Chapter 400 (1/2)

You Can Fly? (1)

There was a lift powered by alchemy in the middle of the library. This lift could move in any direction, reaching any book you wanted.

Ye Lang didn’t need anyone to teach him how to use this lift, he’d figured it out very quickly. This was also something Xuan Yuanbing expected so she didn’t try.

“We should go get some rest. Let’s come back tomorrow…”

It was late at night. Time slipped by as Ye Lang sat reading within the library.

Xuan Yuanbing was unwilling to fall asleep, she had been asleep for too long. She didn’t want to fall asleep with Ye Lang next to her either. However, she had to take his health into consideration and he should not stay up all night.

“Oh, it’s late. I’ll continue tomorrow. We’re not in a hurry anyway.” Ye Lang snapped his book shut then put it into his space ring. He wanted to bring the book to the competition, to read while he watched the battles.

After a thought, he shoved a pile of to-read books into his ring too.

Anyone could take whatever book they wanted here, there were no limits because the people who were allowed in would never keep the books for themselves.

Ye Lang too. Even if it wasn’t Xuan Yuanbing with him, the people here wouldn’t stop him because they knew Ye Lang would never keep books for himself. With his personality, him forgetting to return the books would be more likely.

…

“My Lady, should we arrange for a separate room for him…” said the female Light Rider when she saw Xuan Yuanbing drag him into the Sacred Lady’s quarters while he was still reading a book.

“No, that’s too much trouble. It’s not like we haven’t slept together, right?” she waved, asking Ye Lang.

“Mm…” he nodded with no comment.

“...”

Looks like I’ll have to keep this a secret. I can’t stop the gentleman and my lady, thought the Light Rider.

…

On the second day, Ye Lang was staring at his opponent in surprise. He was surprised to see them today, more surprised than when he saw yesterday’s opponents.

“Second Sister, Mia, what are you both doing here?” he asked in surprised when he saw them, “to support me?”

He planned to sit and read in a corner but hesitated when he saw Second Sister and Mia.

“Didn’t you see? We’re competing. We’re your opponents for the day,” said Second Sister with a chuckle.

“...Great weather today. You both proceed, I’ll be reading.” Ye Lang started walking towards the side after a moment of stunned silence.

“Little Brother, you’re not going to fight?” Second Sister asked immediately.

“No, you all have your fun. Also, I won’t cheer for you,” Ye Lang had already taken himself out of the fight. It would not be appropriate to cheer for either side, although everyone, including Second Sister, knew his heart was with Ye Lanyu.

“Then just sit and watch. Don’t eat though, or I will feel like punching you…” Second Sister didn’t force him but had a tiny request because she couldn’t stand him eating as if he was watching a movie.

She didn’t mind when he did that with other fights- just not her own.
