104 – Thunder Flame Dragon No. 7

A warm sun is suspended in the middle of the sky.

Swaying in the breeze, leaves reflecting bright sunlight make rhythmic rustling sounds,

The rhythmic rustling feels a little like the breathing of spring.

Bathed in the April sunlight, with her hands as a pillow, Xue Qilin is lying on the roof of the Snow-facing Abode and squinting her eyes lazily.

The two buns tied on either side of the head are soft and lush, the black ponytails connected to the buns are scattered on the tiles, and the exposed skin has the color of milk mixed with honey, looking like it will melt into the yellow sunlight at any time.

“April is really a great month to sleep in…”

Xue Qilin stretched her body lazily. After a while, her slender limbs slumped down.

Speaking of which, Xue Qilin used to have a friend named April, who was a girl. But everyday she would say that she is the most beautiful person in the world. The la.s.s thinks that there is something wrong with that person's head.

“The weather is so nice…”

This gentle, warm weather is really suitable for sleeping in, especially after lunch. Xue Qilin mused.

“…Meow.”

Suddenly, a cat call sounded.

Then something fell on the la.s.s's stomach, making Xue Qilin groan.

“White Dragon, I don't mind you climbing on me… but don't jump!”

Xue Qilin raised her head while complaining.

A curled up white, two-tailed kitty is lying comfortably on the la.s.s's stomach. Reportedly, cats sleep for most of the day. It probably wants to sleep in as well.

Seeing its appearance, Xue Qilin felt even more sleepy.

Well, sleepiness is contagious.

“I can't take it anymore, I really want to sleep…”

Lying limply on the roof, Xue Qilin placed a hand on her forehead to block the sunlight.

“Meow…”

The cat's call sounded again, as if to say “go ahead and sleep”.

“Can't sleep…”

Thinking of someone practicing spells down below, Xue Qilin couldn't help but shudder.

“When I get up, I will find the place burned.”

For some reason, Qi Qiqi is more diligent in practicing spells recently than when she first started, practicing whenever she has time. However, there is no way that her practice sessions won't go wrong. During this period, Qi Qiqi's spells accidentally destroyed countless things, ranging from small things like paper and brushes to large things like furniture and plants.

Compared to her, Shui Yuner is much more rea.s.suring. Of course, she uses water spells, making her less destructive than Qi Qiqi who uses fire.

However, even when putting this aside, Shui Yuner is still very outstanding, casting spells as if playing with water.

Not only does she use water spells effortlessly like they are an extension of herself, but she also has an amazing comprehension ability. If she comes across something she doesn't understand, she can understand and deal with it as long as Xue Qilin gives some pointers. In contrast, Qi Qiqi is like a child, asking questions left and right. After Xue Qilin explains things, she'll still look like she doesn't quite understand, causing the la.s.s to pull her hair in frustration and cry.

Having said that, Qi Qiqi is not an idiot. Most of what she doesn't understand are things that decisively differ from the martial arts theory. After all, she learned martial arts from an early age, and has internalized the martial arts theory. Therefore, when trying to comprehend a completely different concept, she is inclined to unconsciously explain and clarify the new concept with the “martial arts theory”. She finds it hard to detour from the familiar path.

To put it bluntly, it is due to cultural differences. The consciousness of Xue Qilin who is indulging in her thought is growing fuzzy.

“No… I'm going to fall asleep…”

The voice also became fuzzy.

Given a bit more time, she will definitely fall asleep.

“Forget it, let's sleep…”

Just as Xue Qilin was about to give in to the Sandman…
