Elf: I'm Just a Commentator

I just wanted to come and take a look around, but who knew I would run into Luo Guan's line of fire. If I had known this would happen, I would have done what Lin Xuan said before and set off in the morning. I would already be in Jinhui City now, and I could even have avoided Luo Guan.

"What else could it be? Chang Ming called me before, and I asked him about your reaction. I knew as soon as I heard it that you were going to cause trouble!"

Luo Guan said seriously.

"It wasn't us, it was my senior sister!"

Lin Xuan corrected him in this way, so that he wouldn't get beaten up later.

As for Bai Yao, she gave Lin Xuan a look as if he were a traitor.

I was just thinking Lin Xuan was loyal, how despicable!

"Even if it weren't your business, I would still have come here. It was arranged by the Alliance."

Luo Guan glanced at Lin Xuan and Bai Yao with a hint of helplessness, thinking that the two of them were a perfect match. Each of them was enough to give him a headache, and together they were simply going to be a force to be reckoned with.

"So...there really is something going on here?"

Lin Xuan asked, and Luo Guan nodded, then said to Lin Xuan and the others:

"So you should go back quickly and head straight back to Jinhui City tomorrow morning, so I won't worry."

"No way, I've come all this way, how can I come empty-handed..."

Before Bai Yao could finish speaking, Luo Guan slapped her back. However, Luo Guan hesitated for a moment, then finally said:

"It's not that you can't come along, but you have to agree to a few conditions."

Chapter 324 The Incarnation of the North

I can't guarantee I can do what you say, but I'll at least agree!

Upon hearing Luo Guan's words, Bai Yao immediately raised her head and spoke. Luo Guan didn't immediately understand the meaning behind her words. He nodded, thinking that this girl was finally willing to listen to him this once.

But after a little thought, I realized something was wrong.

So you just planned to listen and then came out, right?

Without saying a word, Luo Guan slapped Bai Yao on the forehead again, then said seriously:

"You can come with me, but you have to stay with me and don't wander off, understand?"

"I heard."

"I heard!"

The two answered almost simultaneously. They were somewhat relieved about Lin Xuan, but it was hard to say about Bai Yao. Based on Luo Guan's understanding of her, what she just said was definitely not just empty talk.

I'm afraid she'll be the first one to get into trouble, so I gave Lin Xuan a word of advice.

"You keep an eye on her then."

Luo Guan said this to Lin Xuan, and Lin Xuan nodded in agreement.

"I'm the senior sister, why did you let Lin Xuan watch over me?"

Bai Yao pouted, somewhat dissatisfied, and said, "Whether in terms of strength or seniority, I'm Lin Xuan's senior sister!"

But Luo Guan ignored her. After saying this, he walked directly in the direction Lin Xuan and the other person had originally gone, saying as he did so:

"Then it's settled. If any problems arise... By the way, Lin Xuan, did you finish that task I assigned you—soaking in ice water for several hours?"

Luo Guan brought up the matter seemingly unintentionally, and Lin Xuan's lips twitched slightly, but she immediately replied:

"I will definitely support Senior Sister Bai Yao!"

Lin Xuan was elbowed by Bai Yao when she said this, but compared to going into the water, Lin Xuan felt that she could endure it.

Luo nodded, and then the two followed in his footsteps, walking forward.

"Teacher, where are we going?"

Bai Yao asked Luo Guan, who was in front of him.

"Go find a guy."

Luo Guan simply replied, without slowing his pace at all.

"Human? Or... a Pokémon?"

Lin Xuan frowned and asked, but it seemed unlikely that either of them would work.

This place is off-limits at this time; only teachers are allowed in. Even Lin Xuan and his group could only sneak in, and they would be kicked out if they were discovered.

Even if we've arranged to meet, there's no need to come here.

As for Pokémon, that's even more impossible. Lin Xuan and his group have already taken care of most of the Pokémon here. A few that slipped through the net are no big deal, and there's no need for Luo Guan to come personally.

"you guess?"

Lin Xuan: ...

Are you a child or am I a child? Why are you guessing?

"It's a Pokémon, but... it's a bit special."

Luo Guan's words just now seemed to be just a whim to tease Lin Xuan and the others, and he quickly gave a reply.

