This is bloodline suppression.

In terms of rank, Lu Tingxue's Ice Ape bloodline is far inferior to that of the Blood Demon clan from Hell. When Qi Lin activated the Blood Demon power last night, he emitted a true Hellish Blood Demon aura, which caused Lu Tingxue's Ice Ape bloodline to be strongly suppressed.

This situation proves two things.

①The Blood Demon Power within Qi Lin's body is of a very high level.

② Lu Tingxue's control over her demon bloodline was actually quite rudimentary. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been unable to even forcibly activate her demon bloodline. In fact, this should be a basic skill for demon warriors. Otherwise, if she encountered someone who could suppress her bloodline, she wouldn't be able to transform. How would she survive in the future?

Anyway,

In the surveillance footage, Qi Lin's Blood Demon Power was activated, and he instantly rushed in front of Lu Tingxue.

"what!!!"

Upon seeing this, Lu Tingxue immediately let out a terrified scream.

But Qi Lin, who had lost his mind, ignored her completely. He grabbed her neck with one hand, lifted the girl into the air, and then flung her to the ground. At the same time, his sharp nails scratched the skin on her neck.

A few drops of scarlet blood were spilled on the floor.

Seeing this, Qi Lin roared and pulled Lu Tingxue into his arms, then opened his mouth and bit down hard on her neck.

However, it didn't actually bite into it in the end.

Because Qi Lin regained his senses at the last moment, he suddenly raised his head, took several steps back, and slammed his head heavily against the wall. Then, he raised his hand and conjured an ice spike, which he then plunged into his thigh, using the pain to bring him back to his senses...

Qi Lin clearly remembers the content of the video that followed.

Finally, not long after he left the lab, Lu Tingxue got up from the ground, touched the blood on her neck, and then took out her phone as if she was making a call.

The surveillance video ends here.

"A classic case of extraordinary loss of control."

Li Qiuman took the tablet back from Qi Lin and said calmly, "However, it's good that you finally came to your senses. Although you scratched Lu Tingxue's neck with your fingernails, you didn't actually bite her or suck her blood."

Besides, Lu Tingxue has already clearly stated that she won't hold you responsible, so the school won't notify the law enforcement bureau about last night's incident. You can rest assured... By the way, do you know why Lu Tingxue isn't going to hold you responsible?

"why?"

Qi Lin asked curiously.

"Because we share the same plight, or rather, we empathize with each other."

Li Qiuman leaned back on the sofa, scrolling through her tablet until she finally found a local news article from three years ago and showed it to Qi Lin.

This was an assault.

The one who caused the injury was Lu Tingxue.

Three years ago, she was in her third year of junior high school when she suddenly lost control and turned into an ice ape, using her claws to cut off another female classmate's right leg.

Both incidents resulted in injury and disability, but this incident was far more serious than Qi Lin crippling Thomas.

Because he did it in the slums late at night, he didn't make a big fuss.

Moreover, the law enforcement agency knew exactly what kind of person Thomas was. If Thomas hadn't signed the contract with the Pioneer Bureau, Zhou Yu and his group wouldn't have bothered with him.

However, Lu Tingxue's case is different.

First of all, both parties involved are children from wealthy neighborhoods, which is a completely different concept from him and Thomas, who are from impoverished areas.

The law enforcement agency ignored the poor neighborhoods, but was quite diligent in dealing with the wealthy neighborhoods.

Secondly, the incident occurred at a school, and it happened during the school's anniversary celebration, so there were many people gathered there. After the incident, various videos were immediately uploaded to the internet.

This is a classic example of "things getting out of hand".

The locals in Dawn City are basically aware of this.

But how to put it... if this happened to an ordinary person, it might be enough to cause her to be isolated in the academy, but the reality is that it does not affect Lu Tingxue's high popularity in Dawn Third Academy, and she has many friends.

reason?

Qi Lin felt it should be multifaceted.

In short, Lu Tingxue's incident three years ago was ultimately resolved privately.

As for the specifics of the negotiation, that's unknown. In any case, once the victim's letter of understanding was issued, the matter was considered closed.

The out-of-control incident was not intentional harm.

Under federal law, this level of extraordinary loss of control can completely absolve someone of liability if they can obtain a letter of forgiveness from the victim.

“I know about this.”

Qi Lin handed the tablet back to Li Qiuman across from him.

"Demon Envoy, Demon Warrior."

Li Qiuman took the tablet and said softly, "Both of your sequences are prone to 'extraordinary loss of control.' The former is due to the seduction of demons or the influence of demonic power, while the latter is due to the influence of demonic bloodlines within the body."

