"Whoosh!"
A shadow stealthily moved through the night, the scenery on either side blurring past like afterimages. Inside the cloak, Luo Yu's expression was now extremely strange.
If it weren't for the recent boost in cultivation during the day, which indirectly enhanced my bloodline, allowing me to barely communicate with the Beast Sovereign within the Blazing Demon Banner at night, I might have capsized in the gutter today.
He could guarantee with one hundred percent certainty that if he hadn't displayed enough power to intimidate the woman, she would have killed him without hesitation to prevent her secret from being revealed.
"Whoever told me the Skywater Academy's headmistress was just a Soul Douluo-level old lady, I want to beat them to death," Luo Yu gritted his teeth and said hatefully.
The other party was not simply a Title Douluo, or a beautiful ice-cold woman. Luo Yu's Golden Eyes of Truth not only broke through the opponent's disguise technique, but also instantly saw through her true form.
It was a massive, flawless ice crystal lotus flower, gathering the spiritual essence of heaven and earth. The crystal lotus flower, pure and clear, had nine petals, and in the center of the flower were seven points of light. Six of them shone brightly, while only one was dusty and dim.
"An unknown plant-type Soul Beast, and definitely one that didn't choose to cultivate for ten thousand years, instead choosing to endure the heavenly tribulation. A peerless, ferocious beast."
Luo Yu shook his head. He could only tell that the other party's strength far surpassed Dugu Bo. The woman's aura hadn't been fully revealed, so it was hard to say how much strength she was hiding.
That was also the reason why he hadn't offended her and instead chose to give her the Immortal Herb to build a connection.
He didn't know where she came from, nor did he know what her purpose was in being here, but Skywater Academy had never had any scandals. Presumably, there shouldn't be any major problems.
That Oddity was plant-type, with a cold and pure temperament. He guessed that she probably didn't hate humans that much. Didn't the Blue Silver Emperor even fall in love with a human?
Anyway, as long as she didn't kill innocent people, it had nothing to do with him, Luo Yu.
The strange strength he had displayed tonight was enough to make the other party wary. And finally, he gave her the top-grade Immortal Herb to express goodwill. As long as she wasn't stupid, she would probably take special care of him, who was in Skywater Academy.
He wondered what that fellow was after, hiding here for ten years like it was one day.
Could it be that she's truly tired of the world, like old Master Tao, and wants to live a peaceful life?
Impossible.
A凶兽 faces a tribulation every hundred thousand years. If they fail, they die. Faced with such a life-or-death crisis, how could she leisurely hide in a city, enjoying her retirement?
Luo Yu's pupils constricted. Could the key to her tribulation be here?
By this point, he had already leapt over Skywater Academy's high walls, flying to stand atop a tall tower not far from the academy. His left eye shimmered with golden light, and the Golden Eyes of Truth activated again. He looked down, gazing at Skywater Academy from afar.
Skywater Academy presented a scene of azure blue, a magnificent sight produced by the gathering of dense water and ice elements. Besides that, there was only a faint, almost imperceptible, touch of pink.
A look of confusion appeared in Luo Yu's eyes. Either Skywater Academy truly had nothing special, or his Heavenly Eye ability wasn't yet refined enough to discern the problem.
He turned his head, preparing to return home. Just as he was about to retract his ability, a black shadow, moving stealthily in the darkness, hidden extremely well and hurrying on its way, was caught by his Golden Eyes.
"Hmm?" A surprised female voice echoed. The slender figure in black, hurrying on its way, seemed to sense something. She quickly turned her head, glancing in a certain direction. The tall tower stood alone in the moonlight, but there was nothing there.
"Was it just an illusion?"
The voice, gentle and beautiful yet infused with authority, resonated in the air. The slender figure in black continued on toward her destination.
Luo Yu emerged from a dark alley on the other side. His eyes had already returned to normal, preventing him from being discovered. The fleeting glimpse he caught had left him shocked.
It was a woman with a near-perfect appearance, even slightly surpassing the icy beauty he had seen earlier. Her long, slender phoenix eyes were naturally alluring yet stern and imposing. Her wine-red hair was styled in an elaborate bun, and her noble and holy aura was impossible to conceal.
"Who is this woman?"
"The direction she's going is—"
"Skywater Academy??"
"Why is Skywater Academy so popular? What's going on?" Luo Yu was bewildered. He hadn't expected to encounter so many strange things on this outing.
That woman just now was not simple at all. Luo Yu held his chin. Even with just a fleeting glance, he could feel the vast Soul Power stored within her body, like a bottomless abyss.
Crimson hair, an incredibly noble aura, and unfathomable strength. Putting it all together, Luo Yu's body suddenly jolted.
Could it be Bibi Dong? Why would she be here?
He hadn't heard of her having any connection with Skywater Academy. Could she be here for that enormous Soul Beast? What kind of secret plot could they have?
That doesn't seem right. Bibi Dong hadn't even attached the Soul Rings to her second Martial Soul yet. If she discovered the enormous Soul Beast, it would be strange if they didn't fight.
Could it not be Bibi Dong? Besides, the empress wouldn't sneak into someone's academy in the middle of the night, would she?
Scratching his hair, Luo Yu felt completely clueless. Gazing at Skywater Academy in the night, the corners of his mouth quickly curled up, and a wicked, playful murmur escaped.
"This is a Douluo Continent that's a bit more interesting. Otherwise, life would be too boring. Let me see what secrets you're hiding here." A strong sense of curiosity and challenge flashed in Luo Yu's eyes.
He was very relaxed right now, without any bitterness or hatred, let alone any sense of responsibility or mission. His actions could naturally be based entirely on personal preference, and he was currently lacking in amusement.
The next morning, a "dong dong dong" knocking sound echoed outside the door.
Luo Yu lazily crawled out of the covers, his slippers even on the wrong feet. However, he didn't bother to change them back, and directly opened the door while stretching.
"Xiao Yu!" Shui Dongsheng stood excitedly outside the door, "I've gotten things sorted out with Skywater Academy for you. You can go report this afternoon."
"Oh? How did you manage to get that stubborn dean?" Luo Yu pretended to be surprised.
"Perhaps my recent sincerity moved her, or perhaps she just didn't want to offend me," Shui Dongsheng puffed out his burly chest. "In short, the academy sent someone early this morning with the notification, saying you've been accepted."
Luo Yu secretly rolled his eyes, moved by you? Didn't want to offend you? Hmph.
But this big beast seemed to be quite efficient in getting things done. He was a good beast who kept his promises.
"Here, this is for you." Shui Dongsheng flipped his hand, producing a gleaming butcher knife, startling Luo Yu.
"What's this for?"
Shui Dongsheng looked puzzled. "It came with the acceptance letter. It should be a weapon given by the academy, right?"
"Odd, why didn't Bing'er and Yue'er get one back then?"
Tsk tsk, I bet this blade was sent to you specifically. Luo Yu thought to himself.
The afternoon arrived quickly. A large procession set out from the Shui family, heading towards Skywater Academy.
"Uncle Shui? We're starting school, not going to war. Is this display really necessary?"
Luo Yu looked at the dozens of well-organized servants behind them, feeling utterly mortified.
"This is a must. When the Shui family sends a child to school, we need to make a statement, so no one dares to bully you at school."
Luo Yu said helplessly, "Am I that weak? Can anyone even bully me?"
Shui Dongsheng's eyes seemed to hold a deeper meaning as he shook his head.
Skywater Academy arrived.
