Villain Rebirth

On this day, Qi Lin was writing and studying exercises in his room.

As a freshman of Sword Spirit Academy, he also has his own room, and it is not in the west district, but in the east district, on the same floor as Du Ruanting.

Du Ruanting walked in from the outside, put the review materials on the table, "Memorize all these things."

"..."

Qi Lin looked at the documents piled up on the table, which already exceeded his head, and swallowed hard.

"all?"

"All."

Qi Lin looked at Du Ruanting's expressionless face, pursed his mouth, and showed an aggrieved expression.This was the way he had explored during the nearly a month of staying with Du Ruanting - Du Ruanting seemed to have no resistance to his pitiful appearance.

Sure enough, Du Ruanting's hand hanging by his side tightened. He turned away from looking at Qi Lin's expression, struggled for a while, and then let go: "I have marked key points in the review materials. If you really can't finish reading, just Let’s start with the main point.”

The first session of the Four Houses Meeting was a written test, which was about sword qi cultivation and basic knowledge of medicine.Although there is an exam scope, there are too many materials. Du Ruanting gave Qi Lin the ones he had screened by himself. Qi Lin has no foundation. If he wants to pass the first round smoothly, he must memorize these materials by heart.Of course, those so-called key points were not drawn by Du Ruanting specially, but were marked by himself when sorting out, which can be regarded as a habit of his reading.

Qi Lin stared at Du Ruanting pitifully for a while, and when he saw the other party staring back at him impatiently, he withdrew his gaze embarrassingly, and resigned the materials resignedly.

Only then did Du Ruanting restore his normal gaze, and stroked Qi Lin's hair very smoothly.

"Study hard, I will check in three days."

"..." Qi Lin paused as he flipped through the documents.

After Du Ruanting finished speaking, without looking at Qi Lin's expression, he sat down cross-legged on the bed and began to practice.

Seeing that Du Ruanting closed his eyes, Qi Lin could only resign himself to his fate, and recited with a sad face.

It has to be said that the energy in the academy is more than ten times purer and richer than at home, not to mention the locations of those sects are all in places with abundant energy.This is also the reason why Du Ruanting insisted on coming to the academy, insisting on participating in the Four Academy Meeting and entering Heling Mountain.Du Ruanting circulated the sword energy in his body for more than a dozen cycles, until the red color around Jian Yuan deepened by two points, he withdrew the sword energy and opened his eyes.

It was already two hours later.

Du Ruanting felt relieved when he saw Qi Lin's back lying motionless on the table.He stood up and walked to Qi Lin's side. Just as he was about to speak, his face suddenly sank.

The person lying on the table is endorsing a book, clearly asleep!I even drool on the paper!

Resisting the urge to beat someone, Du Ruanting put one hand on the back of Qi Lin's chair and yanked it hard.

"boom--"

Qi Lin's butt made close contact with the floor heavily.

He screamed and woke up.

Qi Lin raised his head, met Du Ruanting's gloomy face, and laughed dryly: "Du, brother Du."

Du Ruanting said: "How many pages have you memorized?"

Qi Lin looked away with a guilty conscience.

Du Ruanting knelt down, pinched his chin, faced himself, "Say."

Qi Lin's eyes fluttered and he didn't dare to look directly at Du Ruanting, "...five pages."

Du Ruanting: "..."

He squeezed the fingers of the opponent's chin violently.

"It hurts, it hurts—" Qi Lin yelled in pain, his eyes suddenly filled with steam, "I know I was wrong. Brother Du, I won't dare next time."

Seeing his expression, Du Ruanting loosened his fingers involuntarily.Realizing that his heart softened again because of Qi Lin's weakness, he shook off Qi Lin's chin in self-loathing, and sat back on the sofa again.

After a while, he said bluntly, "Qi Lin, remember, I keep you by my side in the hope that you will be my right-hand man, not for you to enjoy life in peace."

Qi Lin's originally pitiful expression froze, and his face suddenly darkened.

How could he not know.Even though Du Ruanting paid attention to his immature and lovely appearance, what he cared most about was his ability.Qi Lin has no doubt that if he is mediocre or does not seek to make progress, Du Ruanting will beat himself back to his original form without hesitation.It's just that Du Ruanting's performance to him in the past month made him involuntarily get carried away.The other party seemed to be really a big brother, guiding himself, although he would not teach him everything, but it also gave him a great help.

Qi Lin pursed his lips, got up from the ground, picked up the chair, and recited the materials without saying a word.

There was a moment of silence in the room.

Looking at Qi Lin's lonely back, Du Ruanting suppressed the faint fluctuations in his heart.

