"Why did they leave before we came back? You really don't understand such a simple truth?"
"Here are two Heroic Spirits, the direct descendants of the Ten Evils, and me, the rising leader who has gained a great reputation in Penglai."
"Even if it's the Dragon Clan, do they really have the guts to confront us head-on under the rules and regulations of Penglai Academy?"
"Or does he just need to stimulate your self-esteem so that you can take a bite after you voluntarily withdraw from the group and become isolated?"
Tao Rusu looked directly at Bai Yu: "Of course I understand this simple truth."
She clenched her fists and tensed her body. "But even though I understand, I don't want to become a despicable person."
"What you said are all reasons why I shouldn't have left, but they can't be an excuse for me to ignore this tragic situation. Even if you can forgive me this time, what about next time? What about the time after that?"
“Patience is the height of the sky, trust is the weight of wings, when they are gone, I will fall to pieces!”
"So before it became irreversible, I took the initiative to leave. At least it was still decent at this time."
Wanting to do something and being able to do it are two different things.
Bai Yu licked his teeth, turned his head sideways and then turned back: "I didn't expect that after knowing each other for so long, you only have this much confidence in me."
Tao Rusu couldn't answer this question.
It's not that she doesn't have enough confidence in Bai Yu. As early as when he jumped down without hesitation after she fell into the shadow world, she knew very well what kind of person Bai Yu was.
But she knew that sooner or later, if she went down, she would cause a conflict with Su Ruoli, and then she would be defeated miserably, and she would not be able to defeat Su Ruoli.
When she agreed to Mu Yaoxi's proposal, she realized that she still liked staying here.
The decency was the decency with which she left calmly.
Staying there for a moment longer would make her even more unbearable and weak.
Just when she had given up completely and Bai Yu could not find any better reason to persuade her, she heard these words.
The person who spoke was Su Ruoli.
"What if it's not about involvement, but about mutual exploitation?"
Su Ruoli had already walked into the living room and cut up the fruit plate and placed it on the coffee table. She wiped her hands with a tissue and said, "We really don't have a strong enough emotional foundation, so I'm not convinced enough to keep you here. So, let's not play the emotional card and just talk about something adults like to talk about..."
"The world is bustling with activity, all seeking profit."
"You have dragon blood, and we just need to find a way to enter the Dragon Country."
"Is this reason enough for you to give up the idea of moving out?"
Sometimes, sincerity is the key.
Su Ruoli proposed the idea of a community of interests based on mutual benefit, which is obviously more reliable than playing the emotional card.
Mu Yaoxi asked in confusion: "Are you going to Dragon Country? Why?"
"We need to investigate Ao Xuanyue's disappearance." Su Ruoli said frankly, "This disappearance is directly related to my sister Su Ruoji's disappearance. Dragon Country has always been xenophobic, so we need to find a key to unlock it."
Tao Rusu turned her head with a strange expression, as if she was trying to tell whether this was true or not from the expressions of the two people.
"It's true." Su Ruoli said, "Should we call it a coincidence, or should we all be accurately grasped by God's big data? This kind of lie is meaningless. A trip to Qianchen Society will make you clear."
Tao Rusu recalled: "I've heard about Ao Xuanyue's story."
"It's just the Dragon Country. I haven't been in there yet."
She looked hesitant: "I can't guarantee that I can take you in. There are too many variables."
Su Ruoli said, "It's rare for a dragon girl to appear. Do you think we will let you go?"
Tao Rusu didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "So, this is what it means to take advantage of each other?"
"I prefer to interpret it as a win-win situation." Su Ruoli made a scissors gesture: "The dragon clan is very powerful. Smart people should learn to work together and cooperate."
Tao Rusu pursed her lips. She knew that Su Ruoli's words were based on rational judgment and she didn't want to make things difficult for Bai Yu.
In fact, she herself has already compromised in her heart.
Su Ruoli couldn't convince her, only she herself could convince her.
Even if she only had value to be exploited, even if it was such a naked and utilitarian relationship... as long as she could maintain the false friendship, she was willing to swallow the humiliation and meanness.
