Douluo Continent: Dark Demon God Biao, inheriting the position of an evil god

Chapter 79 Just call me Brother Jie

[Yesterday's chapter 78 took me a long time to process, and I had to delete hundreds of words. It's finally out today.]

The next day, early in the morning.

Cui Yajie stood listlessly in the corridor.

When she saw the two radiant-looking people walk out of the room, her curiosity was further aroused.

She rushed forward, pulled Zhu Lu to the corner of the corridor, and asked in a low voice, "Lulu, tell me the truth, did you two...do that last night?"

"What do you mean, 'that'?"

Zhu Lu was taken aback by her question and didn't react for a moment.

"It's...that one."

Cui Yajie blushed and gestured with her hands in a way that was hard to describe.

Zhu Lu then realized what was happening and hurriedly waved her hands in denial: "No, no, Ya Ya, what are you thinking?"

"Huh? No?!"

Cui Yajie stared wide-eyed in disbelief.

She stroked her chin, looked Dai Yuntian up and down as he waited leisurely not far away, and whispered in Zhu Lu's ear:

"No way? Lulu, with a beauty like you in front of him, he can remain unmoved?"

"I'm saying... that guy Dai Yuntian, could it be... he doesn't like girls?"

"Lulu, I've heard that some men don't like women, but are instead attracted to men... and recently a bunch of men have appeared on the mainland who specifically target men. You'd better keep an eye on Dai Yuntian and make sure he doesn't go astray."

"puff--"

Zhu Lu was both amused and exasperated by her outrageous guess, and was about to explain.

A mocking voice cut in from the side:

"Hey, have you two finished whispering? If you keep dawdling, you'll be late."

You talk badly about someone and get caught by the person in question.

Cui Yajie blushed instantly and stammered, "Ah! I'm done, I'm done! Let's go."

After saying that, she turned around and ran towards the stairwell without looking back.

Zhu Lu watched her friend's retreating figure and couldn't help but chuckle. She gave him a playful glare and said, "Brother Yuntian, look at you, you scared Ya Ya so much."

Dai Yuntian naturally took her hand, raised an eyebrow and smiled, "Who told her to talk about me behind my back?"

……

Freshman class.

Perhaps because the class had lost face under Dai Yuntian's leadership yesterday, Zhou Yi, who is usually strict and punctual, was unusually late.

The students whispered.

Huo Yuhao sat in his seat, his mind replaying the scene of Dai Yuntian instantly crushing Xu Sanshi yesterday. The more he thought about it, the more agitated he became.

"Brother Tianmeng, is his strength... truly without any flaws?"

Huo Yuhao asked again, unwilling to accept the situation.

In the sea of ​​spirit, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm lazily said, "Yuhao, I'm not trying to discourage you, but that kid is really strange! His speed, strength, reaction, and grasp of timing are nothing like a Soul Master. Among the same level, trying to beat him in a head-on confrontation is as difficult as climbing to heaven."

The thought that he might have no hope of revenge made Huo Yuhao even more agitated, and he couldn't help but look at Wang Dong beside him.

This was the only "boy" in the class who gave him an inexplicable feeling of liking at first sight.

But the thought of Wang Dong and Dai Yuntian having a pleasant conversation yesterday burned a bitter jealousy in his heart.

But he still held onto a sliver of hope, thinking that perhaps Wang Dong was simply being deceived by Dai Yuntian's hypocritical appearance.
Huo Yuhao still harbored a sliver of hope.

He took a deep breath, casually turned to the side, and asked indirectly, "Wang Dong, you and Dai Yuntian seem to be getting along quite well?"

Wang Dong replied irritably, "Good? Good my ass, he's just a bastard who forgets his friends for the sake of a pretty face."

This answer immediately delighted Huo Yuhao.

He pressed his advantage, saying, "Wang Dong, take my advice. It's best to stay away from him. He's the young master of the White Tiger Duke's mansion, and he's used to being arrogant and domineering. Getting too close to him won't do you any good."

