Chapter 46: Her Decision After Resurrecting

Half a month later, Doomsday City.

As the most luxurious and massive city within the Fengling Continent, nothing could surpass Doomsday City. It was a major economic city connecting the northern empires, including the Northern Beastman Empire and the Eastern Fengyun Empire. This city was the pillar of the Holy Spirit Magic School. It could be said that the school’s base operations occurred in this city.

December was the enrollment month of the Holy Spirit Magic School.

Standing in front of the city gate, Long Shiyan looked at the tall wall and sighed regretfully as there was an inexhaustible feeling in her heart. Seven years ago, she came to Doomsday City, and she did not expect that even after seven years, she would not change at all. Moreover, her goals were still the same.

Beyond the city gates, several people were waiting in a long line, donning all kinds of magical beast hides as clothing.

Long Shiyan’s current attire included a fox fur coat wrapping around her little body. Her long, ink-like hair reached toward her waist, and a pair of twitching furry cat ears settled on her head. On her back was a long sword. No matter how anyone looked at her, her appearance was ridiculous.

However, her pupils shone as she watched her peers. Her face displayed a tinge of bitter sadness.

After the resurrection, her mentality changed a lot. Gradually, she planned to carefully design her future plans. Why would she exhaust herself to death?

Why would anyone go and wear themselves out, only to die in the end?

Wasn’t it fine to simply live a good life?

Human lives were controlled by the heavens. When it ended, it ended. Why was she still struggling to live? In the end, she gave up her own life once already.

Of course, after being reborn, she still couldn’t stop moving. She could only continue to follow the plan, but how could this not be sad? She was like a chess piece being controlled by greater being in their game of chess.

When the guard saw Long Shiyan, who was alone, she frowned and asked, “Where are your parents?”

Long Shiyan raised her head and looked at the familiar woman. She simply said, “Beast cat race. Age 16. This is the entrance fee.” She put a silver coin into the guard’s palm and entered the city.

Long Shiyan who re-entered the city could not help but feel nostalgic.

A familiar city was reflected in her eyes. The crowded streets, the luxuriously decorated hotels, the beautiful fountains for sightseeing, and the towering quaint bell towers. Long Shiyan used to accompany Zi Linglong around the area from time to time. Of course, they were also doing their part-time jobs.

For part-time jobs, one could be a guard. They could keep the city’s public security, guide people, or introduce places worthy of sightseeing, and so on. Of course, the people in the Holy Spirit Magic School could also be a waiter, street artist, or even a beauty apprentice. Whatever one could think of, one could do it.

If a student took on a part-time job, then the school would consider it as a kind of training, especially during the two months before school started. Therefore, when Long Shiyan walked along the way, she noticed several familiar students working.

In the hotel, a luxurious magic crystal lamp illuminated the hall. The floor was sleek and shiny to the point it reflected things like a mirror. A beautiful and elegant girl stood at the front desk. This place wasn’t any worse than the hotels in modern society.

“Hello, please give me one high-class room.”

As soon as she entered the room, Long Shiyan took a shower, laid down on her bed, and closed her eyes.

At this moment, an illusory fairy suddenly appeared next to her. It was the system. She worriedly asked, “Are you okay? You just lost the power of darkness, yet you decided to go defeat some bandits. Are you hurt?”

“I’m fine.” Long Shiyan replied and then remained silent. The bandits were easily handled, plus she wanted to try out her new combat techniques. It was impossible for her to use her former moves, otherwise, she would easily be found out.

The next day, Long Shiyan arrived early to use a carriage. She waited until all the carriages to leave except for one. When only one was left, she began to move. At this moment, a boy with ordinary clothing walked slowly towards the carriage. Long Shiyan only took a short glimpse at him, and then placed her teacup down and walked over to the carriage as well.

When she came near, she overheard people speaking.

“Even if you are dissatisfied, this carriage will not move.” The driver looked down at the boy in disdain.

The teenager swept a glance around the area and did not see anyone else coming. His face revealed a dejected expression. The carriage next to him was special in shape. It was a long carriage drawn by a white horse with wings. The carriage contained dozens of free seats, which would be simple to fill up. His lips twitched as he smiled. “I already said, Uncle, are you kidding me? How is this carriage full? When will you let me on?”

Long Shiyan ignored the two men’s bickering. She walked over and handed gold coins to the coachman. Then, she climbed into the car, found a position to sit, and then moved the giant sword that was attached to her back onto her lap.

After the young boy finished arguing with the driver, he sat next to Long Shiyan and amiably asked, “Little sister, where are you going?”

“School.” Long Shiyan simply answered.

The boy was a bit surprised. This girl was not ordinary. While her eyes were clear and innocent, her eyebrows slightly hung down, as if she had experienced many things. She wasn’t like anyone he knew.

The teenager chuckled a bit ​​and smiled. “Haha, you’re the same as me. I’m also going to the Holy Spirit Magic School to sign up for the entrance exam. I’m a fifth-level magician, and I just turned eighteen this year.”

“Eighteen years in age is pretty old, so it won’t be easy to join the Holy Spirit Magic School,” she concisely answered. She added, “You don’t seem to be swayed easily, but you also don’t look like a good person. You shouldn’t say that the school won’t dare to accept you. Look, my sword is already shaking because of you.” Her hands held her large sword, which trembled slightly on her thigh.

“Cough!” The boy almost spat out blood. He quickly collected his thoughts and laughed as he tried to smooth things over. “My name is Long Aotian, a traveler. I came here because of the Holy Spirit Magic School. It was simply a matter of convenience to enroll there. If my admission is accepted, then I’ll accept, but if not, then I won’t have any regrets. After all, the enrollment conditions of the Holy Spirit Magic School are quite high,” he said, reaching out to touch Long Shiyan’s cat ears.

