Chapter 111: The Embarrassing Situation That Can't Be Avoided!
Seeing Lan You's icy expression, He Lianuo suddenly felt a chill run down his spine. To be honest, although Lan You and he had never gotten along, they didn't exactly view each other as enemies either, at most just bickering on a daily basis. But looking at Lan You's current demeanor, He Lianuo had no doubt that if he didn't resist, Lan You would definitely kill him!
"Alright, it seems that the two of you have more important things to attend to than we do! In that case, I'll just step aside and let you two resolve your issues. Heli, don't make me say this, but you'd better work on mending your relationship with your partner!" Mo Fei Bai was about to continue when Heli Nuo punched the air in his direction, stuck out his tongue, and ran off into the distance.
"Follow me!" Lan You said in a tone devoid of emotion, and immediately turned to walk into the depths of the dense forest. He Lianuo felt a bit apprehensive, but had no choice but to closely follow behind him.
After walking for a long time, Lan You finally stopped on an open plain and turned around to look at He Lianuo who was following her. In a calm tone, she said: "Do you know what is most important for a woman?"
"What?!", Hellen was shocked in her heart, "This girl won't make me marry her just because I peeked at her while she was bathing, will she? This is too much! Just being seen once and she must marry me, isn't this a bit too childish? And, I...I'm not even prepared yet!"
But most importantly, I really didn't see anything clearly at all!
"For a woman, the most important thing is chastity!", seeing He Lianuo didn't respond for a long time, Lan You said it as if she was answering herself, indeed, for this extremely traditional woman, chastity sometimes is more important than life itself.
It wasn't about forcing marriage after all! He let out a sigh of relief, tidied up his hair and tried to make his tone sound sincere: "Uh, Youwu, you might have misunderstood. I just happened to be swimming there too and didn't expect to run into you! Yeah, it was just a coincidence! And at that time, it was pitch black, so I didn't see anything! This is purely a misunderstanding, but I'm willing to apologize!" It wasn't that He Lianuo wasn't being honest, it's just that the truth of the matter was too embarrassing. He didn't have the courage to admit in front of Youwu that he had gone to peek at her while she was bathing!
"Is that so? If I happened to kill you right here today, no one would blame me for it, would they? And after killing you, I can apologize to you, but by then, you probably won't have the chance to hear it!" Lan You Ruo slowly pulled out a soft whip from her sleeve, and it was clear that she was truly enraged!
"You're right, I admit it was my fault, but... must you be so ruthless?" Helianuo's words lacked conviction. This matter was originally his mistake, and Lan You Ruo having the heart to kill him wasn't strange at all.
"Stop spouting nonsense! From the moment you arrived here, you were already a dead man!", Lan You's slender eyebrows rose as she swiftly swung her long whip, and in an instant, more than a dozen blue water pillars flashed around He Lian's body, binding his hands and feet.
Seeing Helian's desperate attempt to break free, Lanyu smiled slightly and said disdainfully: "Don't waste your energy, this Water Blue Spell Array was able to trap even the Soul Tester back then. It just requires a long time of preparation beforehand and needs someone to enter its attack range to take effect. After leaving the water pool last night, I rushed here to set up the spell array. I didn't expect you to be so careless and get caught by me so easily!"
"Ah, I see!", Helianuo struggled for a long time, but those water pillars were like cow tendons, the more he struggled, the tighter they got. Actually, before this, Helianuo had always been surprised that Lanyu could pass the test of the soul tester, knowing that with her cultivation level, it was impossible to contend with the soul tester. At this moment, Lanyu explained and only then did he understand, that day Lanyu had used the Water Blue Formation to trap the soul tester!
"Heleno, I used to think you were just a bit annoying but still a decent person at heart. But yesterday I found out that you're even more shameless than Mo Fei Bai! Fine, I'll start by ruining your eyes and let you experience the pain of not being able to see the light."
"!", Lan You Ruo's eyes had unknowingly shed tears, she loudly shouted, the soft whip in her hand flashed like lightning towards Helian Nuo's right eye!
"Enough!", just as Helianuo closed his eyes in despair, a furious voice suddenly rang out. With a loud crack, the soft whip of Lanyou was swung to one side and heavily lashed onto a large tree, leaving deep scars!
He Lian's eyes widened as she looked up to find that the person standing in front of her was actually Mo Fei Bai!
