Transcendent Ember

Chapter 24 Meeting the Mysterious Murderer Again
In the vice principal's office, Zang Fei immersed himself in his desk, signing the documents that needed to be signed.

The young and beautiful Assistant Qi approached the desk in high heels, leaned over and said, "Principal, Teacher Yang's resignation procedures have been completed."

Zang Fei stopped in his hand, and continued to sign as if nothing had happened in the next second: "Got it."

"Third Uncle." On the sofa next to him, Gao Suo frowned, and said in an unhappy tone, "Let's forget it? Teacher Yang is helping you, but Director Darcy forcibly asked the board of directors to fire him. He is too much!"

Zang Fei glanced at his nephew: "Didn't you always admire him and want to take risks with him?"

"I" Gao Suo was at a loss for words, paused, and said, "That was before!"

Zang Fei's tone was flat, but his words were straight to the heart: "Just because he didn't want you in the Department of Archeology, so you hold a grudge?"

Gao Suo's expression changed, and he became a little ugly: "It's not like that, Third Uncle."

Zang Fei waved his hand indifferently, and said indifferently: "You hate Zhang Jichuan for robbing your quota. If you want to target him, I promise to help you. Director Daxi found out, and instead of coming to me directly, he asked to expel Teacher Yang. This is his attitude: he does not seek to oppose me, but also does not allow me to bully him anymore!"

Gao Suo looked displeased: "You are the principal, he doesn't take you seriously."

"Face is given to each other." Zang Fei made a final decision, "This matter ends here, and no further disturbances are allowed."

After a pause, Zang Fei added another sentence: "The Department of Archeology is the most important department of the school. Under the leadership of Director Darcy, the results are gratifying, reaching the best level in a century, and the directors are all earning a lot of money. .Even if your uncle is the vice-principal, you can't torture Director Darcy too much, do you understand?"

Gao Suo was silent for a while, clenched and loosened his fists: "I see, Third Uncle."

Zang Fei lowered his head and continued to sign: "Go back."

After leaving the office, Gao Suo's face was frosty, and he glanced at Assistant Qi who followed him: "I won't let it go!"

Mr. Luo Jieni led the three novices out of the school without any explanation.

"Take you to see the prosperity of the world..." he said.

At night, Yujing University crawled in the darkness like a giant glowing beast. After leaving the Sanjie Street of Yujing University, there were not many people there.

Teacher Luo Jieni took them to take a small road.

Zhang Jichuan had lingering fears: "Can we take the big road? The last time we took this kind of night road, we met a perverted killer."

Zhou Xinyi and Mao Rongrong froze at the same time, thinking of that terrible enemy...

Mr. Luo Jieni smiled: "I've heard it before, don't be afraid, with me, any monsters and monsters you encounter can be tidied up for him. Let me tell you, take this road to the center of the city. Much faster, maybe we can get back to school in time for a good night's sleep..."

Suddenly, Teacher Luo Jieni's words froze on his lips, and his eyes suddenly became deep and serious, looking at a dead end: "Who is there?!"

The faces of Zhang Jichuan and the others changed slightly, and they followed Mr. Luo Jieni's gaze:
A man, with windbreaker and hat, all in pitch black, pressed a girl against the wall and bit off her neck...

Zhang Jichuan broke out in a cold sweat!
"what!--"

Mao Rongrong seemed to be stepped on his tail, and screamed: "It's him!"

"The serial murderer!" Zhou Xinyi said in a deep voice.

"That's him?" Teacher Luo Jieni raised his eyebrows, and anger appeared on his face, "The pervert who killed more than ten ordinary people in a row? Suffer!"

With a kick, he turned into a meteor and rushed towards the mysterious murderer.

The mysterious murderer looked over, still blindfolded, still with an invisible but oppressive gaze.

He got up, threw the girl who had lost a lot of blood aside, like throwing an insignificant waste, stood where she was, and punched out.

boom!
With one punch, the mighty Mr. Luo Jieni flew upside down and smashed through the low rooms.

His eyes fell on Zhang Jichuan, Zhou Xinyi and Mao Rongrong.

Without words, the mysterious murderer moved one step closer to the three of them.

"Ou Yezi's refining hammer has been refined a thousand times!" The most powerful Zhou Xinyi took the lead to fight, and countless shadows of the hammer mixed with flames covered the mysterious murderer.

However, the overwhelming shadow of the hammer could not even move the corner of the mysterious murderer's clothes.

He pointed at Zhou Xinyi with a leather gloved finger, and the latter was shaken all over, bleeding from all of his orifices.

"Meow!"

Mao Rongrong jumped behind the mysterious murderer almost at the same time, intending to sneak attack, but she swung her claws, but she didn't even touch the mysterious murderer's body. She was thrown out like an electric shock, and her hair exploded all over.

"Borrow an arrow!" Zhang Jichuan swallowed a handful of painkillers, summoned Kong Ming's scarecrow, and activated his extraordinary ability.

Endless excruciating pain overwhelmed him, and the painkiller miraculously worked, allowing him to stay awake in the excruciating pain.

He saw Kongming's scarecrow flying towards the mysterious murderer, passing through his body but finding nothing...

The mysterious murderer turned his head and looked at Zhang Jichuan with his 'eyes'. Zhang Jichuan's body sank immediately and he couldn't move.

