Chapter 326 The Scholar's Skill in Solidifying Hollows

Similar to Winged, Lyp, who was moving Pokémon around the flower field, also fell silent.

Although she knew Xia Mu was shameless, she never imagined that Xia Mu could be so shameless. Of course, what shocked Lip even more was Wan Long.

Even though she had heard that people in the Unova region were very free, she never expected that one of the Elite Four would be so free.

"Don't you, the leaders of the Unova, need to maintain your own image and avoid affecting the reputation of the alliance?!"

""

Zi Yu blinked, then looked at Xiao Yao beside her.

"What do you say about Hoenn?"

Haruka took two steps back, indicating that Hoenn didn't want to talk and had nothing to do with the matter.

As for Daigo, before Shiyu even turned her gaze to him, he had already run to Officer Jenny, who was not far away, and told her about his discovery under the Bake Cave, and gave some suggestions on reinforcing the foundation of the flower sea.

""

However, judging from Daigo's occasional hesitant glances at Natsuki and the others, it was clear that he was actually trying to avoid Rip's probing questions.

Daigo didn't want to speak ill of Wanlong and Xiamu, so he went to Officer Jenny. Ziyu didn't want to speak ill of Wanlong and Xiamu, so she went to Haruka. Haruka had nothing to say.

Fortunately, Lip realized her presumption in a moment.

Therefore, she chose to ignore Xia Mu and Wan Long, the two scoundrels from the Union who were still fighting, and instead began to express her gratitude to Xiao Yao and Zi Yu.

"Thank you so much for your hard work. These are things I, as the gym leader, should be doing, but I've ended up dumping everything on you—anyway, thank you!"

Lip bowed politely to Natsuki and the others to express her gratitude.

Upon seeing this, Xia Mu immediately declared righteously, "This is what we should do. As new members of the League, our greatest joy is helping others. At the same time, we hope to set an example for other trainers and guide society towards a more virtuous atmosphere!"

If we disregard Xia Mu's current behavior of clinging tightly to Wan Long's thigh even with Wan Long's fingers inserted into his nostrils, Xia Mu would undoubtedly be a righteous and morally upright young man.

But because of Natsuki's strange posture, Lip couldn't help but shudder at the mention of being a role model.

If Padiya were all Xiamu, no, if Padiya had only two Xiamu, this region would be unable to hold its head high in the eyes of the entire world.

"Um—well, speaking of which, you guys must be exhausted! How about we go to the Pokémon Center to rest for a bit? Once we're almost done with work here, I'll come find you guys and we'll have a big meal together!"

"Having a big meal sounds nice, but—"

Xia Mu winked at Lip, but Lip was clearly clueless and didn't understand what Xia Mu meant at all. So Xia Mu told everyone the story of "Zigong Redeeming People".

"In my hometown, there is a story that has been passed down for a long time — it is said that a long, long time ago, a country, in order to save its residents who had been enslaved abroad, promulgated a law that anyone who could redeem these people and help them regain their freedom would receive compensation and rewards from the country."

However, a wealthy man named Zigong gave up the reward and compensation after redeeming the people, which resulted in the country's citizens who were stranded abroad no longer receiving help.

In this same country, there was another man named Zilu who saved a man from drowning and accepted a gift in return. From then on, this country had a brave warrior who dared to save those who fell into the water. In other words, —

Give me the money!

Xia Mu's self-righteous demeanor stunned everyone who was still pondering the story's implications.

"No, you learned this from hearing such a morally upright story?!"

"You end such a meaningful story like this?!"

Everyone present was speechless.

However, Lip finally understood why Xia Mu had been winking at her earlier, not to mention the story of Zigong redeeming people that was right in front of her.

So she nodded immediately.

"This story is good; good people deserve to be rewarded! I will apply to the alliance for an award for you!"

Xia Mu got the benefit but still acted innocent.

"This... I'm so sorry, but since you insist, I have nothing more to say."

Industry"

Since Lip and Officer Jenny would be handling the aftermath, Natsuki and his friends left Steven, who was explaining the situation in the Rift Hollow to Officer Jenny, behind and took Wanlong, who was always ready to ambush Natsuki, to the nearby Pokémon Center.

Watching Xia Mu and his friends disappear into the distance amidst their playful antics, Lip couldn't help but sigh, "I don't think Xia Mu is as dangerous as the rumors say—although he seems a bit unreliable, he not only tells some very insightful stories, but he also helped us eliminate the threat to Beigu Town!"

"Indeed, I feel like my previous attitude was a bit unfair to Xia Mu!"

Huang Bo nodded as well.

"Okay, I've decided that when I get back to school, I'm going to let the other teachers know that Xia Mu is actually a good kid!"

But just as Lip and Houbo's opinion of Natsuki was changing...

At this moment, at the entrance of the Battered Cave, an Orange Academy student riding a motorcycle lizard, wearing shorts and a white round hat, was blocked by a Flame Queen lizard and a group of Night Thief Fire Lizards holding medicine bottles.

But just as the boy was wondering what the group of fire lizards were up to.

puff-

"Yay!"

???

The student fell into deep thought as he watched the fire lizard spray wound medicine on him and then reach out to ask for something.

After some effort, he gave up the Power Cube and expressed doubts about the cultural environment of Bakegu Town.

Then, not long after, he was blocked by a vibrato salamander.

"Buzzing—"

'

Watching the vibrato salamander perform for itself in front of him and then reach out for something, he tentatively gave it an energy cube.

then.

The tremolo newt walked away satisfied.

Then came another tremolo salamander.

Another Flame Queen Lizard.

It's another trembling salamander.

However, unlike other salamanders, this unassuming form did not choose the energy cube. Instead, it took a banknote from the boy's hand and smelled it against its face.

"Trembling with freshness~"

E

Watching the vibrato salamander swagger away with the money, the boy could no longer hold back.

"Wait, who did these wild Pokémon learn from?!"

Amidst the devastating screams, the boy suddenly froze.

"Wait, who did you learn that from?!"

The boy looked up at the sky and seemed to see countless unscrupulous merchants in the town of Beggars on the rock wall, and wild Pokémon learning from them.

"Huh~"

The boy shuddered.

"Forget it, I'll change my travel itinerary."

However, at this time, Natsuki was unaware of the little story that happened in the Riggle Cave. After arriving at the Pokémon Center, he entrusted all his Pokémon to Nurse Joy for treatment and made Vibrating Wing obediently undergo a physical examination.

While waiting for the treatment to be completed, Xia Mu and the others sat down on the chairs in the rest area. It was only then that Xia Mu finally had a chance to take a good look at Wan Long, who was trying to get him to play some strange games.

"I knew I was very charming, but I never expected you to actually follow me!"

"Following you my foot!"

Wanlong rolled her eyes and then gave Xia Mu a look of disgust.

"If it weren't for subduing Smocha and Laibeicha, I wouldn't have come here!"

At this point, Wanlong's expression turned sorrowful once again.

"Damn it, my perfect plan—"
