Luo Chuan used the Xuan Tian Step to traverse the void at an extremely fast speed.

At the same time, his eyes flashed like lightning as he quickly searched his surroundings for any suspicious figures.

Soon, a suspicious figure wearing a hooded jacket came into Luo Chuan's view.

The other party seemed to have also noticed Luo Chuan, and actually used a set of impressive movement techniques to suddenly accelerate and dive deeper into the alley.

"Trying to escape?"

Luo Chuan curled the corners of his mouth.

He stepped into thin air, and then suddenly pushed off with all his might.

call out--

In a mere instant, Luo Chuan transformed into a beam of divine light and shot out, transcending the constraints of the void, arriving behind the hooded man in the blink of an eye.

The hooded man hadn't expected Luo Chuan to be so fast.

He turned back to look at Luo Chuan with some surprise.

Luo Chuan had already raised his hand.

"Ether Domination - Sword Rain".

Eighteen ether swords coalesced and fell like a storm.

"wind."

Suddenly, the hooded man also raised his hand.

wow——

A gust of wind howled out, blowing up his clothes and turning into a tornado that deflected Luo Chuan's ethereal sword.

"They actually blocked it?"

Luo Chuan was slightly surprised.

Being able to block an attack from Ether Domination means that the opponent's wind control talent is at least S-level.

But that's all.

Luo Chuan's gaze sharpened, and he raised his sword finger.

"Heavenly Lock Sword Formation - Mountain Suppression".

At his command, eighteen aether swords arrayed themselves, transforming into a majestic mountain that stood firm against the storm.

Rumble!

Mountains crumbled and the world turned upside down.

The tornado barrier shattered instantly, but the might of the sacred mountain remained undiminished, pressing down on the hooded man with overwhelming force.

Seeing the overwhelming force of the sword formation, it was clear that they could not defeat it by force.

The hooded man uttered another word.

"moon."

whisper.

A soft sound came from the breeze.

The hooded man was bathed in a soft, radiant moonlight, and then his entire body transformed into countless points of light and vanished.

The twinkling starlight broke free from Zhenyue's domain and reconverged hundreds of meters away.

The hooded figure reappeared.

However, before he could make a move, a sword gleaming with a dark light was already pressed against his throat.

"it's over."

Luo Chuan said.

He taught others about moonlight, experienced his own moonlight, and even extinguished his moonlight not long ago.

No one understands moonlight better than him.

"It seems to be over."

The hooded man sighed helplessly.

Upon hearing this, Luo Chuan's eyes widened slightly.

That sound...

Without Luo Chuan's confirmation, the other party took the initiative to lift her hood, revealing a beautiful and delicate face.

"Is this your true strength? It's terrifyingly powerful, leaving me completely helpless."

Wen Zhinian smiled sweetly.

"Your talent isn't just summoning ice and snow, but also wind and moon?"

Luo Chuan raised his eyebrows slightly.

He clearly remembered that during a training session, Wen Zhinian summoned a sky full of ice and snow during her battle with Lu Zhiyao, and drove Lu Zhiyao off the stage in less than two minutes.

No other innate abilities were used.

"Oh dear, didn't you know? My talent isn't [Ice and Snow], but [Wind, Flowers, Snow and Moon]."

Wen Zhinian's eyebrows and eyes were curved, like a pair of crescent moons.

Being able to rank third in her grade at Imperial University, her talent naturally surpasses that of an S-level student.

"It doesn't matter if your talent is used for debauchery, the problem is why you dress like this and then spy on my classmates."

Luo Chuan stated frankly.

"Spying on your classmates?"

Wen Zhinian tilted her head in confusion.

"You seem to have misunderstood. I wasn't spying on anyone. I just happened to spot a suspicious person and, out of curiosity, followed them here, only to be stopped by you."

"So what's the meaning behind your outfit?"

"Huh? Oh, I see. I get it now, hehe..."

Wen Zhinian slightly raised her hands and looked at the hooded jacket she was wearing.

She couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle softly.

"This was actually to prevent my younger sisters from finding out."

"You may not know this, but I'm very popular at Imperial University. It would be troublesome if I were recognized on the street, so I often dress up to cover my tracks when I go out."

"For example, Xiaoling, who came with me this time, really likes to stay by my side, so if I want to go out by myself, I can only wear this coat."

"I'm truly sorry for causing you to misunderstand."

Wen Zhinian clasped her hands together and apologized to Luo Chuan.

"If you feel that's not enough, let me treat you to a cup of milk tea as an apology."

"……No."

Luo Chuan scrutinized Wen Zhinian for a while before finally dispelling the Ether Sword in his hand.

