Chapter 166 I want to become stronger, I want to protect him!
Yuxi looked around this neatly organized residence, his eyes wandering in the space until his attention was suddenly attracted by the inconspicuous thin rope on the drawer under the table.
"what is this?"
Then, Yuxi reached out and opened the drawer, only to see two exquisite dragon-shaped pendants lying inside, with a bunch of wooden pendants that looked messy scattered around.
A trace of doubt appeared in his mind: "Is this Kai's thing?"
Then, Yuxi's thoughts were also attracted by these pendants. He couldn't help asking himself: "Why are there so many pendants? Even if I like them so much, there is no need to collect so many."
Finally, his eyes fell on two exquisite dragon-shaped pendants. He carefully observed their carvings and couldn't help but exclaim: "The carving craftsmanship of these two dragons is really amazing. They don't look like they are made of wood."
The next moment, a row of annotations appeared quietly.
Ding——"White beeswax:
[White beeswax is a holy product that gathers the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. It is extremely rare and exudes a light and elegant fragrance. It has many therapeutic effects, such as removing internal heat, relieving irritability, moisturizing the heart and lungs, helping the voice and throat, nourishing hair, nourishing the skin, dredging blood vessels, and improving hearing and eyesight.]
Yuxi secretly exclaimed in her heart: "These two pendants should be worth a lot of money, right?"
He looked at them carefully for a long time and was about to put them back carefully when the door suddenly opened and Kai came back.
Kai's curious voice came: "What are you looking at?"
Yuxi replied, "I noticed a rope under the table, so I pulled it out and took a look."
Kai nodded, "It's mine."
Yuxi asked, "Is this yours?"
Kai confirmed again: "They are mine. I have already carved them, but the knots are not completely finished yet."
Yuxi asked in surprise: "Is it well carved? You carved it yourself?!"
Kai answered modestly: "Well, the carving is not very beautiful. My hands are too clumsy, and the carving is a bit rough."
Yuxi couldn't believe it: "You call this clumsy?! Then I am simply clumsy! I thought you bought it..."
Kai shook his head and explained, "I didn't buy it. I found it by the lake."
“They made me feel comfortable, so I picked them up and carved them.”
"Can such a thing be picked up casually?!" Yuxi was shocked. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "Oh my god... What level of European emperor physique does this have to be!"
While Yuxi was secretly complaining in his heart, Kai had already skillfully woven a delicate dragon-shaped pendant into a rope and gently hung it around his neck.
Kai smiled slightly, with a hint of unintentional tenderness in his tone: "I originally planned to give you this pendant in two days, at a special moment."
He paused, his eyes fell softly on Yuxi's face, and continued: "But now that you have seen it, I think maybe now is that special moment."
Yuxi was stunned, and his reaction was a little slow, but then he felt his chest filled with a warm and moist feeling. That feeling made him extremely comfortable, as if his soul had been comforted in some way.
"Thank you!"
Yuxi's voice was full of emotion: "You always bring me surprises."
Yuxi said apologetically, "Come to think of it, I've never given you any gifts before."
Kai chuckled, with a hint of tenderness in his eyes: "Then give me something."
Yuxi hesitated for a moment, then asked, "What do you want?"
Kai's eyes became deep, and he said slowly: "Will you really give me...whatever I want?"
Yuxi did not hesitate at all and answered firmly: "As long as I have it, I will do my best to satisfy you."
Kai was silent for a while, then said softly: "But I haven't decided what I want yet."
He added: "I'll ask you for it when I think about it, okay?"
Yuxi nodded in agreement: "Of course."
Kai warned: "Then don't forget it."
Yuxi thought to herself: "He is such a reasonable person, he won't make any excessive demands."
So he replied, "Don't worry, I won't forget it."
In a happy mood, Yuxi stroked the pendant in his hand, feeling its warmth and weight. At this moment, he suddenly noticed that Kai was also wearing another similar pendant.
Kai suggested softly, "Let's go have dinner."
Yuxi responded with some surprise: "Dinner? It seems still early now..."
Before she finished speaking, Yuxi looked out the window and was surprised to find that the sky outside had gradually darkened. "Why is it dusk outside?!"
Kai explained calmly: "Because time passes quickly."
Yuxi sighed and said with emotion: "Alas, when I am with you, I always feel that time passes very quickly."
Yuxi continued, "Another day has passed before I knew it."
Kai also agreed with deep feeling: "I think so too."
