Chapter 194

"A bad person?"

Su Bai, who had just turned away, heard the collective shout of the Hilichurls behind him.

He turned his head in suspicion.

What met his eyes was a graceful arc; the great sword in his hand had, in an instant, felled his entire group of Hilichurl minions to the ground.

No, to be precise, he had slain them.

Alhaitham: "I see. The meaning of that sentence is 'a bad person'."

Cyno: "Ah! Mr. Su Bai can truly understand the Hilichurl language."

Lumine: "This... actually isn't too surprising. There is a little girl in Mondstadt who studies Hilichurl language every day. Given Su Bai's intelligence, it is no wonder he knows Hilichurl."

Jean: "Hahaha, Eula was called a bad person by the Hilichurls."

Eula: "Uh, if you had jumped out, they would have said you were a bad person too."

Aether: "Damn it, this is truly unpleasant. They are the ones who slaughtered our people of Khvarena."

Ilmarinen: "Sigh, it is all my fault."

Eula's short blue hair instantly caused Su Bai's thoughts to stall.

She is...

Eula.

Counting it up, it has been over ten years since we last met.

Su Bai had just wanted to step forward to greet her, but then remembered that he was currently wearing a set of Hilichurl clothing.

If the other party saw him here looting supplies from Mondstadt City, what then?

No, although he missed the other party, at this very moment, fleeing temporarily was the wisest course of action.

Without a second thought, Su Bai took off running.

However, Jean, who was currently gathering Anemo elements, was instantly dumbfounded.

She had intended to use the wind force formed by Anemo elements to suck Su Bai to her side and then subdue him.

Who could have expected that the other party would not rush up to fight Eula to the death like other Hilichurls, but instead take off running?

"Eula, he ran away."

Jean quickly abandoned the condensation of Anemo elements and chased after Su Bai's fleeing direction a step ahead.

Eula was equally stunned.

A hint of hesitation flashed in her eyes.

"This..."

"This Hilichurl's intelligence is truly not comparable to that of an ordinary Hilichurl."

"He actually took off running?"

She had never seen such a bizarre Hilichurl.

Eula had no time to think much and followed behind Jean; the two of them together chased after the direction Su Bai had fled.

Unfortunately, both of them simultaneously fell into Su Bai's wild boar trap; the instant they fell into the trap, they were hoisted up onto a tree.

Su Bai: "....."

"Damn Hilichurls, this..."

Eula struggled for a while, and her anger flared up.

To actually fall into a Hilichurl trap; if this got out, wouldn't it be a huge embarrassment?

What made her most speechless was that Jean had fallen into the trap with her.

This...

"You are..."

"Eula?"

The situation before his eyes exceeded Su Bai's expectations.

Seeing Eula fall into his own ambush trap, he could not truly just leave her unattended.

There was no choice; he could only grit his teeth and step forward to ask.

Perhaps the other party had already forgotten him.

"Eh?"

Jean was bewildered.

Eula was equally bewildered.

"Hilichurls can actually speak human language?"

The next moment.

Su Bai removed the headgear, revealing his true face.

"You are!"

Eula was stunned.

Jean followed with an exclamation: "You are actually a human disguised as a Hilichurl."

"And, why do you know Eula?"

Jean looked at Eula with a suspicious gaze.

But judging from Eula's confused and helpless expression, Eula seemed not to know the other party.

But, very quickly...

Eula's beautiful face suddenly trembled several times.

She asked in surprise: "You..."

"Could you possibly be Su Bai?"

"Wow! I never expected you to still remember my name."

Su Bai was somewhat surprised.

He gently set Eula and Jean down.

"Su Bai..."

Jean whispered the name silently.

Her eyes suddenly trembled: "You are..."

"Su Bai Lawrence?"

"It really is you..." Eula froze.

She looked Su Bai up and down.

His black hair had not changed.

Due to the passage of time, the cuteness and childishness on Su Bai's face were gone.

Beneath his sunny and handsome face, there was also a maturity that his peers lacked.

"You rascal, you actually didn't die..."

Eula angrily slapped Su Bai.

"Fine, fine, fine. You promised to meet me every day back then, yet the next day you were gone."

"I waited for you for a long time."

"I'll hold this grudge against you. And you pretending to be a Hilichurl to trap me—that grudge must be recorded too..."

"Damn it, I thought you had starved to death outside back then, and I was sad for a long time."

Eula stood with her hands on her hips, fuming.

Deep inside, however, she was exceptionally happy, as if an old friend long deceased had suddenly come back to life.

"No, it wasn't intentional. Many things happened at that time."

Su Bai awkwardly scratched his head and smiled apologetically: "I'm truly sorry. I thought if you didn't see me the next day, you wouldn't go anymore."

Lisa: "Wow, suddenly I feel a bit envious of the relationship between Su Bai and Eula."

Eula: "Ah, this... what is there to be envious of..."

Yae Miko: "A fate destined by a first meeting in childhood, free of guile? Could it be that the two of you fell in love at first sight?"

Eula: "Eh!?"

Yoimiya: "Meeting once in childhood, then meeting again after more than ten years, yet able to recognize each other instantly. Although that childhood meeting was just a single glance, the emotions it contained were extraordinary."

Tianquan Ningguang: "Both being people of the Lawrence family, able to comprehend feelings others cannot, plus both being people who wish to break free from the shackles of fate, they are certainly different from others."
