Qing Ming City.
In the shop.
Lu Ming looked solemn.
Xiaoqing had them!
Gao Tianlang had them!
Everyone had them!
Why was it that Xiaobai did not have any?!
Lu Ming looked at Xiaobai in front of him, and he looked melancholic. It was odd. Why didn't Xiaobai have any pores?! This was not scientific!
Physical mutation?
Genetic mutation?
Was she still a human?
Lu Ming looked at Xiaobai's smooth and jade-like skin and was worried.
Seriously…
Although her skin looked fairer and more delicate and it was more beautiful and soft and felt nice to the touch with a good complexion, something seemed amiss…
How was she supposed to perspire if she had no pores?
Xiaoqing would always be drenched in perspiration…
Or perhaps…
She had skipped that step?
“Do you feel any discomfort?”
He pulled Xiaobai to his side.
“No.”
Xiaobai shook her head.
“Your body… Is there anywhere that you feel odd?” Lu Ming asked.
“Odd?”
Xiaobai thought about it and her eyes lit up. “Yes, yes. I have a lot of blood!”
“A lot of blood?”
Lu Ming's heart jumped a beat.
Xiaobai used to say that her blood was very special!
Back then he thought that the girl was talking nonsense. But now it seemed that perhaps the girl's body was indeed different from others…
“Yes.”
Xiaobai said obediently, “Master, look.”
She slit her wrist.
Pfft!
Blood spurted out.
“Xiaobai!”
Lu Ming was appalled.
“It's nothing.”
Xiaobai shook her head. “Master, wait.”
With that…
She directed her wound to a cup and she filled the cup full with blood while looking perfectly fine. Her cheeks still looked rosy.
Lu Ming turned silent.
Oh.
So this was what Xiaobai meant by she had lots of blood.
This girl…
He searched around for medicine and applied it to the wound. Given Xiaobai's fitness level, the wound healed very fast and very soon, there was no wound at all.
He could not even see a cut on her wrist.
“Have you always been like that?”
“Yes.”
“Did Xiao-Xiaobai undergo the same tempering?”
“Yes.”
“In the future, don't tell anyone this,” Lu Ming instructed.
“Okay,” Xiaobai replied obediently.
“Go ahead and cultivate.”
Lu Ming waved his hands, telling Xiaobai to leave.
He knew very well that Xiaobai did not know the root of this. If he wanted to find out the reason, perhaps the only one who knew about it would be Jiang Feng!
d.a.m.n!
What the h.e.l.l had the b.a.s.t.a.r.d done to Xiaobai!?
This would not do!
He had to ask.
But…
Just as he was about to contact Jiang Feng…
His communication device vibrated and he received a call from an unknown number.
“Who is this?” Lu Ming asked.
“h.e.l.lo. Is this Comrade Lu Ming?”
A baritone deep voice could be heard from the other end of the phone.
Lu Ming was speechless.
A—alright.
That familiar style…
That familiar tone…
“Are you from the police?”
Lu Ming sighed.
“You can tell?”
The other party was shocked.
Lu Ming's head ached.
How could he not know?!
He had received three calls from them!
So…
Zhang Xiaopang had been caught again?
However, Zhang Xiaopang had been alright the previous two times. The last time he ran away while being on the wanted list. If he was caught this time, he might be done for…
However…
Come to think of it…
This guy was really troublesome!
The situation was already complicated and he was arrested again!
As his friend… Lu Ming felt that he should give into his deepest desires.
“I don't know him,” Lu Ming said decisively.
“Huh?”
The other party was obviously confused.
D-don't know him? How is it possible that he doesn't know him?!
However, he recovered his senses right away.
“Don't worry.
“We are only asking you to aid in the investigation.”
He smiled bitterly.
“Doesn't matter, I don't know him.”
Lu Ming sneered.
“Uh—alright.”
The other party obviously had not antic.i.p.ated such a situation. However, after hearing such a reply, another person took the phone and said in a solemn tone,
“Cla.s.smate, don't be afraid! Don't worry. Come with us. We will have your back! You can share everything with us!
“We are a special investigation team sent by the Ministry of Education, with absolute authority in Qing Ming City. If he is doing something against the law, we will absolutely guarantee your safety!”
He sounded very serious.
Lu Ming was taken aback.
What did this fatty do, exactly?!
The special investigation team had already been summoned!
Last time, the investigation team was here because of the six-star python! Therefore, the fatty has already provoked people of that level?!
Lu Ming finally realized what was wrong.
The Ministry of Education…
Why the Ministry of Education?
“Well… I have a question,” Lu Ming asked cautiously. “Who do I need to give my a.s.sistance to for the investigation?”
“Don't you know?”
The other party found it odd. “Jiang Feng.”
Wait a minute…
Jiang Feng?!
d.a.m.n!
Lu Ming almost spat a mouthful of blood. “The princ.i.p.al?”
“Yes,” he confirmed.
