Tianxing Lake.

One of the top ten scenic spots in Qingyang City.

This place is lush with ancient trees and has beautiful scenery.

There is also a Great Lake that, at night, reflects the starry sky, making it exceptionally beautiful.

The lake gets its name from the reflection of the stars in the sky.

Saturday, 10:00 AM.

Luo Yan and the others got off the school bus.

What comes into view is a bustling crowd of people.

Luo Yan couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

The existence of Undercity has truly preserved many things about humanity.

For example, going on a trip.

On the surface of the earth, people worry about making a living every day.

Where there is leisure time, there is the mood to travel.

"Come with me."

Dong Huang waved a small flag, like a tour guide.

Sheng Yitian Ziyan felt embarrassed and kept their distance from him, pretending not to know him.

Although Dong Huang was leading the group, they were quickly separated by the crowds in the scenic area.

However, the location of the hotel I'm staying at tonight is already on my phone.

Luo Yan, however, was not worried.

I wasn't in a hurry to meet up with my classmates.

He wandered around by himself.

Before long, they saw white [something] under a large banyan tree.

As Luo Yan was about to go over, he saw a little boy run up to Bai's side, his face anxious, and he couldn't hear what the boy was saying.

As Luo Yan got closer, he heard that the little boy wanted Bai to help him take the balloon hanging on the banyan tree down.

"Sister, can you help me?" the little boy asked hopefully.

Bai looked up at the balloon hanging from the branches of the banyan tree, more than ten meters above the ground.

She covered her mouth and whispered, "My sister can't reach it, why don't you ask someone else?"

The little boy looked dejected, lowered his head, and nodded.

He approached several more people, but was rejected by all of them.

Seeing him like this, Bai couldn't bear it and waved to the little boy.

The little boy ran over.

Bai said, "I'll get it for you, but you have to keep it a secret."

The little boy hadn't yet figured out what secrets he was supposed to keep.

A huge hand appeared above their heads, wearing White Glove and covered with eyeballs.

The hand was outstretched, and inside was the balloon hanging from the tree branch.

The little boy reached for it, and at that moment, all the eyes on the White Glove looked over.

He screamed in fright and fell to the ground.

Bai quickly removed the balloon and deactivated 'Strange Trickster'.

Just then, a woman dressed in luxurious clothes ran over. "Why are you bullying my Xiaolong?"

"Oh dear, everyone come quick! Such a big person, pushing a child to the ground!"

Bai said, feeling wronged, "I didn't, I was just helping him get the balloons." "You're still trying to deny it! Look at you, pushing a child down and laughing! You're obviously no good person!"

There was indeed a smile on Bai's face.

A strange smile crept onto her lips.

She then realized that she had been holding the balloon in one hand and hadn't covered her mouth.

"You still feel wronged, don't you?"

"Look at you, what decent girl would dye her hair like that?"

"Wow, wearing an eye mask, you're having some wild fun."

The mother's dialogue, a barrage of sarcastic remarks, successfully grabbed attention.

Many tourists gathered around, offering their opinions and comments.

Bai quickly let go and covered his mouth with both hands.

Why is this happening?

I just wanted to help him.

I didn't mean to make fun of anyone.

I was simply affected by something 'weird' and couldn't control the muscles in my face.

I really shouldn't have left the Academy.

Just then...

A figure flashed before Bai's eyes.

The man didn't say a word.

A slap landed on the woman in the elegant dress across the face.

Snap!

With a crisp slap, the woman fell to the ground, a clear red handprint appearing on one side of her face.

She was slapped so hard she saw stars.

I finally calmed down, and it was about to flare up again.

Then he met a pair of red eyes.

In those crimson eyes, she seemed to see blood flowing, countless corpses floating and sinking, and hell itself!

She fainted.

She was so frightened by the murderous intent in those red eyes that she fainted.

Bai then called out, "Classmate Luo Yan."

Luo Yan nodded slightly and looked around.

Startled by his gaze, the onlookers instinctively stepped back.

Luo Yan then withdrew his gaze, pulled Bai Qi along, and left the place.

The two arrived at a quiet lakeside.

Luo Yan then released his grip.

"Thanks."

Behind him, Bai whispered.

Luo Yan turned around and looked at the girl covering her mouth. "Put your hand down."

A huge question mark appeared in Bai's eyes.

Without offering an explanation, Luo Yan forcefully pulled Bai's hands, which were covering her mouth, down.

And so, Bai's face, with its eerie smile, came into Luo Yan's view.

Bai tried to cover himself in panic, but Luo Yan had his hand held tightly, so he couldn't move at all.

"Don't look at me, Luo Yan."

Bai turned his head away, not wanting Luo Yan to see him like this.

But then Luo Yan said...

"Isn't it pretty?"

Why are you covering your face?

Bai paused for a moment.

He couldn't help but look at Luo Yan.

Luo Yan released his grip and said, "Don't worry about what others think. You're not living for them."

"If it were me."

I don't care what others think.

"They may not understand or agree."

"But if anyone uses this to attack me..."

I'll make him regret it.

A strange light flickered in Bai's eyes.

Luo Yan looked around and his gaze fell on an ice cream truck.

"I'll treat you to ice cream, wait for me."

He didn't care whether he got to eat it for free or not, and turned around to walk towards the ice cream truck.

On his pale face, the corners of his mouth involuntarily turned upwards again.

She instinctively reached out to cover her mouth.

But he put his hand back halfway through.

Hehehehe...

"Luo Yan looked so cool just now."

"Hehehehe..."

A moment later, Luo Yan returned with two ice creams and, without saying a word, shoved one into Bai's hand.

This scene was witnessed by Liu Ruohan, who happened to be passing by.

Liu Ruohan looked surprised.

"Luo Yan... you actually treated someone to food?"

After her initial surprise, she slowly pouted.

"Damn it, why only invite Bai?!"

"Isn't that guy clueless about romance?"

"When this guy beat me up, he really hit me hard."

"And they didn't ask for a single penny less!"

"Now they're actually treating Bai to ice cream?"

Liu Ruohan suddenly felt like she was spending money to support a younger boyfriend, only to catch him cheating on her.

The more I thought about it, the angrier I became.

He turned his head and stormed off in another direction.

I spent two days at the Tianxing Lake scenic area.

Sunday evening.

Luo Yan and the others then returned to the Academy.

That evening, Luo Yan went to the rented warehouse.

He changed his clothes, put on a cloak, and took his long sword, ' Huanlong '.

Only then did they head to the city center.

Following the address Zhang Ze gave them that day, they found a teahouse on Longjing Road.

The teahouse is quaint and small in size, but has a unique charm.

When Luo Yan entered, he saw a tea server serving tea to a guest from a teapot with a long spout.

He pulled down his hood, walked to the counter, and knocked a few times.

Three long and two short.

The teahouse owner, who was calculating the accounts behind the counter, looked up and glanced over.
