Chapter 338

~7 min read 1,336 words

Because his Source Power was exhausted, Lingyun spent that day in Nangong Nayue's Villa. With Nangong Nayue there, even the Lion King Organization could not detect what had happened here.

After resting at Nangong Nayue's place for just one day, Lingyun went to work as usual. Then, Lingyun received a message saying that a third-year high school girl named Xian Guyong had taken sick leave, and for quite a long period at that.

Upon hearing this news, Lingyun only smiled; he knew that this person on leave was the head of the Three Sages of the Lion King Organization. However, Lingyun felt not a shred of guilt in his heart; after all, this was the other party's own doing.

"The matter of the Narakuvera is already over. Yuejiang, is there something you wanted to find me for?" Lingyun asked, looking at Nangong Nayue standing before him.

"The War King Domain has established an embassy on Itogami Island, and Vatler has become the Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary!" Nangong Nayue said.

"Oh? This guy has already appeared again?" Lingyun asked with interest.

Nangong Nayue said with a look of annoyance: "That's right. When that little girl, the Dancing Maiden from the Lion King Organization, went to the beach earlier, she picked up this half-dead bat. Who would have thought that after only a few days of Kung Fu, this guy would appear alive and kicking, and even cause such a huge mess for me!"

"Rest assured, I have confidence in the power of the Giant God Soldier. Even if this guy appears before us alive and kicking, he won't have the ability to stir up trouble in the short term," Lingyun said.

Watching Lingyun as he tidied up his things, Nangong Nayue said with some confusion: "Are you going out?"

"Yes, I don't have any more classes today, and I have a premonition that I will encounter some interesting things by going out this time!" Lingyun said.

"Interesting things? It's already chaotic enough here on Itogami Island; I truly don't hope for any interesting things to happen!" Nangong Nayue rolled her eyes in annoyance. "During this period, Demon Race members have been fighting in the skies above Itogami Island, causing quite a few accidents, which has already given me a headache."

"Demon Race members fighting in the skies above Itogami Island? I have a premonition that I might run into someone related to this matter this time!" Lingyun laughed once, then left the faculty office.

After leaving the faculty office, Lingyun wandered the streets alone. As he walked, Lingyun strolled into a dense forest, and not long after, he stopped in front of a dilapidated building.

"Is this place... a church?" Lingyun examined the structure, which looked as if it had been burned by fire.

Just as Lingyun was examining the place, the sound of a cat meowing came from inside the church.

"Is this... a cat? Because of years of disrepair, has this place become a gathering spot for stray cats?" Lingyun gave a soft exclamation of surprise, then walked into the church.

After entering the church, the first thing Lingyun saw was a girl wearing the Private Saikai Academy uniform. Seemingly having heard footsteps, the young girl turned her head to look in Lingyun's direction, allowing Lingyun to see her true appearance.

This young girl had long, silver hair like a snowy field—extremely rare on Itogami Island—and碧 eyes like the radiance of a glacier. Although it was a bit strange to wear a high-collared long-sleeved shirt under a short-sleeved uniform, a noble aura different from that of ordinary people emanated from her.

Lingyun even sensed an extremely pure aura on her body, as well as a trace of a high-dimensional aura hidden very deep that was incompatible with this world. More importantly, Lingyun sensed an aura of a fake that made him feel disgusted; hidden within this aura was a manic power that had the possibility of going out of control if one were not careful.

Surrounding the girl was a group of Koneko, and it appeared the girl was feeding them.

"Hello, Teacher Lingyun?" The girl stood up and bowed to Lingyun.

"You are..." Lingyun always felt this girl looked familiar, but for a moment, he really couldn't recall the other party's identity.

"I am a third-year student in the junior high division; my name is Yese Xiayin," the girl said very politely.

"So it's the Saintess of the junior high division," Lingyun said half-jokingly.

"Saintess or whatever, that is just everyone's kindness toward me." Hearing Lingyun mention this name, Yese Xiayin's face couldn't help but flush red.

"Looking at the way you, Student Yese, take care of the Koneko, calling you a Saintess isn't wrong at all!" Lingyun said, squatting down and reaching one hand toward the Koneko.

Seemingly attracted by the Source Power on Lingyun's body, the surrounding Koneko gathered around one after another, squatting in a circle beside Lingyun. Lingyun stretched out his hand and patted each of them on the head. Every Koneko that Lingyun touched on the head couldn't help but close its eyes, revealing a comfortable expression.

"It seems these Koneko really like you, Teacher!" Seeing this scene, a smile appeared on Yese Xiayin's face.

"Although there are many cats here, there is no strange odor; presumably, Student Yese comes here to clean often," Lingyun said, looking at the cats around him. "It must be very hard for you, Student Yese, to raise so many cats all by yourself!"

"Yes, these children are all abandoned; before they are adopted by others, they are temporarily fostered in this place!" Yese Xiayin squatted down again, skillfully preparing cat food for these Koneko.

"Adopting so many cats at once is impossible. I can help you look for others willing to adopt these Koneko; after all, as a teacher, I have relatively broad information channels in this regard," Lingyun said with a smile, looking at the Koneko acting spoiled around him.

"Teacher is truly a good person!" Yese Xiayin looked at these Koneko with some doting. "That's great. I've been a bit troubled lately, not knowing how long I can take care of these little ones, and I don't have much confidence. If Teacher helps, this matter will surely be resolved!"

Having been issued a "good person card" by a third-year junior high student, Lingyun only smiled: "Someone as kind and loving as Student Yese will surely have a wonderful future."

"A wonderful future?" Yese Xiayin murmured, her expression shrouded in gloom for an instant. "Then thank you very much, Teacher. Having said that much is enough..."

Although this trace of gloom disappeared very quickly, it was still captured by Lingyun. Recalling the trace of the fake's power hidden deep within Yese Xiayin, Lingyun seemed to have captured a fragment of memory. It was just that he was still missing one piece to put all the clues he had collected together.

The two of them took care of the cats here, and before they knew it, the sky had already darkened.

"Ah, Teacher, it's getting late; I have to go back!" Yese Xiayin stood up and said to Lingyun.

"That's true, it is getting late now; take care on your way," Lingyun looked at the sky and nodded.

"Wait, Student Yese!" Just as Yese Xiayin was about to walk out of the church gate, Lingyun suddenly spoke up.

"What is it, Teacher?" Yese Xiayin asked with some confusion.

With a flick of Lingyun's hand, a card appeared in his hand.

He handed the card in his hand to Yese Xiayin, and Yese Xiayin took the card; on the card was a phone number.

"This is my private phone number. If you, Student Yese, encounter any trouble you cannot solve yourself, you can call me directly. Remember, no matter what type of trouble it is, you can come to me for help!" Lingyun said.

Yese Xiayin looked at the smiling Lingyun, then looked at the card in her hand, after which she nodded forcefully.