In just two seconds, the three were completely defeated.

The mysterious murderer stretched out his hand to Zhang Jichuan, as if he wanted to pick him up.At this time, a golden light hit.

Mr. Luo Jieni sent over: "Clovis stone spear, piercing!"

The Clovis stone spear pierced the mysterious murderer's heart, but was blocked by a finger of the opponent.

However, Mr. Luo Jieni himself did not give hope to this spear. He judged that the strength of the mysterious murderer far surpassed him with the previous move.

His purpose was to take the three of them away.

The golden light enveloped Zhang Jichuan, Zhou Xinyi and Mao Rongrong, activated the extraordinary ability 'Westbound' and began to teleport.

"Hold on, just go back to school." Teacher Luo Jieni said to the injured three people.

However, when he looked back, his eyes almost popped out: "How is it possible?"

I saw the mysterious murderer following behind unhurriedly, seemingly strolling in the garden, but it was faster than the transmission speed, and the distance between the two sides was shortening.

Zhang Jichuan: "Mr. Xinyi, the freighter Changci!"

Zhou Xinyi's face was covered with blood, and she glanced at him faintly: "The Long Ci can't stop him, and... I've never had so much money on me."

"It's really..." Zhang Jichuan recalled the last time, when the cargo ship Changci was in front of the mysterious murderer, he couldn't stop it with every move.and……

"It's also the first time I have so much money..."

The mysterious murderer was getting closer and closer, and the distance was less than 500 meters. Zhou Xinyi's face flashed with hesitation, and she was about to call the freighter Changci.

A hand stopped him.

"I'm coming!" Zhang Jichuan suddenly jumped out of the range of the golden light, and took the initiative to meet the mysterious murderer.

Teacher Luo Jieni suddenly changed color: "Mr. Zhang Jichuan!"

"Run away!" Zhang Jichuan's voice came, and he rushed towards the mysterious murderer without hesitation.

The latter 'looked' indifferently at Zhang Jichuan who took the initiative to die.

"Carrying the lamp!!!" Zhang Jichuan's heart was chilled by his gaze, and his face was as determined as a shipwreck, "If you don't come out, I will really die here, and your ceremony will never be completed."

no response...

Zhang Jichuan's heart skipped a beat, speed up!
200 meters, 100 meters, 30 meters...

The distance between the two sides was getting closer, the mysterious murderer stretched out his hand, and Zhang Jichuan smelled the smell of death.

But he still didn't stop.

A darkness thicker than night suddenly gushed out of Zhang Jichuan's body like a tide, and a lantern became the only light source in the darkness...

Darkness pours in on the mysterious murderer!

The mysterious murderer's footsteps stopped, his outstretched hand froze, and there was a trace of darkness.

He ignored Zhang Jichuan, who was close at hand and could be destroyed with his hands, and 'looked' at his fingertips.

A darkness deeper than a black glove, trying to spread to his whole body, seems to want to swallow him...

The mysterious murderer stood still for a second, then suddenly took a step back and disappeared.

"Huh!—" Zhang Jichuan let out a long breath.

"Did you regard me as your bodyguard?" A hoarse voice suddenly reached his ears.

Zhang Jichuan's heart arose again, and when he looked up, a blurry figure like a silhouette appeared behind the brass and glass oil lamp, and he cast it indifferently.

"It's so frightening!" Zhang Jichuan cursed secretly, boldly looking directly at the figure, "You really have been watching me all this time."

Lantern said indifferently: "You should be thankful that you are still useful to me. The grave of the last person who tried to use me was already three feet high."

Zhang Jichuan: "The darkness just now flowed from me? What did you do to me?"

The two talked to each other, but the bull's head was not right with the horse's mouth.

Lantern: "Answer me a question."

Zhang Jichuan: "What the hell are you hiding on me?"

Lantern: "What is toe off?"

Zhang Jichuan looked at him with a straight face and said nothing.

Lantern: "Sometimes living is worse than being dead. Do you know why?"

A gust of cool wind came from nowhere, and Zhang Jichuan suddenly came to his senses. His desire to survive overwhelmed his hatred for the lantern, and he kept telling himself that 'a good man never suffers from immediate losses'.

Taking a deep breath, he replied, "Toe off, Oneiroi."

The voice of the lantern turned cold, like snow in the cold winter: "You said last time that Morpheus is the god in charge of dreams."

"Hey!"

Zhang Jichuan smiled, revealing the sarcasm of a bully: "Don't you know, gods also have territory? Morpheus only takes care of a small area."

Lantern looked down at Zhang Jichuan, without saying a word, making it hard to figure out what he was thinking.Until Zhang Jichuan couldn't help but want to speak again, the tide-like darkness suddenly dissipated, leaving only the faint words of the lantern in his ears: "Zhang Jichuan, I want you to be promoted to the second rank of extraordinary within a year."

Zhang Jichuan asked with question marks all over his face: "What do you mean?"

But the lantern was gone, and no one could answer his doubts.

"Teacher Zhang Jichuan" came a voice mixed with anxiety and worry from a distance, and he was refreshed, feeling that everything around him returned to his own perception.

Zhang Jichuan's eyelids twitched: "When did he cut off my perception of the surroundings?"

He once again felt the power and fear of the lantern.
