152: Chapter 152 Speculation: The Stalker Appears!
Luo Qing watched Lu Qingyun's dashing retreating figure, her silver teeth grinding together with a clicking sound, her knuckles turning white from clenching her fists.
She only just realized that this bastard never intended to help these students treat their injuries from the very beginning!
"Treat your own injuries" was clearly just an excuse because he found it troublesome and was too lazy to lift a finger!
"I'm so pissed off!"
Luo Qing took a deep breath, suppressing the raging anger in her chest.
She had wanted to argue with Lu Qingyun, but saw him leave directly, showing no intention of dragging out the class.
She didn't chase after him, but instead turned to look at Sima Lan and Luo Qingxue, whose faces were equally pale, her tone filled with a mix of lingering fear and concern: "Are you two okay?"
"I'm okay... just in a lot of pain all over." Sima Lan reattached her broken arm and said with lingering fear, "Just now, I completely lost control of my body. My mind was filled with nothing but the thought of killing the opponent. It was terrifying."
Luo Qingxue also nodded gently, a trace of fear still lingering in her cold eyes: "I couldn't even muster a single thought of resistance. I have no idea when I was caught in his trap. And... the task he assigned was too terrifying and perverted..."
"Terrifying is an understatement." Luo Qing sighed and said with a grave expression, "The perverted male teacher I told you about before, the one I told you to be wary of, is him!"
"What?!"
Sima Lan and Luo Qingxue exclaimed simultaneously, their faces full of disbelief.
"It's him." Luo Qing gritted her teeth and said, "I noticed something wrong with his gaze before; he's always staring at the female students in the school. Before class today, I even saw him staring straight at you two. I thought he had some twisted intentions toward you, so I specifically came over to warn you."
"I didn't expect him to be not only a pervert but also a madman! A course that treats heart-digging and lung-ripping as teaching content is simply not something a normal person could teach!"
The more Luo Qing spoke, the angrier she became, and her tone grew hurried: "This course is too dangerous. You two need to go to the Academic Affairs Office and apply to drop the course immediately, don't delay for even a moment! I suspect he might come up with even more outrageous assessment methods next. If someone actually dies, it will be too late for regrets."
"Mm-hmm, we'll go drop it as soon as class ends!"
Sima Lan nodded quickly. Just recalling the scene of being ganged up on and having her heart and lungs ripped out made her skin crawl; how could she dare to take this course again?
Luo Qingxue also said without hesitation: "I'm dropping it too. Whoever wants to take this course can go ahead."
Seeing that both had agreed, Luo Qing nodded with satisfaction: "Alright, you two go treat your injuries first. I'm going to the Academic Affairs Office now to report what happened today to the leadership. Even if there were no casualties, such an outrageous course must absolutely not continue!"
After speaking, Luo Qing glared fiercely in the direction where Lu Qingyun had left, turned around, and walked quickly out of the martial arts room.
Inside the martial arts room, the remaining students were in an uproar.
"Dig out our own internal organs? And record a video for inspection? Is this something a human would do!"
"I was almost stabbed to death just now, and my legs are still weak. I am absolutely not taking this course anymore!"
"Drop the course! Must drop the course! Anyone who doesn't drop it is an idiot!"
"It's too terrifying. Every time I look at my chest now, I feel like my heart is about to jump out..."
Each of these proud children of heaven had faces full of fear and lingering terror, and they all pulled out their phones to start applying to drop the course on the academic system.
Not long after, the large martial arts room was left with only Sima Lan, Luo Qingxue, and Dong Dajin, who was still standing there in a daze.
The two walked over to Dong Dajin and couldn't help but feel worried seeing his pale face and dazed eyes.
"Dajin, are you okay?" Sima Lan asked cautiously, "That teacher was too much just now; he actually ripped your heart out directly. Did it leave any aftereffects?"
"Exactly, it was too much!" Luo Qingxue also said indignantly, "He doesn't value students' lives at all. Once we drop the course, we must jointly report him and get him expelled from the school!"
However, faced with their righteous indignation, Dong Dajin acted out of character; instead of complaining along with them as usual, he just stood there silently.
He slowly reached out and gently placed his hand on his chest.
Thump—thump—!
His heart was beating with an extremely powerful rhythm, and waves of immense Qi and Blood Power were continuously surging from his heart, flowing through the meridians of his entire body.
Not only was there no discomfort, but on the contrary... it was even stronger!
Because his cultivation had reached... the Fifth Level of Xiantian!
In the time it took to have his heart replaced, his cultivation had actually surged by two minor realms!
This speed of improvement was faster than riding a rocket!
Although the process was indeed bloody and painful, and almost scared him to death, these tangible benefits were absolutely real.
Moreover... Dong Dajin's brows furrowed slightly, and a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes.
The tone of that Teacher Chen just now, and that sleazy vibe of his—pretending to be innocent despite clearly crushing everyone with his strength—why did it feel more and more familiar the more he thought about it?
And this ultimate control over flesh and blood, along with that aura that made people feel fear from the marrow of their bones...
Plus, the course related to the evil cult...
A figure suddenly emerged in his mind.
Dong Dajin's eyes lit up instantly, and a smile unconsciously curled at the corners of his mouth.
Could it be...
He didn't voice this discovery, but quietly withdrew his hand and grinned at the two who were still standing up for him: "I'm fine, I'm doing great! I was just a bit scared earlier, but I've recovered now."
"Are you really okay?" Sima Lan was still a bit worried.
"I'm really fine!" Dong Dajin patted his chest and said nonchalantly, "Let's go, let's go eat, it's my treat! I expended too much energy just now, I need to replenish!"
After speaking, he walked out of the martial arts room first, but at the moment he turned around, a hint of realization and excitement flashed in his eyes.
...
On the other side, when Luo Qing walked out of the Academic Affairs Office, the look of anger on her face had not diminished in the slightest.
"Pervert!"
Luo Qing cursed under her breath and reached out to touch her left chest.
The wound there had completely healed, but it had left a hideous scar that felt uneven and was particularly jarring to the touch.
"Bastard! Chen Luo! I'm not done with you!"
The more Luo Qing thought about it, the angrier she became; she raised her foot and kicked a pebble by the roadside hard into the nearby Cheng Lake.
"Splash!"
The pebble fell into the water, splashing ripples and startling a flock of birds in the trees by the lake.
And what she didn't know was that, in the shadows, a pair of eyes was quietly watching her every move.
Lu Qingyun, with a blade of grass in his mouth, lay on a tree trunk, swinging his legs in boredom.
"Who would have thought, who would have thought, that one day I, Lu Qingyun, would end up becoming a stalker again."
He muttered silently in his heart.
With his current Divine Intent Level cultivation, combined with the "Stealth" talent he had previously obtained from a beast core, let alone a martial artist like Luo Qing at the Yukong Realm, Seventh Stage, even an average early-stage Divine Intent expert wouldn't be able to detect his trail.
"Interesting. When I first saw her this morning, there was clearly not a trace of high-level energy fluctuation on her."
Lu Qingyun's fingers tapped lightly on the tree trunk, his eyes becoming sharp.
"In other words, in the few short hours between when she parted ways with me in the morning and when class started in the afternoon, she went somewhere and came into contact with energy that shares the same source as the heavenly demon stone."
"This kind of high-level energy cannot be found just anywhere. Since she has been there once, she will definitely go again."
Lu Qingyun jumped down from the tree and followed silently behind Luo Qing.
"By following her, I will surely find the whereabouts of the heavenly demon stone."
"Sigh—well, stalking it is. It's not like I haven't done this kind of thing in my past life."
