The travel-worn boy was naturally Shi Xiaobai who had left the Nine Revolutions Transcendental Tower at dusk.
He had evaded the surrounding crowd and found an opportunity to 'grab' a woman in red who happened to walk by. He asked her 'where is Speechless Li's house' but never expected that not only did she not answer him, she had instead recognized him and began clinging on to him, asking all sorts of questions.
Only then did Shi Xiaobai know that he had become famous and he was now popular throughout the country.
There were even artists with excellent technique that had drawn his portrait from the descriptions of the rookies that had seen him. The portrait had reached a 99% resemblance. Furthermore, the woman in red had clearly paid attention to the matter. She had recognized Shi Xiaobai at a glance and like a fan seeing a superstar, she pestered Shi Xiaobai with all sorts of questions.
These questions were, in fact, the ones that every citizen of China was most concerned about.
For example, how did Shi Xiaobai conquer the eight Level Lords? Did he possess the strength to defeat entities at the late-stage Psionic Might Realm despite being at the Psionic Mortal Realm?
Another example would be what sort of trial was the eighth level. Why did Overlord Ji Feng and company claim that no human could clear the eighth level, yet Shi Xiaobai had managed to clear it?
Lastly, what sort of astounding secret or ancient heritage was hidden in the ninth level? Whatever land of trials was always complemented with a rich prize at the end. What sort of opportunities did Shi Xiaobai gain at the ninth level of the Nine Revolutions Transcendental Tower?
Shi Xiaobai was not astonished that he had become popular throughout the country and instead took it for granted. He did not find it irritating to be pestered by his fans and instead was rather patient.
However, the questions the woman in red posed left Shi Xiaobai with a headache. He had no idea how he could answer her.
Other than conquering the Thousand Eye Demon Sovereign with the Master Conquest Ball, the other seven Level Lords were killed by him in his 'rage' when he had lost all reason. He had no idea how he had done it as well, so how could he answer them?
The eighth level involved the history of the Transcendental World based on what the Infernal Queen narrated. It mentioned of humanity invading and chasing the Transcendents out of the Transcendental World before renaming the Transcendental World to the world of the humans. Humans in the story were the 'evil' faction and if he said it, no one from China would believe him. It would be quite impressive if he was not deemed a 'species traitor'.
As for the 'opportunity' in the ninth level? It was impossible for Shi Xiaobai to tell others that he had been forced to receive the bloodline of another species in the ninth level, right? That his appearance may be human, but he had, in fact, half his bloodline being that of a green-skinned dwarf.
In summary, Shi Xiaobai had no way to give a direct response.
Thankfully, Shi Xiaobai was also very good at fabricating stories. Using his 'King's Point of View', he restructured and embellished the story which managed to conceal the secrets that could not be told while also making the story extremely exciting with all sorts of vicissitudes. It left the woman in red exclaiming from time to time as her face flushed red. Her mouth gaped slightly as her eyes sparkled like crystal, as though water would drip out at any time.
Shi Xiaobai noticed that the look in her eyes wasn't right, so he hurriedly ended the story before asking for Speechless Li's address once again. She was unwilling to part with him but she did not cling on further. After asking to have a photo together with Shi Xiaobai, she told him the answer.
Speechless Li and the Li family was rather famous in China. Furthermore, they were known by everyone in Shanghai.
Shi Xiaobai hurriedly rushed to the address the woman in red had told him before realizing that there was a huge mistake.
The woman in red had given him an address of where the Li family residence was. And according to the Li family's old steward, Speechless Li's 'corpse' was in 'Crown Prince Manor'.
Crown Prince Manor and the Li family residence were separated apart, with one at the southeastern corner of Shanghai, while the other was in the northwestern corner. They were separated by the entire Shanghai metropolitan area.
Shi Xiaobai helplessly rushed to Crown Prince Manor but by the time he reached the southeastern suburbs, it was already half past nine. The sky was dark and the street lights illuminated the street. The houses were densely arranged like a plantation of flowers. Shi Xiaobai was momentarily lost and all he knew was Crown Prince Manor's address but not the exact location.
