Chapter 627: Chapter 627: Perverted Huo Shuyu?
“Hmm, stand up.”
Huo Shuyu calmly said, “These guys are fairly capable. Arrange an executive for them to work within the academy.”
“Yes, yes, yes. I’ll definitely do my best to fulfill the princess’s instructions!”
“Your Highness, this way, please. We’ve already cleaned your yard!”
Master Xu said hurriedly, leading everyone to a large courtyard.
Then he left with White Cat and the rest to handle other things.
Inside the courtyard, only Jiang Xiaobai and Huo Shuyu were left.
They were sitting across from each other at a stone table. Jiang Xiaobai took out a jug of nice wine and muttered while drinking it.
“Can you tell me? What secrets are there that make you want me to stay close to you?”
Hearing this, Huo Shuyu’s cold, aloof image suddenly turned into a playful girl.
“You’re not from this world, are you?”
“From which world did you come from?”
As soon as these words came out, Jiang Xiaobai became alert.
He stared at Huo Shuyu intently.
Just who is this woman? How can she tell at a glance that he’s not from the Star Lianyu world?
“I came from a small world. So what?”
After thinking for a while, Jiang Xiaobai eventually told her the truth. At the same time, his speculations about Huo Shuyu became clearer.
“I knew it!”
Huo Shuyu clapped her hands in surprise: “I didn’t expect to meet you here!”
“Jiang Bai, you must return home with me. You’re the only one who can save my family!”
With that, Huo Shuyu turned pitiful and blinked those big eyes at him.
Jiang Xiaobai’s mouth twitched for quite a while.
God, what a scene.
So you want my help?
It’s one thing to ask for my help, but you’re using that tone?
You make it sound like I would regret it if I didn’t help you.
“If you want me to help, just say it. There’s no need to beat around the bush.”
“Give me a good enough reason, and I’ll consider.”
“However, your identity is mysterious, and your family must be quite powerful. How am I, a person at the Peak of the Late Integration Stage, qualified to help the Huo Family?”
Jiang Xiaobai calmly said.
“Because you’re very special!”
Huo Shuyu said, then sat up straight, her face returned to the previous cold indifference.
“I can only tell you so much for now. But don’t worry, you won’t be in any danger!”
“And for you, helping my family would be a small favor, but we can only rely on you!”
“This is… a small token of my appreciation.”
After saying so, Huo Shuyu handed over a storage ring.
Seeing Huo Shuyu changing her demeanor constantly, Jiang Xiaobai only felt a headache.
What is this woman up to?
Is she really insane?
And is this her attitude when she’s asking for help?
“You…”
“Ahem, my condition is a bit special. Please bear with me.”
Huo Shuyu started laughing happily again: “But I’ll be better after a while, no more than a month!”
“Jiang Bai, please, only you can help our Huo Family.”
Jiang Xiaobai didn’t say anything. He just glanced at the storage ring.
The contents in the ring almost made him lose his cool when he saw it.
There were ten thousand high-grade immortal stones and a million middle-grade immortal stones!
Is this just a minor benefit?
A filthy rich?
“First, tell me, how do I help your Huo Family and what’s in it for me afterwards?”
“Like this, ten times!”
Huo Shuyu got excited again: “Have you agreed?”
“Agree my ass!”
“At least tell me how I can help you. I still don’t even know what I can do to help!”
Jiang Xiaobai got furious, stood up and pointed at Huo Shuyu’s nose angrily.
“And, can’t you act a bit more normal!”
Just after speaking, Jiang Xiaobai paused.
Because Huo Shuyu started crying!
She is shedding tears!
Does this look anything like the cold person when they first met?
What? Is it something to do with her body?
When she meets someone she likes, she’ll go crazy?
“Because of your sword skills.”
Huo Shuyu’s tears were pouring down, her voice quavering: “Yes, because of that. Because of that, you are a benefactor to the Huo Family!”
“Only you can help us now…”
Upon hearing that, Jiang Xiaobai was astounded!
Sword skills?
He only had one skill, the Nine Heavens Star Sword Skill. He had demonstrated it in front of Huo Shuyu before.
Thinking back, it was after showing his sword skill to Huo Shuyu that she changed. She started behaving like a madwoman.
“Only my sword skill can help…”
“Wait, does your Huo Family also know this sword skill of mine?”
Jiang Xiaobai raised his eyebrows at Huo Shuyu.
At that moment, many possibilities flashed through his mind.
First of all, during his time on the Tianxuan Continent, the Heavenly Sword Sect’s sword skill was very similar to the Nine Heavens Star Sword Skill.
This is enough to prove that someone else knows the sword skill!
And now, Huo Shuyu said it was because of his sword skill, which made him suspect that the Huo family may possess the orthodox Nine Heavens Star Sword Skill.
“No, but your sword skill can indeed save my family’s life.”
“Please…please…”
“I…”
Before Huo Shuyu could finish, she suddenly sat up straight again, resuming her cold demeanor.
With a shake of her spiritual power, the tears on her face disappeared in an instant.
That sight completely stunned Jiang Xiaobai.
Then, Master Xu came in with White Cat and the others.
“Princess, everything’s done.”
Master Xu was very respectful. When he spoke to Huo Shuyu, he was like a servant, lowering his head and trembling.
Huo Shuyu only nodded, waved her hand, and Master Xu hurriedly turned around to leave, relieved of his burden.
He’s escaping!
Yeah, escaping!
“Shuyu, thank you so much for this.”
White Cat sincerely thanked Huo Shuyu.
He was joking, if it wasn’t for Huo Shuyu, he would already be screwed over!
What on earth was it that was given to him?
That was nothing less than his life!
Fortunately, Huo Shuyu was there.
“It’s no big deal, Boss. You guys saved me in the past.”
Huo Shuyu casually nodded: “You guys rest for a while. Jiang Bai and I are going for a walk.”
As soon as she finished speaking, she quickly stood up, grabbed Jiang Xiaobai, and dragged him away without saying anything.
Once outside, she was a completely different person again, crying pitifully.
Holding Jiang Xiaobai’s hand tightly, Huo Shuyu pleaded again, “Wu wu wu, Jiang Bai, please help me…”
“Oh… Are you pretending?”
Jiang Xiaobai narrowed his eyes.
Such a situation could indeed happen, but one thing was certain – Huo Shuyu must not be well in the head.
No sooner had he finished speaking than Huo Shuyu suddenly let go of Jiang Xiaobai’s hand, pointed threateningly at his nose, and yelled out.
“Jiang Bai, don’t overstep your bounds! It’s our privilege that you’re helping the Huo Family, you…”
Before she could finish, she had again reverted to her cold demeanor: “Shut up! You have no business speaking here!”
Then, she started crying again.
“Wu wu, Jiang Bai, only you can help the Huo family!”
In just three minutes, Huo Shuyu changed her expression seventeen times!
Jiang Xiaobai was so baffled by her that he nearly pulled a face!
