People in Douluo: Ice Phoenix does not fight or compete

Chapter 44: Thoughts

A new day of training began, or rather, it was a day when Xiao Wu was the only one suffering.

Xiao Wu was sweating in the rain. Shui Tian always forced her to train whether she was willing or not.

Occasionally Liu Erlong would come here to watch for a while, without disturbing him, just looking at him quietly.

This kind of time lasted until ten days later.

These short ten days seemed as long as ten months to Liu Erlong.

She found that the days without Shuitian were so hard to bear. It was not because of her physical need, but because the sudden departure of his company almost made her want to run to Shuitian's room at night.

During these ten days, she had not gone to see anyone from Shrek, and would stay away from Yu Xiaogang whenever she saw him from afar, just to make Shui Tian believe in her determination.

But has she really thought it through? If she really had that realization, why would she have to endure this torture as Shui Tian's wife?

She was standing in front of Zhu Zhuqing's door waiting. Although she was the dean of this college, she looked like a wronged girl guarding the door for her boy.

He felt a little bothered in his heart that the dark yellow treasure was priceless and should not have been given to Zhu Zhuqing.

She often put herself in the shoes of Shuitian's wife, and regarded everything Shuitian owned as the common property of the couple.

However, another idea suddenly popped up in her mind, which even scared her.

She actually thought that the treasure should be given to Tang San. The reason seemed not to be because of his talent, but...

This made Liu Erlong feel very uncomfortable. She already had her own ideas, and those ideas led to such thoughts.

Liu Erlong came back to her senses when she heard a faint sound in the room.

She was familiar with this voice. She had heard it before when Shui Tian was around...

The door was pushed open, and Shuitian walked out with a blank expression, "Thank you for your hard work~"

Liu Erlong felt a little comforted that he didn't seem to be tempted, but he felt more guilty for the sudden idea that came to his mind.

Without having time to think about his thanks, I hurriedly walked into the room and closed the door.

Inside the room, was Zhu Zhuqing, who was imprisoned by ice on the bed. Her face was flushed and she was moaning in a very ambiguous way.

This is the side effect of that thing. When Jiangzhu took it, she felt even worse than her. Liu Erlong saw it with her own eyes.

Next comes her mission. This is the first time Shui Tian has come to her on her own initiative in ten days. She will take good care of this girl no matter what.

Waiting outside the room, Shui Tian did not expect that Zhu Zhuqing would reach the level 30 threshold so quickly. It seemed that she spent all her time practicing except for the necessities of life.

Her diligence is really admirable.

Time passed quietly, and neither Xiao Wu nor Oscar asked him why he was still waiting outside the door after dark.

After they bowed to each other, they returned to their rooms and played dumb. In the past ten days, they had noticed that there was some kind of rift in the relationship between Liu Erlong and Shui Tian. In short, something was very wrong.

They didn't intend to tell anyone about this. They just pretended they knew nothing and focused on studying to reduce unnecessary trouble.

This was a very difficult night for Zhu Zhuqing. If it weren't for the ice that allowed her to maintain her last bit of sanity, she didn't know how outrageous things she would have done.

Finally, he could no longer bear the torture and fell asleep, allowing the energy to run through his body.

She was not awakened until the next afternoon by Liu Erlong.

The smell in the room when she woke up made her face change, and she felt even more ashamed when she found out that the smell came from her own body.

Liu Erlong, who was well prepared, opened the skylight to dispel the smell and prepared a bath for her. Zhu Zhuqing was also very touched that the dean treated a student like this, but she knew that Shui Tian must have invited her here.

After making sure that she had clean clothes to change into, Liu Erlong burned the skirt that was stained with impurities into ashes.

When I walked out of the room, I found that Shuitian had been guarding here.

She knew that Shuitian was protecting his students, but it felt really good to see him as soon as she opened the door.

Although they were only one step away, Liu Erlong didn't know how to start the conversation, so she could only find a topic to talk about with Zhu Zhuqing. "This child's physique has improved a lot after taking your whale glue. After absorbing the third soul ring, his soul power should be greatly improved."

"I know."

Shui Tian's answer was very brief. He had thought a lot over the past ten days. He would be lying to himself if he said he didn't want to continue being with Liu Erlong. But he would not let himself become a clown. He would not give in until he was sure that Liu Erlong had really let go of Yu Xiaogang.

Such a perfunctory answer made Liu Erlong feel sad. She reached out to grab his hand, completely ignoring Oscar who was under the shade of the tree and Xiao Wu who had just sat down to rest.

When his hand was touched, Shui Tian silently took a step forward to avoid it.

This step was too far away, so far that Liu Erlong could hardly see any hope.

Zhuakong's hands fell down weakly. He was not ready to accept himself now because those unintentional words hurt him. Perhaps he saw through that there was another name in his heart.

"I'm going to take her to Sunset Forest tomorrow. Can I leave this place to you while I'm not around?" Turning around and looking at Liu Erlong, Shui Tian gave his own test.

For ten days, Shrek's people wanted to come here to see these three children and wandered outside for a long time, but they had to give up because of him.

There are two huge trees beside the path leading here, each with a wooden sign hanging on it.

That is an absolute ban. No one except the two deans and the students is allowed to enter and disturb the students' practice.

It wasn't that Shui Tian wanted to hide those special training equipment, he was really annoyed by the students who wanted to join in the fun, so he made this rule.

This time Liu Erlong nodded without hesitation and said, "Don't worry, I will supervise these two children well."

But Shuitian shook his head and pointed to the entrance, saying everything.

Following the direction of his finger, Liu Erlong understood what he meant, and her heart tightened. As expected, he didn't want Shrek to contact these children.

But she still said, "I know what to do."

She felt that Flanders and others were easy to talk to, and would understand the academy rules even if they asked her for help, so she agreed without hesitation.

Seeing this, Shui Tian finally smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work last night. Go eat something and have a good sleep."

"Hmm~"

Liu Erlong finally saw his smile again. Even though she still wanted to talk to him some more, she obediently left, looking back every few steps.

When I looked back, all I saw was Shuitian’s smile, until her figure disappeared from the scene.

The smile stopped abruptly, and the eight soul rings appeared and disappeared quickly, and the Phoenix soul seal that flashed in the sky was as if it had never appeared.

The only evidence that he had released his martial spirit was the sword finger aimed at the top of a tree and the black spirit ring light that had not yet completely dissipated.

The spiritual fluctuations in the space were very strong, so strong that Xiao Wu looked up at Shui Tian in horror.

On the branch at the top of the big tree, a small diamond-shaped ice crystal illuminates everything here.

It is the fusion product of the sixth soul skill, Ice Mirror, and spiritual energy.
