"Are you excited?" Dugu Bo looked at Shi Yu with a smile.
"No, I just feel it's a bit sudden," Shi Yu waved his hand and denied.
"What do you think?" Dugu Bo looked at Shi Yu with anticipation, still wanting to become family with Shi Yu.
The contact over the past few days made Senior increasingly satisfied with Shi Yu. His high talent, powerful background, and demeanor all pleased Senior.
This is the perfect candidate for a grandson-in-law. Senior didn't ask his granddaughter's opinion because Senior wanted to settle this marriage.
Although Yu Tianheng is also good, compared to Shi Yu in front of Senior, Senior still feels quite inferior.
"Thank you for your kindness, Senior, but I really can't have a relationship with your granddaughter," Shi Yu refused.
Seeing Dugu Bo's smile fade, Shi Yu quickly added, "To be honest, Senior, I actually already have a girlfriend, and our family elders have even arranged our engagement. I really can't get involved with your granddaughter anymore."
Senior wouldn't directly say Senior had no feelings for Dugu Yan, but instead found a reason that Dugu Bo could accept.
Senior had never even met Dugu Yan, so naturally, Senior couldn't say whether Senior liked her or not.
It's just that Dugu Yan and Yu Tianheng are already considered boyfriend and girlfriend, so why would Shi Yu go and interfere?
"How did you get engaged at such a young age? You're not lying to me, are you?" Dugu Bo stared at Shi Yu, not quite believing Senior.
"My age isn't young anymore. Isn't it normal to be in a relationship at thirteen or fourteen?"
"Let alone being in a relationship, there are many who are already married and have children. Mine is definitely not early," Shi Yu explained.
The legal age of adulthood in this world is actually fourteen.
Perhaps it's because this world contains Heaven and Earth Soul Power, which also stimulates ordinary people, causing them to develop earlier. Often, at thirteen or fourteen, they are similar to people aged seventeen or eighteen in Senior's world.
Getting married and having children at thirteen or fourteen is really not considered particularly early.
"What a pity," Dugu Bo could only believe Senior and sighed.
"Senior Dugu, about Yuan Lang..." Shi Yu asked tentatively.
"I can help you look after him for a while, but you need to leave me a bit more of that medicine," Dugu Bo said.
"No problem," Shi Yu readily agreed. Senior had already prepared a lot of medicine for Dugu Bo, which was piled up in Senior's room. Senior would just let Dugu Bo get it himself later.
Shi Yu started giving instructions to Dugu Bo, mainly concerning Yuan Lang.
"Alright, I should go now," after the meal, Shi Yu said goodbye to Yuan Lang in front of the hotel.
"Brother, when will you come back?" Yuan Lang hugged Shi Yu reluctantly, tilting his head up, his eyes watery as he looked at Shi Yu.
"Brother can't say for sure, only that it will be as soon as possible. While I'm away, you must cultivate diligently. When I return, you must at least break through to level twenty, understand?" Shi Yu rubbed Yuan Lang's small head.
"I will work hard," Yuan Lang nodded firmly.
Shi Yu smiled slightly, then looked at Dugu Bo. After a brief farewell to Senior, Senior walked towards the direction outside the city.
Dugu Bo and Yuan Lang both watched Shi Yu leave.
The former was relatively calm, while the latter was extremely reluctant and even cried. Senior had been parentless since childhood, and Shi Yu was the first person to give Senior warmth. Senior truly regarded this brother as Senior's own.
This brother was leaving after only a few days together, making Senior feel sad.
"Alright, your brother is just leaving temporarily, Senior's not gone forever. Don't be too sad," Dugu Bo said, offering a rare word of comfort when Senior saw Yuan Lang crying.
Yuan Lang nodded while crying, hoping the time for reunion would come sooner.
Shi Yu walked out of Heaven Dou City and ran towards an uninhabited area, constantly using Naruto's Instant Transmission, moving very quickly.
A carriage was traveling on the official road. A man inside opened the window for air and saw Shi Yu constantly flashing.
"Was I seeing things?" The man was stunned for a moment, then looked closely, still seeing someone flashing.
The distance quickly widened, and soon Senior disappeared from Senior's sight.
"Fengzhi, what's wrong?" Inside the carriage, an Old man was sitting opposite the man. Seeing Senior's slightly dazed expression, Senior asked out of curiosity.
Ning Fengzhi lowered the curtain and told the Old man about the scene Senior had just witnessed.
"Someone flashing?" The Old man with sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes, who was full of energy despite Senior's age, was slightly surprised.
"Flashing might mean someone is using Instant Transmission, but thinking about it closely, that shouldn't be possible. I've never seen anyone whose Instant Transmission ability can be used continuously," the Old man said.
"I also think it's unlikely," Ning Fengzhi nodded in agreement, then shook Senior's head and chuckled, "Maybe I didn't rest well yesterday and was seeing things."
"You still need to pay more attention to rest, don't exhaust yourself," the Old man said caringly.
Shi Yu quickly moved away from Heaven Dou City. The premonition of returning became stronger and stronger until a Space-Time vortex appeared.
Shi Yu was sucked into the Space-Time vortex. Senior tried once again to see the Time scenes clearly.
Each scene was unclear, but some scenes still made Senior associate things.
For example, a man and a woman fighting in special armor in the sky. Behind the man, seawater surged, as if Senior had brought the entire ocean with Senior.
The woman was like an Angel descending to the mortal world, bathed in sacred light, dazzling and eye-catching, becoming the protagonist of Heaven and Earth.
This scene flashed by but left a deep impression on Shi Yu. Senior's first thought was of Sea God and Angel God, which fit their images quite well.
Shi Yu saw several more impressive scenes and wanted to see more, but Senior had already been sent out of the Space-Time vortex.
Shi Yu's consciousness returned. Senior's head was dizzy, and Senior's breathing was rapid, as if Senior had just woken up from a dream.
Senior looked around. It was the scene before the Crossing. Time and Space returned to normal. Du Weilun and Shi Xing, seeing Shi Yu suddenly gasp for air, all turned their gazes towards Senior.
"What's wrong?" Du Weilun saw that Shi Yu's state was different from before and went over to ask caringly.
"It's nothing, I just suddenly choked on my saliva," Shi Yu casually found an excuse.
"I thought it was some discomfort caused by absorbing the Soul Ring," Du Weilun rolled Senior's eyes at Shi Yu, having worried for nothing.
Shi Yu smiled awkwardly, stood up, and indicated that they could go back.
Du Weilun and Shi Xing didn't object either, they just paid a little more attention to Shi Yu.
For some reason, they always felt that Shi Yu had suddenly changed somehow, that Senior was different.
But they couldn't pinpoint exactly how Senior was different; it was just an intuition.
The group returned to Shrek together. Shi Yu easily kept up with the running pace of these powerful Soul Masters.
If Senior wanted to, Senior could even leave the Title Douluo behind.
After returning, Senior's Space ability had decreased. Taking a step of two hundred meters while running might not be possible, but maintaining a step of over a hundred meters was still not a big problem.
Running like this, Senior's speed was also very exaggerated. Even a Title Douluo specializing in speed might not be as fast as Senior.
Du Weilun and Shi Xing were also surprised by Shi Yu's speed. Senior could actually keep up with them relatively easily, which was not simple.
