"Do you think you know everything?" Ying Zi's transformed black mist let out a roar, "You geniuses, you know nothing at all!"
Li Xiuzhu slowly said, "Primordial Spirit Emergence has already violated the three main rules of Dao School, and your subsequent possession was even more insane. What are you trying to do? Seize someone else's body and use better aptitude to cultivate? This is a taboo you should not have touched."
"Why?!!" Ying Zi questioned, "I was reading Dao scriptures when I was three, attempted breathing exercises at ten, and had read all the classics by the age of fifteen. Do you know how much I've sacrificed for cultivation?!"
"I worked harder than you all! I put in more effort than you!!!"
"But why? Why can you geniuses effortlessly surpass my weeks, even months of cultivation?! Why?!"
"Talents for Dao cultivation are determined by Heaven, nobody can control it," Li Xiuzhu said, "Moreover, the higher the cultivation, the more dangerous it is. Many die much more horribly than you..."
"Spare me the comforting words!" Ying Zi sneered, "You high-and-mighty ones, you know nothing of the pain of working tirelessly for weeks, months, and not making any progress."
"Enough with the talk, just kill me already," Ying Zi said indifferently, "Killing all abnormities is what you love to do, right?"
"I still have some questions to ask you," Li Xiuzhu said with curiosity, "Regarding this case, there are still many unclear points."
He looked at the other party and said, "First, you lived next to Zhou Bai on purpose, exposing various flaws, just to have him report you to the teacher or police, then feign death to escape, right?"
"During this time, you selected your target for Primordial Spirit Seizing Method to take advantage of Jian Xing's talent and identity to continue cultivating."
Listening to his words, Ying Zi did not speak; she only glanced at Zhou Bai, seemingly with a special meaning in her eyes, cursing in her heart, "This idiot, I used so many methods to warn him, and he could still sleep so soundly every single day. What an idiot, idiot, idiot!!"
Li Xiuzhu: "But in this case, there is a doubt. Why did you use Zhou Bai to witness your fake death before, yet now you came to assault him?"
Ying Zi: "Hmph, I just hate this guy. He has superior talents yet wastes them recklessly..."
Li Xiuzhu shook his head, seemingly not agreeing with Ying Zi's words, "Another thing I haven't figured out is, no matter if it's the method of Primordial Spirit Emergence or Primordial Spirit Seizing Method, both are top taboos. Don't even mention a student like you. Even teachers above the fifth realm cannot easily learn this knowledge. How did you obtain it?"
Ying Zi said casually, "Idiot, forgot about the Sky Flipping Sect? Of course, they gave it to me."
Li Xiuzhu said, "Then why didn't you leave the mark of the Sky Flipping Sect at the place where you faked your death, to connect the three cases? Also, I checked your information, you've always been at school. How did you contact the Sky Flipping Sect? Or is there someone from the Sky Flipping Sect in this school?"
The black air formed by Ying Zi kept writhing, laughing lightly, "Why should I answer you? Anyway, I am already..."
Just then, beams of light shot from afar. Clearly, the Dao School of Donghua had discovered the situation here.
Li Xiuzhu hurriedly shouted, "All seniors, please be aware, this criminal still has important..."
"Banish the demon! Kill!"
Seeing a giant silver hand fiercely grabbing at Ying Zi, Li Xiuzhu quickly pointed, drawing a talisman to block the silver giant hand.
"Spare her."
But the silver giant hand instantly broke through Li Xiuzhu's talisman then squeezed Ying Zi's Primordial Spirit in one go, crushing the black Primordial Spirit into powder, dispersing into the air.
Xing Jun descended from the sky with a serious face, glanced at the already shattered Primordial Spirit, nodded, and looked at Li Xiuzhu, "Who are you? Why are you protecting this abomination?!"
As he spoke, silver light flashed around his body, seemingly with boundless Primordial Spirit power pressing towards the surrounding space. The power like mountains and seas almost compressed the air into solid.
Li Xiuzhu was surprised, "The fifth realm of the human figure path, the Giant Spiritual Diagram? The human figure path is known for its Primordial Spirit power. The fifth realm's Giant Spiritual Diagram's Primordial Spirit power can almost rival some in the sixth realm..."
