Dawn's eyes turned slightly dazed. Shi Xiaobai's explanation was reasonable, but it was too simple. How could a lie that could deceive her be that simple?
With this thought in mind, Dawn immediately thought of a critical problem. She hesitated for a moment and bit her lower lip. She said, "Then, how do you explain the red mole under my right armpit?"
Shi Xiaobai said, "That is just a lie that is darkest under the lamp. Of course, This King has never seen your right armpit, but have you ever seriously observed your right armpit? Normal people would not do that, so you did not know if there was a red mole under your right armpit. Furthermore, it was impossible for you to take off your clothes and raise your right arm in front of everyone's eyes to verify if there was a red mole under your armpit. And every piece of information This King had previously said matched the facts you knew. You would naturally subconsciously believe that This King had said another fact, believing that This King had really observed your right armpit. At the same time, you would panic from being peeped at, causing you to lose your calmest thoughts. "
When Shi Xiaobai said this, he could not help but laugh. He had learned this method on the spot because he had been deceived by the Infernal Queen using this method not long ago. If he fell for a lie with his intelligence, there was no reason for Dawn to be spared.
Shi Xiaobai noticed that Dawn's eyes were slightly glazed over as he said with a chuckle, "Do you feel disappointed that the riddle has been revealed? Do you find the answer too simple and the means too ordinary? After losing the mystery wrapped around it, it becomes extremely boring? "
Typically, when the audience did not know the trick behind a complicated magic trick, they would find it mysterious and lofty. However, when the trick was revealed, they would discover that the principle behind it was actually very simple. They would then feel that magic tricks were actually so childish and boring.
Dawn's eyes were dazed. She had indeed developed such a feeling.
But, is this feeling really correct?
Was that complicated magic trick really childish and boring?
Was the lie that he used to deceive her really that ordinary?
Dawn fell silent as she pondered. Her ice-blue eyes suddenly had a strange glint as she slowly looked up at Shi Xiaobai. An undetectable glint flickered in her eyes.
"Simple? You are being too humble. "
For the first time, a faint smile suffused across her bright and alluring lips without lipstick. Dawn said with a smile, "Excessive modesty is more hateful than arrogant pride. What you said sounds simple, but it's not that easy to do. The key lies in the absurd confession that you said at the beginning. You used ten lifetimes of lies to perfectly explain that confession, and it laid the perfect foundation for the lies that followed. Connecting everything with a lie, this is not something that a normal scheming teenager can think of. "
"You resolutely used a fake method to solve the problem. Once you start to doubt your hypothesis, all your previous efforts will go to waste. However, you are able to firm your belief. You are not gambling, but playing a game. Although you are a gambler, you firmly believe that you will win. Your psychological quality surpasses that of ordinary people."
"You skillfully used many psychological methods. The principle behind a lie is very simple, but how you use it is the key. And be it the way you used it or the time you used it, it was nearly perfect. This is not something that can be done by following a script."
"You advanced step by step, approaching step by step. Unknowingly, you weaved a spider web of lies and then delivered a fatal blow at the most appropriate moment. No girl can remain calm when they know that they have been peeped on and that their bodies have been seen naked. Even a private spot like their armpits has been peeped at. Similarly, I can't do it. You realized such a simple principle and used it perfectly. Furthermore, it resonated with the lie of ten lifetimes. The two lies corroborated each other. A negative is a positive, and just like that, it became the truth. And all of this stemmed from that confession. The first move you made was the best foundation for the final move. To think so far ahead and have such meticulous logic, you are very impressive. "
"For you to be able to deceive me, it was not a coincidence or luck, but because you are wise and farsighted."
Shi Xiaobai was stunned for a moment when he heard this. He never expected to be praised in such a manner. For some baffling reason, he felt somewhat embarrassed. He could not help but scratch his head and said with a silly smile, "You flatter me. To be able to analyze This King's train of thought so clearly and thoroughly in such a short period of time, you are also very impressive."
When the thirty thousand viewers heard this dialogue, other than their minds going blank, they did not have any other thoughts. They only felt that their intelligence might be fake, but when they heard this, they could not help but ridicule in their minds — Such commercial flattery sure is nourishing!
The faint smile on the girl's face was like a flash in the pan, quickly disappearing without a trace. Her eyes became calm again as she said, "I'll ask you one last time. Did you really spend so much effort just to verify whether or not I'm a woman disguised as a man?"
When Shi Xiaobai heard this, he hesitated for a moment before saying with a nod, "That's because there will definitely be a battle to the death between you and me. Either you die or This King dies, This King will completely lose the chance to verify it. This King does not want to leave behind any regrets or doubts. This point is something that I believe you, who has been suppressing your killing intent, can understand."
Shi Xiaobai sighed in his heart. He had said that he would not lie, but at this moment, he had no choice but to say a lie. He had done so because of the Absolute Choice. It was the Absolute Choice that forced him to do such a painful thing.
No matter how he said the confession, it would be too embarrassing to say it to anyone.
However, if he could weave this confession into a perfect lie, a conspiracy with a pure purpose, then he could not only verify the conjecture in his heart, but he could also make an awkward situation seem grand. He could kill two birds with one stone, so why not?
This was the fifth path that Shi Xiaobai had chosen. He had changed his first impression of the 'Path of Retard' to the 'Path of Wisdom'.
Dawn believed Shi Xiaobai's explanation and did not probe further. She slowly took a step forward and said, "Then, in the end, please tell me your name."
Shi Xiaobai was slightly taken aback as he suddenly felt a strange sense of accomplishment. He grinned and said his name, "This King's name is Shi Xiaobai!"
"Shi Xiaobai."
Dawn repeated it softly and looked deeply into Shi Xiaobai's eyes. Her red lips parted slightly as she slowly said a voice that seemed to come from beyond the Heavens.
"Farewell forever, Shi Xiaobai."
The heavenly murmur reverberated in the sky.
The girl's figure had already transformed into a beam of light as she charged at Shi Xiaobai. The Lucifer's Sword in her hand shimmered with resplendent golden light.
It was as though the first rays of dawn had pierced through the dark night.

(PS: You might not believe it, but the Absolute Choice was written by me on a whim. I did not consider the consequences before writing it. Then, over the past few days, I racked my brains, trying to use a plot that unfolded in a godly manner to connect this godly twist, so that this Absolute Choice that looked like a prank would have a real meaning. I do not know how many brain cells I have lost over the past few days. Finally, after much thought, I came up with this extremely complicated plot that can be explained. If you read it at a cursory glance, you will find it very lousy, but if you read it seriously and with some thought in mind, you will likely find it more interesting. Readers who like to read animes have probably guessed which anime character Dawn's setting came from. The stated setting is very similar. It's a result of feelings, but her personality and fate are definitely different. The image of Dawn's feminine form in Shi Xiaobai's mind is actually the cover of this book. I spent eight chapters, a total of 18,000 words to write this plot. I hope that everyone will not find me long-winded or criticize me for being lousy. I'm just trying my best to express my thoughts clearly. The following plot will definitely not disappoint everyone. I will also speed up my update speed. By the way, do you think the previous format of 10,000 words per chapter or the current format of 2,000 words per chapter is better?)
