Before the trials, Speechless had never seen Sunless in person. However, towards this girl who had the reputation of being the number one sword genius of the younger generation and was known as a sword fanatic, he could not help but be curious even though he was indifferent to the outside world and scoffed at geniuses his age. He had even specially looked at the contestant information prepared by the organization before entering the Nine Revolutions Transcendental Tower.
Towards Sunless, who was ranked third on the official forecast, the organization had obviously spent a lot of time describing her in the information.
Her background, when she became the old God of Swords' disciple, which competition she had participated in, at what age she gained insights into Sword Intent and Sword Truth. These were all superficial information that could be easily found. However, what interested Speechless the most was the organization's subjective description of Sunless.
The information was written as such —
"Sunless' obsession with the way of the sword is born from her obsession with swordsmanship. She can be said to be a sword fanatic that is rarely seen in a hundred years. Although she is a sword fanatic, she is not an idiot. Her daily actions are no different from ordinary people. However, she is less concerned about things other than swords. To her, the world is formed by swords and other things other than swords. But strangely, despite having such an inhuman perception, her emotional intelligence is not low. She almost never takes the initiative to converse with others, but if her family or friends take the initiative to strike up a conversation with her, she will ignore 90% of the time. However, there will still be 10% of the time where she will give an extremely brief and general answer. These answers are often worth pondering over. Sunless does not hate the world other than swords, but she does not have any thoughts of taking the initiative to interact with it. Her intelligence and emotional intelligence are not low, so she is different from ordinary idiot geniuses. She is cold, but she does not belittle others. From this, it can be inferred that although she is only in her teens, her mind is very likely more mature than most adults. However, her maturity is expressed in her understanding of the world. She values the sword, but she does not belittle things other than the sword. Other than the sword, there is probably no other existence in this world that can shake her. Here, it can be boldly assumed that even when faced with the difficult choice of having only one of her elder brother or father survive, she would still calmly make the most rational decision. "
This paragraph of information left a deep impression on Speechless. Especially the bold hypothesis made at the end of the information left him a little surprised. Was it really possible for a teenage girl to calmly choose the life and death of her loved ones?
The description seemed to be filled with contradictions, but it was sufficient to outline the image of a sword fanatic who had a demonic mind and was obsessed with swords. It was still fresh in Speechless' mind.
But at that moment, seeing Sunless in person and witnessing the storm-like scene, Speechless suspected that he had seen fake information.
Didn't they say that her mind was mature and nothing other than the sword could shake her?
Sunless looked like someone who had something important snatched away. In order to snatch it back, she was willing to disregard everything. She looked somewhat crazy.
Speechless could not help but say, "Hey, is this really Sunless Ye? Why is it completely different from the rumors? "Wu Zhangkong sighed with astonishment.
Speechless was obviously not the only one who had such doubts, but clearly, someone knew the truth.
"The power of love."
Mu Yuesheng said softly before using 'Lightning Flashstep' to charge towards the intense battle. Upon seeing Sunless' abnormal state, she also snapped out of her disbelief that 'Shi Xiaobai had been killed'. She realized that if she wanted to know the truth, she needed to quickly defeat the Level Lord in front of her.
The others also reacted. They naturally would not watch the battle by the sidelines. Even if the opponent was a Level Lord, it was impossible for them to shrink back. The few of them looked each other in the eye and began to split up. They rushed towards Field Marshal Awesomo's location.
Only a dumbfounded Speechless and Pulp Farmer, who had no choice but to support Speechless, were left behind.
Speechless turned to look at Pulp Farmer and said with a chuckle, "Did I hear wrong? Yuesheng said … the power of love?"
Pulp Farmer looked at Speechless' left chest. Although it was slowly healing, there was still a wound the size of half a fist. He helplessly gave up the urge to join the battle. With the others gone, the responsibility of protecting the heavily injured Speechless naturally fell on him.
Towards Speechless' question, Pulp Farmer hesitated for a moment before answering, "You didn't hear wrong. Although it's hard to believe, that once the purest sword fanatic has probably become a young girl in the prime of her youth who is blinded by love. Sunless's character is different from ordinary people. She won't be easily moved, but once she is, she will be crazier than anyone else. In the beginning, she only had eyes for swords. Her obsession with swords is known by the entire country. But now, she has an additional Shi Xiaobai in her eyes. "
Speechless was taken aback as he clicked his tongue and said, "Did that fellow Shi Xiaobai commit a romantic calamity? How strange. That fellow looks average and has an odd character. Even if his talent is not bad, his strength is passable, and he has a little bit of charisma, it shouldn't be to the extent of … "
Speechless could not help but feel mixed emotions. According to his observations, his two sisters had a certain level of affection for Shi Xiaobai. Mu Yuesheng's affection was relatively shallow. It was not the affection between a man and a woman, but more of gratitude and respect. The possibility of it turning into 'liking' was relatively low. However, his other sister, Mu Lengxi's situation was odd. The way she looked at Shi Xiaobai was like an innocent girl who had just experienced the awakening of love.
