"Lu Yi!" Just then, a voice came from over. Lu Yi turned around and saw that it was Meng Xiang.

"Moka." Upon seeing Moka, Lu Yi waved and said.

"Lu Yi, you're amazing! You came in first place!" Meng Xiang ran up to Lu Yi, hugged him tightly, and said happily.

"Haha...it's nothing," Lu Yi laughed.

At that moment, Lu Yi saw three tall boys blocking the way of a petite girl wearing a hat and a cloak. One of the boys, who was in the lead, was reaching out towards the girl. Seeing this, Lu Yi knew that the girl was Xian Tong Zi, and that the three boys were attacking her. Seeing this, Lu Yi was furious. He stepped in front of Xian Tong Zi and said coldly to the three boys, "What do you want to do?"

"You...you are..." Looking into Lu Yi's cold, emotionless eyes, the three of them felt a chill rise from the bottom of their hearts, and they said in trembling voices.

"You guys are shameless for making a move on a girl! You've disgraced all men! Get out!!!" Lu Yi said emotionlessly.

"You...you remember this!" The leader looked at Lu Yi, then at the crowd pointing and whispering at them, uttered a harsh threat, and then fled with his two henchmen.

"Are you alright?" Seeing the three escaped, Lu Yi's cold gaze softened. When he turned around, he had already returned to his usual gentle self and asked Xian Tong Zi with concern.

"I...I'm fine, thank...thank you, Lu Yi." Looking at Lu Yi's gentle and concerned eyes, Fairy Child Zi's face involuntarily turned red, and she said in a slightly nervous tone.

"Really? That's good!"

"Lu Yi, what happened?" At this moment, Meng Xiang also noticed that something was wrong and ran up to Lu Yi to ask.

"Oh, it's nothing. I just saw three big boys bullying a little girl, so I chased them away!"

"Hmph, those three boys are really awful," Mengxiang said with a huff.

"Hehe..." Looking at Mengxiang's adorable appearance, Lu Yi said with a smile, "By the way, it's almost time to eat. Let's go to the cafeteria, it's on me!" After getting their consent, the three of them went to the cafeteria.

"By the way, I still don't know your name. What's your name?" While eating, Lu Yi suddenly remembered something and asked Xian Tong Zi.

"Ah, my name is Fairy Child Zi. Thank you so much for saving me today," Fairy Child Zi said to Lu Yi.

"Ah, I've heard of her. She's four years younger than her classmates and incredibly smart. She gets first place in every subject. She's amazing, Murasaki!" After Sendou Murasaki mentioned her name, Moka, who was standing next to her, seemed to remember something and immediately said.

"Oh, that's really impressive, Xiao Zi!" Lu Yi chimed in from the side.

"No...no, that's not true. Compared to Lu Yijun, I'm far inferior. He's handsome, smart, and the best at everything. And I...and I..." As she finished speaking, Xian Tongzi's face grew increasingly red.

"Huh???" Seeing Fairy Zi's appearance, Lu Yi and Meng Xiang exchanged a strange look, wondering what was wrong with her. However, what Fairy Zi said next shocked Lu Yi and Meng Xiang.

"I like you, Lu Yijun, please go out with me!!!" After saying that, Xian Tongzi jumped up from her chair and pounced on Lu Yijun.

Chapter Ten: Arriving in Time

"Huh???" Mengxiang was stunned for a moment, then ran to Lu Yi, pulled Xian Tong Zi off him, hugged Lu Yi, and said to Xian Tong Zi, "No, because Lu Yi is mine!"

"What makes you think Lu Yi is yours? Besides, it's none of your business who Lu Yi dates, is it?" Fairy Zi retorted.

"I...I...I don't care, I just don't agree!" Fairy Child Purple's words left Meng Xiang speechless. In her anxiety, she hugged Lu Yi even tighter and said.

