Actually, I don’t know how strong he really is.

It’s just that ever since we signed the equal contract, I’ve felt that his strength seems greater than mine, which is why I summoned him at that time.”

Sura looked at Ye Yinzhu with a somewhat strange gaze, “An equal contract?

Is it really an equal life-bond contract?

Yin Zhu, don’t tell me that you and that Zi came down from Back Mountain.”

“Back Mountain?

What place is that?” Ye Yinzhu asked in surprise, looking at Sura.

Sura said irritably, “Forget it, I’m not going to tell you.

Last time you said that I was the second person you promised to protect.

So, the first one wouldn’t happen to be Zi, would it?”

Ye Yinzhu nodded, “Yes!”

Sura’s voice trembled slightly, “Could it be, you, you really like him.”

Ye Yinzhu said earnestly, “Of course I like Zi very much.

We have been together for ten years.

When I was six, he was already by my side listening to my zither.

We grew up together and left the blue sky and sea to e here.

He’s my only friend.”

“Really just a friend?” Sura asked anxiously.

Ye Yinzhu nodded, “Why just a friend?

Of course, we are friends.”

Sura said angrily, “Friends, and you sign a life-bond contract with them?

Have you gone mad?”

Ye Yinzhu said, “What’s wrong with that?

I signed it because I hope to see him at any time.

It’s not a big deal if I don’t need magical beasts.”

“You…

Ye Yinzhu, I’ve discovered that talking to you is really like playing the zither to a cow.” Sura trembled again, only this time it was out of anger.

“Playing the zither to a cow?

I used to play the zither to bamboo, could playing the zither to a cow be a new method of cultivating the zither?

That’s not right!

You’re from the Assassin Department, how would you know about our Divine Music Department’s cultivation methods?

Hey, Sura, don’t go, wait for me…”

Sura was indeed fast.

Just as Ye Yinzhu started to move, Sura already disappeared amongst the winding paths of the academy, Ye Yinzhu knew he was definitely heading back to the dormitory, and the battle earlier had taken a lot out of him, so he didn’t bother chasing and leisurely walked towards the direction of the Divine Music Department Dormitory Area.

Upon entering the Magic Department’s premises, he hadn’t gone far before he encountered a familiar face.

It was the wind-attribute Mage prodigy, Roland, who had challenged him on his first day at the academy and then lost to him in the contest.

In Roland’s hands was a bag of something he was eating, his eyes lackluster.

It had been less than ten days since they last met, but Roland had noticeably gained weight.

His pretty face was already being round.

Ye Yinzhu saw her, and naturally, she saw Ye Yinzhu as well, “It’s you.” Her voice turned cold in an instant, as if she was a practitioner of ice attribute magic to begin with.

“Oh, hello, Roland.” Ye Yinzhu looked at her warily, after all, their relationship was not friendly.

“It looks like you’re quite pleased with yourself.

I heard you even won against Nesta from the Heavy Cavalry Department.” As Roland spoke, she had already approached Ye Yinzhu.

Her eyes were fiery; just the sight of Ye Yinzhu sent her anger soaring to its peak.

Since childhood, not only had she lived in luxury, but also with her extraordinary magic talent, she had entered the Yellow-rank Realm at the mere age of sixteen, in addition to having her Green Dragon.

All along, she had considered herself the strongest among her generation, even stronger than her several brothers.

However, it was that battle with Ye Yinzhu that pletely shattered her confidence.

To her, it was not just a simple loss; the challenge had been issued by her, and yet she was the one who was defeated.

The feeling of humiliation alone was unbearable for her.

These past days, she had not been able to walk out of her misery; she wanted revenge against Ye Yinzhu, but it was a fair petition after all.

The last shred of reason and the pride in her heart stopped her from using her family’s power.

Perhaps she consoled herself with food; she could only temporarily feel better when eating.

Although she knew she was beginning to put on weight, she just couldn’t control her eating.

Now seeing Ye Yinzhu, the rage and hatred in her heart almost made her lose control of herself.

“Roland, you seem to have put on weight.” Ye Yinzhu didn’t know what else to say to her, he just wanted to get back to the dormitory, but Roland was blocking his way, and he blurted out those words unconsciously.

“Are you mocking me?

You caused all of this.

If I end up being a big fatso in the future, I will blame it on you, I’ll haunt you for the rest of your life, annoy you to death.” Roland’s eyes reddened as she said things without thinking.

“Uh…” Ye Yinzhu didn’t know what to say anymore.

Suddenly, he remembered a story his mother had told him before leaving the blue sky and sea, “Roland, it’s not good for a girl to be too fat.”

“Mind your own business.” In truth, Roland didn’t know what to do with Ye Yinzhu either; she knew she couldn’t defeat him, but bumping into him here, she didn’t want to just let him off either.

“Let me tell you a story.” While Ye Yinzhu spoke, he quietly shifted his feet to the side, “Once upon a time, there were two pigs, a male and a female.

Every night, the male pig would stand guard over the female pig, afraid that the owner would take the female pig away to be slaughtered while they slept.

As time passed day by day, the female pig grew fatter, and the male pig became thinner.”

“Are you calling me a female pig?” Roland burst out in rage.

“No, no, listen to me finish.” Ye Yinzhu continued, “One day, the male pig suddenly heard the owner discussing with the butcher about killing the well-growing female pig to sell.

Heartbroken, the male pig changed drastically from that day on.

Whenever the owner brought food, the male pig would rush to eat it all.

After eating, he would lie down to sleep, and he told the female pig that it was her turn to stand guard.

If he found out that she was not on guard, he would ignore her pletely.”

Hearing this, Roland’s expression softened slightly, and she asked subconsciously, “What happened after?” The intense fluctuation of emotions had caused her to bee lost in thought, and she had not noticed that Ye Yinzhu had already moved a step to the side.

“As days went by, the female pig felt more and more neglected by the male pig, and she became disappointed while the male pig still led a fortable life.

Soon, a month had passed, and the owner came to the pigsty with the butcher.

He found that the once plump female pig was now left with little meat, while the male pig was slick and shiny.

At that moment, the male pig ran desperately, trying to catch the owner’s attention, showing he was a healthy pig.

Finally, the butcher led the male pig away…”

As the male pig was dragged out of the pigsty, it smiled at the female pig and said, “Eat less from now on.” The female pig was heartbroken; she tried to rush out, but the gate had already been shut by the owner…

Next to the fence, the female pig watched the male pig with tears in his eyes.

That night, as she watched the owner’s family happily eating pork, the female pig lay down in the place where the male pig used to sleep and suddenly discovered writing on the wall: “If love cannot be expressed in words, I am willing to prove it with my life!” The devastating words broke the female pig’s heart, and all humans who heard this tragic story couldn’t help but be moved.

Later on, girls started dieting to memorate this love…”

Roland still stood there, but she had bee frozen in place, and slowly, her eyes became red, two lines of tears quietly slid down, “Such a poor male pig!

Dieting, dieting…” The food in her hands slowly slipped away, and she suddenly realized that her appetite seemed to have disappeared.

“Huh, where’s Ye Yinzhu?

Ye Yinzhu, you…” When she suddenly turned around, she saw Ye Yinzhu’s figure disappearing at the end of the road, and he seemed somewhat frantic.
