Gaowu invasion, I can see the future

79: Captain, are you resurrected? The Lei family suspected of being the murdererLiu Ruoxi stood on the track of the stadium at this moment.

She was dressed in a silver fringed evening gown, with the skirt gently draped, and her long hair cascaded like a waterfall over her shoulders, adorned with tiny crystal hairpins.

Her skin was as fair as snow, complementing the silver gown, making her appear even more aloof and unapproachable.

Around her neck, she wore an exquisite diamond necklace, its pendant sparkling under the lights, and on her wrist, a simple silver bracelet echoed the evening gown.

The surrounding students were all drawn by her stunning attire, whispering among themselves, their words somewhat restrained.

But the group chat had already exploded.

”Holy cow! My wife is so beautiful! I love her to death!”

”Get lost! She’s mine! We just confirmed our relationship yesterday.”

”Everyone, go wash up and sleep, stop dreaming. I’m taking her home to sleep tonight.”

”Damn it! Why is the party during summer vacation?”

”By the way, brothers, this outfit must be worth a fortune, right? I just searched, and it seems all of it is very expensive.”

”I heard that Goddess Liu Ruoxi’s family is super rich.”

”Really? I can’t tell at all normally.”

”That’s because she’s low-key! However, recently she’s been accompanied by bodyguards, and when she goes back, after leaving the school gate, she gets into a luxury car in a secluded place. I saw it before, and at first, I thought I was mistaken, but I confirmed it carefully.”

”Holy cow! Beautiful and rich, there’s no justice! I wish I had pursued her for three years.”

”Brother, that’s simping, not pursuing.”

Bai Yu had just finished taking photos for a souvenir, then glanced at the group chat before putting down his phone.

When he looked up, his eyes met Liu Ruoxi’s.

Liu Ruoxi’s gaze lingered slightly, her red lips parting with a faint, indifferent smile, neither overly warm nor cold, maintaining an appropriate distance.

Then her gaze shifted in other directions.

Wang Haobin noticed this and exclaimed, ”Good heavens! Don’t tell me you successfully captured the goddess when we weren’t looking?”

If that were the case, he’d be grinding his teeth to dust! The kind that turns into powder!

Mainly because Bai Yu was too mysterious now; it was genuinely possible.

Bai Yu came back to his senses and said, ”You’re overthinking it. It’s just that because of some things recently, we’ve met, and our relationship is neither warm nor cold.”

He knew clearly that Liu Ruoxi’s reaction was mainly because he was a member of the Seventh Group, and related to Liu Feifei and Qin Wanqing.

Before he could take another look, a voice suddenly came from behind him: ”You brat, you ran off in the blink of an eye?”

Bai Yu looked at Professor Wang Wen speechlessly, thinking, ’Damn it! You old man, why do you have to come and join the fun when we young people are having a party? I’m looking at a beautiful woman, and you just have to ruin the mood! I really want to beat you to death.’

Unexpectedly, Liu Ruoxi walked over and greeted him politely, saying, ”Hello, Professor Wang!”

Dressed so beautifully, she was the center of attention.

Seeing Liu Ruoxi address Professor Wang Wen as Professor, everyone couldn’t help but be curious. They had just thought this person was an old man, like a relative of a student.

After all, his tone of voice was very similar; there was no professorial demeanor whatsoever.

Professor Wang Wen looked at Liu Ruoxi. He had a close relationship with Liu Ruoxi’s father and had seen Liu Ruoxi many times.

Then he looked at Bai Yu, and a smile of relief suddenly appeared on his face, saying, ”Haha, so that’s how it is. If you two end up together, I’d be quite relieved.”

Hearing this, Liu Ruoxi, with her cool personality, didn’t react much.

Bai Yu also responded calmly to this, thinking, ’Say whatever you want, I’m not at a loss anyway.’

The people around were full of questions.

”What’s going on? Doesn’t the goddess have a boyfriend?”

”Can’t you tell this is a forced match?”

”Oh, oh, oh, I thought the flower already had dung on it.”

Hearing this, Bai Yu’s face darkened. He glared at the guy, already noting it down in his little book!

”By the way, who is that man?”

”I don’t know, but he’s definitely not worthy of the goddess, so no need to worry.”

Bai Yu, having had more exposure now, had a stable mindset and didn’t react much.

It was just that his fists hardened!

He roared internally: ’Damn it! It’s just that I don’t want to pursue her now, otherwise, I could take her down in minutes, okay? You guys would be envious and jealous.’