"Stop, stop, stop! Can you two stop acting like children? I'm not your property. Have you ever thought about how I feel when you're fighting over me like this?" Lu Yi said helplessly, rubbing his forehead as he watched the two bickering incessantly.

"Hmph!" "Hmph!" Lu Yi's words finally stopped the two from arguing. Meng Xiang and Xian Tong Zi, one holding Lu Yi's waist and the other holding Lu Yi's arm, looked at each other, snorted at the same time, and turned their faces away, refusing to look at each other.

Watching the two of them sulking like children, Lu Yi felt a headache coming on. He had never expected this outcome. In the original story, Xian Tong Zi was in love with Meng Xiang, and only fell in love with Yue Yin after she bravely saved him. But now the situation was completely reversed. He could only sigh and think, "Sigh... Being too handsome is a problem!"

"Alright, alright!" Seeing the two still arguing, Lu Yi comforted them helplessly, then said to Fairy Zi, "Little Zi, it's not impossible for you to date me, but before that, let's be friends first!"

"Really? Haha. That's wonderful!" Fairy Zi jumped happily onto Lu Yi's lap upon hearing his reply, hugging his neck as she spoke.

"Lu Yi..." Mengxiang, standing to the side, was unhappy. She looked up at Lu Yi with teary eyes, appearing pitiful, and said.

"Well, she's just a kid, just let her have her way. Maybe it's just a passing fancy. She'll get tired of it and leave after a while!" Seeing Mengxiang's almost crying expression, he immediately whispered in her ear.

"Hmm..." Mengxiang looked helplessly at the fairy boy Zi lying on Lu Yi and said unwillingly.

"Um, let's go for a walk." Seeing that Mengxiang was a little down, Lu Yi suggested, and then said to Xian Tong Zi, who was clinging to him like a kangaroo, "Um, Zi, could you get down first?"

"do not want!"

"Um... never mind, let's leave it at that!" Lu Yi said helplessly.

Thus, a scene unfolded inside the teaching building: a stunningly handsome boy, almost otherworldly, was accompanied by an adorable girl with long pink hair. Furthermore, a petite girl wearing a hat and a cape was also seen carrying them. Seeing this, countless boys were completely stunned, then looked at Lu Yi with envy, jealousy, and resentment, and began to discuss amongst themselves.

"Who's that guy? Why is he with two girls? Especially that girl with long pink hair, she's so cute!"

"You don't know him? You're totally out of touch! That boy is Lu Yi, the undisputed number one handsome guy in Yanghai Academy. He's in Class 2 of the first year. And that girl with long pink hair is in the same class as him. Her name is Chi Ye Meng Xiang! As for the girl hanging on Lu Yi, she seems to be from the next class. Her name is Xian Tong Zi. She's said to be a genius girl."

"Oh, really? I'm so envious..."

"..."

Lu Yi was now completely deaf to everyone's opinions. Looking at the people around him, Lu Yi sighed silently. How could they know the troubles Lu Yi was going through at this moment?

"Lu Yi!" Just as Lu Yi was thinking about something, a voice came from over. He looked up and saw that it was Hu Meng.

"Ah, it's Hu Meng." Lu Yi looked at Hu Meng, put aside his thoughts, and greeted Hu Meng as she ran over.

"Who are you? Why are you on Lu Yi?" Hu Meng's expression changed as she looked at the fairy boy Zi clinging to Lu Yi, and she said in an unpleasant tone.

"Hmph, my name is Fairy Child Purple!" Hearing Hu Meng's tone, Fairy Child Purple was unhappy, but still held up her name.

"Oh, so you're that genius girl, Fairy Zi. But, clinging to Lu Yi like this isn't a good look for you!" Hu Meng gave Fairy Zi a charming smile, then walked over and hugged Lu Yi's waist, rubbing her ample breasts against him as she provocatively spoke to Fairy Zi.

"Hmph, you're no different! Let go of Lu Yi now, you milk cow!" As she spoke, a magic wand suddenly appeared in Fairy Zi's hand, and she waved it in the air.

