The Journey Home / Is It Too Much to Transform and Fight My Bro?
Oh right, it's that thing I got from fighting monsters last night. It seems like the Destiny Space just put it in there. I've forgotten what it looks like, but it was all black!
Let's take a look!

Hiss...
"What the hell is this thing?"
Ling Mengxue was shocked.
I initially thought it was some kind of equipment drop, but who knew it would be such disgusting stuff?
"It seems to still be stored in a separate inventory slot..."
Ling Mengxue shook her head, not thinking too much about it; those were things for later. But why did she still feel a bit uneasy?
Over the next few days, Mu Yan followed the course schedule provided by the school for practical learning. Occasionally, she would encounter courses from other schools, and everything seemed very peaceful and harmonious.
Students occasionally have free time to visit the city and enjoy themselves immensely. However, some residents have noticed that, for some unknown reason, the number of people wearing juvenile-style clothing has decreased recently.
Moreover, it is said that the martial arts gathering that was planned to be held also fell through.
Of course, Ling Mengxue didn't care about any of these things; all she knew was that she had tens of millions more in her bank account.
"Sigh, it feels like life has suddenly lost its meaning."
"The most painful thing in life is having no direction to strive for?"
Ling Mengxue was dragged along by Tang Ling and the other girls, playing wherever they went, and even using magic to jot down her homework—it was incredibly relaxing and fun.
"I long to buy osmanthus blossoms and share wine, but alas, my old friend, when will we meet again?"
"Hey! Xuexue, what are you still pretending to be, a wandering bard? Do you think you're the poet Li Bai?" On the last day of the journey back, Tang Ling saw Ling Mengxue in a daze and reached out to pinch her cheek.
Ling Mengxue slapped it away in annoyance, "Tang Ling, I'm the main character, how dare you tease me like this?"
"Puff!"
As soon as the words left her mouth, Liu Yinxuan and Lan Yuxin couldn't hold back, and Tang Ling was even more dumbfounded, conjuring up a Dragon Spring Sword.
"Sister, I'm the main character! My name is the most like a main character's, okay?!,,?^?,,"
"Oh right, you're a winner in life!" Ling Mengxue forced a smile and gave her a thumbs up.
Zhao Lei walked at the back of the group, recording the "awesome" events of this study tour. However, he felt it was too calm, lacking the excitement of the photos sent by Zhao Ping. Their "friendship with martial arts" activity was something that didn't even exist in Jiangzhou City!
"Not exciting at all!"
He cursed under his breath, but then turned to look at Shangguan Li and couldn't help but chuckle foolishly, "Hehehe... Brother Shangguan, what happened to your leg? Did you get caught sneaking into the women's bathhouse last night?"
"Get out!"
Shangguan Li cursed and nearly picked up the plaster cast to hit someone, "I don't want to talk to you, okay?!"
[img=700,698]http://Chapter 174 Departure and Return
Evening
Jiangzhou City Railway Station
Led by Mu Yan, after everyone took turns calling out their names, the school festival research meeting was finally coming to an end.
For most students, this might be a wonderful trip, but for top students, it's definitely a great opportunity to rack up credits.
With Liu Yinxuan's help, Ling Mengxue and the others naturally all got full marks. Of course, there were also those who didn't prepare any notes at all and were just coasting along. They were already at a disadvantage in the college entrance examination!
It's a perfect score of ten, why not take it?
Take Shangguan Li as an example. If he didn't have no negative credits, Mu Yan would have liked to mark him down. The school even paid for his medical expenses!
"Miss, please wait!"
As everyone was queuing to board the bus, a voice suddenly came, and a young girl in a light blue dress was seen rushing towards them, and with each step she could move seven or eight meters in mid-air!
At that moment, everyone couldn't help but think of two words: "Lightness skill?"
"Holy crap, who's this girl? She can even do kung fu? Are you sure this isn't a TV drama? Holy crap, you idiot!"
"Don't be silly, this place is a famous ancient city, maybe it's the current successor of an ancient martial arts family!"
"Damn it, have you guys been reading too many novels? Only ignorant people would believe in martial arts! I only believe in Magical Girls!"
"..."
Those already on the bus and some students still in line were discussing it animatedly, their eyes filled with awe, feeling as if their week-long study tour had been a complete waste.
This feels inexplicably like "I've been screwed over"—damn it, there's even a fairy with high martial arts skills?!
"It's Gene Lock!" Zhao Lei said with a face full of pride.
"Brother Zhao, are we Gene Lock?"
"Hehe, you wouldn't understand, would you? Let me explain slowly..."
Shangguan Li turned her head and glanced at Zhao Lei with surprise, seemingly astonished that even a high school student knew about Gene Lock these days.
"It's truly a case of sparrows eating pears and singing melodies, sparrows eating pears and singing me"
What surprised him even more was the girl in green. He thought he was already Peak Second Order martial artist and could be proud of himself, but he never expected that the girl, who looked to be about the same age as him, was actually stronger than him?
Do I have no dignity? I'm never showing off again!
"Huh? You're that assassin?"
Lan Yuxin frowned slightly, put one hand in front of the crowd, and recognized the person before Liu Yinxuan and Tang Ling could react.
The students around him were surprised to hear the word "assassin." Could it really be some kind of martial arts world, a place of chivalry and revenge?
