Chapter 199 The person you're waiting for, is he really worth it?
Jun Yi had already arrived at the battleground between Liu Erlong and the wolves. He immediately spotted the injured Liu Erlong and confirmed her identity. Liu Erlong was wearing a simple blue cloth dress, with a cloth covering her head to tie up a strand of blue hair. Her features were delicate and beautiful, her eyebrows like a painting, against her somewhat pale face. Beneath the cloth dress was a voluptuous and perfect figure that no ordinary girl could achieve.
At this moment, her left shoulder was injured, and blood flowed down her clothes, but she still stubbornly protected her students, without flinching. Opposite her was a giant blue wolf, three meters tall, with strong and powerful limbs and a single horn on its forehead. It was staring at its prey with a cold and cruel gaze.
"Awoo!"
The wolf king let out a low growl and suddenly leaped out, pouncing on Liu Erlong. At his command, the remaining 18 giant wolves all charged towards the group.
In the center of the wolf pack, only the wolf alpha was the fastest. As it ran, the surrounding air seemed to turn into a bone-chilling cold, as if the entire earth had frozen.
The wolf pack suddenly stopped and turned their heads in unison to look at the trees behind them.
"What happened? Why did the wolf pack stop?" a student asked curiously.
"Could it be..." Liu Erlong clearly saw the look of horror on the faces of the several Gale Demon Wolf behind her, and she suddenly had a terrible guess.
In the direction the wolves were staring intently, a figure slowly emerged from behind the trees. He was dressed in purple, wearing a hideous purple spider mask, with silver metal and obsidian crystals inlaid on either side of the mask. Reflecting a faint light in the sunlight, it gave him an air of mystery.
His legs were long and well-proportioned, and each step he took felt like stepping on someone's head, giving off an extremely dangerous feeling. In particular, the aura emanating from him made people afraid to look directly at him. As he continued to approach the wolf pack, the wolves even began to tremble, and even their original fierce aura vanished.
Immediately afterward, the black pupils beneath the purple mask glared at the wolf king. The wolf king trembled violently, the ferocity in its eyes vanished instantly, and it let out a miserable howl, quickly tucking its tail between its legs and fleeing the scene. Seeing the wolf king escape, the pack of wolves scattered and ran into the jungle.
Who is this person?
At this moment, Liu Erlong and her companions were all filled with shock. No one knew why this suddenly appearing figure was so terrifying, scaring away the wolves with a single glance. Could he be Titled Douluo?
"Are you all alright?" Jun Yi's voice reached everyone's ears, sounding somewhat hoarse. He had deliberately lowered his voice to prevent others from recognizing him. Otherwise, if people saw that he was Jun Yi, news of his presence in the Star Dou Great Forest would definitely leak out, which would be quite bad.
"It's alright, thank you for saving me, senior."
Upon seeing this, Liu Erlong quickly suppressed her flames and hurriedly said respectfully, "The mysterious masked man who suddenly appeared before me is incredibly powerful. He drove away the Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beast with a single glance. I subconsciously thought that Jun Yi must be my senior."
"Thank you for saving us, senior." The other five students also bowed to Jun Yi.
"It was just a small favor, no need to thank me." Jun Yi shook his head slightly, then pointed to Liu Erlong's left shoulder and said, "Your shoulder is still bleeding."
"It's just some superficial injury, nothing serious." She then turned to a female student behind her and said, " Jiang Zhu, could you treat me?"
"Yes, Dean." The green scepter in the female student's hand emitted a light green glow, which flowed into Liu Erlong's shoulder and stopped the bleeding from the wound.
Jun Yi watched them receive treatment quietly from the side. Seeing that Liu Erlong's external injuries had healed, he prepared to nod slightly and turn to leave.
"Senior, please wait a moment. Please tell me your name, and I will repay your kindness in the future." Liu Erlong hurriedly asked. Although she and Jun Yi were complete strangers, he had just saved her life. She also wanted to know who he was and how he could possess such great strength.
"No need. I only saved you because you're pleasing to the eye; there's no other reason."
Jun Yi replied with feigned profundity, "To be honest, Jun Yi saved Liu Erlong because she's very beautiful. If this were a group of men, Jun Yi would have adhered to the noble belief of 'minding my own business' and wouldn't have bothered with them at all. After all, helping is a favor, not helping is my duty, and I Jun Yi, am essentially a person of duty. I have a flexible standard of 'duty' in dealing with people and things; in short, I have a double standard."
"Love at first sight?" Upon hearing his words, Liu Erlong was stunned for a moment. She never expected someone to be so frank. The students behind her also stared blankly at Jun Yi, their eyes full of doubt.
What kind of answer is that?!
Jun Yi ignored them and turned to leave, but just as he was about to take a step, he suddenly turned back to look at Liu Erlong and said, "Since we are destined to meet, let me say one more thing. Is the person you're waiting for really worth all this? Over the years, has your persistence been because of love, or because he has become an obsession you can't let go of? Sometimes, he's not so perfect. It's just that he's been constantly idealized in your memories, to the point that he's become a flawless representative in your world. But in reality, he's not like that at all, and he's not worth waiting for all these years."
That's all I have to say. Whether you listen or not is up to you.
After saying that, Jun Yi strode away, leaving behind a shocked Liu Erlong and five students with question marks on their faces. They had no idea what Jun Yi was talking about, but his words were like a knife to Liu Erlong's heart, causing her to fall into deep thought.
"Who exactly is he? How does he know about my affairs?"
Liu Erlong was somewhat bewildered. She didn't understand why the mysterious masked man would suddenly bring up her painful past. She had never told anyone about it in all these years, so how did he know?
And judging from the mysterious masked man's words, he wanted to persuade me to let go of my obsession, forget that person, and stop waiting? But... could I let go? I've waited for him for so many years, never giving up, even willing to abandon everything to follow in his footsteps, but in the end he left without saying goodbye and disappeared into the crowd.
"Is it really as my senior said, that he has become my obsession?"
