Gou Honghe walked closer, but suspicion grew in his heart.
Something’s not right.
The person in the photo didn’t have the slightest Spiritual Energy fluctuation, yet the girl beside her was clearly a legitimate cultivator.
This must be a mistake!
Sigh, these young people nowadays really aren’t reliable, even getting the information wrong. Back in their generation—
Mi Shu gritted her teeth, staring at Gou Honghe like a leopard ready to pounce.
She gathered all her Spiritual Energy at her feet and stomped hard, lunging fiercely at Gou Honghe.
The moment she landed, her Spiritual Energy surged abruptly, and the barrier began to fracture like a web, almost breaking open.
Gou Honghe raised his hands, and black mist gathered around him, like a black cloak enveloping his entire body.
The barrier was repaired by this mist, restored to its original state.
"Damn it!" Mi Shu realized the gap in their cultivation base, and she stomped again, concentrating more Spiritual Energy at her fist.
It was like a suddenly bright incandescent lamp.
She struck down hard—
Gou Honghe’s arm trembled violently, his body making a cracking sound in an instant.
Mi Shu, like a mighty girl, pressed down with all the strength of her body.
Yet Gou Honghe looked like a frail elderly man, seemingly unable to withstand a blow.
However, in that moment, Mi Shu felt a sweetness in her throat, her whole body was forcefully shaken by the impact of the blow, causing her to fall backward.
Her feet sparked on the ground, and it took great effort for Mi Shu to regain her balance.
A trace of red liquid oozed from the corner of her mouth.
Mi Shu raised her hand to wipe the blood clean and whispered to Yue Qingqing, who was behind her.
"Qingqing, don’t look back later, just keep running to the school, okay?"
After that probing attack, Mi Shu knew she couldn’t possibly defeat Gou Honghe and had already resolved to fight to the death.
She decided to burn her cultivation base to break through the barrier and hold Gou Honghe back at all costs.
So that Qingqing could escape.
By then, the explosion of Spiritual Energy should alert the people from the Supernatural Management Bureau.
And the dorm mate would be saved.
"Got it." Yue Qingqing’s voice came, carrying an unusual undertone.
Mi Shu didn’t notice, only slowly closed her eyes.
Her aura rose steadily.
But just then, a hand pressed on her shoulder.
It quelled the turbulent Spiritual Energy within Mi Shu.
Like a gentle stream extinguishing boiling water, Mi Shu’s painful internal organs felt a hint of coolness.
"Don’t be alarmed by what you see later."
As soon as the words fell, Mi Shu’s pupils shrank.
She took a long, cold breath.
If Mi Shu’s Spiritual Energy was like a flickering lamp earlier, Yue Qingqing’s Spiritual Energy was like a blazing sun.
The two were on entirely different levels.
Fear flashed in Gou Honghe’s eyes.
A complete misjudgment!
No wonder Yu Mengyu didn’t dare to act; this person turned out to be a formidable opponent.
But he didn’t know that Yu Mengyu had no idea that Yue Qingqing was a cultivator.
She didn’t act due to her fear of Yan Sinian.
So she had Gou Honghe make a move.
Yet, a seemingly sure-win situation fell apart because Yue Qingqing was also a hidden cultivator.
"Your aura is very familiar." Yue Qingqing looked at Gou Honghe.
At this moment, Gou Honghe’s body began to tremble instinctively, as if touching upon scars he least wanted to remember.
That’s right, this feeling of Spiritual Energy was akin to the one who abolished his cultivation back then.
However, Gou Honghe didn’t believe that Yue Qingqing was that powerful individual from the past.
After all, she was so young; she must have been just a child back then.
Could it be he once provoked her master?
Filled with despair, Gou Honghe felt resentful towards Yu Mengyu.
Was this woman deliberately setting him up?
First, she brought the Lin Family people here, and then she sent him to deal with such a powerful cultivator.
He was just an old man trying to survive in peace—
