Tie Xiaohu did not disappoint Ling Yun . Not only did he manage to reach the peak of the mountain, he even struggled to stand upright as he walked up the stone steps towards the peak of Dragon Mountain!

"G.o.d! What is that?!" The moment Tie Xiaohu arrived at the peak of the mountain, he was faced with the sight of a white-water pillar with a diameter of 20 meters and a height of nearly a thousand meters!

His feet were rooted to the ground and he did not move an inch . The sight of the waterspout took his breath away as he stared blankly at the magnificent scene before him!

Ling Yun swept him into his arm in one swift move and brought him to Tiger Cliff before leaving him there . Ling Yun then continued to look at the sky that had begun turning white .

However, right up until the complete disappearance of the waterspout phenomenon, Ling Yun never saw the 10-meter long figure again . But for now, after absorbing a huge amount of dragon spiritual energy, Ling Yun was clear about the existence of dragons in this world .

The storm clouds in the sky had finally dissipated and Qingshui Lake had reverted back to its calm and serene self as if nothing had ever happened . However, the magnificent scene of the waterspout which lasted for more than 20 minutes had been ingrained in the minds of everyone who had witnessed it with their very own eyes!

Even though Tie Xiaohu had only managed to witness a few minutes of the waterspout, the scene had been deeply ingrained in his mind, never to be forgotten for the rest of his life .

It was the first time that he had witnessed this phenomenon, be it on the Internet or in real life .

For the three years of his high school experience, he had spent his time training endlessly and getting into countless fights . He did not even recognize all of his cla.s.smates from school, let alone talk about such phenomenon .

By the time the three of them snapped out of their daze and looked towards Ling Yun, Ling Yun flashed a mesmerizing smile as he asked casually, "Little Ning, Lingyu, both of you know that this is a waterspout . What are your opinions on it?"

Xue Meining seemed to be extremely eager to impress Ling Yun as she began to regurgitate the knowledge and information that she had obtained from the Internet . Finally, she ended off her little speech with a concluding sentence, "This is easily explained through science . What happened was a tornado that occurred on the surface of the water created a force which pulled the water from the lake, causing it to spiral into the air . "

Ling Yun chuckled and nodded before replying to her with another question . "Science? Why do you have to explain it through science?"

Xue Meining and Ning Lingyu were caught off guard by his response and did not understand what Ling Yun meant by that question . Right now, Tie Xiaohu had regained his balance and gave a faint smile .

Xue Meining pondered his question and replies, "Since young, we've learned to respect and believe in science . "

Ling Yun nodded once again and continued to retort with another question . "Well, what if it simply cannot be explained by science? What would you do then?"

Once again, Ling Yun's question took Xue Meining by surprise . She furrowed her brows and pondered deeply . "Well then, that wouldn't make sense . . . "

Both Ning Lingyu and Tie Xiaohu remained quiet as they looked at Ling Yun thoughtfully . They felt as if the reason Ling Yun had intentionally brought the both of them out was not as simple as giving them the opportunity to witness the occurrence of a waterspout .

Ling Yun burst out in laughter after hearing Xue Meining's answer . "Whatever cannot be explained by science doesn't make sense? What kind of logic is that?"

Whatever cannot be explained by science is often written off as superst.i.tion or nonsensical . This is truly an outrageous concept .

Right after those words left Ling Yun's mouth, his facial expression turned serious as he continued to question Xue Meining . "Let me ask you . Where do the birds in the sky come from? Since it's a waterspout, where does the water go after it gets sucked into the air? Why doesn't it fall back into the lake? Do these water molecules not obey the laws of gravity? Or did they evaporate and become steam? I don't think the weather is that hot now, is it?"

"Alright . You said that the water was blown up by the tornado . Now that the tornado has stopped, why hasn't the water descended back into the lake?"

"These questions, I'm afraid the online resources have casually missed them out, right?"

Ling Yun's rapid-fire of questions left Xue Meining completely tongue-tied . She had never once thought of these questions before .

Actually, one cannot simply deny the importance of science and technology . Of course, science and technology are extremely useful and have a huge impact on the world . This is clearly undeniable and beyond question .

