The Effect Na'er Had on Bai Yushan

Bai Yushan walked at a moderate pace, his steps steady. He crossed the main street, turned into a side road, and then into a small alley.

Fewer and fewer people were there, and the lights dimmed.

The shops on both sides gradually turned into old residential buildings, with ivy climbing all over the walls, casting swaying shadows when the night wind blew.

Gu Yue tiptoed and followed, turning into the alley.

But as soon as she turned the corner, she suddenly stopped in her tracks.

The alley was empty.

The alley was long and stretched as far as the eye could see, but there wasn't a soul in sight.

Where are they?

Gu Yue frowned, took two steps forward, and quietly spread his Spiritual Power, trying to sense the other party's aura.

Just then, a warm breath suddenly blew over the back of my neck.

"Little girl, are you looking for me?"

The voice was low, with a hint of mocking laughter, right next to my ear.

Gu Yue's heart skipped a beat, and the hairs on her body stood on end.

Oh no!

The thought had barely crossed her mind when she was about to use her Spatial Jump to leap forward when she felt a tightness around her waist.

A warm, strong arm came across and firmly encircled her waist. Then another arm wrapped around her, and the two arms, like iron hoops, held her tightly in their embrace.

The force was astonishing; she struggled slightly, and a throbbing, pressing sensation came from her ribs.

Gu Yue was both angry and shocked.

She knew this feeling all too well.

During summer training, this guy pinned her to the ground in this position countless times. His monstrous strength was something she couldn't possibly break free from now.

If you really try to fight it out, your arm and ribs will definitely be broken.

The surging power came through the thin fabric, like a mountain pressing down on me, even making my Soul Power flow more sluggish.

Bai Yushan lowered his head slightly, resting his chin on her shoulder, his breath brushing against her earlobe, carrying a hint of coolness from the night breeze.

"What are you up to, sneaking around with me all this way?"

His voice was low and tinged with amusement, but the pressure on his hands gradually tightened.

Gu Yue gritted her teeth, about to speak, when she heard him slowly add another sentence.

"Gu Yue, if you can't give me a clear answer, I'll make sure you're bedridden for a month."

The tone was threatening, blatant.

He absolutely can do it.

Gu Yue had no doubt.

When this guy goes crazy, he won't care who you are, he'll beat you up without hesitation.

In a moment of desperation, a brilliant idea flashed through her mind, and she blurted it out without thinking.

Na'er needs to talk to you.

In short, it's all very superficial.

The tension in my waist instantly eased.

Bai Yushan reacted as if he had been burned, abruptly withdrawing his hand and taking half a step back.

Na'er.

These two words were like a feather, gently brushing against his heart, leaving it both itchy and tender.

In this world, there are not many people that Bai Yushan can truly care about.

Na'er counts as one, Bi Ji counts as one, and Chen Qingquan counts as half.

He desperately practiced Electric Current Push, honed his martial arts like a madman, and even forced out his Haki. Part of it was to take control of his own destiny, and the other part was to accumulate enough strength as soon as possible to go to Shrek City to find them.

Gu Yue turned around, crossed her arms, and looked him up and down.

The streetlights slanted in from the alley entrance, half falling on Bai Yushan's face and half hidden in shadow. Such a tall man, with such strength, who was so arrogant just now, now stood there, actually showing a hint of helplessness.

Gu Yue's heart skipped a beat for no apparent reason.

She had never seen Bai Yushan like this before.

In her memory, this guy always seemed fearless, even daring to go head-to-head with the Teacher Wu when he went crazy, and showing no mercy when beating her up. He was always arrogant and unrestrained.

But now, the tenderness in his eyes was impossible to hide, and even his voice had softened considerably.

All because of Na'er.

A nameless anger suddenly surged within Gu Yue.

What's so great about it?

It's just a fragment that split off from myself. In terms of bloodline, strength, and talent, how can it compare to me?

She is the true Silver Dragon King.

Why is this guy so gentle and sweet with Na'er, but he's always getting handsy with me?

Gu Yue denied that she was jealous.

I absolutely refuse to admit it.

She just felt that Bai Yushan's appearance was an eyesore.

"Na'er... what's wrong?"

Bai Yushan spoke slowly, his voice low, tinged with a cautious probing.

Those eyes, which always carried a hint of madness, were now filled with a tenderness that Gu Yue had never seen before. Like melted ice, they were incredibly soft.

Gu Yue was even more annoyed.

Without thinking, she blurted out, "It's nothing serious. She just said she misses you and asked someone to bring you something to pass on."

He can lie without batting an eye.

She wanted to see just how anxious this guy would be for Na'er's things.

Bai Yushan immediately stepped forward, reached out his hand, palm up, his eyes shining brightly.

Where is the stuff?

His tone was extremely urgent, direct, and without any beating around the bush.

She acted as if Gu Yue was merely a messenger, and there was no need for any further pleasantries.

Gu Yue's anger flared up even more.

So all that arguing with him just now wasn't as important as half of Na'er's things?

Damn it.

She turned her face away and snorted coldly, "What's your rush? I left the things in my hotel room; you have to let me go back before you can get them, right?"

Would I lie to you?

She glanced at Bai Yushan, her tone tinged with annoyance.

Bai Yushan was stunned for a moment before realizing that he had indeed been a bit too hasty.

He awkwardly withdrew his hand, scratched the back of his head, and a rare embarrassed smile appeared on his face.

"Yes, yes, it's my fault for being a bit hasty."

When he smiled, his eyebrows and eyes relaxed, he lost some of his wildness and gained more of a youthful clarity, and he actually looked quite pleasing to the eye.

Gu Yue quickly looked away, muttering to herself.

What's so interesting about it?

She cleared her throat and changed the subject. "Let's not talk about that. What are you doing sneaking out here so late at night instead of staying in a hotel?"

Don't tell me you just came out for a walk.

Bai Yushan raised an eyebrow, not bothering to hide it from her.

Anyway, it's not something shameful.

"I'm going to participate in the underground fighting in Skysea City."

"Underground fighting?" Gu Yue frowned, his eyes filled with doubt. "Aren't the underground boxing matches in Eastsea City enough for you?"

She knew this guy's reputation in the underground boxing ring of Eastsea City; he was known as Sea Tiger, invincible.

How much more powerful can the underground boxing ring in Skysea City be compared to the Eastsea City?

Bai Yushan shook his head and walked towards the alley entrance, saying as he went, "It's different. There's Federation Navy stationed here in Skysea City, and the military regulations are strict, so the underground boxing rings don't dare to do those shady things. They call it underground fighting, but it's really just a real combat competition that the higher-ups turn a blind eye to."

"Not only do various academies send teachers to lead teams of senior students down to gain experience, but even low-ranking officers and Soul Master soldiers from the Navy participate. If there's any difference, it's that the underground boxing matches in Skysea City are more formalized."

"Of course, this 'formal' status only means it's more formal than the shady underground boxing rings in other cities. The resident boxers in Skysea City are just as many desperate individuals."
