Chapter 124: Chapter 125: Hu Liena’s Protection
"Xia Long, you're quite bold, daring to provoke trouble in the classroom. Have you forgotten the academy's rules? If you want to fight, take it to the training grounds. If you dare cause trouble in the classroom and damage academy property, just wait for the teacher to come after you!"
Looking at Xia Long, a youth named Xie Yue said coldly.
"Senior Xie Yue, I was wrong. I won't dare again!"
In front of this Senior Xie Yue, the previously arrogant Xia Long was now as meek as a quail, looking completely timid and submissive.
"Hmph! Go back. Don't let me catch you causing trouble in the classroom again!"
After being reprimanded, Xia Long immediately slunk back to his seat, dejected.
"Senior Xie Yue, thank you for helping me."
Seeing Xie Yue drive Xia Long away, although Lin Ye wasn't afraid of Xia Long, he still thanked Senior Xie Yue for stepping in to help.
"You don't need to thank me!"
But in response to Lin Ye's gratitude, Xie Yue was quite cold.
"I only helped you for the sake of my sister. I don't know how you won the favor of His Holiness the Pope to become the Holy Son of our Spirit Hall, but I don't care whether you are the Holy Son or not."
"In the future, if you can win my sister's favor, I won't interfere with your relationship. But if my sister doesn't like you, then don't approach her. Even if the Holy Son and Holy Maiden must be together, you are not allowed to touch her. I won't allow anyone to make my sister sad. Even if you're the Holy Son, it's the same!"
As he spoke, Xie Yue's sharp gaze turned to Lin Ye, full of warning.
But in response to Xie Yue's warning, Lin Ye couldn't help but smile wryly in his heart.
"Senior Xie Yue, you might have misunderstood. Hu Liena and I were already very familiar before this. We've experienced many things together. The reason I came to Spirit City was because she brought me here."
"You're lying! Nana is so cold and aloof. How could you have the chance to be with Nana? Don't lie. The only reason Nana helped you is because of your identity as the Holy Son!"
As soon as Lin Ye finished speaking, before Xie Yue could respond, a robust youth with short red hair beside him immediately shouted angrily.
"Senior Xie Yue, who is this?"
Hearing the red-haired youth's angry shout, Lin Ye couldn't help but look at Xie Yue and ask hesitantly.
"This is someone who grew up with Nana and me… uh… a classmate. His name is Yan, and he can also be considered your senior."
Faced with the impulsive youth beside him, Xie Yue's cold face showed a slight trace of awkwardness.
Classmate? Why does it feel like a suitor?
Lin Ye couldn't help but feel suspicious.
While Lin Ye and Xie Yue were talking, outside the door, Hu Liena, who had already finished talking to the teacher about Lin Ye, had returned.
Before even reaching the classroom door, Hu Liena immediately heard a familiar angry shout.
"This voice is… Yan?!"
Recognizing the owner of the voice, Hu Liena's heart couldn't help but skip a beat. She quickened her pace, running toward the classroom.
When she reached the classroom, Lin Ye was talking to Xie Yue, while Yan was still gritting his teeth and pointing at Lin Ye. This made Hu Liena misunderstand, thinking that Yan was causing trouble for Lin Ye.
Because Yan had always been pestering her, Hu Liena wasn't particularly fond of him. Based on her impression of Yan's personality, it was entirely possible for him to cause trouble for Lin Ye, who was relatively close to her.
This made Hu Liena's eyebrows furrow, and her heart filled with some anger.
Although her Martial Soul was the Demon Fox, Hu Liena didn't like being like a vixen, flaunting her beauty.
Hu Liena was well aware of the admiration some people in the academy had for her. But if they admired her quietly, she wouldn't care. Why did they have to trouble Lin Ye?
Do you think that defeating Lin Ye will make me like you?!
Hu Liena felt very annoyed.
Of course, she didn't know that the male students in the academy were always targeting Lin Ye purely because of their jealousy. She was just the trigger for their actions.
"Yan! What are you doing!"
Walking to the classroom, Hu Liena immediately approached angrily, glaring at Yan.
"Nana, you're here?"
Seeing Hu Liena, Yan immediately showed a big smile and eagerly moved closer to her.
"Don't call me Nana! We're not that close!"
Hearing Yan call her "Nana," Hu Liena felt goosebumps rise all over her body and angrily snapped at him.
"Alright, Liena!"
Hearing Hu Liena's words, Yan quickly corrected himself. But this correction only made Hu Liena even angrier.
However, Hu Liena was already all too familiar with Yan's persistent personality. Ignoring him, she turned directly to Xie Yue.
"Brother, I can understand them causing trouble for Lin Ye, but why are you causing trouble for Lin Ye too?"
Looking at Xie Yue, Hu Liena was a little annoyed.
"Nana, I didn't. Don't misunderstand. Just now, someone was causing trouble for Lin Ye, and I helped him out."
Being misunderstood by his sister, Xie Yue felt a headache coming on and quickly explained.
"Hu Liena, Senior Xie Yue is right. Just now, he really did help me."
Beside them, Lin Ye vouched for Xie Yue.
Hearing Lin Ye's words, Xie Yue couldn't help but cast a grateful look at him.
"So that's how it is. Then thank you, brother!"
Hearing Lin Ye's explanation, Hu Liena nodded.
"Brother, Lin Ye is actually someone I met while on a mission assigned by the teacher. During that mission, he helped me a lot and even saved my life. I hope you won't look at Lin Ye with prejudice like the others."
Looking at Xie Yue, Hu Liena spoke very seriously.
"He saved your life?!"
Hearing Hu Liena's words, Xie Yue's expression immediately turned solemn.
If he had saved his sister's life, then this was undoubtedly the same as saving his own.
"You're called Lin Ye, right? Thank you for saving my sister. In the future, if you have any problems in the academy, just come to me. You saved my sister, so you're also my benefactor!"
Looking at Lin Ye, Xie Yue spoke solemnly.
"…Then thank you, Senior Xie Yue."
Seeing Xie Yue's completely different attitude after hearing he saved Hu Liena, Lin Ye couldn't help but feel a bit odd, but he still thanked him.
Meanwhile, seeing even his childhood friend Xie Yue "switch sides," Yan felt utterly heartbroken.
Why! Xie Yue, didn't you say that in the entire academy, only I, Yan, am worthy of Hu Liena? How could you forget me when you meet this guy?! Boohoo! Life is so hard!
Although heartbroken, Yan didn't give up. Instead, he thought firmly to himself:
Hmph! So what if he saved Hu Liena? If I, Yan, were with Hu Liena, I could also save her life! Just wait! I won't give up. The only one qualified to be with Hu Liena is the strongest among the younger generation of Spirit Hall.
