Shocking! The female protagonist unlocked her powers by killing people!

Dongfang Jibai and Yu Yang both had somewhat indescribable expressions as they looked at Mu Shengyuan, but Mu Shengyuan didn't care at all. Meeting Zhao Wenxu's fierce gaze, he hid behind Dongfang Jibai and said, "Brother Jibai, look at him."

Upon hearing this, Dongfang Jibai felt a headache coming on.

Mu Shengyuan's feigned weakness wasn't because she was truly weak, but rather to annoy others. Just like now, her words were like a knife to Zhao Wenxu's heart, but since she repeatedly called him "Brother Bai" and was also a princess of the Nan Yuan Empire, he couldn't pretend not to hear her.

“Teacher Zhao,” Dongfang Jibai said, though he had a headache, “Instead of watching Princess Nan Yuan here, you should try to break the barrier, otherwise your other three students will also be in danger.”

Zhao Wenxu was furious with Mu Shengyuan. He thought that Dongfang Jibai could get some revenge, but he didn't expect that the Second Prince was on Mu Shengyuan's side. Before Zhao Wenxu could get revenge in other ways, his student was killed by Ling Yi.

Zhao Wenxu was both angry and furious. After hearing Dongfang Jibai's words, he immediately looked at Yu Yang and said, "Teacher Yu, Ling Yi is your student. She murdered a fellow student in the same department. Aren't you going to stop her?"

Zhao Wenxu was angry, and Yu Yang was also angry. Ji Baiyu and the other three were not only brainless, but also blind. They couldn't see that Ling Yi didn't like them, and they still insisted on getting close to Ling Yi.

If he hadn't stopped Ling Yi earlier, Ji Baiyu and the other three would have been dead. He thought that after stopping Ling Yi, Ji Baiyu and the other three would have known better than to mess with Ling Yi. But less than a day later, they're back again!

They're rushing to their deaths, how can he stop them?

Yu Yang disliked Ji Baiyu and his three companions, but as their teacher, he couldn't show it or stand by and watch them die because of this relationship.

Furthermore, if Ling Yi were to kill them all here, their families would certainly not let her off the hook.

Yu Yang took a deep breath, suppressed his anger, and made his move to break the barrier.

Seeing Yu Yang make a move, Zhao Wenxu finally felt a little better, but the relief didn't last long before he started feeling unwell again.

Even after Yu Yang made his move, the barrier remained intact.

Zhao Wenxu looked at Yu Yang: "Teacher Yu, did you do this on purpose?"

Yu Yang looked at Zhao Wenxu with displeasure: "If Teacher Zhao thinks I did it on purpose, why don't you do it yourself!" After saying that, Yu Yang stopped and stood aside.

As the head teacher of the second-level academy, Yu Yang's cultivation level was the fifth-level Spirit Master, which was a stage higher than Ling Yi's current cultivation level. However, he failed to break Ling Yi's barrier, so it was normal for Zhao Wenxu to be suspicious.

Yu Yang was too lazy to explain and let Zhao Wenxu take the stage himself.

As a fourth-level academy teacher, Zhao Wenxu's cultivation level was slightly lower than Yu Yang's, being a fourth-level Spirit Master, but he was still a level higher than Ling Yi.

"Come on then." Zhao Wenxu said while gathering his strength, "I think you just want to protect Ling Yi and buy him time."

Yu Yang sneered but did not respond.

Zhao Wenxu struck out with his palm, the force landing on the barrier, but the barrier remained completely still.

Upon seeing this, Zhao Wenxu was greatly shocked: "How could this be?"

It wasn't that Yu Yang deliberately didn't break it; it was simply impossible to break it!

"Teacher Zhao, why don't you break it?" Yu Yang looked at Zhao Wenxu's shocked expression and said slowly, "Are you trying to buy time for Ling Yi?"

Zhao Wenxu was speechless. He hadn't expected it to be true. How could it be true?

Ling Yi only has the cultivation of a third-level Spirit General, so how come the barrier he built can't even be broken by him, a fourth-level Spirit Master?

