Chapter 275

This is what Fu Hua is thinking: to take Shen Gonglin, her family, back to a place she can call home. She believes that once she gets there, her complicated feelings will be calmed down, and she can then accept her mission and quickly become the Fu Hua that everyone needs.

Hearing Hi Fu's words, Chiyuan nodded slightly. She could tell that the girl in front of her was indeed in a state of confusion. If returning to Mount Tai Xu could help her calm her mind, then it would be a good choice. In that case, she would go with her on this journey.

"Okay, let's go then."

"Okay, let's go!"

With his hands tucked under Shen Gonglin's arms, Hi Fu braced himself and prepared to set off. Two phantoms swiftly streaked across the sky, their destination: Mount Tai Xu!

Meanwhile, on the Hyperion, Theresa looked with some concern at the two people in front of her who were loading their luggage onto Helios Theresa was indeed worried about letting the two of them go alone, but what they said seemed to make sense. There was no other way but to let the two of them go.

"Kiana, Bronya... Are you two really going? Or should I wait until I've finished dealing with things here and then go with you two?"

Theresa spoke uneasily, heaven knows why these two little girls suddenly decided to go to such a far place, Theresa couldn't understand at all.

"No need, Headmaster, you can go about your business. The two of us can go without any problem. The Class President taught me how to control Herrscher energy before. After thinking it over, I'm sure Bronya and I will gain something from going to the place where the Class President used to be. Headmaster, you don't need to worry."

Kiana patted her chest to reassure Theresa that there was no need to worry. She and Bronya had made up their minds. They couldn't stand what had happened anymore. If they stayed in the Hyperion any longer, they felt like they were going to turn green with envy. Training the Herrscher to control their powers was just a pretext. The real purpose... well, need I say more!

Kiana and Bronya exchanged a glance, both seeing the determination in each other's eyes. They made their decision: to set off!

Chapter Forty-Two: Mount Tai Xu

A black and a red shooting star streaked across the sky. With the high-powered flight of the Hi Fu, a misty mountain peak quickly appeared before Shen Gonglin. Because they had been flying through the clouds, Shen Gonglin, unusually, wasn't overcome by her fear of heights this time. Putting everything else aside, being in the arms of this rather high-spirited Class President ...

That's truly reassuring. It feels like it would be nice if the Class President really had that kind of personality. But the Class President's personality used to be quite good... aside from her tendency to shoulder everything herself, she had everything that Shen Gonglin Jingu liked, so...

Can't I have both? Shen Gonglin wants the happiness of having both. After all, he's an adult now and shouldn't be making this kind of choice anymore.

"Hey, what are you thinking? This is where I used to live, it's my hometown. Look, isn't it beautiful? It feels so warm and familiar."

Hi Fu descended from the sky with Shen Gonglin, showing her this place that resembled a fairyland. Just looking at the scenery, it was indeed beautiful, easily deserving of a 5A-level scenic spot. Mountains, clouds, flowing water, and lush bamboo forests. Hi Fu put his hands on his hips and looked at Mount Tai Xu with satisfaction. Not bad, not bad, this was his former home. Now that no one else was around, returning here truly brought him a sense of peace.

"Indeed, nothing here seems to have changed. It seems that no one has come here since we left, and the people in the village at the foot of the mountain have not damaged anything here."

Looking around, the Immortal Chiyuan was filled with nostalgia. Every blade of grass, every tree, every leaf, every autumn—she had spent a long time in this place called Mount Tai Xu. Here, she founded her sect, took on disciples, and taught. And then... Chiyuan shook her head. She recalled those years that could hardly be called pleasant, but everything was in the past. Those old friends had all vanished like smoke.

"I didn't ask you... where's Shen Gonglin?"

Hi Fu frowned and glared at Chiyuan. She couldn't stand the sight of this feather. It was still in an abnormal state, so how could it think that she was the real one? How could she make it realize its place? Moreover, Hi Fu was very concerned about its gaze. This girl always looked at her with the eyes of an elder looking at a child, which was really annoying.

