Chapter 129: The Non-White Disaster, the Fierce and Heroic Lan You Zhu!
"Are you looking for your brother? Alas, I'm afraid it's only natural that he would accompany you. Poor me, our team of four has been reduced to just me, alone and forlorn! " Mo Fei Bai let out a long, mournful sigh, lifting his sleeve to pretend to wipe away tears from his eyes.
"If you really have nowhere to go, you can come with us to our place for now...", Lan You Rou's heart softened and she couldn't help but try to comfort him, after all the three of them had been through thick and thin together on this deserted island, and it didn't seem right to just leave him alone after completing their mission.
"Alright, it's settled then!", Before Lan You Ruo could finish speaking, Mo Fei Bai suddenly sprang up from the ground with a flip of his body, and looking at his excited appearance, where could any trace of sadness be seen?
"Alas, You Ruo, you're perfect in every way, but too kind-hearted! Bringing a wolf like him back to our place is no different from inviting a wolf into our home!", He Lian Nu shot a stern glance at the smug Mo Fei Bai, yet didn't stop him.
The three of them took a short rest, and then set off quickly on their journey. On the way here, they had the luxury of riding golden eagles, but now they didn't have such good treatment. To be honest, even if that golden eagle were to stop in front of him, Mo Fei Bai, who was afraid of heights, wouldn't dare get on it. Although the road was a bit far, the three of them had no other choice and could only hurry along with all their might, trying to return to their lodgings before sunset.
The inner courtyard of the Holy Soul Academy was extremely vast, perhaps due to the fact that there were too few students. As a result, the three people walked all the way without encountering a single person! Looking at the dense distribution of trees and the thick layer of fallen leaves that had accumulated under them for who knows how many years, Helianthus couldn't help but feel as if he was running through a primeval forest.
!
The three of them ran for several hours before finally arriving at the entrance of the inner courtyard. Mo Fei Bai was panting heavily, his hands on his knees, and refused to continue on foot. He Lian Nuo saw that Lan You Ruo's physical strength was also somewhat depleted, so he called over a spacious horse carriage, tossed a silver coin to the coachman, and the three of them comfortably got in.
"Ah, comfortable indeed! It's really true that one can't have too much of a good thing. Three consecutive tests and my muscles are all going to break! " Mo Fei Bai sprawled out on the side of the carriage, shouting with his mouth open, while He Lian Nuo felt a bit better but still had a sore back and waist. The three were only around ten years old after all, how could they take this kind of suffering? He Lian Nuo was a bit better off, having learned to adapt to everything from nine years of living in the forest, but Lan You Rou and Mo Fei Bai, who had been spoiled since childhood, really couldn't take it. Not long after getting on the carriage, Lan You Rou leaned against the corner and fell fast asleep, while Mo Fei Bai was already snoring loudly. He Lian Nuo saw this and smiled wryly, forcing himself to stay awake and taking off his long shirt to gently cover Lan You Rou's body.
"Kid, you should thank me for being kind-hearted. If it were someone else, they would have kicked you a few times already for sleeping so soundly!", He Lianuo said, shaking his fist at the sleeping Mo Fei Bai, but in the end, he still took out a piece of clothing from the Heavenly Gift Space to cover him with.
The carriage wheels rolled over the cobblestone pavement, accompanied by the sound of horseshoes clicking away, echoing loudly on the empty streets. By now, the sky had completely darkened, and there were only a few scattered pedestrians on the main street. To think that just a few days ago, the outskirts of Holy Soul Academy were bustling with activity until late at night! Looking at this desolate scene now, it's clear that most of those rowdy souls who used to drink and shout in the streets have probably been eliminated by now!
This grand test, out of tens of thousands of participants, only a hundred or so people truly made it to the end. Many who had left their mark here before have already set foot on their journey home, while the three people in the carriage are about to start another brilliant life here. This is fate - every corner may have countless people passing through, but only those who truly stay can create their own brilliance here. Some families rejoice, some grieve; life has always been full of inequalities, and it's precisely these inequalities that give rise to some extraordinary things.
"Master, we've arrived!", just as Helianuo was about to fall asleep with his eyes closed, the coachman quietly called out to wake him up. He lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked outside, and indeed they had already returned to the entrance of Zhang Fang's rented courtyard.
"These two guys, sleeping like dead pigs! ", He Lianuo jumped off the carriage, looked at Mo Feibai with a crystal clear drool at the corner of his mouth and Lan Youruo leaning against the carriage corner, sighed long, he gently held Lan Youruo in his arms, let the coachman help put Mo Feibai on his shoulder, because He Lianuo only had one left arm that could move, Mo Feibai could only hang softly on his shoulder, even so, the latter still showed no signs of waking up.
。
He Lianuo gently kicked open the courtyard door with his foot and walked in slowly. Before he could see the situation inside, a huge broom was spinning towards him under the dim moonlight.
He Lianuo, who was used to the stormy weather, would not be hit by this soft and fluffy broom. He slightly lowered his body and dodged it lightly.
