Chapter 23: The Beloved Little White
Lu Jin let out a long howl.
With an amplified terrifying aura, ignoring the annoying minions in front of him, he charged towards the few veteran Quanxing masters who were the most dangerous and ruthless!
Each strike was accompanied by the sound of wind and thunder.
The old ghosts were forced to use various supernatural abilities to retreat repeatedly, their expressions changing drastically.
"Something's not right!"
"Let's kill that brat behind me who's using 'sorcery magic' to help us out first!"
In the chaos, one of the cunning Quanxing members let out a hoarse shout.
This shout was extremely inflammatory, immediately turning the eyes of many hot-blooded and impetuous Quanxing henchmen red. They roared and turned around, rushing towards Lu Xiaobai, who was heavily protected and radiant, without regard for anything else!
"Kill him! Kill that little brat!"
"Charge!"
However, including the guy who yelled and many experienced and cunning old men surnamed Quan, when they saw that there were really hotheads foolishly rushing into the impenetrable wall formed by dozens of elite employees of Anywhere, they were shocked.
Instead of following, their eyes darted around.
They silently slipped oil under their feet and began to retreat stealthily towards the edge of the battlefield, searching for an escape route.
joke!
It's instinctive to seek advantage and avoid harm!
Staying and fighting head-on is clearly a dead end!
Of course, there are always some fools who don't believe in evil or are really blinded by passion who rush over, and then, without any suspense, are overwhelmed and knocked down by the tacit cooperation of the employees of Na Du Tong and the delaying magic that Lu Xiaobai casually adds.
The battle lasted only a dozen minutes, but the situation had already changed dramatically.
The ground was littered with Quanxing members lying haphazardly, some groaning and others unconscious, far outnumbering those standing.
Although the number of members of the Quanxing sect is large,
But they were just a motley crew, each with their own agenda and poor teamwork.
On the other hand, the righteous side, with Lu Jin, a top-tier warrior among the Ten Elders, leading the charge, swept through the enemy with overwhelming force.
And then there's Feng Baobao, this highly efficient "human-shaped self-propelled knockout machine," creating chaos in the enemy ranks.
Furthermore, Lu Xiaobai, the "support daddy," provides terrifying all-around buffs, including strength, defense, speed, healing, recovery, and many more.
With one side gaining and the other losing,
The defeat of Quanxing was inevitable; it was only a matter of time.
Seeing that the situation was settled, Lu Xiaobai finally lowered his raised right hand, and the staff disappeared into thin air.
He let out a long sigh, a few beads of sweat appearing on his forehead.
Then, he moved his right hand slightly, and a dark blue liquid, seemingly imbued with magic, appeared out of thin air in his hand.
He uncorked the bottle.
I took a small, careful sip.
As soon as the liquid entered his mouth, his tightly furrowed brows relaxed slightly, and his somewhat exhausted spirit seemed to be relieved considerably.
"Little White, how are you? Did you use up too much energy?"
Xu San, who had been keeping an eye on him, quickly stepped forward, his face showing concern.
"The situation is under control; the remaining small fry can't cause any trouble. We've already notified the guys on the perimeter to intercept the dozen or so who escaped. You should rest for a bit!"
Lu Xiaobai nodded, not trying to be brave.
He put away the test tubes, silently walked to a relatively clean spot against a dilapidated wall, and slowly sat down.
He leaned against the cold wall, breathing slightly, his gaze fixed on the battlefield that had just experienced fierce fighting and was now gradually returning to silence.
The smoke of battle had not completely dissipated.
The air was filled with a mixture of dust, blood, and lingering qi and magic.
The employees of NaDuTong began to skillfully clean up the battlefield, capture prisoners, or treat the wounded.
Grandpa Lu Jin was talking to Xu Si, occasionally glancing at Lu Xiaobai resting in the corner, while Feng Baobao squatted in the corner, curiously poking the unconscious man she had rescued.
Lu Linglong and Zhi Jinhua were checking each other's bruises and abrasions, while Yun was wiping his long sword beside them.
The noise faded away,
All that remained was the exhaustion and devastation of the battle.
Indeed, I still need to heal my damaged soul power and magical essence as soon as possible...
Lu Xiaobai gently stroked his chest.
Feeling a slight backlash from the unrestrained use of magic within his body, accompanied by stinging pains, he couldn't help but take another sip of the deep blue potion.
The cool sensation from the liquid gradually eased the pain in my chest.
Lu Xiaobai closed his eyes and regulated his breathing.
He calmed the faint magical emptiness and slight stinging sensation emanating from his body.
The cool sensation of the deep blue liquid slowly spread through my body, repairing the burden brought on by the spell.
However, the tranquility did not last long.
He keenly sensed the increasing, deliberately quieter footsteps coming from all around him, and a dazzling feeling of being the focus of countless gazes, which he could feel even with his eyes closed.
