"Calling people? Who are you calling?"
Ma Xiaotao was a little confused.
"Of course, it's my Teacher~" Bai Zhou chuckled.
"Ah? Isn't Dean Xian busy?" Ma Xiaotao exclaimed, a little bewildered.
Although Bai Zhou didn't say.
But for something as important as advancing, Bai Zhou came to her instead of his Teacher. This must mean Xian Liner has something even more important to do.
Otherwise, with how much Xian Liner dotes on Bai Zhou, she definitely wouldn't fail to come help.
"Actually, I just felt that Teacher was too engrossed in her research, so I didn't disturb her~"
Bai Zhou explained.
"Idiot, then why didn't you say so earlier? And you clearly knew I couldn't help you get your fourth spirit ring, yet you still rejected Senior Disciple???"
Ma Xiaotao immediately became a little angry, and also felt a bit guilty. So she grabbed Bai Zhou and fiercely pinched his face.
Ma Xiaotao also felt a bit embarrassed at this moment. She had made a confident promise before, but now she had to ask Bai Zhou to call for help...
She originally wanted to take this opportunity to properly display her strength and put on a big show for Bai Zhou.
But she didn't expect to back down before even starting.
This made her feel a bit mortified.
"Hehe, wasn't I just trying to give Little Tao a few extra days off, so I could spend more time with you too~"
Bai Zhou chuckled, then actively cupped Ma Xiaotao's face and gave her a loud kiss.
"Hmph, fine... I'll forgive you this time..." Ma Xiaotao felt dizzy all over at this moment, and a strange sense of happiness surged in her heart.
So, Bai Zhou rejected Zhang Lexuan to spend more time with her...
Although she knew Bai Zhou mainly wanted to do bad things, she didn't mind... And this was her first time openly dating Bai Zhou outside, it was the most unforgettable memory.
Seeing that Bai Zhou did it for her sake, she would reluctantly forgive Bai Zhou this time.
"Right, this is so far from Shrek City, how are you going to contact Dean Xian with a Microcard?"
Seeing Bai Zhou take out his Microcard, Ma Xiaotao asked curiously.
Although Microcard were one per person in the Inner Courtyard and were gradually becoming popular in the Outer Courtyard and Shrek City, the communication range was still limited. The range could only be confined to one city, and it wouldn't work if it was too far.
"Hmm... My Microcard is a bit special, it has a longer transmission distance, but it can't be mass-produced."
Bai Zhou casually made up an excuse.
Immediately, he ran into the small woods and started sending messages to Xian Liner...
Because he knew that Xian Liner had been secretly protecting him.
...
Bai Zhou originally didn't know that Xian Liner would follow, so before this, he prepared a fire spirit pearl for Ma Xiaotao, for Ma Xiaotao to use as a one-time burst item.
Now that Xian Liner was here, the fire spirit pearl could be slowly absorbed by Ma Xiaotao, so it wouldn't be wasted.
Moreover, last night he lost an army of one hundred million at Xian Liner's place...
He couldn't let this hundred million army sacrifice themselves in vain, he had to make Xian Liner pay the price!!!
...
In the distance.
Xian Liner, hidden in the dense forest, saw this whole scene.
"This little rascal, he's really slick-tongued..."
Xian Liner watched as Bai Zhou, with just a few words, made Ma Xiaotao incredibly moved, and she was speechless.
However, she also had to admit that Bai Zhou's charm was truly astonishing.
If Bai Zhou treated her like this, she would also instantly soften like Ma Xiaotao...
And, Bai Zhou did work hard last night, although it was miserable.
But she felt very good.
So today was also exceptionally relaxed, and she didn't care about Bai Zhou and Ma Xiaotao's matters.
She was also very happy to help with Bai Zhou's request.
...
After Bai Zhou sent the message, Xian Liner deliberately delayed for half an hour before "arriving late."
"Xiao Tao greets Dean Xian!"
Upon seeing Xian Liner, Ma Xiaotao quickly bowed respectfully.
This was out of respect for a Titled Douluo.
Of course, she was also a little nervous in her heart, afraid that her relationship with Bai Zhou would be discovered by Xian Liner.
She still felt a bit guilty about this, after all, Bai Zhou was considered by her Teacher to be the most talented monster in Shrek's thousands of years, and his future achievements would definitely far surpass hers.
And she had seduced Bai Zhou away...
If it was discovered, she didn't know if Xian Liner would be angry, or if she would go fight with her Teacher...
Of course, if Ma Xiaotao knew what happened last night, she probably wouldn't think this way...
...
"No need for such courtesy, my troublesome Disciple has bothered you."
Xian Liner nodded lightly, appearing extremely aloof.
Immediately after, she gently glared at Bai Zhou, the meaning obvious - behave yourself, don't cause trouble.
"No, no, Xiao Bai is very well-behaved~"
Ma Xiaotao waved her hands repeatedly and even spoke up for Bai Zhou.
Then she said with some self-blame: "It's just that my strength isn't enough, I might not be able to help him obtain the most suitable spirit ring..."
"Alright, let's go, I'll take you in. Xiao Bai's fourth spirit ring can absorb one around forty thousand years. When we encounter a suitable Spirit Beast, you two will attack together. If you encounter a life-threatening situation, I will step in."
Xian Liner continued.
"Ah? Xiao Bai and me together?" Ma Xiaotao was immediately a little confused, pointing to herself, and then to Bai Zhou.
"You underestimate him too much. This kid has hidden his strength. Although he is only a Spirit Elder, he definitely has the combat power of a Spirit Emperor."
Xian Liner directly revealed Bai Zhou's secret.
As a Titled Douluo, after multiple close-range "body examinations" of Bai Zhou, she naturally knew his strength like the back of her hand.
Moreover, she might have underestimated him.
If he went all out, this kid might even reach the combat power of a high-level Spirit Emperor.
"What! That strong!!!"
Ma Xiaotao immediately covered her small mouth, obviously also greatly shocked.
No wonder Bai Zhou was so fierce. She always thought Bai Zhou's Physique surpassed normal people, but she didn't expect that Bai Zhou's strength was also so powerful!
"Not at all, I rarely fight~"
Bai Zhou quickly said humbly.
"Alright, let me see your true strength today. Don't expect me to act unless it's a matter of life and death."
Xian Liner, however, completely ignored Bai Zhou's humility and directly made the decision.
"Okay..."
Bai Zhou was a little speechless.
It wasn't that he was intentionally hiding his strength, he just didn't really like this kind of fighting and killing.
Killing and fighting day after day was really meaningless.
He wasn't lacking resources, nor did he have any enemies. Fighting was tiring and dangerous, there was no joy at all, and the gains were basically zero.
Moreover, how could fighting be as comfortable as sleeping with a soft girlfriend in his arms?
The three of them entered the Star Dou Great Forest.
Because of Xian Liner's presence, Ma Xiaotao deliberately kept some distance from Bai Zhou, lest Bai Zhou make any strange moves that would be discovered.
Xian Liner, on the other hand, held Bai Zhou's hand openly. When encountering danger, she would hold Bai Zhou in her arms to protect him, acting very naturally.
After all, she was Bai Zhou's Teacher. Holding Bai Zhou's hand allowed her to protect Bai Zhou better, and hugging him occasionally was not a problem at all.
Seeing this, Ma Xiaotao didn't have much of a reaction, thinking it was very normal, and even felt a little envious...
Because she found that Xian Liner's doting on Bai Zhou was even better than her Teacher's treatment of her...
