How Important Is Na'er to You? Of Course She's Very, Very Important
Bai Yushan looked at him and nodded.
You're alright.
These three simple words were the highest praise he gave today.
After he finished speaking, he turned and walked towards the edge of the ring.
It's over.
That was fun too.
With these thoughts in mind, Bai Yushan turned and walked straight towards the edge of the arena.
The deafening roar behind us continued, causing the entire underground space to tremble slightly.
The words "Sea Tiger" were roared by hundreds of people, like some kind of fanatical religious slogan.
He didn't turn around or wave, but walked off the stage step by step. His black outfit was stained with blood, and his white tiger mask gleamed coldly. His back was upright yet relaxed.
The spectators along the way automatically parted to make way for each other. Everyone subconsciously held their breath, and even the most enthusiastic gamblers dared not approach to speak.
The murderous aura that had just faded from the bloody battle could be felt even from several steps away, making one's heart tighten.
Gu Yue sat in the stands, watching the figure approach, and was momentarily lost in thought.
In the eyes of these viewers, he was no different from a god at that moment.
Yes, which of these high-ranking officials and dignitaries who control the economy, entertainment, and power in Skysea City isn't a cunning and shrewd person?
What kind of scene haven't I seen? What kind of trick haven't I played?
But why do they act so wildly, as if possessed, specifically in these underground boxing rings?
If Bai Yushan knew what she was thinking, he would definitely tell her that it was because they were all human.
In a world where individual power can move mountains and fill seas, especially in the presence of those who truly wield power, pure, primal violence is what attracts them most.
They all understood that the power, wealth, and status enshrined in the rules and regulations of modern society were merely the visible products born from the forgiveness of absolute violence.
If violence is not permitted, then all those so-called rules and regulations must be completely eradicated.
Bai Yushan was simply presenting this purest form of violence and most direct power nakedly to them.
There are no fancy Soul Skill effects, and no complicated rules or preambles.
It's a punch, a kick, head-on collision, a real fight.
Smash all the fancy stuff, crush all the scheming.
The most primal forces are always the most capable of stirring the blood and guts in people's bones.
"What are you daydreaming about?"
A familiar voice sounded overhead, with a slightly lazy tone.
Gu Yue snapped back to reality and saw that Bai Yushan had already walked up to the stands and was looking up at her.
As he spoke, he reached over the railing and ruffled her hair.
His large palms, still slightly warm from the fight and carrying a faint smell of burnt lightning, ruffled her silvery-white hair.
"Let's go, let's go. Staying up too late isn't good either."
Bai Yushan withdrew his hand and turned to walk towards the exit.
Gu Yue sat there, stunned for two seconds.
Normally, she would have jumped up and started arguing with him. Who gave him permission to rub his head like that?
But today, she unusually didn't argue.
She stood up, dusted off her clothes, and followed closely behind Bai Yushan.
Standing two steps away, she looked up and sized up the boy's back.
How should I describe him?
Arrogant? He's rational enough.
Arrogant? He was clear-headed enough.
Madness? He was absolutely certain. From throwing a punch to walking, he always had that nonchalant yet confident demeanor, as if even if the sky were to fall, nothing could stop his steps.
Gu Yue looked at it for a while, then gently shook her head.
It's indescribable.
This guy is a monster.
The two walked out along the passage, one after the other.
The noise behind me gradually faded away, and as the heavy metal door closed, the screams inside were shut out into another world.
The alley was quiet, and a night breeze carried the salty, damp scent of the sea, which invigorated the spirit.
Bai Yushan removed the white tiger mask and casually stuffed it into his Storage Soul Tool. His black hair was damp with sweat and stuck to his forehead, but he didn't look disheveled at all; instead, he exuded a more carefree and wild air.
He glanced at Gu Yue following behind him, raising an eyebrow. "What? Stunned?"
"Who's looking at you!"
Gu Yue immediately retorted, but only after the words left her mouth did she realize that she had subconsciously followed his pace.
She quickly quickened her pace, walked to a spot next to him, turned her face away, and pretended to look at the scenery on the street.
Bai Yushan chuckled but didn't expose her.
The two walked side by side towards the hotel.
Skysea City was still bustling at night. The taverns along the street were still lit up, and occasionally a drunkard would walk by singing. From the direction of the port came the muffled sound of cargo ship horns, like distant thunder.
They walked in silence, but there was no awkwardness.
As Gu Yue walked down the corridor outside her hotel room, she stopped and took out her room key.
"I'm going in now. You should get some rest too. We have to get up early for the opening ceremony tomorrow."
As she was speaking, about to swipe her room card, her wrist was grabbed.
Bai Yushan's palm was warm, and although his grip wasn't strong, he held her wrist firmly.
"Etc."
He frowned and said, "Gu Yue, don't forget what Na'er sent me."
Gu Yue suddenly turned his head.
Bai Yushan stood next to her, the warm yellow light of the corridor falling on his face.
Without the mask, her delicate and sharp face was clearly visible. Her brows were delicate, her eyes were long and narrow, and she was slightly frowning, her eyes filled with a hint of urgency and a sense of entitlement.
Gu Yue just stared at him for a long time.
The corridor was quiet, with only the hum of the overhead lights and the distant clanging of the elevator.
She asked a question out of the blue.
How important is Na'er to you?
As soon as the words left her mouth, Gu Yue was stunned.
How could she ask such a question?
Bai Yushan was also a little confused by the question, raising an eyebrow. "What are you talking about? Of course it's very, very important!"
He spoke as if it were the most natural thing in the world, and the sincerity in his eyes was absolutely genuine.
Na'er was the first person in this world who treated him with all her heart.
She is my sister, my family, someone I would protect with my life.
Of course it's important.
Seeing his matter-of-fact attitude, Gu Yue suddenly felt a surge of anger.
There was also a strange, inexplicable feeling about it.
She abruptly shook off Bai Yushan's hand.
Who cares how important you are!
Her voice was a little hurried, but her ears were quietly turning red.
I'll give you the things tomorrow!
After saying that, she quickly swiped the door open, slammed it shut, and stood with her back against the door.
Outside the door, Bai Yushan stood there, stunned for a few seconds.
"Baffling."
He scratched his head, puzzled as to what was wrong with the girl this time.
A woman's heart is like a needle at the bottom of the sea.
Bai Yushan shook his head, turned around, and walked back to his room.
Who cares? As long as I get the stuff tomorrow.
He opened the door, went inside, and closed it behind him.
