Chapter 8080: Temporary appeasement
Good things don't go out, but bad things spread thousands of miles.
Xue Qinghe of Shuitian, who had long been planning to recruit, also received news of the civil strife in Lanba Academy.
The fate of Shrek's teachers was clearly written on the paper, and it was specially marked that Shuitian intended to leave Lanba Academy.
Xue Qinghe smiled softly, the opportunity came.
She was able to analyze the incomplete information and figure out something from the last meeting. Now that she thought about it, it was not an accident that this happened.
It's just that she needs to think carefully about where to start and how to take this young Contra into her employ based on the actual situation.
"Come here~"
After a call, a voice came from nowhere in the bright hall.
"Young Master, please give me your instructions."
Xue Qinghe had an ambiguous smile on his lips and said with interest: "Go to Lanba Academy and keep an eye on Shuitian. As soon as he leaves the academy, send someone to notify me immediately."
After finishing speaking, she continued to deal with the official affairs at hand. Recently, Emperor Xueye began to hand over government affairs to her, as if she felt that her old self had lost the energy and began to slowly release power.
Whether it is really due to old age or the slow onset of toxins in the body, no one knows.
While flipping through, a summary from a northern town caught her attention.
A certain powerful soul master family is becoming more and more powerful, and there has been a situation in that city where the people only obey that family and ignore the imperial decrees.
The north is relatively remote, and the control capabilities of the Empire and Wuhun Palace are equally matched. Based on the current situation, whoever can win over that family will gain direct control of that city.
Not a city or a soul hall on the continent would be spared, and Xue Qinghe was even more determined to recruit Shuitian.
"Shui family, Shui Bing'er, the best genius of the younger generation, is studying at Tianshui Academy and was selected to be a member of the next team to participate in the Elite Competition of the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy. The martial spirit is~"
"Ning Shui Fei Luan?"
"Haha, it seems that you have someone to succeed you! If you can't use it for me~"
Her eyes became deep, and a faint golden light flickered in her pupils.
If it can't be collected, Wuhun Palace will never sit back and watch the Shui family have a second genius who can defeat the Titled Douluo with the power of Contra!
………
There was only a row of blue fluorescent pyroxene left in the warehouse. These items were brought by him from home and were usually used to decorate the cultivation environment.
It's just a pity that I haven't met any outstanding students with water or ice attributes. These things have been sitting here gathering dust for a long time.
Not knowing what he would do after cleaning up, Liu Erlong began to become nervous. What excuse should he find to continue to follow him.
While she was thinking, Shuitian stretched out his hand to stop her from wiping these things.
"What's wrong?" Liu Erlong looked at his profile.
The ice attribute soul power was released from his palm, allowing these pyroxenes to shine again.
These stones began to release low temperatures, causing the temperature of the entire warehouse to drop below freezing.
"Fortunately, it can still be used~" He was relieved. This thing is not precious, but a bit rare. It is only suitable for ice and water attribute soul masters.
After dissipating the soul power, these stones returned to their original state, with the dust on the surface completely cleaned.
Collect them piece by piece and bring them back to the family for use by the tribesmen who go out for experience.
Glancing at the empty room, it didn't even take a day to sort out ten years of inventory.
His mood was a bit complicated. He glanced at the woman still standing beside him and said, "It's time to pack up. It's time for you to go."
"Do you hate me so much?" Liu Erlong was very unhappy, why was he so cold to him.
Shuitian shook his head. It's been ten years. How can a relationship of ten years be annoying?
"You are just wasting your time by following me. I have my own things to do."
"I'll accompany you, Xiaotian, don't even think about leaving me." Liu Erlong stepped forward and looked at him affectionately.
This face was so beautiful, she felt that she would never get tired of looking at it.
She has never been so clingy, and now she is acting very worthless. Shuitian is sure that even if he asks her to strip naked and lie on the ground now, she will not refuse. It is too late for her to appear like this.
I don't want to say anything more to her here. Some things can't be solved by figuring it out. Shuitian said coldly: "My affairs have nothing to do with you, so don't follow me."
After saying that, he turned around and left. It was time to find someone to arrange for the garbage here to be cleaned up tomorrow morning.
"Wait a minute, Xiaotian, this is for you." Liu Erlong quickly ran to him and handed out the storage belt inlaid with eighteen gems.
"I said no, get out of the way." His face darkened, trying to scare her away.
Now Liu Erlong would never let him go. He couldn't help but grab his waist with both hands, and wanted to force him to change his belt.
