273: Chapter 273: The Pursuit of _1 273: Chapter 273: The Pursuit of _1 “All set, tell , what exactly happened?”
Glancing at Feng Yuan, Agunas said,
“You seem to get lazier and lazier, don’t you?”
“Not at all~ Since I have you to help look up information, I don’t need to bother with such trivial matters~”
“I’m not talking about looking up information, the thing that attacked you before has apparently made a move again, but it seems it was stopped by sothing.”
“It made a move on ?”
Feng Yuan looked at Agunas sowhat strangely and shook his tail, to which Agunas denied,
“No, it seems it was near the girls’ dormitory.”
“I see…
Is there a record of it?”
Seeing Feng Yuan staring at him, Agunas shook his head and said,
“No, not a single trace of information left behind.”
“So…
it should be an external force at work, right?”
“Very likely, do we need to call over Lorraine Tower and the others?”
Feng Yuan looked at Agunas with a sowhat amused expression and said,
“Are you that lacking in confidence in yourself?”
Swishing his tail, Agunas calmly said,
“It’s not a lack of confidence, the adversary is beyond my capabilities.
If I don’t call them for help, I can’t ensure your safety.”
“No need, if even you can’t handle it with The Record, then it looks like I’ll have to deal with it myself.”
“They’re not up for it?”
“What do you think?
Don’t underestimate The Record, okay?
Do you think there’s no reason why It reacts so strongly when others touch The Record?”
Feng Yuan, while speaking, carefully picked up the sleeping Xiao Ji and placed it back in its little house.
Seeing the Dreaming Dragon Baby curled up and asleep on the pillow, Feng Yuan chuckled softly and gently picked up the Dreaming Dragon Baby and put it back in its little bed.
After covering the Dreaming Dragon Baby with a blanket, Feng Yuan saw its tail wagging and was about to flick the Dreaming Dragon Baby’s head with his hand but hesitated and ultimately refrained.
“Huff huff~ Morning runs feel so good~”
“Hey!
Why are you hitting !”
Nonchalantly throwing back the pillow that Qi Chen had tossed at him, Feng Yuan said with slight dissatisfaction, while Qi Chen, looking sleep-deprived, glared fiercely at Feng Yuan and said,
“Can you just let sleep well for once!”
“All right…”
Feng Yuan raised his hands in a gesture of surrender and retreated to his own bed, where Xiao Ji was curiously looking on.
After a while, Feng Yuan nudged the sleeping Dreaming Dragon Baby and said,
“Wanna go out and play?”
Barely opening its eyes to glance at Feng Yuan, the Dreaming Dragon Baby huffed a few tis, shifted a little, and ignored Feng Yuan.
Seeing that the Dreaming Dragon Baby was paying him no attention, Feng Yuan had no choice but to leave with Xiao Ji and Agunas.
“How co there are hardly any people around at this hour?
Usually, there’s always a bunch of them hanging around here.”
Seeing the deserted playground, Feng Yuan said with so surprise when Chen Xin’s voice ca from behind him,
“Because most people stayed up late, so they’re still resting at this ti.”
Turning around, Feng Yuan saw Chen Xin dressed in sportswear with so sweat on her forehead, and Yue Bai caught up elegantly and stood beside Chen Xin sizing up Feng Yuan.
“You just finished your morning exercise?”
“Not yet, just ca over to say hi when I saw you.”
“Didn’t you go to the party last night?
I don’t seem to have seen you around.”
Chen Xin smiled and shook her head,
“I was a bit tired, so I didn’t join.”
“And…
after what happened, they probably don’t dare to get close to .”
Seeing Chen Xin’s lonely look and thinking back to when Chen Xin used to be the center of attention, Feng Yuan shook his head and asked,
“Is it worth it?”
“It’s gotten to this point, there’s nothing about worthiness to talk about…”
“Now, I guess I understand why you treated your classmates that way back then…”
Feng Yuan shook his head and said,
“I just find it troubleso, that’s all.
Having many people or few, both are experiences.
For , there’s no need to force myself to repeat sothing I’ve already experienced.”
“How’s it going?
Do you need my help with Wei Wenyan?”
Feng Yuan glanced over and Chen Xin said calmly,
“Don’t test , I will handle what I’ve promised, and it will certainly not involve you.”
“No, Lorraine Tower and Gitalien are resting during this period and happen to be free.
