Chapter 255 I won’t team up with you

Xuewu sighed helplessly: "Tell me your idea first, I'll listen to it... If you don't want to take risks, I can agree."

Shui Bing'er looked at her straight in the eyes, and unlike her previous coquettish and naughty behavior, she said in an unyielding tone: "You clearly know everything in your heart and know my next plan. Why are you pretending to be ignorant and asking me?"

"Anyway, I must do this..."

Xuewu felt that she must not have checked the almanac before going out today, otherwise, why would she have encountered such big trouble, especially with Shui Bing'er.

There was no way to deal with her, so after thinking about it, Xuewu said, "We'll just go find the elders of Tianshui College along the way."

"If you meet other soul masters on the road, you can give them some advice, but no matter what decision they make, don't interfere."

"In addition, we will not go out of our way to help everyone. As long as we meet the elders of Tianshui College, we will tell them the matter."

"Let the elders decide everything else. Our mission is complete. Come back to Tianshui College with me immediately."

"Don't cause any trouble during this period. If you agree, then we will act now. If you don't agree, let's compete with each other."

"You know, although you are extremely talented, I am not bad either. I can spend some time with you here."

Shui Bing'er shook her head: "I know you are saying this for my own good, do you really think I am stupid?"

"I'm not the kind of pushover who would choose to give up my own life to help others blindly."

"Don't worry, I will listen to you and ensure the safety of both of us."

Xuewu looked at Shui Bing'er and chuckled twice. Shui Bing'er quickly continued, "We are just on the way to find the elders. If we really meet other soul masters, we will find them."

"I'll just give you a reminder. I won't do more than that... After all, protecting yourself is the most important thing before protecting others."

Xuewu finally heaved a sigh of relief, and it was clear that she was much more relaxed. "It's really great that you said that!"

The two girls were discussing here as if they were alone, while Lu Yu on the other side looked at them and asked them a somewhat fatal question.

"You two want to go find your teachers at Tianshui College. I understand your feelings very well."

"But I want to ask you two, how are you going to find it? Are you just relying on your strength?"

"The Sunset Forest is extremely large. Can you make sure you know which direction your elders went?"

"If you encounter other mutant soul beasts or powerful soul beasts during this process, how will you two deal with them?"

"You won't exhaust all your soul power, and in the end you won't even be able to kill the soul beast, and end up being buried in the soul beast's stomach, right?"

Hearing Lu Yu's words, the two of them turned their heads to look at him, anger in their eyes, although they had not really thought about this question just now.

But this man, why didn't he just speak nicely, but chose such harsh words... But after listening to Lu Yu's words, the two of them felt that what he said made sense. In fact, the reason why the two of them didn't think of the danger today.

It was also because they were anxious to rescue the elders of Tianshui College, so they did not consider it so comprehensively.

Now that Lu Yu reminded them of this, the two of them realized that it would be too risky for them to join other soul master teams and they would easily be cheated.

But if they didn't go in to save people, their elder would most likely be in danger or even seriously injured... Faced with such an outcome, the two of them were suddenly at a loss.

But when they saw Lu Yu, an idea suddenly came to their mind. Shui Bing'er looked in the direction of Xue Wu, and Xue Wu happened to turn her head and look at her.

The two of them had bright looks in their eyes. Shui Bing'er then stared at Lu Yu and said, "Why don't you two form a soul master team with us and go into the forest with us."

"Rescue the soul masters inside... Of course, don't worry, we at Tianshui Academy won't let you work for us in vain."

"Once our elder successfully escapes from inside, the thank-you gift from our Tianshui College will definitely be huge."

Xuewu also kept looking at Lu Yu's face, and the expectant expression could no longer be hidden. Lu Yu did not want to take the risk - why would he go there if he knew there was a tiger there?

There is nothing wrong with his brain. Besides, there is no friendship between them. Although he admires the other party, if his own interests are harmed, he will definitely prioritize his own interests.

So Lu Yu shook his head and said with some regret: "I'm really sorry, my teammates are too tired, we have to rest here."

"Besides, we have our own things to do after this, so we won't team up with you!"

"Don't you have a team? Why don't you just join them..."

Shui Bing'er didn't expect that Lu Yu would refuse so decisively. When she heard this, her eyes widened instantly, somewhat unbelievably, and looked in Lu Yu's direction.

"You actually don't agree to team up with us. Can you bear to see so many soul masters in danger in the Sunset Forest?"

"You clearly have the opportunity to help them, why are you unwilling to do it? Haven't you heard that saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda?"

"If you save them, they will be very grateful to you, why don't you go?"

Lu Yu raised the corners of his lips, smiled slightly, and explained: "You are right, but I still don't want to go."

Shui Bing'er seemed to have never seen such a person who was so inflexible, not to mention that she was in Tianshui College, where she was always treated like a baby.

How could someone reject you so straightforwardly? Shui Bing'er was a little shocked. She looked at Lu Yu and said, "It's not without benefits for you to team up with us. Didn't I already say that?"

"If we successfully find the elders of Tianshui College, we will definitely thank you when we return."

"You just need to leave your name and address. Don't worry, we at Tianshui College will never go back on our word."

Lu Yu still nodded, and then said firmly: "I've already said that we won't go."

