I Don’t Want to Get Hurt, So I’ll Max Out My Defense

Chapter 704: Chapter 705: The “Evil” of Split Personality
‘Extreme’ looked annoyed and furious, as a terrifying aura burst forth from within his Dantian, readying to attack.

From the void, a golden page emerged, floating gently toward Li Xiaobai, seeking to suppress him.

Li Xiaobai smiled faintly, neither dodging nor avoiding, and with a light tap of his toe, he kicked a pebble from the road to the side. ‘Extreme’ immediately let out a sharp scream, swaying as he picked up the pebble and carefully placed it back on the road. The terrifying pressure in the void dissipated in an instant.

“Hahaha, city folks are really different, such cleanliness—it’s indeed a bit unlike us country folk. You pursue perfection in everything, I admire that. I’ll take my leave now,”

Li Xiaobai laughed heartily, deliberately leaving a line of footprints in the mud as he strode away.

“Scoundrel!”

“Country bumpkins just don’t understand!”

“Don’t let me see you again!”

Behind him, ‘Extreme’ cursed Li Xiaobai vehemently. He wanted to take action but forcibly held back, squatting on the ground and meticulously wiping the shoe prints. To him, maintaining the cleanliness of the fifth floor was the utmost priority.

Li Xiaobai chuckled inwardly; dealing with compulsive cleanliness was a cinch for him, especially one as evident as this.

Just a stain, a string of footprints was enough to disrupt his opponent’s rhythm. He really wondered how such a person managed to cultivate to his current realm.

…

The sixth floor.

This was the location of the last member of the group of four, ‘Evil’, according to what ‘Extreme’ had said, this person was somewhat mad, an undeniable lunatic.

However, Li Xiaobai didn’t care. In his eyes, ‘Extreme’ seemed more like a lunatic. With his compulsive cleanliness taken to such an extreme, he was truly a madman.

The Attribute Points gained from this floor had increased to an impressive fifty thousand, although the rate of increase wasn’t as rapid as before.

The corridor was empty; faintly, he could hear a man’s angry scolding, seemingly chiding someone about their faults.

Li Xiaobai continued to walk further inside, then paused, hearing another man’s voice. This floor seemed to have two people in the midst of an argument, which was perplexing. Wasn’t it said that each floor contained only one person?

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

Why was there an extra person on the sixth floor? Could it be that they were recently incarcerated, and the other prisoners were unaware?

Heading towards the direction of the sounds, he came to a cave dwelling. Perhaps because no living person had ventured here in many years, the door was open, and the voices inside were much clearer.

“Useless! Useless! You are nothing but useless!”

“You can’t even handle such a small matter. If not for the fact that we are brothers, I would have slaughtered you long ago!”

“If it weren’t for you, how would I have ever been captured by that Old Dragon King?”

“Hurry up and clean the floor!”

The man barked harshly.

“It’s my fault, big brother; please calm down, I’ll wipe it up right now!”

Another voice replied in a submissive and fearful manner.

“Hmm, there really are two people?”

Li Xiaobai furrowed his brows, wanting to get closer to hear what, exactly, the two inside the cave dwelling were arguing about.

But at that moment, the noise from within the cave dwelling stopped abruptly.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

“Who’s out there!”

“Daring to eavesdrop on our conversation, have you grown tired of living?”

The rough voice suddenly bellowed.

“Brother, perhaps the warden has come,”

whispered a timid voice softly.

“Idiot, you’re incredibly foolish. Yang Tian always enters with his head held high, never skulking at the door like this one eavesdropping!”

“Hurry and see who the visitor is!”

the gruff voice spoke up angrily.

Li Xiaobai knew he had been discovered and didn’t hide any longer, confidently stepping out from the corner to stand in front of the cave dwelling, smiling amiably as he spoke, “Greetings, fellow daoists. I am Li Xiaobai, just passing by this treasured place in search of something.”

But his expression immediately turned blank, because inside the cave dwelling, there was only a pale-faced youth dressed in a red robe, skinny as a skeleton, with bluish lips and sunken eye sockets, clearly in a very poor mental state, with extremely diminished vitality.

However, his hair was quite peculiar, half black and half white, perfectly symmetrical.

“So it’s Young Master Li. My name is ‘Good’. A pleasure to meet you. May I ask what you are searching for? Perhaps I might be able to offer some assistance,”

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

the youth said with a light smile, appearing very friendly.

“‘Good’? Could it be there’s another in the cave named ‘Evil’?”

Li Xiaobai asked, somewhat perplexed, his gaze searching around but unable to find any trace of another person, which was quite mysterious.

“Why bother talking so much to him!”

“This kid looks soft and tender, obviously a newcomer to the Celestial Prison. Just kill him!”

All of a sudden, the youth’s expression turned violent and horrifying, completely different from his previously mild manner, as if he had become a different person.

“We’re all fellow prisoners here, having more friends means more paths. We can’t kill!”

“No one can share a room with us, as one mountain cannot contain two tigers. In the fifth layer, there only needs to be one overlord, it’s either his death or mine, do him in!”

“Don’t kill!”

“Hurry and kill him!”

“No…”

Inside the cave dwelling, the youth put on a spectacle of high drama, almost like face-changing in a Sichuan opera, continuously talking to himself with his voice shifting back and forth between tough and meek. If one didn’t see it with their own eyes, they’d never imagine that these conversational exchanges were all coming from one person.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

Li Xiaobai realized that this youth seemingly possessed two consciousnesses in his mind, one being ‘Good’ and the other ‘Evil’; this was a clear case of split personality.

Moreover, the division was very thorough, resulting in a secondary persona. From their quarreling voices, Li Xiaobai deduced that ‘Good’ was the original controller of the body, and ‘Evil’ must have been generated afterwards, otherwise the other party would have attacked him long ago.

“You’re always this weak, that’s why you were locked up by the Old Dragon King. From now on, you must follow my lead! Hurry and hand over the control of the body to me, I will help you kill him!”

“This person made it to the sixth layer. Even within the Mahayana Realm, he is quite outstanding and must possess many treasures. If we take them for ourselves, perhaps we can restore even more Spiritual Power. Then, when we break out of prison with the individual above, we can escape from this cage completely, understand!”

‘Evil’ spoke with frustration, as if running out of patience.

“No, with the Binding Pill present, even if we restore a lot of Spiritual Power, it’s futile. We have no ability to use the Spiritual Power within us, and we shouldn’t recklessly commit murder! Besides, it was your random killing last time that got us caught by the Old Dragon King!”

“From now on, you’re not allowed to kill at will!”

‘Good’ stated firmly, completely disregarding ‘Evil’s desires.

“Damn it, don’t expose my shortcomings!”

Li Xiaobai was dumbfounded as he watched, they were blatantly conspiring in front of him, plotting to escape from prison and even looking to do so in collaboration with that terrifying entity on the seventh layer.

That was a lot to take in.

“Ahem, it seems that what I’m looking for isn’t here. Please continue, gentlemen. I will take my leave now.”