I was thinking, should we have them help you?”
Chen Xin said with annoyance, after glancing at Feng Yuan.
“How can they help?
I know you’re suggesting they prove it directly, but rember, because of the Divine Pact Maker’s existence, they can’t prove anything.”
“True, after all, they’re not well-respected humans…”
Seeing Feng Yuan a bit disappointed, Chen Xin stroked Yue Bai’s head and said,
“You have already helped a lot—no need to wade into these muddy waters.”
Seeing Chen Xin’s determined expression, Feng Yuan scratched his head and didn’t say much more.
After wandering around the campus aimlessly, Feng Yuan took Xiao Ji to the cafeteria for breakfast.
When they arrived at the cafeteria, perhaps because of the party last night, there were not many people even though it was breakfast ti.
Feng Yuan went to the counter, picked out food with Xiao Ji, and looking at the tray overflowing with food handed to him, he hesitated and said,
“Is there a mistake?
This portion seems a bit off.”
“No mistake—you just helped our school win a championship, didn’t you?
This is a gift from the auntie.”
After so refusal, a resigned Feng Yuan carried his tray away and whispered to Xiao Ji,
“Make sure you finish it.
Don’t waste food.”
Looking at the tray Chen Xin was holding for him, which had three tis the usual portion, Xiao Ji’s face turned green.
“What are you planning to do now?”
Just after the morning assembly ended, the weary Grand Elder left the venue and saw a gaunt man standing against the wall in the shadows of the hallway.
He spoke with a displeased tone as the man stepped out of the shadows and looked at the Grand Elder,
“The nightmare incident in Shangjing has nothing to do with us.”
“I know.
Your goals have never been in places like this.”
“But, until the culprit is found, I can’t help you clear your na.”
Wei Wenyan glanced at the Grand Elder and said,
“No need to clear anything.
I’m used to it already—I just don’t want you to misunderstand.”
Watching Wei Wenyan disappear into the shadows, the Grand Elder sighed and said softly,
“Would you actually care what we think…”
“What’s wrong with Xiao Ji?”
After waking up and seeing Xiao Ji sprawled motionless on the table, Qi Chen looked puzzledly at Feng Yuan.
With a glance at Xiao Ji, Feng Yuan said with so amusent,
“Overate.”
“Overate?”
Seeing the Dreaming Dragon Baby lifting its head to look at him, Feng Yuan, lying on the bed, casually poked the Dreaming Dragon Baby’s head and said,
“Yeah, we went to the cafeteria for breakfast, and the auntie insisted on giving three tis the regular portion of food, so Xiao Ji, being honest to a fault, ate it all.”
“Three tis…”
“Right, and if you go, probably the sa thing will happen to you～”
Seeing Feng Yuan’s expression as if relishing the situation, Qi Chen shook his head and said,
“That’s okay, anything I can’t eat I’ll just pack up and take with .”
Hearing Qi Chen’s words, Xiao Ji sat up irritably and glared at Feng Yuan, who flashed a mischievous smile and said, as he glanced at Xiao Ji,
“That’s what you get for being so straightforward—if you can’t eat it, pack it up and take it ho to eat later, simple as that～”
Annoyed, Xiao Ji turned away, presenting its backside to Feng Yuan.
Qi Chen looked at Feng Yuan speechlessly and said,
“Isn’t this your fault?
How would Xiao Ji know it could take a doggie bag?
Be careful, or it might stop obeying your commands.”
“Better if it doesn’t listen—it should have its own opinions.
What will it do if I’m gone one day?”
Seeing Xiao Ji staring at him with a wronged look, Feng Yuan said without words,
“You Spirit Beasts naturally live longer than we humans.
There’s no way I could stay with you for your whole life.”
Qi Chen sighed and looked at Feng Yuan, saying,
“Is now really the ti to talk about such things?”
“Why not?
Like Ah Mu, do you think you can truly be with it for its entire life?”
Stopped by Feng Yuan’s question, Qi Chen sighed deeply and said,
“Forget it, say whatever you want to it—I’m going for breakfast.”
Agunas observed Feng Yuan and comnted,
“If you truly wanted to be with it for life, you could make it happen.”
Seeing Xiao Ji’s distress, Agunas put away his book, comforting Xiao Ji on one side while casting a scornful look at Feng Yuan.
