Having the genes of a demon king, I never intended to be a kept man.

'Zhou Yuqing is still in the closet...'

Lan Mi's heart skipped a beat.

bad......

What happened that day?

Zhou Yuqing hid in the closet, looking suspicious.

What's all this about, so mysteriously?

But was Xiaoye really this shy and awkward in front of Lan Mi?

Is this still the same Xiaoye who seduced countless innocent girls?

She clearly verbally abuses even her own mother...

"..."

Ye Ge fell silent upon hearing Lan Mi's words.

Knew it......

Ye Ge lowered her head, placed her hands on the table, and gently fiddled with her fingers.

This is so embarrassing!

Lan Mi, as his teacher, is arguably one of the people he respects most in the world.

And she has always been incredibly kind to him.

And he actually did such a thing!

As I recall, Lan Mi was somehow injured by him...

Ye Ge took a deep breath.

Regardless of what has happened, he can't just pretend to be stupid and run away without doing anything!

A man must take responsibility!

"Sorry, teacher."

Ye Ge's expression turned solemn, and he said earnestly, "I will definitely take responsibility for you!"

Lan Mi: "......"

Zhou Yuqing: "???"

"Ah, well, what I mean is..." Ye Ge scratched his head like a little boy: "If you need me to, I definitely won't shirk my responsibilities... I didn't mean to that day, I don't know what came over me, and I was even so rough with you..."

Zhou Yuqing: "??????"

Lan Mi stared blankly at Ye Ge, and seeing his awkward appearance, she felt a warm feeling in her heart and was extremely happy.

Oh my, what an adorable little guy!

Normally, she would definitely have teased Ye Ge quite a bit.

But that's obviously not an option now, if Zhou Yuqing finds out...

"Cough cough..."

Lan Mi coughed lightly, thinking she needed to quickly change the subject: "Well... actually, the teacher isn't blaming you. You don't really need to say anything more. Let's talk about your cultivation..."

"Even if the teacher doesn't blame me, I can't forgive myself for what I did." Ye Ge said seriously, "What's done is done. I ruined the teacher's reputation. How can I just say nothing?"

Zhou Yuqing: "!!!!!!?!"

Zhou Yuqing covered her mouth in horror.

'Unforgivable behavior...'

'What's done is done...'

'Ruined the teacher's reputation...! ? ? '

Oh my god...

"..."

Lan Mi sighed and rubbed her forehead in frustration.

Even if you're going to say it, you can't say it now...

Lan Mi wanted to argue a bit more, but then she quickly changed her mind: "Actually... it doesn't really count as ruining my reputation. We were just practicing and sparring normally. Occasionally, I didn't hold back and only tore a few clothes or something. It doesn't really ruin my reputation~"

As she spoke, Lan Mi made a series of eye contact with Ye Ge.

She wouldn't dare communicate with him using telepathy...

At such close range, Zhou Yuqing was hiding in the closet. With Zhou Yuqing's mental strength, she would definitely have sensed it...

Night Song: "?"

Ye Ge looked suspicious.

Training and exchanging blows?

Hmm... it seems that we did indeed spar that day...

After all, Lan Mi became like that in order to help him break through the Apocalypse.

The two did indeed have a fight.

But "it only tore the clothes a little bit"?

There should only be a little bit of clothing left...

Seeing Ye Ge's remorseful expression, Lan Mi felt a little sorry for her and said, "Besides, the fact that you turned out that way that day was actually my doing."

Ye Ge was stunned for a moment: "Your work?"

"Hmm." Lan Mi nodded: "It was I who fed you the 'Original Demon Bead,' which caused your demonic nature to be unleashed. All the demonic cells in your body were mobilized, and your demonic desires far outweighed your rationality. So even if you only have a fleeting evil thought in your mind, it will be magnified infinitely in your heart."

Ye Ge recalled the scene from that time.

correct.

He remembered...

"So it was when you took the initiative to kiss me..."

Night Song said blankly.

He remembered that it was at that moment that a bead as hot as hellfire entered his body through his esophagus.

Then he went berserk, like he'd been drinking fake alcohol...

Even so, doesn't that mean that I've had those thoughts before, which is why I did those things?

Ye Ge was even more embarrassed.

Although it is said that a gentleman judges by actions, not intentions, however...

"..."

Lan Mi gasped, thinking to herself, "You kid, don't talk nonsense!"

She glanced cautiously in the direction of the wardrobe.

It was quiet over there by the wardrobe.

But why do I keep feeling a murderous aura emanating from it...?

“...You’re mistaken,” Lan Mi said. “You ate it yourself; I didn’t feed you.”

Ye Ge was taken aback: "Huh?"

Lan Mi winked at him.

"...?" Night Song: "Is...that's how it is?"

“Yes, that’s right.” Lan Mi nodded seriously: “Back then, I made you take the original demon orb yourself, and then you entered the demon form. Then we fought, and you accidentally injured me. The demonic flames burned off a corner of my clothes, so you felt very sorry and felt that you had offended me.”

Night Song: "..."

"Right, Little Night Song?" Lan Mi gave a friendly smile. "That's how it happened, isn't it?"

"..." Ye Ge didn't know why, but she always felt that there was a sense of coercion in the teacher's eyes...?

"Uh... I think that's how it is..." Ye Ge glanced at the wardrobe next to her.

It seems like I understand something, yet it also seems like I don't...

"Yes, yes, that's exactly what happened." Lan Mi said with a smile, "Oh dear~ you really are something, it's such a small thing, what's there to apologize for? You're a good child in every way, except you're prone to blaming yourself. The teacher didn't blame you at all~~"

Night Song: "..."

"Don't bring this up again, okay?" Lan Mi coaxed gently.

Night Song: "...Understood."

Lan Mi glanced at the wardrobe again out of the corner of her eye.

Hmm... the killing intent seems to have decreased...

"By the way, what brings you here today?" Lan Mi looked at Ye Ge with a smile on her face.

Finally getting down to business, Ye Ge took a deep breath: "It's about cultivation."

Lan Mi: "Have you encountered difficulties in your cultivation again?"

Night Song: "Yes."

“That shouldn’t be the case…” Lan Mi rested her finger on her chin: “You’ve only just broken through to the Heavenly Revelation Realm, and you should still be a long way from reaching the Holy Descent Realm. Logically speaking, with your extraordinary talent, you shouldn’t encounter any more obstacles, right?”

“It’s not an obstacle.” Ye Ge shook his head: “It’s just that my cultivation is a bit too slow right now.”

"Is that so?" Lan Mi nodded thoughtfully. "How much more do you feel you're lacking to break through?"

Ye Ge paused for a moment and thought for a moment: "I am currently at the third level of the Heavenly Revelation Realm. The energy bar for breaking through is about 30%. If I continue to cultivate like this, it will probably take more than ten days to break through."

Lan Mi: "?"

"You... you call this speed too slow?"
