Long Shiyan fell silent as her fist clenched tightly. The system did not speak anymore and stayed beside her, allowing her to think.
“I won’t allow you to take my elder sister away!”
Rude and unreasonable words suddenly resounded, rousing the silent Long Shiyan along with System Qian Qian, who was swimming in the water.
“Linglong.”
Zi Linglong took off all of her clothes, lifted her slender and white thighs, and moved into the water. Then, she walked over to Long Shiyan’s side, feeling wronged and peeved. She put Long Shiyan within her embrace. “I won’t allow my elder sister to leave.”
“Y—you overheard?” Long Shiyan’s eyebrows drooped, and she allowed Zi Linglong to hold her. She relaxed and forgave Zi Linglong even when she did eavesdrop on their conversation.
“No matter what you decide on, I won’t allow my elder sister to leave.” Zi Linglong tried using a threat with arrogant and irrational words. She actually understood what they were saying, but she didn’t know what else to do.
Feeling that she was being held tightly, Long Shiyan extended her legs, moved her waist back, and then sat on Zi Linglong’s lap. She spread her arms and wrapped them around Zi Linglong’s neck to comfort her.
“Elder Sister.”
Zi Linglong mumbled under her breath and used her own face to rub against Long Shiyan’s. Because of their difference in stature, when Long Shiyan was sitting on Zi Linglong’s lap in the normal position, she would be completely stuffed into Zi Linglong’s bosom. But when they were both sitting in this position, their eyes were facing each other.
Long Shiyan preferred this hugging position as she felt how warm it was. Yet, she knew she would lose this warmth when she departs from this world alone. Their bodies pressed closer to the other’s as if they reverted back to their original nature.
System Qian Qian saw their embarrassing posture and decisively left. She also went to check her records. How did Zi Linglong avoid her surveillance? Had she already awakened?
But that should not be possible!
Now, she must send Long Shiyan off without delay.
“You don’t need to worry once I leave.” Long Shiyan sensed the turmoil within Zi Linglong’s chest and whispered in her ear. Ever since the Long Aotian crisis was resolved, Long Shiyan spoke about the matters of this world to Zi Linglong freely. Because of this, Zi Linglong understood a lot of things.
“But I’m afraid!” Zi Linglong shuddered for a few minutes. Then, she suddenly pulled Long Shiyan while holding her cheeks and directly kissed her little lips.
Long Shiyan was dumbfounded. When she snapped back to reality, her lips were already occupied by Zi Linglong’s. She quickly struggled away and asked her, “Linglong, what are you doing?!”
Zi Linglong jumped in fear. “Elder Sister, I—” She didn’t know why she did this, but she felt that she would only be at ease by doing this action.
Looking at the innocent Zi Linglong, Long Shiyan sighed. She had long felt Zi Linglong feelings for her. Before, she was kind enough to tell Zi Linglong that only couples could kiss each other. She had been carefully guiding Zi Linglong’s education, but she did not expect to make this mistake and allow Zi Linglong to kiss her.
Did she hate it?
No!
She had no choice but to admit that she liked the feeling of being hugged and kissed by her, but that was not enough to go steady with her. She could not give Zi Linglong a guarantee. Moreover, she did not know whether or not she loved Zi Linglong. If Zi Linglong loved her, but she could not reciprocate those feelings at all, then wouldn’t that be very unfair?
“It’s fine. There is no need to feel guilty.” Long Shiyan glanced at her. “I was the one who kissed, not you. Is there any need for you to feel wronged?”
“Elder Sister is not angry?”
“I am that kind of stingy person?”
“Does Elder Sister like this?” Zi Linglong asked cautiously.
“What did you say?” Long Shiyan glanced at her. This girl was really unscrupulous and spoiled. As long as she compromised with her, Zi Linglong would ask for more. She was really worried that she would become completely unrestrained in the future and kiss her without being afraid of the consequences.
“Oh.” Zi Linglong gloomily mumbled to herself. “Elder Sister is the same as always, never revealing her feelings entirely. I was so anxious that I was about to die!”
“What are you worried about?”
“I just want to marry Elder Sister! Then, I’ll make it so Elder Sister will never leave me.” Zi Linglong’s eyes were blank. “If we enter a married relationship, then Elder Sister will never want to leave me.”
