Resisting temptation makes you stronger? I'm going to build a base and cultivate martial arts.

Around 6:00 AM, the white wolf had already run back to the management bureau.

Inside the management office, there was a sense of peace mixed with a hint of anxiety.

People dressed in white coats or dark green uniforms were running around.

There were even black robes and cloaks from the Southeast Asian region mixed in.

White Wolf stood at the door, looking somewhat bewildered.

It's been so long since I returned to Liancheng High School that I feel like the Management Bureau has become rusty.

He subconsciously took out his phone to ask Cen Feiyu about Lu Hao's situation, but stopped at the last moment.

According to the procedure, this task must undergo post-event review.

Now Cen Feiyu is the secretary of the post-event committee, and this incident involves things like stealing credit.

To avoid any appearance of impropriety, it's best not to communicate in advance.

After thinking for a moment, White Wolf simply ran back to Class 1 of the Yi Chou class and cultivated while waiting for class to begin.

Surprisingly, the entire Yichou class stayed here.

The first thing Bai Lang saw was Jing Xi sitting alone in the corner.

Unlike the previous quiet and aloof atmosphere.

She gives off the impression that she might suddenly turn violent and kill someone at any moment.

Meanwhile, Wu Xuan, Li Qi, and a group of other girls were gathered not far away, extremely anxious.

The boys were the first to see the white wolf.

"Holy crap! White Wolf, you're back?" The chubby Lu Kui was the first to stand up. "How's the battle going over there?"

Startled by the sound, the girls turned around in surprise and started chattering.

The white wolf felt as if a thousand ducks were quacking in his ears.

He took a step back and retreated into the doorway: "Mission accomplished. The strange mirror has been confiscated, and the principal has been arrested."

Have you seen Lu Hao?

Jingxi's voice was low, but it instantly silenced the entire class.

Her eyes burned with fury as she looked at him: "What did he do?"

"Forget it! Lu Hao's case is just a minor one!" White Wolf reassured them repeatedly. "Everyone has all the evidence of what they did, so there's no need to worry about having your credit stolen."

But Jingxi still couldn't let it go.

Although Bai Lang didn't say it explicitly, she had already guessed what Lu Hao was going to do.

The aura seemed to dissipate suddenly, and Jingxi apologized to Bailang with great guilt: "I'm sorry, if Lu Hao hadn't caught my whereabouts, this mission could have ended perfectly."

"Sigh, a higher rank can have a crushing effect. We've done pretty well to get by, don't overthink it."

The white wolf sighed.

He discovered that Jingxi had a bit of a perfectionist streak, and probably hadn't experienced much setback growing up.

Otherwise, she wouldn't still be so sullen when everyone else is happy.

But this mentality can only be worn down by being abused a lot, and even White Wolf can't change it.

He glanced at Jing Xi, thought for a moment, and then simply sat down next to her and began to recount what had happened earlier to everyone.

Or you could say it's the Eight Trigrams.

"...That mirror is really eerie. I wonder how the researchers in the bureau will study it."

White Wolf still feels terrified.

This thing has such a wide attack range that if you don't know beforehand, you'll be instantly killed if someone targets you.

The girls blushed and remained silent.

The boys looked at each other and chuckled.

They didn't see the distorted side; they just found it hilarious.

After the white wolf finished speaking, the students began to tell their own stories.

In short, Lu Hao had his eye on Jing Xi beforehand, intercepted her just before the operation, and used his identity to force her to hand over her phone. He then tricked the entire Yi Chou class into coming over, confiscated her phone, and placed her under semi-house arrest in the class.

The white wolf frowned.

This behavior clearly crosses the line.

Has Lu Hao hooked up with some high-ranking leader?

So brazen?

Li Qi added, "Little Wolf, it's a good thing you didn't clash with Lu Hao. The sword you saw should be the one passed down in Instructor Lu Xun's family. I wonder how much Lu Hao paid to borrow it..."

"Wait!" White Wolf exclaimed, startled. "Isn't the sword Lu Hao's own? Was it borrowed?"

"Of course!" Li Qi frowned. "Anyone who's been in the Administration Bureau for a while knows that. Although Instructor Lu Xun isn't good with a sword, he gets sunbathed every day!"

White Wolf glanced at the other students.

Everyone nodded in agreement as if it were the most natural thing in the world.

"Is it really necessary to go to such lengths?"

The white wolf felt increasingly uneasy.

If it were Lu Hao's own family, it would be fine; what difference would it make what?

Is it really necessary to go to great lengths to borrow a divine sword?

"wrong!"

It was as if a bolt of lightning flashed through the white wolf's mind.

Numerous clues connect with the plots of countless movies I've seen in my past life.

"Damn it, is Lu Hao going to run away?" White Wolf stood up.

"What the hell?" Everyone was completely bewildered.

"That can't be, right?" Lu Kui slapped his face as if he'd been struck by lightning. "Lu Hao's whole family is at the Bureau! Why is he here?"

"I don't know. Let me ask first."

At this moment, Bai Lang didn't care about avoiding suspicion and made a phone call to Cen Feiyu.

The call was answered after only two beeps.

"Hey! Has Lu Hao come back to settle the mission?" White Wolf asked urgently.

"I haven't received the message! Wait a minute, let me ask someone else."

Cen Feiyu did not question it and immediately began looking for people.

A moment later, he returned: "I haven't seen them anywhere, from the gatekeepers to the special channels... What happened?"

White Wolf briefly explained his analysis: "...Even the escape route is ready-made. The principal has arranged everything...After the transaction, we'll immediately escape to the North Campus."

Cen Feiyu realized the urgency of the situation: "I'll take over this matter. Send me all the records."

After finally finishing the operation, White Wolf put down the phone and looked at his classmates.

Everyone heard it.

But everyone's head was buzzing.

Even though they had entered the Cultivator Administration Bureau, they were still just college students and couldn't imagine this situation at all.

Several people muttered repeatedly, "It can't be that bad, can it?"

Only Ji Huaiguang suddenly sighed, "If this is true, then it would be the first case of a cultivator defecting in history."

Not long after, Teacher Yu Ce came in.

He acted as if nothing had happened and continued lecturing as usual.

……

The announcement was released before noon.

Lu Hao is suspected of defection and is now being pursued throughout the city by the Administration Bureau.

While it's described as a suspected case, most people have already reached a consensus.

News kept coming from the front lines, and it was said that the bodies of Principal Ning Xiao and students from Class Bingzi had been discovered.

They only had one sword wound on their bodies.

Either seal their throat or pierce their heart.

There was also a mirror at the scene, but after researchers dug up all the debris and soil within a 300-meter radius of the site and pieced them back together, they found that a perfectly circular piece the size of a coin in the center was missing.

Fortunately, it was discovered early, and with solid information, the escape route of the Peking University district was blocked in advance, so Lu Hao should not have escaped yet.

But the administration remained on edge.

Lu Hao's family members have been placed under house arrest.

The owner of the sword, Lu Xun, patrolled outside the Lu family compound with red eyes, as if he were about to pounce in and kill someone at any moment.

The situation was becoming extremely urgent.

Suddenly, three guards entered the classroom and invited the white wolf over.

They said, "The Ministry of the Interior has contacted the richest man in the Southeast Asia region. He is willing to provide more information, but his condition is that he meets with White Wolf."