This frightened Shuitian, and he had decided to end everything with her. How could he allow her to do such a thing for him?
He quickly took half a step back and shouted: "You've had enough, Liu Erlong, don't force me to fall out with you!"
He is so resistant now. She has done this kind of thing for him a lot in the past. Not to mention a belt, she even helped each other put on the underwear.
Liu Erlong shrank back in grievance, and said in a strong voice: "Then change it yourself. If you don't change it today, I will never let you out."
The tone was firm, and Shuitian felt very ridiculous for a moment.
Why should you stop yourself? Does she think she won't be cruel enough to attack her? Are you forgetting what happened to you early in the morning?
She didn't forget, she just wasn't afraid or didn't care. If he really hurt her, she wouldn't let him leave. She had to let him stay and take care of her.
Blue fluorescence flashed in his eyes, and Shuitian shouted: "Get away!"
Fierce——
A strong soul force shock erupted from the body, and a violent wind suddenly set off in the warehouse.
Faced with the impact of soul power released by Contra, Liu Erlong found it difficult to breathe despite his weak body.
But she was fearless, gritted her teeth and stepped forward to get closer to him.
She was obviously the weaker one, but she forced Shuitian to retreat continuously. When she saw him come out, she still wanted to hug him.
"Why are you retreating? If you can, just knock me out and run away. Shuitian, are you afraid of me?" Saying this, Liu Erlong felt very sad. There was nothing more painful for her than the man she loved resisting her. .
Liu Erlong would have gotten angry if he hadn't been trying to save him.
Shuitian lost his temper, and the storm of soul power dissipated with his gentle sigh.
"I'm very tired Liu Erlong. I've had enough of your playing both sides. Let me go, and let yourself go! We separate peacefully. If we meet again by fate, we can still maintain basic decency."
"No~"
Unable to bear his answer, Liu Erlong shook his head to resist his decision.
"It's not like that, I don't want to be separated from you! I promise not to make mistakes again. If I make mistakes, just leave. I promise not to ask you to stay, okay? Give me one last chance, the last time, just this time! "Shui Tian was silent, silent for a long time...
"Xiaotian, I love you, don't let me miss you just because I'm confused, okay?" Liu Erlong took another step forward anxiously, begging him not to push him away.
"I can't accept it, give me some time to think about it." Shuitian stretched out his hand to stop her from getting closer. Now that he didn't want to have close contact with her, he really had no choice but to say this to her.
Although I didn't hug him, I could tell that his attitude was a little shaken.
This was enough to make Liu Erlong happy. For a moment, she seemed to have lost her courage, and asked anxiously: "Then, can you please don't leave~, I promise to give you time to think, and I will never disturb you if you don't allow it. , until you figure it out.”
Shuitian looked up at her and saw persistence and attachment in her eyes.
Maybe she really loves herself, but Shuitian can no longer fully trust her, no matter what kind of guarantee she gives!
The choices she made not long ago proved that she couldn't let go of Yu Xiaogang.
You cannot test the future based on your current attitude. It is the nature of every woman to be fickle.
"Forget it, let me go out and relax. It's time to go home. I haven't seen my brother and the others for a long time." Shuitian shook his head and refused. He really missed his family from the bottom of his heart.
I want to go back and see how tall my two children have grown in the past few years, whether the elder is in good health, and whether my brother is still being tortured by his two wives every day~
Hearing this, Liu Erlong's eyes immediately lit up and he said excitedly: "I will accompany you back. I also want to go to the north. You have already said that you would take me back to see your relatives."
She looked at him expectantly. She really wanted to see the scenery in the north of the empire, where he was born and raised, and wanted to know everything about him.
Shuitian still decided to refuse: "Before you and I think clearly, we should meet less often. Although the Shui family is not exclusive, you should also understand my status in the family. It is not appropriate to take you there!"
After understanding what he meant, the woman he brought home must be his wife, and now he doesn't even want to be in the same room with him...
Liu Erlong lowered his head, finally eating the bitter pill.
It was really sad that he said this, but she was not qualified now, so she nodded feebly and said: "Then take this, don't refuse me, it was originally meant to be given to you, please accept it."
This belt is very exquisite, the eighteen gemstones are sparkling, and the color pattern matches him very well.
After much hesitation, Shuitian reached out and took the belt. He held it in his hand for a long time and could not regain his composure.
It really should belong to him. Before Yu Xiaogang came to Lanba Academy, everything about Liu Erlong could belong to him, and vice versa.
"Let me put it on for you." Liu Erlong smiled again. This was a good start.
Just let everything go over and let him fall in love with her again.