Lu Ming was dumbstruck for a long time.
Therefore…
The person who was arrested this time… was not Zhang Xiaopang but Jiang Feng?!
“Well…”
Lu Ming looked at Xiaobai who was reading and stood further away from her before he asked cautiously, “Can I ask what crime he committed? Is it prost.i.tution or molesting students?”
His interlocutor clearly paused for a moment, suddenly looking solemn. “Did he commit these crimes?”
Lu Ming was speechless.
Oh.
It was not that…
Cough.
Why did he feel guilty?
The other party had no wish to say more. Lu Ming had to come and see them. It was just that he was curious as to what Jiang Feng had done to be arrested?!
The address…
Lu Ming was shocked. It was Jiang Feng's house?!
Very soon…
Lu Ming hurried to Jiang Feng's house.
There… Jiang Feng sat on the sofa in the living room, looking helpless. A few balding middle-aged men sat around him, seemingly controlling him.
Obviously…
These people were the big-shots from the Ministry of Education.
So, Jiang Feng was not being arrested but being controlled?
“You are here.”
Jiang Feng sighed.
“Hmm.”
Lu Ming nodded. “What's the situation?”
“Take a look yourself.”
Jiang Feng pointed to the things on the table. Lu Ming took a look and was shocked.
This was…
A large number of complaints!
From students to parents…
They complained that Jiang Feng, the princ.i.p.al, had psychological problems…
Lu Ming looked dumbstruck. What was this?
“What have you done?” he asked in shock.
“What do you think?”
Jiang Feng sighed. “The school reopened a few days ago.”
“School reopened…”
Lu Ming suddenly remembered.
Oh.
Right.
Under the pretext of ‘renovating the school', the school allowed the students to rest for a few more days. Therefore, he looked through the complaints and he was between laughter and tears.
This was really…
Why was Jiang Feng being reported?
It was simply due to the bed spirit!
After the battle, the entire school had turned pink…
When the students came back to school, at first, the students found it incredible that the school buildings, the roads and everything around them were pink. After all, the school had gone to great lengths to renovate it…
However…
When they went back to the dormitory…
When the students noticed that all their belongings had become pink, they exploded in anger…
Pink razor…
Pink kettle…
Pink undergarments…
Pink personal items…
And many more.
All the students were shocked.
What had the princ.i.p.al been doing to the school these few days?!
Why…
Everything that was locked in cabinets had turned pink as well. Could it be that the princ.i.p.al specially took them out and dyed them pink?! That was scary to think about!
Hence…
The terrified students as well as the parents who had learned of this made a report…
Afterward…
Jiang Feng was made to come here.
“Hahahaha!”
Lu Ming almost died from laughter.
What happened to the school was caused by the legacy…
Who could they reason with?
“Does the Ministry of Education know about this?”
Lu Ming felt amused.
“I have explained it to them, but they don't believe it.”
Jiang Feng felt frustrated. “They said that I might have colluded with local officials to fabricate lies. After all, it is common for officials to collude with each other…”
Lu Ming tried to stifle his laughter.
At this very moment…
The big-shots from the Ministry of Education watched silently while they talked to each other.
They hoped to a.n.a.lyze something useful from their conversation. As for the so-called legacy excuse that they came up with, it still needed to be confirmed.
The legacy was real.
It had caused an uproar.
However…
Where was the exact location?
No one was certain if it was even related to the school.
Local testimony?
Not reliable!
They had once come across a school where the princ.i.p.al treated the huge school as his own territory and did whatever he liked. He even got married to his student and used the school's budget to shoot movies that extolled their love. The investigation team went several times to investigate but did not find any evidence. They almost thought that there was nothing wrong with the school. Later everything was finally exposed due to their internal disputes…
It might be the same situation this time.
Therefore…
The first thing they did upon arriving at Qing Ming City was control Jiang Feng.
But…
Now that they listened to their conversation…
It seemed to be true.
“What about the school's surveillance camera?”
Lu Ming was speechless.
“It was ruined a long time ago.”
Jiang Feng was crestfallen too.
The legacy resulted in an uproar. The cables for the surveillance camera had been destroyed as a result.
“Oh, wait a minute.”
Lu Ming suddenly thought of something.
He looked through the communication device and quickly found a video of that day. It was not too long ago and had yet to be overwritten.
Jiang Feng was shocked. “Did you take a video of it?”
“Hmm.”
Lu Ming was somewhat regretful. “Initially I intended to use the video to extort Zhou Yang. It was a pity I did not get to use it…”
Jiang Feng was silent..
“Hey, we are still here.”
The big-shots from the Ministry of Education looked sullen.
Goodness.
They even intended to resort to extortion?
“Take a look.”
Lu Ming showed the video to them. They finally believed that when Jiang Feng told the students to leave the school that day, there was indeed something serious going on at school!
It was not that Jiang Feng wanted to go to the female dormitory to rummage through their belongings…
“Sorry, we misunderstood you.”