Hi Fu didn't like being with her like this; she'd rather be all lovey-dovey with Shen Gonglin. The girl looked around; where was Shen Gonglin? Had that guy gotten lost somewhere again?

"There it is, it must be because you landed too quickly just now... Shen Gonglin's physical fitness is not as good as the Valkyrie's, and the high-speed impact would make him very uncomfortable."

Chiyuan pointed to the Shen Gonglin who was lying by the stream not far away. Her words made Hi Fu frown involuntarily. It was that lecturing tone again. Did she think she didn't know? Did she need to emphasize that she and Shen Gonglin had such a good relationship? She had just forgotten about it for a moment.

What's with this feather? Is she showing off how well she knows Shen Gonglin? She should know him better than anyone else. Does she even know Shen Gonglin's strengths and weaknesses? Of course not.

"Hey, what's going on? How are we supposed to ride roller coasters like this? You've ruined this beautiful stream. I used to use this stream for bathing."

Hi Fu rolled his eyes at the self-righteous Feather and secretly planned to "casually" reveal to her how close he and Shen Gonglin were. That should make her mentally collapse, right? That would be really interesting. With that thought, Hi Fu went to Shen Gonglin's side and patted his back. Tsk tsk, the poor guy had thrown up. He hadn't eaten anything and all he vomited was bile.

"I don't like roller coasters... Class President, I'm so hungry! Look, I can't even throw up anything. Is there anything to eat here?"

Shen Gonglin lay down by the stream and vomited everything up. Then he looked up at the two Class President with a pitiful expression. Unlike the two ethereal fairies who didn't eat, Shen Gonglin needed to eat. He had only eaten a bowl of tofu pudding in the morning and had been eating ever since. If he didn't eat soon, Shen Gonglin felt that he might become an immortal.

"Food... Shen Gonglin, now that you mention it, I'm really hungry too. One bowl of tofu pudding isn't enough, and I had that fight with Kevin... Hey, do you know where I can get some food?"

Hearing what Shen Gonglin said, Hi Fu also felt her stomach growling. The girl covered her stomach and squatted down next to Shen Gonglin. Then the two of them looked at Immortal Chiyuan. Immortal was speechless. Looking at the two pairs of eyes staring at him expectantly, Chiyuan suddenly felt like a kindergarten teacher. So you only know to come to me when you're hungry? Didn't you say that Mount Tai Xu is your hometown? Then you should be the one to solve this kind of thing.

She cursed inwardly, but the problem still had to be solved. Looking at the two useless people in front of her, Chiyuan sighed. Oh well, even if it wasn't for her sake, Shen Gonglin still had to take responsibility. She really couldn't let Shen Gonglin go hungry. She didn't need to eat in her current state, but Shen Gonglin needed to eat properly.

"I remember that when I was at Tai Xu Temple, I used a secret method to store some grain. It should still be intact. I can use it to steam some buns. There's also Spring Immortal... If you want to eat meat, there should be fish swimming in this stream. Try to catch some."

Chiyuan pointed out the way to earn a living, and of course, the one being relied on was not the lazy Shen Gonglin. Perhaps to save face, after hearing what Chiyuan said, Hi Fu volunteered to stand up and patted his flat chest.

"Oh right, I just remembered, there seems to be a cellar underground in Tai Xu Temple. There should be some flour in there. As for catching fish, leave it to me, Shen Gonglin. Keep a close eye on things. My fish-catching skills are a closely guarded secret."

After saying that, Hi Fu lightly leaped into the stream, splashing water all over Shen Gonglin's face, while Chiyuan tugged at Shen Gonglin's sleeve and pointed to the bamboo over there.

"Let her catch it like that, we'll use this."

Only barbarians would catch fish like that, even though there are readily available tools. This unusual Class President doesn't seem to be very bright.

