”Madman!”
Dawn cursed secretly before abandoning her attack once again as she retreated to open up a distance.
She obviously would not risk being injured in order to kill Shi Xiaobai. After all, she believed that she was able to easily achieve victory. However, it was another exchange that wasted time, so she still felt vexed.
Previously, she was pondering if Shi Xiaobai's actions were crafty or crazy, and at that moment in time, she was able to come to a conclusion that the black-haired youth in front of her was a madman who did not care for his life.
If she steeled her heart and ignored the danger of being injured to claim his life, he would be pushed to the precipice of extreme danger. However, he did so without any hesitation, not once or twice, but again and again.
”Can he tell that I'm hesitating?”
Dawn could not help but have such a thought.
She could not deny her feelings of trying to see the reflection of herself in that pair of black eyes from a moment ago. But instead of terming it being attracted by the pair of black eyes, it was better to say that she had been attracted by the person, Shi Xiaobai.
It was not romance from a maiden's heart or because of any good feelings for him. To her, this was something impossible.
It was just an admiration of his intelligence. She wanted to converse with him more, so there was a dilemma in killing him.
She appreciated Shi Xiaobai and that was all there was to it. But to a person who had sealed off any superfluous emotions like her, the unfamiliar emotion of appreciation was not simple. It made her want to resist and also could not bear but to cherish it.
Therefore, she felt hesitant.
Could he have seen through me and he knows that I'm hesitating to kill him, so he's employing such a strategy of undaunted fighting?
As Dawn had such thoughts, she saw Shi Xiaobai come close to her once again.
She dodged once again.
As for Shi Xiaobai, he attacked again without any care for his life. As he defended and attacked simultaneously, showcasing the power of dual-wielding and the crazy disregard for his own life perfectly.
”Damn it!”
Dawn began having fretful emotions because she once again chose to retreat. Shi Xiaobai's attacks that showed complete disregard for his own life left her helpless. It definitely had something to do with the hesitation of accepting an internecine outcome, but mostly it was because Shi Xiaobai's strength was not to be underestimated. Be it speed or strength, the youth was slightly better than her. She had already used the augmentation of the God's Blessings, yet she was still at a disadvantage when it came to speed and strength.
”Damn it, if my speed can be faster and my strength stronger, this form of scoundrelly fighting methods would be useless against me, but my speed and strength is indeed being overwhelmed by his. If not for his combat skills still somewhat lacking and his sword cultivation being far inferior to mine, I'll probably be in a more pathetic state.”
”But, he clearly doesn't have any hint of 'God's Blessing' in his aura, so why is he able to overwhelm me in terms of speed and strength?”
”Is his speed and strength purely stemming from the support of his physical strength?”
”No, how can being at the Psionic Mortal Realm give him such terrifying physical strength? He is indeed...not human?”
”He is not a human but the Infernal King. So, I'm the one that's real, right?”
”Ah? What are you thinking? You are of course real. How can you be left running in circles because of a series of lies from that cheat to the point of doubting your existence? Keep your mind focused. No matter how much you hate being reminded of those ice-cold memories, they are real. You are just trying to avoid it.”
”I want to converse with him once more. I want to seriously talk to him once more...Is that the reason for my dilemma? Quickly kill him. He is only a fake existence made up by a series of binary numbers. He is just an empty shell that is injected with a fixed algorithm. Kill him as fast as you can and complete your mission. That has always been how you have worked in the past.”
”What are you hesitating for? Even if you are overwhelmed in speed and strength, or even if he has an extraordinary physique, so what if he is using such scoundrelly ways of fighting? Wouldn't it be easy for you if you wanted to kill him? You are the best at massacres. If you do not have a killing heart, you are just a weak swordswoman. But as long as you have a bit of killing intent, you will become the strongest assassin.”
”What are you hesitating for? Quickly!”
