Kong Rui stepped over them one by one and walked to Chao Bai's side. "What did you do to them?"
"I used the Heart Devouring Curse," Chao Bai said aloofly, but Kong Rui could sense that if she let him stay here any longer, he would probably lose his temper.
However, Kong Rui had to figure out who was behind this.
It would be fine if it was just a group of lackeys who came to cause trouble. If this really had something to do with Haolan Academy and the Profound Heaven Sect, Kong Rui didn't want to cause trouble for herself!
Kong Rui grabbed Chao Bai's hand. "Stand here and wait for me. I'll go back after asking a few questions."
Chao Bai was clearly unhappy, but Kong Rui pretended not to see it.
She tugged at Chao Bai's hand slightly before saying, "Be good."
It was unknown if Kong Rui's comforting tone made Chao Bai relax or if Kong Rui's words made Chao Bai happy.
