Chapter 11 - A Dangerous Classmate!

“Hahahaha!”

Li Sinian rocked back and forth with laughter and could hardly breathe.

She collapsed onto the bed and looked up at Li Muyang, gasping. “Brother, what made you have such a serious misunderstanding of yourself?”

Li Muyang’s black face was now wrapped in white gauze, so others could not see clearly what his skin color was at this time. However, he dared not look directly at her. He reached out and firmly mussed Li Sinian’s hair as revenge. Then, Li Muyang said with hesitancy, unsure of himself, “I know that I can never be a huge dragon. After all, I don’t look like one at all.”

“Brother!” Li Sinian grumbled coyly, allowing Li Muyang to rub and pull her hair. She blinked her pair of innocent and clear eyes at Li Muyang. With consideration for his feelings, she asked, “What’s happened? Why did you come up with such a strange question?”

“Nothing.” Li Muyang shook his head with a wry smile. “It was a dream. I dreamed about a dragon. In the dream, I tried to see the dragon’s appearance but only found that its eyes looked the same as mine. So I was wondering if I looked like a giant dragon.”

In her heart, Li Sinian felt a little worried. She had heard that every dream was a metaphor for something real. For example, if a person became a powerful man or a fierce animal in their dream, they had to feel inferior deep down in real life.

Therefore, Li Sinian held Li Muyang’s hands tightly and comforted him. “Brother, in my heart, you are a giant dragon. But since you are the dragon that has descended into the shallow water, you can’t give full play to your ability and wisdom. Once you are well enough, you can definitely make clouds and bring rain as well as overturn seas and fly up high beyond the highest heavens like a great dragon.”

Li Muyang reached out and rubbed Li Sinian’s nose, and then said fondly, “Silly girl, are you acting like my spiritual mentor again? I know myself well enough. I am a good-for-nothing now and will continue to be a good-for-nothing, so I suppose that I will need you to take care of me in the future.”

Li Nianian threw her arms around Li Muyang’s neck and said with a broad smile, “Brother, don’t worry. I will provide meals and accommodation for you. Also, I will help you find a wife.”

“But I want two wives,” said Li Muyang.

“No, that’s not going to work.” Li Sinian disagreed.

“Why not?” Li Muyang was confused.

“I will get angry when you just get one wife. How could I tolerate two wives? I will think about how to poison them to death all the time!” Li Sinian explained.

“Then, I will marry no one. Is that okay?” Li Muyang asked.

“No!” Li Sinian refused. “If you don’t get married, Mom and Dad will be very sad. If so, my heart will be filled with sadness as well. Since I can accept only one sister-in-law, you can get yourself one, and only one, wife.”

“…” Li Muyang was speechless.

He looked out at the sky and asked, “How long have I slept?”

Li Sinian’s face became gloomy and said, “Two days and nights.”

“What?!” Li Muyang was shocked and asked, “How could I sleep for such a long time? Where is Cui Xiaoxin? Did she come here?”

Li Sinian’s eyes suddenly brightened. With intense curiosity, she whispered her questions, “Who is Cui Xiaoxin? What is your relationship with her?”

“Cui Xiaoxin is my classmate.” Li Muyang was busy recalling the conflict that happened at the Beast-faced Pavilion and took no notice of the change of Li Sinian’s expression. At that time, he punched the killer in black up into the air. Then, Li Muyang looked down at his wrapped up fist and thought to himself, “How could I punch the killer into the air?”

Li Muyang was completely unfamiliar with the way of cultivation, but he knew clearly that the man in black was a master.

The killer used the sword of light and summoned those crows by using the Void Gate. All of this looked awesome and intimidating.

Li Muyang felt that something had gone wrong with him recently. There seemed to be a beast in his body that wanted to break out of him.

He became irritable and cranky. Sometimes, he got mighty power from nowhere. On the lake tour, he directly sent Zhang Chen flying with one punch. This fact was clear proof.

As Li Muyang remembered, someone called out “evil beasts” later on. After that, a light ball as bright as the sun rose above his head.

When the crows were all gone, and the light ball vanished, Cui Xiaoxin also disappeared.

“What exactly had happened to Cui Xiaoxin? Was she rescued or hijacked? Who was the man that shouted ‘evil beasts’?” Li Muyang asked.

He was very anxious to know the answers to these questions immediately.

“I certainly know that she is your classmate. I also know that she is a well-known beauty of our school and a top student of senior grade three. Moreover, she got the highest scores in all the courses of senior grade three. I have been an excellent student for many years, but it is the first time that I found someone who can be a match for me. I heard that you were sent here from the Beast-faced Pavilion located at the school entrance. But it was during school hours! Were you two on a date at that time?” asked Li Sinian.

