Chapter 9: Bewitchment

……

School is over.

Because of his actions in class today, Lv Cheng was kept behind alone.

Under the fiery gazes of a crowd of male students, Lv Cheng walked into Tang Yue's office.

"Can you explain?" Tang Yue rested her chin on her hand, looking at Lv Cheng with curiosity.

She didn't think Lv Cheng had hugged her in class just to take advantage of her; at the time, Lv Cheng's hands were very well-behaved, not touching places they shouldn't, and besides, in that posture, she was completely unable to exert force to break free.

In fact, if Lv Cheng had other intentions at the time, he could have completely dislocated her joints in an instant!

Making her completely lose the ability to resist!

An expert!

And, the most bizarre point was that her Magic Energy had been sucked away at that time!

A strange power interfered with her Star Nebula, leaving the star seeds in complete chaos, which resulted in her being unable to cast Magic at all!

"Do you believe in love at first sight?" Lv Cheng asked.

"Of course." Tang Yue nodded.

"I don't... you believe it?" Lv Cheng was stunned.

"You believe this kind of nonsense?"

"Of course." Tang Yue looked at Lv Cheng with a smile.

"I believe whatever you say, so, can you explain to me why you hugged me for nearly ten minutes today?"

Maintaining that awkward posture, for ten minutes!

To say this kid has no issues, even a ghost wouldn't believe it!

"Can I not say?" Lv Cheng asked.

"Do you know that your behavior today can already be classified as harassment?" Tang Yue narrowed her eyes slightly.

"If I make a big deal out of this, you might be expelled, or even..."

"……"

"Are you threatening me?"

Lv Cheng's figure flickered, and he instantly appeared in front of Tang Yue. Cold red light erupted in his eyes, and his voice changed into another low, hoarse Demon voice.

A Warrior-level Demon?!

Feeling this terrifying sense of oppression, Tang Yue was startled, but before she could make any extra movements, Lv Cheng grabbed her throat and lifted her up.

Her star seeds were forcibly interfered with, making it impossible to activate Magic!

"You are nothing but a lowly human! You only deserve to crawl at my feet!"

"Wait a minute!"

Lv Cheng's voice rang out, the red light in his eyes extinguished, and the right hand gripping Tang Yue loosened.

"Why are you grabbing her?"

"This bug dared to threaten me!"

"She is threatening me, what the hell does that have to do with you?"

"……"

Watching Lv Cheng play two roles at once, Tang Yue had an ominous premonition.

Could this child have accidentally summoned some kind of Undead onto himself while performing a Dimensional Summoning?

Although the probability of this is almost zero, the uncertainty of Dimensional Magic is very high!

Such a thing is not impossible!

……

After a long while, Lv Cheng's ventriloquist act finally ended.

"Are you... willing to explain?" Tang Yue's tone became incomparably gentle.

She could be certain that the other soul inside Lv Cheng's body just now was extremely dangerous!

It wasn't even a question of whether she could win; her star seeds were forcibly scattered, and she couldn't even activate Magic!

She must not provoke the Undead on Lv Cheng!

"I performed a Dimensional Summoning earlier, and then... I summoned him over." Lv Cheng helped Tang Yue up from the ground.

"So, was it him during class today too?" Tang Yue asked.

Just now, Lv Cheng erupted with an extremely terrifying Fire Energy!

And, her Fire Element Nebula energy was sucked away again!

Just like during class!

"No, that was me," Lv Cheng said.

The corner of Tang Yue's eye twitched, and she didn't quite react, "Why?"

"Because, love at first sight," Lv Cheng said earnestly.

"……"

With their eyes locked at a distance of less than ten centimeters, Tang Yue saw a sincere affection in Lv Cheng's eyes!

Is this kid serious?!

"You..." Tang Yue was at a loss for a moment.

Although she didn't mind a relationship with a younger man, how long had they known each other? She didn't understand this child at all.

However, if she refused, that Undead on Lv Cheng...

"……"

"Student Lv Cheng, please calm down about this matter first," Tang Yue Pacified.

