The entire campus was asleep. Lin Dan stood in the empty corridor, silently enjoying the energy that the mirage Gu brought her. They sparkled in the sky like countless stars, and then fell into her palm one by one, gathering into a brilliant galaxy.
Ai Yu was stunned by such a magnificent and fantastic scene.
Zhou Nan was still cleaning the classroom. There was a lot of blood on the floor, which had to be mopped clean. The blood on the head teacher and Ma's mother also had to be removed with a purifying talisman. The clothes they used to cover Ma Rui's wounds had long been thrown away by Lin Dan. Anyway, they would not remember anything after waking up, so losing one or two things was nothing.
As for Ma Rui’s sweatshirt covered in blood and holes? Who cares about him!
The strange man stood outside the corridor, looking up at the sky, and sighed: "See? This is the real power. It can control the overall situation in a moment, reverse life and death, and invert yin and yang."
Ai Yu looked at Lin Dan who was covered by the light with a gloomy expression.
The man glanced at her, a dark light flashed in his eyes, and then said: "Lin Dan is a genius. If she and I were born in the same era, she would definitely become a great witch. Ai Yu, there is still a big gap between you and her, so don't slack off in your practice."
"I understand, Grandmaster." Ai Yu lowered his head slightly, hiding his expression in his thick bangs.
The man raised the corners of his lips, as if smiling kindly, but there was no warmth in his eyes. He stood in the corridor and waited quietly. When he saw all the light spots disappear into Lin Dan's palm, he walked over slowly and said with a smile, "Your witchcraft has improved again."
This time, Lin Dan did not pretend not to see him. Instead, he turned his head and asked bluntly, "What is the fate of breaking the pillar?"
The man was flattered by her intent gaze at first, but then the smile on his face gradually disappeared. "You never care about other people's affairs." His tone was a little cold.
Lin Dan asked again: "What do you want me to do in exchange for you telling me?"
The man propped his arms on the wall behind her, held her in his arms, and said word by word: "So what are you willing to pay?"
Lin Dan had nothing and had nothing to exchange, so she simply slipped out from under the man's arms and walked away.
The man seemed a little disappointed, but also a little pleased. He stared at her back intently and whispered, "I'll give you a suggestion. If you eat that person, you can immediately hatch the Holy Gu and become the most powerful witch in history. You should have felt it, right? At that time under the pond, you made the worst choice. Your mind will be corroded and controlled by the Holy Gu. If you don't have a strong enough will to fight it, you will eventually become its puppet. You should have chosen me at that time."
Lin Dan also transmitted his voice: "You are not me, how do you know that I don't have a strong enough will? Who controls whom is an unknown to you, but a certainty to me. If I really can't control the Holy Gu, I will take it to hell with me."
The man stared at her back, then suddenly shook his head and chuckled, "Lin Dan, do you seem to really enjoy sending people to hell?"
Lin Dan ignored him and walked straight into the classroom.
The man stood there for a long time without moving, his eyes flickering, but what he didn't know was that the fake smile on his face had been completely replaced by a sincere smile.
“Grandmaster, do you know Lin Dan?” Ai Yu walked up to him and asked in a low voice.
"It was Lin Dan who broke the seal and woke me up. Do you think I recognize her?" The smile on the man's mouth suddenly became fake.
Ai Yu was stunned and said, "Since she knew about your existence, why did she give me the jade pendant?" That jade pendant was a space spiritual tool, which contained many treasures, including thousand-year-old stalactites, ten-thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum, peach wood sword, green fly sword, blood stone, Buddhist relics, etc. How could Lin Dan be willing to give it away casually? Could it be that she doesn't know the existence of space?
Thinking of this, Ai Yu's panic finally subsided a little. She didn't want anyone to discover the peculiarity of the jade pendant, including her master.
Speaking of this, the smile on the strange man's face slowly disappeared, his eyes were as dark as ink, as if gathering a storm, "How should I know what she is thinking? Ha, let her be..." The man flicked his sleeves and walked away, his movements seemed very free and easy, but the words he said revealed a hint of annoyance and helplessness.
He had never met anyone more difficult to approach than Lin Dan, who was unmoved by any tricks.
…………
Half an hour later, the influence of the mirage completely disappeared, and the teachers and students woke up from their sleep, but they did not notice anything unusual.
Ma's mother got up in a daze, her memory still stuck on the moment when she came to settle the score with Lin Dan. Her eyes widened immediately, and she continued her words seamlessly: "Come out with me, I will call your parents and ask them to take good care of you. School is a place for learning, what do you want to do with your heavy makeup? If you don't study hard yourself, don't teach other people's children bad things! Teacher Chen, you dare to accept such a student, I think you want to destroy the reputation of your own key high school with your own hands!"
