Chapter 156: Chapter 156: Freeloading
Translator: 549690339
The moment Jiang Xiaobai heard the System’s voice, he knew his idea was correct!
If he could trigger the System’s choices under certain circumstances, could he not exploit this, or even fish for rewards?
For instance, right now, Jiang Xiaobai actually had a way to escape the pursuit of these guys. He just needed to use Earth Evasion to travel a certain distance, then add Wind Evasion, and finally activate “Divine Concealment”. He was sure they would not be able to catch him.
But he didn’t do that. Instead, he continued to run with his two legs, aiming to trigger the System’s choices, and then, freeload!
Yes, freeloading!
He had already freeloaded a reward for escaping once, which was ten years of cultivation. This time, he wanted to freeload again.
After making the first choice, the reward of cultivation immediately entered his account. It was another ten years of cultivation. Although there was no significant effect, it was still hard to come by.
Seeing this, he was overjoyed, as if he had found a trick!
However, Jiang Xiaobai was also aware in his heart that the System couldn’t possibly be so rigid. If he continued to escape and it continued to trigger choices, he might obtain thousands of years’ worth of cultivation rewards if he escaped for a day and a night.
But this was absolutely not okay. Jiang Xiaobai estimated that he could only freeload for a few opportunities at most.
But even with just a few opportunities, he was quite satisfied. Having a few more ten years of cultivation was a good thing, and it was free!
If the System had feelings, it would probably jump up and swear: “Are you fucking finding loopholes here with me?”
Cut off at the front and pursued from the rear, in such a tense situation, most people would be full of urgency and panic. However, Jiang Xiaobai was not like this, he actually started laughing.
Zheng Xiong, who was chasing him from behind, saw Jiang Xiaobai laughing and his anger intensified.
“You bastard, how dare you ridicule me?”
Zheng Xiong felt very useless at this moment, not being able to catch a Nascent Soul Stage guy, and this sense of failure was transformed into endless killing intent and anger.
“Ahhh, I will kill you!” Zheng Xiong roared, using a trick to speed up himself.
Although he was only a bit faster, he was sure he could eventually catch him.
Jiang Xiaobai listened to Zheng Xiong’s roaring behind him without any panic, and at the same time, the voice of the System appeared in his mind again.
It was similar to the previous time. The first option was to run away, with the same reward of ten years of cultivation.
Jiang Xiaobai didn’t hesitate to choose to continue freeloading. Moreover, he wanted to start skirting the edge of death.
Because he was afraid that if he continued like this, the people behind him would not be able to catch up, and who knows what would happen then?
In this way, he would be unable to continue freeloading for cultivation time!
So, Jiang Xiaobai deliberately slowed down his running speed somewhat. Of course, he wouldn’t do anything to jeopardize his own safety. When the people behind him were about to catch up, he would speed up.
He did this in order to let Zheng Xiong see a hope of catching him.
As expected, after Zheng Xiong found this out, he became even more furious and desperate. He tried his best to catch up with Jiang Xiaobai.
In this way, Jiang Xiaobai managed to string along the powerhouse of the Thousand Yuan Dynasty for more than half an hour, during which he freeloaded another twenty years of cultivation, making a total of fifty years of cultivation.
Under normal circumstances, he would need to make three to five choices to achieve this!
Having experienced the joy of freeloading, Jiang Xiaobai felt like he was immersed in it, unable to pull himself out.
“Congratulations to the host for triggering a choice!”
“Choice One: Continue to flee, reward: Monkey King brand cigarettes.”
“Choice Two: Resolve the crisis within ten minutes, reward: Thirty years of cultivation. ”
Suddenly, two choices appeared before Jiang Xiaobai. Upon seeing the reward content for the choices, he understood that the System was probably exhausted by him and continuing to freeload was unlikely.
Right then, he chose the second one. Following this, Jiang Xiaobai abruptly stopped running and stood still on the spot.
Zheng Xiong and others chasing him from behind obviously didn’t expect this.
They almost crashed into him head-on. However, all were strong fighters with
high combat instinct. Upon noticing the opportunity, they quickly reacted,
immediately surrounding Jiang Xiaobai at the center.
Over 200 people in total, about 30-40 people in the late stage of
Transcendence, surrounded Jiang Xiaobai in a ring formation without leaving any gaps.
“Run, why aren’t you running? Huh?”
Zheng Xiong looked at Jiang Xiaobai and roared, “You dog, why did you stop? Weren’t you running happily just now?”
Jiang Xiaobai said casually, “Well, I just thought you guys looked really tired, so
I stopped to give you all a break.”
Upon hearing this, the numerous powerhouses of the Thousand Yuan Dynasty were dumbfounded.

“I hereby declare that you’ve been surrounded by me. Kneel down and surrender immediately. Hand over your belongings and I might spare your lives, ” Jiang Xiaobai pointed towards Zheng Xiong and said seriously.
Zheng Xiong looked at Jiang Xiaobai as if he was looking at an idiot.
“Still pretending, eh? You think you can get out with that little strength of yours? You think you can find help?”
Zheng Xiong sneered, “I’m giving you a chance. Kneel down and abolish your own cultivation, I can save you some physical suffering. Or, let me catch you, I will skin you alive.”
“You can’t even beat a Nascent Soul Stage like me, and you have the nerve to ask me to kneel and surrender, who gave you the courage?” Jiang Xiaobai mocked.
“Your mouth is pretty tough. Since you don’t cherish this opportunity, just wait and see how I torture you later.”
Zheng Xiong, with his eyes red and teeth clenched, bellowed.
He even had already thought about it in his heart, how to torture Jiang Xiaobai when he catches him later. He would use all kinds of methods; he wanted Jiang Xiaobai to wish he were dead!
“Take action, catch him for me.” Zheng Xiong snorted.
At his command, all the Silver Armoured warriors around him drew the same long spears, then swung them in the air, causing a whistling sound as they rushed towards Jiang Xiaobai.
Jiang Xiaobai just smirked, fiercely crushing a talisman in his hand. In an instant, he felt his Dantian start to swell, and overwhelming power surged through his body.
In an instant, his power reached the late stage of Dividing the Gods, he felt as though he could easily pierce through the ground with his every move. All of this was merely an illusion caused by the sudden increase in power.
“Burst! ”
Jiang Xiaobai shouted, his aura crazily scattering, applying the terrifying deterrent power of the late stage of Dividing the Gods on Zheng Xiong and others, and at the same time, the Abyssal Rainbow appeared, and he swept it fiercely.
Hum!
In an instant, a sword aura that was a finger thick tore through space and attacked Zheng Xiong.
Upon seeing this, Zheng Xiong’s eyes almost fell out of their sockets. He immediately pulled out his life-saving item and put it in front of him..