“Where in the world could I marry you?” Long Shiyan lowered her gaze and began to break away from Zi Linglong’s embrace. “I don’t know what will happen to me in the end, besides, I don’t really like you.”
Any excuse that girls couldn’t be together was completely useless. Zi Linglong knew about the relationship between Nikaela and Shirley. These two girls became shy and red-faced after reading pornographic books, but who knew what mischievous things they had taught Zi Linglong?
In addition, there were many love affairs within the school, and she often assisted with them. She could be considered an angel of love. Anyway, she reaped what she had sown. With a wide network of people, Zi Linglong was susceptible to becoming corrupted, which led to the current situation.
In the school, as long as they were close friends with them, most of them knew that Zi Linglong liked Long Shiyan. Some supported this, while others didn’t. Some hoped that Zi Linglong could get together with her. They believed that Long Shiyan would become more lenient with reprimanding and educating them every day if they did get together. With the power of love, they would certainly overcome any troubles that came their way.
Everyone had seen Long Shiyan’s accomplishments, so they had been eager to let Long Shiyan get a taste of happiness. Of course, there were some exceptions who believe that Long Shiyan was a god who did not need to fall in love.
So while most remained neutral, the people against her did not.
“I don’t believe that Elder Sister doesn’t like me.”
“I’m talking about love. As for ordinary ‘like,’ I, of course, like you. But as for love, even I don’t know whether I love you or not,” Long Shiyan whispered.
“Oh” Zi Linglong curled her lips; she really did not know what to do with her. “I will wipe Elder Sister’s body!” She puffed her cheeks out, both sad and dissatisfied by Long Shiyan’s words.
Long Shiyan wanted to resist Zi Linglong and take a bath by herself, but after a few moments, she gave up. Zi Linglong’s thoughts were pure and she didn’t have any ulterior motives.
The next day, Long Shiyan got up early.
Perhaps she would depart today, or perhaps tomorrow. But because she did not know when System Qian Qian would send her back to Earth, she decided to visit the various departments on campus today. To make this clear, this was an important business and not just for fun!
Zi Linglong was still sleeping so Long Shiyan couldn’t bear to disturb her.
First of all, she went to the Holy Spirit Group, which was the area under Edgar’s jurisdiction. The assignments of the Holy Spirit Group’s departments were much more organized than the Student Holy Spirit Group’s. Each of the departments had their own areas. First, she arrived at the alchemy area, which was equivalent to modern scientific research.
Stepping into the alchemy area, the three beauties of the department were extremely eye-catching. There weren’t many people who studied alchemy, so girls who were so beautiful and talented were sparse.
These three girls were the ones who Long Shiyan saved in the Magical Beast Forest and the ones who refined the Douqi pellets. Now, these three all assumed their own responsibilities as professionals.
The three were currently studying magic crystal cannons. According to their opinions, it was necessary to develop a new type of weapon by deriving from the principle of the magic crystal cannon. This kind of weapon was individually small but more powerful in numbers.
After Long Shiyan left, she went to the magic area. Here, there were more familiar faces. The great beauties of the dance department, Nikaela and her lover, were here. These two little girls were the ones who corrupted the innocent Zi Linglong. In addition, she also met Nangong Lingli and Ling Qingwu. Before, Ling Qingwu liked Long Aotian, but after knowing Long Aotian’s true nature, she became downhearted. Nowadays, she was often together with Nangong Lingli. However, their relationship hadn’t progressed by that far.
But Long Shiyan believed that they would get together sooner or later.
She confirmed that Nangong Lingli was secretly in love with Ling Qingwu. From the original, she knew there were signs of their feelings for each other, but now she could confirm her suspicions after some observation.
Long Shiyan also came across Yu Qingrou, who was alone and lost in thought, and decided to have a chat with her. She did not blame Long Shiyan. Now, she only wished to wait for Yu Su to come back.
Long Shiyan went to the swordsmanship area again. Here, she found Dinas, the one who tried to kill her in the Magical Beast Forest. However, both of them decided to let bygones be bygones. Although she was not her friend, she was still contributing to the school.
Long Shiyan did not drive her away.
When she was preparing to go back, the sky was painted in red, and the red giant star reappeared. But soon, it was tied by countless chains and soon disappeared.
Everyone completely stared blankly at the spectacle.
Long Shiyan was also extremely surprised. The last time it emerged, she used her perception to sense it. But this time, she saw the star with her own eyes, causing her astonishment. This was totally different from the original story.
