Chapter 200: Scattered Everywhere
Shui Bing'er had originally thought that even if Bai Yu’s age was underestimated, he would still be close to their parents’ generation.
After all, although Bai Yu’s face looked young, his strength was indeed formidable. He could conjure a massive storm with a raise of his hand and control it precisely. She even wondered if the previous head of the Shui family, her Spirit Douluo grandfather, could achieve such a feat.
Moreover, Spirit Masters possess a wide variety of abilities and cannot be compared to ordinary people. Perhaps Bai Yu simply enjoyed maintaining a youthful appearance?
But she was completely wrong, terribly wrong. This senior she had assumed him to be was only one year older than her sister, making him their peer?
“Bing’er, did you hear that? He’s only one year older than me! Do you think he has a girlfriend now? If I were to pursue him, would he agree?”
Shui Yue’er tugged at Shui Bing’er’s arm, muttering a string of words.
Shui Bing’er’s eyelids twitched, and she gave her infatuated sister a fierce glare. Is this really the time to be concerned about whether he has a girlfriend? You should be focusing on his strength, you idiot!
So young, yet possessing such strength—how did he manage it?
“Hmph! Stop being a lovesick fool here. Let’s hurry back and check on Xue Wu and the others’ injuries, to see how their treatment is progressing.”
“If they’re almost done, we should bring them along. That sen… Bai Yu saved all of us. It wouldn’t be good if someone were missing.”
Shui Yue’er pouted, feeling that her sister didn’t understand her at all. How was she a lovesick fool? She just liked handsome guys!
When they returned to the Tianshui Academy’s lounge, the other members of the Tianshui Team all looked at them.
“How was it? Did you manage to talk to that senior?”
“Captain, that guy has a strange sense of humor. Will he be difficult to talk to? He didn’t make things hard for you, did he?”
“He shouldn’t, right? As a powerful senior, he wouldn’t possibly make things difficult for two young girls, would he? Doesn’t he care about his reputation?”
Before Shui Bing’er could even speak, everyone began chattering incessantly, leaving her no chance to interject.
Finally, it was their dean and team leader, Shui Bing’er’s mother, Shui Lingshuang, who spoke up, causing everyone to quiet down.
Shui Bing’er looked at their inquisitive gazes and spoke with some difficulty:
“He didn’t make things difficult for us, and he was quite easy to talk to. It’s just that he’s a bit different from what we expected.”
“I told him that our Tianshui Academy intended to repay him and that he could ask for anything, but he only chose to have us treat him to a meal.”
“And what’s most difficult for me to accept is that the upheaval in the Far North was indeed caused by him, and he is only nineteen years old, not the senior we thought he was.”
“Ah!?”
Hearing Shui Bing’er’s words, everyone from Tianshui opened their mouths wide, their expressions aghast.
“Nineteen? Captain, you’re not joking, are you? How could someone with that kind of strength be nineteen? Then I’m twenty-one this year, so have I been living in vain all these years?”
Yu Hairou jumped up directly, unable to believe that she was actually two years older than a senior. Isn’t this just ridiculous?
Amidst Yu Hairou’s disbelief, Shui Bing’er nodded firmly, indicating that she had not misheard.
Yu Hairou despaired, slumping onto her chair, gazing up at the sky, her eyes vacant. She had always thought of herself as a small genius; level 42 at twenty-one years old was already quite good, wasn’t it?
She never expected that one day she would be instantly reduced to dust. Thinking of the scene when Bai Yu made his move earlier, she felt a wave of despair.
Of course, at this moment, not only Yu Hairou, but everyone else also found it hard to believe that the person who could resolve their crisis with a mere raise of his hand was only nineteen years old!
“Nineteen years old? So young, so strong—could it be that person?”
Shui Lingshuang frowned, muttering to herself in a low voice.
“Mom, do you know who he is?”
Shui Bing’er blinked, looking at Shui Lingshuang in confusion. Although her mother’s voice was soft just now, she had heard it clearly.
Shui Lingshuang shook her head, saying uncertainly:
“I don’t know, but I have some conjectures. You all know about the Spirit Hall’s conferment of the Saint Son back then, right?”
“That Saint Son has never shown his face since his conferment, nor has his name been revealed. He’s like a divine dragon, seen only by its head, never its tail.”
“Do you think it’s possible he’s that Saint Son?”
As soon as Shui Lingshuang finished speaking, everyone’s expressions turned thoughtful. It must be said, this was indeed very possible. To cultivate such a monstrous talent, besides the Spirit Hall, there seemed to be no other place on the continent.
“Alright, stop thinking so much. No matter where he came from, he still saved your lives. Bing’er, didn’t you say he asked you to treat him to a meal? Then you all should go and call him.”
“I’ll go to the Tiandou Great Hotel to book a table first. Then you can just take him directly there.”
Shui Lingshuang clapped her hands, startling the members of the Tianshui Team awake, then instructed them to find Bai Yu. She, meanwhile, left first to arrange things at the hotel.
Subsequently, Shui Bing’er and the others tidied up and went directly to the Shrek Academy’s lounge to inform Bai Yu to go to the Tiandou Great Hotel together.
“Sen… Bai Yu, my mother has already booked a table at the hotel. We can go now.”
Bai Yu watched the Tianshui people all looking at him as if he were a rare species, and he sighed helplessly.
“Sigh, let’s go!”
Bai Yu stood up and quickly walked out. He wanted to finish this meal quickly and get this favor over with, otherwise, being stared at like a monkey was truly unbearable.
But the lovesick Shui Yue’er clearly lacked tact. Not only did she not help him alleviate the awkwardness, she made it even worse.
Shui Yue’er walked up to Bai Yu, her eyes filled with hope as she asked:
“Bai Yu, do you have a girlfriend? If not, what do you think of me?”
“Although my strength is a bit weak, since you’re so strong, you surely wouldn’t care about your girlfriend’s strength, would you?”
Bai Yu’s mouth twitched. This was truly a gem! I’m so embarrassed right now, can you please not ask such even more embarrassing questions?
Then Bai Yu rolled his eyes. He had made up his mind; it didn’t matter. As long as he wasn’t embarrassed, then the others would be.
“Yes, and quite a few. The three girls you fought today are all my girlfriends. Not only them, but there are many more outside!”
“Ah!?”
Shui Yue’er was stunned. She felt her heart make a cracking sound, shattering into pieces, scattered everywhere.
He was such a perfect handsome guy, why did he turn into a philandering pervert? She couldn’t accept it!
“How can this be? If you have so many girlfriends, would they be willing? Aren’t you afraid they’ll fight?”
Bai Yu clicked his tongue, waving his hand as he said:
“They won’t fight. Since I dare to have them, I have the confidence to manage them. Haven’t you seen how well the three you fought with get along?”