"Mo Fei Bai, get out of my way! You're not a good thing either. If you don't leave quickly, I won't mind killing you together!" Lan You Ruo's emotions had clearly lost control. Her personality was originally introverted, and she suddenly experienced such a thing. Although He Lian Nuo was only a ten-year-old child, she herself was only fourteen years old. The chastity education she received daily had already taken root in her mind. She was not Lan You Zhu, but an introverted and stubborn little girl who wanted to protect herself!
"I admit, I'm not a good thing, and I also want to confess that yesterday's matter, I not only have a share, but it was actually started by me! However, I didn't expect your reaction would be so big, nor did I expect you'd think of killing He Lian Xi! Although our relationship isn't good on ordinary days, as a man, I couldn't just watch him being killed by you! If you really can't swallow this, then come at me!" Mo Fei's expression was unprecedentedly solemn, it was clear that he was serious this time!
"What? You...", suddenly realizing the truth, Lan You seemed to be at a loss for what to do next. If Mo Fei Bai hadn't appeared, she might have really killed He Lian Nuo in a fit of rage. For some reason, after hearing Mo Fei Bai tell the truth, her anger dissipated greatly, and although the whip was still in her hand, she couldn't bring herself to strike again.
"This guy, has he suddenly had a change of heart?", He Lianuo looked at Mo Fei Bai with suspicion, who was blocking his way. In his impression, Mo Fei Bai should be a sinister and cunning little rascal who would stop at nothing, but at the critical moment, Mo Fei Bai stood up for him, and He Lianuo had to say that now he didn't dislike him as much as before!
"What's going on, so secretive, and yet behind my back as the captain!", Just as the scene was falling into an awkward silence, He Lian Shuo suddenly appeared. He first casually dispelled the water blue magic array that had bound He Lian Nuo, then patted Mo Fei Bai's shoulder. Seeing that none of the three people responded, He Lian Shuo smiled and walked to Lan You Ruo's side, stroking her head and saying softly: "Hey, who made our young mistress from the Lan family so angry? Look at your face, it's almost as if you're about to cry like a kitten! Old Three, was it you? This time I'll let you off, but next time, be careful or I'll beat your butt! Before he left, You Zhang had specially entrusted you to take care of You Ruo, have you forgotten?"
"I haven't forgotten, I haven't forgotten......" He Lian smiled wryly and the appearance of He Lianchu somehow eased his awkwardness. He stole a glance and found that Lan You's emotions seemed to have stabilized a lot, only then did he let out a long sigh of relief.
。
"Alright, it seems like everyone has rested enough. Let's continue on our journey then! We must find a safe place to rest before nightfall!"
Mo Feibai responded with a sound, and ran to the front to lead the way. According to previous arrangements, Lan You Ruo should have walked in the middle of the team with He Lian Nuo, but this time Lan You Ruo insisted on being at the back with He Lian Shuo. He Lian Nuo knew she wanted to avoid awkwardness and didn't force her, after all, even he himself felt a bit uncomfortable facing Lan You Ruo!
The four of them hurried along the road at a much faster pace than before, and Mo Fei Bai was indeed very familiar with the terrain. Before sunset, he found an excellent place to set up camp, and the four of them began to bustle about according to their previous deployment.
He Lianuo casually walked up to Mo Fei Bai's side, speaking in a low tone that only the two of them could hear: "I haven't settled accounts with you yet! Why did you lead me to the water pool last night and then sneak away? And why did you take my clothes? You'd better give me an explanation that can convince me, or else..."
"Or are you going to kill me? You're not as cruel as that little girl, are you? If I hadn't been here today, your one eye wouldn't be intact!" Mo Fei Bai carelessly brushed aside the weeds, completely disregarding He Lian Nu's threat!
"You still have the face to say that if it weren't for you, I wouldn't have offended You Ruo at all. Now look, she won't even talk to me! Originally our relationship was just so-so, now it's like we're sworn enemies! What can be done?" Upon hearing this, He Lian Nu suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness. For someone as stubborn as Mo Fei Bai, he really didn't have any way to deal with him.
Mo Fei stood up straight, looked at He Lian Nu who had a helpless expression, and then sneered: "You're still a big man, how can you be so hesitant? Can't you just go over there and talk things out with her? Anyway, she won't shout to kill you now!"
"But... but..."
"What's going on? Are you afraid to call her over? I'll help you!" Mo Fei Bai turned his head with a enthusiastic expression and loudly shouted towards Lan You Ruo: "You Ruo, come quickly, He Lian has something to say to you!"
"Ah...", He Lian Nuo reacted and wanted to stop him, but it was already too late. Mo Fei Bai had long since run to one side, while Lan You Ruo, on the other hand, slowly walked towards him...