"Yuxin, what's wrong? I didn't expect her to be so capable." Tang Ling pinched Lan Yuxin's fair cheek, her face full of curiosity, not knowing what had happened.
"I'll tell you about these things later. In short, she's not a good person. Last night, Xuexue and I were almost ruined by her!" Lan Yuxin said coldly.
"It's you, not us." Ling Mengxue lowered her head. She completely understood Lan Yuxin's feelings; after all, this girl had almost cost them their lives. How could they possibly have a good attitude?
That was a fatal blow, aimed straight at the heart.
Also, wasn't this girl taken away by the Ninth Bureau Inspectorate? How did she get back out?
"Is there something you need?" Ling Mengxue asked.
"Yes, I'm sorry, I came here today specifically to apologize to you."
Yao Qingyi looked down at Xiao Jian, her face flushed red to her ears. "Actually, what happened that night wasn't intentional. I never expected my martial uncle to be that kind of person... If I had discovered it sooner, I wouldn't have wronged you, and we almost hurt an innocent person..."
Lan Yuxin turned her face away and snorted softly. It would be a miracle if people could put aside their grudges and have a proper conversation when faced with something like this.
She almost died!
This isn't something that can be helped just because you're pretty!
"Please forgive me, I truly know I was wrong, I will slowly make it up to you..."
Yao Qingyi's eyes were red and swollen. The thought of what she had done before made her feel uneasy and panicked.
Her master taught her martial arts to punish evil and promote good, to uphold justice and fight crime. But in her case, she became an accomplice to evil and killing. What blinded her?
Ling Mengxue gave her a deep look, shook her head helplessly, and said, "For those who are willing to reform, judges will mostly make an exception and consider human feelings beyond the law."
Lan Yuxin:(,, oo,,)
Tang Ling: (? oωo?)
Liu Yinxuan: (*^▽^*)
Yao Qingyi:(;′??Д??`)
"That's fine then ^ω^." Ling Mengxue crossed her arms in front of her chest, raised her left hand, and a smile appeared on her face.
Finally, Lan Yuxin didn't say anything more and boarded the bus with everyone else.
The car slowly started moving, retracing its steps. Looking back through the car window, they could see Yao Qingyi being led away by a group of people in black uniforms.
Remembering what happened a few days ago, Liu Yinxuan began to ask, "Yuxin, did you run into her that night? I feel like you dislike her even more now."
"That's right." Lan Yuxin smiled, gritting her teeth, her tone clearly tinged with resentment, "That feeling is something that even the waters of the Three Rivers and Five Lakes couldn't wash away!"
Then she began to recount everything except for the secret of Ling Mengxue's identity, and Liu Yinxuan and Tang Ling finally understood.
So that's what happened!
After Yao Qingyi apologized, she naturally prepared to undergo prison reform. Considering the minor nature of her actions, which did not cause any major adverse consequences, she would probably need to reform for several months.
However, it's definitely not that simple; performing well is one thing!
"Excuse me, may I call my master first? I'd like to let her know I'm safe and that this trip went smoothly," Yao Qingyi asked timidly, completely lacking the spoiled air she had when she first arrived in Jiangzhou.
Or perhaps she was originally quite innocent and kind, just a bit childish, and then, after being deceived by her own martial uncle, she transformed into a fool... uh, a foolish child who was cheated but still helped the other party count the money?
"Go ahead and hit me. Agent Mu said that as long as you accept the reform, it's not impossible to get you transferred into the organization!"
"Don't worry, I will atone for my sins!"
"..."
On the bus, Mu Yan made an exception for him, since he still had to go to the school to hand over the task, so he naturally had to go with him. Before that, he gave the students another opportunity to revise their research reports.
This time, Zhao Lei was really keen on the idea. He immediately approached the top student, "Youyou, can I borrow your research report to copy?"
"Can..."
Before she could finish speaking, Mu Yan added, "By the way, any entries with identical scores will also be disqualified!"
Zhao Lei: "..."
He said it, but it also seems like he didn't!
Volume 3: A New Life / Dream School Festival (Complete~)
It felt a bit rushed and lacked detail.
[Img=500,700]htt Volume 4 Witch's Diary
In Chapter One, transforming and fighting your brother isn't too much to ask, right?
The matter has come to an end.
Ling Mengxue received a call from Zhao Ping as soon as she got home tonight.
She wondered, didn't the school festival just end? Why is she sending a congratulatory message so soon?
She only learned that the purpose of their conversation was to get together, after switching to Ling Feng's identity in the Illusory Realm.
She had originally wanted to decline to do housework, but Zhao Ping sounded agitated and seemed to be looking for trouble, so she agreed.
"Driver, first turn left for 50 meters, then turn right for 300 meters, then go straight through three traffic lights, then head east through four pedestrian crossings, then turn right at two intersections, and you'll arrive."
In the taxi, Ling Mengxue stared at the location Zhao Ping had sent her on her phone and gave instructions with a serious expression.
The driver's lips twitched, and he almost couldn't resist the urge to hit someone. "Young man, are you kidding me? Get to the point and give me something specific!"
"Oh, sorry, uncle, I was just... ptooey! I didn't mean to." Ling Mengxue pouted, inwardly cursing how absurd it was that she could say something so wrong.

"Cough cough... Go... Go to 'Peach Blossom Alley'!"
