Darkness Falls on the Luofu

"Ha?"

Bai Luoming listened to Jingliu's words with some doubt. Was this guy really that eager to take on disciples?

If I remember correctly, this was the first time he and Jingliu had met.

He couldn't help but think of certain taboo topics, such as master and disciple... For example, if he didn't agree to Jingliu accepting him as a disciple, Jingliu would beat him until he knelt down and then brutally treat him like a slave.

In the end, he collapsed on the bed, looking utterly defeated. Jingliu, however, was relentless. Finally, he died amidst endless exploitation, filled with humiliation and resentment.

This was simply because he had refused Jingliu's invitation to become his disciple.

Thinking of this, Bai Luoming shuddered and cursed himself for suppressing himself to such an extent, for thinking such base things.

Jingliu saw that Bai Luoming remained silent for a long time, his expression indifferent, as if he didn't care about Bai Luoming's reaction at all.

However, her tightly clenched hands betrayed that her heart was not as calm as her expression suggested.

At this moment, Jingliu secretly thought that she had indeed been too hasty in meeting him so soon, even though it was her long-cherished wish.

But if Bai Luoming disagrees, she might beat him until he kneels, then take him away and use him as a scapegoat!

Despite her thoughts, Jingliu maintained a calm expression, waiting for Bai Luoming's answer. However, as time passed, the atmosphere around her grew increasingly tense.

Bailu watched as Jingliu uttered those words, and the two fell silent simultaneously, feeling incredibly awkward.

As for the owner of the previous stall, she had already cured him with a few words and he was now hiding in a corner, contacting his relative who worked for the Cloud Knights.

In her mind, one was someone she had just met but who made a good impression, and the other was an older sister who often took care of her and bought her snacks. So Bailu spoke up to smooth things over, saying:

"Aha, the weather's really nice today. Everyone's here looking around, it's not good for us to just stay here. How about we find somewhere to eat and drink, and have a good chat?"

Upon hearing this, Jingliu slowly turned her head to look at the crowd of onlookers. As a tough woman who had fought her way out of the battlefield, she was a true iron-willed warrior.

Even with the black silk covering her eyes, her gaze still carried an extremely strong sense of oppression.

Wherever Jingliu's gaze passed, everyone watching retreated, not daring to meet his eyes.

Seeing this, Jingliu slowly withdrew his gaze, fixing it once again on Bai Luoming.

At this moment, Bai Luoming seemed to be awakened by Bailu's words. His eyes lit up, and he slammed his right hand into his palm, saying, "Bailu is right, why don't we find a place..."

"How about we find a place to fight?"

Jingliu believed that with her current martial arts skills, suppressing Bai Luoming would not be an easy task. Once Bai Luoming witnessed her strength, he might change his mind and become her disciple.

If he still can't see reality by then, then Jingliu will have no choice but to beat him to his knees...

Bai Luoming's expression froze upon hearing Jingliu's spirited words; he was somewhat taken aback, unsure of Jingliu's true intentions.

Could it be that she wasn't reborn, but rather simply driven by a sense of predatory excitement upon witnessing his immense power?

However, he didn't care. He could take advantage of the Jingliu's strength, which Emanator the ceiling below the level of the envoy, to test just how strong he was now.

"Okay, when shall we fight? Now? Or somewhere else?"

Bai Luoming readily agreed and accepted Jingliu's challenge to a battle.

"Of course not here. As for time, you can come anytime you want."

"You should handle this; I'm not very familiar with the specifics of Luofu."

Bai Luoming shrugged and said helplessly, "As for places to fight, there should be some in Luofu, but he can't get into those places. He still has to rely on Jingliu, the local bigwig in Luofu."

"Alright, I'll arrange everything then. Please follow me."

"Hey, aren't we going to clean up these broken Borisin of Bu Li Ren all over the ground?!"

"No need to do anything, the Cloud Knights will come and clean the ground in a little while."

"No, what I mean is, after we fought off these Borisin, is there any reward or anything? After all, this is considered protecting the safety of Luofu, isn't there any reward for being a hero?"

Bai Luoming asked somewhat unwillingly, after all, these Borisin were, in a way, a threat to Luofu's safety, and it would be a real pity if they just left like this.

Upon hearing this, Jingliu stopped in his tracks, casually kicking aside the annoying Bu Li's head, and turned to Bai Luoming, saying, "If you want them, these are naturally available. However, according to Luofu's customs, these might be a bit troublesome, requiring you to show your face. Are you sure you really need them?"

"Then forget it..."

Upon hearing Bai Luoming's reply, Jingliu turned and continued walking towards a certain place, a hint of joy on his face. Sure enough, this guy still didn't like to show his face.

Soon, she arrived at her destination, which was the shared Starskiff parking spot built into the Xianzhou by Luofu. Jingliu naturally took out the Jade Abacus, scanned the QR code on the Starskiff, and unlocked a Starskiff.

At this moment, Bai Luoming and Bailu arrived late.

Bailu looked at the Starskiff raft next to Jingliu and asked, "Wow, are we going to ride this later?"

Jingliu didn't answer, but nodded in acknowledgment.

Without waiting for their reactions, she sat down in the back seat of the Starskiff, leaving Bai Luoming and Bailu looking at each other in bewilderment.

Bai Luoming looked at Jingliu and questioned, "Aren't you driving?"

"I can't drive, why should I drive?"

Hearing Jingliu's frank words, Bai Luoming's face fell, and he tentatively asked Jingliu, "Is it possible that I also won't drive this thing? Bailu is a minor, so she probably shouldn't be able to drive this either..."

"Ah?"

This time, Jingliu was biased. In her Remembrance, Bai Luoming had always been the one driving the Starskiff, so she sat in the back, forgetting that Bai Luoming didn't know how to drive the Starskiff at all.

It can only be said that ingrained thinking can be deadly, but considering that Jingliu is now a patient with Mara-Struck, it is somewhat understandable.

"Or, should we cancel our reservation and take a taxi there?"

Seeing Jingliu's blank expression, Bai Luoming tentatively asked.

At this moment, Bailu timidly raised her hand and whispered, "Well, actually, I do know a bit about the Starskiff and know how to drive it. How about I drive it?"

"You really know how to drive? I remember you're still a minor!" Upon hearing this, Bai Luoming looked at Bailu with disbelief, his words full of doubt.

"Don't underestimate me! This thing is so simple, anyone could operate it!"

"Let her drive. I'll take care of everything. Nothing will happen."

"Huh? You're on her side too? Putting aside whether she can drive or not, she probably doesn't even have a driver's license. Is she really okay?"

"It's nothing, just a driver's license, it's not important. I'll handle any stops we encounter on the road."

Listening to Jingliu's words, even though it was still daytime in Luofu, he felt for some reason that the sky in Luofu seemed somewhat dark.
