Goodbye

Chapter 39 Goodbye

Feelings are complicated, and Shen Hanyu has never been very interested in such topics. Right now, most of his thoughts are focused on cultivation and becoming stronger.

Only when you are strong enough can you be confident in pursuing what you want. In this way, neither the person you love nor the person who loves you will be at risk, and this is the safest approach.

The two chatted about these topics, and after they finished, Shen Hanyu suddenly felt a little relieved, as if he had breathed a huge sigh of relief.

"Sure enough, you should avoid getting too involved in relationships; otherwise, problems will arise..."

Shen Hanyu sighed, then jumped down from the tree, only to suddenly see a familiar yet unfamiliar face outside the fence.

Outside the fence, Shui Bing'er looked at the boy with complicated emotions, pursing her lips nervously, but unable to utter a sound.

Shen Hanyu rubbed his eyes. He thought he saw Shui Bing'er, but wait, how could that be? Why does it feel so real, like it's real...

The two remained silent for a long time before finally confirming each other's existence.

"you…"

The two spoke at the same time.

Both of them were taken aback at the same time.

For a fleeting moment, Shen Hanyu's eyes showed confusion and unease, but he quickly regained his composure, revealing a faint smile, and said:

"Long time no see, Shui Bing'er."

Shui Bing'er pursed her lips tightly, wanting to speak several times, but not saying a word.

She had clearly seen this person, and he was the one who shamelessly flirted with her and even said he wanted her to be his child bride. But upon seeing him, her disgust and anger turned into a feeling of grievance and dissatisfaction. It was as if there was something about him that was attracting her, making her unconsciously want to get closer.

Tianmeng narrowed her eyes slightly within Shen Hanyu's spiritual sea, and finally said with some surprise:

"Han Yu, this little girl is no simple character. Her martial soul is an ice-attribute phoenix, and she has almost reached the barrier of ultimate ice. However, she seems unable to fully control her martial soul and is unable to unleash its true power. Otherwise, she should have broken through to the Great Soul Master level. Judging from her current state, she is clearly attracted by the ultimate ice within you."

Tianmeng paused, then said with a hint of sarcasm:

"You two are really meant to be together~ I have high hopes for you two..."

Shen Hanyu ignored him, but his pupils shifted as if he was thinking about something.

Shui Bing'er hesitated for a moment, then finally said:

"Aren't you going to invite me in?"

Shen Hanyu smiled innocently, gestured for them to proceed, and said:

"Alright, stop standing there, come in and sit down. There are also two little girls behind you."

Shui Bing'er then took a step and slowly walked into the courtyard.

Two mischievous little heads peeked out from behind. Shen Liuyu secretly gave Shen Hanyu a thumbs-up, and Shen Hanyu immediately understood what had happened.

Meanwhile, the owner of the small head behind was already caught in a brainstorming session.

What a handsome guy! And he's the most incredibly handsome guy in the universe, with explosive charisma!

Shuiyue'er's eyes were practically brimming with hearts. Shen Hanyu smiled, unconcerned. He had anticipated that Shuiyue'er would have a serious crush on him.

Shui Bing'er's gaze swept across the entire courtyard, a hint of amazement flashing in her eyes. She looked at Shen Hanyu and asked softly:

Do you usually live here?

Shen Hanyu turned around, shook his head, and moved a few rattan chairs over from the side, gesturing for the girls to sit down.

Only then did he speak:

"I haven't been here long, and I'll be staying with my sister in Elemental City for a while..."

Before Shen Hanyu could finish speaking, Shui Yue'er quickly interjected:

"My god! My name is Shui Yue'er, and I'm my sister's younger sister. Who is your sister? Which academy does she go to? Maybe I know her."

Shen Hanyu smiled and said:

"Then you probably do know them, and you're quite familiar with them."

Shui Yue'er tilted her head and thought for a moment, then her gaze shifted back and forth between Shen Liuyu and Shen Hanyu. She covered her cherry-like mouth, stammering in shock...

"No...no, Liuyu...you..."

Shen Liuyu nonchalantly drank a glass of juice from the table and said with a charming laugh:

"This is my older brother, Shen Hanyu. Han means cold, and Yu means wings. He is four years older than me."

Shuiyue'er suddenly realized what was happening, glanced at her older sister, and quickly said:

"My idol, you're going to be my brother from now on! Ahhh, you're so handsome, I love you so much..."

Shen Hanyu's lips twitched slightly, and he gained a new understanding of what a fangirl is.

Shui Bing'er pursed her lips and remained silent...

I never imagined he was Liu Yu's older brother. No wonder I saw his shadow in Liu Yu...

His original name was Shen Hanyu...

Shui Bing'er's thoughts were racing, her mind was in a mess, and she was clearly not in the right state of mind. Shen Hanyu noticed this and secretly gave Shen Liuyu a look. As her younger sister, Shen Liuyu immediately understood and pulled Shui Bing'er to leave.

Shui Yue'er looked at Shen Hanyu's face with some reluctance, but was forcibly pulled out by Shen Liuyu.

After things calmed down, Shen Hanyu looked at Shui Bing'er, only to find that her gaze remained fixed on him.

Shui Bing'er was discovered, and whether out of shyness or something else, she lowered her head somewhat awkwardly.

Shen Hanyu was silent for a moment, then said:

"I didn't mean it before, I didn't expect you to remember me so vividly..."

Shui Bing'er licked her dry lips, but didn't know what to say, so she just gave a soft "hmm".

"Long time no see, don't you want to say something?"

Shen Hanyu continued.

Shui Bing'er lowered her head, seemingly thinking about what to say, and after a long while, she said:

"How have you been these past three years?"

Shen Hanyu was taken aback, then said:

"I went out to gain experience for a while, made new friends, and had new opportunities. We were apart most of the time, and it was a mixed bag of good and bad."

Shui Bing'er nodded and continued:

"Why...why did you treat me like that back then?"

"It's fate, or to put it another way, I'm waiting for you to grow up."

Shen Hanyu thought for a moment and realized he couldn't think of a better excuse, so he simply went straight to the point.

A blush appeared on Shui Bing'er's flawless white face, but she didn't say anything, as if she had tacitly agreed.

I find this thing amazing; it can easily change a person's thoughts and perceptions.

Shen Hanyu looked at the two furtive little heads peeking out from outside the fence, finding it somewhat amusing. He then looked at Shui Bing'er sitting beside him, took out a smooth, gray bead from his soul tool, and handed it to her, saying with a smile:

"I left you half a comb last time, don't think I'm stingy. This is a shark pearl produced by a 30,000-year-old bloodthirsty shark. After being refined with soul power, it can cleanse your meridians and remove impurities. You're not far from becoming a Great Soul Master now, this is perfect for you. After you consume it, you should directly become a Great Soul Master. Take it, I don't need it. Don't be polite or reserved with me, I'm Liu Yu's older brother. If all else fails, you can treat me like an older brother..."

P.S.: I wrote this chapter in 23 minutes, I'm quite impressed with myself.
