After listening to Chrysanthemum Douluo's words, Bai Yu nodded slightly and replied with a smile:
"Alright, you two should head back first. As for visiting your place, of course I'll go. Your preferences are well-known in the Spirit Hall."
"I'll take out the Immortal herbs I have for Elder Chrysanthemum to admire then. Cough, but could you give me some more of the medicine you prepared?"
Chrysanthemum Douluo was all smiles, but when he heard the second half of Bai Yu's words, his face turned green and he shook his head like a rattle drum.
Want me to give you some more? If I give you any more, will I even be able to live? You can talk until the end of time, but I'm not giving you anything today!
"No! Impossible! Your Highness, it's best if you don't come. Your immortal herbs are too expensive; this old man cannot afford to admire them!"
Seeing Chrysanthemum Douluo's expression as if his tail had been stepped on, Bai Yu couldn't help but laugh out loud and waved his hand, saying:
"Elder Chrysanthemum, don't worry, I was just joking. Don't take it seriously. With my current strength, I don't need those things to leave."
At this point, Chrysanthemum Douluo's expression improved considerably. Thinking about it, it made sense; he was already so strong, who could stop him from leaving if he wanted to?
"Ahem, Holy Son, don't blame me for not agreeing to your request. It's just that what you did before really put me in a difficult position!"
"In that case, I and Old Ghost will take our leave now. See you later, Your Highness."
As soon as he finished speaking, Chrysanthemum Douluo called out to Ghost Douluo. Ghost Douluo nodded to Bai Yu, then turned around and followed his good friend, taking flight.
After Chrysanthemum Douluo and the other person disappeared, Bai Yu turned to look at the four people behind him and chuckled.
"Alright, everyone else has left, let's go too. When we get back, let's get some food and drinks and catch up."
"Xie Yue, Yan, I heard that you two and Nana have made a name for yourselves as the Golden Generation of the Spirit Hall? Not bad!"
When Xie Yue and Yan heard Bai Yu mention the Golden Generation, their lips twitched slightly, their faces flushed, and they were so embarrassed that they almost scratched their toes on the ground.
They were initially quite satisfied with the title of "Golden Generation," until they witnessed Bai Yu's strength today.
It made them feel that this title was so embarrassingly awkward.
They're all about the same age, but Bai Yu has already reached the level of a top-ranked player, while they're still comparing themselves to their peers. They've already fallen behind!
"Bai Yu, please stop talking! What you're saying makes me want to disappear into the ground. I was initially quite smug, but after witnessing your strength today, it's truly despair-inducing!"
Xie Yue smiled bitterly; Bai Yu's strength had been a major blow to him.
He knew there was a gap between him and Bai Yu, but it couldn't be this big, could it? He couldn't accept it!
Bai Yu grinned, punched Xie Yue in the chest, stepped between Xie Yue and Yan, and put his arms around their shoulders.
"Tsk tsk, look at you all, acting as if I jumped into the river with your children in my arms. Isn't it better if I'm stronger?"
"The way you all are now perfectly exemplifies what I once told you: I fear not only that my brothers suffer, but also that they become the rulers of the country!"
(TL: what)
"Besides, my true soul power isn't as strong as you think. It's only about ten levels higher than yours. Didn't you see that my martial soul only has seven soul rings?"
"The ability to unleash the power of a titled douluo is entirely due to the power of the law that the Grand Elder spoke of, so don't be discouraged. Maybe one day someone will comprehend it."
Bai Yu's words of comfort were useless, but his jokes were very effective, successfully making both of them laugh and improve their mood.
Thinking back to their expression earlier, it really matched Bai Yu's joke. I was afraid that my brother would suffer, but I was even more afraid that my brother would become the ruler of the country!
Yan raised his hand and punched Bai Yu, laughing and cursing:
"You bastard, you're getting a good deal and then acting innocent! What do you mean 'only around level ten'? How much higher do you want to be?"
"Besides, is your Soul Ring normal? Good heavens, a seventh Soul Ring that's been around for 100,000 years? You really are inhuman!"
"And your power of laws, according to the High Priest, that should be related to the gods, right? You say we've ever comprehended it? Comprehended my ass! We treat you like a brother, and you treat us like dogs to be fooled?"
Yan had come to terms with it. So what if Bai Yu was strong? It didn't matter. If that bastard was stronger, he could enjoy the benefits too, right?
Didn't you see that the Grand Elder personally encouraged them? Whose face were they showing? It must be Bai Yu!
Otherwise, how could those three little students, who weren't even Soul Saints, have their names reach the ears of the High Priest who had already become indifferent to worldly affairs? Don't be ridiculous.
As for his goddess Hu Liena… well, there's no way around it, he still has to keep trying to win her over, even though he's given up in his heart, he just can't control himself!
As long as these two haven't officially become a couple, even if a god descended to earth, he'd still keep fawning over her! He just can't control himself!
Bai Yu had no idea what Yan was thinking at that moment. Otherwise, he would have patted Yan on the shoulder and said something like, "You're such a simp! Even a two-faced turtle would have to call you 'big brother' if you act like this!"
"Alright, stop joking around. Come on, buddy, I'll take you back for drinks. As they say, a good drink can wash away a thousand sorrows, and when you're drunk, the whole continent is yours!"
Hearing Bai Yu's words, Xie Yue chuckled, remembering how they had secretly drunk alcohol before, and how Yan had gotten drunk and become a jerk.
The titles of Lord of the Continent and Flame King spread throughout the world. Anyway, things were going very well, and he and Bai Yu laughed so hard they hid under the table.
Yan was now completely red-faced, feeling that there was no place for him on the continent anymore, and he wanted to move to another mainland to live!
Then he started gesturing wildly, muttering things like "don't take drunkenness seriously" and "everyone's drunk before," which were incomprehensible to most people.
After the three of them calmed down, Bai Yu turned around and called out to Spirit Kite douluo and Hu Liena. Then the five of them slowly began to walk towards Spirit City.
Spirit Kite Douluo, who had been watching the commotion from the sidelines, quickened her pace and came to Bai Yu's side, looking at him with a mournful expression.
"Xiao Yu, Elder Chrysanthemum said before that you made him suffer a lot. I didn't know what happened, but you definitely made me suffer a lot!"
"I was appointed as your protector by your teacher and the Elders' Hall. How could you leave without informing me?"
"Do you know what happened when I received the news that you had suddenly disappeared? It was like the sky had fallen. Luckily, you kept writing to us afterwards, otherwise I would have had to atone with my death."
Seeing Spirit Kite Douluo's tearful appearance, even though he knew that she was mostly faking it, Bai Yu still couldn't help but swallow.
His scalp was tingling, and he cursed inwardly, "Why are all the people here suffering this time? Are they trying to kill me?"
However, he knew that what he did was not ethical, but as he said before, once he told Spirit Kite, he couldn't run away anymore.
Moreover, the fact that he would send back letters from time to time was partly due to her. After all, if Bai Yu were to disappear without a trace, Spirit Kite Douluo would truly suffer.
(TL: not Chrysanthemum?)
"Well, I had no choice. You know the situation. I had to resort to this. But I'm really sorry. Just tell me your conditions, and I promise I'll agree!"
