The sun set in the west, glowing red, like blood, staining the western sky. The clouds in the sky turn orange under the reflection of the sunlight, constantly changing shapes, and look extraordinarily magnificent.

Snub walked out of the main building, looking at the strange scenery of the western sky, and didn't know what he was thinking. He had just finished his afternoon class, and Violet Academy not only taught magic and martial arts, but also had many elective courses, such as military strategy, politics, medicine, etc., and even art, cultivating talents in many aspects. Snub Star chose Scouting, which he felt would be more useful to him. Violet Academy has a large amount of teaching, and even if the things taught in a class are cold, they can only be memorized completely, and there is not much time to spare, and as for the others, it is estimated that they need to review after going back.

Out of the main building, Snub Star walked north. To the north of the main building is the dormitory, which is connected to the main building by a wide boulevard, which is flanked by lush trees and foliage, like a real forest. It is precisely because of this that the air on the boulevard is incomparably fresh, and the moist water vapor contained in it makes every breath of the cold star feel extremely comfortable. When passing through the dormitory, Snub Star did not stop at the cafeteria, because his destination was not the dormitory area, but the back mountain, which was behind the dormitory area, the northernmost part of the college. In fact, strictly speaking, Houshan is not a "mountain", but a slightly higher hill with a variety of trees and a complex terrain, and students often come here to relax after class. However, it is dinner time, and it is estimated that there are no people in the back mountain, which is why Snub Star only told Caroline to go to the back mountain, not the specific location of the back mountain.

Snub walked slowly, through the boulevard, to the dormitory area. Because it was not long after the end of the afternoon elective classes and it was almost dinner time, there were many people in the dormitory, and students in white, blue, and purple uniforms kept entering the dormitory and rushing to the cafeteria like a sea of violets. Snub Star avoided the crowd and wanted to bypass here to go to the back mountain, but at this moment, a voice that made Snub Star unexpectedly sounded behind him: "Snub Star Junior." ”

The voice was very gentle, as kind as a spring breeze. Snub Xing turned his head to look at the voice and found two girls in white behind him. One of them has a gentle and beautiful eyebrow like a picture scroll, and his long blue hair hangs naturally behind him, like a waterfall. She is tall and tall, and the white school uniform is worn on her body, which complements her own temperament and perfectly shows the femininity of a woman. The other girl gave the impression of the complete opposite, her facial features were delicate, as if they had been carefully carved by the heavens, and her long fiery red hair reached her shoulders. Each step seemed like a leap, her fiery red hair bouncing up and down as she walked, like a real flame.

Snub Star recognized one of them: "Sister Sallyste." ”

Sally still had that gentle smile on her face that never seemed to change: "Brother Snub Xing, I didn't expect to see you here, this is Fan Ni, my classmate." ”

"Senior Sister Fanny. Snub nodded, his tone still as cold as usual.

Fan Ni said in surprise: "Wow, junior brother, you are so beautiful, you seem to be even more beautiful than me." As she spoke, she touched her face and continued without any scruples: "Why are you so beautiful, can you teach me?"

A trace of embarrassment quickly flashed on Sarister's face, and she seemed to regret a little regret taking Fanny to greet Snub Star, and quickly changed the topic: "Senior Snub Star, you should start class for the first time today, can you adapt to the school curriculum?"

"I'm fine, I can basically adapt, thank you for your concern. ”

"It's dinner time, are you going to have dinner too?"

"No," Snub Star shook his head, "I made an appointment with someone else to meet, and I want to leave first." ”

Fanny's eyes suddenly lit up, and she was just about to speak, but she was stunned by Sally and immediately took it back. Sally smiled and said, "In that case, junior brother, hurry up." ”

Snub nodded and left Sally and Fanny, walking back to the back mountain.

Most of the roads in Violet College are paved with white stone slabs, which is not only beautiful, but also unusually smooth to walk, and even the carriage does not feel a trace of bumps when it passes, which shows the craftsmanship of the school. Everywhere, however, there will always be exceptions, as is the case with this road from the dormitory to the back hill.

