Chen Zui: ...I understand even less now.jpg.

"Forget it. You just need to know that 'scheming' is a compliment." Teacher Bian's attempt at teaching had gotten off to a bad start, and he immediately washed his hands of it. "Come to think of it, wasn't that Evil Cultivator's Sorrow Drum supposed to be incredibly powerful? Why didn't I feel anything at all? Did it fail to work?"

Senior Sister Xia Ying said she had a way to deal with it. Could it have simply failed?

"It worked."

"What?"

Wen Xu spread his hands. "It took effect. I felt it."

"Then how could you still..."

Wen Xu smiled. He couldn't exactly tell his friends outright that he had too many past memories he did not wish to revisit. And because there were too many, even if he wanted to avoid them, there was nowhere to hide. The instant the Sorrow Drum "hit" him, he had realized it.

Besides, not wanting to remember did not mean he was still drowning in the past. If he kept wallowing in self-pity, wouldn't he remain rooted to the spot forever? He did not have that much time to grieve over the changing seasons.

No one stayed in the past. He only needed to keep moving forward.

"My master is here. Did you forget?"

Bian Chunchou felt that something was off, yet also that nothing was off. "Oh, right. You came with a cheat code built in. I'm jealous!" After all, who wouldn't want a dragon cheat code?

It wasn't illegal to entertain such outrageously disrespectful thoughts, was it?

Just as Bian Chunchou's imagination was running wild, he received a Communication Talisman from Senior Sister Xia Ying.

The moment he read it, he jumped up in delight. "Wow, it hatched! It gave birth, it gave birth!"