If he included Sunless, who disregarded everything, Dawn, whose obsession with massacres had been shaken, as well as his girlfriend whose existence was unknown, just from meeting Shi Xiaobai twice, he knew that there were already five girls who had feelings for Shi Xiaobai or more!
Furthermore, this was very likely just the tip of the iceberg!
Speechless, who had never lacked suitors from a young age, could not help but find it unbelievable. That was because the girls who had feelings for Shi Xiaobai were not ordinary girls.
Speechless muttered softly, "Indeed, that fellow might look harmless on the surface, but he's actually an expert in love who takes every step with caution …"
Pulp Farmer frowned slightly and said, "Forgive me for being unable to agree with what you said. Although I haven't known Shi Xiaobai for long, I can tell that Shi Xiaobai is a person who is the same on the outside and inside. At times, that fellow is as wise as a demon that has lived for thousands of years. At other times, he is as hot-blooded as a simple-minded fool. But what's rare is that both sides of this contradiction are real. They come from the bottom of his heart. He is smarter than anyone else, so the world he sees is filled with darkness more than anyone else. However, his eyes are always filled with light. Despite seeing through evil, he still believes in and insists on being kind. That is what makes him adorable. And to Sunless, who can similarly see through the world but chooses to ignore it, Shi Xiaobai is an existence that she cannot achieve. He is an existence that she yearns for. Her liking him is not a coincidence or a design, but an inevitable outcome. "
Speechless was stunned for a moment as he gave Pulp Farmer a serious glance. Moments later, he grinned and said, "I thought you were a boorish man, but I never expected you to be so observant. You are so meticulous that you can see the essence of so many things ordinary people cannot see. It looks like you 'like' Shi Xiaobai and Sunless very much. However, this' like 'is probably different, right? However, deep down in your heart, you believe that this is an inevitable outcome, so you chose to give up from the beginning. "
Pulp Farmer's frown immediately turned deeper as his expression turned slightly ugly. He repressed his anger and said in a deep voice, "It's unknown if Shi Xiaobai is dead or alive. Sunless and company are fighting the Level Lord to the death, yet you still have the mood to crack such a senseless joke?"
Speechless pricked up his eyebrows slightly and said with a chuckle, "Don't worry. That fellow, Shi Xiaobai, is still alive. Furthermore, he won't die. It's impossible for him to die. He must be jumping around somewhere, shouting 'This King, This King'."
Pulp Farmer said angrily, "What right do you have to make such an irresponsible conclusion?"
Speechless looked into Pulp Farmer's eyes with a calm gaze and said seriously, "Because … he is Shi Xiaobai."
Pulp Farmer was immediately stunned.
Speechless suddenly took a step forward and broke away from Pulp Farmer's support. His gaze looked into the intense battle in the distance and he slowly raised his right hand to the wound on his left chest that was the size of half a fist.
"However, you are right. Now is indeed not the time to joke around. It's best this farce ends as soon as possible."
Speechless' voice had a leisurely and teasing tone to it, but the action he did with his hand left Pulp Farmer dumbfounded.
He saw Speechless slowly reach his right hand into the hole on his left chest and suddenly grab the mangled flesh that was healing. He began pressing down forcefully!
Such a pressing was not a form of self-abuse, but a special technique that could stimulate the body's functions to speed up the healing of wounds. However, what was being treated in such a manner was the softest and weakest flesh. The flesh was filled with fine nerves, so it was obvious how intense the pain was when it was being pressed down with such force.
"Are you mad!?"
Pulp Farmer roared and took a step forward to reach out his hand to stop him. However, when he took a step forward, he saw Speechless' side profile. He was stunned in his spot.
That ordinary-looking face had nothing but calmness. Despite suffering from intense pain, he did not frown at all. He did not sweat a drop of cold sweat. He was so calm that it was as though the flesh that was being ravaged did not belong to his body.
Why?
"Why can you be so calm?"
"Because, it doesn't hurt at all."
The calm answer did not sound like he was putting on a brave front. It was so calm that Pulp Farmer felt like he had been struck by lightning. He stood rooted to his spot as his body began to tremble slightly.
Speechless turned his head slightly as a smile suffused across his lips. He said, "Go, join the battle. This Emperor does not need any guards. Pulp Farmer, you are a pretty good fellow. I'll temporarily leave my two sisters to you. Go protect them and help This Emperor buy a little time. "
"When This Emperor's wounds recover, This Emperor will tear them all apart for you to see, no matter how many schemes that stupid ox has!"
Pulp Farmer fell into a daze for a moment.
Finally, he gently and slowly nodded his head, but he was extremely serious.