Shuitian said nothing and took off the belt engraved with the family crest in front of her.
Most soul masters' storage soul guides are belts, but there are also some rings, bracelets, necklaces, and even some earrings and bags.
Shuitian's original storage soul guide was a ring, which he hung around his neck as a pendant.
As for the hand, he originally planned to leave it to Liu Erlong. It would be best if the couple were similar.
He took out the simple wooden box and put away the belt engraved with the family crest. It deserves to be treated preciously.
As for the belt in his hand, he slowly put it on under Liu Erlong's expectant eyes.
The eighteen gems are even more dazzling on his body, with a shark pattern emerging in the center, and the surrounding wavy lines are slightly undulating like water waves.
This is indeed made of the hide of some kind of shark soul beast, and Shuitian can feel the fluctuations of water attribute soul power on it.
It really suits him, and he really likes this belt.
"It suits you very well. It looks good." Liu Erlong admired sincerely.
It seems that after wearing this belt, his overall temperament has improved a lot.
"Thank you~" he said softly.
This time Liu Erlong didn't stop him when he left the warehouse and followed him about ten meters behind.
Passing by Yu Xiaogang's place, the sounds inside couldn't escape their ears.
The doctor was boiling medicine. White smoke came out of the chimney on the roof, and bursts of medicinal fragrance wafted out.
The doctor treated his wound and told him to take more rest while preparing medicine and not to walk around unless necessary. He also asked him to prepare a pair of crutches as a backup and he could not walk for a long time within a month.
Liu Erlong felt a little uncomfortable hearing how badly his knee was injured, but she still followed Shuitian, keeping the distance at about ten meters. Nothing could stop her from chasing her lover.
Following him all the way to the teaching area of the college, the passing students saw them walking one after another and were confused. Some secretly lamented that love is too complicated.
Even though Yin Shu was injured, he did not forget to work and met with the two deans in the office.
He was stunned when he heard that Shuitian asked him to send someone to clean everything at the training ground tomorrow morning.
If Liu Erlong hadn't winked at him to indicate that things could turn around, he might have asked Shuitian where he wanted to go and followed his resignation.
If Shuitian was gone, his life would definitely be difficult for Yin Shu. Who in the whole college didn't know that Yin Shu was the most loyal Ma Zai of Vice President Shui Tian.
However, he still hesitated and asked: "Should those houses be demolished too? In fact, it's not a bad thing to keep them~"
Liu Erlong also answered: "What the audio director said is that I don't think it's necessary to dismantle it all, just take away the garbage."
"Demolish them all. I'll send you a message, or I can do it myself." Shuitian's expression was serious and his attitude was very determined.
Unless necessary, he didn't want to raze the training ground to the ground in a big way.
"Uh, my subordinates will make arrangements right now, and I promise not to leave anything behind." Yin Shu is very loyal as a younger brother. Seeing that his attitude showed that there was no need for discussion, he went out to find someone to make arrangements.
It is already afternoon now, and soon the sun will set and usher in the cool night.
They didn't eat anything all day long. Liu Erlong tried to invite: "Xiaotian, are you hungry? Let's go back and I will cook for you~"
"No, I'm not hungry."
After saying that, he left the office again. All the matters were dealt with, and all that was left was to wait for the three children to make a decision.
He verbally promised to go out to relax and calm down, temporarily deceiving Liu Erlong and himself.
Reluctantly, Liu Erlong followed him downstairs, and suddenly heard someone shouting for help, and quickly walked out of the office building faster.
When I came outside, I felt an extremely strong cold air, and large ice crystals had formed under Shuitian's feet.
Zhu Zhuqing stood next to Shuitian with a tired face, looking at the figure frozen in place with some helplessness.
She was chased and fled all the way back to the college. She happened to see Teacher Shuitian who had just walked out of the front building and hurriedly called him to help her.
The frozen person kept running, and Liu Erlong asked doubtfully: "What's wrong? Xiaotian, why did you freeze this child?"
Dai Mubai was so dumbfounded that he mustered up the courage to chase into the academy. Fortunately, no one stopped him, and he didn't expect to see Shuitian face to face!
He froze with just one look, and the bone-chilling chill made his soul tremble.
"What's wrong?" Shuitian also asked Zhu Zhuqing.
Zhu Zhuqing hesitated and didn't know how to speak. There were low discussions around him. The two of them ran so fast that they attracted many curious students.
Finally, she couldn't bear Dai Mubai being so embarrassed here, so she whispered: "Teacher, let him go first. I will explain to you later."