"Pokémon? Are there any Pokémon here that you need to handle, teacher?"

Bai Yao yawned, her hands behind her head. Normally she should be asleep by now, but the excitement of the adventure had suppressed her drowsiness. However, with Luo Guan talking, it was like a hypnotic device, making Bai Yao feel sleepy.

"I probably won't have to lift a finger, but... just in case, I should be careful."

"Are there such dangerous Pokémon here?"

Lin Xuan asked again, "The guy who needs Luo Guan to take action personally must be incredibly strong. He must know the situation here, so why did he send so many trainers over before?"

Furthermore, there don't seem to be any trainers going missing or being attacked by powerful Pokémon.

"That guy isn't dangerous, so I don't need to do anything."

Luo Guan answered Lin Xuan's question and stopped in his tracks, because the ice ahead had broken and they could not pass through.

"There have been too many Pokémon appearing these past few days, and they are all very powerful, so it's inevitable that they will cause damage."

Lin Xuan explained to Luo Guan, who nodded and bent down to look into the lake. Lin Xuan and Bai Yao curiously approached, but found nothing unusual.

Lin Xuan glanced at Eevee, but Eevee shook her head directly. Even with her psychic powers, this place was just ordinary lake water.

Under the watchful eyes of Bai Yao and Lin Xuan, Luo Guan reached out and plunged his hand into the lake, then scooped up some water and examined it for a long time.

Impatient Bai Yao also squatted down and, just like Luo Guan, scooped up the lake water with her hands, looking it over from all sides.

"It's nothing, it's very clean! There's nothing there."

Bai Yao asked, puzzled, "What's so special about this that Luo has been watching for so long?"

"It's so clean, so incredibly clean. The water here has never been this clean before."

Luo Guan spread his fingers, letting the water slide down them, and stood up, saying something completely unrelated.

"This place is very close to Jinhui City, and it's a shortcut to Jinhui City. It's also an excellent training ground. I've been here many times before, so I'm very familiar with the situation here."

Many of the cultivation experiences that Luo Guan gave Lin Xuan were actually his own summaries and personal experiences from his youth. As for what the Ice Lake used to be like, he knew very little about it.

This place has been like this since before he was born, but it seems to have changed a bit now.

"Too clean?"

Lin Xuan was taken aback when she heard Luo Guan's words. If it was an elf with the ability to purify water...

"guessed?"

Luo Guan turned around and saw Lin Xuan, who was lost in thought after her initial shock, and Bai Yao, who still looked completely bewildered.

Bai Yao's bewilderment was within his expectations. This guy didn't usually study myths and history, while Lin Xuan was a researcher and would know a little about the records related to Pokémon.

However, Luo Guan did not expect that Lin Xuan could make such a connection so quickly.

"Tapujin? Or Suicune?"

Lin Xuan could only think of these two Pokémon. Suicune's abilities are well-known, and Tapu Fini's Purifying Water is said to be able to purify the soul, so it naturally has its own special abilities.

Both of these are water-type mythical beasts.

"Capozia is the guardian deity of the Alola region, how could it possibly come here?"

Luo Guan smiled and said to Lin Xuan, but Lin Xuan also noticed that Luo Guan only denied the first part of his conjecture, and did not mention the latter part about Suiki.

"So it's Suijun?"

"Yes, the embodiment of the North Wind seems to have blown here."

Luo Guan turned back to look ahead, while Bai Yao tilted her head, deciding it was better not to get involved in their conversation, otherwise she might expose her true nature as a poor student.

She had heard of Shui Jun, but that was all she knew. After all, she was always busy training, so she didn't have time to learn about such unrealistic things.

Whether it's Suicune or Zapdos, in Bai Yao's eyes they are just slightly stronger Pokémon, and he probably won't have much of a chance to encounter them in his lifetime.

As for if they were to meet... she felt that it would be easier to understand each other by fighting.

"Is Suijun here?"

Lin Xuan was deeply shocked by what Luo Guan said. Although he had come into contact with legendary Pokémon like Zapdos because of Xiao Dian, this was probably the closest he had ever come to a truly legendary Pokémon.
