Chapter 146 Lu Ming's Identity Exposed! He Can't Hide It Anymore!
The comical Superman mask lay quietly in the grass, the smile on it still exaggerated.
A gentle breeze swept by, stirring up a few fallen leaves.
Shui Bing'er and Shui Yue'er stood frozen in place like two exquisite sculptures.
Their gazes darted back and forth between the mask on the ground and the exceptionally handsome face before them, their minds going blank for a moment.
Beneath the mask was a young face with sharp eyebrows, bright eyes, and distinct features.
They recognized that face all too well.
Not long ago, also outside this grove, this boy kicked Dai Mubai away, and his extremely arrogant figure left an indelible impression on them.
"Lu...Lu Ming?!"
Shuiyue was the first to come to her senses, and her exclamation broke the silence of the woods. Her already large eyes widened even more.
Although Shui Bing'er didn't say anything, the ripples in her beautiful eyes were no less than those in her younger sister.
The arrogant and invincible Lu Tiandi who fought seven opponents single-handedly in the Great Soul Arena.
Beware of Superman, the mysterious and powerful figure who wore a tight-fitting suit and a comical mask and beat Flander to a pulp.
It's the same person!
"Shhh."
Lu Ming put a finger to his lips in a shushing gesture, then bent down to pick up the mask from the ground and casually dusted it off.
"Keep your voice down."
"If we bring that old bat back, I won't have the strength to lead you all on another run."
Upon hearing this, Shuiyue'er suddenly covered her mouth and nodded vigorously like she was pounding garlic, but the excitement in her eyes grew brighter and brighter.
She released her hand from her mouth, hopped over to Lu Ming, and the fear of surviving the ordeal was replaced by immense joy.
She looked up at Lu Ming, who was so close to her, her cheeks flushed, her eyes filled with admiration.
"Oh my god! Brother Lu Ming, so you're actually Careful Superman!"
"You're amazing! You even sent that fierce-looking dean flying with one punch!"
"And you're so young... you're practically my idol!"
The youthful energy unique to young girls is palpable, carrying a faint, delicate fragrance.
Shui Yue'er was naturally a bold and enthusiastic person. Now that she knew her savior was Lu Ming, whom she had a crush on for a long time, she became even more overly familiar with him.
Lu Ming reluctantly took half a step back, creating some distance between them.
"Alright, stop flattering me."
He put the mask into his storage soul tool, glanced at the two of them, and his tone became slightly more serious.
"What happened today is known only to Heaven, Earth, you, and me."
"I don't want a fourth person to know that I am Careful Superman."
"Especially those Shrek students."
Shui Bing'er had calmed down by now. She stepped forward, reached out and pulled her overly excited sister back, and nodded solemnly to Lu Ming.
"Don't worry, Young Master Lu."
"You exposed your identity to save us, and we sisters will never forget this kindness."
"Even if it means death, I will never reveal a single word to anyone."
The girl's voice was clear and melodious, yet her tone was unusually firm.
Shui Yue'er quickly raised three fingers and solemnly assured them:
"Yes, yes, yes! I swear too!"
"If you dare tell anyone, I'll make sure you never get married again!"
Lu Ming smiled gently as he looked at the two of them looking so serious.
"It's not that serious. Whether you can get married or not is something for you to worry about in the future."
"Just don't spread it around."
"After all, I still want to have a few more peaceful days at the academy."
He spoke lightly, but Shui Bing'er was well aware of the implications.
Today, Lu Ming not only crippled Flander, but also acknowledged Zhao Wuji's death and publicly humiliated Haotian Douluo.
If this gets out, even with Liu Erlong backing Lanba Academy, he probably won't be able to protect him.
Thinking of this, Shui Bing'er couldn't help but feel an indescribable sense of emotion.
To save these two strangers, he risked offending two titled Douluo.
This kind of man...
Shui Bing'er stole a glance at Lu Ming, her heart skipped a beat, and her fair cheeks flushed red.
"that..."
Shuiyue'er's eyes darted around, and she suddenly moved closer to Lu Ming, reaching out her little hand to gently tug at Lu Ming's sleeve, her voice soft and sweet.
"Brother Lu Ming, since we'll keep your secret, could you grant us a small request in return?"
Lu Ming raised an eyebrow.
Tell me about it.
"In the future... can we come visit you more often?"
Shuiyue blinked her big eyes, looking expectant.
"Look, you saved us, of course we have to repay you. We'll come to see you often, bring you some good food, help you with your laundry and stuff..."
This scheme is so clever that it shakes the leaves off the trees nearby.
This isn't about repaying a debt; it's clearly an attempt to use this opportunity to get close to them.
Shui Bing'er blushed and pinched her younger sister, but she didn't stop her. Instead, she lowered her eyes slightly, clearly waiting for Lu Ming's answer.
Looking at the two beautiful sisters, Lu Ming did not refuse.
"Your legs are yours to grow, and the gates of Blue Tyrant Academy aren't locked."
"Come if you want."
Upon receiving an affirmative answer, Shuiyue was so happy she almost jumped for joy. If it weren't for her sister's presence, she would have loved to rush over and hug her again.
"but..."
Lu Ming changed the subject, looking towards the distant horizon where Tang Hao's terrifying aura still lingered.
"You'd better be careful these days."
"Although I have already taken responsibility for Zhao Wuji's matter, the Shrek group will most likely focus their hatred on me and won't make things too difficult for you."
"But one should always be wary of others, especially that Tang San."
"That kid looks respectable, but he's very cunning."
When Tang San was mentioned, Shui Bing'er and Shui Yue'er's expressions both darkened.
It was the same at the mass grave before, and it's the same today.
Shrek Academy's actions have completely redefined their understanding of the word "shameless."
"We've got it."
Shui Bing'er nodded, her eyes filled with reluctance as she looked at Lu Ming.
"Young Master Lu, are you... leaving already?"
Lu Ming straightened his slightly disheveled collar.
"If you don't leave now, are you waiting for Tang Hao to treat me to dinner?"
"Alright, you guys should hurry back to the academy and not linger outside."
After saying that, Lu Ming didn't linger.
With a light touch of the toes on the ground, she soared into the air like a nimble bird, disappearing into the depths of the dense forest in a few leaps.
Watching him leave, Shuiyue'er cupped her hands to her heart, looking completely infatuated.
"Sis, you're so calm."
"A man who is so handsome, so strong, and so righteous is simply one in a million!"
"I've made up my mind, I'm going to pursue him!"
Shui Bing'er rolled her eyes at her younger sister, then turned and walked towards Tianshui Academy, but she couldn't suppress the upturned corners of her mouth.
Stop dreaming and get back to your hometown.