However, if there is something that cannot be explained by science, others would automatically generalize it under superst.i.tions or nonsense . This is definitely not advisable .

For example, ghosts, demons, Gu Insects, zombies, spirits, black magic, Śarīra et cetera . . . there are too many unbelievable phenomena that cannot be explained by science . Not a single explanation can be given after countless research . So people generalize everything under one word, superst.i.tion!

Is this not just a load of bullsh*t?

The fact that research does not provide an answer only proves that the science and technology is not advanced enough . How does that become superst.i.tion?!

For example, the Big Bang Theory that has been recognized by the majority . It explains that the universe started as a small dot that exploded and grew with the pa.s.sing of time and s.p.a.ce, finally giving form to the universe as humans know it .

Anyone who is not an idiot could probably figure out another problem that comes along with this Big Bang Theory . Before the explosion of the small dot, putting aside what was inside the dot, what was on the outside of it?

Such a bullsh*t theory was able to sweep the world . What kind of scientific theory is this? The funny thing is, countless scientists have even tried to prove the validity of this theory!

Ning Lingyu and Tie Xiaohu seemed to begin to understand what Ling Yun was trying to convey . They had their eyes fixed on Ling Yun as they antic.i.p.ated the next part of his explanation .

Ling Yun saw that he had achieved his goal and flashed a smile yet again . "What I'm trying to tell you all is to accept that some things do exist . Don't intentionally pretend that they do not exist, don't reject the idea . We as humans are not invincible . Just because there are some things that we are unable to come into contact with, it does not mean that it does not exist in this world . Just because there are things you don't understand, it does not mean that it's wrong or illogical . The both of you, do you understand now?"

Just as Xue Meining continued racking her brain as she tried to understand Ling Yun's seemingly 'illogical' explanation and theory, Ning Lingyu suddenly flashed a smile . "Big Brother, the reason you're so strong right now, is it because you came into contact with things that normal humans don't usually come across?"

Even though Ning Lingyu did not get it right, she was not too far off . Ultimately, my little sister is still the smart one . I suppose it will be a lot easier for me to explain some things to her in the future .

At least, Ling Yun believed that he no longer needed to rack his brain to come up with explanations for his sudden gain in strength to satiate his sister's curiosity .

This was the real reason why he had brought Ning Lingyu and Tie Xiaohu here to witness the waterspout . Or else, he would have chosen to venture here alone and save himself all the trouble .

Right now, the sky above Qingshui City was as bright as day, but Ling Yun knew that there was a big storm coming to Qingshui City this evening .

Standing on Tiger Cliff, his eyes swept across his surrounding as he thought to himself, No wonder this is regarded as the top 10 sceneries of Qingshui Lake . The scenery is simply astonis.h.i.+ng .

He calculated the time they had spent there before laughing bitterly at Ning Lingyu . "If we head back now, we are sure to disrupt the first afternoon lesson . So, this is the sudden situation that I was talking about…"

Ning Lingyu couldn't help but blush and chuckle as she saw Ling Yun's handsome face and playful expression for the first time but chose not to tease him back .

It was at this moment that Ling Yun's phone began to ring .

He figured that it was probably Tang Meng, thus he quickly picked up the call .

"Boss, we can see that the four of you are standing on Tiger Cliff . Haha, did you guys get drenched in water?"

Tang Meng was currently knee deep in jealousy over Ling Yun's apparent favoritism towards Tie Xiaohu and his tone over the phone carried an obvious hint of schadenfreude .

Well, I didn't get drenched in water, I got drenched in dragon spiritual energy instead . Hehe…

He replied in confusion, "Say, where are you guys right now? On the opposite side of the lake, right? How are you seeing us from that far away?"

Ling Yun was truly confused . With his superb eyesight, he could not even spot Tang Meng and his friends when he had been running his bouts around the mountain . He just a.s.sumed that Tang Meng had not arrived yet . He would never have thought that Tang Meng would spot them first .

Of course, Tang Meng had only spotted them with the help of a telescope that was pointed at Tiger Cliff .

"Hehe, Boss, we're in the private room of Qingshui Restaurant . There's a telescope here . The sight of the waterspout just now was truly magnificent . What a sight to behold!"

