"What is she talking about?"

Sisters, sworn sisters...

Wait a second, which 'gan' is it?

Sworn sisters or pole sisters?

The knowledgeable Wu Youqing quickly grasped the meaning of Yu Ga Shenle's words and her expression changed slightly.

She then sighed helplessly and said:

"This Jing, really is..."

...(Pole sisters, referring to women who have used the same 'pole', and by 'pole'... it's exactly what you're thinking)

Xue Jing walked to the library entrance, just about to go up, but spotted a familiar figure walking out slowly with graceful steps.

"Huh? Lu Sang, what are you doing here?"

He asked, puzzled.

Since Yu Ga Shenle followed him back to Qingcheng, although he had refused to let her stay at his house, she still came over now and then to mooch meals and would also visit Hidden Dragon Dojo to spar with him.

They were in a state where they could meet from time to time.

Yu Ga Shenle also saw Xue Jing and was a bit surprised, but after hearing what he said, she pouted and said, "Oh Jing, you recognized the wrong person again. I'm Shenle, not Sir Otogirusu."

"Haven't you played enough with this persona? Enough already," Xue Jing said.

"I don't understand Chinese well, didn't get it," Yu Ga Shenle turned her head and said.

"You're here to read books? Qing University Library is not open to outsiders, how did you get in?" Xue Jing asked casually.

Yu Ga Shenle blinked: "Is that so? I just asked a student, and he brought me in."

She didn't climb over the fence with martial arts, but entered through normal means? Xue Jing was somewhat surprised.

But then again, though he personally wasn't very excited, Yu Ga Shenle being a top beauty, ordinary people couldn't resist her; just a word from her and they would fall under her charm. Convincing someone to kill might not work, but getting an outsider into the library, a minor but illegal thing, was definitely more than feasible. Stay connected with My Virtual Library Empire

"Alright, I've got some things to handle, you go have fun by yourself."

Xue Jing said and was about to jump over the turnstile... he didn't bring his student card.

"By the way, Xue Jun, I should be going back in a couple of days," Yu Ga Shenle said softly.

Xue Jing nodded at her: "Is that so, have a safe trip... By the way, what about your appearance?"

Yu Ga Shenle pulled out a ribbon from her bosom.

It was the 'Yi Chai'er Bian' stitched by Xue Jing with the Flawless Spear Technique.

The sewing marks originally on it had now disappeared, and it appeared to have been fully restored.

"Yi Chai'er Bian was repaired yesterday. I've already contacted the Far East via phone, Xue Jun need not worry," she said.

Xue Jing nodded: "That's good then."

"Xue Jun, if you had to choose, whom would you like more, Sir Otogirusu or me?"

Yu Ga Shenle suddenly asked.

"What kind of question is that, aren't both you?" Xue Jing said with a grimace.

"Nope, so which one would you choose?" Yu Ga Shenle smiled and asked.

Xue Jing felt they were both similar, but the Yu Ga Suzuka form had the Ascending Dragon Sword, which was extremely appealing, so Xue Jing said:

"I'd choose you."

Yu Ga Shenle's expression didn't change, she murmured softly: "Oh~ I see."

"However," Xue Jing suddenly said.

"Although I don't know what you're thinking, but..."

"The multiple-choice questions of this world don't always force you to choose just one option."

"if you're wondering whether you should maintain a male or female body or something weird like that, my advice is to take them all."

Saying this, Xue Jing added:

"Ah, I'm not saying you should become a futa (a person with a female appearance but with 'pole'), just that you should freely switch forms according to your own will."

Yu Ga Shenle tilted her head: "Ah? You don't mind?"

Xue Jing rolled his eyes: "Why should I mind."

Yu Ga Shenle chuckled meaninglessly twice and said, "Fine, I'll ask you this question again at some moment in the future."

"Goodbye, Xue Jun~"

Yu Ga Shenle waved her hand and walked toward the gate of Qing University.

Xue Jing watched her graceful retreating figure for a while, then turned around, crossed the turnstile, entered the library, and headed for the seventh floor.

...

Upon reaching the seventh floor, Xue Jing saw that figure sitting quietly on a wooden chair, and a sense of peaceful tranquility spread in his heart.

Today, Saint Youqing seemed odd, as she wasn't reading but was sliding something on her phone screen instead.

"BOSS."

Xue Jing walked up to her and greeted curiously,

"What are you looking at?"

Wu Youqing shifted her gaze from the phone, giving him a mysterious look,

"Reading news comments."

Xue Jing peeked and found it was a discussion page about him.

As the most recent, wildly popular U19 champion, his popularity was soaring, with numerous discussions about him online.

Wu Youqing's finger was paused on a comment from someone.

[Close to cinnabar, Jing and deer are sweet].

...it was about shipping him and Otogirusu.

Xue Jing made a strange face and coughed, "Why bother with such things, they're pointless, people online just say whatever."

Wu Youqing neither agreed nor disagreed, she pocketed her phone and said indifferently, "What do you want?"

Her tone was as usual, but for some reason, Xue Jing felt it was a bit colder than usual.

He scratched his head, his voice involuntarily softening a bit as he said, "You know, I just slaughtered a Parasitic Candle, and there are many things about it I don't understand, so I wanted to discuss it with you."

'You' came out.

Wu Youqing scoffed sarcastically, "It seems you only come to me at times like these."

Xue Jing: "Huh?"

This baby Buddha was acting like he had swallowed gunpowder, not very Buddha-like at all.

"Not at all, I'd stay here every day if I didn't fear bothering you," Xue Jing asserted righteously.

"Don't promise things you can't deliver; that flattery only works on ordinary women," Wu Youqing said flatly.

"Private Marseilles," Xue Jing bowed his head.

"Why are you speaking Japanese, planning to marry into the Far East or something!?" Wu Youqing glared at him.

Xue Jing looked innocently rebuked.

It was just... a playful joke.

"No, seriously, that's unjust... If I were to marry anyone, it'd be you," he quickly protested.

Wu Youqing's expression slightly paused, non-committally grunting, "Hmph, better be."

Hmm? Her mood seemed a bit better... Xue Jing keenly sensed a slight softening in Wu Youqing's unconscious tone.

"All right, hurry up, what do you want to ask?"

Youqing turned her head away, not looking at Xue Jing as she spoke.

Seeing her change the subject, Xue Jing smiled and went along, beginning to share his speculations.

He talked about why the strange creature, Parasitic Candle, would appear in this world and seemed to specifically target him, mentioning that his birthday coincidentally matched the day the Boundary Shock that brought the Parasitic Candle appeared.

"...BOSS, do you think, could there be an entity in the Otherworld coveting the power within me, preparing for over a decade, just to have the Parasitic Candle cross realms and target me today?"

Wu Youqing listened intently and slowly said,

"Your guess is very likely correct."

Xue Jing pondered, "Is that so."

"It's also time to enlighten you about some things."
