Chapter 400
You Can Fly? (1)
There was a lift powered by alchemy in the middle of the library. This lift could move in any direction, reaching any book you wanted.
Ye Lang didnât need anyone to teach him how to use this lift, heâd figured it out very quickly. This was also something Xuan Yuanbing expected so she didnât try.
âWe should go get some rest. Letâs come back tomorrowâŠâ
It was late at night. Time slipped by as Ye Lang sat reading within the library.
Xuan Yuanbing was unwilling to fall asleep, she had been asleep for too long. She didnât want to fall asleep with Ye Lang next to her either. However, she had to take his health into consideration and he should not stay up all night.
âOh, itâs late. Iâll continue tomorrow. Weâre not in a hurry anyway.â Ye Lang snapped his book shut then put it into his space ring. He wanted to bring the book to the competition, to read while he watched the battles.
After a thought, he shoved a pile of to-read books into his ring too.
Anyone could take whatever book they wanted here, there were no limits because the people who were allowed in would never keep the books for themselves.
Ye Lang too. Even if it wasnât Xuan Yuanbing with him, the people here wouldnât stop him because they knew Ye Lang would never keep books for himself. With his personality, him forgetting to return the books would be more likely.

âMy Lady, should we arrange for a separate room for himâŠâ said the female Light Rider when she saw Xuan Yuanbing drag him into the Sacred Ladyâs quarters while he was still reading a book.
âNo, thatâs too much trouble. Itâs not like we havenât slept together, right?â she waved, asking Ye Lang.
âMmâŠâ he nodded with no comment.
ââŠâ
Looks like Iâll have to keep this a secret. I canât stop the gentleman and my lady, thought the Light Rider.

On the second day, Ye Lang was staring at his opponent in surprise. He was surprised to see them today, more surprised than when he saw yesterdayâs opponents.
âSecond Sister, Mia, what are you both doing here?â he asked in surprised when he saw them, âto support me?â
He planned to sit and read in a corner but hesitated when he saw Second Sister and Mia.
âDidnât you see? Weâre competing. Weâre your opponents for the day,â said Second Sister with a chuckle.
ââŠGreat weather today. You both proceed, Iâll be reading.â Ye Lang started walking towards the side after a moment of stunned silence.
âLittle Brother, youâre not going to fight?â Second Sister asked immediately.
âNo, you all have your fun. Also, I wonât cheer for you,â Ye Lang had already taken himself out of the fight. It would not be appropriate to cheer for either side, although everyone, including Second Sister, knew his heart was with Ye Lanyu.
âThen just sit and watch. Donât eat though, or I will feel like punching youâŠâ Second Sister didnât force him but had a tiny request because she couldnât stand him eating as if he was watching a movie.
She didnât mind when he did that with other fights- just not her own.
âOh, Iâll be reading and drinking my tea. I wonât eat,â nodded Ye Lang. He technically agreed but his answer made her speechless.
âYou canât drink tea either,â said Second Sister. Wasnât that the same as eating?
âWhat if Iâm thirsty?â
âThen you should wait a bit or swallow your saliva. Donât drink tea there,â said SEcond Sister.
Ye Lang thought for a moment. âOkay, I understand.â
âYouâre letting him watch just like that? Arenât you afraid he might cause trouble?â her teammate spoke up. Based on yesterdayâs battle, Ye Lang could still affect the battle from the outside.
âHmm, thatâs true. Mia, go watch him there. Iâll be fine dealing with the two,â said Second Sister to Mia. She felt like Mia was the most suitable person for this because theyâd already met a few times.
However, Mia shook her head, âI donât want to. My feathers are in danger if I spend any more time near him.â
That was the truth. Ye Lang would be eyeing her feathers if she stood near him.
âDonât worry, my little brother isnât an unreasonable person. He would never touch you without your permission,â Second Sister smiled. Although she didnât spend much time with him, she knew his personality.
In addition, Ye Lang had only taken Miaâs feathers after she agreed to it. While Mia would never admit this, it was also the truth.
âThen again, if you go, heâll be focusing on you and he wonât care about the battle here.â
Ye Lang would only care about Miaâs feathers and he would ignore the fight between them.
ââŠAlright.â after a huge internal struggle, she finally. She steeled herself and prepared to face Ye Lang. The surprising thing was Ye Lang ran back.
âHehe, wait, I forgot. I want to compete too,â laughed Ye Lang. His smile was innocent, so innocent anyone could see he had another objective.
âWhat are you doing?â Ye Lanyu was the first to ask.
âI am here to help you fight them. Theyâre five people, youâre two. Thatâs bullying!â Ye Langâs awful lie hinted he had a sinister motive.
Right, that was an awful lie. If that was true, why have you been eating while you watched them both fight? This isnât even the first day!
âGo away, do you really think we donât know you have another plan? What do you want?â asked Ye Lanyu, annoyed.
Ye Lang shook his head and then said with certainty, âI canât tell you, it wonât work if I tell. Let me fight. And I pick Mia as my opponent.â
âMia?â
âMe?â
The bunch turned to look at Mia. Mia pointed at herself in confusion. Why did Ye Lang pick her?
âWhat do you really want?!â
âI canât tell you! Iâll help you deal with one of them, you both fight the four left. Be careful, Second Sister is a strong opponent. Sheâll be a lot more powerful than that Little Fei who set herself on fire,â said Ye Lang casually, still staring at Mia.
