532 This King is very angry. The consequences will be severe (1/2)
Shi Xiaobai's pupils constricted slightly as he saw a silver-haired girl sitting on the ground as well as a silver-haired woman she was hugging in her arms.
”I see.”
Shi Xiaobai clenched his fists slightly as he strode towards Mu Lengxi.
Mu Lengxi lifted her hands to wipe her tears as she shook her head with vigor.
The seven soldiers stirred as they looked at Tyger Li for instructions.
Tyger Li's expression was ashen as he gradually lifted his hand before slowly lowering it.
In a short instant, Shi Xiaobai was already beside Mu Lengxi.
He squatted down and focused on the girl's puffy red eyes. He asked softly, ”What happened?”
Mu Lengxi shook her head vigorously and opened her mouth without making a sound. However, from the shape of her mouth, she was repeating—”I am fine.”
Shi Xiaobai stared intently into the girl's eyes and remained silent for a moment before he suddenly spoke.
”You lied.”
It was the same two words that sounded categorical. Tyger Li had said the same words just a short moment ago.
Back when Tyger Li said those two words, Mu Lengxi was left close to tears because she felt aggrieved from the lack of trust.
And now, with Shi Xiaobai saying the same two words, Mu Lengxi also felt like crying. She was even more aggrieved but the reason for it was completely different.
It was because when Shi Xiaobai said the two words, his stare felt like a gentle spring breeze. His voice was as soft as a pattering drizzle.
”You have cried and you are injured. How can you be fine?”
Shi Xiaobai frowned slightly as his eyes revealed a look of worry.
The girl felt her heart tense slightly as she felt a lump in her throat. Her eyes seemed to burn as though something was about to collapse.
”Why are you enduring it?”
Shi Xiaobai looked seriously into her eyes.
The girl gaped slightly, hoping to shake her head but her neck did not heed her wishes. Her vision slowly turned blurry.
”This King is here!”
Shi Xiaobai suddenly said loudly, ”This King is here. There's no need for you to endure further! Don't…hold it in anymore!”
Shi Xiaobai's expression looked like he was in pain and his eyes were filled with sadness.
The girl widened her eyes as she suddenly gave a silly smile. Boiling hot tears began rolling down her tear ducts as fresh red blood seeped out the corner of her mouth.
Mu Zhaorong had forcefully withstood the Soul Suppression and fainted from serious injuries.
Mu Lengxi was no different either. She had not fainted but she had suffered severe internal injuries. However, she had been enduring it as long as she could.
She did not want to show her weak side to that cold man ever again.
She had forcefully swallowed the blood in her throat and tried her best to hold in her tears but her tear ducts had collapsed when Shi Xiaobai came. When Shi Xiaobai said the words, 'don't hold it in anymore', she finally could not endure any further.
Why was she so aggrieved?
It was because the boy who she could pour all her sadness to was here.
Mu Lengxi stretched out her other hand to tug at the boy's sleeves. Gently, she buried her head into his embrace as her shoulders trembled. Tears poured out of her eyes in sadness. All the grievances that had accumulated in her chest and throat were finally released!
But even so, she did not utter a cry. Despite it being her most powerful weapon and her greatest grievance, she had protected it heavily. She endured and endured in a stubborn and resolute manner.
Shi Xiaobai sighed lightly and raised his hands to embrace Mu Lengxi fully.
Out of all the girls that he had seen, this was the girl that cried the most.
However, she was also the most determined girl he knew.
Shi Xiaobai pitied her as he silently swore.
One day, he would allow the girl to cry, shout and laugh freely, letting her freely emit her voice to the world.
The boy and girl's embrace with one party consoling and one party crying was a beautiful and innocent scene. It emitted sour feelings of youth and love.
The seven soldiers exchanged looks and were somewhat lost with them immersed in such an ambiguous atmosphere. They looked at Tyger Li and awaited his instructions.
Tyger Li did not speak and instead looked at the boy and girl quietly. His expression remained calm but his gaze turned increasingly solemn.
Shi Xiaobai was only a rookie at the Psionic Mortal Realm. No matter how talented he was, he was of little consequence. However, he was now the talk of the town. Before the buzz dissipated, anything he did would be trending on the search engines.
Even Tyger Li could not wantonly execute the boy unless he was determined to kill Shi Xiaobai and wipe out all evidence.