The big-shots felt embarra.s.sed.
“Don't worry.”
Jiang Feng sighed. “It's alright now that we have cleared things up.”
“However…”
The big-shots pondered for a moment. “Although we feel somewhat embarra.s.sed, there's still something that we have to tell you. It is not okay to extort and blackmail.”
“I didn't…”
Jiang Feng opened his mouth.
c.r.a.p!
It was Lu Ming who mentioned that just now…
“You are the princ.i.p.al. You have an influence on him.”
The big-shots from the Ministry of Education patted Jiang Feng on the shoulder, sighing.
Jiang Feng looked sullen.
Why was he being made a scapegoat for Lu Ming?!
After a long time…
The big-shots left.
There was no one in the room except for Jiang Feng and Lu Ming.
“Well… Xiaobai…” Lu Ming started.
“If you dare tell Xiaobai, I will kill you.”
Jiang Feng widened his eyes.
“No.”
Lu Ming was helpless. “It's regarding Xiaobai's body.”
“Oh?”
Jiang Feng's heart jumped a beat. “What's wrong with Xiaobai?”
“She has no hair on her body.”
Lu Ming looked worried.
Jiang Feng was dumbstruck. He felt like killing someone.
“Lu Ming! You are courting death!”
Jiang Feng was enraged.
Scoundrel!
How dare he make such remarks to him. This guy must be tired of living!
“I am serious,” Lu Ming said in a deep voice, “I can't find any pores on her arms. It is odd. Also, what's wrong with her blood?!”
Jiang Feng suddenly turned silent.
After a long time…
He opened up. “In fact, there is nothing wrong. I used to be hunted down in the past. Once I brought Xiaobai along with me and she was injured…
“I found a so-called spring of life and made Xiaobai soak in it…
“And that is how she turned out this way.
“Her body is somewhat special. I don't know exactly what went on, but in general it has undergone some kind of evolution… Therefore she seems different, but it should be a good thing.”
Jiang Feng was being truthful.
“Really?”
Lu Ming was very doubtful.
He felt that Jiang Feng was full of lies.
“I am serious.”
Jiang Feng was helpless. “Why should I lie to you regarding Xiaobai?! Oh, yes. She has good eyesight. She can see some strange things. You must have noticed it…”
Jiang Feng suddenly thought of this.
Eyesight…
Lu Ming's heart stirred slightly.
Right.
Xin-er!
Strange and mysterious aura!
Xiaobai seemed to always be able to detect abnormalities. It turned out that this was the reason behind it!
“I understand now.”
Lu Ming felt more at ease.
It did not matter if they were lies. It was alright as long as Xiaobai was fine.
Evolution?
Well…
He wondered if evolution could promote growth…
Cough.
“I will go back home now.”
Lu Ming made a move to leave.
“Don't tell Xiaobai about what happened today,” Jiang Feng ordered.
“Don't worry.”
Lu Ming acknowledged his words.
Jiang Feng watched as Lu Ming left.
Jiang Feng looked into the distance at the misty sky.
In the night sky.
A star could be seen through the mist. It was very s.h.i.+ny.
Well…
Whatever would happen would happen…
But it seemed to happen faster than expected.
Suddenly…
A cold breeze blew past.
Dark blue flames appeared in the room without reason.
Whoos.h.!.+
Whoos.h.!.+
The blue flames flashed.
The flames appeared out of thin air and a figure formed.
“Jiang Feng…”
The ghost-like figure started to speak.
“Get lost!”
There was a cold glitter in Jiang Feng's eyes.
Bang!
Endless murderous intentions condensed.
His Original Card glowed.
Swoos.h.!.+
Swoos.h.!.+
The figure vanished.
Countless lights pierced through the figure in flames. However, the flames flashed and burned once again. It was not extinguished!
“Hehe… You should know that… Attacks of this nature won't destroy me… I am indestructible!”
Swoos.h.!.+
The Original Card cut through it once again.
It was ineffective!
Pfft!
A basin of water was splashed over the flames.
It was ineffective!
Ordinary methods could not extinguish such flames.
Jiang Feng was silent.
Whoosh…
The flames flashed.
A strange and mysterious voice sounded in his mind.
“Right now… Tell me… Where the h.e.l.l is it?”
The flames were erratic.
The flame figure flashed constantly.
However…
Jiang Feng merely sneered coldly.
“I might not be able to destroy you…
“However…
“Have you forgotten that I have swallowed mouthfuls of river water. Although I have no right to master magical energy, my body…”
Shus.h.!.+
Jiang Feng suddenly unzipped his pants.
“Jiang Feng, what are you doing?!”
The flames suddenly rose. The voice was full of anger.
“Do you think you can send me away by behaving like a rogue? You are so childis.h.!.+ I have lived for long, I have seen all kinds of shapes and sizes…”
Suddenly…
A stream of water appeared.
Psss!
Psss!
The deep blue flames flickered and were extinguished
