Chapter 35: Why should I care about him?
“Your Excellency, only you can find Thorn’s demonic body now…” Li Yu lowered his head, his voice tinged with a hint of probing: “If this traitor is not dealt with, he will surely bring crisis to the Demon Realm in the future.”
Li Yuan pursed his thin lips and remained silent.
Seeing this, Bai hesitated for a few seconds and asked in a low voice, "Your Excellency, you seem to have some concerns. Are you worried about that human girl?"
“I am not worried about her,” Li Yuan said coldly.
"It was my oversight."
“Since that’s the case, then I will go and meet him myself.” Li Yuan’s lips curled into a cruel smile: “Jiang Bai, Li Yu, you two come with me.”
"yes!"
The three figures vanished into the alley in an instant.

Lingfeng Academy.
As night fell, Ye Fei still hadn't seen Li Yuan return.
"It's so late, why isn't he back yet?" Ye Fei rested her chin on her hand, seemingly deep in thought. "Could he be catching up with some acquaintances?"
Li always seemed to be alone, and he was never seen with any attendants.
Her understanding of him ended there.
The thought only flashed through her mind for a moment, and Ye Fei smiled helplessly: "Why should I care about someone so heartless? He's just wasting his time..."
In the following days, Ye Fei stopped caring whether Li Yuan had returned to the academy and focused all her attention on cultivation.
She needs to advance to the Spirit King level as soon as possible, and then go to find the Samadhi Herb that can activate the second spiritual root.
The day before the new student trial, Huang Rongyu came to see Ye Fei in person.
"Rong Yu?" Ye Fei, sitting in the pavilion, waved to Huang Rong Yu outside the courtyard. "Would you like to come in and sit for a while?"
Huang Rongyu coughed lightly, her ears turning red, and gave an awkward yet polite smile: "This is your dormitory, it's not appropriate for a man like me to..."
"You care so much about these so-called etiquettes?" Ye Fei didn't think there was anything wrong with it, and even found it a little funny: "It's not like I'm asking you to go to my room, what are you afraid of?"
“Then I’ll gladly accept.” Huang Rongyu no longer refused. He walked into the pavilion and sat facing Ye Fei. His slender fingers took out an elegant food box from his storage ring. “I bought this at a shop in Guiyuan City. Shall we eat together?”
The food box was opened, revealing some exquisitely crafted pastries.
“I saw you buy some desserts in the cafeteria last time, so I guessed you might like sweets…” Huang Rongyu became more and more embarrassed as she spoke.
Looking at the handsome young man with a slightly shy expression, Ye Fei couldn't help but chuckle: "Your expression is really interesting."
She picked up a piece of pastry with her chopsticks. The pastry melted in her mouth, and the sweet taste filled her mouth. Ye Fei was in a good mood, and her clear eyes narrowed slightly: "In this world, only good food and sincerity should not be let down. I do really like sweets. Thank you for the pastry."
"By the way, you didn't just come to see me to bring me food, did you?"
Huang Rongyu said, "Tomorrow is the freshman trial. How are your preparations going?"
Ye Fei answered truthfully: "I am currently a level four spiritual master, but I feel that I am about to touch the threshold of level five spiritual master. Perhaps I will successfully advance in the next few days."
Huang Rongyu was not surprised at all. They were all born with full spiritual power, and since they cultivated spiritual power and spiritual energy at the same time, their progress would naturally be faster than other cultivators.
He is fifteen years old and has the cultivation of a seventh-level spiritual master, but he still feels somewhat inferior in front of this young girl.
A cultivator who is about to advance to the fifth level of spiritual master at the age of thirteen is probably one of a kind in the entire human realm...
