Having cultivated myself into an immortal, all I want to do is raise female disciples.

She glanced discreetly at Lu Yingqiu and Ning Xuchen, whose faces were extremely pale and ashen, and said in a deep voice, "That old rogue isn't the kind of person who would joke around at a time like this. Now is not the time to be leisurely... He won't deliberately hide from the public."

It should be noted that Yuntian Academy may still be suffering persecution today.

This situation was completely different from when Ye Yuchan went to the Seven Dream Tree. She later learned that the old rogue had actually been watching from the sidelines all along, but chose not to intervene in order to train her own ability to act.

But things are completely different now.

Knowing that Yuntian Academy might be in trouble, Yunping could no longer remain in the shadows.

"Could it be that even the old rogue is trapped in this Lost Forest of Death?"

This rather unrealistic thought flashed through Ye Yuchan's mind.

The Lost Forest does sound quite eerie, but it's still just a transformation of a secret realm. With the old rogue's extraordinary abilities, how could he possibly not be able to break through it?

But he hasn't shown up yet... Why is that?

"Now is not the time to think about these things..."

A trembling voice escaped from Lu Yingqiu's mouth.

The petite girl had a somber expression, and her delicate body was shivering uncontrollably—not because of the cold air, but because her heart was already filled with anxiety.

She suddenly looked up, her fists clenched: "We need to figure out how to get out of here right now... We don't have that much time!"

The other people in the academy are waiting for her to go back, so how could she waste her time in a place like this?

Ye Yuchan and Lu Yingqiu exchanged a glance, and she naturally understood her junior apprentice's anxiety.

"Alright, let's leave that old rogue for now! Anyway, he's so powerful, he definitely won't be affected much. Leaving him here alone for a few years won't be a problem."

Despite uttering rather rude words, Ye Yuchan made a decision.

"In short, the priority now is to figure out how to get out of here."

“That’s true…” Zhang Ruoxue looked around, but with her eyesight, she couldn’t even see the edge of the plain. “It’s all bare here, and there aren’t any signs or anything. How do we get there?”

“We have no choice but to explore,” Gu Xingzhuo said. “The Lost Forest of Death… I’ve only heard of it, but I don’t know how to get in or out. If we want to get out of here…”

"So, we have to search separately...?"

Ultimately, it was Ye Yuchan who made the decision.

If everyone searches in the same direction, the efficiency will be extremely low. Although it is safe, right now... time is everything.

They had to leave this dead forest as quickly as possible.

Therefore, the group was divided into three groups.

Lu Yingqiu and Ning Xuchen are a master and apprentice pair.

Ye Yuchan and Zhang Ruoxue are in the same group.

Gu Xingzhuo said he was in a group by himself.

"Is everything alright?"

Ye Yuchan looked at the white-haired boy in front of her with a hint of worry: "If you're alone... you might encounter danger."

“I’m fine with it.” Gu Xingzhu shook his head, revealing a reassuring smile, indicating that Ye Yuchan and the others didn’t need to worry about him: “Having another group of people means having another direction, which makes the exploration much faster, doesn’t it?”

indeed.

When Gu Xingzhuo's words reached Ye Yuchan's ears, she pondered for a long time before nodding.

"Alright, senior brother, please be careful."

"rest assured."

Gu Xingzhu smiled slightly, then his gaze fell on Lu Yingqiu, who was already anxiously preparing to set off not far away.

"Once any group finds the exit, they come back here, right?"

Ye Yuchan nodded: "That's right. We'll meet back here in half an hour."

After all, this Lost Forest was unusually large, and they didn't have many ways to quickly find out each other's location, so they could only exchange information in this way.

not to mention……

Ye Yuchan's gaze lingered on Gu Xingzhuo. She hesitated for a second before revealing her discovery.

She didn't know if it was her imagination or what, but in any case, she felt quite unwell at that moment.

All she knew was that time was a major problem.

This isn't referring to the problems at Cloud Heaven Academy, but rather the problems in this Lost Forest of Death...

If we don't leave quickly, something bad might happen.