"try hard."

After a while, Du Ruanting left Qi Lin's room after leaving such a sentence.

He didn't see, under Qi Lin's focused expression, there was a red light flashing in his eyes, even...even Qi Lin didn't notice it.

Early next morning.

Du Ruanting woke up from his sleep, and before he got out of bed, he heard a knock on the door.

He glanced at the alarm clock, it was only 06:30, he couldn't help frowning, who would come to him so early in the morning?

Du Ruanting got out of bed and opened the door, and saw Qi Lin, who was half a head shorter than him, holding a gadget in both hands, looking at him expectantly from bottom to top with bright eyes.

Du Ruanting's heart beat involuntarily, he took the thing in his hand and looked carefully, it was actually a small snake coiled on a branch.Although it was carved out of ordinary wood, the exquisite workmanship was something he had never seen in his life, and the small and exquisite appearance also won his heart.

"What is this?" Could it be that Qi Lin bought it to please him?Where did he get the money?

Qi Lin scratched his hair embarrassingly, and said: "I carved this myself, yesterday I..."

Du Ruanting's face darkened, and he interrupted him: "Did you carve last night?"

Qi Lin said in a daze, "Yeah, Brother Du was so angry yesterday, I just wanted to..."

Du Ruanting didn't want to listen to his explanation at all, and said coldly: "That is to say, you didn't memorize the book well last night, but spent time carving this useless thing?" He said, and he was about to crush the wood carving.

Qi Lin finally knew why Du Ruanting was angry, quickly grabbed his hand, and said distressedly: "Brother Du, don't pinch, I already recited half of it last night!"

"Half?" Du Ruanting let go of his hand, allowing Qi Lin to snatch the wood carving back from his hand.

Qi Lin checked it distressedly, and he was relieved when he saw that the little snake was not damaged in any way, and replied: "Yes, I have already recited half of it, Brother Du, don't be angry."

Du Ruanting frowned, as if he couldn't believe it, and after a while he took a meaningful look at Qi Lin and said, "Go to your room, I want to spot check."

Qi Lin nodded quickly: "Yeah."

So the two of them didn't eat anything early in the morning, and started reciting books in the room.

"What is the effect of the Fire Spirit Fruit?"

"It can enhance the cultivation of a sword cultivator with a fire-type physique, but it is only useful for sword cultivators below the Pulse Spirit Realm, and if it is eaten by an ice-type sword cultivator, it will be seriously injured."

"What can't a redwood leaf eat with?"

"You can't eat with the green pole."

"reason."

"Because redwood leaves belong to fire, and green stems belong to water, if the two medicinal materials are eaten together, they will accumulate in the body and form impurities that cannot be eliminated, affecting the absorption of spiritual energy, and even making it impossible to practice."

……

Half an hour later, Du Ruanting put down the materials in his hand, and looked at Qi Lin with an incredulous look.

Qi Lin looked a little embarrassed by him, he hesitated and said: "Brother Du, you...are you not angry?"

Du Ruanting didn't hear his words, and was immersed in his own thoughts.This guy has a strong comprehension ability, smooth cultivation, and a photographic memory... Such a talent has been obliterated for so many years, it is a waste of money!

He murmured: "Did I really pick up a treasure?"

"Brother Du?" Seeing Du Ruanting in a daze, Qi Lin couldn't help but waved his hand in front of him.

Du Ruanting regained his senses and grabbed his wrist.

If such a talent is won over by that person... Du Ruanting fought a cold war, he will definitely lose!

"Brother Du, what's the matter with you?" Qi Lin was a little hurt from being caught, but he didn't dare to pull his hand hard, so he could only continue to ask him.

Du Ruanting suddenly raised his head, looked at Qi Lin steadfastly, and said with a solemn face: "Qi Lin, you really want to follow me, right?"

Qi Lin was puzzled and said, "Of course, brother Du is so kind to me."

"That's good." Du Ruanting pulled Qi Lin in front of him, "From now on, you don't have to call me Brother Du anymore, you are my own brother, no matter what happens, I will protect you. But On the contrary, you are absolutely not allowed to betray me!"

If Qi Lin really becomes his right-hand man in the future, he will have a powerful support that can compete with him!What he has to do now is to try his best to regain Qi Lin's heart, make him completely his own, and never let that person take advantage of him.

"Of course! I will never betray Brother Du!" Although Qi Lin didn't understand why Du Ruanting said such a thing suddenly, but being asked to be the closest person to the other party, Qi Lin couldn't ask for it, so of course he agreed.

"Brother." Du Ruanting touched his face.

"Brother!" Qi Lin replied crisply.