The road is more of a path than a path, made up of cyan stone slabs embedded in the dirt. Each slab is rectangular, about a meter long, and about the length of a foot's length. The stone slabs are spaced about one step apart, and when you walk on them, each stone slab is a step, winding all the way to the back mountain. The green moss creeping on the cyan slabs made the slabs a little slippery, but they added a sense of seclusion to the path, as if no one had ever been there. The flat ground where this path is located is planted with light green grass, and from time to time there is a white dandelion dotted in between, which makes this path have a touch of lively vitality in the quiet.

Leng Luoxing walked on this path leading to the back mountain, looking at the surrounding scenery, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart for the college's good intentions. Snub Star walked along the path and walked into a forest, which was considered to be the range of the back mountain. The snub star walked quietly, with tall trees on both sides, including green pines, sycamores, camellia trees, etc., all kinds of trees were randomly staggered with each other, without any regularity, as if they were real primeval forests. It is precisely this kind of casualness that can relax the minds of the students who come here and give them a sense of freedom.

At this moment, the sound of feet stepping on stone slabs sounded on the road in front of the cold star, and it was slowly approaching. It was dinner time at this time, and most of the students were eating in the cafeteria, so Snub Star didn't meet anyone when he walked down this road. The sound that sounded now was tantamount to indicating that someone was also walking on this road, and it was coming from the opposite direction to Snub Star, that is, the other party was returning to the dormitory area from the back mountain, which made Snub Star have a trace of doubt in his heart. According to this time, when the other party is in the back mountain, it should still be in class, why didn't the other party go to class, but came to the back mountain?

Just as Snub Star was thinking this, the footsteps in front of him turned a corner, and the owner of the footsteps appeared in front of him. Snub Star's gaze looked over, it was a girl, she looked about twenty years old, wearing a purple school uniform representing the fifth and sixth grades, and was walking slowly down the path. She has long black hair that hangs down to her back, upright facial features, and a pair of slender phoenix eyes with thrilling beauty. Her pupils were deep black, like the most beautiful black jewels, but the expression on her pretty face was incomparably serene.

Snub Xing looked at her, although she still had that cold expression, but her heart was slightly shocked. This shock did not come from her beauty, but from her cultivation. When Snub Xing used his spiritual power to investigate, he found that this girl's cultivation had actually reached the early stage of the saint level!

The girl also saw the snub star and nodded to him as a courtesy, and the snub star also nodded in return, and then the two staggered by, neither of them looking at each other again. In the dark, both of them had a strange feeling in their hearts, as if they would meet again somewhere.

Listening to the footsteps behind him, Leng Luo Xing continued to move forward, gradually walking into the back mountain. The back mountain is also planted with all kinds of tall trees, blocking the sunlight from the west, and it looks extremely dark. There are also craggy rocks in the mountains, and the shadows of the trees cast on them, almost blending with them, making it difficult to distinguish. A few rays of broken light shine through the dense foliage and shine on the ground in the forest, and you can see the accumulation of fallen leaves, completely covering the ground. Snub Star stood on a rock, waiting quietly. He could feel that the sun had set more than three-quarters of the way down, and that night was coming soon, and Caroline should be able to reach the back mountain soon. So, Snub Star closed his eyes and began to cultivate quietly, a faint silver light emanating from his body, illuminating a small area around his body. At this moment, he seemed to have become a star, emitting a faint silver starlight, dyeing the surrounding trees with a faint layer of silver.

After a while, Snub Star heard very light footsteps coming from a distance, and he opened his eyes and looked in the direction where the sound was coming from. The slight sound of footsteps was coming from the path, and it was getting closer, apparently someone was walking along it. Snub Star whispered, "Caroline." ”

His voice was not loud, but it was very clear in the silence of the forest. At the sound of his voice, the footsteps stopped for a moment, then the footsteps became softer, but there was a slight whistling sound. Snub Xing looked into the distance of the path, only to see a petite figure with a faint cyan light, approaching him at an extremely fast speed. The figure was extremely light, and the sound of each step on the cyan stone slab was so weak that it was almost muffled by the howling of the wind. Soon, this figure arrived in front of the cold star, and the blue light disappeared, revealing the true face of the figure. It was Caroline, her long blue hair still floating in the air, giving her an erratic beauty.

