Chapter 3121: Shui Bing'er's Decision_1

Lord Xue Beng's last vestige of sanity instantly crumbled as he cried out, "Uncle... Uncle, what should I do? I don't want to die, I don't want to die!"

"If things are really as Senior Du Gu described, wouldn't that mean my death is certain!"

He was not foolish enough to think that the Heaven Dou Royal Academy was an absolutely safe place!

This hysterical breakdown softened Prince Xue Xing's heart...

Though Xue Beng had some talent, after all, he was still just a child with a limited capacity for psychological endurance; my words might have been too harsh!

Thinking this, he stood up, walked in front of Xue Beng, and reached out to ruffle his hair...

He spoke with utmost confidence, "Xue Beng, what is there to fear? This is the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, who would dare to be so reckless here?"

"Besides, isn't your uncle here? As long as I'm around, I will definitely protect you!"

Moved by these few words, the former immediately opened his arms to hug Prince Xue Xing, crying out loud...

"Uncle... Uncle, wuwuwu..."

Prince Xue Xing sighed and patted him comfortingly on the back, "Come on, you are a prince, don't be so weak. Gather your courage!"

Upon hearing this, Xue Beng immediately released him and quickly wiped away all his tears...

He said with a resolved tone, "Uncle, rest assured, I won't do anything so foolish again!"

Only then did Prince Xue Xing show a satisfied expression. "Mm, that's my nephew!!"

At that moment, Du Gu Bo interjected unexpectedly, "Prince Xue Xing, it's getting late!"

Although he did not dislike the warm scene, he could not help but interrupt!

Prince Xue Xing immediately understood, covered his mouth to cough, and then spoke very earnestly, "Xue Beng, after you return, you must maintain your usual demeanor and not expose yourself!"

"I will take care of the issues with Xue Ke for you!"

Upon hearing this, Xue Beng's face was filled with gratitude, "Yes, Uncle, then I shall take my leave now!"

If not for his uncle, he might not have been able to survive until now!

Having said that, he turned and left the room...

Only after his presence had completely vanished did Du Gu Bo casually say. "Prince Xue Xing, you must be quite disappointed with Lord Xue Beng?"

Prince Xue Xing glanced sideways and asked, "Why do you say that?"

Du Gu Bo did not shy away from speaking his mind, "Because Lord Xue Beng was scared to tears by just a few of my words!"

The former simply shook his head and denied, "Poison Douluo, that's not the right way to put it. Xue Beng is only a few years old, if it were you or me at that age, faced with this situation, would we have managed to handle it to this extent?"

Du Gu Bo was momentarily at a loss for words, then changed his tune, "That... I indeed underestimated Lord Xue Beng!"

The corners of Prince Xue Xing's mouth slightly lifted, "Just watch. As long as Xue Beng can overcome these difficulties, he will surely become an even more outstanding emperor!"

Du Gu Bo chuckled softly, feeling emotional, "An emperor, huh? Prince Xue Xing seems to have a lot of confidence in Lord Xue Beng!"

To be honest, the current Xue Beng could fall at any moment!

But the former still believed that the other could become the emperor of the Tiandou Empire, which was an incredible confidence!

Just then, an armored soldier entered the room...

Bowing, the soldier reported, "Informing Prince Xue Xing, not long ago, the Crown Prince had entered the Heaven Dou Royal Academy!!"

At once, a deep hostility flared up in Prince Xue Xing's eyes...

He sneered, "Oh? Not only has Xue Qinghe not huddled up in the palace to survive, but he also dares to step into my territory. He really has a death wish!"

Du Gu Bo seemed to sense something and cautioned, "Prince Xue Xing, you must not lay a hand on the Crown Prince within the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, otherwise..."

Before the former had finished speaking, Xue Xing interrupted, "Rest assured, under everyone's watchful eyes, I naturally won't lay a hand on him, after all, Xue Ye's spies are all over the academy!"

"However, giving him a taste of hardship is still possible!"

Du Gu Bo narrowed his eyes, "Prince Xue Xing, what do you plan to do?"

It's probably not just a taste of hardship!

Xue Xing didn't say it directly, but with his hands behind his back, he said, "You'll know shortly, let's go meet this impostor!!"

After speaking, he strode forward…

Du Gu Bo hesitated for a long time but still chose to follow…

Well, if any unexpected situation really does arise, I'll intervene to stop it!

Skywater Academy!

Shui Yue'er extended her forefinger and poked Shui Bing'er's cheek, coquettishly saying, "Sister."

Shui Bing'er snapped back to reality, staring blankly as she said, "Yue'er, what's wrong?"

Shui Yue'er giggled, "Sister, you've been distracted again these past few days, could it be that you are thinking about a man?"

Shui Bing'er, feeling somewhat guilty, retorted, "Who's thinking about men, Yue'er, can you not talk like that!"

Shui Yue'er's eyes lit up, "It seems I guessed right, it's about that Xu Sheng again, isn't it?"

Shui Bing'er pressed her lips tightly together, silent…

Shui Yue'er, unconcerned, feigned a sigh, "Ah, I was actually going to tell you some good news concerning Xu Sheng, but if you don't want to hear it, then forget it!"

Shui Bing'er immediately turned around, grasping the other's shoulders with both hands eagerly, "Related... related to Xu Sheng? Yue'er, please tell me quickly!"

Shui Yue'er turned her head and pouted, "No, I won't tell you. But if you beg me, I might consider it!"

The look in Shui Bing'er's eyes became much more dangerous, "Yue'er, stop joking around!"

Shui Yue'er immediately raised her hands in surrender, "Alright, alright, I really can't even make a joke with you!"

"Actually, it's like this, isn't the friendship match between the Martial Soul Hall and our major Elemental Academies happening in a few days?"

"With Xu Sheng's ability, he should also be exceptional among the Spirit Hall Golden Generation. You may have the chance to see him then!"

She paused for a moment, then shook her head, "It's just a shame that you always choose not to participate…"

Shui Bing'er's tone suddenly changed, her response firm, "No, this time I want to participate in the friendship match!!"

Shui Yue'er sneered inwardly, her face full of surprise, "Eh? But only three people can participate, and there's no spot left for you, sister!"

Shui Bing'er immediately deflated like a balloon, her head drooping powerlessly…

Shui Yue'er took a deep breath and added, "However, as your little sister, I naturally will help you!"

Shui Bing'er slowly lifted her head, asking cautiously, "Yue'er, what do you mean by that? You're not going to use any underhanded methods, are you…"

Shui Yue'er patted her chest, "Of course not, all you need to do is be willing to participate, and leave the rest to me!"

Hearing this, Shui Bing'er's eyes filled with deep gratitude, "Yue'er, I owe you a favor this time!"

"Then I'll remember that, sister. You'll have to repay me in the future!"

After responding with a mysterious smile, she turned and left…

Shui Bing'er placed her hands over her chest, murmuring, "I can meet Xu Sheng? Yue'er really brought me good news…"
