The moment the illusion was lifted, Xu Yinian staggered and almost fell to the ground.

After returning to reality, the numerous wounds on his body disappeared, but his spirit was extremely exhausted. He barely stood firm on his knees, and then heard a heavy sound of his body hitting the ground.

A few meters away, the red-eyed phantom fell heavily to the ground. Before he died, he strangled his neck with both hands, and his face turned the color of pig liver due to poor breathing.

Xu Yinian looked at the body of the phantom demon with some confusion. Someone ran over to help him.

"Are you okay?" Chen Ran asked.

"I'll help you heal!" Su Tang hurriedly activated his special ability.

Xu Yinian shook his head.

"There are no flesh wounds." He really didn't have the energy to speak, but Su Tang and Chen Ran acted as if he was going to die in the next second. They were holding him on the left and right, while Su Tang hurriedly treated him for non-existent injuries.

Xu Yinian was very uncomfortable with the wound: "What are you two doing? I'm not disabled..."

There were countless casualties in the auction hall. The monsters who had somehow managed to save their lives were all staring in the same direction in fear, unable to guess when this evil god would attack again. The puppet string in Yu Huai's hand was connected to the bodies of hundreds of phantom monsters.

In order to save his life, he glanced at Xu Yinian's chaotic battle formation, and casually released his powers. All the phantom demons present fell to the ground, their lives and deaths unknown.

"…………"

The monsters looked at each other and did not dare to make a sound.

The exorcist from Qihai Branch was originally guarding the door, but when he saw that the situation was not going well and was about to flee, the four doors of the auction hall were suddenly pushed open from the outside at the same time.

A large number of demon exterminators in white uniforms surrounded the door, with the bureau's logo embroidered on the chests of their uniforms. The young man leading the team had a handsome and enchanting face, and his long blond hair shone under the light. He was a typical demon clan.

feature.

Half-demon Hara Mu, the vice-principal of Maple Bridge College.

Recognizing that Yuan Mu was personally leading the team, several demon slayers from the Qihai branch almost fainted. Yuan Mu has lived for hundreds of years, and most of the demon slayers present have been his students.

"We received news that the phantom demon clan illegally held an underground auction, and the Qihai branch refused to provide help to our students." Yuan Mu smiled kindly and faced one of the demon exterminators, "Is this true?"

The face of the person being questioned was uglier than crying: "Teacher Yuan... No, no, Mr. Yuan! I don't know much about the situation. I am just here to maintain order. We have subdued some phantom demons and are preparing to seek instructions from our superiors.

.”

"In this case," Yuan Mu nodded and gestured to the large white uniform behind him, "If you don't understand anything, just ask the General Administration directly for instructions."

"..."

"Auctioning humans and monsters, smuggling prohibited items, dereliction of duty... Do you know how many years of crimes these add up to? It's enough for you to squat in the Black Tower for the next life! The premise is that you can still survive after being tried!" Every time!

When he mentioned the last crime, Yuan Mu's expression became more ferocious, and the demon slayer in Qihai City turned pale when he yelled at him.

After Yuan Mu finished speaking, he returned to his previous gentle tone: "As an outstanding graduate of the college, I have forgotten all the oaths I made. The teacher is very disappointed with you."

A large number of demon exterminators from the General Administration followed Yuan Mu into the room. The frightened monsters felt the warmth of the spring breeze for the first time when the Demon Exterminator Bureau arrived. Most of these monsters were captured by the organizers for no reason and were used as auction items. The General Administration needed to deal with them.

They were registering their identities, but there was a monster on the way. They were frightened: "Comrades from the General Administration, can you guarantee our personal safety?"

"Of course," the demon slayer said with a smile, "Don't worry, we have controlled most of the phantom demons."

"No, no, let's not talk about this. Did you see it over there? Yu Huai!" The monster whispered like a thief, "You guys keep an eye on it, mainly to protect Xu Yinian's personal safety! You just came in and you don't know,

Yu Huai really doesn’t blink when he kills someone!”

"..."

Yuan Mu glanced around the room and walked towards the three students staying together.

"Thank you for your hard work." He looked at Xu Yinian in the middle, "On your side, your courage has only increased after leaving the academy. You dare to act alone in such situations... Do you rely on someone to clean up the mess for you?"

When Yuan Mu spoke, Ruoyouruowu glanced in the direction of Yu Huai, Chen Ran had a strange expression, Su Tang opened his eyes wide, and couldn't believe that the vice principal actually took the lead in taking the blood sugar test. Only Xu Yinian didn't hear what was going on, and said feebly:

"Thank you. It will be better if you come earlier next time."

Yuan Mu was so amused by him. Just when he was about to tease him a few words, Yu Huai said coolly: "You are overthinking. He never thinks about how he will end up when doing things, and he only cares about the beginning and not the end."

Xu Yinian turned his head and glared at Yu Huai. As if he found this scene very interesting, Yuan Mu said with a smile: "Speaking of this, I have to thank you. If it weren't for your help, the matter would not have been solved so easily... But this auction

It seems to have nothing to do with you, Yu Huai?"

Looking at Yu's mother's former best friend, Yu Huai said helplessly: "If you have anything to do, just tell me."

Yuan Mu smiled and said nothing, pointing to the empty entrance and exit with his eyes: "Just in time, he is here too."