Just as Zhao Wenxu was having an existential crisis, Wen Xiaoxiao ran over and pleaded for help through the barrier: "Teacher Zhao, Teacher Yu, please make Ling Yi stop! She has already killed Brother Baiyu, we can't let her kill Brother Xinzhu and Brother Wenyu too."

Zhao Wenxu's expression was grim as he said, "I can't break the barrier she's erected..."

"How could that be?" Wen Xiaoxiao's expression changed drastically upon hearing this. If Teacher Zhao couldn't break the barrier, how could she get out?

After Ling Yi killed the three of them, it was time to kill her.

What should she do?

She doesn't want to die!

With tears welling up in her eyes, Wen Xiaoxiao looked at Yu Yang and pleaded, "Teacher Yu, please, please save Brother Xinzhu and the others!"

“You are Ling Yi’s teacher. If you tell Ling Yi to stop, he will definitely listen!” Wen Xiaoxiao gave Yu Yang no chance to refuse: “Xinzhu and the others are all students of the Imperial Academy. The Imperial Academy has spent a lot of effort to train them. If Ling Yi kills them all, the academy will suffer the most. Furthermore, their families will not let Ling Yi off the hook. It will not benefit Ling Yi. Teacher Yu, even if not for Xinzhu and the others, for Ling Yi’s sake, please say something.”

Ling Yi erected the barrier to prevent the four from escaping, but it didn't block out sound. Therefore, Ling Yi could hear everything, whether it was what the people inside were saying or the discussions outside.

As soon as Wen Xiaoxiao finished speaking, Yu Yang and the others saw Wen Xiaoxiao's mouth open and close, but they could not hear any sound.

The four words that popped into everyone's minds at the same time were: "Soundproof barrier!"

Ling Yi heard this, but before Yu Yang could speak, he completely eliminated the possibility. In this way, he not only made his position clear, but also avoided putting Yu Yang in a difficult position. After all, the soundproof barrier appeared before Yu Yang could even speak, so it wasn't that Ling Yi was ignoring him.

Inside the barrier, Wen Xiaoxiao saw Yu Yang and the others' expressions change drastically. At first, she didn't realize what had happened until she could no longer hear the sounds outside.

Upon realizing this, Wen Xiaoxiao's face turned as white as a corpse. Ling Yi was determined to kill them!

But why?

Just because she asked her about cultivation methods, just because she wanted the Ghost Vine Source Pearl?

These are all trivial matters, so why would she want to kill someone?

"Ah!" A shrill scream rang out, startling Wen Xiaoxiao into turning around. As she turned, she saw Ling Yi sever Zheng Xinzhu's body with a single knife. That scream was the last sound Zheng Xinzhu could utter!

Blood splattered all over Ling Yi's face, but Ling Yi didn't care and turned to attack Zhou Wenyu.

Zhou Wenyu witnessed the tragic deaths of Ji Baiyu and Zheng Xinzhu and knew he was no match for Ling Yi. He tried to escape but was blocked by the barrier. Now that Ling Yi was attacking, Zhou Wenyu did not want to die, so he quickly retreated to Wen Xiaoxiao's side.

"Brother Wenyu..." Wen Xiaoxiao called out sadly when she saw Zhou Wenyu, but before she could speak, Zhou Wenyu grabbed her and pushed her in front of him.

Ling Yi's bone knife came hurtling towards her. Wen Xiaoxiao was terrified when she saw the white, gleaming bone knife. She struggled and cried out, "Brother Wenyu, what are you doing?"

"How could you pull me down to take the knife?"

"Shut up!" Zhou Wenyu shouted. "If you hadn't wanted the Ghost Vine Source Pearl, how could we have ended up like this?"

Faced with life and death, Zhou Wenyu's gentle mask shattered completely, and he blamed everything on Wen Xiaoxiao. In fact, the reason they took advantage of Wen Xiaoxiao was because she gave them what they wanted.
