Could it be that they were still affected by the resentment just now?

Helian Wei Wei thought about it and called out, "Yuan Xiaoming."

"Here." Yuan Ming's low voice appeared. It sounded deeper than its normal mischievous self.

Helian Wei Wei raised her eyebrows. "Are you still unwell?"

"No." Yuan Ming's lips curled as he revealed himself indistinctly. "Woman, where did you learn that spell you cast at the auction?"

Helian Wei Wei paused her footsteps and glanced back at him. "If I said that I have seen a similar spell somewhere, would you believe me?"

Yuan Ming stared at her for a bit and chuckled wickedly. "I believe you. I just can't believe I entered into a contract with an exorcist. No wonder those elders named you the Phoenix Girl."

"It was not me who was named the Phoenix Girl. It was Helian Jiao Er." Helian Wei Wei shrugged her shoulders.

Yuan Ming's thin lips broadened. "Woman, you misunderstood me. I was referring to the brilliancy of the exorcists. To ensure reincarnation, they led humanity to believe the legend of the Phoenix Girl's reign. In actual fact, the Phoenix Girl is merely a descendant of the exorcists."

"According to the prophecy of the ancient books, an exorcist's descendant would not reincarnate easily unless the world is facing chaos and the invasion of demons," Whitey spoke up too, his gaze was cold. "Now that the Eight Trigrams Exorcism Chart has reappeared, it means that someone is trying to destroy the Taichi Seal that has been used to suppress the demons. Someone is keen on releasing all the demons and spirits that are locked in the underworld. For hundreds and thousands of years, that Taichi Seal is the reason mankind could live in peace. If the seal is damaged, it would be similar to unlocking a portal for darkness to enter. The demons would be able to kill without restraint; for to them, men are nothing but the tastiest food ever..."

Helian Wei Wei caught the gist immediately. "So, do you mean everything the enemy is doing, including Murong Hongtu's intention to destroy the peaceful Qi, is to destroy the Taichi Seal?"

"It's greatly possible." Whitey nodded.

Helian Wei Wei squinted her eyes. "Looks like we have to find the dean and tell him everything we are aware of."

"Yes." Whitey retracted his body.

Helian Wei Wei was deep in thought as she trudged ahead. The lighting was bad once she went underground. Someone had lighted the oil lamps. The flickering of the faint candlelight in the depth of the tunnel made the atmosphere seem spooky and terrifying.

Helian Wei Wei frowned. Her footsteps were already gentle, but they were still loud in the narrow and windy tunnel. It made her feel uncomfortable, for it was as if something else was watching her.

However, this was the only route to the underground palace. Fortunately, the tunnel was not long. In a blink of an eye, Helian Wei Wei had arrived at the previous meeting point.

However, Yun Biluo and the rest were evidently not back yet.

Tu Sufeng was not here either.

Strange, did they not agree to meet at this place after the test?

"I didn't expect you to be the first to return." A rather dense voice appeared behind her.

Helian Wei Wei turned around and saw an instructor pacing over with a scroll in his hand. He sat on the sandalwood chair like Tu Sufeng did and poured tea for two. "Sit."