Li Muyang denied it and said, “How could it be possible that we were on a date? Look at my face, do you think that I deserve her?”

Li Sinian shook her head, then nodded and said, “But I heard that a good man always has a bad wife, and vice versa. Brother, as long as Cui Xiaoxin is blind enough, you will no longer need to worry about your ugly looks. Do you want me to poke her in the eye and blind her?”

“…” Li Muyang was speechless.

But then, Li Sinian shook her head and said, “Forget it. Maybe she will become my sister-in-law in the future. I should show her some respect.”

When she saw Li Muyang’s anxious look, Li Sinian stopped teasing him deliberately and said, “I haven’t seen Cui Xiaoxin here. You are staying in the Zhuge Clinic and are receiving Doctor Zhuge’s treatment. Someone has arranged both the clinic and the doctor for you. If I am right, this person should be Cui Xiaoxin. After all, our family doesn’t know any big shots in Jiangnan City.”

“Can you go to our school and ask around if she has gone to class?” Li Muyang grasped Li Sinian’s hands and begged in a low voice.

Li Sinian felt a little bitter in her heart, as if someone else was going to take her treasure away. With her mouth twitching, she said viciously, “Oh, you find it very hard to part with her now, right?”

Li Muyang shook his head and said, “At that time, the situation was very dangerous. I am worried about her safety.”

“I see.” Li Sinian looked at Li Muyang’s eyes and said, “I’ll go to the school today and ask around for you.”

“Thank you.” Li Muyang grinned.

“Stop laughing,” Li Sinian said, “When you are smiling, you look like a big black bear. I can’t see any part of you except for your white teeth.”

“…” Li Muyang fell silent.

He didn’t know when he had made this young lady angry again.

…

“Creak!”

A satin-covered luxurious carriage painted with peonies and birds stopped in front of the Zhuge Clinic. Behind the bead door curtains hanging in the carriage, there was a girl in a double-breasted dress. The dress was decorated with violet lotus flowers and cinched her in at the waist. She was about to push the door open and go out. However, a man in a blue robe sitting in front of her stopped her. He asked, “Miss, are you really going to take the risk of visiting him?”

“Take a risk?” The girl raised her eyebrows slightly. “The Zhuge Clinic is the Cui Family’s private clinic. Why do you think it is a risk? I just want to visit my classmate who saved me.”

The man said, “Miss, we have arranged the best clinic for him and have asked the best doctor in Jiangnan City to examine him. Or even, at your request, we have also invited the most famous doctor in the Imperial Hospital of Heaven Capital. You wanted to know how much trauma he suffered from the thunderbolt that he came across when he was just born, so this doctor also helped to check his brain area. He saved your life, so the Cui Family will gradually repay this favor. But, Miss, I think you’d better not get yourself involved in any of this.”

“Are you worried that someone will try to assassinate me again?” The girl lifted her eyebrows slightly and said gently, “But you guys are guarding me by my side, aren’t you?”

“Miss, the real danger that we worry about is precisely the patient that you are going to visit this time.” The man in the blue robe hesitated the whole time and finally told her the concern hidden in his heart.

“Li Muyang?” The young girl frowned. She didn’t like others to talk about her friend like that.

“Yes.” The man in the blue robe nodded. “This time, the killer that attacked you in the Beast-faced Pavilion is Crow, one of the top 20 killers of the empire. He is a man of high cultivation who is very good at summoning various birds to attack. In the Dark Realm, he is called ‘Bird King.’ But surprisingly, your classmate blocked his Cherry-blossom Chop twice in a row. And he even punched Crow up into the air the third time. Miss, this classmate is very dangerous.”

Cui Xiaoxin couldn’t help laughing and said, “If he heard your remarks, I suppose that he would be delighted!”

“Miss…” The man wanted to say something more.

“Uncle Ning, I’ve thought about it. I know your concern.” The girl interrupted the man in the blue robe again and said, “However, I can’t deliberately choose what I should forget or remember. When the killer wielded his sharp knife to attack me, it was him who rushed over bravely and grabbed the long knife several times simply with his palms…”

“Clatter!”

Cui Xiaoxin pushed the door open and got out of the carriage. Then, she raised her head and landed her eyes on the small building hidden behind those cherry blossom trees.

These splendid and beautiful cherry blossoms had the same bright-red color as the blood that dripped from between Li Muyang’s palms that day.
