After swearing, he seemed to realize that his behavior was inappropriate. He immediately shrank back a little and picked the hentai manga up off the floor...
The classroom was far too quiet, with no one talking, so Wei Liang's grumbling immediately reached the ears of the sisters, Chen Bing and Chen Xue...
Lu Zhao pursed his lips, his gaze flickering, and said thoughtfully, "Bing, Xue... don't act just yet."
"Elder Lu! This is such a good opportunity. Don't let his bluff scare us out of it!" Jin Jiuyao said through gritted teeth.
Lu Zhao glanced at him and said gravely, "He's not bluffing, nor is he threatening us. He's warning us."
He paused, then explained, "That hentai manga... Intimate Demon-Hunting Witch in the Glimmer doesn't end with everyone getting wiped out at all."
The corner of Jin Jiuyao's mouth twitched violently. "Wait, Elder Lu, you read that stuff too...?"
Chen Bing and Chen Xue also turned to Lu Zhao with odd expressions.
Lu Zhao gave a dry cough. "I have a friend... who likes reading it too, so I know a little."
"Elder Lu, this friend of yours..."
"All right, that's not the point... let's move over there and pretend we never saw Xiao Zi." As he spoke, Lu Zhao led the other three around some of the shelves near Lin Yi and hid among the shelves elsewhere in the Bookshelf Area.
Before entering the Bookshelf Area, he gave Wei Liang an extremely wary look. But Wei Liang acted as though he had never seen them at all. He set Intimate Demon-Hunting Witch in the Glimmer aside, opened another hentai manga, and continued reading with relish.
Although Wei Liang had made quite a commotion, he had actually attracted very little attention.
Lin Yi remained immersed in that distorted layer.