Ling Yun understood now and nodded his head . "Alright, wait for me at Qingshui Restaurant . We'll head there real soon . ", Ling Yun said before hanging up .

After the call ended, Tang Meng looked at the phone in his hand before mumbling to himself in confusion "Is it just me or does Boss' voice sound a lot nicer . Moreover, he looks so handsome through the telescope…"

Ling Yun and his friends joked around as they made their way down the mountain while admiring the beautiful scenery . Even so, they still took less time than Tie Xiaohu when he had been making his way up the mountain . Soon, they reached the exit of Dragon Mountain Park and went half around Qingshui Lake before arriving at Qingshui Restaurant .

Tang Meng and Li Qingchuan were already at the entrance of Qingshui Restaurant awaiting their arrival . As for Lin Menghan, she had already rushed back to the police station after witnessing the waterspout .

Cao Shanshan and Zhang Ling were both cla.s.s representatives . Even though it was highly possible that they would be late if they chose to go back right after witnessing the waterspout, late was still better than never . Hence, they hurried back to school right after watching the waterspout .

Tang Meng and Li Qingchuan spotted Ling Yun and the other three heading towards them and quickly stepped forward to welcome their arrival . However, Tang Meng was shocked before he even reached Ling Yun!

This . . . this . . . is this still Boss? His face shape is still the same, but why is his face so fair, so smooth, and so handsome?

Was it possible that watching a waterspout from Tiger Cliff can potentially make someone more handsome? No one had ever heard of waterspouts having such a great effect!

He quickly took a look at the two beauties beside Ling Yun, Ning Lingyu and Xue Meining . He noticed that Ning Lingyu seemed a little dreamier than before but he couldn't exactly put his finger on it, whereas Xue Meining seemed the same as before .

By the time he noticed Tie Xiaohu in his pathetic state, the jealousy and unhappiness within him disappeared instantaneously!

Needless to say, by the looks of Tie Xiaohu, Ling Yun probably had not treated him to anything good!

But why had Ling Yun undergone such a huge change? Tang Meng was extremely perplexed .

After seeing how much Ling Yun had changed, Li Qingchuan was in an even bigger shock than Tang Meng!

What on earth is going on? It has only been an hour, hasn't it? Why did he change so much?

Li Qingchuan inspected Ling Yun's face in an attempt at finding a flaw, but he ultimately gave up and admitted the reality that Ling Yun was indeed more handsome than him . He had no choice but to sigh in silence as he thought to himself, What is the point of comparing?

He would never match up!

Ever since Li Qingchuan laid eyes on Ling Yun, his self-esteem took a great hit and dwindled to nothing!

However, since they were both guys, they did not express their shock towards Ling Yun's sudden change . If they were to react like how Xue Meining had, that would be really weird!

Ling Yun arrived before Tang Meng and told him, "Drive Lingyu and Little Ning back to school, I have something to settle later in the afternoon, I won't be heading back to school . "

Hearing that her brother was about to skip cla.s.ses again, Ning Lingyu crinkled her cute little nose in resentment and whined to her brother, "Big brother, how can you be like this…"

Ling Yun did not want to lie to his little sister . He gave a warm smile and chuckles, "Lingyu, I have to save a life later in the afternoon . I'll come back to school right after I save the person, alright?"

Without a doubt, Ling Yun's smile was now potentially lethal to all girls who caught sight of it . His warm smile completely melted Ning Lingyu as she stared blankly at him and nodded her head .

Right after making arrangements, Ling Yun turned around and said to Tie Xiaohu, "Tie Xiaohu, follow me . "

The person Ling Yun was about to save was, naturally, Liu Li's husband who was currently unconscious in the hospital .

.

Tie Xiaohu did not disappoint Ling Yun . Not only did he manage to reach the peak of the mountain, he even struggled to stand upright as he walked up the stone steps towards the peak of Dragon Mountain! .

.

"G.o.d! What is that?!" The moment Tie Xiaohu arrived at the peak of the mountain, he was faced with the sight of a white-water pillar with a diameter of 20 meters and a height of nearly a thousand meters! .

.

His feet were rooted to the ground and he did not move an inch . The sight of the waterspout took his breath away as he stared blankly at the magnificent scene before him! .

.
