After leaving the team, the adventurer ladies regretted it deeply

People say girls like gossip, and it's really true.

Lia and Tasya both pricked up their ears.

They pretended to look at the scenery, but were actually listening intently.

"It's no problem telling you,"

Bailuo puffed out her petite chest, pride in her voice, "The teacher is my future husband."

Upon hearing this, Lin Da and the others were all stunned simultaneously.

Adventurers value matching social ranks, and conquering the same levels.

Therefore, a fiancé from the Light Rank would likely also be from the Light Rank.

And if Lin Da accidentally touched the chest of the little black-robed person, what if her fiancé found out? Wouldn't that be terrible?

That would be like suddenly having a Light Rank enemy!

With that thought, Lin Da broke out in a cold sweat.

"What's the personality of that teacher like?"

Maybe he's an understanding good person.

Lin Da, with a hint of hope, asked.

"The teacher..."

Bailuo's face showed a nostalgic expression.

In the girl's mind appeared the image of a man always wearing a black trench coat, standing alone like he didn't fit in with the entire continent.

He was there, yet Bailuo felt he was far beyond reach.

Apart from conquering the World Tree and killing opposing adventurers, the thing the teacher liked to do most was to daydream.

In the yard, on the street, at the library, in front of the counter at Adventurers' Guild...

He could daydream anytime, anywhere.

Once he started, it could last for hours.

Like a statue forged from steel, not moving an inch.

Lost in her memories, Bailuo's pale gold wings fluttered slower behind her.

She used her Battle Qi to create a barrier, isolating the sounds of the outside world, as if any slight noise could disturb her reminiscence of her teacher.

"I don't really know what his true personality is, I've never seen through him,"

Bailuo said: "But what I do know is that his true heart must be..."

"An 'Asaxi' person," Lin Da couldn't help but mentally finish her sentence.

This development was quite familiar.

He had seen it in many comic books.

A stern teacher, yet with a gentle side.

A person who had influenced this little black-robed person.

It must be so.

Lin Da secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

If the other's teacher was an "Asaxi", then his accidental touching of her fiancé's chest might be forgiven.

But just then, Bailuo spoke again.

"But what I know is the teacher's heart is definitely very evil, a totally selfish, utterly unforgivable big bad guy,"

The girl said so.

"What?"

Lin Da's face was blank.

According to this, wasn't he completely doomed?

Bailuo, noticing Lin Da's fear of her teacher, had an even more amused look on her little face, her voice carrying the lightness unique to young girls.

"Anyone considered an enemy by the teacher has never survived.

He acts without choosing means, disregards imperial laws without hesitation, enjoys using harsh methods to punish team members, kicks out the useless ones, and offers no rewards...

Oh, right, even for the active team members, he distributes no rewards. The spoils from conquering the World Tree are divided by the team leader.

It's possible that a team member lounging in a villa doing nothing can end up with a significant share of the spoils.

While a team member with great merits in the conquest might not get even a single gold coin.

Tell me, isn't the teacher very bad?"

"Devil." Lin Da sighed.

Lia angrily said, "A captain who doesn't reward his team members is worse than scum!"

Tasya lowered her head, deep in thought.

It always felt like the person Bailuo spoke of had a bit of resemblance to someone she knew.

Bailuo said, "Yes, the teacher is indeed a devil!"

"But it was the teacher who led me out of that 'hell'."

He also gave me many Gold Coins and Magical Equipment, helping me become an outstanding adventurer.

If I had to choose again, I would still leave with him."

"Even if the teacher is a devil…" Bailuo's eyes were filled with a gentle light, his tail under the robe nervously wagging as he softly said, "he is the devil only for me alone."

The three of them exchanged glances.

It was as if they had been force-fed a ton of dog food.

The blow to the single ones was too great.

"By the way, you mentioned that Lulu asked for a payment to tell you someone's whereabouts, that person wouldn't happen to be your teacher, would it?"

Lin Da suddenly realized.

"Yes." Bailuo smiled: "The teacher had promised to marry me, retire together, and live an ordinary life."

"Willing to retire for the other is truly a great adventurer."

Lin Da showed admiration.

Not everyone has the courage to enter the World Tree. And once inside the World Tree, very few can resist the desire to climb further ahead.

Every layer holds a vast treasure that can bring adventurers enhancements in strength and status, achieving grade leaps within a day.

The World Tree is like a raging fire, luring countless adventurers like moths to a flame.

"Willing to brave the currents for your sake and leave the World Tree, filled with dreams and desires, your teacher is indeed an outstanding adventurer," said Lin Da in praise.

"Indeed." A happy smile emerged on the face behind Bailuo's mask, "He is stronger than I am, with a promising future, yet still willing to indulge my whimsical request to retire together, to live as ordinary people... So, to repay my teacher, I need to become a mature adult," he said.

Lia enviously said, "That's nice, I also want to have such a romance."

"With your beauty, you must have no shortage of fine adventurers pursuing you," Bailuo politely said.

Lia thought for a moment and said, "Hmm, I think so too."

Lin Da grew even more worried.

How was he supposed to explain to the Little Black-Robed Person's teacher about accidentally touching the Xiaolongbao...

While they were chatting, they unknowingly arrived at the exit of the Great Mystery Continent.

It was a vertical, cleft-like black hole.

Sliced open by the [Boundary-breaking Secret Sword * Level 10], it could last for 24 hours.

Bailuo led the trio and plunged into it.

...

The surrounding space plunged into endless darkness.

Without any reference points, in this boundless darkness, even the fastest flight felt like standing still.

"Hold on tight."

Bailuo said gravely.

The light golden Light Wings flapped vigorously!

Lin Da and the others groaned, a strong sense of dizziness attacking their minds, making the whole world seem to spin.

"Ugh~!"

Lia was the first to vomit.

Lin Da and Tasya were in slightly better condition, yet their faces were as pale as gold paper, too dizzy to tell up from down.

After a few seconds, at last, a speck of light appeared ahead.

...

...

Adventurers entering the Void Space for the first time often experience some form of physical discomfort.

Passing through the light, fresh air rushed into their lungs, their bodies refreshed by the long-missed Magic Elements.

Unlike the arid and closed Great Mystery Continent, if the latter was a dry desert, the former was an ocean bursting with life!

Lin Da and his companions felt like fish diving into the sea, every part of their bodies screaming in excitement, celebrating their return. Especially the Magic Circuit within them, which, from being dim and lightless, suddenly lit up like a fully charged Magic Conduit Tube, shining brightly all at once.

The only discomfort was in their heads, still reeling from the dizziness.
