Full-Time Magister: One System, One Forbidden Spell, the Strongest Divine Gift

Chapter 9 The Left Wing of the Sun God, Synonymous with Light
Chen Yuan chuckled, "That girl has been like this since she was little. She stares longingly at anything she sees that looks good. I don't say anything, and she doesn't ask."

He paused, then suddenly reached out and gently brushed the strands of hair from her lips with his fingertips. "Speaking of which, you two have quite similar personalities."

This sudden action made Mu Ningxue's breath catch in her throat.

Chen Yuan's fingertips were warm and dry, a stark contrast to hers, which were icy cold. She instinctively wanted to back away, but stopped abruptly after half a step. Her icy blue eyes narrowed slightly as she looked directly into Chen Yuan's eyes:
"How similar is it?"

Her voice remained cold, yet carried a hint of danger. A sudden chill ran through her, and a few sycamore leaves swirled around her, with faint ice crystals condensing in the air.

"They all like to follow me around and call me 'brother'."

These words were like a spell, instantly shattering Mu Ningxue's cold facade. Memories long buried by time suddenly came alive.
"."

Mu Ningxue froze on the spot, her ear tips turning crimson at a visible speed, and even her neck flushed a faint pink. She abruptly turned her face away, forgetting that her long, silvery-white hair couldn't hide her burning earlobes at all.

"What nonsense are you spouting!" Her voice held an unusual panic, her fingers unconsciously tightening around the hem of her skirt. A wisp of frost spread uncontrollably from her feet, freezing the surrounding fallen leaves into crystalline fragments.

A gentle breeze rustled the sycamore leaves, and Chen Yuan timely suppressed his smile, lightly changing the subject: "How are you adapting to life at the Imperial Capital Academy?"

His tone returned to its usual gentleness, as if the teasing from before had never happened.

Mu Ningxue took a deep breath, and the chill around her gradually dissipated, but a faint blush remained on the tips of her ears.

"Fortunately."

She responded softly, her fingertips unconsciously tracing the snowflake embroidery on her cuff, "It's just..." She paused, her icy blue eyes flickering slightly, "...that is, I'm missing someone to talk to."

For some reason, whenever I'm by Chen Yuan's side, I feel an unprecedented sense of security, whether it was when I was a child or now.

At the Imperial Capital Academy, she was a revered ice-type genius. Everyone feared her strength or her appearance and wanted to get close to her, but none of them were sincere.

Only Chen Yuan.

She felt completely at ease as long as she was by Chen Yuan's side. In front of Chen Yuan, she would unconsciously shed her heavy pretense and reveal her truest self.

“Yes, the Imperial Capital Academy is indeed not a good place. I heard that the principal there isn’t very good,” Chen Yuan said.

In the original text, Songhe didn't care about anything and just let things run wild. When they were in Jinlin Wasteland City, Songhe didn't care about anything and even revealed the location of the training location, which led to Mu Ningxue and the others being chased by Lu Nian. He just shrugged and did nothing.

Songhe: You wanted to come back after getting some experience? You've taken all the benefits.

"The Imperial Capital Academy is, after all, the top academy in the country. If the teachers there knew about your talent, they would definitely admit you through a special exception." Mu Ningxue steered the conversation away from the topic, since it wasn't appropriate to speak ill of others behind their backs.

"Mm." Chen Yuan nodded.

But in reality, the capital city is a very complex and chaotic place. Without some kind of background, you really can't get by. Unless you come from a prominent family, you're considered inferior.

If Chen Yuan had to choose, he would definitely not join the Imperial Capital Academy.

There's no other reason than that it would be a thankless task. Chen Yuan's focus has always been on cultivation. The capital city is a place rife with infighting. If Chen Yuan were to go there and see someone with such outstanding talent who is unyielding to both soft and hard tactics, he might be taken down in no time.

Moreover, he wasn't alone.

"Oh, right, this is for you." Chen Yuan suddenly remembered, so he took out a necklace from his pocket.

"A necklace?" Mu Ningxue didn't refuse; she would gladly accept anything given to her by Chen Yuan.

“You are exposed to the cold every day, and this necklace can slightly alleviate your condition,” Chen Yuan said. Chen Yuan also knew about the Ice Crystal Bow, and Mu Ningxue had not kept it from him.

To completely get rid of the chill, one option is to collect the remaining fragments, and the other is to find similar substitutes, such as the earth crystal fragments mentioned later in the original text.

Once the Ice Crystal Bow is fully repaired, the soul energy it releases will be enough to give Mu Ningxue's cultivation a leap in quality!

Unfortunately, given his level of cultivation, he couldn't help with either of those two things.

"Thank you," Mu Ningxue said softly, her voice unusually gentle.

Looking at Chen Yuan's profile, she felt a long-lost warmth welling up in her heart.

Over the years, apart from her father, only the person in front of her still remembers all her habits and preferences. He knows she doesn't like eating scallions, remembers that she is most afraid of being burned, and even knows that she always bites a straw when she is in a bad mood.

"There's no need for thanks between us." Chen Yuan's fingertips gently ran through her silver hair, the movement so practiced it seemed he had repeated it a thousand times.

His palms were warm and dry, with a reassuring strength.

Mu Ningxue subconsciously tilted her head slightly, like a cat being stroked, her icy blue eyes rippling in the shade of the trees.

"Let's go out for a walk."

"Ah."

Meanwhile, at the school, due to Chen Yuan's appearance, Mo Fan's performance was astonishing, but the two-year agreement from the original text was no longer valid. However, the fate of the Earthly Sacred Spring remained unchanged.
The Mu family sent one person, while the school sent Mo Fan.

Although Chen Yuan is very talented, he has awakened the light element and does not have any combat ability.

The hustle and bustle of the annual assessment has finally come to an end, and Tianlan Magic High School is once again welcoming a long-awaited holiday.

Chen Yuan stood on the station platform, watching the silver-haired girl board the train heading north. After accompanying her for several days, Mu Ningxue was about to return to the capital. Seeing this, Chen Yuan, unusually, came to see her off.

Mu Ningxue sat by the window, her icy blue eyes looking at him through the glass. Unconsciously, her fingertips drew a small snowflake pattern on the window frame, their childhood code.

He watched the train slowly start moving until the silver streak completely disappeared at the end of the tracks before turning and leaving.

Back in his house in the old town, Chen Yuan sat cross-legged on the bed.

The dazzling light elements surged and flowed like the tide, illuminating the entire space as if a divine kingdom had descended. If there were any onlookers present, they would probably freeze in their breath!

Behind Chen Yuan, a wing formed from pure light elements suddenly unfurled, its flowing golden radiance seemingly containing the temperature of the sun's core.

Although the wings of light are still in their infancy, with tiny particles of light constantly dissipating and recombining at their edges, the aura they exude is enough to make even high-level mages tremble!
Chen Yuan called it "the left wing of the sun god".
