127: Chapter 127 New Roommate

Xing Yaoyan did not understand:

Why such an explosive event as "a Fourth-order Longxiang Academy student being defeated by a single punch from a Third-order Saintess of the Demon Race" was surprisingly quiet online.

Moreover, these past few days she had not heard anyone discussing this matter, and her reputation in human circles had not changed at all.

"It seems Elder Zheng handled this matter very well; it really didn't require any worry on my part..."

Lying on the sofa, Xing Yaoyan nodded. Since she couldn't figure it out, she simply attributed all the credit to Professor Zheng Buxie.

She was still thinking about finding a time to visit his laboratory; otherwise, she would really feel bad.

She had no classes today, and her absorption of the Power Of Will had temporarily hit a Bottleneck, so she had nothing to do for the moment.

Even if she went out, she would always see Qian Mo hovering around her, and he would occasionally ask her boring questions—like, "Do you know what my shortcomings are?" or "You're a bit strange today, did you know that?"

After asking, he would look at her with an expectant face, as if waiting for her response.

And every time, she would find all sorts of excuses to escape.

So, she simply stayed in the dormitory, boredly scrolling through Yin Fu.

Seeing that the comments under the videos about her were uniformly filled with terms like "powerful," "charming," and "beautiful," Xing Yaoyan nodded with some satisfaction.

Suddenly, she caught a glimpse of a comment under a clip of her arena battle:

"Do you guys feel that Young Miss Xing Yan has explosive boyfriend energy, okay!"

The likes on this comment had also soared to over 10k.

"Hmph... I suppose you have a good eye."

Xing Yaoyan nodded proudly and casually added a fierce like.

To be honest, although Xing Yaoyan had long accepted the fact of her gender swap, deep down she did not want to be treated as a weak woman; this was why she was always so assertive in public.

However... the young girl's cheeks suddenly flushed red.

She didn't know why, but every time she was in front of this guy Qian Mo, she would lower some of her defenses and display a coquettish, feminine manner she had never shown before.

"No way!" Xing Yaoyan sat up abruptly, clenched her pink fists, and said fiercely:

"Tomorrow is the day I agreed to go on a... private exchange with him. If the outside world sees that he holds the initiative, wouldn't the persona I painstakingly built collapse?!"

Then, she pulled out paper and pen from thin air and quickly wrote down her plan for tomorrow.

"That's right, I must take the initiative in these few things... This way, to outsiders, it won't look like a couple's date, but rather a private exchange between two good friends."

Suddenly, her pen tip paused, and her expression instantly became somewhat serious.

But the young girl quickly tossed the paper and pen aside, lay back down on the sofa, and muttered to herself:

"Sigh~ There's still a mission tomorrow... I hope the handover goes quickly; it would be best if he doesn't notice anything amiss..."

...

A day passed quickly. Early the next morning, at the boys' dormitory.

Yun Lan looked with disdain at the young man who was frantically spraying cologne at the mirror.

"Yun Lan, is it okay for me to dress like this today?" Qian Mo turned and asked suddenly; the strong scent of perfume he brought with him instantly made Yun Lan sneeze.

"Uh..." Looking at the young man before him, dressed in a suit, with his hair combed meticulously, and wearing leather shoes, Yun Lan's mouth twitched violently.

"Trust me, you should hurry up and take off this outfit, go take a shower, don't do anything else, and just wear simple casual clothes. I guarantee the effect will be a hundred times better than this."

"But..." Qian Mo was very confused. Based on his experience from his past life, when meeting important people or participating in important activities, one should dress like this.

"You really have zero common sense in life..." Yun Lan said, covering his face.

"First, this is your first time meeting, which belongs to the stage of getting to know each other; you just need to dress cleanly. Second, dressing like this makes you look pretentious, and it also puts invisible pressure on the other person, which isn't conducive to closing the distance with her..."

Since he understood the nature of his bad friend, Yun Lan patiently explained in simple language.

Only after seeing Qian Mo nod half-understandingly and walk into the bathroom with another set of clothes did he nod with satisfaction.

He thought to himself: Fortunately, you have me, your strategist, to offer advice; otherwise, with you being an emotional idiot, you might really have ruined a date with a 99% success rate...

Yun Lan sighed helplessly again. Just then, an indifferent voice came from the doorway.

"May I ask... is Qian Mo, the boss of this dormitory, here?"

Yun Lan turned around quickly and saw a cold-faced white-haired youth standing at the door. His clothes were very rough and stood out in stark contrast to the surrounding environment.

Suddenly, his eyes narrowed. He noticed that there were spots of dark red blood on the youth.

"You must be our new roommate." Yun Lan grinned and put on a friendly smile. "Hello, my name is Yun Lan. May I ask what your name is?"

"Cut the crap, I'm asking you where Qian Mo is?"

You guy... The smile on the blonde youth's face froze, and bulging veins were faintly visible on his forehead.

Daring to look down on me? Also! What do you mean "Qian Mo, the boss of this dormitory"? Does that make me just a lackey? It seems that if I don't teach you a lesson first, I really won't be able to keep you, this newcomer, in check...

Thinking of this, Yun Lan got a bit angry. He saw his Aura change, and a peculiar six-sided die instantly appeared in his palm.

"Kid, do you need me to teach you how to respect a Senior..."

But to Yun Lan's surprise, the white-haired youth didn't show any of the expected reactions; he just opened his mouth slightly.

"I advise you not to make a move against me; I'm afraid you won't be able to handle it."

"Yo! You kid are quite arrogant!"

Yun Lan's competitive spirit was also aroused. Although he didn't like to get into conflicts with others, this was, after all, a roommate he would be living with in the future. If he were suppressed by this newcomer, he would lose all face if it got out.

"Wait! Wait!" Just then, a bespectacled youth ran out from behind the white-haired youth, blocking the two people who were at daggers drawn.

"Sorry, Yun Lan. My name is Feng Qing, and I'm also your new roommate. This is my newly recognized Big Brother, Feng Xiu."

Suddenly, the bespectacled youth quickly leaned into Yun Lan's ear and whispered:

"Big Brother Feng just came out of the 'City of Sin' not long ago, and his personality is like this. We'd better not provoke him; he really will kill people... Oh right, do you know about the 'City of Sin'? Let me tell you..."

"Stop, stop, stop. I know, don't say anymore."

Yun Lan turned his head, looking with some trepidation at the white-haired youth still standing at the door, whose Aura was becoming increasingly powerful.

Then, he suddenly smiled. So what... it's just killing; who hasn't killed before...

"Yun Lan, what's going on? Why is it so noisy outside?" At this moment, Qian Mo, dressed in casual clothes, walked out of the bathroom, holding a towel and wiping his dripping hair.