"You're here. ”

Caroline nodded, she looked at the cold star, her expression was a little complicated: "You said that there is something very important here, what is it?"

The two of them were separated by a distance of five paces, silently facing each other, and neither spoke. It was already completely dark, and the night wind blew between them, rolling up a few fallen leaves on the ground between them. The trees were completely dark, with the occasional faint starlight hitting the trunks of the trees, giving them a faint glow.

"I want to know, your strength is far beyond the scope of the normal ninth-level peak, is it because you have soaked your body with dragon blood?"

Caroline was stunned, but she didn't expect that even this snubbing star could guess: "Yes." ”

Hearing Caroline's answer, he nodded, no wonder when he was with Caroline before, he could always feel a little strange aura on her body, until he found out that Caroline's strength was far beyond the normal standard, and he thought that it might be because she had soaked her body with dragon blood, thus bringing a little dragon breath.

"Is there a problem?" Caroline asked quietly, seeing the sparkle in Snub Star's usually indifferent eyes, as if thinking about something.

"It's nothing, it's just that you know that you have to be careful of dragons in the future?"

"Huh?" Caroline wondered, "Why?"

Snub Xing explained: "Soaking the body with dragon blood is a great taboo for the dragon clan, and it is not much different from the great enmity of life and death. ”

"What?" Caroline was taken aback: "Why is it said that soaking the body with dragon blood is a taboo for the dragon clan?" Hearing Snub Star's words, her heart suddenly set off a storm. That's the dragon clan, the dragon clan is recognized as the number one strong clan in the Demon Martial Continent, and its status has been maintained for an unknown amount of time, but most of them are usually hidden in the legendary dragon island, and only a few giant dragons occasionally appear on the mainland. No one knows how many dragons there are in the Dragon Clan, but almost everyone in the Demon Martial Continent knows that as long as the Dragon Clan is an adult, it is a god-level. With so many god-level masters, the strength of the dragon clan can be imagined. If soaking the body with dragon blood is a taboo for the dragon clan, then she needs to consider the possible retaliation of the dragon clan in the future, which is god-level strength after all.

"You should know that the dragon clan is the most powerful race on the Demon Martial Continent. For some reason, when Snub Star said this, Caroline felt a faint bitterness in his tone. "The reason why the dragons are strong is because their bloodline is strong, so they attach great importance to their bloodline. You should know the benefits of soaking your body in dragon blood, in fact, doing so is equivalent to using the energy in dragon blood to improve your own bloodline, which is why your body strength is so high. However, this practice is almost equivalent to stealing blood, which is absolutely intolerable to the dragons. If you find out about this by the dragons, they will definitely do everything they can to kill you. ”

"Is there such a thing?" Caroline suddenly broke out in a cold sweat: "What should I do then?"

Snub Xing was silent for a moment: "There is no way, I can only hope that I will not be discovered by the dragon clan." However, for such a long time, the dragon clan has been guarding the dragon island and has hardly ever gone out, as long as it is not extremely unlucky, it should be fine. ”

"Is that so?" Caroline was silent for a moment, "Then it will only depend on luck, thank you for telling me this." Snub didn't ask her where she got the dragon's blood, and she didn't tell Snub Star that there seemed to be some tacit understanding.

Suddenly, Caroline said, "Actually, I've always wanted to ask you, can we be friends now?"

She has always been curious about Snub Star, but now when Snub Star reminds her of the hidden dangers of soaking her body with dragon blood, she suddenly discovers that Snub Star is actually a good person, but her temperament is a little cold. Such a person should be a good friend.

Snub Xing was stunned for a moment: "I don't know, but if you don't mind, it should be okay." ”

The night breeze gently blew back the mountain, and the voices of the two echoed in the forest at night, driving the rustle of leaves. The faint starlight leaked down from the forest and shone on the faces of the two of them, reflecting their expressions. Caroline looked at the face of the snub star and suddenly laughed.

Many years later, one day, Caroline was dragging her tired body to look at the seemingly endless enemies around her, and for some reason, she suddenly remembered this image. She thought about the scene at that time, and then looked at the figure under the blue and white banner among the endless enemies opposite, and a trace of bitterness flashed in her heart, perhaps, this is the mockery of fate.