"Speaking of which—"

Just as everyone was preparing to leave.

Gu Xingzhuo suddenly called out to everyone with a serious expression.

"There's something I'd like to ask you all to pay attention to."

He was someone who had some knowledge of the Lost Forest, unlike Ye Yuchan and others who were hearing about it for the first time. Gu Xingzhuo at least knew some things about the Lost Forest.

That's why he had to speak out to warn others.

"What's wrong?" Zhang Ruoxue noticed that Gu Xingzhuo's expression was particularly unpleasant and serious. "Is there a problem, Senior Brother?"

"This is a very important issue, in fact... I think you've probably noticed it too."

Gu Xingzhuo paused, as if creating suspense.

"Just like when Junior Sister Yu Chan killed that fake teacher, in this Lost Forest of Death, our senses will be confused, so what we see is sometimes not real."

"Everything we see is random; it could be someone we know, or someone who is already dead, so..."

His sharp, blade-like gaze fell upon Ye Yuchan in front of him.

Gu Xingzhuo's words pierced everyone's hearts like needles.

"Among us..."

"It may also be an embodiment of resentment."

……

……

On the vast, desolate grasslands.

The sky was dark and gloomy, and a cold wind howled past.

Her silver hair was blown by the wind, and a hint of unwilling helplessness appeared on her delicate face.

"Doesn't this make it just like Werewolf?"

With a complaining tone, Ye Yuchan walked with her back hunched over, her body weak.

Beside her, as always, was a black-haired sailor-uniformed girl who had achieved physical immortality.

What is Werewolf?

Unsurprisingly, this question was raised.

Ye Yuchan glanced at Zhang Ruoxue, and only after seeing the girl's silly look did she breathe a sigh of relief.

Such a foolish look shouldn't be the result of resentment—after all, there aren't many foolish people in the world, and it would be extremely difficult to imitate.

Nice, Ruoxue. She's cleared of suspicion because she's an idiot.

Ye Yuchan waved her hand helplessly, not explaining her idea for this difficult game to Ruoxue at all: "This thing is very complicated. It's a game from my hometown. It involves emotional intelligence, IQ, eloquence, and observation skills. In short, it's very difficult."

"Oh~" Zhang Ruoxue nodded as if she understood, and after a while she exclaimed, "Yuchan, your hometown has such a rich variety of things!"

Ye Yuchan: "..."

Come to think of it, I used to call those words that Zhang Ruoxue couldn't understand "the dialect of my hometown."

Wow, Earthlings are really amazing.jpg

Because it was something she couldn't understand, Zhang Ruoxue decided to change the subject for the time being.

She looked at Ye Yuchan with a slightly puzzled expression, but a hint of curiosity flashed in her eyes.

"Speaking of which... Yu Chan, there's something I'm curious about."

"what's up?"

Ye Yuchan replied listlessly—she was still pondering who was more like a "werewolf" formed from resentment.

"So... Yu Chan, how did you know that teacher was fake?"

"Ah, that..."

Upon hearing this, Ye Yuchan paused, and then her face flushed crimson, as if she had applied powder.

"Ahem, well... intuition, intuition."

Actually, it's because when I stared at that old rogue's face, it looked so stiff, and I didn't feel my heart pounding or my heart racing.

That's right—

It's because I didn't feel any attraction to that old rogue that I thought it was fake.

But how could I possibly say such a thing?!

"Eh... it's intuition."

Faced with Ye Yuchan's lie, Zhang Ruoxue tilted her head.

In the end, he completely believed Ye Yuchan's words.

"Wow, this is the legendary woman's intuition! If that's the case, I should have it too, but why didn't I notice it..."

"These things... are all about fate." Ye Yuchan coughed awkwardly twice and quickly changed the subject: "Then guess intuitively, who is more likely to be a manifestation of resentment?"

"I?"

Zhang Ruoxue was taken aback upon hearing this, and then pondered for two seconds.

She slowly extended her hand, staring seriously at the silver-haired girl in front of her, pointing her finger at the girl.

"I think..."
