Chapter 640: Ruan Ruan's Childishness, Indulged by Someone
Under the restraint of the golden whip, Cheng Xuelan was still struggling desperately. Her resistance annoyed Qin Ruan, and her eyes emitted a dangerous and fierce light.
In a cold tone, Qin Ruan said, "I don't have time to waste with you. If you cooperate, you'll suffer less."
Cheng Xuelan's blood-red eyes filled with cruelty, and a murderous intent surged around her.
With a cold face, she stared at Qin Ruan, and her two red eyes exuded a fierce light. "We have no grudges with you. Let me go, or you will all die!"
Qin Ruan didn't like others talking about her life as if it were trivial.
She reached out, pulling Cheng Xuelan's hair to bring them face to face.
The strong resentment emanating from Cheng Xuelan caused a slight fluctuation in Qin Ruan's heart. She sneered, "Haha... I'd like to see who dares to covet my life."
Her life was not something that could be taken lightly.
Seeing that Cheng Xuelan had nothing to say, Qin Ruan intended to take her away. However, six heads emerged from the lake's surface again.
"Don't!"
"Let Cheng Xuelan go!"
"She's innocent. You can't hurt her!"
The six faces in the lake were pale and twisted, giving off a sinister and eerie feeling.
Qin Ruan raised her eyebrows and looked down at the six lost souls in the water. "Oh? Then tell me, how is she innocent?"
"She protected us!"
"There's a tree demon at the school!"
"Our bodies have been implanted with wood essence, and if we leave the water, we'll be captured!"
"Cheng Xuelan didn't harm us!"
Qin Ruan stared thoughtfully at the six puppets and calmly asked, "Are you the six people who had accidents after the school started?"
One of the boys with a delicate face and an unusually pale complexion nodded.
Wei Linchen interjected, "Qin Ruan, bring them back for now. You don't look too well."
The weather was already gloomy, and the wind had started blowing again.
He was worried that Qin Ruan's body might not be able to handle it.
Qin Ruan agreed with a nod. However, Cheng Xuelan was uncooperative. She turned to the six lost souls floating on the water's surface and shouted, "Don't worry about me, just sink!"
After shouting, she struggled fiercely against the restraint of the golden whip.
However, the more she struggled, the tighter the golden whip bound her.
Faced with such resistance, Qin Ruan dragged Cheng Xuelan back to her side by pulling the handle of the golden whip.
"Huangju Tree has escaped, and countless resentful souls hanging on the tree have been sent to the Underworld. Now, I need to deal with you six ghosts. If you don't stop talking nonsense, I will make you obey me by force. Don't believe me? Give it a try!"
Cheng Xuelan stared wide-eyed in shock. "Huangju Tree escaped?"
"Escaped!" Qin Ruan replied without any mercy. She was unhappy with Huangju Tree's actions, especially regarding Lingfeng and Lan An.
"Impossible!"
Cheng Xuelan looked at Qin Ruan's exquisite face with suspicion and shook her head, denying it. Huangju Tree had been at the Audri Academy for so many years; it couldn't have just run away.
This person must be lying to her!
"Believe it or not, it's up to you."
Qin Ruan released Cheng Xuelan, and a faint golden light appeared in her hand. The golden light shot towards Cheng Xuelan's face. Cheng Xuelan sensed the danger, but it was too late to dodge, and she fainted on the spot.
Qin Ruan threw Cheng Xuelan's ghostly body, which didn't weigh much, rudely onto the boat. Then, she turned to look at the six puppets floating on the water.
"Are you coming up by yourselves, or should I personally catch you?"
To avoid torture, the six new ghosts chose to cooperate.
Meanwhile, Principal Liu had been waiting by the lake. He had been anxiously waiting for Qin Ruan and the others since they entered the forest.
Finally, he saw them in the water.
The three people on the boat didn't know what to do, especially Qin Ruan, who seemed to be dancing in the air, waving her hands in the void, making others think she was actually dancing.
Principal Liu gritted his teeth, wondering if the people brought by Wei Linchen were reliable or not.
Soon, Qin Ruan, Wei Lincen, and Lin Hao returned to the shore by boat.
Principal Liu walked up and anxiously asked, "You're back. So, did you find Cheng Xuelan?"
Qin Ruan held the handle of the golden whip, leading the seven lost souls around Principal Liu.
As Principal Liu didn't have the Heavenly Eyes, he couldn't see the seven lost souls passing by him.
Wei Linchen walked up to Principal Liu, and the two of them had a low conversation while following behind Qin Ruan.
Soon, everyone returned to the dormitory.
However, by the time they returned, Principal Liu was not with them.
Qin Ruan threw the seven ghosts into the room and turned around to see Wei Linchen and a hidden guard of the Hou family, asking, "Didn't the monk come with us?"
The hidden guard seemed puzzled. "Monk?"
Qin Ruan sighed, "The one who recites scriptures. I met him earlier, and he kept talking about the scriptures and moral principles."
After meeting Principal Liu, she knew that he was a person who loved to preach and was full of moral teachings.
The hidden guard laughed lightly, "He went back. What's next? Can we handle the rest?"
The matter was not yet over. He could probably guess the reason behind the whole incident, but he didn't know if Qin Ruan would completely resolve it.
Qin Ruan nodded and turned to enter the room.
Kang Dong and Lu Xianglan were no longer in the room.
However, there was a handsome young man standing inside.
"Boss, you're finally back!"
Seeing Qin Ruan, Liu Liu's eyes revealed a hint of amazement. He had never seen such a beautiful woman before, so beautiful that it didn't make people feel sharp and uncomfortable.
Qin Ruan's beauty had a charm that made people's breath stop.
She had a graceful temperament, like a pure and gentle moonlight, emitting a soft and clean light, and her demeanor exuded an ethereal and calm presence.
Soon, Liu Liu's attention was drawn by Wei Linchen, who walked in behind Qin Ruan.
The scene in which Liu Liu had cried and rushed towards Wei Linchen earlier came back to his mind.
In front of everyone's gaze, Liu Liu knelt on the ground, crying.
"Boss, I almost died. You don't know how scared I was!"
"There's an old ghost in the school's archive room. It actually touched my butt..."
"Boss, I risked my life to bring back all the information for you. It was so close; I almost couldn't see you!"
"Sob... Boss, my weak soul needs your comfort!"
Liu Liu's crying voice stunned everyone present.
Except for the person who was being hugged, Wei Linchen.
He pinched his brow slightly and looked down at Liu Liu, who seemed both distressed and fearful.
Liu Liu cried miserably, but not a single tear fell from his eyes.
Wei Linchen sighed softly, mixed with a trace of helplessness. "Alright, how much more do you want to add to your salary this time?"
Liu Liu spoke at an extremely fast pace, "Nine thousand eight!"
Wei Lincen smiled wryly, "Are you robbing me?"
