After hearing this, Lin Yaochen raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and replied with a faint smile: "Long Yan came shortly after the game ended."

Meanwhile, on the other side, an angry Lin Ziyu hurried to the door. Seeing Long Si and Long Shen standing there, he couldn't help but feel uneasy. He hesitantly raised his hand and pointed towards the room, cautiously asking, "How is he...how is he feeling now?"

"Long Shen, let him in." Long Yan's calm voice came from the room.

Hearing this answer, Lin Ziyu was slightly relieved, but still a little nervous. He looked at Long Shen, hoping to get some comfort or hint from him. However, Long Shen just said lightly: "Master Ziyu, please come in."

Lin Ziyu snorted softly, thinking that this was his room after all, and there was nothing to be afraid of. He took a deep breath, trying to appear calm, and then strode into the room. After entering the room, he saw Long Yan sitting on the chair at a glance, and immediately a flattering smile appeared on his face. He whispered, "Brother Yan, when did you come?"

Long Yan glanced at him without saying a word, his eyes revealing a hint of displeasure, and he stared at Lin Ziyu coldly. Lin Ziyu's smile became a little unnatural, but he still walked closer to Long Yan, squatted down, looked into Long Yan's eyes and said, "Brother Yan, why don't you say anything?"

Long Yan raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and said in a somewhat unhappy tone: "Zi Yu, did you have a lot of fun today?" Then, he repeated the words that Lin Zi Yu shouted at the martial arts competition in a faint tone: "Lang Xiaoyi... Come on... I love you... Long Qi... You are the strongest... I love you..."

When Lin Ziyu heard this, his heart tightened, and he immediately understood what Long Yan meant. He knew Long Yan was jealous. So, he quickly smiled brightly and said loudly, "Brother Yan, of course you are the strongest! I like Brother Yan the most. Brother Yan, I love you!" After that, he hugged Long Yan tightly and kissed him on the cheek.

Long Yan was a little bewildered by Lin Ziyu's sudden action, but his expression softened considerably. He didn't push Lin Ziyu away, but instead reached out and gently stroked Lin Ziyu's hair, a hint of tenderness flashing in his eyes.

"Don't call others like that next time." Long Yan's voice was low and magnetic, as if it carried an irresistible charm.

Lin Ziyu nuzzled into Long Yan's arms like a kitten, "I know, Brother Yan, that's the only way I'll call you."

Long Yan smiled, cupped Lin Ziyu's neck, and leaned over to kiss him on the lips. Lin Ziyu was startled at first, then responded to Long Yan's passion. The kiss deepened, as if to convey their mutual love to each other.

After a long time, Long Yan let go of Lin Ziyu's lips, and looking at the little guy in front of him with a red face, his heart couldn't help but beat.

"Zi Yu..." Long Yan called softly.

"Hmm?" Lin Ziyu opened his eyes slightly and looked at Long Yan with a dazed look.

"I like you very much." Long Yan's voice was soft, but full of sincerity.

After hearing this, Lin Ziyu showed a happy smile on his face. He threw himself into Long Yan's arms again, enjoying the warmth.

Lin Ziyu raised his head and looked at Long Yan, with a firm light in his eyes, "Brother Yan, I like you too."

Long Yan raised his lips slightly and hugged Lin Ziyu tightly in his arms again. At this time, a drizzle of rain fell from the sky, as if God was blessing them.

Outside the room, Long Si felt a sigh of relief when he felt the pressure from Long Yan disappear. He turned to look at Long Shen beside him, a smile on his face, and said softly, "Brother Shen, His Highness's mood has improved. The pressure has disappeared. Master Ziyu is really amazing."

Upon hearing this, Long Shen frowned slightly and stared into the room. After a moment of silence, he slowly said, "I hope so... Long Si, always be vigilant." His voice was low and firm, revealing his respect and awe for Long Yan.

Long Si nodded gently, "I know, Brother Shen."

They all knew that Long Yan, as the Orc Crown Prince, possessed immense power and the inherent pressure of his race. Although the suffocating pressure had dissipated, no one could guarantee that Long Yan's emotions wouldn't fluctuate again.