Shi Xiaobai could only continue using his 'Direction-asking Grand Skill' but there were no passers-by in the night. Finally, when he encountered a girl who was walking carefully in the night, he rushed forward to grab her but he was immediately mistaken as a pervert. She shouted 'molest' and screamed 'save me' and had even used something akin to 'Nine Yin White Bone Claws' to scratch at Shi Xiaobai.
After a few moments of trouble, the girl realized she was not being 'violated' and finally calmed down. And when she discerned Shi Xiaobai's looks from the street lights, she immediately recognized him to be the boy genius who had just reached the top of the search rankings today. Immediately, her eyes seemed to be replaced with red hearts as she rushed forward to cling on to him and began 'molesting' Shi Xiaobai.
Shi Xiaobai felt his scalp tingle and immense pressure. After a great deal of effort, he had managed to obtain Crown Prince Manor's location from the girl's mouth. Finally, he sent the girl home as she had to risk walking alone at night because she had missed the tram as a result of some incident. Having finally extricated himself, he suddenly realized that being overly famous was not necessarily a good thing.
However, his face was indeed useful. The Li family's old steward had recognized him and had told him of Speechless Li's location. The guards in front of Crown Prince Manor recognized him and allowed him passage. Furthermore, they had brought him right in front of Speechless Li's memorial hall.
Everyone in China knew that Shi Xiaobai and Speechless Li had entered the Nine Revolutions Transcendental Tower together. One had succeeded while one had died. The number one boy in China had changed overnight.
However, there were six people who knew that even if it were known, Shi Xiaobai could not be blamed for Speechless's death.
Shi Xiaobai drew in a deep breath in front of the memorial hall. He wanted to confirm Speechless's death and ask about the process before admitting his faults and apologize to Speechless's loved ones.
He had no intention of killing Speechless but the completion of the Absolute Choice had proved that Speechless Li had indeed died under his hands.
He would not avoid the responsibility that he had to bear.
After mentally preparing himself, Shi Xiaobai pushed the door and entered.
…
"Sorry for disturbing. This King is here to look for Speechless Li."
Shi Xiaobai was feeling mixed emotions. He said those words upon seeing seven soldiers in military uniform blocking the door.
The seven soldiers looked at each other and naturally recognized the boy who was the talk of the town. His looks and his most striking feature—addressing himself as This King perfectly matched the information circulating on the web!
Tyger Li also recognized Shi Xiaobai. As a country's premier, he was busy with government work and would not be concerned with an astounding genius or person popular on the web that would appear from time to time. However, in the report regarding Speechless Li's death, nearly every page had mentioned Shi Xiaobai, posing the view that 'China's number one boy had changed'. As such, it was impossible for Tyger Li to not know him.
He did not have a good impression of Shi Xiaobai because of the report and having seen Shi Xiaobai, he was more irritated.
Shi Xiaobai came at an inopportune time!
Tyger Li kept the truth serum and said with a deep voice, "It's already late. Come back tomorrow."
Shi Xiaobai turned to look at Tyger Li. As Mu Lengxi was sitting on the ground and she was just behind the seven soldiers, Shi Xiaobai was unable to see her from his angle.
Mu Lengxi could not see Shi Xiaobai either but when she heard his voice, she could not help but be overwhelmed with tears. However, she did not emit a sound at all. Neither did she stand up. All she did was hug her unconscious mother and sat there quietly and sadly.
Wasn't everything she was doing in order to protect Shi Xiaobai? How could she embroil him at that moment in time?
This was her battle alone.
Go back, Brother Xiaobai.
Mu Lengxi tenderly prayed in her heart.
"Go back, you are not welcomed here."
Tyger Li's expression was cold as he intended to chase Shi Xiaobai away.
Shi Xiaobai remained silent and locked eyes with Tyger Li. He had a calm expression as he suddenly took a step to the left. However, his figure moved to the right like a phantom. Instantly, he reached the right side of the hall, leaving the seven soldiers somewhat alarmed. It was too late for them to stop him.
From this angle, they could no longer block Shi Xiaobai's line of sight.
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.
