The teen girl was so embarrassed that she didn't know where to put her face. She really never thought that Bai Meiyue would be this skilled. If she had known the extent of her power, she would never have come here to embarrass herself in front of her.
What was more, this woman was not just powerful; she was much more skilled than any other ability user as far as the young girl knew. The way Bai Meiyue could control the water and its movement was not something that someone would learn in a day or two.
She could actually make the water chase after its prey; this was something that the woman wanted to learn but couldn't because it was that difficult! She had tried all kinds of cultivation methods, but even now she could not get the hang of such skilled control over her abilities.
And yet Bai Meiyue could do it effortlessly. It was enough to show the disparity between the two.
"Do you think I will tell you just because you asked me?" Bai Meiyue sneered coldly.
"Hahaha!" Lei Qian, who was bursting with anger, ended up laughing out loud when he saw how the person who had looked for trouble for them was embarrassed by Bai Meiyue.
Even Lu Yu was quite satisfied upon seeing the condition of the little girl.
Though he had nothing against her, she did embarrass him just now.
"What's going on?" Lu Jingguo looked at the little girl who was drenched from head to toe and then turned to look at Bai Meiyue and the rest of her team. He had a feeling that this matter was closely related to them; thus, he waited for them to tell him what was going on.
However, Bai Meiyue didn't say a word. She simply shrugged, as in her eyes there was nothing to explain. Such a thing was quite common, and it happened all the time, as ability users were used to fighting with one another for the sake of getting stronger.
Thus, there was nothing wrong with something like this.
Seeing that she was not speaking, Lu Jingguo turned to look at Lei Qian just as Bai Feng walked over with a bag of supplies. When he saw the sparks in the air, he paused and turned to look at Bai Meiyue and asked, "Are you okay?"
Bai Meiyue: "..."
Lei Qian: "..."
The girl who was beaten up: "..."
The one thing she was concerned about was raising her son well.
She turned on her heels and headed inside the RV.
When everyone saw her attitude, they knew that it was impossible for Bai Meiyue to be pushed forward as the leader of the team. In the end, it was Lu Yu, who was dripping with water from head to toe, who stepped forward and shook hands with Lu Jingguo.
After working in the corporate world for so long, Lu Yu had long learnt the lesson that one should never offend a smiling face. He looked at the two men and said in a half-truth and half-polite manner, "Oh, so you are related to Mister Bai? I didn't know that the girl was related to you, or else we would have tried to solve this matter peacefully."
"That's alright," though Lu Jingguo was a tad bit annoyed with Bai Meiyue's actions, he also knew that he could not get angry. After all, he knew his cousin and understood her temper. She must have done something that caused the matter to escalate in such a manner.
Since they were in the wrong, how could he look for trouble from the start?
What was more, just like Lu Yu—Lu Jingguo was skilled in sophistication. He had been working in an official position for a long time; it would be impossible for him to charge into a battle with a spear impulsively.