Wang Dong chuckled, turned his head and glanced at him sideways, ignoring him. Huo Yuhao, however, thought Wang Dong had taken his words to heart and began to intensify his "accusations."

He embellished and vividly recounted his mother's experiences at the Duke's mansion and how the Dai family "mistreated" them.

They wanted to portray Dai Yuntian as someone who bullied others and indirectly caused his mother's death from depression.

He became more and more agitated as he spoke, completely oblivious to the increasingly somber expression on Wang Dong's face beside him.

finally--

Wang Dong, unable to contain himself any longer, slammed his fist on the table in anger.

The loud noise startled everyone present, and they all looked over.

Xiao Xiao, who was sitting in the front row, also turned around in surprise.

Based on our interaction yesterday, Wang Dong, though a bit arrogant, had a fairly stable temper. Why did he get so angry today?
"Huo Yuhao, are you ever going to stop? Is it fun to gossip and spread rumors behind other people's backs? I, Wang Dong, have eyes to see what kind of person Dai Yuntian is! Do I need you to keep pointing fingers and making endless comments here?!"

These words exploded like a thunderclap in the quiet classroom! The students looked at each other in surprise, and a buzz of discussion arose:

"No way? Huo Yuhao seems like a very honest person, yet he talks badly about people behind their backs?"

"I remember Dai Yuntian was the one who helped us out of that predicament yesterday, right? How could Huo Yuhao do this?!"

"Yes, if it weren't for him, that old witch could have killed us. I never would have guessed, tsk tsk tsk!"

"You can only know a person's face but not his heart..."

Seeing the strange looks from everyone, Huo Yuhao's face turned ugly, and he hurriedly tried to explain, "Wang Dong! I'm telling the truth, the Dai family... they just bullied my mother and me. If it weren't for them, how could my mother have..."

"Ha... Huo Yuhao, I think you're really out of your mind."

Wang Dong gave him one last cold look, her disgust for him reaching its peak.

He stood up and said, "Everyone, who would like to change seats?"

A boy named Chen Jie sitting next to Xiao Xiao immediately raised his hand excitedly: "Me, me, me! I've wanted to sit in the front for a long time! Wang Dong, let's switch!"

Wang Dong nodded.

The two then swiftly switched places.

Chen Jie plopped down next to Huo Yuhao, grinning as he leaned in to greet him:

"Hey, Huo Yuhao, right? Actually, I noticed you on the first day of school. We'll be deskmates from now on, so please take care of me. Just call me Brother Jie!"

Although Huo Yuhao was slightly disappointed by Wang Dong's change of seats, he forced a stiff smile in response to his new deskmate's friendly gesture: "Hello, Brother Jie."

Seeing his expression, Chen Jie moved closer: "Hey, don't be so nervous, I'm not going to eat you."

He slapped Huo Yuhao's thigh and exclaimed, "Wow, you've developed quite well, you're pretty sturdy!"

Huo Yuhao felt a little uncomfortable and subconsciously moved to the side: "Brother Jie, what are you doing?"

"It's nothing, let's talk."

Not a moment's time.

Huo Yuhao was surprised to discover.

This is a bespectacled, gentle boy named Chen Jie.

It is extremely similar to my hobbies and interests.

Even their martial souls are very similar. Chen Jie's martial soul is also mental, except that his is glasses, which can release mental illusions.

Soon, Huo Yuhao forgot the low mood he had just experienced because of Wang Dong.

The two chatted enthusiastically.

Huo Yuhao was completely unaware that when Chen Jie looked at him, he always had a unique look in his eyes that he didn't give to anyone else.

It was Tianmeng Ice Silkworm in the mental space who first noticed something was wrong and reminded him, "Yuhao, be careful. I have a feeling this guy isn't up to anything."

Huo Yuhao was not happy. He had finally met someone at Shrek Academy who did not discriminate against him for his low soul power, and the two even shared common interests.

It's like someone finally finding a bottle of water in the desert; how could they possibly throw it away just because of something someone else said?
"Brother Tianmeng, don't judge a book by its cover, okay? Brother Jie is a really nice guy. He even said he'd invite me to his house for dinner next time."
