Chapter 459: To the Ends of the World Together (2/2)

“Lies!”

The girl’s calm voice that was filled with rich hidden emotions, cut Shi Xiaobai off from continuing his lies.

She sighed and stretched out her hand. She gently touched Shi Xiaobai’s face and said softly, “Do you know that surviving in a world alone is more terrifying than death?”

The words that were filled with feelings seemed to conceal a hidden story. It caused Shi Xiaobai to face it in silence.

“Si…”

Suddenly, he felt pain in his cheeks as Shi Xiaobai jolted awake from the melancholic mood.

He saw Dawn pinching his cheeks forcefully and staring at him with her beautiful ice-blue eyes. Her voice had the tensions of a girl, “So, your suggestion of running separately has been rejected! If you want to run, we run together. If you you want to die, we die together! No more nonsense, or I’ll really turn angry!”

Shi Xiaobai felt his heart turn warm as he felt touched. He was momentarily at a loss for words.

After a moment, he sighed and said seriously, “This King never easily gives up, but this time, This King does not know how long he can last as well. You should understand that by running together, This King will only implicate you…”

“Get on!”

Shi Xiaobai’s sentence was interrupted midway.

“What?”

Shi Xiaobai looked up in astonishment and saw Dawn genuflecting with her back facing him. She was using a tone that left no room for doubt to say, “Get on, I’ll carry you.”

The shoulder frame that did not seem very broad and that slender figure accentuated her slim figure. With a firm tone, she said, “Get on, I’ll carry you”. It was like a pair of warm hands were tightly holding Shi Xiaobai’s heart.

Shi Xiaobai fell into a prolonged silence before eventually shaking his head. He said in a resolute manner, “No, using the power of your Sword Soul for a third time would definitely have consumed a great deal of energy. You won’t be able to last long carrying another person while running under such a situation. This will not be an implication but This King dragging you to die together. It’s impossible for This King to do that.”

Dawn gave a gentle smile and said, “Don’t worry, my mental energies have fully recovered. Your tiny bit of weight would not affect me at all. Furthermore, if I carry you, the target is equivalent to being only one person. You would not need to worry about your weakness implicating me. Isn’t his a method that kills two birds with one stone?”

“Lies.”

Shi Xiaobai shook his head resolutely, “To carry a person under such a situation would definitely result in a very restricted situation when it comes to dodging. It will also greatly increase the expenditure of stamina. It will only exhaust you faster. This King definitely can’t do that.”

Dawn wiped the smile off her face slowly as she looked solemnly at Shi Xiaobai for a few seconds. She suddenly raised her hand and said, “If you don’t climb on, I’ll knock you unconscious and run with you on my back.”

The overbearing tone and serious expression indicated that she was absolutely not joking.

Shi Xiaobai was left dumbfounded, but he knew very well that if Dawn wanted to knock him unconscious, he did not have any strength to resist her. Furthermore, resistance would only waste Dawn’s stamina. He obviously would not do so.

However, wasn’t it just making trouble for herself to carry an unconscious person while running in the horde of monsters?

No, she was being serious. She would really do that!

That was…really too unreasonable!

Shi Xiaobai felt his head ache. He could not think of a way to convince the adamant girl despite racking his brains.

At that moment, he suddenly felt his body seemingly turn weightless.

“Hey!?”

Shi Xiaobai was appalled. It turned out that the girl had given up on convincing him. She forcefully carried him.

Shi Xiaobai attempted to resist, but he immediately received a warning stare.

“Oh?”

Dawn stared at him with a sideways glance before she lightly waved her right hand.

Shi Xiaobai was left beyond tears and all he could do was quiet down. Dawn had suddenly become dictatorial because she was telling him that a war of words was useless. She was determined to carry him.

Shi Xiaobai finally gave up on resisting because it was better being conscious than being knocked out. If he was unconscious, there was really nothing he could do.

Rip!

At that moment, there was the sound of clothes tearing. Shi Xiaobai looked to his side and saw that the girl had tugged at her sleeve and torn a piece of fabric from it, exposing a tiny bit of her fair arm.

What was she doing?

After half a minute, the answer was revealed. He saw the girl tear out patches after patches of fabric before twisting them into a rope. After that, she looped the rope around her chest and his back, tying them tightly together.

She tightened the rope with a lot of strength. And even though it caused their bodies to stick closely together, she did not react to it. She did so only to ensure that the rope was tightened so that he would not fall off midway.

However, she was apparently worrying over something else. She suddenly said in a nonchalant tone, “If you forcefully escape the rope, I will immediately turn back and tie you back together.”

Shi Xiaobai was left at a loss whether to laugh or to cry. The girl could even read his mind of him choosing to sacrificing himself during moments of danger. Such a dictatorial method gave him no opportunities to reject her.

But such a high-handed action made Shi Xiaobai even more touched.

Shi Xiaobai hesitated for a long time before sighing gently. He slowly leaned his body down and wrapped his arms around the girl’s white neck. He placed his head on her shoulder and although it was a very intimate posture, it could also save most of her strength.

He was out of options, so he could only choose to believe in her and do his best to recover his strength in the shortest amount of time for her.

However, what was going on was quite a normal cliché. Wasn’t it supposed to be the boy domineeringly carrying the girl?

Why was it completely opposite when it came to them?

The script isn’t right!

Shi Xiaobai had the rare feeling of being bashful and embarrassed.

However, he did not know that the girl that was carrying him was feeling even more bashful.

From the front, to which he could not see, Dawn had her head lowered. She was gently biting her lower lip as she was already blushing red. Light constantly shimmered in her eyes in a brilliant and attractive manner, with a hint of a young girl’s charm in them.

In her bashfulness, there was a hint of sweetness, and the sweetness was intermixed with a hint of agony.

She was having mixed emotions, but she only had one thought.

Protect him!

Even at the cost of my life!

Dawn looked up at the Shell of Black Turtle that was about to shatter at any moment. Outside the shell, there were hordes of monsters that gnashed their teeth and brandished their claws. There were incessant roars that were filled with killing intent.

Even if death were to inundate the entire world, she would definitely open up a path to live on with him!

If this world did not have light, then…

“Hey, Shi Xiaobai, we have to live on. Because we agreed to proceed forward together…”

The girl held onto the boy’s feet with one hand, while her other hand held the holy sword named Lucifer’s Sword. She said gently, “proceed forward together…to the ends of the world!”