Lu Tingxue suffered greatly as a result.

She had lost control before, so she could empathize.

She knows very well that people like you sometimes do things against their will... I think that's why she forgives you unconditionally. After all, you're all in the same boat, and in many ways, you're both perpetrators and victims.

But in these situations, you can't always rely on the other person's forgiveness!

At this point, Li Qiuman's voice turned serious as she looked at Qi Lin with a stern expression. "This time it didn't cause any serious consequences, but what about next time?"

Qi Lin, the Blood Demon power within you has already begun to affect your life.

From now on, you must set aside one hour each day to recite the Meditation Mantra, and you must come to me monthly for a mental health assessment to ensure your mental state is stable.

"Is there anything more powerful than the 'Meditation Mantra'?" Qi Lin asked worriedly. "I'm afraid that one isn't strong enough."

"That's already very strong."

Li Qiuman stood up, walked to the coffee machine, and made coffee for herself and Qi Lin. "Alright, relax. I'm going to do an initial assessment of your mental state now. If everything is fine, you can go back to class."

"How will the evaluation be conducted?" Qi Lin asked curiously.

“Simply put, it’s a question-and-answer session.” Li Qiuman smiled slightly. “You can choose to lie, it doesn’t matter, because some of the questions you choose to lie about are also part of the evaluation. In short, you don’t need to consider anything. Whether you want to answer honestly or lie, it’s up to you.”

"Oh."

Qi Lin shifted his position, feeling somewhat uneasy.

Soon, Li Qiuman returned with two cups of coffee and handed one to Qi Lin.

Qi Lin took a sip.

It's incredibly bitter!

"Can I add sugar?" Qi Lin asked.

"Whatever, as long as you have your own candy, because I don't have any here."

Li Qiuman nodded slightly, then crossed her legs and started swiping on the tablet.

"Teacher, what are you doing?" Qi Lin couldn't help but ask.

“Fill out the assessment report based on your behavior,” Li Qiuman replied without turning her head.

"It's starting already?!" Qi Lin exclaimed in shock. "I just wanted a cup of coffee with sugar! What kind of assessment can be made from this?!"

"Alright, stop talking nonsense."

Li Qiuman looked at him calmly, "Sit down, now I'll ask you the first question."

"Suppose that after you regained consciousness last night, you found Lu Tingxue's corpse next to you, and your hands were covered in blood. What would you do in this situation? One, destroy the evidence. Two, flee to avoid punishment. Three, frame someone else."

"???"

"Don't I have a fourth option?"

"Of course, feel free to answer."

"..."

Chapter 42 Swordsmanship Training, Future Profession

The assessment ended half an hour later.

"So far, there don't seem to be any problems."

Li Qiuman sat on the sofa, scrolling through her tablet as she said, "Your mental state is still normal for now, but only for now. The influence of demonic power on demon wielders is usually long-term and subtle, so you must be vigilant... Okay, go back to class now."

"okay."

Qi Lin stood up, but when he reached the door, he couldn't help but turn back to look at the psychologist and hesitated, saying, "Teacher, I think Lu Tingxue's control over the demon bloodline in her body seems a bit too low. Last night, when my demon blood aura suppressed her, she couldn't even transform. This is enough to prove that her control over the Ice Ape bloodline is quite superficial."

What are you trying to say?

Li Qiuman put down the tablet and slightly raised her eyes.

"As far as I know, the degree of control over the demon bloodline will affect the extent to which the demon warrior's mind is influenced by the demon bloodline."

Qi Lin thought for a moment and said in a deep voice, "Given Lu Tingxue's current state, I think she is in great danger. Her control over the Ice Ape bloodline is too low. If the demon bloodline were to take effect one day and affect her mental state, I'm afraid she would be powerless to resist and would fall into madness in an instant."

"You don't need to worry about children from wealthy families."

Li Qiuman shook her head and then said, "Have you heard of the 'Hill Mental Healing Special Drug - Type 7' that costs 30 yuan a bottle? Ever since the out-of-control incident three years ago, Lu Tingxue has been taking this stuff like calcium tablets after meals every day, so don't worry, even if you go crazy one day, she won't."

"..."

Qi Lin was speechless.

Wow, the lives of the rich are truly unimaginable.

If he had that 30, he could start working on Elena's advancement.

Oh no, to be precise, it's just that we were able to buy all the necessary materials for the ceremony.

"Alright, goodbye teacher."

After Qi Lin finished speaking, he pushed open the door and left.

In the hallway outside, Elena, dressed in a blue and white school uniform, leaned against the wall. When she saw him come out, she nervously stepped forward and asked, "So? Are you going to jail?"

"no need."