There was some commotion at the door, and it seemed that someone was approaching the auction hall. The demon clan has always been unruly, and most of the phantom demons did not show any shyness even when they were put in chains by the Demon Slayer Bureau. However, after seeing the figure at the door, many hands were stained.

The bloody phantom lowered its head anxiously.

"Sorry, I'm late."

"No," Yuan Mu said, "You came just in time, we haven't started talking about business yet."

"While I was preparing for the auction during the day, someone in the family was preparing for the underground auction at the same time. In the end, the Demon Slayer Bureau and the Academy needed to come forward. I was derelict in my duty." Hua Hengjing walked along and saw the arrest.

"Are you taking them to prison? Please leave two of them for me. We also need to investigate the people involved...it's just the two of you."

The two phantom demons casually picked by Hua Hengjing were both stunned, and the smarter one begged for mercy: "Master, please change someone else! I don't know anything, you take the lead back! He is the only one who has received the message from the elders."

The one ordered by the court!”

"You reminded me," Hua Hengjing ordered the subordinates beside him, "find the leader."

"Already dead." Hua Hengjing showed an unexpected look. Seeing this, Yu Huai asked more, "Do you mind?"

"Of course I don't mind, Boss Yu." Hua Hengjing reacted and smiled, then motioned to his subordinates, "Then let's take the two of them."

The two phantom demons were ashen when they saw this. They knew that they were in danger and clung to the ground with both hands. When they were dragged away, they even asked the Demon Slayer Bureau for help: "Please! Take me to the prison! I am willing to accept the trial!"

The struggling appearance of the phantom demon was really pitiful. The experienced demon exterminator shook his head at the newcomer who looked unbearable, and motioned him not to say anything.

Strictly speaking, Hua Hengjing's approach did not comply with the regulations, but although he was polite, he did not give the Demon Slayer Bureau a chance to refuse. In addition, the internal situation of the big family has always been complicated, and it was difficult for the Demon Slayer Bureau to intervene.

"We have initially determined that the underground auction is closely related to the Elder Council of the Illusory Demon Clan, and there are various matters that need to be investigated in the future." Yuan Mu spoke at this time, "Because two students died, the academy will work with the demon slayer.

The bureau jointly investigated this incident..."

"Two students died?" Xu Yinian frowned.

Besides Gu Xiaodong, anyone else died?

"A girl from your group died in the underground warehouse. There were many corpses piled there. It may be that the organizer used humans to perform blood sacrifices to meet the triggering conditions of some auction items." Yuan Mu sighed softly, "Her name is Jiang Qiuyue.

"

Xu Yinian opened his eyes wide, and Chen Ran also raised his head suddenly.

They almost said in unison: "How is it possible?!"

Yuan Mu motioned for them to explain. Chen Ran spoke quickly: "The last time Xu Yinian and I saw her was on the ground. She didn't have a pass, how could she come down alone?"

"How often have you seen her?"

"In the evening, she told us that there were two monsters acting suspiciously. We kidnapped them and got two passes from them. She stayed on the ground to wait for notification from the academy."

"Judging from the stiffness of the body, she should have died this morning."

"Illusion." Yu Huai said, "Someone is pretending to be her and wants to lure you down."

"..."

"You said before that you got the pass, do you still keep it?" Hua Hengjing asked.

Taking the pass from Xu Yinian, Hua Hengjing looked at it carefully: "There is something wrong with the pass you got, look at it."

He reached out and touched the lower left corner of the pass. The illusion covering the pass gradually faded away, leaving behind only a clean white card.

"Any phantom demon can see through this illusion. When you show this pass, you have become the organizer's target."

No wonder those guards attacked him and Chen Ran so quickly. It turned out that the secret was exposed from the beginning.

Xu Yinian clutched the card tightly without saying a word.

The next moment, the electric light suddenly gathered at his fingertips burned the white card to ashes. He looked at Yuan Mu: "Vice Principal, I want-"

Yuan Mu interrupted him directly: "If you don't want to, don't show that eagerness to try and get in the way."

Yu Huai was next to him, coolly finishing his attack: "Your mentality of 'you've fooled me from beginning to end, so I'll beat you with my own hands' is incorrect. It's not advisable to act on your own initiative."

Before Xu Yinian could refute, Yu Huai added: "If you think you are responsible for the accident that happened to your classmate... Are you the reincarnation of a Bodhisattva? You want to take all the blame on yourself."

"..." Xu Yinian became angry and said the eight-character mantra, "It's none of your business! There's a lot of nonsense!"

Su Tang took a breath of cold air, Chen Ran covered his face, Hua Hengjing watched with great interest, only Yuan Mu's expression remained unchanged: "Yu Huai is right, kids who haven't even passed the graduation exam can't even think about getting involved.

As for adults, why are you still here?"

Although their group was extremely unlucky to encounter a series of accidents, the result was that they could only fail the graduation examination. Chen Ran and Su Tang consciously turned around and left, except Xu Yinian.

He didn't move, and even said to Yuan Mu: "Don't worry about me, you can continue."

Yuan Mu gave him a funny look and turned his attention to Yu Huai: "As I said just now, the college and the Demon Slayer Bureau are joining forces, and Hua Hengjing will also provide help as much as possible. If you are interested in participating, the college will have full power.

You are responsible."

If you participate in the investigation on behalf of the college, all your actions will be justified.

Hua Hengjing hummed at the side and smiled: "I heard that the vice principal and Boss Yu have a very good relationship. The rumors are indeed true."