She doesn’t know what was happening.
She only knew that the star was related to Zi Linglong and that it was known as the Red Yin Demon Star.
Long Shiyan’s mood was getting heavier. It seemed that even if she left, it would not end the problems of this world. Only by checking on Zi Linglong would she be at ease.
She wanted to go back and find Zi Linglong, but her footsteps halted. A beautiful and lovely girl suddenly ran to her, sweetly calling out, “Elder Sister Yan Yan!”
“Huh? You’re not Elder Sister Yan Yan. I got the wrong person, I’m sorry!” After she saw Long Shiyan’s face, she became scared and immediately drew back, apologizing repeatedly.
“Pfft~!”
Long Shiyan could not help but laugh. “Don’t apologize, I am your sister; I just changed my appearance.”
“Really?” She lifted her beautiful little eyebrows as her adorable nose twitched. She was so cute.
“Of course. I still remember that I took you to the mountains to peek at the ice beauty while she was bathing?” Long Shiyan smiled lightly, but her eyes continued to look around. Since this girl had come back, Shuang Yu should be back too.
“It really is Elder Sister Yan Yan!” Her eyes brightened as she rushed over to Long Shiyan again. Regarding that incident, only she and her elder sister, Yan Yan, knew about it.
“Going to the mountains to peep at me bathing?” A inquisitive voice stemmed from behind her.
The little girl closed her lips tightly as her eyes wandered around. Then, she sent a look towards Long Shiyan as if to ask, “What should I do?”
Long Shiyan gestured to reassure her and then turned to the direction of the sound. She noticed a tall, long-haired beauty who appeared to be dyed in ice. The people surrounding them retreated, but the only one who approached the beauty was the little girl. She rushed into the beauty’s arms regardless of the cold atmosphere encompassing her.
Saint realm?
Long Shiyan frowned. She was worthy of being the dragon race’s prodigy. Even if she didn’t face Long Aotian, her growth still soared.
“It should be fine to have a little fun!” said Long Shiyan.
“Indeed,” the woman said coldly, “I have just returned from Dragon Island.”
Long Shiyan’s brow locked together. “Do you wish to avenge your elders?” She really didn’t want to fight this person because she was Yu Su’s future wife and her good friend.
However, their two personalities were similar, rendering their dialogue simplistic.
“No, I just came to pick up their remains. By the way, I wanted to ask you about what your thoughts on Dragon Island are.”
Long Shiyan said faintly, “There were thousands of deaths amongst the school’s teachers and students. The perpetrators’ deaths cannot wipe away their crimes, yet you want to take their remains without any issues. Do you think I can allow you to do that?”
“Elder Sister Yan Yan” Seeing the deadlock between the two, Yu Su hurriedly tried to smooth things over by running to Long Shiyan’s side. She persuaded, “Elder Sister Shuang Yu has not finished yet. What we brought treasures that are equal in value to exchange for those dragon corpses. We shouldn’t fight. Everyone should remain on good terms and live happily.
We also know about the tragedy with our fellow students and teachers, but the dragon race had also received retribution. Their leader is dead. So, how about we make a trade for those bodies?”
Long Shiyan swept a glance at Shuang Yu and said, “With the corresponding equivalent items of exchange, it should not be impossible. Go seek Belinda and ask her to take you to the underground cavern to see the corpses.”
“Thank you!” Shuang Yu replied as she held Yu Su’s hand and left.
As Long Shiyan watched their departing backs, she called out, “Su Su, your mother is waiting for you to come back to the magic area. Go and see her. Don’t go out trying to find a wife while forgetting about your mother!”
Once she said that Long Shiyan hurriedly ran home.
“Mom!” Yu Su froze, looking back towards Long Shiyan. However, Long Shiyan had long departed. Then, she then looked towards Shuang Yu. “Elder Sister Shuang Yu.”
“You can go see her.”
After getting permission to go, Yu Su was elated. She dragged Shuang Yu’s jade-like hands and dashed towards the magic area. Shuang Yu also followed her, but when the two stopped, Shuang Yu asked, “Su Su, what was that about peeking at a certain ice beauty while she was bathing?”
Yu Su almost fell. She giggled. “I can’t tell you that because it’s a part of Elder Sister Yan Yan’s dark history, so please forgive me for not telling you!”
