Peerless Douluo: Blood of the Black King Nidhogg!

Chapter 51: The Academy’s Favor is Not Over (Happy New Year)
Zhang Lexuan came back to her senses and looked at Mo Yuan beside her with a gentle and touching smile on her face.

"Junior brother, this is your first time meeting me. You don't know me very well, so you have this concern. But if you live in the inner courtyard for a while longer, you will know that I am definitely not the kind of person you think I am."

After saying that, the smile on Zhang Lexuan's face froze for a moment, and she said with a hint of complexity in her tone,

"As for Beibei...he was undoubtedly wrong to cheat in the fighting arena. As her...

When talking about her relationship with Beibei, Zhang Lexuan hesitated for a moment, paused, and then said,
"As her senior sister, I should be even more grateful to you and Ruoruo for stopping them in time and preventing them from getting too deeply involved and making a big mistake in the future."

"Sorry, I was thinking wrongly about you, Senior Sister."

In fact, Mo Yuan knew the result before asking that question. After all, he had read the original novel and knew Zhang Lexuan very well. It could be said that he could not find any fault with her.

The reason he asked this question was just to see what Zhang Lexuan's attitude towards Beibei was. As for the reason...

To be honest, Mo Yuan didn't know either. It was just an inexplicable thought that suddenly popped up in his mind after he saw Zhang Lexuan.

After this topic was over, the air suddenly fell silent. Neither of them had any intention of speaking again. Only the sound of the surging waves and the wind remained.

At this moment, Mo Yuan smelled the faint fragrance coming from his side and began to recall Zhang Lexuan's life recorded in the original book.

Half a minute later, Mo Yuan, who had finished his recollections, only read two words from Zhang Lexuan's life: gratitude and repaying gratitude.

Kindness...

Just as Mo Yuan silently pronounced the name, he suddenly remembered a "stand-alone server player" on Blue Star in his previous life.

Thinking of all the online memes about 'gratitude' and 'loyalty' at that time, Mo Yuan suddenly felt that a certain saying was very appropriate for Shrek Academy.

The academy's kindness is not over yet...

Just as Mo Yuan was reminiscing about the past, Zhang Lexuan suddenly said, "Junior brother, we've arrived at the inner courtyard."

Hearing this, Mo Yuan looked forward. A few hundred meters away, with the help of the scattered moonlight and the scattered lights on the island, he could see that Poseidon Island was only about a few square kilometers in size. The terrain was undulating, like a small hill.

Various pavilions and towers were dotted on it. Perhaps it was because it was already night, or perhaps the island was very quiet, and at first glance it looked as if no one lived here.

The whole island exudes a calm and comfortable atmosphere.

A distance of several hundred meters passed in a flash, and Zhang Lexuan and Mo Yuan landed on the edge of Poseidon Island. But before the two of them entered the inner courtyard, a burst of brisk footsteps sounded not far away.

"Le Xuan!"

After calling out, Han Ruoruo rushed to Zhang Lexuan and gave her a big hug. In an instant, the two giants collided, and ripples appeared in the turbulent waves.

Wow, this is so spectacular... Mo Yuan looked at the two figures hugging each other with interest.

"Okay, okay, let me go. There's a junior brother watching us next to us." Zhang Lexuan was stunned by the sudden hug, and then immediately patted Han Ruoruo on the back and asked her to let go of her.

After Han Ruoruo released herself, Zhang Lexuan asked in confusion,

"Ruoruo, aren't you practicing? Why are you here?"

"I heard from Wu Ming that the dean asked you to go to the outer courtyard to pick up a junior brother who skipped a grade and entered the inner courtyard. As soon as I heard that, I knew that junior brother must be Mo Yuan."

Han Ruoruo smiled and waved to Mo Yuan beside her as she spoke, "Junior brother, long time no see~" "Senior sister, if I remember correctly, we just met once last week, right?"

"Oh, isn't this just like what you said before, 'One day apart feels like three autumns,' and one week feels like seven three autumns, which is..."

Han Ruoruo was talking when she suddenly realized that she couldn't figure it out. Then she lowered her head and counted on her fingers one by one.
"Three or four, an autumn is three months, which means... yes, more than five years! Junior brother, don't you think it's a long time since we last saw each other for more than five years?"

Mo Yuan couldn't help but laugh at Han Ruoruo's dazed look, "Yes, yes, Senior Sister is right, we just haven't seen each other for a long time."

Zhang Lexuan, who was watching the two of them quietly from the side, had an auntie smile on her face at some point, and her eyes kept moving meaningfully between Han Ruoruo and Mo Yuan.

She finally realized that her best friend now had someone she liked.

Looking at the two people who were in a harmonious atmosphere and behaving intimately, Zhang Lexuan suddenly felt a little sad in her heart, and at the same time, a familiar figure seemed to appear in front of her.

Thinking back on Han Ruoruo's advice to him in recent months and his own thoughts on feelings, Zhang Lexuan found that the figure in front of him seemed to be getting farther and farther away from him and more and more blurred.

Zhang Lexuan was shocked when she noticed this, and quickly shook her head to get rid of all the thoughts in her mind.

How could I possibly think that? Elder Mu has been so kind to me, I absolutely cannot let him down, nor can I let him down in his hopes for me or in the arrangements he made with me...

Mo Yuan took in all the changes and strangeness of Zhang Lexuan with his peripheral vision. Although he couldn't guess her specific thoughts at the moment, he could still guess what they were.

It was nothing more than that she figured out some things and her feelings for Beibei began to rift, but when she thought of the kindness that Mr. Mu had shown her, she suppressed all those thoughts.

Mo Yuan really had nothing to say about this, he could only sigh: debts of gratitude can kill people...

"Le Xuan, aren't you going to take Junior Brother to explore the inner courtyard? How about this, I can take Junior Brother with me. I'm more familiar with him anyway."

After hearing Han Ruoruo's suggestion, Zhang Lexuan hesitated and thought for a while, and then seeing that Mo Yuan had no objection, she nodded and agreed.

"Okay, then Ruoruo will take Junior Brother to explore the inner courtyard. Don't forget to arrange a dormitory for him."

"Oh, Lexuan, I knew you would agree to me!" Han Ruoruo came to Zhang Lexuan again and gave her a big hug.

Glancing at Mo Yuan who was watching them silently with a smile, Zhang Lexuan suddenly showed a sly smile on her face. She tilted her head slightly and whispered in Han Ruoruo's ear,
"Ruoruo, if I remember correctly, Junior Brother seems to be only twelve years old, right? He is at the age of growing up, so please don't do anything bad that will hinder his development~"

Hearing Zhang Lexuan's words with hidden meaning, Han Ruoruo's face quickly flushed with shyness. She glanced at Zhang Lexuan with a reproachful look, and at the same time loosened her hands that were holding the soft body in front of her.

"Le Xuan, stop talking nonsense~ I didn't..."

Zhang Lexuan smiled and said, "Nothing?"

"Oh, stop talking, Le Xuan, please leave quickly. I still need to show my junior brother around the inner courtyard."

"Okay, okay, I'll go. I'll go."

Seeing that she had almost teased her best friend, Zhang Lexuan didn't plan to stay here any longer. After all, as the eldest sister in the inner courtyard, she had a lot to do in a day.

After greeting Mo Yuan, Zhang Lexuan turned and walked into the depths of the inner courtyard.

　It’s finished, and I’ll post two chapters today.
