Chapter 1401: Fantasy Antique Shop Work Log 35

"Haven't you thought of an answer yet?" Ling Hong Youyou urged on the screen, "Just say the name, and he will die."

"Don't you have anyone you want to kill?"

She stared at the few teachers dodging her gaze, her gloomy tone sounding like it came from hell: "If you're all so kind, why watch me get bullied and even cover for them, becoming accomplices?"

The classroom was deathly silent.

Jin Chen found a stool to sit on, was about to pull Ying Wu Shu over, had already raised his hand, when his expression suddenly sank.

There was an aura of evil cultivators.

He looked outside the classroom, slightly narrowed his eyes, and extended his spiritual sense.

Since the last time a person controlled by evil cultivators appeared at Spirit Clear Crossing, Jin Chen has been especially alert to their presence, after all the target is likely his wife.

His spiritual sense covered the entire Ghost Domain; as the Ghost King, Ling Hong sensed it immediately, and the Ling Hong on the screen suddenly became extremely wary, yet she had no idea where this sudden terrifying ordeal came from.

Jin Chen's expression sank cold and unmoving like a mountain, catching the sound of a conversation coming from a certain corner.

The Ghost Domain's magnetic field caused the sound to be unstable, but the key information could still be pieced together.

The evil cultivator had just gone to test Luo Qiu, confirming he was not the heir of the Ying family.

Indeed, they were coming for Ying Wu Shu.

Hmm, they should be killed.

"Jin Chen, what's wrong?" Ying Wu Shu took his outstretched hand, noticed the change in his expression, sat down worriedly and asked.

Jin Chen withdrew his spiritual sense, glanced at the jumping ghost on the teaching screen, and his pupils flickered slightly.

"Nothing." Jin Chen shifted his posture, pressed Ying Wu Shu's fingers, and whispered: "I remember Wu Shu saying before that all past inheritors of Spirit Clear Crossing have an inheritance jade pendant."

"Yes, but why suddenly ask this?" Ying Wu Shu frowned, leaned in to observe Jin Chen's expression, "Are you really alright?"

Jin Chen gave a lazy chuckle, tapped the spot where Ying Wu Shu's brows met, and said: "What, do you suspect I'm possessed by a fierce ghost?"

Ying Wu Shu tentatively grabbed Jin Chen's wrist, leaned in closer, and whispered so only they could hear: "I thought you were changing the subject to talk about something big."

Jin Chen's mouth twitched, and he hesitated for a second.

"Wu Shu."

"Huh?" Ying Wu Shu focused his attention to listen.

"Or maybe read fewer mystery novels."

Ying Wu Shu: "……"

After half a second, Ying Wu Shu shot upright, his back turned, showing a mix of embarrassment and annoyance.

Jin Chen shifted his position, still needing to coax: "I was just speaking offhand; I'll buy you new novels to read when we get back."

Ying Wu Shu glanced back at him, annoyed: "So why ask this then?"

"This place is dangerous; I'll keep it safe for you first."

Jin Chen finished speaking, himself feeling the words were a bit ill-intentioned, was thinking how to rephrase when he saw Ying Wu Shu pull a jade pendant from his hundred-treasure bag.

"Here." Ying Wu Shu held the jade pendant, its pale white glow in the dim, gloomy classroom as if it carried its own spiritual light.

Jin Chen startled, then quickly reacted to take the jade pendant; his distinct knuckles slipped through Ying Wu Shu's palm, and the pendant fell into his sleeve.

"Aren't you afraid I won't give it back?" Jin Chen raised an eyebrow, since he hadn't even thought of an excuse yet.

"Will you?"

Ying Wu Shu actually threw the question back, tilted his head to look at him, and when their gazes met, he cocked his head.

Although doubtful, this unconscious little gesture was overly cute.

Jin Chen raised a hand to Ying Wu Shu's hair, his voice soft: "Won't."

Ying Wu Shu's heart stirred; recalling his earlier conversation with Luo Qiu, his ears involuntarily flushed red.

【Villain Heartthrob Value +5, total 77!】

"Hey! Who allowed you to flirt in the classroom!" Ling Hong, furious ghost energy, finally shouted, mouth opening to spew blood: "Shameless humans!"

This was the first time the principal had ever wanted to agree with Ling Hong's words.

Utterly inappropriate for any occasion!

"Five minutes are up—hurry and choose who you want to kill!"

Ling Hong pretended to be a teacher standing at the podium; several people in the classroom could tell she was imitating Teacher Song's usual manner.

Arrogant and rude, looking down on everyone.

"Whoever can't say it dies!"

Teacher Song and Liu Dong didn't know there were still many people on the seventh floor of the wine tower; their answers were astonishingly similar.

Still not found, but the other roommates who were also captured.

Even what Teacher Song said was Liu Dong's daughter Liu Bei.

"Hahahaha!" Ling Hong burst into a shrill, horrifying laugh, eyes streaming with bloody tears as he watched them tear at each other like dogs, wishing they'd just start fighting outright.

The principal's answer was Zi Ying.

Zi Ying, curled up in the corner, showed no reaction; wherever Ling Hong was, she displayed abnormal fear, even giving a nervous hehe laugh twice at the principal's choice.

But Ling Hong paid no attention to Zi Ying, skipping over to ask her choice.

"And you? What's your answer, who do you want to kill?" Ling Hong stared straight at Jin Chen, his eyes widening to half a fist size, nearly taking up his whole face, making people feel a chill.

Jin Chen was the focus of everyone's gaze.

Jin Chen stood up, smoothed the slightly wrinkled hem of his coat, brushed off nonexistent dust on his arms, and marched onto the podium with high spirits.

Ling Hong: "……What the hell are you doing?"

I told you to come get the award?!

Jin Chen stood on the podium, nearly side by side with Ling Hong, facing the others.

This was deliberately stalling for time.

Ying Wu Shu saw it, but didn't know what Jin Chen was waiting for, sat quietly in front of the desk and chair, frowning in puzzlement, and locked eyes with Jin Chen.

Jin Chen gave him a look saying "settle down, don't be impatient", hearing the gradually approaching footsteps, very light, there were three people.

Coincidentally, he had already heard the name of one of the evil cultivators just now.

Jin Chen had one hand in his coat pocket, and deliberately patted the useless microphone on the case, saying, "The person I want to kill is……"

"Hei Shisan."

Plop.

Outside the classroom, a heavy object suddenly crashed down.

Hei Shisan hurriedly scrambled up again, and on the rooftop he stared at the other two, "Who is he?! How does he know I'm here?!"

Hei Shi and Hei Liu exchanged a glance, both shaking their heads: "Don't know, boss!"

"Could he be the grandson of Old Monster Ying, the boss of this term of Pure Spirit Crossing?!"

Inside the classroom, Ling Hong stared in disbelief, turning to glare, "Who are you talking about?!"

The Ghost King was indeed related to the evil cultivator.

Ling Hong not being cruel enough to kill many, yet having only resentment, it makes sense that she could cultivate into a Ghost King.

After death, turning into a resentful spirit, it was just right for the evil cultivator to exploit.

Jin Chen's thoughts flowed, he said lazily: "Don't stare, your eyes don't need to be as big as a lightbulb for cosplay, what aesthetic do girls have?"

Ling Hong gritted her teeth: "I was stretched open by their clips!"

Jin Chen: "……"

Hiss, his conscience ached a little.

【Host saying this, how could something only the Main God can see hurt?】 Ling Gun Gun dealt a divine finishing blow.

Jin Chen remained silent for half a second, not responding, and with everyone's doubtful gazes, he tapped the podium with his fingers.

"Those three outside, aren't they coming in for class?"
