Less than half a minute passed before Yuan Dongzhi arrived.
Her entrance was simple and crude, as she floated down slowly from high above.
She landed beside Shen Qinghan.
She had flown over.
Flight by levitation.
Advanced-level creatures can manipulate objects in the air with powerful spiritual power.
If the object being manipulated is oneself, that is flight by levitation.
“What has happened?”
Yuan Dongzhi asked Shen Qinghan.
Shen Qinghan had told her on WeChat that there was an urgent matter that needed her attention, hoping she could come quickly.
As for what the matter was, even Shen Qinghan didn’t know; she was merely a tool for passing messages.
“Principal Yuan, these two people came to me for help, and gave me a bag of Spirit Fruit. Inside it, there was this peculiar red seed. I suspect it’s a method used by the Divine Plant Cult to force students into joining,” Lin Zichen briefly summarized the events and his suspicions to Yuan Dongzhi, who had just arrived.
Yuan Dongzhi hadn’t even finished hearing what he was saying when she saw the red seed in his hand. Her brow furrowed immediately.
It was a Gu Seed of a tree demon!
And what’s more, it was a large, egg-sized, advanced tree demon Gu Seed!
A Gu Seed this size could probably control even advanced-level creatures!
The Divine Plant Cult actually used it to control a freshman?
Thinking this, Yuan Dongzhi stretched out her hand and suctioned the red seed from Lin Zichen’s hand from across the air.
After inspecting it and confirming that it was indeed a tree demon Gu Seed,
Yuan Dongzhi said to Lin Zichen, “The red seed in your hand is the seed of an exotic tree. Once consumed, it will control the eater, rendering them helpless. It’s one of the common methods used by the Divine Plant Cult to coerce people into joining.”
Under control after being consumed?
This Gu Seed is that toxic?
Lu Gang and Wang Shujie are truly despicable creatures!
Lin Zichen cursed in his heart.
Then, he remembered the car ride back to school after the practical assessment had ended, when Lu Gang and Wang Shujie had seemed very off.
Now that he thought about it, they must have just been controlled by someone from the Divine Plant Cult and were at a loss.
Thinking this, Lin Zichen relayed the incident to Yuan Dongzhi.
After listening, Yuan Dongzhi nodded and, with a light tap on the ground, she soared into the air, suspending herself mid-air.
Lu Gang and Wang Shujie also floated up with her.
It was Yuan Dongzhi’s spiritual power that suspended them both.
“Principal Yuan, we were forced!”
“Principal Yuan, I… hmm!”
No sooner had the two started to plea than Yuan Dongzhi used her spiritual power to seal their mouths, silencing them completely.
Upon this, their faces turned pale, filled with panic.
At that moment, both knew their fate was sealed; their outcomes weren’t likely to be good.
Yuan Dongzhi didn’t pay any attention to the two, instead addressing Lin Zichen and Shen Qinghan below: “The situation within humanity is much worse than what you two see on the surface.”
“The Heretical Sect is pervasive, and there are heretics lurking in many places.”
“When you’re interacting with people, you need to learn to keep your eyes peeled, and that goes for instructors and school authorities as well.”
“In any case, you must always be cautious of others.”
While speaking, Yuan Dongzhi looked at Lin Zichen, her voice indifferent: “I’ll take these two back for investigation first, and I will inform you as soon as there’s an outcome.”
Without a moment’s delay, she swiftly levitated and took Lu Gang and Wang Shujie towards the administrative building with her burst of spiritual power.
It must be nice to fly…
Lin Zichen watched as Yuan Dongzhi flew away, his eyes full of envy.
“Xiao Chen, Lu Gang and Wang Shujie are too wicked. You were thinking of helping them, yet they were thinking of harming you!” Shen Qinghan said with indignation.
Lin Zichen also felt the danger and was somewhat afraid.
If Lu Gang and Wang Shujie had targeted Shen Qinghan and attacked her when she was alone, they might have succeeded in their plot.
With this thought, he cautioned Shen Qinghan: “Those two are indeed vile. We must be cautious in the future, and never let down our guard.”
“Yes, we must be cautious,” Shen Qinghan nodded like a pecking chicken.
Lin Zichen said no more, lost in thought.
Standing out too much is indeed dangerous.
He had been targeted by the Divine Plant Cult right away.
Luckily, he had [Danger Perception] and [Survival of the Fittest] to give him a prompt, helping him to detect Lu Gang and Wang Shujie’s plot in time.
Otherwise, he might have fallen for it…
After steadying his emotions a bit, Lin Zichen promptly discarded the bag of Spirit Fruit he was carrying.
The Spirit Fruit in the bag were probably fine.
But to be on the safe side, it was better to dispose of all of them.
There was no need to be greedy for such minor gains.
Shen Qinghan found it painful to watch as he threw away all of the Spirit Fruit into the trash can.
It was the pain of waste.
Such a large bag of Spirit Fruit, worth quite a bit of money, and to throw it away like that was such a pity.
She knew the Spirit Fruit had to be discarded, and she would have done the same.
But her heart just felt it was a terrible shame, as if she were watching money burn.
“You mustn’t eat those Spirit Fruit, so throwing them away is the right choice; stop looking at the trash can,” Lin Zichen poked Shen Qinghan’s cheek and said with a smile: “If you want to try them, I’ll buy some for you from the school credit store later.”
Shen Qinghan shook her head: “No need, I’m not particularly eager to try them, just a bit curious, that’s all.”
Spirit Fruit were too expensive, and she didn’t want Lin Zichen to waste school credits on them.
School credits were better spent purchasing Exotic Beast Meat.
After all, Lin Zichen could gain abilities by devouring Exotic Beast Meat; it offered a higher return on investment.
A mature and sensible woman should always consider her man’s needs in this way.
Although she wasn’t quite mature yet and her relationship with Lin Zichen hadn’t progressed to that of adults,
