I Don't Want to Get Hurt, So I'll Max Out My Defense-Chapter 27 - Little Loli Chu Xiaoxiao

Li Xiaobai was now very angry, with a large number of Demonic Beasts chasing after him, nearly scaring off the cultivators in front of him.

He turned around and threw punches and kicks at the group of Demonic Beasts, but unfortunately, without using skills he could not affect the beasts, and using skills would cut off his source of Attribute Points.

He was counting on these Demonic Beasts to help him level up!

The several young men and women were sweating profusely. What kind of cultivation level was this, allowing Demonic Beasts to bite him like it was nothing?

With such strength and such odd preferences, he must undoubtedly be an expert, possibly even a senior powerhouse?

Seeing this, a little girl nearby wasn't afraid. Taking advantage of the others not paying attention, she ran towards Li Xiaobai's direction, clinging to his leg and wouldn't let go.

"Big brother, save me, they want to steal my Spiritual Medicine!"

"I'm from the Holy Demon Sect, and Sect Leader Ou Yezi is my master. Big brother, if you take them out for me, my master and grandmaster will reward you!"

This little girl was clever and witty.

Li Xiaobai scrutinized the Spiritual Medicine in her hand for a while, shook his head in disappointment—he didn't need to cultivate, and these kinds of cultivation-boosting Spiritual Medicines were useless to him.

Noticing Li Xiaobai's expression, the little girl relaxed. It seemed she had bet correctly; the big brother wasn't interested in her Linglong Grass and wouldn't compete for it.

His gaze turning to the few disciples in front of him, Li Xiaobai hesitated. The little girl seemed unreliable at best, and perhaps he would need to rely on these older disciples to find Demonic Beasts more swiftly.

The young men and women were frozen in place, looking at the fierce beasts continuously tearing and gnawing at Li Xiaobai, their calves cramping and cold sweat pouring out.

"Senior, we know we were wrong. We shouldn't bully the weak or snatch this young lady's Spiritual Medicine. We will leave now," the leading young man said as he pressed his hands together in salute, braving the pressure.

"Wait, no one is allowed to leave!"

Seeing the group attempting to leave, Li Xiaobai got a bit anxious—it was not easy to have finally encountered a bunch of people, and he wasn't about to let them go so easily.

"What advice does Senior have for us?" The young man's anxiety peaked, already calculating how to escape.

In his Space Ring, there were a few Explosive Talismans, unsure if they would have any effect.

The rest of them also stood solemnly, as if facing a formidable enemy.

"No advice, really. It's just lonely on the road; could you keep me company?" Li Xiaobai asked with a sudden change of expression, smiling cheerfully.

"This..."

The group was taken aback; they had not expected this "senior expert" to make such a request.

"Certainly, Senior. If you do not despise our company, we would be honored to explore the Divine Beast Mountain Range together."

"I am Ouyang Feng, may I have the honor of knowing Senior's illustrious name?" The young man was very respectful.

"My name is Li Xiaobai."

Li Xiaobai found this very amusing—how had he, Xiaobai, suddenly become a revered senior expert?

"Big brother, you can't go with them, wah! They just tried to steal the Spiritual Medicine I worked so hard to dig up!" The little girl cried out loudly, utterly unwilling to team up with the group.

Ouyang Feng's face turned awkward. No one had anticipated that in less than a minute, their relationship would shift from enemies to companions.

"You don't want to walk with them?" Li Xiaobai asked.

"Right, right, they are not good people!" The little girl saw a glimmer of hope.

"Then you can walk by yourself. I came from that way, and I didn't see any Demonic Beasts when I arrived," Li Xiaobai said considerately, moving the little girl aside and then pointed out the direction he had come from.

The little girl was stunned; she hadn't dreamt she would receive this kind of response.

What's going on, why isn't the big brother playing by the rules?

Could it be that this big shot didn't come especially to save her?

She's so cute, how could the big shot be so heartless to let her walk alone?

Could it be that the big shot doesn't like little lolitas?

Yeah, that must be it!

After a brief struggle, the little lolita immediately stepped forward and hugged Li Xiaobai's thigh again. In her view, only by following the big shot could she be safe, and maybe she could even make a small fortune!

"Big shot, after thinking about it, these people aren't all that bad. They just wanted to snatch the Spiritual Medicine and didn't have any murderous intentions. They're pretty decent!"

Everyone was somewhat speechless, the little lolita changed her face faster than flipping a book, and for a moment, they didn't know what to say.

"What's your name, is the Sect Leader of the Holy Demon Sect your master?"

Li Xiaobai asked, curious about the Holy Demon Sect.

"I'm Chu Xiaoxiao, I am indeed the personal disciple of the Sect Leader of the Holy Demon Sect. Out of all the disciples, the Sect Leader treats me the best!" Chu Xiaoxiao said with pride.

"Then why are you so weak?"

Li Xiaobai was puzzled. How could a True Disciple of the Holy Demon Sect be bullied by these guys who didn't even seem to be at the Golden Core Stage?

As soon as these words came out, it was awkward for everybody all over again.

There was no helping it, whatever the big shot said was right. Being looked down upon just had to be accepted, it wasn't shameful.

"I wanted to prioritize peace. If I had taken action, it would be either death or serious injury..." Chu Xiaoxiao said with less confidence.

Li Xiaobai shrugged, noncommittal.

Ouyang Feng chimed in just in time, "Senior, which way should we go now?"

Upon hearing Ouyang Feng's question, Li Xiaobai remembered that he came to hunt Demonic Beasts.

"Whichever way has more Demonic Beasts, that's where we'll go!"

"Then what about these on your body..."

Ouyang Feng pointed at the fierce tiger gnawing on Li Xiaobai's shoulder as he spoke.

The fierce tiger seemed to sense what Ouyang Feng meant and bared its teeth at him, causing Ouyang Feng to retreat repeatedly in fright.

"No problem, just let it hang there."

Patting the tiger's head, Li Xiaobai said with a chuckle.

The team set off in a strange fashion, with the young men and women walking up front, and Li Xiaobai following leisurely behind. The people in front moved unsteadily, constantly looking back, fearful that the Demonic Beasts on Li Xiaobai's body might charge at them.

"Crack!"

A crisp sound was heard as the tiger's teeth crumbled to pieces, its head mangled and bloody, falling to the ground.

At the same time, the porcupine that had been continuously ramming into him also fell down. This was Li Xiaobai's passive skill 'Reflect' taking effect.

Although these Demonic Beasts had been tearing at him, they had been suffering damage themselves. Now the damage had reached a critical point, and they couldn't hold on anymore, dying from their own reflected damage.

"Big shot, let me help you!"

With quick reflexes, the little lolita Chu Xiaoxiao pulled out a Dagger from somewhere and started cutting into the Demonic Beasts on the ground, extracting a pile of Demonic Beast materials.

The others also wanted to come forward and get a share, but with the big shot present, they didn't dare to act rashly, only watching with greedy eyes.

Having the backing of a power like the Holy Demon Sect made all the difference, even daring to take the Demonic Beast materials from a senior. Indeed, it was still a world where strength was respected.

"Hehe, big shot, these are all Foundation Establishment Stage and Golden Core Stage Demonic Beast materials, and with your boundless mana, you surely wouldn't care for such trivial things. Why not just give them to me?"

Saying so, Chu Xiaoxiao started stuffing the Demonic Beast materials into her clothing pockets.

"Wait!"
