123: Chapter 123 Face Change

Xing Yaoyan tilted her head slightly to look at the crowd, her eyes still lingering with a faint red glow full of killing intent.

Almost everyone who inadvertently met her gaze swallowed secretly.

This was not only because of the powerful Demonic Power she radiated, but also because of the corpse of the Tier 4 Esper in front of her.

"Tier 4... just like that, killed by a single punch from her..."

"Isn't she a Tier 3 Yao Race? This isn't scientific..."

Fear, boundless fear suddenly rose in everyone's hearts.

Moreover, this girl from the Yao Race had actually killed someone in the classroom, in full view of everyone. Even if Yun Feng was rude first, this was really...

Most of the people present had never seen blood; how could they bear to look at the terrifying scene before them?

"Bang! Thud!"

Yun Feng's corpse slowly fell to the ground.

"Ugh~"

As if a switch had been triggered, the sounds of retching erupted one after another in the classroom...

Looking at the students below with their uncertain expressions, Xing Yaoyan felt no emotional fluctuation.

It was not her first time killing someone, and to be honest, she hadn't felt anything the first time she killed either...

Suddenly, her gaze lingered on a certain figure for a second or two, and then she quickly turned her head away in a slight panic.

"This guy... is he supporting me..."

It turned out that she saw Qian Mo giving her a thumbs-up from below, smiling, looking almost completely out of place with the other students.

"Is he not afraid of me..."

Xing Yaoyan's thoughts were very complex.

Originally, she thought that as long as she showed her ferocious Yao nature, the young man would fear her like the others and eventually give up automatically. She didn't expect that he wouldn't care at all, and would even secretly express his support for her.

"To pick me up, you are really going all out..."

"Young Miss Xing Yan..."

Professor Zheng Buxie's words came from behind her, his tone filled with embarrassment.

"Elder Zheng... he brought this on himself."

Xing Yaoyan turned around, her tone indifferent. It was as if she hadn't just killed a person, but an eyesore of a bug.

"I know, but setting aside the preconditions, you have killed someone... This is the Human Alliance, not the Kingdom of Myriad Demons. Killing someone, especially a Tier 4 Esper, means going to court and paying with your life..."

Professor Zheng Buxie's brows were almost knitted together, and he sighed as he spoke.

"And as a teacher at the Longxiang Academy, seeing a student die in front of me, I am also very heartbroken. Moreover, he was a member of the Yun Family, the family of my good friend, Yun Long..."

At the same time, a metal sphere emitting terrifying power fluctuations suddenly appeared in his hand. The terrifying oppressive feeling it radiated was far stronger than what the girl had emitted earlier.

"Meow! Qian Mo, what should we do! Sister Yan seems to be in danger, this old man might be planning something against her!"

Seeing Professor Zheng Buxie's unusual movement, Ying Linglong and Leng Xiaoyue stood up subconsciously, preparing to go up and help.

"Wait."

The two Yao turned back and were instantly surprised to find that the young man had a leisurely smile on his face, as if he wasn't worried about the commotion on the stage at all.

"Sister Yan was right... I knew you weren't a good person..."

Ying Linglong muttered softly, not wanting to pay attention to the young man behind her anymore.

"How can Miss Linglong say that..."

Qian Mo was a bit speechless.

He thought to himself: This girl's criteria for judging bad people are so arbitrary; anyone who isn't good to your Sister Yan is a bad person, right?

"The two of you, keep calm and don't be impatient, Young Miss Xing Yan is fine."

Huh?

Hearing his words, the two Yao, who were originally ready to go, turned back in confusion again.

And Qian Mo didn't hide anything anymore and said directly:

"Look, although Elder Zheng has a strong Aura, he didn't choose to strike first while Young Miss Xing Yan is in a bad state. And look at his hands... they are extremely steady, which shows that his heart is very calm, and he has absolutely no intention of fighting..."

"Meow, but this is just your one-sided story. I only believe in my perception of danger, I don't believe in your so-called subjective speculation."

Ying Linglong was extremely skeptical of the young man's words.

Looking at the excited little cat girl, Qian Mo suddenly had an idea. He spoke with confidence:

"How about this, you two stay here and don't move. I'll make a bet with you, Miss Linglong, on whether Elder Zheng will change his face in a moment."

"If I lose, I will do my best to help your Sister Yan escape danger. I might as well tell you, I am the closed-door Disciple of one of the Human Alliance leaders, Elder Qian. I definitely have a say."

"Then what if you win?"

"Very simple, secretly tell me on Spirit Chat about your Sister Yan's various preferences that you know, as well as the ins and outs of how you met..."

"Meow! The second condition is not okay!"

"Alright, alright, then we'll delete the second one, the first one is fine."

Qian Mo quickly changed his words, thinking to himself that it would take some time to verify the thought in his heart...

Weighing the pros and cons, Ying Linglong found that making this bet with the young man didn't seem to matter; as long as she could ensure Sister Yan's safety, that was enough...

"Meow! I'll bet."

"Uh... Ying Linglong, did you ask me? You just agreed like that?"

Leng Xiaoyue felt like an outsider.

"Meow, you are not important... Oh, right! You must keep it a secret for me, you cannot let her know about this!"

"Uh..."

Looking at Ying Linglong's waving little fist, Leng Xiaoyue was somewhat helpless for a moment. Sigh, sure enough, once she left Sister Yan, the familiar little devil was back...

"Haha... Alright, you two, let's wait and see."

At this moment on the podium.

Professor Zheng Buxie had been maintaining his confrontational posture for a while. But what he was thinking about in his mind was Yun Feng's disrespect towards him.

The reason he didn't want to provoke a scion of a noble family like Yun Feng before was, first, he couldn't do anything about him, and second, he might cause him trouble in the future and disrupt his life rhythm.

But just because he didn't want to cause trouble didn't mean he was afraid of trouble.

Originally, he had just been thinking about how to remind Young Miss Xing Yan later to be careful of Yun Feng's revenge, but he didn't expect this guy to actually die. That was really... great!

"Elder Zheng, I promise I'll cooperate, okay? Don't just stand here and waste time with me..."

The corners of the girl's mouth twitched slightly, and she thought to herself: Could you please stop pretending? My malice perception hasn't detected any intention from you to attack me. If you have any requests, just say them quickly!

"Ahem... although killing definitely requires paying a price. However..."

Suddenly, Professor Zheng Buxie pulled out a set of paper documents out of thin air.

"As long as you sign this, become my assistant, you will enjoy a certain degree of immunity. You only need to pay a small fine. Don't worry, you'll just be a figurehead. Just do some experiments with me when you have time, that's all."

Professor Zheng Buxie spoke very quickly.

"Uh... but..."

Xing Yaoyan just wanted to say: But I am a Yao, isn't it a bit inappropriate for me to go with you to work on major scientific research projects related to the country?

But Professor Zheng Buxie seemed to think she was going to refuse, so he quickly added:

"Actually, I can even pay the fine for you first. As long as you sign, and leave me a phone number, you can leave the subsequent matters to me, you don't need to intervene!"

The students below looked at the professor whose tone was gradually becoming humble, feeling a bit unreal.

Elder Zheng! Where is your backbone as a top national talent?

If Professor Zheng Buxie could hear their words, he would definitely say: A bunch of idiots, science has no borders, the capable are teachers. For the sake of scientific truth, you could even ask me to kneel before her!
