Chapter 1651: Chapter 1643

Despite the warm demeanor displayed by the Chang Family father and son, Xin Lin always felt there was something amiss with them.

"I can’t detect any flaws for now; there’s not a trace of Ghost Energy on them, nor are they Ghost Cultivators."

Gui Hu remarked solemnly.

To the eye, the father and son appeared to be ordinary cultivators and businessmen.

"So, they’re unlikely to be the Zhu Family father and son; we can only wait and see."

Xin Lin pondered out loud.

After the Hao Tian Festival, the Zhu Family father and son had disappeared.

Xin Lin suspected they had gone to Tu Yuan Country, but according to Tu Suxuan’s investigation, there was no sign of them in Tu Yuan Country.

Xin Lin suspected they might have fled to another country.

However, in terms of appearance and demeanor, this father and son didn’t resemble Zhu Qianjun and his son.

Hopefully, it was just her being overly suspicious.

Xin Lin strolled away slowly.

In De Yue Building, Chang Hao watched Xin Lin as she left, a glint of cold light in his eyes.

"Tsk, such luck, she managed to escape."

Chang Hao muttered to himself.

Several carriages sped forward, heading towards Qingtian Academy.

On the carriages, many students from Shaking Light Class were intoxicated.

The female students in one carriage, and the male students in another.

Among them, Zhao Gang and Chang Yuchun were seated in one carriage.

Zhao Gang felt somewhat drunken.

Chang Yuchun, however, was clear-headed, casually chatting with Zhao Gang.

"Zhao Gang, why do I feel that Xin Lin doesn’t quite like me."

The students from Shaking Light Class all liked Chang Yuchun, making him proud.

But Xin Lin was evidently distant.

"That’s just how Xin Lin is; she’s used to being solitary. Even though we’ve been in the same class for nearly a year, she treats me the same."

Zhao Gang chuckled.

He had drunk a lot, leaving his mind a bit muddled.

"Xin Lin likes to be alone? Isn’t there anyone in the Academy with a closer relationship to her?"

Chang Yuchun inquired further.

"She has a younger brother and a good sister, and with Zuo Mingshang and the others, she’s not..."

Just as he said that, Zhao Gang suddenly realized something.

"Why are you always asking about Xin Lin?"

He suspiciously raised his head to look at Chang Yuchun.

"I’m just curious; look at her, clearly fourteen years old, yet so small. But her cultivation is quite good; do you think she had some sort of adventure?"

Chang Yuchun had been observing Xin Lin for several days, always seeing her alone without a trace of the Corpse King.

"Her stature is her business. I say, Yuchun, you don’t have some ulterior motive, do you?"

Zhao Gang gave Chang Yuchun a strange look.

"What motive could there be? Just curious, that’s all. After all, the End of Year Assessment is coming up."

Chang Yuchun laughed it off.

But it seemed like Zhao Gang suddenly became clear-headed and stopped talking.

Seeing this, Chang Yuchun’s expression darkened.

This guy isn’t easy to handle either.

At that moment, the carriage stopped.

"What’s happening outside?"

Zhao Gang grew alert.

He sensed something was quickly approaching.

Startled, he lifted the curtain.

A dark figure had already landed in front of him.

Zhao Gang was startled and prepared to act.

Instead, the figure raised a hand and grasped his neck.

Zhao Gang felt as if his whole body was bound by ropes, and before him appeared a woman dressed in black with black hair.

The woman’s appearance was grotesque, resembling a toad, her hands like dry twigs.

With her left hand, she held Zhao Gang, whose eyes widened, seeing a white worm clutched between the woman’s fingers.

The worm was very plump, squirming as it crawled down Zhao Gang’s throat.
