The girl selling goods at the market had never seen money before.

Past scenes floated into her mind; it was her habit to not care about her image or socialize when the night was quiet, or to concern herself with those messy things.

What is now presented to her is her true self.

His chest rose and fell rhythmically.

Suddenly, Bai Jinxuan remembered something very important, and sat up abruptly, her pupils trembling slightly.

"What about the reward for mortal bones, and the cries of the living dead?!"

After returning, she kept thinking about her parents and completely forgot that the Immortal Secret Society still had two other members—Sun Haoqiang and Zhou Kai.

Where did those two guys go? Even the boss doesn't want them?

Just then, her phone vibrated.

When I opened it, it was Yao Yao's voice message.

"Xiaoxuan, have you seen the news? The two members of the Undying Society have been arrested. These despicable terrorist organizations actually targeted students; they deserved it!"

Bai Jinxuan's mind raced.

The secret meeting of immortals, two people, captured?

How could there only be two people!

She immediately went online to check the statement that the union had released an hour earlier.

The gist of the story is that while the investigation team was searching for traces of the Undead Guild on the second level, these terrorist organizations attacked the city on the first level. The mastermind behind the attack, seeing himself surrounded, took a forbidden drug and turned into a monster; he is now dead.

The information about the mastermind behind it was also shown above.

Sun Haoqiang

[The bodyguard works for Longchuan Sterilization. He has a volatile temper and it is preliminarily deduced that he was instructed by Sun Ya, the young lady of Longchuan Sterilization, to carry out this series of actions in order to smear Qiangjian Technology.]

No, no, no, no, what about Ding Hong? They're so loyal, didn't they expose Ding Hong's information?

I was wondering why the union didn't follow up when I was pursuing Ding Hong. It turns out they didn't even know who Ding Hong was.

and many more!

Bai Jinxuan sensed something and slowed down her thoughts.

Sun Haoqiang is dead, Sun Ya has been arrested, Ding Hong is still lying in her treasure chest, but what about Zhou Kai?

Vanished into thin air?

Even if Sun Haoqiang and he were comrades-in-arms and brothers, Sun Ya should have revealed the information. She had already said that the headquarters of the Undying Secret Society was in the undeveloped area, which was entirely out of an attitude of making amends. There was no reason for her not to expose Zhou Kai and Ding Hong, right?

unless......

She is dead.

------------------

"How do you judge people?!"

Yan Quan grabbed the team member responsible for guarding Sun Ya and roared.

Upon hearing this, the man lowered his head and whispered, "I don't know either... She suddenly looked pained and begged us to let her out, saying someone wanted to kill her. Of course, I couldn't agree to that, so I ignored her, and that's how she ended up like this."

“We notified the captain that you were here immediately,” another teammate chimed in.

"Tsk."

Yan Quan looked at the still-locked cage and felt very annoyed: "Open the cage for me."

"Okay...okay!"

The team members quickly took out the key and opened the cage.

Sun Ya remained staring wide-eyed, her mouth agape, motionless.

I stepped forward, pressed my wrist, and found no pulse; it was already cold.

"Hold!"

He cursed angrily and punched the iron bars on the cage, bending them.

The only survivor died so inexplicably... I was hoping to report back to my superiors, but now look what happened...

Just as he was thinking about how to write the report, Xiao Qi walked over and pointed at Sun Ya.

"It's magic."

"What?" Yan Quan's mood immediately improved upon hearing her voice. "What kind of magic?"

Xiao Qi didn't say much, placed her hands on the ground, and began to cast a rewind spell.

As the magic circle expanded, the phantom image of Sun Ya before her death appeared, showing her struggling with her hands constantly choking her neck.

“Magic that can cause suffocation is forbidden,” Xiao Qi said seriously. “We just need to report it truthfully, and the higher-ups won’t blame us.”

"Too."

Yan Quan let out a long breath, sat down, looked up at the red moon in the sky, and felt a little annoyed.

Who exactly killed Sun Ya...? She was the sterile young lady of Longchuan! Wasn't he afraid of retaliation...?

Ps:

Happy Lunar New Year's Eve everyone!

Volume 1: Chapter 67: The Girl Who Traced Her Parents

Early morning, Star City, Fifth Middle School.

"Have you heard? Last night, that mysterious Undead Society was completely wiped out in the dungeon!"

"Really?! I heard that's a tough guy who dares to challenge the union. Maybe someone escaped."

"Shh! Don't talk nonsense! If the union hears you, they'll arrest you and interrogate you."

Before class even started, the boys in the class had already gathered together to talk about the Immortal Society.

On one hand, it was because they witnessed Li Jun turn into a monster and learned of the existence of the terrifying organization, the Undying Society; on the other hand, it was because of today's news.

[Breaking News! The Wicked Things the Undying Secret Society Did - Absolutely True!!!]

Below the large, special effects-laden text are individual front-facing photos of Sun Ya and Sun Haoqiang.

The comments section below was filled with insults such as "Despicable criminal!" and "Evil person!"

Looking at the number of reposts again, it has already exceeded 50, firmly holding the top spot in popularity, even attracting many from the city.

