The journey back to southern Beijing was uneventful, simply because Wang Zheng had increased the altitude of his flight after confirming his location.

Although reaching Lincheng meant leaving behind the war-torn Yunnan, the straight flight through countless wildernesses still carried some flying beasts, so caution was still necessary.

Just as Wang Zheng was carefully confirming his location, he was running wildly towards the south of Beijing.

Chu Tianxing, who was leaning against Wang Zheng, turned over and rubbed his drowsy head to wake up.

When he saw a pair of snow-white calves growing back from the legs of his pants that had been turned into capri pants, he was momentarily dazed and looked around at the scenery in a daze.

Wang Zheng felt the movement beneath him and knew the old man had woken up. Afraid his principal was unaware of the severity of his injuries, he didn't lower his head, continuing to fiddle with the tracking device in his hand, deliberately speaking in a flippant tone:

"Don't look at it. With me, the King of Healing in Southern Beijing, making a move, it's naturally newer than a brand-new product."

"But you'll be in a wheelchair when you get back. You should think carefully about how you're going to face Teacher Chu and Xiaoman when you return, since you won't be able to walk for a while."

Chu Tianxing was stunned for a long while, somewhat lost in thought, before saying with a somber expression:

"What's there to face? In this era, as awakened individuals, who hasn't already made this awareness?"

Wang Zheng immediately raised an eyebrow.

"Hey, I think you're the only one who's really prepared. This time, such a big thing happened in Yunnan, and so many awakened civilians died. I don't think many of them are prepared at all. They just ran away when they were supposed to, and died when they were supposed to."

At this point, Wang Zheng put down the GPS tracker and sighed.

"But I'm not trying to criticize you, I'm criticizing my principal! You may be aware of the situation, but you can't put me in such an unjust position!"

Chu Tianxing was still the same Chu Tianxing. Even though he was injured and in poor mental condition, he still had the same fiery temper.

Upon hearing Wang Zheng's words, he immediately flew into a rage and said:

"Bullshit! I haven't even mentioned your unauthorized trespassing into the Demon King's territory yet. Don't try to pin this on me. Do you think you can get away with this? Don't even dream about it."

Wang Zheng chuckled, straightened the old man's body, and then sat cross-legged beside him.

"You attacked that mastiff demon king to draw fire, right? I bet you were already prepared to die then, weren't you?"

You say you're so old and still so irritable? Even ants cherish life, why don't humans value theirs?

Seeing Chu Tianxing's eyes widen, Wang Zheng voluntarily admitted defeat.

"Fine, fine, I am an ant, I am an ant."

Then you're saying that someone as skilled as you, a top expert, is even more exceptional, a unique three-attribute awakener like a scorpion that poops—a venomous creature.

If you were to sacrifice yourself like this, just think how much of a loss that would be to the country…

Chu Tianxing could no longer tolerate Wang Zheng's utter nonsense, and his whole body crackled with electricity.

"If you can speak, then speak; if you can't, then shut up. Where did all these proverbs and rhymes come from? Are you trying to get a master's degree in the humanities?"

Seeing that his principal had regained his spirits, Wang Zheng stopped teasing him and continued, while begging for mercy:

"Let's stop talking about that, let's continue talking about your sneak attack."

You see, everyone in southern Beijing knows that you brought me to Yunnan, but in the end, I was the only one who went back to southern Beijing.

Moreover, when the news of what happened in Yunnan spreads, people will say that I saved so many people in Tengchong, but ended up abandoning my own principal.

When people ask, that's when...

Oh, Principal Chu Tianxing of Jingnan is a man of noble character. He went to look for his missing students on his own, but was attacked by the Demon King and died for his country. How do you expect others to view me in the future?

How do you expect me to face Teacher Chu and Xiaoman?

"Do you really want to see tens of thousands of teachers and students pointing fingers at me behind my back, calling me Wang Zheng a jinx who caused the death of his own principal?"

Wang Zheng spoke fluently and logically, managing to confuse the still-dazed Chu Tianxing.

Old Man Chu was confused for a long time before finally gathering all the electricity in his body in anger and giving Wang Zheng a bolt of white lightning.

Wang Zheng had deliberately closed the Thorns Heart feature as soon as his principal's outburst occurred.

He was struck by lightning, but instead of being angry, he was even happier.

However, after unleashing his superpower, Chu Tianxing clearly frowned and didn't speak, instead pondering to himself.

Seeing this, Wang Zheng quickly interrupted.

"Principal, how did you escape from the clutches of the six demon kings? And who were those five extraordinary individuals on the battlefield before? Did you know them?"

Upon hearing Wang Zheng's question, Chu Tianxing began to explain in detail.

In fact, Wang Zheng's guess was not wrong. Chu Tianxing did indeed turn back after leaving the city, but he didn't spout nonsense like "the most dangerous place is the safest place".

Instead, they wanted to return to Baoshan City and launch another surprise attack, intending to wage guerrilla warfare...

However, he did not expect that the mastiff demon king had a unique talent, which is why he changed his route to the east after his whereabouts were exposed, and then luckily encountered the superhuman team that came to his aid after being stopped.