"Who are you calling a dairy cow, you flat-chested brat!" Hearing Fairy Zi's comment, Hu Meng's forehead throbbed with anger. She yelled at Fairy Zi, but then her voice abruptly stopped. A huge frying pan had smashed into her head. Ignoring Hu Meng lying on the ground, Fairy Zi jumped off Lu Yi and ran away.

Seeing the fairy boy Zi run away, Lu Yi was startled and wanted to chase after him, but was stopped by Hu Meng, who had already stood up from the ground!

"Damn it, that brat is finally gone, now we can have some peace and quiet!" Hu Meng said, pulling Lu Yi's hand. "Why isn't Lu Yi angry at all!"

"Angry? Why?" Lu Yi asked, puzzled.

"She's so unreasonable, don't you think she's a nuisance?" Hu Meng asked.

“She’s just a child. Although she’s being a bit unreasonable, she doesn’t mean any harm. I think she just wants to get people’s attention, maybe because she’s been lonely for too long! So, you should be understanding of her!” Lu Yi was taken aback when he heard Hu Meng’s words, but then he understood.

"Oh no, Xiao Zi is in danger..." Lu Yi had just finished speaking when he felt a pang of fear. He quickly opened his divine sense to check and saw that Xian Tong Zi was being dragged by three big boys towards the back mountain. He only had time to say this to Hu Meng and Meng Xiang before his figure flashed and disappeared from the spot.

"How about it, Fairy Zi? What should we do with you?" The grade leader, who had transformed into a lizardman, grinned at her and said.

"Eat it!" Fairy Boy Zi said calmly, her head bowed.

"What?!" The three of them were stunned when they heard this.

"Eat me! I don't want to live anymore anyway. It's so painful to live alone in this world!" Fairy Boy Zi said with tears in his eyes.

"Tch, then just disappear!" Seemingly too lazy to talk to her anymore, the grade leader opened her mouth wide and bit her. Fairy Zi closed her eyes in despair.

"Stop!" Just then, a voice rang out, followed by a figure flashing past and blocking Xian Tong Zi's path.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Chapter Eleven: Joining Clubs

"Little Purple, are you alright?" Lu Yi glanced at Fairy Child Purple, then looked at the three ugly lizardmen in front of him, and said coldly, "Don't worry, I will protect you. None of you three will escape!"

"Lu Yi, Lu Yi..." Just then, Hu Meng and Meng Xiang also rushed over and ran to Lu Yi's side, confronting the three lizardmen.

"A few more suicidal individuals have shown up. What do you suggest we do?" The grade leader said angrily, looking at Lu Yi and his group who had suddenly appeared.

“Let’s just eat it. The fog is so thick, no one will know!” one of the henchmen said.

"Yeah, these must be delicious!" The grade leader said, squinting at Lu Yi, Hu Meng, and Meng Xiang.

"Hu Meng, Meng Xiang, you two stay here and protect Xiao Zi. I'll deal with these three monsters!" Lu Yi turned to Meng Xiang and Hu Meng and said, then looked at the three lizardmen with a cruel smile on his lips and murderous intent in his eyes. Without waiting for their reply, Lu Yi stomped his foot hard on the ground. With a dull thud, a pit the size of a washbasin appeared beneath his feet, and countless cracks, like a spider web, spread outwards from the pit. Using the powerful recoil, Lu Yi rushed towards the three lizardmen with a series of terrifying whooshing sounds. He was fast, too fast. By the time they sensed the danger, Lu Yi had already arrived in front of the three lizardmen.

Lu Yi grinned at the three terrified men, his eyes filled with disdain and bloodlust. With a speed barely perceptible to the naked eye, he grabbed the last tuft of hair remaining on the transformed head of the grade leader. Amidst the extreme fear in their eyes, Lu Yi slammed his right hand, which was holding the head, into the ground with a dull thud. The powerful impact caused the grade leader to faint before he could even scream, and several of his teeth were knocked out by the force.

