Ji Fengyan’s sudden disappearance left everyone dumbstruck. No one knew what she was planning to do.

But…

One person looked exceptionally upset at Ji Fengyan’s vanishing act.

Zhou Bugui stood frozen to the ground. He felt a cold air blowing strongly against his back. Instinctively, he bent over and leaped forward, just escaping a lethal blow from behind.

Ji Fengyan stood at Zhou Bugui’s original spot with her sword. She smiled rather maniacally at him. “Zhou Bugui, didn’t you crush your knee? How come you moved so much more nimbly than before?”

Ji Fengyan’s words made everyone realize that Zhou Bugui had ducked Ji Fengyan’s attack on all fours. That supposedly handicapped leg was planted strongly on the ground, his powerful step had even cracked the solid stone floor beneath his feet.

Zhou Bugui’s manner was completely unlike a youth with an injured leg. He was not even behaving like a normal human being, but like…

A wild beast.

In that instant, everyone understood.

There was something wrong with Zhou Bugui!

“Zhou Bugui! There really is something shady about you! I knew you were harboring ill-intentions! You are the real demon!” Liu Kai raged against Zhou Bugui.

Zhou Bugui hadn’t expected Ji Fengyan’s attack and instinctively went into self-preservation mode—revealing his true nature. He narrowed his eyes and scanned the horrified faces of the crowd. His facade had cracked and the sly, twisted expression on his face shocked everybody.

“Catch him!” The institute director was the first to regain his senses and immediately ordered the surrounding guards.

Seeing that his identity had been exposed, Zhou Bugui jumped up nearly five meters off the ground and successfully evaded the guards. He landed on a towering statue in the parade ground and was clambering up the figure with inhuman speed!

Chaos broke out as the all the guards gave chase. The tutors from the school of terminators all hustled toward their airborne mounts to join in the pursuit.

Nevertheless, one person was faster than all of them!

Ji Fengyan took out her heavy sword and flew up on it. Everyone stared dumbfounded as she flew straight toward Zhou Bugui, who was heading to the top of the statue to make his escape!

Zhou Bugui was just preparing to take a huge leap when a voice rang out from behind him.

“What? Trying to escape now?”

Zhou Bugui shuddered as he turned around. Ji Fengyan was actually floating in mid-air behind him.

“Ji Fengyan!” Zhou Bugui gritted his teeth as he stared at her, his eyes full of hatred.

Ji Fengyan smiled as she unleashed her evil-vanquishing sword. Before he could duck, the sword stabbed straight through Zhou Bugui’s chest with such force that he was thrown downwards and pinned onto the platform of the statue!

A loud clanging sound rang out!

The evil-vanquishing sword had Zhou Bugui completely fastened to the platform!