Everyone in the district has heard about this, which led to a flurry of statements from major pharmaceutical companies.

The entire internet was in an uproar.

"Zhou Kai's homepage is quiet; the Black Brother News is still pinned to the top."

Bai Jinxuan put down her phone and slumped weakly onto the table. Her uniform skirt slid off the chair, revealing her legs, encased in black stockings, crossed over each other, the tips of her shoes lightly touching the floor tiles.

Although the Undying Secret Society sent it, the whereabouts of Zhou Kai and the two rare items are still unknown.

She buried her face in her crossed arms and tapped the table with her index finger in frustration.

"Tap, tap, tap..."

Actually, she should have noticed that Ding Hong didn't have any items on him when she was chasing him. Considering the news about the attack on the city of the underworld, it's highly likely that Zhou Kai took away the reward of the mortal bones and the cries of the living dead.

Moreover, given his personality, he most likely sold out the Immortal Secret Society, making the family the biggest winner.

Just then, a girl in the class suddenly shouted, "The union has issued a new announcement: Sun Ya is dead!"

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately became excited and hurriedly took out their phones to check the message.

Bai Jinxuan was no exception; she half-opened her eyes, her red pupils scanning rapidly beneath her silver eyelashes.

really.

The situation was roughly as she had imagined: Sun Ya died under mysterious circumstances, and Longchuan Sterilization issued a reward notice, offering a reward of ten million yuan to anyone who could provide clues to the matter, once the information was confirmed.

Anyone with a little thought would know that Zhou was behind it. Although he's always in the public eye, he's always there whenever something happens, and he even provides commentary for the sports meet.

Bai Jinxuan didn't believe that he wasn't behind it.

It's possible that the reason the "Power Pill" led to the Undying Secret Society wasn't just because Ding Hong was eager to make money to buy items to find artifacts in the dungeon, but also because Zhou Kai, that unscrupulous blogger, was secretly causing trouble.

For example, he could lure someone into taking an excessive amount of a powerful drug at once, which would inevitably cause trouble on the ground, and then he could find a way to escape...

If that's the case, then it can only mean that he and Ding Hongzhen are true brothers in arms. One betrayed the organization and disappeared with the props, while the other betrayed his teammates and ran away with the money.

They really are a den of snakes and rats.

Bai Jinxuan put down her phone out of boredom and closed her eyes.

Sunlight filtered through the classroom's sheer curtains, dappling her hair and making it look like it was coated with a layer of light gold frost.

"Ring ring...!"

The bell rang, and Zhang Hu walked into the classroom.

He looked much more energetic, with bright, piercing eyes, clearly having also heard the news of the Immortal Guild's destruction.

"Students, the joint entrance exam is just around the corner. This exam is extremely important; it's the first time our Star City has held an eight-school joint entrance exam..."

Inspired by Zhang Hu's speech, the students were filled with fighting spirit and determined to achieve good results in the joint examination.

Only Bai Jinxuan remained propping her head up, eyes closed in meditation.

Seeing her like this, Zhang Hu hesitated to speak.

Oh well, what can you do when she's the champion of the sports meet?

......

Soon, school was over.

Bai Jinxuan stretched and sat up from the chair.

It was nearing dusk, and the sky was filled with brilliant fiery clouds.

The entire street was bathed in soft amber light, and the promotional signs of the pastry shops were clearly visible.

Her black ankle boots stopped in front of the glass window, her fingertips hovering between "jam sandwich cookies" and "dark chocolate cookies".

"Young lady, what would you like?" The pastry chef squinted, his expression gentle.

"Um......"

After a moment of contemplation, Bai Jinxuan tapped her slender fingers on the glass: "Let's go with this jam-filled sandwich cookie."

"Okay, please accept this."

The other person quickly packed the cookies into a brown paper bag and handed it over.

The sweet aroma wafts out, and just by smelling it, you know how delicious it is.

Bai Jinxuan was in a good mood. She hugged the bag tightly and quickly walked towards the Murong family's residence.

By the time she arrived at her destination, it was already completely dark.

The Murong family home was brightly lit, and the faint aroma of food could be smelled from outside the door.

Through the window, you can see Yao's mother busy in the kitchen, while Yao's father is in the living room, drawing something on a piece of paper with a pen.

At this moment, Yao's mother noticed Bai Jinxuan hugging the paper bag, so she quickly said something to Yao's father behind her. Immediately afterward, Yao's father stood up and called out to Bai Jinxuan, who was standing there in a daze, from the entrance: "Xiaoxuan, what are you standing there for? Come in and eat!"

"Oh... Oh!"

Bai Jinxuan realized what was happening, hugged the brown paper bag tightly, and went into the Murong family home.

I put on my slippers and went to the living room, where the papers on the coffee table were clearly visible.

They are some bills, and the amount is not small.

Seeing that she was staring at what he had just written, Yao's father put the paper away embarrassedly: "It's all about debts, nothing to see... Xiaoxuan, what are you holding in your hand?"

"The cookies... are delicious."

She placed the sealed brown paper bag on the coffee table, and upon glancing at it, noticed that there was still a lot of fruit left over from the purchase she had made for them.

Are you reluctant to eat it?
