บท 2805: Chapter 2790: Hostility_1

Xu Sheng, who was focused on his cultivation in the academy, suddenly sensed something and immediately opened his dark pupils…

"Hmm? These familiar auras, it seems like…" he voiced with some confusion.

But then he shook his head, "No, it couldn't be, I only met those female students from Skywater Academy once, how could they possibly come to Pope Hall just to thank me!"

"I couldn't possibly be that charming!"

Hulena, who was beside him, brushed her golden hair back from her shoulders and asked curiously, "Xu Sheng, what familiar auras did you just mention?"

Xu Sheng chuckled lightly and explained, "Nana, you must have heard wrongly!"

Though skeptically raised was evident on Hulena's cheeks, she didn't make a fuss…

"Is that so, then let it be!"

Being able to sit quietly like this alongside Xu Sheng during cultivation, she felt a peace she had never known before!

Little did she know, Flame, who was constantly watching them from behind, almost had sparks flying from his gaze…

Especially when he saw Hulena, full of indignation, tugging at Evil Moon, "Evil Moon, speak up for Nana, would you? She's sitting so close to that Xu Sheng, what would people think!"

Evil Moon scoffed, "You think I didn't see you trying to move closer just now and then got scolded back to your place?"

Besides, given Hulena's current attitude towards Xu Sheng, if I went over to interrupt, I might just get scolded as well!

Why bother!

Flame's blood pressure soared in frustration, "I... I was trying to persuade Nana to keep her distance from him, nothing else!"

There was a twitch at the corner of Evil Moon's mouth, "You might want to keep such a lousy excuse to yourself!"

Total loss of reason took over Flame, who started cursing at the other…

"I... Evil Moon, laugh it up, but if Xu Sheng really gets close to Nana, you as her brother, won't have it easy either!"

He had realized that Evil Moon, true to what he said a few days ago, was not on his side at all!

And to think they had been together for years!

Evil Moon showed his disdain and was about to close his eyes to continue his cultivation…

However, the hurried footsteps made him abandon this idea…

Following that, Yueguan stepped into the academy…

The members of the Spirit Hall Golden Generation, aside from Xu Sheng, quickly stood up and greeted, "Chrysanthemum Douluo!!"

Yueguan merely glanced at them and responded with a light "Hmm!"…

Afterward, he set his gaze on Xu Sheng…

He said coldly, "Xu Sheng!"

Upon hearing his call, Xu Sheng stood up unhurriedly and asked, "Chrysanthemum Douluo senior, do you need something from me?"

Yueguan's eyes narrowed, and a smile suddenly appeared on his lips…

"All those women you know have come looking for you!"

The moment these words were spoken, the members of the Spirit Hall Golden Generation turned their gaze towards him…

In their looks, there was doubt, curiosity, and even contempt…

Undoubtedly, he had become the target of public criticism…

And Hulena, who was infatuated with Xu Sheng, clenched her thin lips even tighter and demanded with an inquisitive tone, "Xu Sheng, who are those women Chrysanthemum Douluo is talking about?"

Xu Sheng looked deeply at Yueguan…

This guy was definitely doing it on purpose, to get back at him for the last time he tricked him and Gui Mei!

Nevertheless, he explained, "Nana, those women are just people I…"

Before he could finish speaking, Yueguan seized the opportune moment to throw the scene into chaos again…

"Female students from Skywater Academy, please come in!"

"Sorry for the intrusion!"

With a female voice chiming in, Shui Bing'er and the others, brimming with vivacity, all walked in...

Their youthful and beautiful appearances immediately captured everyone's attention...

Flame's eyes lit up, excitedly saying, "I... I mean, what?? So... so many beauties, they're... they're all here for Xu Sheng?"

Evil Moon also swallowed hard, "Judging by the emblem on their clothes, they should all be students of Skywater Academy. There's a saying that this academy is full of beauties, and it really isn't false!!"

"Damn it, I'm so envious, how great would it be if these female students from Skywater Academy were here for me!"

"Hey, hey, which female student do you think is the prettiest?"

"Which one is pretty? At a time like this, you should say they're all pretty!!"

"If I could have one as my partner, hiss..."

However, Shui Bing'er and the others directly ignored the presence of these members and headed straight to Xu Sheng not far away, not hiding the joy on their faces...

Shui Bing'er exclaimed excitedly, "Xu Sheng, you're really here!!"

Seeing this, Xu Sheng also responded with a smile, "Shui Bing'er, and everyone else, what brings you to the Pope Hall?"

Shui Yue'er giggled, "Do we even need to say? Of course, we're here especially to see you!"

Shen Liuyu nodded, "Mhm, especially Bing'er, she's been clamoring to see you this whole time!"

Shui Bing'er glared at her slightly, "Liuyu, why bring that up!"

Snow Dance pursed her lips, "I didn't want to come, but after all, you saved us, so I might as well come to express my gratitude!"

Xu Sheng nodded in understanding, "I see, but you really don't need to dwell on it, anyone else would have done the same in my place!"

"However, since you're here, of course, I welcome you!"

Receiving this response, Shui Bing'er became even more cheerful, "That's good, we were worried about disturbing your cultivation!"

However, Hulena's expression was clearly looking a bit upset...

Her gaze fixed on Shui Bing'er and the others was filled with hostility, "Xu Sheng, who are they??"

Xu Sheng explained calmly, "Nana, they are all students from Skywater Academy. Last time when we went to Aquipeia Forest, I helped them hunt soul beasts along the way."

Hulena's tone became a bit sour, "You 'helped them along the way,' but it seems you didn't mention this to me before, did you?"

Was this something Xu Sheng did when he and Ghost Douluo disappeared??

Xu Sheng did not deny, "Yes, I didn't think it was anything important, so I didn't tell you all!"

Shui Bing'er's ice-blue pupils flickered, as if she also had figured something out...

She immediately extended her hand to Hulena, saying, "I presume you must be the new goddess of Spirit Hall, nice to meet you, I'm Shui Bing'er."

Under the scrutiny of the public, the latter couldn't refuse and also shook hands with her...

She said indifferently, "Hulena."

Clearly, her hostility did not subside because of this...

This scene made Flame cover her mouth and laugh, "Hahaha, Evil Moon, look quickly, Xu Sheng is in trouble now, he's actually hooked up with so many beauties at once."

"Surely Nana must be disappointed in him!"

Evil Moon, however, didn't agree with this view, saying seriously, "That's not necessarily the case, the more women that pursue Xu Sheng, on the contrary, it shows how outstanding he is!"

These female students from Skywater Academy, who usually act so high and mighty, are now willing to come to Martial Soul City for Xu Sheng...

That speaks volumes...
