The trainees on the field were in a constant state of shock.
Anxious, they watched as the principal was snatched away by a cyan light and quickly disappeared into the horizon.
Compared to the other trainees' panic, Huang Yun, the head disciple, seemed unruffled.
He looked back at the surrounding trainees.
"What do we do now?"
A trainee paused, "Big brother, didn't you see? The principal was taken away!"
Huang Yuan smacked the back of his head.
"What are you, a dimwit?"
"Are you insinuating that I'm blind?"
"Then why aren't you in a hurry?" the trainee rubbed the back of his head, looking aggrieved.
"In a hurry for what?"
Huang Yuan slapped the trainee's head once more, none too gently.
"Do you believe that if you go and rescue Principal Erlong now, she would personally give you a thrashing?"
"What?" The trainee gaped, perplexed.
Huang Yuan said exasperatedly, "All of you go back and train your eyesight. Didn't you see that was the principal's man, our Luo Shen, Brother Luo!!"
"Without Brother Luo's generous gift of Spiritual Liquid, do you think our Soul Power levels could have improved this quickly?"
"A bunch of ingrates."
"Big brother, are you saying it was Brother Luo who took the principal just now?" The trainee was shocked.
"Nonsense, didn't you see the principal didn't even resist? What are you all so worried about? If it wasn't willingly, with her temperament, she would've released her Martial Soul True Body and thrashed the invader within minutes."
"Hiss—"
The trainees took in a sharp breath of air, looking towards where Luo Yu had disappeared in the sky, eyes filled with awe and wonder.
"Brother Luo can actually fly?"
"Tsk, don't act so surprised."
Huang Yuan shook his head repeatedly.
Having witnessed Luo Yu's many oddities, he was hardly surprised by any new display.
He covered his mouth as he yawned, stretching widely, his bones cracking audibly.
"Alright, disperse."
"The principal probably won't be back tonight."
...
Above the high clouds, in the blazing daylight,
A cyan light streaked by in a flash, swift as lightning.
With a shake of Luo Yu's wings, he could stir up a fierce wind and soar thousands of meters through the sky.
In his arms, he was tightly embracing a fiery and sexy beauty in black leather.
"Who are you, let me go!"
Liu Erlong let out a cry of alarm, her slender hands repeatedly slapping Luo Yu's arms that were wrapping her.
Before Luo Yu could speak, she opened her red lips and bit down hard on his arm.
"Smack!"
Luo Yu gave Liu Erlong's rounded behind a smack.
"That's enough, stop pretending!"
"You, woman, did it on purpose, biting me!!"
The panic on Liu Erlong's mature and pretty face faded as she hummed softly, "How did you know I was pretending?"
"Pfft."
Luo Yu rolled his eyes, "You're no little girl. If you had really been kidnapped,"
"I reckon the first thing you'd do is activate your Martial Soul, shine your Soul Rings, and unleash your trump card."
"And here you are, not using even a hint of Soul Power but instead using your mouth to bite?"
"Hmph, I did it on purpose, to bite you, you heartbreaker. You took this long to remember me."
Liu Erlong tilted her head back, her red lips pouting, resentful as she stared at the man who had haunted her dreams for the better part of a year.
Not once did she exhibit fear of the heights because she had absolute trust in the man holding her.
"Who's a heartbreaker? Wasn't I busy cultivating?"
"Men, if we don't work hard today, we'll be trash tomorrow."
"Stop using cultivation as an excuse. Even if you were in seclusion, couldn't you have sent a message all this time?"
Liu Erlong glared with her shiny, beautiful eyes.
With a swift move, her hand reached down, clutching tightly.
"Tell me, did you get caught up with some vixen and forgot to come back?"
"Hiss—"
Luo Yu took a sharp breath, his body swayed, and the rhythm of his wingbeats became erratic.
"Let's talk this out, if we fall, it's game over for both of us."
Liu Erlong snorted, "Answer my question first."
It must be said, a jealous woman is quite terrifying.
As Luo Yu's flight became unstable, swaying left and right, she didn't blink.