The two stood there quietly, not daring to make any sound, for fear of disturbing Long Yan in the room.

In the Orc Imperial City, in a room housing human students for the Academy Martial Arts Competition, Qin Yaling, who had been unconscious for days, slowly opened her eyes and woke up. Hong Gu, who was guarding her, excitedly said, "Princess, you're finally awake. If you hadn't woken up, this old slave would have had to die to atone for your sin."

Qin Yaling stared blankly upwards with her eyes open, without any reaction.

Seeing that Qin Yaling did not respond, Hong Gu called out again: "Princess...Princess..."

However, Qin Yaling still did not react and continued to stare blankly upwards.

Hong Gu was extremely anxious and worried. Her voice became even louder as she continued to shout, "Princess... Princess... Don't scare me! Princess, please say something!"

At this time, Qin Yaling's eyes finally showed a slight change, but they still looked empty and lifeless.

Hong Gu realized that something was wrong, her heart tightened, and she quickly ran out.

He quickly came to the outside of Qin Jinghuai's yard and shouted, "Third Prince, the Third Princess is awake. I just called her, but she didn't respond. Third Prince, please go check on her."

In Qin Jinghuai's courtyard, Lu Siqi, Qin Jingyi, and Qin Yasi all reacted differently to Hong Gu's call. Qin Jinghuai and Lu Siqi exchanged glances, each one of them unsure. Qin Yasi's heart sank. She had personally concocted the medicine, so there wouldn't be any problems. Qin Jingyi stood up excitedly. "Third brother, eldest sister, I'm going to see my third sister first," he said, and ran off.

Qin Jinghuai, Qin Yasi and Lu Sixi also walked towards Qin Yaling's room.

When passing by Hong Gu, Qin Jinghuai said coldly: "Follow..."

After they entered the room, Qin Jinghuai and the others saw Qin Yaling lying lifelessly on the bed with a hollow look in her eyes. Their hearts ached. The once lively and optimistic girl had become like this.

Qin Jingyi walked to the bedside and softly called Qin Yaling's name, trying to wake her up. "Third sister, I'm the fifth brother! Third sister, wake up, I'm the fifth brother!"

However, Qin Yaling still did not react at all, as if she had lost her soul.

Qin Jinghuai, who was standing by, frowned and also stepped forward and shouted, "Third sister, I'm the third brother, wake up." Qin Yaling rolled her eyes when she heard Qin Jinghuai's voice, and had no other reaction.

Qin Jinghuai ordered coldly: "Come, go get the doctor."

Soon, the doctor rushed in. He carefully examined Qin Yaling's physical condition, then shook his head, indicating that there was nothing he could do.

Qin Jinghuai's face became increasingly gloomy. He clenched his fists tightly, his heart filled with anger and helplessness.

"What is going on? Why has Yaling become like this?" he demanded harshly.

The doctor replied tremblingly, "The Third Princess's pulse is extremely weak, as if she's been severely frightened, causing her soul to leave her body. With my abilities, I'm afraid it will be difficult to cure her... Moreover, there's not a trace of spiritual energy left in the Third Princess' body."

After hearing this, Qin Jingyi grabbed the doctor's collar in excitement. "What did you say? What about the soul leaving the body? Third sister's spiritual energy is gone. What's going on? She clearly still had spiritual energy yesterday. Tell me?"

"Qin Jingyi, let the doctor go." Qin Jinghuai said coldly. Then he turned and walked to the bedside, took Qin Yaling's hand, and probed her spiritual energy. He was shocked to find that Qin Yaling had no spiritual energy at all, and her soul aura was very weak.

Seeing Qin Jinghuai's surprised expression, Qin Yasi also reached out and took Qin Yaling's other hand, probing her psychic energy. There was no psychic response at all, and she said in surprise, "How is this possible?" Members of their royal family were born with first-level psychic energy.

Lu Siqi said, "Third Prince, I remember that the royal family has a secret method that can awaken people whose souls have left their bodies."

After hearing Lu Sixi's words, Qin Jinghuai calmed down after being shocked. He looked at Qin Jingyi and said, "Jingyi, you and Yaling are siblings of the same blood. You come and use the secret method to call back Yaling's soul, and we will protect you."
