Bai Xuan looked at Huo Yu speechlessly; he had wondered what she might say.
Did she have to be so narcissistic?
"What are you looking at? Do you have a problem with my appearance?"
Huo Yu narrowed her eyes, a hint of hostility appearing on her face.
"Not at all."
Bai Xuan shrugged. There was no doubt that Huo Yu was indeed beautiful.
Calling her a femme fatale wouldn't be wrong.
"Tch, a high schooler like you doesn't understand the charm of a woman at all."
Huo Yu first hummed in dissatisfaction, then asked with some curiosity:
"What did this guy say?"
"He attacked you under the guise of testing your strength?"
"But it looks like you defeated him before he could even make a move; his shoulders and legs are severely damaged."
"Something like that."
Bai Xuan didn't deny it, speaking indifferently.
"I hope next time he can restrain the malice on him, as well as that disgusting tone of his."
"Well, well, try to be understanding. There are fools like that everywhere."
Huo Yu spread her hands. She could roughly understand what Bai Xuan meant.
But there was nothing to be done about it. The Reiki Revival had only just begun; expecting them to adapt to this era so quickly and change their past ways of speaking was unlikely.
The state had also considered this aspect. After all, times were changing, and things that didn't adapt to the era would face serious consequences.
The Industrial Revolution of the past was like this, and the current Reiki Revival was the same.
Therefore, the state had to consider every aspect.
Language was one of the areas they focused on heavily.
They certainly didn't want the strong individuals of their country to do something irrational in a fit of rage—or even leave the country—because of the comments of some people on the internet.
Everyone had to have some reverence for the strong.
Huo Yu didn't converse with Bai Xuan for long. After all, she was the Director of the Hang City Spirit Energy Bureau and had many matters to attend to.
She had come this time because she viewed Bai Xuan as a key subject of interest. When Bai Xuan called to have professionals handle the situation, the information was sent to her, which was why she had followed along.
The same held true: given Bai Xuan's current talent and ability, unless he did something harmful to the country and the people, he was free to do as he pleased.
Unless someone could prove that Bai Xuan's Superpower wasn't as powerful as they thought, that he didn't possess the ability to control oxygen, and that it had nothing to do with the concept of nature.
However, this incident with Li Feng would likely increase their trust in Bai Xuan's abilities.
"Ding, member [Glory of the Northern God] has joined the chat group."
"Ding, member [Richest Man in the Lighthouse] has joined the chat group."
The mechanical, cold voice of the chat group rang in Bai Xuan's ears. Bai Xuan was stunned for a moment, then smiled. He walked over to the rocking chair placed in front of the villa, closed his eyes, and entered the chat group.
Ordinary Group Owner: "New members have arrived?"
Ordinary Group Owner: "And two at once?"
Ordinary Group Owner: "Welcome, welcome."
Ordinary Group Owner: "Newcomers, introduce yourselves."
Worst Spirit: "Welcome, newcomers. This is a Superdimensional Chat Group that can connect the Myriad Worlds. We are also people from other worlds. If you have any doubts or questions about this, you can recall the information in your brain; it has already told you everything."
Be My Son: "Gurarara, another newcomer after Dongfang Bubai."
Uchiha Dance King: "The group name of one of them is quite interesting."
Uchiha Dance King: "A god, is it."
Boil Daigo Into Soup: "Welcome, newcomers. By the way, what kind of god is the Northern God? A god of the north?"
Boil Daigo Into Soup: "But to be the glory of all Northern Gods, that's impressive."
Boil Daigo Into Soup: "The newcomer's strength must be very high, right?"
That Is How It Is Meow: "Richest Man in the Lighthouse? Although I don't know where the Lighthouse is, Meowth smells the scent of money."
Golden Flash: "Welcome, newcomers. Seeing that you all have sent so much, I suddenly feel that welcoming newcomers individually is very monotonous."
Dongfang Bubai: "So what should I send at a time like this?"
Son of Nature: "A verbal welcome should be enough, probably."
Ordinary Group Owner: "@Glory of the Northern God, @Richest Man in the Lighthouse, don't be shy. Come out and introduce yourselves."
Ordinary Group Owner: "Everyone in the group is a good person."
Uchiha Dance King: "."
Although he didn't consider himself a villain, seeing others call him a good person made him feel inexplicably uncomfortable.
Boil Daigo Into Soup: "The newcomer seems quite vigilant."
Boil Daigo Into Soup: "To think they haven't said a word for so long."
Worst Spirit: "It's normal to be wary of the unknown."
Dongfang Bubai: "It's also possible they are contemplating how to use this."
Ordinary Group Owner: "Sister Dongfang, how were you able to start speaking in the chat group so quickly back then?"
Dongfang Bubai: "My heart was moved."
Ordinary Group Owner: "I don't understand."
Son of Nature: "It's as if a voice in the dark was telling her how to operate it."
Son of Nature: "Just like when you meet someone in a dream; even if you can't see their face, you somehow know who they are."
Ordinary Group Owner: "I see, that explanation makes it perfectly clear."
Ordinary Group Owner: "By the way, these two names are a bit hard to guess. 'Glory of the Northern God' sounds familiar—is it Thor?"
In her memory, the only one who fit that name was Thor, though she didn't know if it was the Thor from proper Norse Mythology, the one from Marvel, or perhaps from some other world entirely.
Ordinary Group Owner: "And this 'Richest Man in the Lighthouse', what a vague name."
Ordinary Group Owner: "Could it be the richest person in the Lighthouse Nation from some ordinary world?"
Son of Nature: "You aren't sure about the identity of 'Glory of the Northern God'?"
Son of Nature: "Have you never watched One Hundred Thousand Bad Jokes?"
Bai Xuan was a bit surprised. He really hadn't expected Su Yunqing to fail to recognize the identity of 'Glory of the Northern God'. While she had guessed Thor, which was technically correct, if she had actually watched One Hundred Thousand Bad Jokes, her tone would never have been so uncertain.
Ordinary Group Owner: "One Hundred Thousand Bad Jokes? What's that? One Hundred Thousand Bad Jokes?"
Ordinary Group Owner: "I've heard of it; someone recommended it to me, but I was watching Re:Zero - Starting Life in Another World at the time, so I didn't get around to it and eventually forgot."
Ordinary Group Owner: "Is the newcomer from the One Hundred Thousand Bad Jokes world? Is he a Deity from Norse Mythology?"
Son of Nature: "I'm not entirely sure, but the name suggests as much."
Son of Nature: "It is indeed Norse Mythology, and even Thor, but... well, he might be a bit different from what you're imagining."