But inferiority is still engraved in the deepest part of my soul.
After all, she is...
"Actually, so am I."
Out of the blue, Bai Yu suddenly said something that was incomprehensible.
Mu Yaoxi looked puzzled: "What did you say?"
Bai Yu repeated calmly, "She and I are the same kind of people."
"I am also a direct descendant of the Ten Evils."
"My grandfather, Bai Potian, was ranked tenth among the Ten Evils, and his title was Tyrannosaurus."
"My mother, Bei Ming Yao, is the legitimate daughter of the Bei Ming family. She has been imprisoned by the Bei Ming family for many years. The Bei Ming family and I have a hostile relationship."
He looked at Tao Rusu, who was stunned and astonished, patted her shoulder gently, and said with a smile: "Don't you think we are quite similar?"
Chapter 312 Hongmen Banquet
Bai Yu suddenly revealed his identity.
Mu Yaoxi had just picked up a slice of orange and was about to put it in her mouth when her movements froze.
what?
Ten evil direct descendants?
The son of the Beiming family's legitimate daughter, doesn't that mean he is a direct descendant of the Beiming family?
I do not know how?
She thought that the files she had seen were all there was to it, but she didn't expect that the people she was trying to bring into the White Tiger Hall were actually direct descendants of the Ten Evils?
Tao Rusu's expression went through several rounds of changes.
There are surprises, astonishments, doubts, puzzles, and a lingering joy that wells up deep in my heart.
It can be said that I am extremely confused.
She opened her mouth repeatedly, never thinking that in such a situation as hers, there would be people in the world who were in the same situation as her.
"You..." Tao Rusu hesitated to speak, not knowing how to comfort the other party. She rubbed her face, really not wanting to laugh at the other party's serious confession.
But she couldn't help it.
It wasn't a mockery, but happiness... It's also weird to say this, she wasn't happy because the other person's family background was weird, but because she was happy because it was similar to her.
It's like an animal dying of loneliness has discovered another of its kind.
Bai Yu doesn't have any psychological burden on this. Once he knows the other party's secrets, he should exchange some secrets to be sincere. Sincerity is a surefire skill.
"I was only informed of this before I came to Penglai. To be honest, I have mixed feelings... and the complicated family relationship isn't my fault. It's just that suddenly there are more things I have to do."
Mu Yaoxi reacted: "So this is why you don't want to join the Chuanwu Club?"
"How did you know?"
"I heard about it from the Refining Society."
Martial arts and weapon refining are inseparable, and their relationship has always been very good. The news soon reached the ears of the upper echelons of the weapon refining society.
Mu Yaoxi initially didn't understand why Bai Yu was so hostile to Bei Mingque, and even wanted to persuade him. Now she understood that there was no way to persuade him, as it was someone else's family matter...
Bai Yu's surname is Bai, but he has half Bei Ming family blood flowing in his body.
Mu Yaoxi sighed depressedly, thinking that he had come here for nothing today.
Su Ruoli did not react too much to Bai Yu's confession of his life story. She felt that the other party would tell it sooner or later. Although it would not be publicized in a high-profile manner, there would at least be a legitimate reason.
When there is conflict with the Beiming family in the future, his background will be exposed sooner or later.
Blood ties are unbreakable shackles, this is true for Tao Rusu and Bai Yu as well.
This is the sorrow of blood.
Bai Yu also extended his hand to Tao Rusu. "Look, we're so similar. There's hardly anyone else in the entire world in a similar situation. Would you like to consider a win-win cooperation? I'll help you resolve the dragon clan's troubles, and I hope you'll help me in the same way in the future. This is a very good deal. If you miss this opportunity, you'll never get it again."
Before he could say anything else, Tao Rusu had already held his hand.
The girl suppressed a laugh, then cleared her throat and nodded modestly, "I do."
Bai Yu smiled with satisfaction.
Subconsciously, I wonder if these three words could be replaced with "I promise" or "I agree"...
He felt like he was being taken advantage of, but he had no evidence.
His intuition told him it was best not to delve into it.