But when he was about to touch it, Long Shiyan lowered her head to avoid his hand. Then, a giant sword ruthlessly swatted him in the blink of an eye, causing him to fly a few meters away and directly destroying the owner’s seat. The carriage’s owner didn’t have time to mourn before a beautiful woman rushed to the owner and handed him a bag of gold coins. She said, “These seats are all this princess’s possessions. Quickly take this princess to the Holy Spirit Magic School. If we miss the registration time, then see what this princess does to your horse-drawn carriage.”

The driver’s expression became clouded, but the moment he witnessed the girl’s imposing manner, he didn’t dare to lose his temper. Then, he inspected the money in the bag as his dark expression cleared up. This amount of money was sufficient to make up for his losses, however, he still kicked Long Aotian, “Quickly pack up and clean the area. I, your father, don’t have time to deal with you.”

Long Aotian stared straight at the man, naturally dodged the driver’s foot, and ignored him. He packed up his things and stared at the two beautiful people, one big and one small.

The beautiful woman flung her fiery red ponytail and squinted her eyes. She arrogantly said, “What are you looking at?! Haven’t you ever seen a beautiful woman before?! If you take one more look at this princess, your eyes will be gouged out and fed to the dogs.” The woman assumed a different posture in her seat. 

Long Aotian smiled and laughed as if nothing happened. “With a personality that hot-tempered, I’m not sure if you will be able to marry anyone in the future.”

“What did you say?” The girl narrowed her eyes and was about to attack him. However, she was interrupted by Long Shiyan. She whispered, “Elder Sister, you shouldn’t get angry. The more you get angry, the happier he will be. The most important thing is to head to school.”

The girl looked down and discovered a very beautiful cat-eared girl. She thought that if she hurt a little girl, it would be pretty bad. Moreover, she shouldn’t stay angry for a long time, so it was better to sell a bit of face and let him off. “Fortunately, you are lucky because this princess decided to let you go this time. If there is a next time, then you must lower your head and allow me to kick it.”

Long Aotian rubbed his nose and felt that it was really exciting to tease beautiful girls, especially the hot-tempered type. But his actions were misunderstood by the little lolita, causing him to be at a loss. He really wanted to touch her ears to the point that he couldn’t resist reaching out to them. But the power of this little girl wasn’t that simple!

Long Shiyan placed her sword back onto her legs, silently watching the coachman order the pegasus to move. The red-haired girl closed her eyes and didn’t look at Long Aotian anymore even though her interest in him was high.

In any case, Long Shiyan already expected that the story was finally moving now that Long Aotian left his seclusion.

In the original book, Long Aotian had met the woman on his journey to the Holy Spirit Magic School. Because he pretended to be a sheep to devour the wolves and had also a hoodlum-like appearance, he immediately ignited Sharon Alto’s anger.

Sharon Alto was the princess of the Alto Empire. She was fifteen-years-old and appeared as beautiful as a flower. However, her bad temper incited people to claim that she was comparable to Dongfang Lingli. Sharon had a fiery temper. Although she was haughty, Sharon was internally more kind-hearted than Dongfang Lingli. Meanwhile, Dongfang Lingli was righteous, cold, responsible, and aloof.

She was also one of the reasons why Dongfang Lingli was captured by Long Aotian and included in the harem.

In the original book, Long Aotian provoked the bad-tempered Sharon on the carriage, leading to a battle. As a result, it was unnecessary to say that Sharon was defeated by Long Aotian when he disguised as a pig to defeat a tiger. He deliberately attacked her chest and touched her legs. This extremely humiliated Sharon.

Later, at the school’s martial arts competition, Long Aotian won the championship and protected the school’s honor, which made Sharon’s view of him greatly improve. This caused her to fall in love with him. In the end, after the power struggle of the Alto Empire, she became one of Long Aotian’s harem members.

And thus, Long Aotian possessed the Alto Empire and was aided by them.

Now, Long Shiyan took her first step to successfully stopping Long Aotian.

“This miserly boy has never seen the world. He hasn’t even seen a flying carriage before. When he took a good look at it, he was so shocked at just a plain flying carriage.” Although they were reaching their destination soon, Sharon did not forget to mock Long Aotian.

Long Aotian rubbed his nose and thought that he had a bad impression on this girl, but she was too arrogant. With such a proud and arrogant appearance, if she met a truly powerful person, then she would realize that she was, in fact, a frog at the bottom of the well! Fortunately, her temper wasn’t the worst.

However, this kind of beauty was nice to tease.

As he thought this, Long Aotian opened his eyes wide and observed her breasts without restraint.

This girl wasn’t too old, but she wasn’t too small.

When Sharon noticed his gaze, she became so embarrassed that her cheeks became red. Why did she get so fired up when she faced this youngster? This person indeed had no shame!

Sharon furiously admonished, “Pervert, die! What are your eyes looking at?”

Long Aotian put on an innocent appearance. “I was shocked so I looked at you, but how could you falsely accuse me of staring at you? How could you be mad at me even if I looked at it? Besides, my eyes were looking everywhere, not just at you. Why on earth are you so angry? But considering how old you are, your chest is humongous!”

“You.” Sharon’s face flushed red all the way down to her neck. Although she didn’t know how to refute him, she couldn’t stand his vulgar words.

Long Shiyan silently sighed, this little princess really likes to rush to admonish people. Whereas Long Aotian could provoke her casually, she could only fall helpless. She was a spoiled little princess. Even though her empire was struggling, one could not expect her to be thoughtful nor would she behave herself.

Long Shiyan did not blame her, pondering over how could she resolve Sharon’s anger.
