Chapter 46: Down into the Yellow Springs

  "Okay, we're in second grade..."

  The roar in the well had taken away Bi Luo's courage to speak, and she began to cast her worried gaze at the roaring well once again.

  Frowning tightly, I've never seen a woman so timid. Of course, I've also never seen such an arrogant senior.

  "I say...” Dry Qian raised his head to look at the two people in the well, his tone was very calm and didn't have a hint of anger as he said: “If you guys shout again, believe it or not, I'll immediately go get a few stone blocks used for warrior training and throw them all down here to greet you? Don't think that just because you've fallen into the well, I won't mind throwing more stones down to smash you to death. Fallen into the well? Throwing stones down? Hmm! Fallen into the well and throwing stones down!"

  Qianjin stroked his chin, looking at the two seniors who were submerged in water with their mouths closed, and laughed: "I suddenly realized that I have a language talent. Such a long sentence can actually be simplified into four words: 'falling into the well and throwing stones'. Am I not very clever?"

  Two sophomore warrior students were soaking in the water, you look at me, I look at you, who dares to ask a dry question. For someone who doesn't even ask if others can swim and just throws them into the water, who can guarantee that he won't... kick someone when they're down! That's right! Who can guarantee that he won't kick someone when they're down?

  "Awesome!"

  A voice full of pride and anger suddenly rang out not far behind Qian Jin.

  Zhu Li Si stood with her hands on her waist under the moonlight, she had dressed up specially today, wearing a red tight-fitting dress that accentuated her perfect and fiery figure among people of the same age, her long hair scattered casually over her shoulders, having an inexplicable allure.

  Tonight, Zhuli Si waited for a long time in Qianjin's dormitory, but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't wait for Qianjin. If it wasn't for hearing someone's scream just now and running over to see what happened, she might still be waiting for the person she wanted to wait for.

  "Apologize!" Zhu Li's hands were on her hips, glaring at Gan Jing, her beautiful eyes flashing with anger: "You must apologize to me right now! I can forgive you for your rudeness this morning."

  Zhū Lǐsī has grown up so big, but she has never been treated like this before. Today, she deliberately waited for Qián Jìng for half a day to demand an apology from him, and unexpectedly ended up waiting for such a long time.

  "You... you..." Gan Jing pointed at Zhu Lisi, hesitated for a moment, with a very serious expression: "Who are you?"

  ……

  Quiet, the well beside fell silent again, Zhuli's whole body was trembling, not a tremble caused by fear, but a tremble born of anger. Someone had seen her in the morning and asked who she was at night! And what's more, he asked with a serious face, without any sign of pretending.

  "Who am I? I am Zhuli Si!" The words, laced with a quivering anger, accurately entered Qianjin's ears.

  It's not surprising that Jian Jin didn't recognize her, as he hadn't taken a good look at her in the morning and had only glanced at her briefly. Moreover, Zhu Lisi was wearing a loose magic robe back then, which is different from the tight-fitting outfit she has on now that accentuates her figure. Additionally, Jian Jin hadn't paid much attention to her before, and the lighting conditions at night didn't help either.

  He didn't recognize him, and Gan Jing felt that he had done nothing wrong. If it were a personal matter, then one would have to remember on their own, but then again, what's the point of doing anything if all you're going to do is remember names?

  "Oh." Gan Jing's face showed a 'I remember' expression, with a hint of confusion: "Why should I apologize to you?"

  "Why are you apologizing to me?" Zhuli's fingers were trembling, thinking that the coldness in the morning was because he was embarrassed in front of many people, so he deliberately ignored himself. He thought that by tonight, he would definitely apologize and admit his mistake, but he didn't expect the other party to have any intention of reflecting on it at all.

  "You don't know either? Then what do you want me to apologize for?" Qian Jin no longer paid attention to Zhu Lisi, and this person's proud appearance reminded him of another woman. For a moment, he even felt that the images of these two people overlapped, although they looked different, but their condescending attitude, thinking that all men should fawn over her because of her beauty, was exactly the same.

