Collapse, women's clothing strategy Qiyana, then

Mirror Flow, on the other hand, only took one step.

Although it was only one step, she had already arrived in front of Bai Yan, pointing her sword at his throat.

The outcome has been decided.

Bai Yan formed a hand seal with his fingers, gently flicked it in front of his chest, and then sheathed his sword.

"You've been seen through..."

"That sword strike was quite good, but it was too slow—at least from my perspective."

Jing Liu noticed a hint of sadness in Bai Yan's eyes, but his expression remained unchanged, and his tone did not change at all.

She continued, "The four realms of swordsmanship are not ascended step by step; there is a reason for using any realm at any time."

"so?"

“Indeed, you chose the wrong target when you used that sword against me.”

Bai Yan understood.

A heavy sword has no edge; this refers to fighting someone weaker than oneself.

Competing with the Mirror School in terms of foundation...

Bai Yan's eyes lit up immediately!

"Master, let's continue practicing!"

Jingliu nodded, indicating that the boy was teachable.

Volume 1: Chapter 62: Ambushed by a Bad Woman

Since the Singapore incident came to an end, Bai Yan has given reports more than once.

Some were in writing, others in person; it seems headquarters wanted to confirm the credibility of certain intelligence.

This was the first time Bai Yan had ever bet that his opponent would keep it a secret, and he wasn't sure he could keep it a secret.

Over time, he discovered that the World Serpent had remained silent.

Cocolia is still being hunted around the world, hiding everywhere and barely managing to avoid being discovered.

She must have a lot of resources, as evidenced by the fact that she hasn't been caught yet.

Rita has recently put a lot of pressure on Bai Yan.

Sure enough, he came to Bai Yan's dormitory early in the morning, acting as if he were no outsider.

"Sister Rita, what's wrong?"

"Is Xiaoyan unhappy?" she asked as she helped Bai Yan put on her stockings.

Bai Yan deliberately curled a wicked smile and said in Bai Yan's unique voice, "If Sister Rita comes tonight too."

Rita looked up at Bai Yan, her face showing a brief moment of surprise before she smiled.

"Does Xiaoyan really want it?"

Bai Yan's breath hitched.

In that instant, his brain worked at an unprecedented pace, conducting a thorough analysis based on the other person's tone of voice, facial expressions, and body language—analysis unique to intelligent beings.

The conclusion is terrifying.

She means it.

Bai Yan took a deep breath.

This is Rita, her boss.

For various reasons, she and her relationship had long since grown closer.

Some words have different meanings when said by different people.

Bai Yan couldn't help but feel a little excited.

So he took it seriously.

"think."

Rita did not respond immediately, but continued to help Bai Yan put on the rest of his clothes, just like a professional Victorian maid.

Then she silently did Bai Yan's makeup.

Bai Yan was completely bewildered by her appearance and could only silently let her touch him all over.

After a long time.

Rita stood behind Bai Yan, while Bai Yan sat in front of the dressing table, looking at the two of them in the mirror.

Their makeup and styling were exquisite, and their styles varied.

Rita stared blankly at Bai Yan's face in the mirror, remaining silent for a long time.

A moment later, she seemed to snap out of her daze and looked somewhat embarrassed.

"Sorry, I was daydreaming..."

At this moment, Bai Yan categorized the conversation they had just had as everyday banter.

Rita always knows when to stop joking about herself.

It's nothing serious; it's impossible for close friends not to joke around.

"Are any other girls coming to see you tonight?"

Upon hearing this, Bai Yan felt as if someone had tapped him with an ice-cold canned drink, and he almost jumped.

Quickly regain your composure.

"Uh, actually, people usually contact me for something."

“Mm.” Rita smiled and looked at him.

Bai Yan gave up on explaining.

"It's not in the plan, but we can't rule out the possibility that someone might have a sudden idea."

Rita lowered her gaze slightly and began to consider countermeasures for any unexpected situation.

Bai Yan was also thinking that he should practice with Master Jingliu beforehand today.

Okay, it's decided!

Practice beforehand, then wait for Sister Tazi here!

Wait a minute, what decision was I just making?

As he was seriously pondering this matter, Rita suddenly bent down, leaned close to Bai Yan's face, and gently kissed him.

Then she gently covered her mouth, admiring Bai Yan's reaction in the mirror.

"..."

"Sister Rita, you've never done this before..."

"Is Xiaoyan happy?"

"So, what exactly happened?"

I'll tell you tonight.

"..."

Bai Yan fell silent again.

"Alright, it's getting late, it's almost time to prepare for class. Breakfast is on the table, I'm going to see Lady Theresa."

"Um……"

After saying that, Rita left Bai Yan's room with steady steps.

"A sudden attack... what's the conspiracy?"

After watching Rita leave, Bai Yan glanced at the time, stopped thinking about it, and quickly prepared for class.

Himeko has recently started to intensify her teaching efforts.

It's not because I think the students aren't very good, but because I feel that with a little effort, everyone, especially the fifth team, can reach a higher level.

Bai Yan, however, was a little sleepy.

In terms of recent changes in his state of mind, he is the opposite of others.

Relaxed during the day, but a fierce battle at night.

After spending some time in St. Freya, his energy began to wane!

I drifted through the class in a daze. The bell rang, functioning like an alarm clock, and I was jolted awake the moment I heard it.

"Rooftop, rooftop..."

The fifth team usually has lunch together at noon.

Since returning from Singapore, Bai Yan and Fu Hua have become much closer, and Bai Yan even brings Fu Hua along when they go out to eat.

Thus, Bai Yan assembled the main force of the fifth squad into a table, making them the rooftop tyrants.

"Xiao Yan, come with me for a moment."

Bai Yan suddenly looked up and saw Ji Zi.

"it is good……"

office.

Himeko looked concerned.

You haven't been feeling well lately, are you feeling unwell?

It's from excessive fighting, and I don't have a menstrual period.

"I'm a little tired..."

"Then you should take care to rest, and don't train too hard, after all, you haven't been Valkyries for long."

"Ha... I was also anxious. Seeing that you guys were doing well, I was thinking about whether we could take it a step further."

"It's alright, it's alright. More sweat in training means less blood in battle. Teacher Himeko, don't blame yourself."

Upon hearing this, Himeko sighed, "Of all of you, you're the least troublesome..."

Bai Yan felt a hand touch the top of his head.

"Kiana is still a child at heart; only you can take good care of her."

"Uh... classmates who all hang out together."

Bai Yan was a little confused and thought he might as well take a nap after dinner.

“Lately, I don’t know why,” Himeko said, her voice tinged with worry, “I have this feeling that something is going to happen, but… sigh, how could I talk nonsense in front of the students… I really should quit drinking!”

Bai Yan thought to himself, "If you're going to quit drinking, you should at least remove the cabinet where you keep your liquor."

"Alright, then Xiaoyan, you should take a good rest recently. Don't rush into training."

"Oh, thank you, Himeko-sensei."

Now I'm a complete night owl.

"Alas, I didn't want it to be like this... but in the end, I couldn't escape the torrent of history."

Upon reaching the rooftop, he found the four people already waiting for him.

Kiana asked curiously what was going on. After learning that Bai Yan had been given a special day off, she was so envious that her eyes turned red, as if she was about to start tearing the house apart.

"Aunt Himeko is so biased..."

They don't call me "teacher" anymore.

"But Xiaoyan, you really haven't been feeling well lately, you should take a break!"

Kiana's emotions shifted quickly; the next second she was focusing on the dark circles under Bai Yan's eyes.

"it's okay no problem."