"You must have been affected by this Undead on your body..."

Lv Cheng gave a bleak smile and let go of Tang Yue.

"That's true, for someone like me, who would be willing to accept me..."

As he spoke, Lv Cheng turned around in disappointment and walked toward the office door.

Seeing this, Tang Yue felt an inexplicable tug at her heart.

She had previously learned about this only Summoning Element student at Tianlan Magic High School; his parents had gone missing when he was very young. This was the explanation given by the Military, but for more than ten years now, there had been no news at all, and in all likelihood, they were already dead.

A child who had lost his parents from a young age, and now he was being entangled by such a dangerous Undead...

"Student Lv Cheng!" Tang Yue took a deep breath, stepped forward, and grabbed Lv Cheng.

"I am very sorry, I am still your teacher right now and cannot agree to this matter, but if you truly have this intention, after you graduate from high school, I... we can try dating!"

"Graduate from high school?" Lv Cheng gave a bitter laugh.

"Teacher Tang Yue, you don't need to use such excuses to comfort me. I know my own situation; whether I can even live until that time is another matter..."

"Sorry, I've disturbed you."

Saying this, Lv Cheng pulled his hand away from Tang Yue and turned around bleakly.

Seeing Lv Cheng looking so sad, Tang Yue felt as if her heart had been struck, "Wait a moment!"

"I... I agree to you!"

How could she have this kind of feeling? Could it really be love at first sight?

"You don't have to force yourself," Lv Cheng sighed softly and walked toward the office door.

"I also don't need your pity."

As the words fell, Lv Cheng opened the office door and saw several black shadows hiding in the grass in the distance, peeking and poking their heads out, seemingly preparing to ambush him.

Damn it! They really intended to mess with him?

A bunch of simps!

Did you really think that without me, Tang Yue would be able to fancy you losers?

"Lv Cheng!"

Just as Lv Cheng was preparing to go out and teach this bunch of brats a lesson, letting them know who the boss of Bo City was, Tang Yue suddenly pulled him back from behind.

Their eyes met.

Tang Yue took a deep breath, opened her arms, and hugged Lv Cheng.

"Sorry, I can't deceive you. At least for now, I don't have those kinds of feelings for you, but you can treat me as an older sister. If you still like me in two years, then... I am willing!"

"..."

Shendu, who was floating to the side having watched the whole process, fell into a state of bewilderment once again.

How could this kid be an Immortal God Descendant?

This farce just now was something Lv Cheng had asked him to cooperate in performing, saying that this woman had a special status and could help him a lot, so he needed to trick her.

One playing the good cop, one playing the bad cop; this method had always worked on humans.

Under the threat of him, a Demon, this woman would subconsciously lean toward Lv Cheng, and then, this kid's emotions—even he, a Demon, found it hard to distinguish!

A Demon's Demon Qi would affect human thoughts, making people become impulsive, especially his fire!

Although Lv Cheng still couldn't truly control his Fire Demon Qi, it was still very simple to use a basic output to disturb a human's emotions and make them become impulsive.

This woman's thoughts were stimulated by the Demon Qi and were in an unstable state, and having been guided by a strange infectious energy emitted by Lv Cheng, she had already fallen into the trap!

An exploitation of a weakness!

You kid shouldn't be some Immortal God Descendant; you should be a Demon!

"Respected teacher, are you talking bad about me?" Lv Cheng said eerily.

"Didn't you say you were 'Cheng' for honesty, 'Cheng' for sincerity?" Shendu was somewhat speechless.

"Right now, you are deceiving this woman's feelings."

For an ordinary human to do such a thing, he would think it was normal, but this kid was an Immortal God Descendant!

Even if he wasn't pure, he couldn't be this twisted, right?

"How can matters of the heart be called deception?" Lv Cheng retorted.

"Besides, I was sincere just now!"

"Sincere? Are you sure?" Shendu no longer regarded Lv Cheng as some upright and righteous Immortal God Descendant.

This kid was even more devious than he, a Demon, when he got devious!

"..."
