Chapter 465: 213: Asura's smile, life and death unpredictable
Sudden thunder from a clear sky.
Zhou Baiyu had never experienced this feeling before. In that moment, he felt as if he was watching a fast-moving slide show.
He saw everything, from his infancy to before he became a pioneer.
"Damn, don't just randomly throw in a cutscene where it feels like I'm about to get stabbed!"
Constantin's words carried a laughter and a kind of swagger as if to say, "Oh my old Zhou, you're really amazing and I'm proud of you."
But Zhou Baiyu now had a feeling that Constantin was actually a contaminant, carefully lurking and pretending to be a pure walker, just to deliver a fatal blow to him.
Yes, Constantin!
Once the sentence about Zhang Haoyun being somewhat his mother had slipped out, Zhou Baiyu couldn't hold back any longer.
He stopped in his tracks.
Tired of it, let the damn base be destroyed, whoever wants to save it go ahead, my life is over.
Even Zhou Baiyu himself didn't know what exactly would happen...
He had no intentions of dating any woman, but he clearly knew what role he played near Midel and Zhang Haoyun, in order to survive and to save others.
So, after Constantin finished speaking, Midel and Zhang Haoyun's faces stiffened simultaneously.
Then both turned their heads in a very tacit manner and looked at Zhou Baiyu.
In that moment, the snow demon also widened her eyes.
And Guang Tongchen was calm, expecting Zhou Baiyu to decisively resolve the confusion, and if not, one in the real world and one in the Advanced World could also be manageable.
Men, shouldn't waste their time on women unnecessarily.
If Zhou Baiyu knew what Guang Tongchen was thinking, he would probably rank Guang Tongchen as a threat on the same level as Constantin.
"Is he... Jiang Xianwu?"
Bai Ling followed the gaze and saw the man next to the snow demon.
At that moment, Bai Ling could finally confirm that the snow demon was indeed the woman from his memories.
Everything was just as he initially thought.
Bai Ling smiled and waved at Jiang Xianwu.
She didn't care about the meaning of Constantin's "half mother," she just shook her wristwatch-wearing hand towards Zhou Baiyu:
"Although it's not the agreed-upon place, I really wanted to see you, dad."
"Over these years... I've grown a lot. I missed you a lot."
The second thunder struck down.
People around seemed to sense a weird, oppressive, murderous atmosphere; unrelated passerby unconsciously gave way.
No one knew why the shelter leader, the base manager designated by the unmatched chairman, being a corrupt kind, would call a pioneer 'dad.'
Midel's pupils contracted.
The White Witch... is Jiang Xianwu's daughter? Daughter?
This version 2.49 entity, only second to Seamer, turned out to be Jiang Xianwu's child...
Was she born by Jiang Xianwu in the Advanced World?
No... that's not right. According to Jiang Xianwu, they first met in version 2.23 at Hanging Corpse Hospital.
That was the pioneer's test; at that time, it was Jiang Xianwu's first entry into the Advanced World.
But by that time, she had already heard of Seamer and the White Witch.
It's evident that the White Witch simply regarded Jiang Xianwu as her father.
The existence of the White Witch is objective and unrelated to Jiang Xianwu...
But perhaps, maybe it's because Jiang Xianwu changed history, causing the history she remembered to have already been altered?
Thinking about time causality briefly zoned Midel out; after coming back to her senses, she thought of a convincing answer typical of Jiang Xianwu—
"Kink."
Yes, calling 'dad' must be a kink between Jiang Xianwu and the White Witch, they are trying out a very new play.
Midel was actually mocking inside; she enjoyed seeing Zhang Haoyun embarrassed.
Your dear man actually has a mistress, and their private interactions are quite flamboyant...
Moreover, the Demon Clan's way of thinking led Midel to believe that the strong deserve the right to dominate many weaker ones.
But she didn't appear particularly happy.
Inside, she even felt a sense of disgust.
Recalling Jiang Xianwu's long conversation in the Demon Clan Arena, Midel suddenly wondered...
How much of what this cunning human said is true and how much is false?
She had believed his words and tread a path of patience; for this path, she had already sacrificed a lot.
Many of her former allies had also been purged by Reina afterward.
No one knew how tough Midel's rise in the Demon Clan had been; Midel believed that Jiang Xianwu would not deceive her, so she always believed she was right.
But at this moment, seeing Zhang Haoyun's astonished face, Midel suddenly pondered—
Maybe this is just a human filled with lies.
As Constantin listened to Bai Ling's incredibly girlish tone, he recalled the domineering manner she had when confronting the unmatched leader...
He admired Zhou Baiyu a lot; Zhou Baiyu's stature in his eyes rose yet again.
But clearly, Constantin hadn't realized the metaphysical nature of the atmosphere.
Zhou Baiyu didn't know when he had walked up to everyone; right now, he was very bewildered.
Midel was somewhat troubled inside; suddenly, she really wanted an answer, so as Zhou Baiyu approached, Midel asked:
"Little man, remember back at that hospital, when you were combing my hair with a comb and you told me, you had fallen in love with me."
In the world of the game, one can't see the threads of fate.
But Wu Xin could feel that outside his territory, the destiny of a smiling Asura was definitely fully accumulated.
It's over, completely over, brother, I really didn't expect, you fucking have a daughter... and she's the kind that doesn't look at you like a father at all.
