Regarding the sudden addition of a roommate, Ye Qiuhan was actually quite looking forward to it. After returning to the dormitory, she remained in a very excited state, waiting for Qian Lin to Move her personal belongings from her room.
However, when Qian Lin actually walked in through the door with several large boxes, Ye Qiuhan couldn't help but gape.
Why were there so many things?
The academy Senior Sisters helping Qian Lin also wanted to ask this question, after all, these extremely heavy boxes weren't moved by Qian Lin, but by them!
Fortunately, each of them had strength backing them, otherwise, they really might not have been able to Move these boxes.
"Just some necessary self-defense tools. Let's put them here for now; I'll sort them out myself tomorrow morning." Qian Lin ran to the empty bed and jumped a couple of times in an open space that didn't obstruct movement.
The Senior Sisters placed the boxes at Qian Lin's feet, panting and grumbling about asking the academy for more service fees. Qian Lin indicated that they could do as they pleased; after all, it wasn't her money being spent.
After seeing off the Senior Sisters, Ye Qiuhan timidly walked over to Qian Lin and asked, "What's inside these? Are they really self-defense tools?"
"Of course, why would I lie to you?" Seeing that Ye Qiuhan was a little unconvinced, Qian Lin walked to a large box painted with black paint, opened it, revealing rows of black Flying Daggers hidden inside.
Taking a Flying Dagger out of the box, Qian Lin placed it in Ye Qiuhan's hand, signaling for the Stupid Girl to weigh it herself.
Cold, heavy, the sharp blade seemed to exude a keen aura that could cut human skin. Without a doubt, this was an absolute Sharp Weapon for killing.
And there were dozens of such Sharp Weapons in this box.
So why prepare so many Flying Daggers?! Are you planning to set up some kind of Flying Dagger Formation?!
"After all, once these things are thrown out, they're hard to recover. They're basically one-time items, so I definitely have to prepare a few more." Qian Lin noticed Ye Qiuhan's confusion and spoke with a pained expression, "One of these flying daggers costs several Spirit Stones. They're very expensive."
As she spoke, she reached into her large sleeves and pulled out two more identical black flying daggers.
Come to think of it, earlier today, Qian Lin seemed to pull a flying dagger out of her sleeve just like that, didn't she? Ye Qiuhan recalled the danger from not long ago. In other words, Qian Lin carried at least three flying daggers on her person?
"Just what kind of things do you carry around with you!"
"Oh, there's quite a lot. After all, I am the future Demon Path Supreme. There's no problem with being well-prepared, right?" Qian Lin tilted her head, indicating she had plenty of small gadgets on her.
This was a 360-degree, all-encompassing combat item system she had painstakingly created by organizing and integrating various Moves she had learned in her past life. It ranged from lethality and restriction to escaping and retreating—a complete set designed around the core principle that no matter how many tricks you have, I have a counter-measure.
This is completely beyond what being a Demon Path Supreme can explain! Ye Qiuhan shouted in her heart.
Aren't Demon Path Supremes those lunatics who shout about how their fate is determined by themselves and not by heaven? Would a lunatic understand so many survival methods? You're not a Demon Path Supreme; you're more like a Stealth Path Supreme!
"Little Girl, when you reach my age, you'll know how important these things are." Qian Lin wore an expression that said 'you're still too young.' "Alright, it's getting late. Hurry up and go to sleep."
"How old are you this year?" Ye Qiuhan asked, unable to resist, staring with dead-fish eyes.
"Counting my previous life, that would be three hundred and sixty-seven years old..."
"I'm asking about this life!" Is it really necessary to keep up the persona at a time like this! Ye Qiuhan almost couldn't suppress the urge to punch Qian Lin in the head.
She was so cool when she stood in front of me and told me to run just a moment ago. How did she turn back into this punchable state in the blink of an eye? It's truly infuriating.
"Thirteen years and six months, maybe?" Qian Lin rubbed her chin, revealing a puzzled expression.
To be honest, she really didn't remember her birthday clearly. The Northern Territory didn't have much of a custom for celebrating birthdays, and her Qian Family's style was exceptionally unrestrained, focusing on a 'free-range' upbringing.
The Family guaranteed you could eat your fill, but beyond that, you had to work hard on your own. If you caused trouble, just don't drag the Family into it.
Born into such a Family environment, Qian Lin was naturally carefree. She didn't even feel like her childhood in this life was any different from her previous one.
Well, the point in time she experienced her Rebirth was when she was three or four years old, which was about ten years ago now.
And in these ten years... she really didn't feel like there was anything different about her, except that her perspective when looking at people was a bit lower. Other aspects were pretty much the same.
A girl's reserve?
What a joke. The girls in the Northern Territory were each more fierce than the last. Qian Lin's own older female cousin could pin down Qian Lin's biological older brother and beat him—a total tomboy.
Growing up in this environment, you really couldn't expect Qian Lin to have much gender awareness. To her, the difference between men and women was probably just that one relieved themselves standing up and the other squatting down.
And even this difference would disappear after entering the Body Tempering Realm and the body gradually developed towards the transcendent. After all, at that point, practitioners have achieved Inedia. They can continue to eat and drink, but there's no more need for the rest.
So, is there a difference between men and women?
None at all!
"You have to call me 'older sister'." Ye Qiuhan suddenly wanted to let out a long sigh. She was already fourteen this year, but why did she feel like this white-haired loli was actually more mature than her?
Probably because she's a Demon Path Supreme, Ye Qiuhan muttered to herself.
"Don't even think about taking advantage of me. It's more like you should call me 'older sister'." Qian Lin would never call Ye Qiuhan her older sister. She was the Demon Path Supreme; what would it be for her to call this black-haired Stupid Girl her older sister? Acting young?
Forget it, I'm a bit tired today. Better get some rest early.
"Wait, are you going to bed without taking a bath?"
"Huh? I'm a Water Element Cultivator, why would I need to bathe?" Qian Lin, who had already taken off the male-style robe and was wearing only an inner garment, showed a confused expression. "I just need to wash my body with Water Element Spiritual Qi once to stay clean. There's absolutely no need for a bath."
As she spoke, Qian Lin sat on the edge of the bed and lifted her slender legs, which were as white as mutton-fat jade. "If you don't believe me, come smell them. There's absolutely no scent, you know."
Ye Qiuhan immediately showed an expression of shame and indignation. What did she mean by letting her smell her feet? Was it an insult!
"I won't!"
Ye Qiuhan's sudden raised voice startled Qian Lin. The white-haired Supreme Miss from the Northern Territory pondered for a few seconds but simply couldn't understand why Ye Qiuhan was angry.
Perhaps this is what her brother called the fickle nature of women?
...There are so few rebuttals, ahhh!!!