"Oh no!", Helianno suddenly thought, he was so busy dodging the attack that he had forgotten about Mo Fei Bai on his shoulder. This slight movement wasn't big, but Mo Fei Bai was still flung out and heavily smashed onto the ground with a loud "thud".
"You rascals, do you think I'm a vegetarian?!", He Lianuo was about to bend down and help up Mo Feibai when a slender figure suddenly jumped over and raised the wooden stick in her hand high, heavily striking Mo Feibai who had fallen to the ground!
"Ah!!", with a miserable cry, Mo Fei Bai jumped up from the ground, covering his head, the woman's blow was ruthless and accurate, Mo Fei Bai's forehead had been hit into a fist-sized blood blister!
"Is it you? I knew it, you're the one who's been sending people to harass me with your lust for my beauty! Today you can't resist coming yourself! Look at me not hitting your head! ", The slender woman fiercely raised her wooden stick and desperately chased after Mo Fei Bai, poor Mo Fei Bai's martial arts skills were useless in this sudden situation, he could only hold his head and wildly run around the courtyard.
"Stop it, Lan Youzhu! Put down your hands!", Helian Nuo finally came to his senses and saw clearly that the robust woman holding a wooden stick was indeed Lan Youzhu. To be exact, Lan Youzhu had an unpleasant history with Mo Feibai, and in her eyes, Mo Feibai was a thorough scoundrel. As the saying goes, "when enemies meet, they see red", how could Lan Youzhu possibly let go of this opportunity? The wooden stick in her hand kept falling like raindrops, beating Mo Feibai until he cried out for his father and mother, wailing in misery.
"Alas, it's useless!", seeing that his shouting was ineffective, Helianuo helplessly sighed and hugged Lanyou, swiftly kicking the wooden stick out of Lanyou's hand.
"You little rascal, you dare to strike? Just wait and see... Ah, Helian?", Although the wooden stick in her hand was kicked flying, Lan Youzhu's fighting spirit remained undiminished. She wildly raised both hands and clawed fiercely at Helian Nuo, but just as her palms were about to scratch his face, she finally recognized him.
"Eldest sister Youzhuzhu, with such a fierce display, my elder brother will probably be scared away in the future! ", seeing Lan Youzhu stop her actions, He Lianuo couldn't help but tease, while being chased, Mo Feibai didn't know that the threat had been lifted and was still running wildly around the courtyard like a headless fly.
。
"Huh, old lady... how could I possibly scare him away! You've finally come back, what's going on?!", Lan Youzhu asked Lan Youruo, her eyes involuntarily scanning the doorway as if searching for something.
"Don't look anymore, Second Brother returned to Shenghun Academy and separated from us, saying he had something to do. I said, Sister Youzhu, it's only been a few days since we last saw each other, no need to be so anxious, right? But she didn't even care about You'rufei's life or death! ", He Lianuo chuckled, having long since noticed that Lan Youzhu had feelings for He Liansuo.
"Nonsense, if you had something on your mind, would you still be in the mood to chat with me? I've already figured out that Lan You is just asleep. But what about that guy, how did he end up here?", Lan Youzhu's face flashed a hint of disappointment, and she pretended not to care as she changed the subject.
"He's someone we met on this mission, although he's a bit of a lecher, his nature isn't all that bad. Since it was getting late, I brought him back to stay overnight. Just keep your distance from him and you'll be fine. By the way, looking at how you were just now, I'm sure we wouldn't have been bothered by those rascals if we weren't here these past few days? Don't worry, now that I'm back, no one will dare! I say, future second sister-in-law, haven't we gone a whole day without eating yet? Are you going to treat us or not?" Helian Nuo subconsciously swallowed his saliva, having eaten roasted meat on the deserted island for three days straight, he had been craving Lan Youzhu's cooking.
"Hmph, now you know I'm fine, right?" Lan Youzhu pretended to be angry, but in fact, her heart had already been delighted by He Lian'nuo's term of endearment "Second Sister". She helped He Lian'nuo carry the still sleeping Lan You'ruo into the room and then ran off to busy herself in the kitchen.
"I'm telling you, Xiao Bai, shouldn't you stop now?" After settling Lan You Ruo, He Lian Nu returned to the courtyard and saw Mo Fei Bai still dodging non-existent enemies with a loss of consciousness. She stifled her laughter and shouted loudly.
With a thud, Mo Fei Bai's legs went limp and he fell to the ground. He stared wide-eyed around him, his terrified expression evoking some sympathy from Helian Nuo.
"Peeping Tom, where did that... that incredibly frightening humanoid monster go?", Mo Fei Bai asked in a low voice, his usual suave demeanor nowhere to be seen as he raised his hand to touch the several blood clots on his head.
"Pervert, who are you calling a monster?!", Before Helianuo could respond, Lanyoutu, wearing an apron, was already charging towards Mo Feibai with a kitchen knife in hand, her eyes burning with flames...
"Ah......!!", Under the moonlight, a new round of miserable screams began...