Chapter 43 Changing Clothes

"Poor fish, why are you catching fish..." Looking at the Hi Fu thrashing in the stream, Shen Gonglin took a step back with a hint of apprehension. This Hi Fu reminded Shen Gonglin of a husky throwing a tantrum. She decided to leave the fish-catching to her. Shen Gonglin had no intention of going into the water or making a harpoon. Guided by Akane, Shen Gonglin arrived at a Chiyuan temple, Tai Xu Temple. This was it.

Pushing open the door and stepping inside, Shen Gonglin. To be honest, it really matched Shen Gonglin's first impression of Daoist temples: simple and unadorned, exuding an atmosphere of tranquility and detachment. Shen Gonglin couldn't stand living here for a long time. However, this used to be the Class President's hometown. He wondered if there were any good things here.

"This is the Tai Xu Temple, and that used to be the kitchen... Wait, Shen Gonglin, what are you trying to do? That used to be my bedroom..."

Looking at everything familiar before her, Chiyuan let out a soft sigh. Seeing these things reminded her of the days when she was an immortal on Mount Tai Xu. However, all of that was in the past. Over the years, everyone who knew her in the small village at the foot of the mountain must have passed away. Before Fu Hua Shen Gonglin continue reminiscing about the past, Shen Gong Lin happily ran into another room. Chiyuan instinctively sensed something was wrong. When her phantom chased after her, she saw Shen Gonglin ransacking her former bedroom.

This guy really doesn't treat himself like an outsider, even though he certainly isn't an outsider.

What are you looking for here?

Without the interference of the Hi Fu, the two could finally be alone. Chiyuan of white light appeared, and Akane, who was in a phantom state, revealed her physical form. She sat on the edge of the bed, watching Shen Gonglin rummaging through the drawers and cabinets with curiosity. She didn't mind Shen Gonglin messing up her room. In fact, Akane wouldn't say anything if Shen Gonglin Chiyuan up her own room.

"Of course I'm looking for your private items, Class President. It's not easy to come all the way to your hometown, so of course I want to find some spoils. Just like girls go to boys' rooms to find porn, boys also have things to do when they come to girls' rooms. It's the law of nature."

Shen Gonglin casually replied to the Class President, while Chiyuan was completely dumbfounded. What kind of natural law was this? She had never heard of such a thing before. And for him to say he was looking for her private items in front of her, his master... As expected of Shen Gonglin, this blatant bullying was infuriating. But who could blame her for being Shen Gonglin, so arrogant... she could only endure it.

"If you're looking for H-books, you can go to Mei's room. That girl seems quite proper, but actually she's rather... how should I put it? Anyway, I don't think I have what you're looking for here..."

With her hands on either side, Fu Hua shook her head with amusement. She didn't feel that she had anything that Shen Gonglin wanted. Speaking of Mei reminded her of her time in St. Freya, which was truly unforgettable. Is it true that people only cherish something after they've lost it?

"Found it!"

Chiyuan was in a daze, but then she heard an excited voice coming from Shen Gonglin's side. Chiyuan snapped back to reality and saw Shen Gonglin running towards her happily with a set of black clothes in her hand. This set of clothes... right, these were her old clothes.

"Class President, Class President, look, isn't this your clothes? I can almost smell your scent on them."

Shen Gonglin ran over like she was showing off a treasure, but Chiyuan's eyes were strangely fixed on her. Why was Shen Gonglin so excited to see her clothes?... Speaking of which, Shen Gonglin does seem to have a special fondness for girls' clothes. Not to mention that he transforms into a woman when he uses his ability, strictly speaking, he's still wearing Kiana's cat hoodie right now. Could Shen Gonglin really have some special hobby?

Although it's not a big deal, Shen Gonglin is cute enough as she is, it just feels... a little strange.

"Don't smell it! You... you really like this kind of clothing that much... Well, then I'll give it to you. You can wear it... but it's best not to let anyone else see it."