"More than anything, I'd like to know if there really aren't any tomboyish girls at Imperial University? I'd guess she's short-haired, always grinning, rude, and unhygienic."

"Why are you so fixated on finding someone like this? Is she your friend?"

Wen Zhinian looked at Luo Chuan with a puzzled expression.

After thinking for a moment, she answered Luo Chuan's question.

"If you could provide the name, I might be able to answer. Based on your description alone, I know girls with short hair, and I know girls with a tomboyish personality, but I don't know any girls who are rude and sloppy."

"..."

Luo Chuan was speechless.

To be honest, his understanding of Xu Xiaojin's friends was limited to Xu Xiaojin's descriptions and photos of them when they were young.

If she had to say, Hsu Hsiao-chin had mentioned the other person's nickname a long time ago.

It seems to be called...

"Xiao Kong?"

"Hmm? You mean that girl's name?"

Wen Zhinian blinked.

She pressed her fingers to her cheek, pondered for a while, and then shook her head.

"It's a pity, I can't remember any girl named Xiao Kong at Imperial University."

"Could I have guessed wrong?"

Luo Chuan was also a little unsure after hearing Wen Zhinian's words.

After all, the system only issued a task and never mentioned that Xiao Kong was at Imperial University.

These are all Luo Chuan's own speculations.

Just then, Wen Zhinian seemed to notice something and put her hood back on.

"Xiao Ling will be here soon. If there are no other issues, let's part ways here."

Wen Zhinian paused, then smiled brightly and waved to Luo Chuan.

Goodbye, Luo Chuan.

After she finished speaking, her body turned into moonlight and vanished.

Shortly after she left, Luo Chuan also saw the girl from Imperial University named Xiao Ling coming this way.

Seeing this, Luo Chuan also used the Xuan Tian Ta Xu Step and disappeared from the spot.

Although Wen Zhinian's words were watertight and almost flawless.

However, Luo Chuan still discovered that Wen Zhinian's arrival in this area was definitely not as easy as she had explained.

The other party is definitely hiding something.

……

Back at Xu Xiaojin's house, Luo Chuan revealed all the findings of his investigation.

Xu Xiaojin was greatly surprised by Wen Zhinian's appearance, but she still told Luo Chuan with certainty.

"The aura I sensed this morning is consistent with the aura I sensed not long ago."

In other words, regardless of whether it was Wen Zhinian or not, Xu Xiaojin was undoubtedly being targeted by someone.

As for the other party's purpose, Luo Chuan guessed that it was Xu Xiaojin's talent that caused the trouble.

Although the talent's strength is only C-level.

However, the mechanism of the ability itself is extremely extraordinary.

Therefore, for Xu Xiaojin's personal safety, Luo Chuan had no choice but to contact Teacher Xiaolin to see if she had any ideas.

"Is Xiao Jin in danger?"

After hearing about Xu Xiaojin's situation from Luo Chuan, Ms. Kobayashi took it very seriously.

Unlike Luo Chuan, whose abilities are unfathomable, Xu Xiaojin is definitely a support-type talent.

Their combat strength is rather average.

If it were truly necessary to target Xu Xiaojin, it wouldn't be particularly difficult.

"Given that the other party has not kidnapped Xu Xiaojin so far, I believe that at least for the time being, Xu Xiaojin is safe, and the other party does not intend to use force against her."

Luo Chuan told Ms. Kobayashi his reasoning.

You make a very good point.

Ms. Kobayashi agreed with Luo Chuan's point of view and then continued.

"Just in case, let Xiaojin travel with you for the next few days. If Xiaojin doesn't mind, you can stay at her house."

"Holy crap? Even if Xu Xiaojin doesn't mind, I do."

"You live alone in an apartment, what's there to mind? Besides, given the difference in your abilities compared to Xu Xiaojin, you're the one who's bullying her."

"...To be honest, I think you, Ms. Kobayashi, would be more suitable to handle this?"

"Huh? I've been running around doing all this for you, can't you help me out a bit?"

"..."

Remembering Ms. Kobayashi's outburst in the club activity room not long ago, Luo Chuan found it hard to refuse.

"Anyway, I'll contact the Super Management Bureau first. Luo Chuan, Xiao Jin is in your care. Take good care of the team leader."

Teacher Lin gave Luo Chuan several instructions before hanging up the phone.

"..."

Luo Chuan glanced at his phone, then turned his gaze to Xu Xiaojin, who seemed somewhat at a loss.

"You heard what Ms. Kobayashi said, right? So what did you say?"

Xu Xiaojin hesitated for a long time, clutching the hem of her clothes with both hands, her head down, her glasses reflecting a white light.

"If it were you... I... I have spare rooms at home..."