The head teacher also got up at this moment. Her head was still fuzzy, but her memory was very clear. She hurriedly said, "Ms. Luo, you misunderstood..."
But before she could finish her words, Ma Rui covered his stomach and cried, "Mom, Fang Yi stabbed me! I'm bleeding so much, I'm going to die!"
Ma's mother looked at him strangely: "Son, what nonsense are you talking about? Can't you just stand there straight?"
"I was really stabbed. I remember it clearly! She stabbed me more than thirty times and my intestines were flowing out. Look, mom, my clothes are full of holes and blood!" Ma Rui was wearing a black sports suit, and it was difficult to see the holes and bloodstains.
Ma's mother touched his clothes carefully, and the expression on her face became more and more horrified. At this point, she could no longer remember whether the clothes were stained with blood when she found her son. She found her son in a hotel. He was lying on the floor with a dazed look on his face and some white powder on the tip of his nose.
At that time, Ma's mother did not think much about it. She just thought that her son was bullied and was upset, so he skipped school. But now, as she watched her son telling her story of how Fang Yi killed him, she felt terrified. I heard that taking drugs can cause hallucinations and even kill people. Is this the case with my son? If not, where did the blood and holes on his body come from? He was standing here fine, where was the bleeding man?
Ma's mother was completely panicked. When she heard the sound of sirens outside the school, she quickly pulled her son away. As soon as they left, the police arrived. It turned out that a classmate in the class secretly called the police when Lin Dan was not paying attention, saying that someone had been killed in the school.
When the police arrived, they quickly found the person who reported the case through the mobile phone number. However, the person knew nothing about anything and had no memory of the phone call. The deceased he was talking about was still alive and well five minutes before the police arrived, and had left in a car with his mother. Although all the surveillance cameras in the school were out of order and only captured some dense purple spots, many people in the school could testify.
The police still felt uneasy, so they asked the class teacher for the contact information of Ma's father and mother and called them to confirm.
Ma's mother was so frightened that her face turned pale. She kept saying that her son was fine and asked Ma Rui to say hello into the microphone. At this point, the police have been able to determine that this was a false alarm. They felt helpless, so they called the person who called the police to their office and criticized him severely before leaving.
The student who called the police returned to the classroom wiping his tears, completely unaware of what had happened to him.
Ai Yu turned to look at him repeatedly, her face full of sympathy, then looked at Lin Dan who was sitting at the door, with a dark light in her eyes. Lin Dan had done something very magnanimous, bewitching all the teachers and students in the school and tampering with their memories, which was a serious violation of Xuanmen precepts. If she can't beat her, naturally there will be a master from the Xuanmen sect to deal with her!
…………
The next day, Ma's mother secretly took Ma Rui to the hospital for a physical examination. The results came out soon, showing that he had indeed taken drugs and had severe anemia. If the condition continued to develop, his body could collapse at any time.
"We can't let him smoke anymore. His health is worse than that of a man in his 70s or 80s." The doctor shook his head.
Ma's mother's eyes were red: "Then what should I do?"
"Send him to detoxification," the doctor said decisively.
“No, his father will beat him to death if he finds out!” Ma’s mother waved her hands repeatedly with a terrified look on her face.
"His body is already very weak. If you don't send him to detox, he will most likely die from a drug overdose next time he takes it. You have to think clearly."
"I, I'll call his father." Ma's mother took out her cell phone, her face full of hesitation.
While the two were talking, Ma Rui secretly ran away. Half an hour later, he appeared at the door of Class 3 of Senior 2 and said to a girl sitting by the window, "I'm looking for Fang Yi. Please help me call her out."
Ma Rui is quite handsome and a second-generation rich kid, making him quite popular in his first year of high school. The girl looked at him with a blushing face, and then went to call for help. Fang Yi was admitted with the third best score in the whole grade, and because of her pure and beautiful appearance, she should have been very popular among her classmates. But she dressed in an old-fashioned way, had a withdrawn personality, and never communicated with anyone. Over time, she became a transparent person in the class.
She never dared to look directly into other people's eyes, let alone have physical contact with boys. If anyone accidentally touched the corner of her clothes, she would immediately run to the toilet to clean it, or even retch. Her behavior was spread among her classmates and she soon earned the nickname "freak".
Today, she still hid in the corner, isolating herself with a pile of textbooks.
"Freak, someone's looking for you! Freak, freak?" The girl called out to her several times but she didn't respond, so she had to call her name: "Fang Yi, someone's looking for you!"
Fang Yi poked half of her head out from the pile of books and looked out the window.
As soon as Ma Rui met her eyes, he felt a chill running up his back. This look was too familiar, cold, ruthless, and cruel, just like a knife, stabbing into his chest. His heartbeat stopped for a moment, and then he felt a sharp pain in his abdomen, as if he had returned to the most terrifying and helpless moment of yesterday.