Seeing Shen Gonglin burying his face in his clothes and sniffing deeply, Chiyuan felt uncomfortable, as if goosebumps had appeared on her skin. She turned her head slightly away to look at Shen Gonglin. This guy was really going too far, but what could she do? Shen Gonglin liked it, and if he liked it, she had no choice but to give it to him.

"Huh? You're giving it to me? Thank you so much, Class President... No! I don't need it. I'm taking it so you can wear it. Class President, try it on and let me see. It'll look really good!"

He almost got distracted by the Class President. Shen Gonglin doesn't like wearing girls' clothes at all. When he saw this outfit, his first reaction was to make the Class President wear it for him. Without a doubt, the Class President would look absolutely stunning in this outfit.

"Huh? You want me to wear it? But I..."

So that's what Shen Gonglin meant. Looking at the clothes he was holding, Chiyuan looked troubled. Changing her own clothes wasn't a big deal, but why was she so interested in her clothes? And wasn't she supposed to come over and cook?

"No buts, Class President, hurry up and put it on so I can see. You'll look really beautiful in this outfit. Just let me see, I really want to see."

Shen Gonglin stuffed the clothes into Chiyuan's arms, while winking at Chiyuan vigorously. Although the Class President was sometimes a bit old-fashioned, she would be very tolerant if he acted cute. Shen Gonglin often took advantage of her, and the Class President was not good at refusing if asked.

"You really want to see it that much... Well, then there's nothing I can do..."

Just as Shen Gonglin thought, the Class President was indeed very bad at refusing, or rather, very bad at refusing Shen Gonglin. As long as he wanted it, Fu Hua would agree without hesitation. It was as if she subconsciously didn't want to disappoint Shen Gonglin. It was just a piece of clothing. If Shen Gonglin wanted to see it, she would wear it and show it to him. It wasn't a big deal... right?

"Then go out, and come back in when I call you... Wait, why aren't you out yet?"

Chiyuan hesitated, but Shen Gonglin simply turned around. If she went out, it would mean she was treating him like an outsider.

Chapter Forty-Four: The Rebellious Disciple

"Class President, you're showing a lack of trust in me. We're such good friends, do you think I would peek at you while you're changing? That's a huge distrust of me. Don't worry, I'm fine as I am, I won't turn around. Go ahead and change."

Shen Gonglin straightened her back, leaving Chiyuan with her back turned. As the saying goes, a gentleman is open and honest. If she really had such thoughts, what difference would it make if she went out? Would that guarantee that she wouldn't slack off? She might even be suspected by the Class President. So it's better to stay here and not turn back. Shen Gonglin was serious.

Yes, how could she not trust Shen Gonglin? Fu Hua shook her head. It could be said that in this world, the only person she trusted most was Shen Gonglin. She believed that he would not lie to her about this matter. She could never doubt her own disciple. Really, had his brain become dull after being sealed for so long? When Shen Gonglin said he wouldn't peek, he really wouldn't.

"... Okay, then you can't turn around until I've changed."

"Yes, yes, don't worry, I promise."

Shen Gonglin made a solemn promise, and behind him, he could hear the rustling sound of changing clothes. His Shen Gonglin senses made him imagine the scene behind him. The Class President should have taken off his clothes by now, which meant... this was the best opportunity!

With a resolute turn of her head, Shen Gonglin instantly forgot her previous promise. Only a fool would keep such a promise. The Class President is so naive. Such behavior is tantamount to letting a cat sleep on a salted fish. Let her show the Class President how cruel this world is. In this cold world, you can't trust anyone.

However, when Shen Gonglin turned around, he didn't see the scene he wanted to see. In Shen Gonglin's eyes, Immortal Chiyuan was still sitting by the bed. But she hadn't even unbuttoned a single button, let alone taken off her clothes. The sound just now was just her rubbing the clothes in her hands. When Shen Gonglin turned around, Chiyuan showed an expected smile on her face.