Miss Su was quietly drinking her tea. A slip of the tongue at this moment would have serious consequences, especially...
Bai Yu glanced at Mu Yaoxi, and the light bulb was still there.
Mu Yaoxi looked around sharply and muttered, "Who is saying bad things about me in their heart?"
Tao Rusu won't leave, and today's commotion is over.
Her mood became very good and she took the initiative to start cooking.
Mu Yaoxi was unwilling to miss this opportunity to improve her favorability, and volunteered to find someone to repair it. Her efficiency was indeed quite high, and soon students from Tiandi Academy came to repair it.
They were obviously a group of formation masters, and they were very familiar with this kind of work. Their movements were extremely skillful, and they completed the repair and inspection of the pipeline in just half an hour. The fee was only eight credits, which was quite fair.
Bai Yu complained: "Why would a formation master be willing to do this kind of work?"
"Because he can earn two credits and performance points by taking this trip, of course he's happy to do it." Mu Yaoxi said frankly, "Even if he doesn't do it, there are plenty of people who would be eager to do it. It just requires a certain level of technical skills, which most sophomores can easily handle."
"Some small talents are of great use, right?"
"As long as he can earn credits, that's all he needs. He doesn't care about that. It's just a work-study program." Mu Yaoxi raised her index finger and waved it, "Seven out of ten senior engineers in Daxia have professional certificates for formation masters, because many large-scale projects require the use of formations for reinforcement and preventive treatment."
"For example, it was not uncommon for construction teams to dig through the ground and damage national cables and sewer pipes. With a formation master, the damage and losses can be minimized. All the formation master needs to do is coat the materials here with a layer of formation materials specified by Daxia. When other construction teams come here to explore, they will quickly notice the location of underground optical cables and wires."
Bai Yu thought for a moment and said, "Isn't this just a human version of a 3D modeler?"
But it is definitely a good thing for the construction company, as they don’t have to hang a sign saying “Guess what we dug up today”.
"Array masters are very useful in engineering. If they can repair gas pipelines, then sewer pipes, drainage pipes, and large intestine pipes can all be repaired."
"Is there any practical connection between colon tubes and engineering?" Bai Yu suddenly became curious. "Then do they need to go to the construction site to carry out the plastering?"
Mu Yaoxi suddenly fell silent. She glanced at Bai Yu, her eyes filled with confusion, dissatisfaction, and a complaint of "Why did you point it out?" She sighed and stopped talking.
When it comes to dust removal, the topic becomes boring.
As expected, everyone who works as a civil engineer on a construction site has to deal with plastering... and there is no escape from this.
Fortunately, Su Ruoli came to ease the awkwardness and took the initiative to ask, "It's almost time for dinner. Do you want to stay for a quick meal?"
"Yes!" Mu Yaoxi agreed decisively. After working for so long, it would be too much of a loss if she didn't have a meal.
Before eating, Bai Yu went to check on Qin Xuezao and confirmed her condition: "She's still asleep... We can't rule out the possibility that she's been possessed and her soul has been damaged."
Tao Rusu asked with a guilty conscience, "This is going to be even worse. Should we go find a doctor from Danding College to see me? I'll go now..."
"What's the hurry?" Bai Yu held his job: "When it comes to souls, is there anyone more professional than the two heroic spirits?"
Their souls survive reincarnation without wear and tear.
"Don't worry." Su Ruoli said, "She is fighting with the sword in her dream and currently has the upper hand."
Mu Yaoxi: "..."
She lowered her head and ate without saying a word, too embarrassed to say that she couldn't see anything.
She quietly glanced at Su Ruoli and thought, since they are all of heroic blood, why do you know more than me?
Am I fake? But I awakened earlier than you did, didn't I?
It was a little strange, but she couldn't put her finger on it.
She also didn't think that Su Ruoli was of the bloodline of a superior heroic spirit, because she didn't feel any strong pressure from him.
She had once faced a high-ranking Heroic Spirit. As a member of the same Heroic Spirit bloodline, the oppressive feeling from the adult wearing silk gloves was suffocating.