As he spoke, Kai naturally took Yuxi's hand, and the two walked towards the cafeteria side by side.
On the way, Kai suddenly asked, "Tomorrow is when the Guixu Dream Performance Competition will begin."
"Are you nervous?"
After hearing this, Yuxi showed a confident smile: "Nervous? Are you kidding, I'm not afraid at all."
“I must come first!”
Yuxi already had a clear goal in mind: "To complete the exploration mission! I wasted so much time in Jixia!"
"If I can't get first place, how can I enter the Tower of Babel and complete the mission?"
"I also want to know where the stupid dragon in the Tower of Babel is..."
Kai listened to Yuxi's words and gave her affirmation and support: "Well, I believe you are the best."
Yuxi was praised and was about to smile, but suddenly she felt something tighten around her waist, and the next moment she was hugged tightly by Kai, and the two of them quickly retreated to the side.
A burly man with a head of golden hair shining brightly in the sun, wearing a gorgeous golden heavy armor, looking mighty and majestic.
He held a huge golden sword in his hand and exuded an unparalleled aura.
It was this sturdy man who jumped down with amazing strength and speed, and inserted the heavy golden sword deeply into the place where Kai and Yuxi had just stood.
Yuxi was stunned by the scene in front of her, and her heart was filled with confusion and surprise: "What the hell?"
As he looked at the blond man, a thought crossed his mind, "Could this be Arthur?"
The next moment, Arthur's angry voice rang out: "Kain! How dare you, a devil, show up here!"
His words were like a verdict, announcing a merciless blow to evil: "Die!"
At this time, before Yuxi and Kai could gain a firm foothold, Arthur's giant sword was swung again, slashing across with a fierce gust of wind.
In a hurry, Kai had no time to swing his sword to block, and could only use his arm to take the blow.
The collision between the giant sword and the armor made a sharp metal collision sound. The armor on Kai's arm was cut off in an instant, and Arthur's sword was stuck in his hand bones and could not be pulled out for the time being.
In just a moment, Kai's arm was bleeding profusely. Seeing the splattered blood, Yuxi became extremely anxious and kept praying for treatment in her mind.
"Treatment! Treatment!"
Yuxi couldn't help but speak out and asked with concern: "Brother! How are you?"
But Kai responded calmly: "It's okay, just a minor injury."
However, Yuxi saw blood gushing out of the wound, and her anxiety grew stronger: "Why is it still bleeding?! Why can't the bleeding be stopped?! Treatment, treatment, treatment!"
He kept repeating this in his mind, but his worry and anxiety made him fail to realize that he had overlooked the most crucial step.
In front of him, he watched the blood from Kai's wound flow out along the blood groove of the giant sword. The helplessness and despair made his vision begin to darken.
Kai didn't care about the pain on his body, but was amused by Yuxi's reaction.
"Ah…"
He chuckled and said in a gentle voice: "His sword is still stuck in my arm, and the wound can't heal."
But I don’t know if Yuxi heard it or not, he still looked panicked and anxious.
So, Kai continued to persuade with a calm and gentle voice, trying to comfort the person in front of him: "Don't worry, I will take care of this wound. Wait until I pull out the sword, and then we will continue."
He gently let go of Yuxi and pushed him forcefully to a safe distance.
Then, Kai's eyes were as sharp as torches, and he drew his sword from behind.
The sword blade cut through the air, and with a resolute will, it swung towards Arthur's head, launching sharp attacks again and again.
Arthur's reaction was incredibly fast. He suddenly let go of the huge sword in his hand, quickly stepped back, and dodged in time, barely avoiding the fatal blow.
Yuxi stood in the distance, his eyes fixed on the giant sword that was stuck in Kai's arm bone. Watching this scene, a strong sense of pain and heartache surged in his heart.
His heart felt as if it was cut by a sharp blade, and unspeakable pain spread in his heart.
"I'm so useless!" Yuxi thought to himself with self-mockery, his heart filled with self-blame and powerlessness.
"Why... is he always the one to protect me...?"
"He is always the one who gets hurt... It's like this again and again..." Yuxi's heart was filled with endless questions and resentment.
"Damn it!" He clenched his fists so tightly that his nails almost dug into his palms.
"I can't go on like this!" At this moment, Yuxi's heart burst out with unprecedented determination.
"I want to become stronger, I want to protect him!"
A strong obsession and unwillingness filled his heart, as if it was going to burst him.
His vision suddenly darkened and his consciousness began to blur.