Does this guy think he's an idiot? After being taken advantage of by Shen Gonglin so many times, even an idiot would know what kind of person Shen Gonglin is. Do you really think he'd obediently turn away and not peek? He might as well believe that Kevin often has bachelor parties with Otto. I knew this kid would betray my trust. When it comes to disappointing me, Shen Gonglin never disappoints me.

"Class President! You actually didn't believe me! I knew you were a fake. If it were the real Class President, she would definitely believe me. I never thought you were this kind of person. I'm so disappointed in you!"

Before Chiyuan could speak, Shen Gonglin immediately turned the tables. Shen Gonglin reacted extremely quickly in this kind of situation. He looked incredulous, his finger trembling as he pointed at Chiyuan, as if she had committed some heinous crime. Who could imagine that this seemingly honest and kind Class President would resort to such methods? Is there really nothing trustworthy in this cold world?

"... Where did you learn this skill of being unreasonable? You clearly betrayed my trust, didn't you? I knew you wouldn't behave yourself. Come on, let's go out and knead the dough to make steamed buns. Aren't you hungry?"

She rolled her eyes at Shen Gonglin, put the clothes aside, Chiyuan stood up to leave. How could she possibly change clothes with this guy around? She knew without a doubt that he would peek. There would be plenty of opportunities to see her in these clothes, so there was no need to rush.

"I am hungry, but I want to feed my eyes first. Class President, since you're not cooperating, don't blame me!"

A glint of light flickered in his eyes. Shen Gonglin was the kind of person who was willful and capricious to begin with. Now that he was really interested, did the Class President still think she could run away? That was wishful thinking. Since she was unwilling to cooperate, he would have no choice but to help her himself. After all, a disciple should serve his master when he needs help.

Reaching out and grabbing Chiyuan's wrist, Shen Gonglin pushed her back to the bedside. Then she pounced on her. Today, no matter what, she was determined to make the Class President change into these clothes. Shen Gonglin was determined; no one could change her mind. That's what he said!

"Shen Gonglin, what... what do you want to do... I'll change, okay? Get out, I'll change, I'll change right now..."

It seems like things have gone awry again. As everyone knows, Shen Gonglin is a very funny guy. Anyone would be happy to see him looking so frustrated, but he can easily go too far. And now it seems like I'm facing that situation. Sitting on the bed, Chiyuan started to cower as Shen Gonglin approached. His current state terrified Chiyuan. Where did my cute and obedient apprentice go?

Who is this rebellious disciple now?

Oh, I forgot, Shen Gonglin has never been well-behaved.

"Hmph, too late. I'll do this myself. Class President, you just need to lie down."

Holding the black Daoist robe in his hand, Shen Gonglin pounced on her. After a long period of training, Shen Gonglin had mastered the skill of undressing others. He pressed down on Chiyuan and began to perform the act on her. In the past, he had always taken off his own clothes. Shen Gonglin rarely tried taking off other people's clothes.

"Haha... It tickles, Shen Gonglin, stop... stop messing around, it tickles so much... I'll wear it, I'll wear it myself, okay?"

The once ethereal and otherworldly Immortal Chiyuan had now become a wriggling maggot on the bed, desperately trying to dodge Shen Gonglin. However, this only increased the contact between the two. If only she had changed her clothes earlier, she wouldn't have ended up like this. So Fu Hua began to beg for mercy, wondering how she had offended this guy. He was so petty.

"No need, no need, Class President, you're still quite weak, leave this to me. Be good, don't move, you'll be fine in a bit, I'll be quick... Tsk, this sounds so strange. Never mind, Class President, just cooperate a little."

Shen Gonglin sat on Chiyuan and pressed down on her hand. Perhaps because she was weak from relying on her feathers, Shen Gonglin actually had the upper hand in terms of strength this time. He uttered those villainous words and his hands did not stop moving. Although Immortal Chiyuan tried her best to resist, it seemed to be in vain.

However, she seemed to have forgotten something very important: she could now become ethereal, something she had never even considered before.