  "Bai Luo, being able to possess spiritual power and elemental perception is a very fortunate thing." Gan Jing thought of himself, no matter how hard he tried, still couldn't feel any magical elements, his eyes showing a faint envy: "At this time, you should go back to meditate, instead of doing laundry work here."

  "Do you think she wants to be a laundry worker?" Zhu Lisi's proud voice rang out again: "She doesn't do laundry work, who would partner with her for the exam? Gan Jing, wanting to make friends with a magician? Then you shouldn't waste your time on her either, I'm the one you should be making friends with. Bi Luo, aren't you going to wash clothes yet? Be careful or I'll let all the second-year male students not help you find an exam partner..."

  The timid Bi Luo suddenly became quick and agile in her movements. She crouched down on the ground, stretching out her hands to pick up the clothes that had fallen off her body.

  "I say......" Qian Jin crouched beside Bi Luo, tugging on the clothes she was holding: "The exam, I can be your partner. The school's exams are quite diverse, there are also magic and martial arts combined exams."

  "Don't..." Bi Luo's voice was timid yet determined: "I want to become the greatest magician. Thank you for your help, I don't need pity."

  Qian Jin was slightly stunned, feeling the clothes in his hand being snatched away by Bi Luo. He looked at the petite figure gathering clothes on the ground, and memories flashed back to a certain moment in the past when he had also said these words.

  "Thank you for your help, I don't need pity."

  "Sometimes accepting help is a kind of courage. One day you will understand."

  The old man's voice echoed in his mind, and Luo Lin's fat figure soon appeared in his mind. This fat man, who looked full of business oil, made the silent self at that time, the self who refused others' help, slowly open the silent heart door, and he also began to understand the meaning of the old man's words when he was at the lowest point in life.

  "Really?" Qian Jin stood up, scratched his head and looked at Bi Luo's small figure: "Sorry. I've heard people say that before, sometimes accepting help is also a kind of courage. One day, you'll understand."

  Biluo's body trembled slightly as she picked up her clothes, motionless and crouched on the ground, staring blankly at the scattered clothes on the floor.

  "Qian Jin!" Zhu Li Si stared at Qian Jin's departing back and stamped her foot, shouting: "You actually treated me like this! You'll regret it! I'm going to gather all the boys in school to take turns challenging you! Whoever wins against you, I'll go on a date with them!"

  "Have you had enough? If so, then get out."

  An icy voice, like ice, flowed out from under Bili's large magical hat, where was the half timid look before?

  "What did you say? Bì Luò, you......" Zhū Lǐ Sī's shout had just reached halfway when her body suddenly shook violently with a severe chill. She saw... she saw Bì Luò, who was normally timid and cowardly, and didn't have even the slightest bit of magical power, not only stand up from the ground! But also......

  Under the starry night sky, the wide magic cloak of Bi Luo couldn't be automatically controlled. A strong magical power surged out from the cloak, blowing his magic hat slightly backwards and his black silky long hair stood up towards the sky.

  "Bì luò? You recognized the wrong person." The tone under the magic hat was as cold as it could freeze the air, Zhū Lǐ Sī stared at those seemingly magical eyes and listened to that confident, strong and cold voice coming again: "I am Huáng Quán!"

  A cold wind swept up from the ground, and icy well water covered Zhu Lisi's body, instantly adding a layer of frost to her surface, making her look like an ice sculpture from afar.

  Single-body magic! Zhuli was frozen in shock, staring at Bili, the worst female student in the second year of the Magic Department, who could actually release single-body magic! No need for a magic scroll, just simple chanting can release single-body magic! Oh my god! How did she do it? Single-body magic isn't something that requires a group of magicians to use on a drawn magic array?!

  Under the moonlight, the one who called himself Huang Quan slowly turned around, his icy gaze sweeping across the clothes in the basin, as if he was scanning useless trash.

  She slowly lifted her head, gazing at the round moon in the sky. Her long black hair floated behind her, carried by the floating magic. Her deep eyes finally showed a hint of emotion. Her pale hand gently placed on the slightly raised chest where her heart was: "Bì Luò, you're tired. Just sleep for now. When you wake up, your clothes will be washed."

  Biluo and Huangquan are very important roles. Recommendation votes, member clicks...
