Chapter 64: The Calm Before the Storm

Proofreader: Illya
(TLN: Starting from some past chapter, Yu Shu’s name turned into Yu Su, or “Su Su” She’s Yu Qingrou’s daughter. If you have forgotten, Long Yuqing is Long Shiyan’s aunt and Long Aotian’s main wife in the original plot and Yu Qingrou is the one who helped take care of Long Shiyan after her family was destroyed. So, I will be going back to previous chapters to change Yu Shu to Yu Su.)
Zi Linglong cried loudly as Long Shiyan tried comforting her with great difficulty.
But after the girl cried enough, she stuck onto Long Shiyan like a piece of gum, unwilling to release her. “‘Don’t cry,’ ‘don’t cry,’ Elder Sister shouldn’t say such cynical remarks. Don’t you know that you have been in a coma for eleven days? Do you know how worried I’ve been during the days you were in a coma?”
Zi Linglong screamed and couldn’t stop crying.
“Eleven days?!” Long Shiyan’s expression changed drastically as she swiftly cast a gaze towards the system. The system nodded with a complicated expression across her face. Long Shiyan asked, “In regards to the school’s martial arts competition, what happened to it?”
Zi Linglong rubbed her tears away and tried to keep herself from crying. “Although many problems had arisen, it successfully continued. Tomorrow is the final phase where we will hold the annual celebration of successfully hosting the martial arts competition and distribute the rewards to the participants.”
Long Shiyan had a grave expression. “Who won the competition?”
“It’s Long Aotian,” Zi Linglong said as she sighed in sorrow. “He successfully defeated the Elven Princess and won the championship. I must say that he is really strong. He was a peak ninth-level warrior, a seventh-level magician, and a magic and martial arts dual cultivator.”
“How about Shuang Yu? Did she appear on-stage?”
“No! She went to the Radiant Empire with Su Su to eat delicious food and never came back. She’s a dragon, but she is not interested in the Tianxin Grass. It’s really strange.” Zi Linglong appeared puzzled.
Upon hearing the news, Long Shiyan removed the blankets but was hugged by Zi Linglong. She asked, “Where is Elder Sister going?!”
Long Shiyan whispered in a gentle tone, “There is something I have to do; I need to go.”
However, Zi Linglong refused to let her go!
She didn’t know what her elder sister was planning to do, but every time she went off somewhere, she would get injured. This time she was in a coma for eleven days. She just woke up, but she wanted to go out again. How could she let her sister go?
“Be obedient!” Long Shiyan whispered softly, “Hurry up and release your elder sister, your elder sister just needs to go and ascertain one thing. I’ll be back soon, okay?”
Zi Linglong was not fooled as she rigidly refused to release her. “Maybe there are many important things for my elder sister to do, but to me, Elder Sister is my most important person. Therefore, I will never let my important person leave my eyes.”
“You…” Long Shiyan was speechless; she looked up towards the system, “Qian Qian, do I still have time?”
When she said that, she meant whether or not she still had time to solve the matter with Ling Qingwu. In the original book, Ling Qingwu fell into Long Aotian’s hands on the night of the victory celebration. Through various events, her love for him was confirmed in this event.
Until the third day of the victory celebration, Long Aotian and Ling Qingwu were behind a hill doing sensual activities, but they were caught by Nangong Lingli on the spot. Nangong Lingli mistakenly believed that he gave her friend another painful experience. She was so angry that threw a flying kick at his “thing.”
The power was just enough to not injure her close friend.
As a result, Long Aotian, who was just about to enter, was finished. Then, he fled to cultivate his “magic power.”
Therefore, she must arrive at tonight. Even if he already captured Ling Qingwu, she couldn’t allow Long Aotian to get away with it. Today, he won the championship, so his popularity in the school shouldn’t be bad. Furthermore, with the Tianxin Grass in his hands, his dragon could breakthrough into Saint-level.
Ninth-level dragons were extremely powerful, so how could she let it break through into the Saint realm? Let alone allowing Long Aotian to capture another woman from the plot. She couldn’t imagine how awful it would be if Long Aotian’s protagonist halo were to be restored.
“Right now, there’s still time,” the system replied.
Long Shiyan immediately used her soft and flexible body to escape from Zi Linglong’s restriction.
When Zi Linglong saw that Long Shiyan disappeared from her arms, she madly rushed to the front door. Both of her hands stretched out to prevent Long Shiyan from getting out. But Long Shiyan smiled. “Stupid, you can’t stop me.”
“Even if I can’t stop you, I will stop you!” Zi Linglong gritted her teeth. She suddenly changed her disposition and switched to her berserk state. She still unwaveringly extended both of her arms out, displaying her determination.