Looking at Shui Bing'er's angry look, Lu Yu thought for a moment and explained, "A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. Have you heard this saying?"

"So, now that I've come out of the Sunset Forest, I have no intention of going back."

"Besides, I also have my teammates by my side. I can't let her fall into danger just because of my own selfishness."

Hearing Lu Yu's words, Shui Bing'er and Xue Wu subconsciously looked at Luo Shen who was sleeping soundly beside them.

For a moment, the two girls couldn't tell whether they were envious or something else, but they both felt that Luo Shen was happy to have a friend like Lu Yu who cared about her.

He considers everything for her, which is really enviable...but they are also good friends to each other.

Although they envied Lu Yu and He Luoshen, they were not jealous. Instead, they smiled at each other tacitly. Seeing that Lu Yu refused to agree, Shui Bing'er thought about it and knew that the other party's thoughts might not be easily changed.

So he didn't continue to pester her, but turned to look at Xuewu beside him and asked, "If it's just the two of us going in, would you be afraid?"

Xuewu had known for a long time that this little girl would not give up. Since she would not give up, she could not just let her go to the Sunset Forest alone to take risks.

He must stay with her, so Xuewu was about to nod and say that she would stay with her till the end... but Lu Yu on the side suddenly spoke up.

"Although I understand your desire to save people, you two clearly know that there is danger in the Sunset Forest."

"Even this danger is not something that people with your spiritual power cultivation can contend with at all."

"Why must we go in and experience difficulties and dangers? It would be better to..."

Before Lu Yu finished speaking, Shui Bing'er interrupted him: "Humph, just now you said that you can't force your friend because of your own reasons."

"I guess you also value your companions very much. If that's the case, how could you not understand what we are thinking now?"

"Those are our teammates too. How can we just watch them fall into danger and not help them?"

Lu Yu shook his head and continued to finish what he had not finished saying: "Don't be anxious, listen to me first."

"...If you go, not only will you not be able to help, but you will also become a burden to the other party, making them even more constrained."

"Even everyone was able to step forward to fight the danger, but now they are doing it to protect you two."

"At least one person is unable to devote his whole heart and soul to the battle, which will result in their strength being reduced!"

"Do you two really think that your presence can play a positive role?"

"Besides, I'm not asking you to ignore the friendship between brothers and sisters, but because you also said it."

"All the people who went there were elders. In my opinion, those who can become elders must have a certain level of profound cultivation."

"I guess they must have seen and solved a lot of problems in their daily lives."

"So, facing the sudden danger and crisis, even someone like me with low soul power cultivation can do it."

"They can all figure it out. Do you think there is anyone among the elders in your family who can figure it out?"

"Once they figure this out, they will definitely return immediately, even faster than us."

"So maybe you haven't found them yet, and they've already come out."

"When the two groups of people go astray, they will be the ones to worry about your safety and return to the Sunset Forest."

"Going to look for the two of you... This will not only waste more time, but will also put all of you in greater danger."

"So if you ask me, the wisest thing for you to do now is to return to Tianshui College immediately."

"Tell your dean about this situation. I believe your dean has a better solution than you."

"I know how to ensure the safety of the elders in the academy..."

"When the time comes, we will send people to the Sunset Forest to look for him, or find a way to meet him, using some special methods..."

"In short, he has many ways to do this, and the force he can dispatch is definitely greater than the two of you."

"The rescue effect that can be achieved must be better than yours. This is your best choice right now."

As soon as Lu Yu finished speaking, the eyes of the two girls opposite him lit up instantly - Shui Bing'er said with some excitement.

"What the hell is wrong with your brain? You're so smart."

"And your idea is simply too good, why didn't we think of it?"

Xuewu also echoed, "Yes, we should go back to the dean and report all the current situations to him."

"The dean is so capable, there must be a solution!"

Lu Yu looked at the two girls, their excited expressions, and felt a little amused.

There is a saying in the previous world and the world under One Person: "Leave professional matters to professionals!"

Things that we are not good at should naturally be left to professionals. This is not because we are cowardly, but because professionals will do better than us and think more comprehensively than us. The results they can achieve in the end will also exceed our imagination.

The two girls have already thought of a solution. They looked at Lu Yu again, their eyes were all sparkling with admiration, and they stopped talking nonsense.

Shui Bing'er took a step forward, looked at Lu Yu and said, "Thank you for what happened today. I owe you a favor."

"Don't worry, I will definitely repay you when I have the chance in the future."

Lu Yu curved his lips upwards and said to Shui Bing'er, "I'm helping you not for your reward, so you don't have to be grateful to me."

But Shui Bing'er shook her head seriously and said solemnly: "I don't need to be grateful, it's your business, but I have received your kindness and I can't forget it."

"If I don't thank you, my conscience will be uneasy... By the way, what's your name?"

Xuewu, who was standing by, also followed Shui Bing'er and walked a few steps towards Lu Yu. The hostility she had towards Lu Yu when he came over had long since disappeared.

She didn't expect that the boy she met in the Sunset Forest would be so quick-witted and willing to help them. He was really good!

He had considered them in every word and action, so if they wanted to thank him now, he didn’t have to…it seemed like he had no designs on them.

This behavior is too rare... But they are not the kind of people who would not repay a favor, so Xuewu said: "We are in a hurry to get on the road today and will leave here soon, so we can't thank you."
