Chapter 2183

Yet at this moment, Xiao Bai's eyes suddenly welled up with tears, and she said, "I won't! I just won't! Master is my everything; it was Master who gave me a new life. If Master is in danger, Xiao Bai will definitely be the first to rush up!"

Wu Feng turned his head away, not daring to look at her fiery gaze. He knew of Xiao Bai's love for him.

Xiao Bai, however, still kept her eyes fixed on him and said, "Master, if Xiao Bai died today, then so be it. Would Master feel reluctant to let me go?"

"Xiao Bai has admired Master for over four or five years now. Now, Xiao Bai only wants an answer: what was that sentence Master wanted to say just now?"

Wu Feng stood up and sighed lightly; in the end, he still refused to say it.

In truth, Wu Feng's heart was in turmoil. How could he not like Xiao Bai? From the time Xiao Bai worried about his life and death before that bottomless pit, from the time Xiao Bai wanted to follow him without hesitation, from the time Xiao Bai transformed into her beautiful form, Wu Feng had long since lost his heart.

It was just that Wu Feng had his own considerations. Now he hoped that everything would depend on himself; he did not want her to think that just because she had a backer like him, she could slack off in her cultivation.

Xiao Bai's talent was the best he had ever seen among the White Fox clan. He hoped that Xiao Bai would become a leader in cultivation in the future.

Perhaps, by then, Wu Feng would reveal his true feelings to her and tell her that he liked her.

"I know, Master must be disgusted that I was born a demon, which is why you refuse to accept Xiao Bai."

Xiao Bai slumped on the ground, her white dress spread across the floor, her expression incomparably lonely as she whispered.

Wu Feng had originally been facing away from her, but when he turned back, he saw that Xiao Bai was gently wiping away tears.

When she realized Wu Feng was looking at her, her tears could no longer be held back; they fell like broken pearls.

Xiao Bai sobbed and said, "Demons are inherently inferior, and with Master's talent, Xiao Bai is even less worthy."

"I thought that if I could stay by Master's side, even for a lifetime, I would feel satisfied."

"But Xiao Bai dared not look at Master's face too much—that is a face I have been obsessed with for so long. I dared not even express my love to Master. I was afraid, afraid that once I said it, I wouldn't even have the qualifications to stay by Master's side as a maid... wuwuwu."

Behind him, Xiao Bai's crying was so sorrowful that Wu Feng, who considered himself someone very good at hiding his emotions, felt a bit unsettled.

Xiao Bai had finally confessed to him, even though for the past half year, he had been able to perceive from the depths of Xiao Bai's eyes that she had long since fallen hopelessly in love with him.

However, Wu Feng truly pitied Xiao Bai's drifting and lonely life. He hoped that Xiao Bai would also become strong in the future, so that even if he were not by her side, she would be able to protect herself completely.

Behind him, Xiao Bai kept crying, and every sob tugged at Wu Feng's heartstrings.

Wu Feng let out a long sigh and said, as if to himself, "Forget it, so be it."

Suddenly, Wu Feng turned around, looked at Xiao Bai, a gentle smile appearing on his face, and said, "Xiao Bai, let me ask you." ===== CHAPTER 2185 =====
