You Have to Take Responsibility for Me

"Bastard... you bullied me..."

Wang Dong let go of his mouth and sat on Chu Feng, her pink-and-blue eyes brimming with tears as her lips drooped. The grievance in her eyes threatened to spill over; she was clearly terribly upset.

She'd been careful to hide it every day, especially around Chu Feng. She'd been extremely cautious, thinking she'd concealed everything perfectly, but she hadn't expected him to have known her identity all along.

All those days of hiding had become a joke.

Even imagining things from Chu Feng's point of view made her so embarrassed she wanted to dig a hole with her toes.

And Chu Feng knew she was a girl, yet he'd still treated her like this. Not only had he made her scrub his back, he'd also made her do every dirty and exhausting chore. He'd obviously done it on purpose!!

She was so aggrieved!!!

"You can eat whatever you want, but you can't just say whatever you want. How did I bully you?"

Chu Feng immediately panicked when he heard that. He flipped her onto her back beneath him, pinched her tender cheek, and leaned down until their faces were almost touching.

"Tell me, when did I ever bully you?"

Chu Feng tilted his head and spoke coolly, his heavy breath continually washing over Wang Dong's face.

"You... y-you... I..."

Wang Dong was pinned to the bed, her face already flushed bright red.

A wave of intense heat kept striking her face and nose, while Chu Feng's unique scent continually assailed her senses. Her mind went blank in an instant, completely shutting down; she couldn't get a single word out.

Not only that, the intense stimulation even made her disguise technique start to fail. Her true appearance gradually showed through, leaving her looking ever more tender and alluring.

Chu Feng was also a little stunned by Wang Dong's sudden transformation.

If he could still hold himself back when she'd been in her male form as "Wang Dong," then her female form as "Wang Dong'er" had completely tugged at his heartstrings.

Her large, tearful pink-and-blue eyes flickered. Her delicate nose twitched slightly, and her flushed cheeks looked as though they'd release water with the gentlest squeeze. Her red, rounded ears trembled faintly. Who could possibly resist that?

Without another word, Chu Feng picked Wang Dong up and went in for the kill.

"Mmph..."

Wang Dong's eyes flew wide open, as if she couldn't believe it.

But the strange sensation in her mouth dragged her back to reality. Her entire body instantly went limp, and her hands instinctively dug into Chu Feng's waist, gripping very tightly.

A few minutes later.

Only then did Chu Feng finally pull away from Wang Dong.

"Think carefully. When did I ever bully you?" Chu Feng licked his lips and grinned wickedly.

"N-no... you didn't..." Wang Dong's little face was flushed, and her large eyes were brimming with tears. She turned her head slightly, not daring to meet Chu Feng's gaze. She had clearly been bullied badly.

But what made her most uneasy was that after Chu Feng had done something so outrageous to her, she didn't feel angry at all. Could it be...

Wang Dong's little heart thumped wildly, and she didn't dare think any further.

Just then, Chu Feng leaned in again, startling the life out of her.

"What are you doing? My mouth's gone numb..." Wang Dong shrank toward the corner of the bed and hurriedly covered her mouth, looking frightened.

"What could I be doing? That was my first kiss, and you took it, so you have to promise to take responsibility for me." Chu Feng stared straight at Wang Dong, his expression utterly serious.

Wang Dong:??!!!

"I-I have to take responsibility for you??"

"Y-you... I..."

Wang Dong nearly exploded with rage. She wanted to curse Chu Feng for being shameless, but the threat in his eyes made her swallow her words.

"Come on, repeat after me. I, Wang Dong, swear that for the rest of my life..."

"..."

"..."

In the end, under Chu Feng's coercion, Wang Dong swore to take responsibility for Chu Feng for the rest of her life. If she broke her vow, she'd be A for all eternity.

Wang Dong didn't know what A meant, but it was definitely a very evil curse.

"Now that you've returned to being a girl, you'll have one more task from now on: you'll have to keep me company at night~" Chu Feng said with a smile, holding Wang Dong in his arms.

"Pah! Dream on!"

Wang Dong turned her head away and refused outright.

Chu Feng was such a lecher. If she shared a bed with him, who knew what he'd do?

"I'll just hold you. I won't do anything wrong," Chu Feng coaxed her patiently.

"No!" Wang Dong's attitude was firm.

Aside from not being ready, she also knew there seemed to be a seal inside her body. If Chu Feng got carried away, he might trigger it—and even she had no idea what the consequences would be.

She could grit her teeth and agree to the other things, but sleeping together was definitely out of the question.

"All right, all right..." Seeing how firm Wang Dong was, Chu Feng didn't press her.

A Wang Dong forced to do it wouldn't be sweet or satisfying, so he'd let it go.

After dinner.

At the Freshman Playground, students wandered around in twos and threes, chatting as they took a leisurely stroll after their meal.

But one person stood out, completely at odds with everyone else.

A thin figure, weighed down by layers of heavy armor, ran lap after lap around the playground as if he never tired.

That person was Huo Yuhao.

It had been more than half a month since the freshmen had started school, yet his Soul Power had increased by only one level, reaching level twelve, and his progress was slowing more and more.

The Freshman Assessment was only two and a half months away. Forget reaching level twenty—he wasn't even sure he could make it to level fifteen.

"Why... why... I've been training so hard, so why is my progress still so slow..."

Huo Yuhao was beginning to doubt his whole life. He slept only two hours a day and trained more than twice as much as everyone else. Yet he could only watch as the others' Soul Power increased rapidly, while his own had nearly stopped growing. This was impossible to play...

And that was with the Mysterious Heaven Skill boosting him. Without it, he wasn't even sure he could've reached level twelve.

Teacher Zhou Yi had even taken him to the Soul Engineering Department before, thinking he had a talent for soul engineering. But he barely had time to cultivate his Martial Soul; how could he possibly start dabbling in Soul Tools too?

At that moment, the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm in his Sea of Consciousness couldn't stand it any longer and reminded him, "Oh, Huo Yuhao, just take a rest. Don't listen to that old witch's nonsense. There's no point in training yourself to death like this. Your meridians are blocked, so your cultivation speed is naturally slower than other people's. And your classmates are the top talents on the entire continent. Every one of them has an Innate Soul Power of at least level five. Even if you worked dozens of times harder than they did, you'd never catch up."

"No! Brother Sky Dream, don't slander Teacher Zhou. I believe in her training methods. I can clearly feel myself getting stronger!" Huo Yuhao remained stubborn, firmly believing in Zhou Yi's methods.

After all, it was Zhou Yi's training methods that had finally let him see how to cultivate the Mysterious Heaven Skill. That was what allowed him to feel himself making progress every day.
