I've Loved My Teacher... for a Long Time, Too.

Bibi Dong seemed to have her soul instantly ripped out, standing there stunned, her delicate body trembling violently like a candle flickering in the wind.

An indescribable surge of fear, a mixture of immense shame, utter humiliation, and complete Detect, overwhelmed all her psychological defenses like a burst dam!

That secret, buried deep within her soul, gnawing at her day and night, the secret she considered the dirtiest and most shameful... Xiao Xia actually found out?

"I..."

Bibi Dong's unfocused pupils struggled to move, finally meeting Lin Xia's eyes, which burned with complex flames.

A surge of shame and anger erupted like lava, instantly burning her cheeks and the corners of her eyes red.

At the same time, a deeper and more malevolent purplish-black aura, like a lurking Ferocious Beast sensing the intense fluctuations in its host's soul, suddenly surged forth from the depths of her body!

Wisps Sisi eerie mist uncontrollably emanated from her pores, carrying a chilling and ominous aura that instantly caused the room temperature to plummet!

"Don't look at me! Xiao Xia! Don't look at me!"

Bibi Dong suddenly screamed, her voice so sharp it almost tore through the air, filled with intense terror and despair.

She struggled to break free from Lin Xia's grip on her shoulders, twisting her body and trying to bury her face.

"I'm dirty... I'm so dirty... I'm a disqualified teacher! I don't deserve it! I don't deserve to be your teacher! I don't deserve to..."

Tears of regret finally burst forth from her eyes, like beads from a broken string, rolling wildly down her pale and delicate cheeks.

"I'm so sorry to you and Xue'er! I'm a sinner! Just let me... just let me rot here alone! Please... let me go!"

Bibi Dong's voice was broken and choked with sobs; every word was filled with heart-wrenching helplessness and self-blame.

The surging Rakshasa Divine Power became even more violent, and the purplish-black mist almost enveloped her entire body. The powerful pressure, carrying an evil intent that eroded everything, frantically assaulted Lin Xia's body and mind!

We can't hesitate any longer!

Lin Xia could clearly feel the body in her arms being pulled and eroded by that terrifying evil thought, and Bibi Dong's will was teetering on the edge of the Abyss of pain!

Lin Xia knew that at this moment, any verbal persuasion would be pale and powerless; she had to use actions to Sheer Force stabilize her mind and interrupt her slide into a darker Abyss!

"Teacher! Look at me!"

Lin Xia almost roared, gripping Bibi Dong's shoulder tightly, giving her no room to back down or escape.

At the same time, without the slightest hesitation, he suddenly pulled his other arm in with irresistible force, and fiercely and tightly embraced Bibi Dong, who was struggling violently and whose body was exuding ominous Haze!

It was an embrace that almost seemed to meld her into his very bones! Domineering, resolute, and brimming with protectiveness!

"Well..."

Bibi Dong let out a painful groan. The moment Lin Xia Sheer Force pulled her into his arms, her body stiffened as if Thunder Shock! All her violent struggles stopped!

Lin Xia's fiery body temperature and the scent of her firm chest, penetrating the thin fabric, were imprinted domineeringly on her cold body.

That familiar yet chilling aura, mixed with the power of a young man and a tremor that made her soul tremble, was like a bright light piercing through the darkness, fiercely penetrating her cold consciousness that was being corrupted and Wrap the Rakshasa!

The surging, turbulent, purplish-black Rakshasa Evil Thought was about to completely devour her was suddenly stopped, as if it had been thrown into a pot of boiling oil with a boulder!

The raging momentum was abruptly halted for a moment by this sudden embrace, imbued with a pure will to protect!

A primal longing and dependence on this warmth, like a tender vine peeking out from the darkness, weakly yet tenaciously struggled out from the depths of Bibi Dong's despairing heart.

In that instant of stillness, her stiff body even showed a very subtle sign of softening, like prey frozen in Blizzard, instinctively wanting to approach the only source of fire.

However, this moment of calm was as fleeting as a flash in the pan!

In the blink of an eye, the Sheer Force suppressed Rakshasa Evil Thought, like an enraged venomous snake, retaliated with even more frenzy and brutality!

A deeper, thicker purplish-black mist erupted, like countless twisted tentacles, surging out from every corner of Bibi Dong's body and instantly enveloping Lin Xia as well!

A cold, filthy, resentful, and depraved aura frantically assaulted Lin Xia's protective soul Soul Power, attempting to penetrate his skin and erode his soul!

"Let go! Xiao Xia! Let go of me!"

Bibi Dong's voice suddenly rose, sharp and heartbreaking, filled with desperate sobs and intense resistance.

She writhed violently in Lin Xia with an extraordinary strength, as if her soul was Burn by an invisible flame.

"This power will corrupt you! It will destroy you! You will become like me! Filthy! Corrupted! Devoured by the evil thoughts of the gods! Go! Please! Let me rot here alone!"

Bibi Dong's tears, like scalding lava, soaked the front of Lin Xia's clothes.

The temperature was incredibly hot, as if it would burn a hole through the fabric.

Her hands no longer tried to break free, but instead clenched helplessly into the fabric of his shirt, her nails digging deep into his firm muscles through the fabric, like a drowning person grasping at the only piece of driftwood, yet knowing full well that this driftwood would drag her down into the Abyss as well.

This contradiction brought her excruciating pain, causing her entire body to spasm violently.

"Xiao Xia... be good... let go of the teacher..."

Her pleas turned into sobs, filled with utter despair and self-loathing.

"I don't deserve this from you... I'm a monster... a Curse monster..."

Lin Xia felt as if countless needles were piercing his heart at the same time, the pain making it almost impossible for him to breathe.

Lin Xia could clearly feel the pain of her teacher's soul being torn apart by two forces in her arms—on one side was the cold pull of the Rakshasa Evil Thought, trying to drag her into eternal darkness.

On one hand, there was the burning and torment brought about by the forbidden emotion that he had Sheer Force and that this embrace had Sheer Force awakened within her, an emotion that was like poison to her.

Every tear she shed, every tremor she made, seemed to be an accusation of his recklessness, or a silent cry for help.

Looking into those purple eyes, completely blurred by tears, filled only with boundless pain and self-destructive impulses, Lin Xia knew that words of explanation and comfort would seem so pale at this moment.

Only the most naked intentions, intentions that are more fervent and reckless than the evil thoughts of the Rakshasa, can possibly tear a crack in this cold and desperate darkness!

Lin Xia took a deep breath, as if squeezing out all the air from her chest and then filling it with a desperate, all-or-nothing resolve.

He held the trembling body tightly in his arms, ignoring the cold, evil thoughts that were frantically eroding him. He lowered his head, letting his gaze, like a burning star, pierce straight and unreservedly into the depths of Bibi Dong's pupils shrouded in despair!

"Teacher."

Lin Xia's voice deepened, yet carried an unprecedented stability and strength, each word clear and distinct, like a boulder crashing onto ice.

What are you running away from? What are you afraid of? Are you afraid of these feelings? Are you afraid they will destroy me?

Lin Xia paused slightly, feeling the body in his arms tense instantly at his blunt words, then spoke slowly and deliberately, like the heaviest vow, striking Bibi Dong's heartstrings on the verge of collapse:

"I'm not talking nonsense. I've admired you, teacher... for a long time."