Chapter Forty-Five

"Hurry up, Class President, lift your butt up a bit, it's hard for me to do it like this... Tsk, you're too slow, I'll do it myself. Honestly, you're such a grown man, and you can't even do something this simple. Let me do it..."

Inside the room, Shen Gonglin was forcing Chiyuan to put the Daoist robe on her, and Immortal Chiyuan's resistance was getting weaker and weaker. Her originally ethereal face was now flushed, and she was completely different from her previous calm and composed self. Immortal Chiyuan bit her lip and turned her head to the side. To be honest, this Class President was so beautiful that it was indescribable.

Immortal Chiyuan, I wasn't lying.

Happily carrying out her work, Shen Gonglin smiled like a villain who had succeeded in his plan. The Class President's attitude had changed from awkward to half-hearted. Just as expected, no matter how resolute the Class President usually was, as long as Shen Gonglin patiently acted cute, she would easily cross her bottom line. The Class President was not very good at refusing, or rather, not very good at refusing Shen Gonglin.

Finally, she could finally hold her head high! Shen Gonglin felt refreshed and invigorated. In the past, she had always been suppressed by Kiana, Mei, and Hi Fu... But now, facing the Class President in her Chiyuan form, Shen Gonglin finally rediscovered her inner strength as a powerful attacker. It seemed that the problem wasn't with her, but with the other girls being too abnormal. Girls should be like the Class President!

"What are you two doing!"

However, at that moment, the tightly closed door behind the two was kicked open. Hi Fu, holding several large fish in her arms, stared at everything in the room with a dark face. The fish tails that kept thrashing about were hitting her face, but the girl had no time to care about such things. Her bright red eyes were staring fiercely at the scene in the room. She had seen this kind of scene before.

Mei's Book

After a chaotic scene, the room finally returned to calm. Ignoring the fishy smell and water stains all over me, which were proof of my hard work, I felt that the two obediently kneeling by the bed were even more despicable in comparison. While I was trying to think about their bellies, they were busy with their own pregnancies.

What? While you're catching fish, they're already planting seeds in your belly?

"I never expected you two to be like this. I went through all that trouble catching fish, and here you two are doing this kind of thing. Weren't you supposed to be steaming buns? Shen Gonglin, were you kneading dough just now? Let me tell you, no matter how good the baking powder is, it's impossible to make dough this size bigger!"

Enraged, Miss Hi Fu launched into a personal attack, pointing at her unruly "feather" and unleashing her fury. Meanwhile, Chiyuan, who was still trying to understand why she was kneeling with Shen Gonglin, felt insulted. This girl was implying something, and didn't she feel any remorse when she was talking about her? They were practically one body, and there was no difference between them.

"You've misunderstood. Shen Gonglin and I were just changing clothes. It's not what you think."

I'm the real one, aren't Immortal Chiyuan calmly explained. She was trying to free herself from that inexplicable guilt. Why was she feeling guilty? She really didn't understand. It was just a simple change of clothes... Even if there was a problem, it was Shen Gonglin's problem. She was also a victim.

"If it's not what I think, then what is it? Changing clothes, do you not have hands or feet? Why should Shen Gonglin help you change? Don't be so arrogant with just a feather. Sit down properly... And you, you sent me aside to catch fish, and the two of you were doing this kind of thing at home. Do you know how cold this stream is!"

At this moment, Hi Fu was like a clamoring head of state. After scolding Chiyuan, she turned her attention to Shen Gonglin. This guy had no sense of admitting his mistakes. Even at this moment, he was still secretly scratching Chiyuan's calf, who was kneeling next to him. Didn't he feel any remorse for himself?

Shen Gonglin Jingu, that scumbag! Hehe!

"So we came back to steam buns, right? It was just a misunderstanding, nothing more. In the end, it's all because of the Class President... I mean, this Class President doesn't trust me. If she had obediently changed her clothes for me, this wouldn't have happened. In the end, I could only help her change her clothes. So if you want to scold her, scold her. I'm innocent."
