Chapter 320 - Korras Innocent (1/2)

Huyan Lanrou awakened a plant-type martial spirit— Snow Sakura. Her martial spirit looked like a robust Sakura tree with streaks of ice on the trunk. Unlike other plant-based spirits, however, the Snow Sakura gave Huyan Lanrou an innate ability to cast minor illusion and hypnotize her targets. Well... her spirit gave her a chance to hypnotize all the targets. The chances of success depended on the target itself.

”Hey, are you listening?”

A green-haired girl sitting in front of Huyan Lanrou frowned. It was already a break for their class and they had arrived in the cafeteria to snack their free time away.

”Huh? Yea, sorry.”

”Huuun? You've been acting like this since this morning. Don't tell me something really happened between you and Teacher Nik?”

The girl eyed Huyan Lanrou cautiously. The kids might still be resistant to Nik's charm but in a few year's difference, he would definitely become the prince charming for the entire school. The thought of Lanrou getting invited by the hottest teacher recruited by the Institute made many burn in envy. Lanrou's cheeks blushed as she recalled the illusion she fell into when trying to successfully pull Nik under her own focus.

She was ravaged.

Thoroughly at that!

She could still feel the touch of his thumb on her cheek as the faceless, yet a familiar hunk tenderly rubbed... her bits. Her hands did not leave any spot untouched as her lips remained locked with the Hunk's the entire time. Under the table, Lanrou clenched her thighs shut as she felt a familiar sense of moistness. With flushed skin, Huyan Lanrou stammered uncharacteristically, ”N-nothing happened!”

The green-haired girl remained dubious until Lanrou matched the girl's gaze from the corner of her eyes and spoke with barely-veiled bashfulness, ”Enough about him... Teacher Nik was just training us. What about you and Chu Ping? Weren't you h-holding hands near the Snow stream?”

This time, it was the green-haired girl's to turn bashful as she lowered her head, ”A-about that... we... we are... -ing...”

Lanrou frowned and spoke up, ”What? I couldn't hear what you said.”

”I said,” The green-haired girl pushed her index's against each other, ”We are marrying...”

The girl spoke with a heavy blush as she pulled a locket hidden beneath the neck of her qipao. Instantly, Huyan Lanrou's lips parted in an 'o' shape as her eyes bulged with shock.

”Don't you have... a poison spirit... wouldn't Chu Ping have to... take an antidote every single day?”

The girl felt even more embarrassed, ”Actually... Chu Ping's mother caught us... and one thing led to another...”

The girl smiled happily. She was practically aglow!

”Yeah, Teacher Nik and I kissed, too!”

Lanrou turned her head and snorted. The did kiss... sort of.

”Haaaa?!”

Now, it was her friend's turn to open her mouth wide, ”K-k-k-kissed?!!”

She yelled as Lanrou instantly leaned forward in fright and covered her dumb friend's mouth.

”Shhhh!”

Lanrou hissed and only after her friend calmed down did she settle down. She carefully eyes her friend and finally realized her own stupidity to admit such a thing out of envy for her friend's happiness... she should have known better than marrying is only a short-term source of happiness. Didn't her father and mother fight all the time?

How could she feel envious of such stupidity! Lanrou cursed herself as the girl in front of her took Lanrou's hand and spoke seriously, ”Lanrou... I won't tell about this to anyone. I swear on my mother's name.”

Lanrou pursed her lips. Her friend's mother was already dead and if Lanrou truly understood her friend, her father would be outraged by tomorrow evening and would be looking out to drink Nik's blood through his decapitated head.

'Sorry... teacher... shouldn't have done that to me...'

Lanrou shrugged. It wouldn't be the first time that someone was going to get killed due to the femme fatale her existence was.

”Lanrou, now that I think of it, isn't Shen Xiu extremely close to Teacher Nik? You have to be careful!”

The girl spoke with worry as Lanrou frowned. She would have gone this morning if it wasn't for Nik's sudden reversal yesterday. She felt shameful even getting close to Nik so that is why she skipped the practical class.

”So? Did you kiss him in front of others or alone?”

Lanrou thought for a moment. Letting someone get killed while knowing that he wasn't even at fault did not sit right with her. Nobody forced her to put Nik in her illusion, right?

”Of course, alone.”

Lanrou smiled playfully. She finally found a way to get back at Nik due to his retaliation to her own action.

It was big brain time.

As the classes came to an end, Lanrou hung out with a couple of friends until it was her appointment with Nik for her to get trained. She made her way towards the training field utilized by teachers and came face-to-face with a gloomy Shen Xiu and a lively commoner practicing... oh, wait, was her name Korrna?

Lanrou hummed in amusement as she was able to remember the name of a commoner. To emphasize the face, she smiled widely and waved her hands towards Korra, ”Hey, Korrna, where is the teacher?”

With a frown, Korra kicked sideways and huffed out, ”It's Korra and teach is with Xiao Ning'er in his room. She has some injuries that teach is attending to.”

Huyan Lanrou frowned at the information as her heart-chilled up and she ducked, letting a sharp kick pass through her head.

It was Shen Xiu. Once again, she was back to wearing a purple, deep-necked qipao that exposed much of her flesh while also keeping her grace and making her look more erotic.

”Please don't get in the way. You can get hurt.”

A smile had finally touched Shen Xiu as she looked down on the crouched Lanrou with a condescending gaze.

”You!”

A fight erupted...

Unfortunately, Korra joined in for the fun.
