"You wouldn't know, would you? When I went, I brought Senior Mo and the others. We beat that shameless bitch until she was half dead! I used a stone to viciously scratch her face and poisoned all the dragons until their flesh rotted..."
If she had said this from the start, the man in black would never have believed it. But seeing the pale little face that truly existed in the mirror, he believed! His attacks became increasingly violent, and his poison finally took effect...
Jin Bao'er watched with burning eyes, wishing she could rush up and slap that Lan Lian twice. At this moment, she desperately wanted to shout out, to tell that person she wasn't so badly injured, that her face wasn't ruined, and that the dragons were fine in the Upper Realm...
But just then, the other party couldn't hear her at all!
An accident happened unexpectedly at this moment!
The gray figure waved its hand, and diamonds rained down, forming a mirror that trapped the man in black. As his poison erupted, countless diamond arrows shot out, piercing his heart...
Jin Bao'er's face turned pale, and she finally couldn't hold back! She mobilized the power within her, rushing frantically towards the man, her eyes filled with worry that seemed to solidify! But when she was still five meters away, everything suddenly began to disappear...
It vanished like a shattered mirror...
She stopped abruptly. A crystal-clear realization told her that this was all a memory, an illusion, and possibly even fake!
Until the unconscious man suddenly moved, his cold eyelids lifting directly to look at her...
At that moment! Both their hearts leaped.
Their eyes met, and he showed surprise, then vanished from the spot entirely...
Everything happened so suddenly and quickly! So fast that Jin Bao'er almost felt it was all fake! But her racing heart made it impossible for her to calm down. The sense of reality told her it was true! He had really seen her!
Though she didn't know why, she suddenly felt relieved! Her wildly beating heart slowly calmed down. Jin Bao'er landed quickly, her mind filled with complex emotions, which finally turned into a firm belief...
He wasn't dead, so she would definitely find him!
At this moment, the surrounding scene had returned to normal, exactly like the outside!
Jin Bao'er slowly took a deep breath. Just as she was about to turn and leave...
"Who are you?"
A steady, cold question came, and she froze! Her mind quickly reacted, thinking, "Not good! I've been discovered!"
A figure slowly approached, her brow furrowed, seemingly disbelieving that anyone dared to intrude here!
Jin Bao'er's mind was racing. She knew it was disadvantageous for her to fight now, and exposing her identity would be even worse! So, she quickly applied an invisibility talisman and moved swiftly...
The approaching person was not slow either. Seeing her suddenly disappear, a flicker of surprise flashed in his eyes, then he clapped at the air!
"Pfft!"
Almost simultaneously, Jin Bao'er, dozens of meters away, was sent flying. The invisibility talisman was instantly broken!
The dull pain in her chest startled her! At the same time, she deeply realized she was no match for the other party. Since she hadn't worn a veil tonight, it was as good as having no protection anyway! Her true face was directly exposed to his eyes...
Her astonishingly beautiful face was slightly pale, her skin fair and tender. Her black eyes stared at him, full of wariness! Her black hair cascaded behind her, swaying slightly with her movements. Her black dress was clean and sharp, cool and incisive!
At first glance, she was stunning!
However, the vibrant old man before her suddenly widened his eyes, his breath catching at this moment, and he froze in place...
Seeing this, Jin Bao'er didn't think too much about why. She instinctively counter-attacked. The power of the Great Dao surged like an unbroken stream of water, filled with majesty and sanctity!
The old man was shocked again by this familiar and tense aura, instinctively retreated, and erected a barrier to protect himself! Perhaps the shock of her face was too great, leaving him stunned for several seconds!
During these brief seconds, Jin Bao'er wasted no time. With a few blinks, she appeared at the doorway!
Without hesitation, after a burst of speed, she leaped onto the roof beam, passed through the mirror-like passage, and entered the real world...
The entire sequence of actions took only three seconds! The old man suddenly reacted, turned around, and rushed to stop her. He instantly appeared not far behind her. Seeing her leap onto the roof beam, a cold glint flashed in the old man's eyes, and he was about to seal off the world with a wave of his hand!
How could Jin Bao'er not see this? Feeling the unfamiliar aura behind her, she unhesitatingly opened her domain...
One second!
She vanished from the roof beam, but her domain could only be used for one second! This surprised her even more!
After all, with her mastery of the power of time rules, her domain, amplified by it, could last for nearly five seconds. Yet, facing the old man behind her, it was instantly shortened to one second!
This showed how powerful he was.
She dared not hesitate. The moment she landed, she activated a teleportation talisman. Under the pressure from the person behind her, the talisman only sent her three meters outside the door...
However, this was enough for her to escape!
The second she completely disappeared, the old man appeared where she had just stood, his face full of gravity and unease...
He frowned, his gaze scanning the surroundings. Confirming the woman had escaped, he immediately summoned the academy guard team! With a wave of his hand, his expression was extremely serious!
"Immediately search the entire academy for an injured woman and bring her to see this Saint! Remember... do not harm her."
After giving the order, he no longer looked at the bewildered expressions of others and returned to the院长's main chamber himself!
That night, the entire academy was shaken! Everyone was in a panic, and no one dared to sleep.
As the old man entered the main chamber, he went directly to the mirror world this time and took out the exquisite painting from the top of his desk...
The woman inside was lifelike, her stunningly beautiful face appearing before him. The woman in the painting had calm, indifferent eyes, wore a pure white robe, exuded an exceptionally serene aura, and held a sharp sword, radiating murderous intent!
After opening the painting, the old man reverently hung it on the wall. He then sat cross-legged on a mat, lowered his eyes, and whispered softly...
"Mother Goddess..."
Outside, Jin Bao'er, clutching her chest in extreme pain, finally reached her room after a frantic sprint. Gu Luoxian was still awake and immediately noticed something was wrong with her...
Jin Bao'er had no time to explain. She immediately took a spirit-gathering pill and changed her clothes, her complexion returning to normal!
At this moment, she couldn't help but feel grateful she was wearing the mermaid silk pháp衣 she bought in the Upper Realm. Its defense was quite good, blocking a small portion of the damage for her. Although the clothes' defensive barrier was ruined, she managed to avoid exposure.
Soon, a heavily armed guard team stormed in to search, not even bothering to knock!
