516 The Immaculate Black and the Holy White (1/2)
Shi Xiaobai immediately reached out his hand and picked up a large piece of diamond and stuffed it into his mouth. Although Shi Xiaobai had later discovered that the diamond fragments were the medium used by the Level Lords to create an illusion, the Level Lords were now all dead. Furthermore, with his life on the line, so what if they were a hallucination medium? He would even eat shit...Pui! He would rather die than do so!
In short, Shi Xiaobai began to wolf down on the diamonds. They tasted like popcorn and it would have been perfect if there was a cup of iced Coke to match it.
Shi Xiaobai relished the thought and did not feel any depression or despair from being poisoned.
”Woof...”
Suddenly, a pitiful bark was heard. It sounded soft and plaintive, making it resemble a kitten's cry.
Shi Xiaobai turned his head in surprise and noticed the little white dog looking at him with teary eyes as it stared at the diamonds in his hand in a pitiful manner.
The little white dog was a once the Thousand Eye Demon Sovereign, so although it had lost all its memories and had a decrease in its intelligence, its 'greedy' nature had not changed at all. Seeing the diamonds that it fondled intimately on a daily basis being eaten, how could it willingly give them up? How could it not feel the pinch?
Shi Xiaobai sighed. He always detested the act of stealing from people, not to mention stealing from a dog?
Although the dog being owned by him meant that the dog's items were ought to be his, the items were a gift from him. So to 'tyrannously' take it for his own did not match his way of the King.
Shi Xiaobai frowned slightly and stopped eating.
”Woof!”
The little white dog seemed to sense the dilemma Shi Xiaobai was in. Suddenly, it lifted its paws to wipe its eyes like a human. With a whoosh, it flew to the pile of diamonds and picked up a few pieces and flew back to Shi Xiaobai, handing the diamonds over.
”Woof! Woof! Woof!”
The little white dog called out gently like a kitten. Although its eyes seemed unwilling to part with the diamonds, there was more of a resolve and anticipation in them.
Shi Xiaobai immediately felt his heart warm up as he was touched.
”Good boy.”
Shi Xiaobai gently stroked the little white dog and said seriously, ”This King will definitely return it to you a hundredfold!”
”Woof!”
The little white dog nodded excitedly and pushed the diamonds in its paws toward Shi Xiaobai's mouth, urging him to eat the diamonds quickly.
After Shi Xiaobai took the diamonds, he began wolfing down on them!
In less than a minute, all of the diamonds on the ground had been eaten clean.
Shi Xiaobai pulled up his shirt and was immediately somewhat dumbfounded.
Although he had eaten a huge number of diamonds, the amount of energy required was far from enough. His fair skin had only extended from his abdomen to his chest and waist. However, above his collarbone and below his navel, as well as his limbs, they remained black. Less than a third of the 'Holy Tree Sin Poison' had been cleansed!
But where was Shi Xiaobai to find food?
There was no grass or tree bark in the endless snow-white desolate plains he was on. There was also no more food on him that he could eat. He had only repressed the 'Holy Tree Sin Poison' for ten minutes using the Massage Technique of God. Now, with about three minutes having passed, there were only a short seven minutes left. Where was he to find more food?
Shi Xiaobai reached another impasse but he did not give up hope. He began pondering with his brows furrowed.
”Woof!”
Suddenly, the little white dog barked out once again.
Shi Xiaobai looked up and was immediately left dumbfounded.
He saw the little white dog open its mouth and spit out a luminous pearl that was about the size of its body!
It did not only stop there. After spitting out the pearl, the little white dog prostrated itself and in a vomiting pose, a series of crystalline pearls came out like an endless waterfall!
After the little white dog vomited the luminous pearl and the pile of pearls, it gave them a teary glance before gritting its teeth and grabbed the luminous pearl with its paws and flew towards Shi Xiaobai.
”Woof...”
The little white dog placed the luminous pearl in Shi Xiaobai's hand. Its eyes were teary but they looked resolute. It resembled a child who had fallen but had refused to cry.
Shi Xiaobai was momentarily at a loss for words.
He was surprised that the tiny body stored so much 'treasures'. From the looks of it, they were the treasured possessions of the Thousand Eye Demon Sovereign. They were probably treasures that the little white dog cherished innately.
With its intelligence, it probably could not understand the situation. But from its point of view, it believed that its master was 'hungry' and had wanted to eat its diamonds.
But now, seeing its master frown, even though it could not bear to part with its treasures, the little white dog had resolutely handed the diamonds over. It had even vomited the treasured possessions that it cherished greatly.
It was like a three or four-year-old giving up his beloved toys after seeing his parents vexed!
This was such a lovable and sensible little white dog!
”Okay.”
Shi Xiaobai fell silent for a long while before he gave an affirmative response. His brows relaxed as he gave a warm smile. Taking the luminous pearl, he placed it in his mouth.
He did not say thank you nor did he make a promise of returning it a hundredfold. Neither did he reveal a look of reluctance.
He only smiled warmly in a high-spirited manner from the bottom of his heart.
This is This King's pet!
The Pet of a King!
”Woof!”
The little white dog barked in joyful excitement. It was like a child that had received the compliments of his parents.
Shi Xiaobai swallowed the luminous pearl and the pearls on the ground. He did not mind at all that the treasures had been vomited out of the little white dog's body. In fact, the taste was no different from glutinous rice balls. They were sweet and greasy. A gentle bite filled his mouth with the flavored fillings within the glutinous rice balls.
