"Ha..."
Hearing Lin Bai's explanation, Gid couldn't help but widen his eyes slightly.
He didn't believe a word of it in his heart. Regarding that kick just now... he felt there was definitely some personal grudge involved. Although he really wanted to kick him back, considering the gap between him and Lin Bai right now, he decided to let it go for the moment.
He would remember this grudge for now. He would settle the score once he was stronger than Lin Bai.
Thinking of this, Gid took a deep breath. He looked at Sephie and asked, "Who is this? Your woman?"
Although the thought crossed his mind that Sephie might be Lin Bai's younger sister, their appearances and hair colors didn't look alike at all. So he phrased it differently.
"!!!"
Hearing Gid ask Lin Bai this, Sephie's eyes widened slightly, ripples stirring within her pupils. Her heartbeat suddenly accelerated a few beats. Inexplicably, she looked forward to Lin Bai's answer a little. So she shifted her gaze to look at him.
Keenly sensing Sephie's gaze, Lin Bai smiled faintly and said, "Not yet."
Hearing this, Sephie's beautiful eyes trembled slightly. Her gaze flickered faintly as she looked at Lin Bai. Regarding this answer of his, she felt surprised, shy, and seemingly a tiny bit happy in her heart.
So Lin Bai feels... towards me...
"Hah, not y—"
Gid was stunned for a moment upon hearing this, then said with a face full of indifference, "Forget it, never mind you two. I'm going to continue training on this planet. What about you, Lin Bai?"
He only wanted to improve his strength right now. Once his strength was sufficient, the first thing he'd do was beat this guy Lin Bai up. Then, he would go complete his own goals.
Lin Bai smiled and said, "There shouldn't be any particularly strong existences on this planet. Fighting with the weak won't improve your strength. I will stay here for about seven days. During these seven days, Gid, use all your strength and strive to defeat me."
"Seven days..."
Hearing Lin Bai's words, both Sephie and Gid's eyes flickered slightly. Did Lin Bai mean he would leave this planet in seven days?
Sephie turned her head slightly to look at Lin Bai. Her right hand gently pinched her skirt as a thought couldn't help but flash through her mind.
Gid was slightly stunned upon hearing this, then put his hands on his hips and said, "Fine, seven days it is. Seven days is enough. I will definitely defeat you."
He had originally planned to train first and then settle the score later. He didn't expect Lin Bai to leave in seven days. Since that was the case, he would change his plan.
He believed he could defeat Lin Bai. Although he had been getting beaten up almost the whole time, he felt he could learn something from Lin Bai. After the previous two battles, he had some insights in his heart. As expected, only by fighting with the strong can one become stronger.
Before meeting Lin Bai, his strength hadn't improved for a while. As long as he fought Lin Bai enough times in the coming days, he believed his strength would definitely gain a massive boost. He could feel that the intensity of the energy within Lin Bai's body was actually similar to his own, but his method of utilizing it was stronger. That was why he wasn't his opponent.
The enemies he encountered in the past could basically be taken out easily. Meeting Lin Bai, who was at the same level but had far superior techniques, he realized he had relied too much on raw stats before.
Seeing Gid's confident face, completely undiscouraged by being crushed twice, Lin Bai couldn't help but smile and say, "Do your best. I'm looking forward to it."
As expected of the existence capable of unifying the Galaxy. His will was indeed very firm and powerful.
At this moment, seeing that the two seemed to have finished talking, Sephie looked around and asked Lin Bai, "Where are we going next?"
"Wait, let me check."
Lin Bai replied, releasing his spiritual perception to envelop this Planet Lute, which was about the size of Earth. Massive amounts of information flooded into his brain. Fortunately, Lin Bai's ability was strong enough; otherwise, his brain would have crashed.
After a while, he retracted his spiritual perception. He already had a rough understanding of the civilization level on Planet Lute. It was similar to the stage where Earth transitioned from agricultural civilization to industrial civilization. Obviously, Luteans did not possess the ability for space travel, while aliens like Sephie and Gid could come here.
Lin Bai was silent for a moment before saying, "Let's find a place to stay temporarily first. We'll decide tomorrow whether to continue staying on this planet. What do you think?"
He asked for their opinion.
"I have no objections."
Gid shook his head directly. This kind of thing seemed completely irrelevant to him right now; anything was fine.
Sephie smiled faintly and said, "I have no objections either."
She was already wandering to begin with. Due to the characteristics of her race, she had been alone for a long time. Now that she had met Lin Bai, she couldn't help but want to stay by his side.
"Good, let's go."
Having reached a consensus, Lin Bai used his spiritual perception to find a place with no people and a decent environment. Then he used the Space Card. Power of space wrapped around the three of them, bringing them to the edge of a lake in the wilderness.
While Sephie and Gid were surprised by the spatial transfer, Lin Bai used his Creation superpower to build houses. He cleared the surrounding area, and three wooden houses took shape in the blink of an eye.
Each wooden house was about five meters apart. Lin Bai didn't make them too exaggerated. Anyway, they were just staying for one night temporarily. The wooden houses weren't big, just thirty-five square meters, with one bedroom and one bathroom. They were fully equipped with living facilities inside—bathroom, water storage tank, battery, and a four-piece bedding set were all there.
Lin Bai looked at Sephie and Gid. "I choose the middle one. You two pick the side ones. The rooms are all the same."
"I'm fine with whatever, you choose first," Gid said, looking at Sephie with an indifferent expression.
Seeing this, Sephie said, "In that case, I'll choose the right side."
The three of them chose their respective lodgings. Lin Bai looked at the two and asked, "Are you hungry?"
Gid shook his head. "I'm not hungry. I'll go to my room to adjust my condition first. Once I'm ready, let's fight again."
His voice falling, he walked directly towards the wooden house he had chosen. He couldn't wait to review the previous battles, absorb the experience, and strive to beat Lin Bai up a bit sooner. Moreover, he had a bit of inspiration.
Seeing Gid like this, Lin Bai couldn't be bothered with him, so he looked at Sephie. "What about you?"
"I'm not hungry either..." Sephie said, her gaze flickering.
However, just then, her stomach suddenly growled uncooperatively twice, exposing her lie on the spot. She immediately covered her stomach with her hands reflexively, feeling a bit ashamed in her heart, her cheeks heating up slightly. She lowered her head, not daring to meet Lin Bai's eyes. If there were a hole in the ground, she would really like to crawl into it.
Lin Bai couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth lightly. Then he feigned confusion and asked, "Strange, what was that sound? So loud, it almost scared me. Sephie, do you know?"
Sephie: "..."
Hearing Lin Bai's words, she felt her face getting hotter and hotter. The shame in her heart skyrocketed, and she couldn't help but lower her head further, feeling like turning into an ostrich.
Seeing this, Lin Bai smiled again. With a thought, he used the Creation superpower to create a dining table and chairs nearby, with various foods on top. Meat and vegetables were balanced and nutritionally sound. Besides food, there were also drinks.
Lin Bai placed his hand on Sephie's head, giving her a gentle pat. "Alright, let's eat."
"!!!"
Being patted on the head by Lin Bai, Sephie's whole body stiffened for a moment. Her beautiful eyes slowly widened. Astonishment, shyness, panic... Various emotions surged in her heart, making her heartbeat accelerate. Under the veil, her cheeks flushed crimson.