Lu Xiaobai was huddled in the corner.
Her long eyelashes fluttered, and she slowly opened her eyes.
What came into view was a large group of young faces led by Lu Linglong—the younger generation of the Lu family, Zhi Jinhua, Bai Shixue, and many curious employees of Nadutong.
They had somehow gotten close enough to approach.
They were all staring at him with eyes full of inquiry, surprise, and even a touch of admiration, as if he were some rare animal.
Surrounded by dozens of scorching gazes, Lu Xiaobai subconsciously shrank his neck, even temporarily forgetting the lingering slight pain in his chest.
"What are you doing? What are you looking at?"
He stood up, chin slightly raised, and said in a tone that was both lively and unmistakably arrogant, "Haven't you ever seen the heroic figure of this magical genius?"
He patted his outdated, tacky work uniform.
But this did not diminish the unique aura he exuded, an invisible "radiance" that blended youthful spirit with the mystique of magic.
"If you keep looking, I might start charging you!"
His words only made things worse; once he said them, the "starlight" in everyone's eyes shone even brighter!
They were filled with boundless curiosity about this mysterious "foreign superhuman" whose identity was shrouded in mystery and whose methods were incredibly cool.
The magic circles that appeared out of thin air, the superpowers that tore through space, the assistance that could instantly turn the tide of battle... each one challenged their understanding.
What's more, the protagonist who performed these miracles also possesses a face that can be described as "peerless beauty".
She has a proud and lively personality, but her sense of justice explodes when it matters most. Now, she carries a vulnerable air of being "battle-damaged"...
Who wouldn't be curious after seeing this?
Who wouldn't feel concern and longing after seeing this?
"Wow, Xiaobai!" Zhi Jinhua was the first to come forward with a big smile, deliberately putting on an exaggerated expression of admiration.
"You were so cool just now! Can I add you on WeChat? Please! I'll send you a big red envelope!"
In response, Lu Xiaobai slightly turned her head and let out a haughty snort from her nose: "Hmph!"
That "humph" was like a bucket of cold water poured over everyone's heads. The excitement on everyone's faces instantly vanished, replaced by disappointment, as they thought it was all over.
However, just when everyone was dejected and thought the matter had been dropped—
With lightning speed, Lu Xiaobai quickly pulled his phone out of his pocket, his finger leaving a blur on the screen.
Then, he stretched out his arm.
They shoved the screen right in front of everyone, and there was a WeChat QR code on it!
He raised his chin and emphasized with self-righteousness:
"Red envelope! I want a big red envelope! Otherwise, I'll delete you!"
Good guy!
The crowd was stunned at first, then erupted into an even bigger commotion!
Who would have thought that this magical genius, with his extraordinary temperament and unfathomable strength, is actually a little money-grubber at heart?! This "unbelievable character" has been given another brilliant twist!
"I'll add it! The big red envelope is coming right away!"
"Hey, wait for me! Don't push me!"
"Hey Xiaobai, look at me! I'll send you a thousand yuan!"
"I'll send two thousand! No, three thousand! And give me a really nice note!"
Instantly, the crowd descended into chaos once more, with shouts rising and falling so loudly they nearly lifted the roof off.
The tense atmosphere of the life-or-death struggle vanished, replaced by pure, vibrant joy.
"Hehe," Xu Si chuckled as he watched the noisy, star-studded scene from a distance. "Little Bai is destined to be the darling of everyone wherever he goes."
Xu San silently watched the figure surrounded by people in the center of the crowd, a hint of smugness on her face, yet trying hard to maintain her arrogance. Her gaze was complex.
"Perhaps... that's the biggest difference between him and 'the other him.' If that hadn't happened... maybe Xiaobai would be the same as he is now..."
Upon hearing this, Xu Si's smile faded slightly.
He also silently watched that familiar figure, his gaze deep and unwavering.
Yes, Xiaobai is still Xiaobai, but he is no longer the Xiaobai he used to be.
Lu Jin, who was standing to the side, took in the hushed conversation and complex expressions of Xu San and Xu Si. A glint flashed in his eyes, and he was clearly very interested in the "that matter" and "the other him" they were talking about.
He didn't interrupt.
He simply stroked his beard thoughtfully.
Amid the hustle and bustle of the crowd, Lu Xiaobai was busy receiving red envelopes and setting notes, a slight smile playing on his lips.
Sunlight streamed through the broken walls, falling into his smiling eyes and dispelling the last vestiges of gloom left by the battle.
New connections are quietly being established on this ravaged battlefield.

[Battle of Black Watson: In order to completely destroy this organization, Lu Xiaobai's original magic power and soul were severely damaged in the battle. The recovery process is currently slow, and he dares not easily use large amounts of magic power!]
