Gu Yue Na's Appetite

The Library on the fourth floor was very quiet. At this hour, no one but Yun Ze had arrived yet.

The higher the Library floor, the more precious the books and, naturally, the fewer there were. The number of books on the fourth floor was likely less than one-tenth of that on the third.

However, in terms of value, the books on the fourth floor far surpassed those on the third, covering subjects of a much higher level.

Yun Ze had already looked around the fourth floor yesterday and gained a general understanding of its layout and book placements. He headed purposefully to the shelves containing mecha materials and briefly skimmed through the books there. In the end, he selected three books on the manufacture of Black Mechas. There were also books on Red Mecha manufacture on those shelves, but their contents were rather superficial and would not be of much help to him at present, so he did not choose them.

Using his identity card, Yun Ze entered a private Reading Room and began studying the materials there. Private Reading Rooms were for one person only, so he did not have to worry about being disturbed. He was still rather interested in this world's mechas and had mastered the basics over the past few years. The books on mecha knowledge had all been borrowed by Gu Yue Na from Sun Moon Royal Academy, covering white, yellow, and Purple Mechas. If he began making one now, producing a yellow mecha should not be a problem.

He had also mastered the theory behind Purple Mechas, but his cultivation limited him, preventing him from turning theory into reality for the time being. Having already mastered the theories of white, yellow, and Purple Mechas, what he needed to learn now was the theory of Black and Red Mechas. Once he learned the theory, he could begin making them when his cultivation improved. Through years of research, he had already come up with an excellent idea. Once realized, it would take this world's mecha technology to another level. He remained there until noon. Had Gu Yue Na not come looking for Yun Ze, he might have continued reading. Sun Moon Royal Academy had six cafeterias in total, with the Bright Moon Cafeteria being the best. Its food was prepared with high-grade ingredients, rich in nutrients and energy. Eating there not only filled one up better, but also strengthened the body and improved cultivation speed. Of course, good food also meant an extremely high price. Even a simple meal cost over a thousand Federal Currency. Such prices deterred many students. Those who generally ate at the Sun-Moon Cafeteria were either quite wealthy or exceptionally talented and entitled to free meals. The Sun-Moon Cafeteria was not large, but it was beautifully furnished like an upscale restaurant. Most tables seated four, and soundproof panels around the edges reduced dining noise. The moment Gu Yue Na entered the cafeteria, she drew many gazes. She was simply too beautiful not to attract attention. Gu Yue Na had long grown accustomed to such looks and ignored them, leading Yun Ze to the serving counter as though no one else existed. The two ordered seven dishes, all in the largest portions—enough to feed several adult Soul Masters. Yun Ze's appetite was manageable. Through cultivation, he could absorb sufficient energy from the environment to replenish his qi and blood, so he did not need much food as a supplement. Replenishing his qi and blood with energy was necessary. Otherwise, with the cultivation he once possessed and qi and blood so vast it defied imagination, if he relied on food to replenish it, he would probably have to devour hundreds of millions of living beings each time.

If he kept eating like that, before long, all living beings across the myriad worlds would be devoured.

Gu Yue Na could not yet absorb the energy of heaven and earth to replenish her qi and blood as Yun Ze did. To meet her body's needs, she had no choice but to eat large quantities of food, or she would feel weak all over. Of the seven dishes, six had been ordered for her. This was also her usual appetite. Anyone seeing Gu Yue Na eat for the first time would be stunned speechless. It was hard to imagine that such an impossibly beautiful woman could eat so much. Yun Ze knew about Gu Yue Na's appetite and was not surprised. He ate normally, occasionally exchanging a few words with her. When they were halfway through their meal, a tall, handsome young man approached their table with a smiling expression, carrying a tray of freshly served fine dishes. "Little brother, may big brother sit beside you?" the handsome young man asked Yun Ze with a smile, reaching out to pat his head. As he spoke, his gaze remained fixed on Gu Yue Na, his eyes filled with barely concealed admiration and desire. His build was comparable to that of an adult, but he was actually only a little over fourteen years old. He had simply developed well. "I don't like being called little brother. This is the first time you've said it, so I can forgive you. But if there is a second time, I'll get angry."

"My name is Yun Ze. You can just call me by my name."

Yun Ze caught the young man's outstretched hand with his left hand, stopping him from touching his head. Turning to look at him, he said calmly, "Also, you'd better not touch my head. Otherwise, you'll die."

He showed not the slightest killing intent. His expression was calm, as was his voice, yet those calm words sent a bone-deep chill through the tall young man. The tall young man's gaze abruptly shifted to Yun Ze, and he stared at him in shock. When their eyes met, fear rose in his heart, and he actually looked away in fright. Gu Yue Na looked coldly at the tall young man and said in an icy voice, "Long Chen, I've already warned you. If you dare keep pestering me, don't blame me for being rude."

"Did you really think I was just saying those things casually?" Gu Yue Na did not hide her killing intent. She truly wanted to kill Long Chen. This man had been pestering her under the guise of pursuing her, but did he really think she did not understand his true motives? First, he coveted her appearance. Second, her bloodline attracted him, and he wanted to raise his own bloodline by sleeping with her. She felt nothing but disgust toward someone like him. She had clearly rejected his advances many times, yet he never listened and continued to pester her. She had run out of patience.

Seeing that Gu Yue Na was truly angry, Long Chen hurriedly shook his head and explained, "Nana, don't misunderstand. I wasn't trying to pester you."

"I just thought little brother Yun Ze was cute and wanted to sit beside him. This is the first time I've ever seen such an adorable little brother."

"Don't be afraid, little brother. Big brother only wanted to pat your head because you're cute. Since you don't like it, then forget it."

Long Chen gave Yun Ze what he believed was a gentle smile. He did not force the issue and prepared to withdraw his hand. "Hm?" Long Chen frowned slightly. Yun Ze was gripping his hand tightly, and he could not move it. "Heh, little brother, you're quite strong, but you should still let go. If big brother really uses force, I might hurt you," Long Chen said with a smile. He truly regarded Yun Ze as a little child. His tone was like that of someone coaxing a child. He had long tossed aside that earlier feeling of palpitations and paid no attention to Yun Ze's warning. He kept calling him little brother so naturally now. He had noticed Gu Yue Na's attitude toward Yun Ze and guessed that Yun Ze might be her younger brother, so he wanted to build a good relationship with him in order to pursue Gu Yue Na. What a self-important fool. Yun Ze has lived who knows how much longer than even your grandfather, yet you're still calling him little brother. Aren't you courting death?

Gu Yue Na thought, looking at Long Chen as though he were an idiot. If you enjoy this book, please vote with monthly tickets and recommendation tickets, and add it to your favorites. Thank you, everyone.
