s hair turning silver, she immediately figured out what had happened. She understood why Shi Xiaobai had suddenly asked to ‘borrow’ her powers and why there was such an ambiguous posture, as for the reason why Shi Xiaobai had looked differently at her from before.

It was because he knew. He knew of her sacrifice for him. He knew about matters regarding corruption. Therefore, he had forsaken his future filled with light and had taken the initiative to embrace the darkness that should not belong to him.

This was an ending which had no one sacrificed other than Shi Xiaobai himself.

“No, don’t do it. Quickly return it!”

Tears streamed down her cheeks. Kali began crying like a child. She got up and pressed Shi Xiaobai beneath her. She wailed for Shi Xiaobai to return the corruptive power.

Shi Xiaobai smiled in silence. He gently hugged Kali’s waist. He was very satisfied with the ending. Of course, power that was siphoned could not be returned. Even if he could return it, he would not have returned even one ounce of it.

“Return it, return it!”

Kali began pounding on Shi Xiaobai’s chest. She felt her heart aching, and her eyes were sore. It was as if there was a hard rock stuck in her throat.

Shi Xiaobai’s consciousness gradually went into a blur as he opened his mouth. A husky voice that sounded like it came from the abyss squeezed out of his vocal cords.

“Why…is This King…so angry… Is this anger? This anger…how can you endure it… Why can’t This King…control it any further?”

Shi Xiaobai struggled to speak in a staccato manner. Kali was jolted from his words and looked down at him. Shi Xiaobai’s eyes were already red.

It was a scarlet like blood, and also the crimson color of burning flames.

“Ah…”

Shi Xiaobai opened his mouth slightly, as tearing voice ripped out his throat like a violent wind. His body began to convulse.

“No, you can’t fall. Try your best to remain awake. Do not let your anger deprive you of your will. Shi Xiaobai! Please!”

Kali’s pale face was covered in tears. She hugged Shi Xiaobai tightly like a helpless child.

At this moment in time, a golden beam of light bloomed from the back of Shi Xiaobai’s right hand. A loli wearing a snow-white dress appeared beside the two.

The loli hurriedly said, “Do you want to let Shi Xiaobai die from pent up anger? Let him vent it!”

Kali was anxious. Her grief and remorse had made her lose her sense of propriety, but she knew that the loli was the sword spirit of the holy sword in Shi Xiaobai’s right hand. When she heard the loli say those words, she immediately faltered.

Vent?

The loli appeared very anxious as well. Therefore, without waiting for the panicking Kali to figure out the details, she said in a hurry, “With Shi Xiaobai’s present strength, there is no way he can withstand the corruptive power. Therefore, before he becomes a member of the fallen race, his body would collapse from the corruptive power. He is now in dire need to vent the excess corruptive power, do you understand? The corruptive power he has taken is ‘anger’, therefore, Shi Xiaobai is about to ‘explode in anger’. You must think of a way for him to vent all the anger in his heart!”

When Kali heard this, she immediately realized what was happening. She was feeling pain for Shi Xiaobai’s transformation into a member of the fallen race, but she had missed the point that Shi Xiaobai’s body could not withstand the corruptive power!

The present Shi Xiaobai was filled with surging energies in his body. Anger was dominating over his reason, and he was in need to vent it out!

“If you will become a demon king, I’ll become a demonic girl to accompany you by your side.”

Kali hugged Shi Xiaobai tightly and said softly, “Vent it out. Vent out all your anger as much as you want.”

In the northernmost area of Monster Fairyland in the sixth level of the Nine Revolutions Transcendental Tower, there was a gigantic palace located in the midst of a vast plain.

At this moment, there were all sorts of monsters gathered densely on the plains. Countless monsters were quiet and dormant, as though they were waiting for something. It was a stern and austere environment.

And in the palace surrounded by the monsters, a dual-bladed demon was sitting on a magnificent throne. It looked panicked while it spoke to an unknown existence.

“Your Magnificence, are you planning on giving up on me?”

“Or are you saying that you have turned a blind eye to the existence of the virus?”

“Are you planning on abandoning the land of the trials, or are you giving up your valuable dignity.”

“No, why aren’t you sending more forces to eliminate the pixie? There’s still time. Lend your power to me. Just a bit will do, and I’ll be able to kill the pixie that sealed herself.”

The dual-blade demon had a hideous expression. It was hissing as it spoke to itself in the palace.