’Also, Professor Wang Wen, you old geezer, I really want to beat you to death!’

’And do you, old man, know how to play matchmaker? You’ll definitely kill any connection!’

’No! I don’t even like Liu Ruoxi, what are you barking about here?’

Thinking these thoughts, Bai Yu clenched his fists in anger, making popping sounds.

Professor Wang Wen then said, ”What? You brat, you want to make a move?”

”Come! I’ll stand right here.”

Bai Yu really couldn’t stand the old man’s thick skin and quickly said, ”Let’s go, let’s go, let’s leave quickly, don’t embarrass ourselves here, okay?”

Seeing Bai Yu’s awkward expression, Professor Wang Wen’s mood improved considerably.

After they were a bit further from the crowd, Professor Wang Wen said, ”By the way, I just contacted Old Feng. You two should have a good chat later.”

”...Alright, alright! I’ll listen to your arrangements, old man.”

”Oh, also, that thing of yours is really effective. Tell me more about the effects after your recent use, I’ll record it.”

Bai Yu clenched his fists but still held back.

”Alright! I’ll tell you everything, hold nothing back.”

Soon, the party officially began.

Since it was a student party, it wasn’t particularly high-end; everyone was mainly there for the atmosphere, to commemorate their youth.

As for Bai Yu, he silently watched the two old men beside him!

My youth is these two things?

Sigh ~ How unlucky!

Getting back to the main topic, Professor Feng immediately apologized for the previous incident and even brought some lightning-attribute Cultivation items.

Bai Yu saw that Professor Wang Wen had worked hard to bridge the gap and agreed to the apology, accepting the gift.

Of course, an easy reconciliation often means there are still barriers, which will take a long time to eliminate.

Afterward, Bai Yu didn’t stand on ceremony and directly took out the Thunder Strike Talisman, discussing the mathematical calculations of the inscription patterns with Professor Feng.

This immediately caught Professor Feng’s attention.

”Your mathematical graphic calculation method is truly creative! This pattern, if I quickly draw it according to your algorithm, will definitely be effective.”

”By the way, when making this pattern, you don’t need to draw it too standardly for it to work. I currently don’t know anyone who has calculated the original diagram of an inscription using mathematical methods. How did you find the original diagram?”

Professor Feng not knowing doesn’t mean that no one in the current world has calculated it using mathematical algorithms.

It’s just that the current world is not at a life-or-death juncture, and the extraordinary Domain has not yet reached a state of complete interconnectedness; everyone keeps a trick up their sleeve.

Bai Yu had already thought of an excuse and said, ”That piece of wood in the laboratory.”

Professor Feng heard that and thought, ’The thunder scepter!’

When he saw this item, he felt it was absolutely not simple.

Professor Feng had long forgotten the minor conflict and excitedly asked, ”Do you have calculations for original diagrams of other inscriptions?”

Bai Yu sighed deeply after hearing this: ”Sigh ~ Is this a place for research?”

Professor Feng’s first reaction was: ”You’re right! This occasion isn’t suitable. How about going to Old Wang’s laboratory? We can talk all night!”

Bai Yu’s eyes widened.

???

Holy cow! Is that what I meant?

I want to enjoy the party! Not accompany two old men.

Professor Feng quickly reacted, then looked at the dance performance on stage and said, ”What’s so good about this? It’s not even as good as the square dancing by the roadside.”

This isn’t good? Do you have a young person’s aesthetic!

And what rotten square dancing!

But those few crosstalk acts were indeed awkward, and they weren’t from Tianjin.

Bai Yu: ”...How about we find another time? Like tomorrow.”

Seeing that Bai Yu really didn’t want to talk, Professor Feng was a bit disappointed. His conflict with Bai Yu had just eased.

If Old Wang talked with Bai Yu, it might continue.

But his relationship with Bai Yu was awkward, so he couldn’t force it.

He could only say, ”How about tomorrow morning? I’ll come to your bureau’s office.”

”Alright.”

Professor Wang Wen, on the other hand, was quite leisurely. Anyway, he had already understood the Red Horse Herb Potion production method and was just waiting to experiment tonight!

He had already gained something.

It was Old Feng who had only understood one inscription, and now his interest was strongly piqued by the mathematical algorithm of the inscription, but there was no follow-up!

’Hahaha ~ Old Feng must be dying of anxiety inside.’

’He deserves it! Bai Yu is a treasure, and you had to misunderstand him.’