This change was too fast, and Long Shiyan was completely stunned by her resolve. What was going on? Her expression suddenly became cold, and she replied, “Do you understand what you are doing?! You want to stop me by using your disposition?”
She was inwardly angry.
However, Zi Linglong remained motionless and unaffected by her words.
She did not intend to tarry with Zi Linglong any longer. Looking at the location of the window, her figure flashed quickly. However, her calf was caught, and then she was thrown back onto the bed.
Long Shiyan jumped towards the door in an instant, but the Zi Linglong’s speed was also very fast. Very soon, she used her body to block Long Shiyan’s way. Because she didn’t have time to brake, she bumped into Long Shiyan.
Long Shiyan was angry, so she brandished her épée. She gritted her teeth and threatened, “Step aside!”
Zi Linglong ignored her words and also took out her own sword.
In her berserk state, Zi Linglong had the strength of a mid-ninth-level fighter. However, she was extremely strong as her speed and physical attack power were very formidable. Unfortunately, she couldn’t use douqi.
Although an ordinary ninth-level fighter was in front of Long Shiyan, she was exceeding her limits. She could easily attack her and run. Besides, even if Zi Linglong wasn’t in her berserk mode, it would take a lot of time for Long Shiyan to defeat her.
Besides, this person was still Zi Linglong.
“Glorious Heart!” Long Shiyan said as she attacked with her consummate skill right away.
Zi Linglong was unable to escape. Her sword was fragmented by the collision between weapons, so she was forced to block the attack with her arms.
“Boom!”
Zi Linglong used her body to block the blow, but her footsteps did not recede. The injured arm had some serious scars. Some of the black armor coatings fell off, but a new layer soon grew out.
“You.”
Long Shiyan couldn’t help but take a few steps back.
She gritted her teeth and initiated another “Glorious Heart,” but was obstructed by System Qian Qian. “Host, don’t attack!”
Glancing at the system that floated in the air, she saw that it was stopping her with an anxious expression. Long Shiyan temporarily gave up using her skills. “If I don’t pass by, then my mission will fail. I’m serious. If I don’t go, then we may all die. Therefore, I must go.”
“No!” System Qian Qian unwaveringly blocked her way.
“You are a system, the embodiment of logic and rationality, and yet, why are you so bound by your emotions?” Long Shiyan looked up at her. “If this is the case, then I will first force you to move away.”
“Glorious Heart!”
System Qian Qian closed the eyes as it got ready to endure the attack. However, Zi Linglong suddenly moved in between them. In the end, the épée struck her black covered back but could not break through her skin.
In this way, Long Shiyan almost went mad. This was the first time she lost control of her emotions after her parents died.
The system sneaked out of Zi Linglong’s embrace and said, “She has done a good job of stopping you from going. If you want to fight, she will continue to use her berserk mode to stop you. Her berserk state cannot be used excessively.”
“Step aside!”
Zi Linglong still did not move.
Long Shiyan once again tried to flee out of the window but was caught by Zi Linglong and flung onto the bed.
She tried moving again, but she couldn’t lift her sword.
Compared with other girls’ minds, which were based on emotions, she was more rational and thought-oriented. So she felt that what she was doing the most correct choice.
Zi Linglong was like an ordinary girl. Her thoughts were mainly based on emotions, so she didn’t want her sister to leave her anymore. She did not want to continue living through her days in anxiety.
It was extremely painful.
But Long Shiyan couldn’t understand her at all!
So, even if her elder sister tried to kill her, she would not be afraid! The joys and sorrows that she had felt in this life were hidden deep within her mind. But her elder sister’s ability to do this was better.
Her elder sister rescued her from the dark world like an angel, but now her sister was hurting her. Her heart ached and she wanted to cry, however, she couldn’t show those tears.
Why are you stopping me?!
“Transcending! One’s! Spirits!”
Zi Linglong closed her eyes and braced herself for the sword’s impact.
However, the sword stopped in mid-air.
Between emotions and logic, she did not expect that she would be defeated by emotions. She released all of her strength, threw her épée aside, and laid back onto the bed.
Zi Linglong carefully looked at her and found that she really did not escape. She quickly undid her berserk state and pounced onto Long Shiyan.
Without speaking, she stifled her tears.
Long Shiyan said after a moment of silence, “Your body is covered in black; you need to go wash up.”
“Come with me.”
“Yes.”
In the warm water, Long Shiyan observed the ceiling. Meanwhile, Zi Linglong washed her own body beside her. When she was clean, she apologized in front of Long Shiyan, “Elder Sister, I’m sorry!”
“I’m unworthy of your apology.” Long Shiyan bowed his head and noticed Zi Linglong’s red and swollen arm. She said in a low voice, “Does your arm still hurt?”
