486 Time for this game of chess to come to an end (1/2)

The group began joking about the 'terrible turn of events' after Shi Xiaobai fell unconscious.

Soon, Pulp Farmer made an excuse to leave, to which Feng Yuanlin parroted so as to leave with him.

They had intruded by rushing into the room mainly because they were worried about Shi Xiaobai as well as to confirm if Shi Xiaobai remembered if he had accidentally killed Speechless. Now, with Shi Xiaobai completely fine and clueless about what had happened after he fell unconscious, there was naturally no reason for them to 'risk' staying behind.

After Pulp Farmer and Feng Yuanlin left, Shi Xiaobai lowered his head to ponder over Dawn. Although the guess that they were on the same world line was better than the outcome from before, it still could not satisfy him. The 'silly notion' that he could still meet up with her again made him begin to rack his brains.

Sunless was a bit mindful of how Shi Xiaobai would view the matter of 'mouth-to-mouth resuscitation' that Feng Yuanlin came up with. But the typically nonvocal her did not know how she should probe. Therefore, she could only become the usual silent beauty.

The Infernal Queen languidly lazed on the sofa as she shook her beautiful and exquisite leg that seemed to have a luster like beautiful white jade. A coquettish smile hung on her lips as her eyes held a teasing hint as though she was planning something.

The room immediately turned silent once again.

”Rumble...”

Suddenly, a strange sound groaned.

Shi Xiaobai immediately blushed because his stomach had growled. After sleeping for three days, the energy he had received from eating the Infernal King's sword had basically been digested. As a result, he had the infinite appetite of the Power of Taotie reappearing, giving him the innate feeling of hunger.

Sunless looked up at Shi Xiaobai and immediately, a look of realization flashed in her eyes after a moment of surprise. She thought to herself that it was true that she was bad at caring for others. She had failed to realize that someone who had been unconscious for three days would be hungry after he woke up. If it were a more considerate girl, she would definitely have realized this and prepared in advanced.

”I'll get food.”

Sunless hurriedly stood up and walked out the door.

Shi Xiaobai gaped and wanted to tell Sunless not to bother. He had lots of food everywhere around him. But as he thought that the food around him were actually candles or other furniture, it would undoubtedly make Sunless worry for him even though candles were not much different from fried chicken to him. Therefore, he could only swallow his words.

With Sunless leaving, it immediately left Shi Xiaobai and the Infernal Queen remaining in the room.

Shi Xiaobai turned his head to glance at the Infernal Queen. Before the battle royale between the three kings, he had once spent ten days with the Infernal Queen in the chamber they were in, alone. Although they were playing board games most of the time, the Infernal Queen had never ceased using a coquettish attitude to attempt to seduce him.

Didn't she seem a little different today?

The Infernal Queen was half-slumped on the sofa. The garments she was wearing could hardly conceal her figure. Her wanton and slothful posture was filled with a fascinating charm. However, the smile on her face was different from the seductive smile from before. It had more of a teasing and jesting vibe.

She locked eyes with Shi Xiaobai, narrowing them into a beaming smile without saying a word.

Shi Xiaobai thought for a moment before choosing not to make conversation. He hesitated for a moment and turned his head. He got off the bed and quickly walked toward the Infernal King's study desk.

He was hungry. Very hungry. The appetite of Tao Tie could no longer wait.

Before Sunless brings in food, it's best to find something to eat first.

Shi Xiaobai remembered that he had found the Celestial Jade that was of the same grade as the Transcendent fruit and the Infernal King's sword in the Infernal King's desk. Only energy at the level of the Celestial Jade could curb his hunger.

Shi Xiaobai began rummaging through the Infernal King's drawers and he would occasionally find some items that were like jade. However, they were all ordinary items. The amount of energy they contained was only slightly higher than rocks. However, Shi Xiaobai was too hungry to be picky, so he began eating them.

The Infernal Queen was accustomed to seeing the ridiculous scene of Shi Xiaobai eating anything. She silently watched him with a faint smile. A strange glint was hidden in her eyes as though she was planning something.

”There is one thing that I'm not sure if Darling still remembers?”

Suddenly, the Infernal Queen broke the silence.
