Chapter 541: 541: Side Effects of the Title
Jiang Xiaobai’s first response was that something was off, knowing the crane was knowledgeable, this odd look of his certainly hinted at something fishy.
“Nothing much, where did you get this kid from?”
The white crane gestured at Huseng with his chin.
“He’s my disciple.”
“You think I don’t know he’s your disciple? But… well, never mind, it’s all fate.”
The white crane waved his hand, clearly not wanting to continue discussing this matter.
Jiang Xiaobai didn’t ask further and simply sat on the stone bench, sipping tea.
Having just experienced a bout of frenzied killing, he didn’t know why, but he felt an inexplicable emotion.
It was a feeling of not being satisfied.
“You’ve been having some issues lately. Try to calm down and avoid unnecessary killings.”
The white crane walked by Jiang Xiaobai and left a pill by his side.
At a glance, Jiang Xiaobai knew that this pill was helpful for the soul and was rare.
“This thing, you’re not charging for it, are you?” Jiang Xiaobai joked.
The white crane rolled his eyes, “Consider it a gift from me. Get ready, the auction will start in two hours when it gets dark.”
With that, the white crane left without saying what he was going to do.
The entire courtyard was only left with Jiang Xiaobai and his company.
Everyone was staring at Jiang Xiaobai.
Because they all picked up on a problem — there was something off about Jiang Xiaobai!
An elusive red aura was emanating from him, and intertwined within were thin black lines.
It was exceedingly strange!
No one knew what it was, and neither did Jiang Xiaobai.
He was not at peace, and didn’t pay much attention to Ao Yan and the others’ curious looks.
All Jiang Xiaobai wanted was to calm down quickly.
Immediately after, he held the pill that the white crane gave him and popped it into his mouth, an immediate cool sensation washed over him.
This was a comfortable feeling originating from his soul, he just wanted to shut his eyes and get a good sleep.
Unconsciously, he wanted to try and refine his soul. But when he looked within, Jiang Xiaobai was stunned.
Normally, the depicted soul should be transparent!
If it has been fused with the power of elements, it would change colors accordingly, if it was fused with the rule force, it would transform into a rainbow soul.
But at this moment, Jiang Xiaobai clearly saw that his soul was light red!
“System, do you know what’s happening?”
Jiang Xiaobai anxiously asked the system in his mind.
“This is the side effect of the Evil One title of the three thousand worlds. Everything is normal, so the host need not worry.”
“Once the host has sculpted the soul, the murderous intent inside the soul will disperse and won’t affect the host. During this period, the host’s desire to kill would grow a hundredfold.”
“Moreover, this feeling will intensify with the host’s continuous killing.”
“Please adapt slowly, host.”
Jiang Xiaobai was shocked when the system finished its explanation!
So this Evil One title of the three thousand worlds actually has side effects?
What about its main effect then?
Up until now, he was still clueless!
But he sure knew that he was forced by the system to take on the Evil One title of the three thousand worlds.
Thinking of this, Jiang Xiaobai quickly searched through the system and found a badge-like item in his storage space.
“Evil One title of the three thousand worlds: With this title, the host will become the object of fear in any world. Reckless action by the host will result in incurring endless hatred, caution is advised.”
“Side effect: During the possession of the title, the host will continuously be affected by the title, form and thought will lean towards evil.”
After carefully reading the function of this title, Jiang Xiaobai understood why this situation was happening.
He was clearly being affected by this title!
And this influence was undetectable and couldn’t be countered against, the only thing he could do was to stop using this title.
The method to cancel this title was to keep his evil reputation under control.
“Damn it, I didn’t even do anything wrong. Those jerks really deserved to die!”
Thinking that his notoriety was due to the Sky Demon Sect, Jiang Xiaobai felt a surge of anger.
His killing intent was incredibly strong. He had never been so eager to annihilate a sect!
But immediately, Jiang Xiaobai came to a realization.
“No way, this title’s influence is this terrifying?”
He just realized that this thought had come up due to the influence of the title.’
As long as this title was still on him, his situation continued to worsen day by day.
Will he, in the end, truly become a notorious criminal?
Jiang Xiaobai didn’t know, and he dared not to know.
All he knew was he had to quickly sort out his evil reputation, because this title was too influential to him.
Earlier, he was slightly displeased only, but suddenly he wanted to eradicate the Sky Demon Sect!
For someone like Jiang Xiaobai to think like this is undoubtedly the greatest trouble.
Or even threat!
“Could it be, the white crane had noticed something just now?”
Jiang Xiaobai suddenly remembered the white crane’s abnormal behavior, but there was nothing much he could do about it immediately.
The troublesome reputation brought by evil was quite a challenge to tackle, and couldn’t be solved by simply consuming some pills.
After all, this was from the system.
This effect was compulsory, even if Jiang Xiaobai had unrivalled cultivation, he would still be affected.
“No worries, I can do some good deeds when I get to the Sacred City, or try to clear my name.”
Jiang Xiaobai muttered to himself.
Time flew by quickly, and the two hours was up, night had fallen.
Jiang Xiaobai opened his eyes and, with Ao Yan and the others, arrived at the auction house of the pawnshop.
They were just here to watch, since whatever was being auctioned was given to the white crane, Jiang Xiaobai did not stand to gain anything.
The odd part was, this auction only had two items.
An authorization token and half a cultivation manual.
Despite having just two items, the auction was bustling, with the auction hall filled to capacity.
Such a spectacular auction, perhaps only the pawnshop could pull it off.
After entering the box that the white crane had arranged, everyone sat down, and Ao Yan looked at Jiang Xiaobai.
“Xiaobai, you seem troubled.”
Ao Yan asked with concern
As soon as she finished, everyone turned to look at Jiang Xiaobai.
After all, there was a significant change in him after he returned from his disappearance these few days!