"Tch, so weak, they're really easy to beat!" Looking at the unconscious grade leader, Lu Yi spat and said disdainfully, then turned his gaze to the two lackeys, the meaning in his eyes already self-evident.

"No, please, please let us go! We know we were wrong, we'll never do it again!" The two henchmen almost had their hearts stop beating when they saw Lu Yi looking at them. They immediately knelt on the ground and begged Lu Yi for mercy.

"Begging for mercy now? It's too late. But don't worry, I won't kill you. After all, I don't have the habit of killing people in front of girls. I'll just leave you in bed for a few years. Don't worry! Hehe..." Lu Yi chuckled and walked up to the two henchmen. Then he heard two shouts that the two henchmen had followed in their boss's footsteps.

"Alright, it's done!" After dealing with the three, Lu Yi turned around and smiled at Mengxiang and the others.

"Why? I did such terrible things to everyone, why are you still here to save me?" Fairy Child Zi asked, looking at Lu Yi and the other two, puzzled.

“We’re already friends, aren’t we? If a friend is in trouble, can we just stand by and watch her suffer?” Lu Yi came up to Xian Tong Zi, patted her head and said with a smile.

"Friends? Can we really be friends?" Upon hearing Lu Yi's words, Fairy Child Zi was taken aback and murmured.

"Of course, because we're friends now!"

"Waaah..." Upon hearing Lu Yi's affirmative answer, Fairy Child Zi couldn't help but throw herself into Lu Yi's arms and burst into tears, as if she wanted to vent all the bitterness in her heart.

Looking at the fairy child Zi venting in his arms, Lu Yi looked up at Hu Meng and Meng Xiang beside him. The three of them smiled at each other without saying much, everything was understood without words.

Several days have passed since the last incident...

"How's Xiao Zi doing lately?" Walking down the corridor, Meng Xiang and Hu Meng discussed with a smile.

"Yes, she's much better behaved now. I heard she apologized to everyone in class for her past pranks, and everyone realized they went a bit too far, so they decided to get along with her! She's very popular now!" Hu Meng said with a smile.

"That's wonderful! Little Purple has grown up so much!" Moka said with relief.

"Yes."

When the two reached the classroom door and opened it, they saw Fairy Zi (from now on, we'll call her Little Zi, her full name is too much trouble!) hugging Lu Yi and rubbing her face against his body. Lu Yi looked at her helplessly. Seeing everyone arrive, Little Zi said to Hu Meng and Meng Xiang, "Good morning!"

"Little Purple? Why are you here?" Moka asked upon seeing Little Purple.

“Lu Yijun agreed to date me, and we’re currently getting to know each other!” Xiao Zi said with a smile.

"Huh??? Wait... When did I say that?!" Lu Yi was startled by Xiao Zi's words and quickly interrupted her, then said to Meng Xiang, "Don't misunderstand, I never said that, you have to believe me!"

"No, Lu Yi is mine!" Hu Meng couldn't stand it anymore and ran up to Lu Yi, hugging his arm as she spoke.

"No, it's mine!"

"mine!"

Seeing the three of them arguing and pulling at each other, Mengxiang's face darkened, and then she suddenly lunged at Lu Yi, saying, "No, Xiao Zi, Hu Meng, because... Lu Yi is mine..."

"Ring ring..."

Just as the four of them were fooling around, the bell finally rang for class. Lu Yi wiped the sweat from his forehead and hissed, "Phew... finally free!"

"Alright, class is starting!" After entering the classroom, Nekome Shizuka clapped her hands and said to everyone, "As you all know, our academy's main teaching principle is to train youkai to live in the human world. So, just like in a normal school, let's participate in clubs together! Since the goal is to understand humans, everyone should maintain their human appearance! Be careful not to reveal your true youkai nature at all times."