"Didn't I tell you before I left?"
"This time, it was really a narrow escape from death, I almost didn't make it back."
"Wait, I'll show you; both my legs are crippled."
Liu Erlong glanced downward with a sneer, her fingers squeezing harder.
"I don't know if those two legs of yours are okay."
"Your leg seems to be working just fine to me!"
Luo Yu's dark eyes glared, his tone conveying a dangerous meaning.
"Let go of me right now."
"You can't just move it around recklessly."
"Keep it up, and I'll fight back!"
Liu Erlong was unyielding, his chin raised defiantly.
"Fight back then, I want to see how you'll do it."
"Fine, just you wait."
Luo Yu's gaze locked onto a thick white cloud; his Fengshen Longyi glittered with dazzling light.
He plunged directly into the cloud layer with Liu Erlong in tow.
Inside the cloud, there was a moment of silence, followed by a ripping noise, as if something had been torn apart.
Liu Erlong's voice came out in panic, completely unlike his earlier unruly demeanor.
"Hey, what are you doing!"
"You're not going to mess around for real, are you? We're still in the sky."
"Stop, I was wrong, okay? I was wrong!!"
Luo Yu's laughter, tinged with mischievousness, rang out.
"No, you're not wrong; it's my fault."
"It's my fault for not coming back to see you for so long, so now I need to make it up to you properly."
The clouds churned wildly, constantly changing shape...
After a long while.
Luo Yu emerged with his face flushed red, holding Liu Erlong as he flew out, but the flapping of his wings had noticeably slowed.
The Liu Erlong in his arms was now behaving herself, her red lips tightly pursed, allowing him to hold her.
The black leather jacket she had been wearing was gone, replaced with Luo Yu's spare green shirt.
Her cheeks were pink, reminiscent of the rosy clouds on the horizon.
"Let's go, we're heading down!"
Luo Yu landed with Liu Erlong on a steep cliff.
Standing back on solid ground, Liu Erlong took a moment to gather her wits.
Images of what had just happened in the clouds flashed through her mind.
Crazy.
Insanely crazy.
She had never imagined that such things could happen to her in her lifetime; she didn't know whether to call her man fearless or creative.
"Clang!"
Luo Yu pulled out a wheelchair and placed it atop the cliff.
Supporting himself with his arms on the armrests, he sat down.
"Hey, are you really putting this act on?" Liu Erlong rolled her eyes.
"What act? My legs are genuinely not working well right now," Luo Yu said flatly.
Liu Erlong gave him a coquettish look, her face flushed, and spat out, "Come on, you were healthier than a healthy person just now."
Luo Yu curled his lip.
"I used my waist; what does that have to do with my legs?"
Liu Erlong was taken aback, her pretty face showing signs of concern.
"Your legs—they're not really out of commission now, are they?"
Luo Yu waved his hand.
"Mind your words—it's just temporary!"
"Who did this to you?!"
Liu Erlong's puzzled eyes sharpened, her fists clenched tightly, and her sexy figure suddenly exuded a violent aura.
Luo Yu lifted his arm and drew the beauty close to him.
"Don't worry; it's self-inflicted."
"If nothing goes wrong, it should heal up soon."
Liu Erlong was about to speak.
Luo Yu's hand covered her red lips and he gestured towards the horizon with his eyes.
"Don't talk, just look over there."
"Hmm?"
Liu Erlong followed his gaze.
The setting sun dipped below the horizon, the vast white clouds turning maple red, a magnificent and breath-taking vista.
After enjoying the sunset from the cliff, Luo Yu took Liu Erlong back to her quarters at Blue Tyrant Academy.
Once again, a thorough consolation was carried out.
Eventually, the woman kicked him out of the room, implying she had to take her students to the Senior Soul Master competition the next day.
How could she lead them if she couldn't walk?
Luo Yu smiled wryly and flew back to his hotel.
Just as he flew in through the window, Luo Yu was taken aback.
The room was pitch dark, devoid of any light, illuminated only by the stars spilling in.
And there were two pairs of bright eyes, staring intently at him, giving him quite a fright...