’Wouldn’t it have been better to honestly state your doubts back then? Now it’s not so easy~’

Bai Yu finally got rid of the two old professors and could relax a bit! He went downstairs and joined Zhang Youpeng and the others, raising their glow sticks, joining the party.

This was probably one of his rare Mortal memories for a long time to come.

The two old professors looked at the atmosphere in the stadium and found it quite interesting, so they didn’t mention doing research or anything.

They went down and sat with the young people.

The twenty-seventh program was a song by Liu Ruoxi, a tribute to youth.

“Woohoo~ Goddess! Goddess!”

“Come on!”

“Ruoxi! I love you~”

“Love you (づ￣ 3￣)づ╭～”

Professor Wang Wen saw this scene and instantly became interested. He patted Bai Yu on the shoulder and said, “How about it? Do you want me to give you a hand? Otherwise, she might get snatched away.”

Bai Yu rolled his eyes and shook his head, “Forget it. Just don’t cause trouble, Old Man.”

“Oh? So you mean you want to pursue her?”

“Not for now.”

Bai Yu’s words were very honest.

His previous life was definitely not as comfortable as his current one.

Now that he had met such a beautiful woman with such a unique temperament, it was naturally captivating.

But he was a relatively rational person. In this extraordinary world, with the future invasion of Odd Gods, the coming of the apocalypse, and the fall of base cities, survival itself was a problem. How could he have time to enjoy a life of ease?

He wasn’t the type to casually date and then break up.

When Liu Ruoxi sang, many people went up to give her flowers.

At first, it was a few girls, but when boys started going up later, the whole venue began to cheer.

At this moment, one person caught Bai Yu’s attention.

It was the leader of the group Sun Yi was with, a man with a few strands of purple hair.

Seeing Bai Yu’s unusual expression, Professor Wang Wen, with the look of an experienced person, smiled and said, “This is someone from the Lei Family, named Lei Wenjie. You finally have a rival, kid! If you’re not proactive, it might be a bit difficult.”

Hearing “Lei Family,” Bai Yu couldn’t help but be stunned.

His heart fluttered a little. Holy crap! He finally met someone from the Lei Family.

And could it be that this guy sent the Blood Clan Modified Creature to attack Liu Ruoxi?

His gaze followed Lei Wenjie as he walked off the stage, looking at Sun Yi and the others.

His eyes narrowed slightly, and he felt that this possibility was absolutely real!

If he could use this lead to gradually uncover the big fish that was the Lei Family, it would be a good thing!

With this thought, Bai Yu took out his phone and took photos of Lei Wenjie and the others, to confirm whether this group would be missing anyone after the Blood Clan Modified Creature attack occurred.

Professor Wang Wen saw this scene and said, “What’s wrong? Are you planning to fight them, kid?”

His voice was a bit loud, and Sun Yao and the others couldn’t help but look over, wondering what was going on.

Bai Yu said speechlessly, “Professor, how old are you! Can you stop spouting nonsense, or you’ll end up in a mental hospital. Of course, if the doctor comes looking, I can sign for you, no need to worry.”

“Hey~! How dare you talk to me like that, kid? If I go in, I’ll demand that you accompany me!”

“I’ll accompany you for nothing!”

Professor Feng, who was nearby, also smiled at this scene.

These two guys!

Bai Yu thought for a moment and quietly asked the two professors, “By the way, that guy Lei Wenjie seems to have more than ten extraordinary individuals gathered around him. Which faction are they from? I haven’t seen them before.”

Professor Wang Wen understood this point and said, “A small team from the Yunbei District Investigation Bureau, supported by the Lei Family. Why are you suddenly asking about this, kid?”

“An old roommate I haven’t seen in years is among them, so I’m a bit curious.”

After speaking, Bai Yu sat back, took out his phone, and inserted the contact card for the group.

Seventh Team First Combat Squad Group Chat.

Bai Yu sent a message: “The party is almost over. What’s your arrangement?”

Li Yunbin: “We’ve already contacted Liu Ruoxi’s driver. We’ll hide in her car.”

“??? Holy crap! Captain, you’re back?”

“Hehe~ I heard that someone wanted to usurp my position when I wasn’t around. If I didn’t come back to life, wouldn’t I have to hear: ’Team Leader, why are you rebelling?’”

Bai Yu saw this message and laughed, thinking, “Is this the team leader himself?”

“Uh, it definitely wasn’t me who tried to usurp. Also, who said that nonsense?”

After a few playful exchanges.

Li Yunbin asked, “Do you have a way to confirm the strength of the attacker now?”