Zhou Bai said aside, "Look, I find the human figure path to be much stronger. Why did you ask me to choose the sword path?"
Christina: "Just brute strength, what's there to practice? True experts must learn the sword!"
On the other side, under the pressure, Li Xiuzhu said, "I was just interrogating her at a critical moment. Are you silencing her?"
Xing Jun's brows arched, his blade-like gaze swept towards Li Xiuzhu, "Presumptuous."
Seeing the confrontation escalating, Zhou Bai immediately walked up, saying, "Teacher Xing Jun, this is Officer Li Xiuzhu. He just saved me."
Xing Jun looked at Zhou Bai, his gaze suddenly softened, "Zhou Bai, are you all right?"
"I'm fine." Feeling uncomfortable under the other's gentle gaze, Zhou Bai waved his hand, "I wasn't hurt, and Officer Li arrived just in time."
After that, more school authorities and police arrived one after another.
Zhou Bai was brought to the police station again to assist with the investigation, and throughout, Li Xiuzhu and Xing Jun kept clashing, the atmosphere intense.
After a series of inquiries, Zhou Bai was instructed to keep today's events confidential.
When Zhou Bai finally left the police station, the sky was about to light up.
Stretching, intending to take Elsa home, he saw Xing Jun walking towards him.
"Teacher Xing Jun."
Xing Jun spoke kindly, "Zhou Bai, you were in great danger this time. You must be more careful in the future. Even in our Dao School of Donghua, there are inevitably good and bad mixed. Some students can't resist temptation and end up mutated."
After advising Zhou Bai a few more words, Xing Jun's body shot into the sky, flying towards the school.
Zhou Bai let out a sigh, talking to Teacher Xing Jun always made him feel pressured. And...
"Too strange. I shouldn't have much to do with Xing Jun, right? And those teachers should all know I skip class every day. Lv Chongyang, as my lecture teacher, can't even be kind to me. Why would Xing Jun be so polite to me? Logically, he should hate me, despise me."
Zhou Bai tilted his head, thinking, "Feels so strange."
Christina: "People talk nicely to you, and you find it strange? Do you need them to despise you?"
Zhou Bai: "What do you understand, this is called logic."
Christina: "Then why don't you talk to Li Xiuzhu? If not for him, you probably wouldn't have caught that crazy lady."
Zhou Bai: "Li Xiuzhu..."
"Zhou Bai." Just then, Li Xiuzhu walked out from behind Zhou Bai, "You really are trouble. Be more careful in the future, keep your eyes open. Next time, you might not be so lucky."
Zhou Bai nodded, Li Xiuzhu then quietly reminded, "Based on my speculation, the mastermind behind Ying Zi initially intended for her to possess you. But Ying Zi, wanting to escape control, played a trick. She purposely warned you, planning to fake her death and with you, her real target being Jian Xing.
However, the mastermind noticed her trick and still ordered her to attack you."
Li Xiuzhu said seriously, "The person guiding her must be the one who gave her the method for Primordial Spirit Emergence. It is clear this mastermind has an interest in you. Be very careful."
Zhou Bai nodded, after a few more reminders, he asked, "By the way, how is Jian Xing?"
Li Xiuzhu: "Severely injured but alive. Fortunately, his Primordial Spirit was sealed by Ying Zi and not completely destroyed."
After a few more moments of concern, Li Xiuzhu patted Zhou Bai's shoulder and left.
Christina said, "Officer Li is really handsome, and he cares so much about you. Why didn't you tell him about Xing Jun's strange behavior? Xing Jun obviously silenced her, don't you think he's suspicious?!"
Zhou Bai shook his head and slowly communicated with Christina in his mind, "How did Li Xiuzhu arrive just in time?"
Christina: "Maybe he foresaw you being attacked again?"
"If he isn't the mastermind, how did he know Ying Zi would attack me again?" Zhou Bai felt a chill, "If he really isn't the mastermind, then..."
"Is he monitoring me?"
