When Hu Yanjing found out he would be classmates with Xia Xiang, he felt like the sky was falling. Xia Xiang was a nuisance in his older brothers' and sisters' year, but in their year, she was a little devil.
Take his cousin for example. On the day of Uncle Zhuo's funeral, she secretly found Xia Xiang and got into a fight with her.
As expected, she was punished and lost... She felt embarrassed and, after being forced by the head of the family to apologize, she simply stayed in the ancestral hall for two months.
Although Xia Xiang was also seriously injured, she managed to win. She actually defeated her cousin who was just as strong as her cousin Xiu!
However, Xia Xiang's brother Jiu Wu had a face as cold as ice, as if he wanted to freeze everyone to death.
Actually, he was quite envious of Xia Xiang. At least her brother would openly protect her, unlike the straight men in the clan who considered gentleness as shameful as weakness.
——
He was absolutely unwilling to be classmates with Xia Xiang! So he began the strongest resistance he had ever shown since he became aware of things, and as you can imagine, he couldn't fight against her.
He kept imagining his encounter with Xia Xiang in his mind, thinking that he might as well take the initiative to provoke her and fight. If he lost, so be it, but he could probably transfer back. However, Xia Xiang did not come on the first day of school. Instead, he met another friend.
I'd only met Ren Chenfeng a few times at my old school, but we hadn't really had much contact.
In real life, he is actually a mild-mannered person who is occasionally a little mischievous, but not obviously so.
After finding friends, he realized that transferring schools wasn't so bad after all, but what's meant to happen will happen eventually...
Xia Xiang is quite cute when she's not talking, and her personality is very different from what people say about her. With the three of them together, he even finds his daily studies and cultivation less boring.
However, she was really unlucky; she disappeared at such a young age...
After he and Ren Chenfeng returned to their previous school, they understood Xia Xiang better. In fact, these people weren't really bad; they just rejected what they saw as different.
Xia Xiang's rise from an ordinary family's young lady to become the leader's darling is an anomaly, and their friendship with the "bad girl" Xia Xiang is also an anomaly.
Some people are jealous, some are envious, and some are forced to associate with them in order to fit in.
They were happy to have some peace and quiet, to study, cultivate, search for Xia Xiang, and fight against evil forces. Such days were not bad.
But he was always getting into trouble, and he was locked up in the ancestral hall many times. He even cleaned every crack in the ancestral hall's floor tiles, but he never learned his lesson and would risk getting into trouble again next time.
They searched for a very long time, but in the end, the child came back on his own.
Although she pretended to be nonchalant on the surface, everyone could tell that she was like a completely different person.
He truly felt sorry for her, more so than anyone else.
The identity of the original power user of light is known to everyone in the power world. Assassinations come one after another, and demonized people and traitors are captured one after another.
Even after all this, she still wants to be with that Jiu Wu! It infuriates him!
——
"Are you still angry that Xia Xiang made us participate in erasing our memories?" Ren Chenfeng looked down at the documents in his hand and only spoke after sensing the low mood of the person next to him.
They had previously studied the array information left by Xia Xiang, and then were taken to the Gold Dimension and Silver Dimension to participate in the construction of the protective magnetic field. Upon their return, they lost their memories.
"No!" Hu Yanjing slammed the document on the table, his previous innocent and naive demeanor completely gone. "I'm not angry, not angry at all."
The way he gritted his teeth suggested that if Xia Xiang were in front of him, he would have bitten her to death.
"Then why don't you see her?" Ren Chenfeng smiled knowingly. "Given her current status, if you embarrass her like this, she might get angry with you."
"So what! It's all that bastard's fault!" Hu Yanjing slammed his fist on the table in anger. "I'm a military general! A military general!"
“If you don’t want to do it, that’s fine. I’ll handle the merger with the Alliance together with Gu Baobei,” Ren Chenfeng said. “He’s currently trying his best to stay in the Alliance for the long term.”
“He’s been chasing after Momo everywhere, he’s practically become half a Demon-Slaying Island person, which has driven Elder Gu half to death.”
"I just think that Jiu Wu is good as a leader, but not so good as a boyfriend," Hu Yanjing insisted. "The way they are now is really infuriating."
“I understand you; even best friends disapprove of their boyfriends,” Ren Chenfeng sighed.
He had previously thought this guy was in love but couldn't get the one he wanted, but it turned out he didn't love anyone.
"He's not your boyfriend, and you don't need to completely deny the Alliance Leader's abilities," Ren Chenfeng earnestly advised. "She's in a higher position now, she won't suffer any losses. Everyone in the universe knows Jiu Wu, the number one son-in-law of Demon-Slaying Island."
As Xia Xiang's good friend, Ren Chenfeng was naturally worried about her, but he trusted her even more. Given her previous personality, the probability of her suffering a loss was almost zero.
"Look how much he's showing off, the whole universe knows about it now." Hu Yanjing snorted and continued to work hard.
With previous experience, rebuilding the Central Tribunal was much easier, except that it was larger in scale. In addition, it would need to establish a branch in each timeline in conjunction with the Alliance to help those with superpowers improve the legal system and make them more standardized and united.
So they simply don't have that much time to care about their busy best friends; they have so many things to do of their own.