“I only know it’s a blood clan modifier. The risk isn’t particularly high. Even if we don’t act, someone will step in to resolve it. Oh, right! Captain, if you act, that person might not show up. You must pay attention to who it is.”

“Okay, you be careful too.”

“Don’t worry, Professor Wang Wen and Professor Feng are both with me. That’s like ten bodyguards combined.”

“It seems you’ve done some big things again, kid.”

Li Yunbin was still worried that Bai Yu and Professor Feng’s relationship wouldn’t mend.

Who knew, it was resolved in one night.

10:20 PM.

The last program of the party was a chorus.

As it was about to end, the venue became lively.

Bai Yu, Zhang Youpeng, and the others stood up, preparing to leave.

“By the way, where are you two planning to stay tonight?”

Zhang Youpeng thought for a moment and said, “I’ll be staying at school for now, it’s more convenient.”

“I’m also planning to stay in the dorm tonight. Why don’t you come along?”

Bai Yu shook his head and refused, “I’ll pass on that. I have a ton of things to do every day.”

Wang Haobin really wanted to ask what they were, but he knew he wouldn’t get an answer.

In fact, from Bai Yu’s interactions with the two professors today, it was clear that Bai Yu was definitely on a research path, and he was quite capable!

Otherwise, it would be impossible to have the two professors so awestruck.

As the few of them walked and chatted, the two professors followed behind, also chatting about this and that.

Further behind were Wu Hao and Li Wan’er.

Tonight, Li Wan’er’s gaze kept drifting towards Bai Yu and the two professors, intentionally or unintentionally.

Her thoughts became increasingly complex!

After understanding the extraordinary world, her ambition was naturally ignited.

Originally, in the Mortal world, finding a rich second-generation like Wu Hao felt like her limit. She thought her future life would be good, and there was no need to pursue too much.

But once in the extraordinary world, Wu Hao was also at the bottom, while her down-and-out ex-boyfriend had become a person of status!

She found this psychological gap difficult to accept for a while.

The day before yesterday, after Bai Yu went to the gym, she learned in the extraordinary group that Bai Yu’s current status was much, much higher than she had imagined!

Now, Bai Yu was chatting and laughing with the two professors, and she had learned from Wu Hao that these two professors were powerful researchers in the extraordinary Domain, with very high status!

She even felt that a few words from Bai Yu now could elevate her to a new height.

But she had actually missed it!!!

How could she accept this?

‘Why am I so unlucky!?’

‘If only I had held on a little longer back then?’

‘He doesn’t seem to be dating anyone else yet. Do I still have a chance? Based on how well I know him, I should.’

Just as Li Wan’er’s gaze was fixed on Bai Yu, her thoughts complex, Wu Hao suddenly said calmly, “Let’s just stop here.”

Li Wan’er was distracted at the moment and instinctively replied, “Okay.”

But then she realized the meaning of his words, her eyes widening as she looked at Wu Hao.

“Why!?”

Wu Hao glanced at Bai Yu, then looked at Li Wan’er, and then said calmly, “You actually have your good points, you’re smart and understand people’s hearts. But there’s one major flaw that you can’t hide, and that is… your ambitions are as high as the sky, but your fate is as thin as paper. You can’t see reality clearly and don’t understand your own position.”

Why did he tell Li Wan’er the identities of the two professors? He knew that doing so might exacerbate Li Wan’er’s inner disparity, but he just said it.

Because he wanted to do it!

He wanted to see how severe Li Wan’er’s vanity was.

Li Wan’er was also a smart person. Hearing this, she instantly understood.

She suddenly felt… her world had collapsed!

She had always thought about what she could get from Bai Yu, but she had never considered that if she lost Wu Hao, she wouldn’t even have the funds to improve her strength at the gym.

Thinking of this, various emotions mixed together, and tears flowed down her face.

“Don’t be like this~!”

Because Li Wan’er’s voice was a bit loud, everyone’s attention was drawn to her.

Just by listening to the content, they all knew it was a breakup.

Everyone loved to watch such a spectacle.

Wang Haobin, sensing gossip, said, “Your ex-girlfriend seems to be heartbroken.”

“Heartbroken is heartbroken. Who cares about her.”

“Aren’t you going to comfort her? There’s a move called taking advantage of the situation.”

“Bah! Not familiar. There’s also a move called the Ruthless Dao. I don’t want to get involved. Why don’t you go help me out?”

“If my girlfriend wasn’t here—”

Sun Yao said “fiercely,” “If I wasn’t here, what would you want to do?”

“Cough cough, definitely nothing.”