“There’s no pain!” Zi Linglong smiled.
“Let me see.”
Long Shiyan held Zi Linglong’s right arm in front of herself.
A spotless jade arm appeared before her, albeit slightly reddish. Long Shiyan extended her own small hand to touch it. Then, she held onto the arm with both of her hands and slowly stroked it.
Zi Linglong seemed to enjoy her caressing.
Long Shiyan let go of her hand and asked, “How do you feel now?”
Zi Linglong was startled as she said, “When did Elder Sister learn healing magic?”
Long Shiyan lightly smiled and said, “I learned how to while I was asleep.”
“Elder Sister, could you improve my qi?”
“What did you say?” Long Shiyan gave her a blank look, but she didn’t get angry this time. Now that she was too late, she could only wait until three days pass before sneaking to the back of the hill and forcing Long Aotian to stop. However, nowadays, when she thought about Long Aotian and Ling Qingwu getting together, she felt that it would be easy for Ling Qingwu to become his wife.
“Host, you shouldn’t be so pessimistic!” System Qian Qian suddenly floated out and said in a proud tone, “I just used my clone to check if there was any way to stop it. Through the clone, I discovered that Nangong Lingli was watching in the vicinity. Then I drew her away from them so their relationship wasn’t revealed to her yet.”
Long Shiyan stopped moving and stared blankly. She had to say that this was great news.
Nangong Lingli was a very arrogant girl in the original book, and she also hated Long Aotian. It could be said that she was completely unaffected by Long Aotian’s protagonist halo at the beginning. Later, Ling Qingwu continued to brag to her about how good and strong Long Aotian was.
Then, under Long Aotian’s influence, Ling Qingwu continued to help Long Aotian reconcile with Nangong Lingli. Finally, when Long Aotian saved her life, Nangong Lingli changed her perspective of him.
But in the end, she was tortured to death by Zi Linglong.
It could be said that she was a very tragic character.
The system said, “You can’t relax. Since the school is currently besieged on all fronts, many forces are secretly invading the school. Right now, the school is really in disorder.”
“Hmm.” Zi Linglong continued after the system and said, “What Qian Qian said was not wrong. Now the school is not only fragmented, but the students are also anxious. After all, the Saint-level experts had abruptly disappeared and the Holy Spirit Magic School has no leaders. News of our internal situation has been spreading silently to the outside forces who are greedy for our power. The parents of many students have begun to inform the students to temporarily leave school and wait for the storm to die down. Right now, many students are waiting for tomorrow’s award ceremony to finish before going home to take refuge.”
Long Shiyan was flabbergasted because this was the first time that Zi Linglong had participated in a discussion with the system Qian Qian. This didn’t align with her personality. However, she quickly snapped back to reality. “The students’ choices are correct; it really is dangerous here.”
“Then, Elder Sister, what should we do? Should we also leave the school to take refuge, or…”
Long Shiyan simply closed her eyes and asked, “Will you give up on Belinda and the others to escape?”
“I…” Zi Linglong could not reply. They were partners ready to go through thick and thin together, so there was no way she could abandon them. Furthermore, considering the personality of her teammates, they would rather choose death than giving up on the school.
“Will Elder Sister abandon them?” She only asked because she was unable to determine Long Shiyan’s thoughts. Between choices formed from intuition or logic, it was really difficult for them to choose.
“No.” Unexpectedly, Long Shiyan answered without hesitation. “No matter what the reason is, we can’t give up on the school. Tomorrow, I will reveal my identity at the closing ceremony of the school’s martial arts competition. I will personally give Tianxin Grass to the champion of the competition.”
“Elder Sister wants to reveal her identity?!” Zi Linglong’s eyes brightened. If Long Shiyan was going to reveal her identity, then wouldn’t Zi Linglong always be able to stay next to her elder sister in the future?
“Yes.” Long Shiyan nodded. “Right now, the school needs us, and we need the school. There are too many enemies and if we don’t unite, then we might truly perish.”
She was originally the world’s enemy, so something big would come her way no matter what she did. Anyway, since the Holy Spirit Magic School was surrounded on all fronts, she decided to borrow a part of the world’s power to play a game. A game to see who was the real master of this world.
Although the Holy Spirit Magic School was not strong, its resources were indeed one of the best to train a powerful reserve army.
Given time for the students to mature, it would not be impossible for the school to be restored to its peak.
“Host, there is something very important that I have to tell you.” The system that didn’t talk for a long time suddenly spoke up. What left her mouth was extremely shocking news. “Long Yuqing and Yu Qingrou have unexpectedly heard the news that the school was in dire straits. I don’t know when, but they used a transmission device to relay that they would make you and Zi Linglong go home. But they plan on staying here to protect the school.”
