Sunless and company were released from their petrified state. They immediately cast their gazes at Shi Xiaobai's back. They had extremely complicated looks in their eyes. Although they were petrified, they could still hear. Although they could not understand what the Thousand Eye Demon Sovereign's barking meant, they had heard every word Shi Xiaobai said in their hearts.
None of the four were fools. They knew Shi Xiaobai very well, so they knew very well what Shi Xiaobai had done.
Shi Xiaobai had pretended to be cold and heartless, as though he had no regard for life. By calling the four of them "fools", it was clearly not a melodramatic plot to expose his ugly nature, but to deceive the Thousand Eye Demon Sovereign, making it ignore the people Shi Xiaobai cared about the most.
Shi Xiaobai's acting was truly excellent. If people who did not understand Shi Xiaobai saw his expression when he said those words and heard his cold tone, they would definitely think that he was a person with a heart of stone. The Thousand Eye Demon Sovereign clearly did not understand Shi Xiaobai, so it had been deceived.
However, the quartet who knew Shi Xiaobai knew that he was acting. Immediately, they felt their hearts ache for him. A hot-blooded and righteous youth had forced himself to say such cold and heartless words. In order to not reveal any flaws, he had to pretend to be cold-blooded. It was obvious how tormented he was feeling.
Mozzie's eyes were already moist. Sunless' face revealed a rare look of sorrow. Mu Yuesheng bit her lower lip gently, while Kevin clenched his fists tightly. They looked silently at Shi Xiaobai's cold back, feeling their hearts ache and admiration.
In such a perilous situation, he had calmly judged the situation. Through layers upon layers of lies, he had wisely deceived the Thousand Eye Demon Sovereign. He had relied on himself to create hope in a hopeless situation. How could such a youth not make people feel admiration and admiration from the bottom of their hearts?
However, what should Shi Xiaobai, who had pushed the situation to this stage, do in order to completely extricate himself from the Thousand Eye Demon Sovereign?
The quartet was extremely worried, but they could not say a word. They could only turn their backs to the Thousand Eye Demon Sovereign and try their best to hide their sorrow. This was because if they did anything abnormal, it was very likely that they would expose Shi Xiaobai, causing all his hard work to go to waste.
That would not only let down Shi Xiaobai's painstaking efforts, it would also place Shi Xiaobai in a dangerous situation.
At this moment, they could only watch Shi Xiaobai's back with their hearts aching for him. They were praying and cheering for him in their hearts.
"This King will go first. You can wait for thirty seconds, or you can catch up in three. As long as you can catch up to This King, This King will hand over the Holy Sword with both hands."
Shi Xiaobai turned his head and said to the Thousand Eye Demon Sovereign. He did not even look at the quartet from beginning to end, as though he did not care about them at all.
After Shi Xiaobai said that, he immediately used Crab Steps and rushed out at an extremely fast speed. Soon, he disappeared into the woods of Magical Beast Mountain Range.
As the Thousand Eye Demon Sovereign watched Shi Xiaobai's departing back, it used its sense of smell to locate Shi Xiaobai's position. As it sensed the speed at which he was moving, a look of surprise flashed in its eyes. He dared to boast with such speed?
The Thousand Eye Demon Sovereign sneered in its heart. From the looks of it, the arrogant human had underestimated its speed.
Shi Xiaobai's movement technique's speed was indeed top-notch in the Psionic Mortal Realm, but compared to its supersonic speed, it was like a turtle crawling.
The Thousand Eye Demon Sovereign patiently waited for the thirty-second countdown to end. It could not wait to convince Shi Xiaobai to obediently hand over the Holy Sword!
The Thousand Eye Demon Sovereign turned its head to glance at the quartet. After a moment of hesitation, it finally chose to ignore them. It was not bloodthirsty by nature, and if it were to go back on its word now, it would be a great loss for the human to go back on his word in the future.
The thirty seconds quickly passed. The Thousand Eye Demon Sovereign did not wait another second. Its body that was floating in mid-air charged out with a "boom". Its speed was so fast that it could not be seen with the naked eye.
The quartet jumped in fright. They were hoping that the poodle that was floating in mid-air would not be too fast, but they never expected it to be this fast!
This speed was on a completely different level from Shi Xiaobai. It would only take minutes for it to catch up to Shi Xiaobai.
Mozzie said in panic, "What do we do?"
Sunless, who was always silent, said firmly at this moment, "Trust him."
After saying those three words, Sunless suddenly turned around and charged in the opposite direction of Shi Xiaobai. She was heading in the direction of the core region of the Magical Beast Mountain Range!
The other three instantly understood Sunless' intentions. They believed that Shi Xiaobai could hold back the Thousand Eye Demon Sovereign, and they could use this period of time to kill the Titan Ape and clear the 'hell' difficulty stone door. As such, they could accumulate enough points to head to the fourth level!
The trio's eyes immediately turned resolute as they chased after Sunless's departing figure and charged out with all their might!
Sunless still believed that Shi Xiaobai could hold back the Thousand Eye Demon Sovereign despite the Thousand Eye Demon Sovereign's terrifying speed. Having known Shi Xiaobai for a longer period of time, what reason did they have not to believe him?
Even if they could not think of a way for Shi Xiaobai to not be caught by the Thousand Eye Demon Sovereign, they had to choose to believe him!
This was because Shi Xiaobai was such a person, a person that was most trustworthy at critical moments!
…
…
In the periphery of the Magical Beast Mountain Range's periphery, Shi Xiaobai suddenly came to a halt after running at an extremely fast speed. He stretched out his right hand and pulled out an icy-blue sword from his chest!
Immediately following that, Shi Xiaobai kneaded the icy-blue sword into an icy-blue blob of light. Then, he reached his hands into the blob of light!
"Faster, faster!"
Shi Xiaobai's hands began to move at an extremely fast speed in the icy-blue blob of light!
In the forest, Mu Yuesheng, who was running midway, suddenly widened her eyes. She hurriedly covered her mouth as her entire body began to tremble violently.
Mozzie, who had chased up to her, exclaimed, "Sister Yuesheng, what's wrong with you? Why is your face so red? "
Mu Yuesheng's face was as red as an apple. She shook her head at Mozzie and squeezed out a few trembling words, "Nothing … nothing …"
Mu Yuesheng was unable to describe what she was feeling. The sudden feeling of Shi Xiaobai kneading every part of her body out of thin air made her want to find a hole to burrow into from embarrassment.
However, Mu Yuesheng knew that she had to bear with it. Regardless of anything, she had to bear with it. She absolutely could not allow her shyness to interfere with Shi Xiaobai's plans at such a critical moment. Even if she did not know what Shi Xiaobai was planning, she had to fully support him!
"Ah … That won't do. How can I …"
Mu Yuesheng screamed in her heart as she covered her mouth to prevent herself from making a sound. She closed her eyes and could not move at all. She felt that time was passing very slowly.
