Chapter 273: Bai Yu's Precaution
Although Tang Yuehua wasn't afraid of death and had prepared for it before coming to find Bai Yu.
But aging and death are two different things; death is temporary, while aging is permanent!
Judging by the current situation, it was impossible for her to die. However, since she couldn't die, aging became her greatest enemy.
When she didn't have the ability to change this outcome before, Tang Yuehua was quite indifferent, but now, with the support of her enemy, Bai Yu, her path to Title Douluo was practically unobstructed.
Since that was the case, why should she be polite? A Title Douluo achieved with an enemy's support was still a Title Douluo, right? It was the same!
After Tang Yuehua finished absorbing the Ten-Thousand Year Blood Ginseng King and a Spirit Bone, Bai Yu sensed the spirit power within her body and nodded.
“Hmm, my prediction wasn't wrong. She's probably around level fifty-two or fifty-three, which is decent. After you acquire a spirit ring in the Soul Transmission Tower, you should be able to improve further.”
“This is my cultivation method. Keep it safe. You can return to Heaven Dou City by yourself later and continue being the Moon Pavilion Master. I still have some matters here, so I won't accompany you back.”
“Remember to cultivate diligently and don't run around causing trouble. Don't forget, if you can't quickly advance to Title Douluo, I'll find a village man and marry you off.”
Bai Yu took out his cultivation method, handed it to Tang Yuehua, and then teased her with a playful wink.
Tang Yuehua's eyelids twitched twice, then she gritted her teeth, took Bai Yu's cultivation method, and walked towards the bathroom.
To be honest, given her feelings towards Bai Yu, she would rather marry a village man than serve him.
But unfortunately, circumstances were against her. Not only had her assassination attempt failed and she was captured, but her Elder brother, Tang Xiao, was also a leverage in Bai Yu's hands.
Therefore, for Tang Yuehua, she was now little better than a puppet, left to be molded and manipulated by Bai Yu, powerless to resist.
Bai Yu looked at Tang Yuehua's downcast back and shook his head slightly.
Bai Yu naturally understood what she was thinking, but understanding didn't help. This kind of hatred could only be slowly resolved by time.
To be honest, the simplest method would have been to silence Tang Yuehua directly after he succeeded, eliminating future troubles and avoiding any worries.
But that wouldn't do. Bai Yu simply liked this kind of challenge and couldn't bring himself to do it, which led to what happened before: giving her treasures, bestowing favors, and then slowly training her.
Afterward, Bai Yu also got dressed and left the hotel. He didn't wait for Tang Yuehua to come out, planning for her to return by herself.
After all, they were currently within Heaven Dou territory, with no danger, and even if he wanted to escort her, she might not appreciate it.
So, Bai Yu decided not to bother her and let Tang Yuehua slowly adapt.
...
Half a month later, Bai Yu was in a small city on the border, having lunch with Zhu Zhuqing and the others, listening to their casual chatter with a smile.
“Bai Yu, it’s just battle after battle on this battlefield every day, it’s so annoying.”
“We’ve already discussed it. We’ll leave here tomorrow and go to Heaven Dou City for a while. Do you want to come with us?”
After chatting with Ning Rongrong for a while, Shui Yue'er suddenly turned to Bai Yu, asking if he wanted to leave with them.
After Shui Yue'er finished speaking, the other girls also stopped their conversation and turned their gaze to Bai Yu.
During their initial arrival, the grand scenes on the battlefield had excited them beyond control.
But as time passed, the initial thrill faded, and the repetitive daily battles only made them feel irritable, losing their initial enthusiasm.
So, they planned to rest in Heaven Dou City for a while. After all, they were only here for experience and hadn't received any money from Heaven Dou, so no one would care if they left.
Bai Yu put down his chopsticks, leaned back in his chair, and said lazily:
“You all go ahead. I can't leave here yet. There's a very troublesome guy who might appear at any time.”
“If I leave and that guy manages to sneak in and smash the front-line command center, the losses would be too great.”
Hearing Bai Yu's words, the girls all showed surprised expressions. They hadn't expected that there was someone on the Star Luo side who could make Bai Yu feel so difficult to deal with.
“Who is this person you’re talking about? I remember Rongrong’s family’s Bone Douluo is also at the command center, right?”
“He’s a Super Douluo close to level 96. Can’t even he deal with them?”
Liu Erlong frowned, looking at Bai Yu with some confusion. She truly couldn't figure out who could make Bai Yu take them so seriously.
Now that the Clear Sky Sect had been disbanded by Bai Yu, fewer and fewer people from it appeared on the battlefield, so it couldn't be someone from the Clear Sky Sect.
But besides the Clear Sky Sect, it was even more impossible for others. The Star Luo Empire didn't have this capability. Although there were rumors that the current Xingluo Emperor was also a Title Douluo.
But even if he was a Title Douluo, given his age, he was probably just an ordinary one, not enough to make Bai Yu so serious.
The Star Crown Sect, however, did have this capability. Their Sect's Grand Elder was rumored to be a level 97 Super Douluo.
But they were different from the Clear Sky Sect. Sending one person to support Star Luo was already generous enough. It was impossible to ask them to send more people!
The Star Crown Sect would not tie themselves to Star Luo.
Hearing Liu Erlong's question, Bai Yu sighed, a hint of helplessness in his eyes.
“Level 96? Far from it! The person I'm talking about is the former-former Sect Master of the Clear Sky Sect, the first generation Clear Sky Douluo, Tang Chen, known as the invincible on land.”
“You don't know, to prevent this guy from causing trouble, not only do I have to be stationed at the front line, but even my teacher, Bibi Dong, has left Spirit City and is now staying in Heaven Dou City.”
“My teacher, the High Priest, and I, three people, are now each guarding a location, precisely to guard against him. Do you think a level 96 is enough?”
To be honest, Bai Yu also didn't want to stay here in the cold wind, as the Heaven Dou Empire already had the complete upper hand in the current war between the two nations.
Even if there were some variables, he wouldn't need to intervene. However, he had no choice but to remain here, as Tang San's sudden departure to Slaughter City made it hard to say it wasn't some trick by Shura.
So, just in case, not only could Bai Yu not leave, but he also sent a letter back to Spirit City, asking Bibi Dong to come out and be stationed in Heaven Dou City.
The reason for doing this was to prevent Tang Chen from suddenly going mad and causing chaos.
Of course, another reason was that Bai Yu wanted to give Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue, mother and daughter, a chance to talk and mend their relationship.
After Bai Yu finished speaking, the girls all grimaced, their expressions somewhat enlightened.
If it was that Tang Chen, then Bai Yu's actions were understandable, as Bai Yu had often mentioned Tang Chen in the Chronicle of Light and Shadow over the years.
This first generation Clear Sky Douluo was indeed a legendary figure.
