Douluo Continent: My Days in the Tang Sect.

Chapter 331 Investigate! Of course we must investigate!

Chapter 331 Investigate! Of course we must investigate!

Upon seeing the chains, Lin Jiayi assumed his identity as the Iron-Faced Director of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy.

A cold glint flashed across Lin Jiayi's face.

Lin Jiayi, now in "Iron-Faced Director Mode," kept his gaze fixed on Ye Nanxiao, completely ignoring Jing Hongchen, whose face was growing increasingly red.

Taking out a notebook, Lin Jiayi asked seriously, "Name!"

"Ye Nanxiao".

"From Shrek Academy?"

"Yes."

"On the day Mingdetang was attacked by terrorists, where were you? What did you see? What did you do?" Lin Jiayi stared straight at Ye Nanxiao's face, not missing a single facial expression.

Jing Hongchen was furious. Why was Lin Jiayi acting without considering her feelings after coming in?

However, after hearing Lin Jiayi ask the crucial question, Jing Hongchen also wanted to know what Ye Nanxiao had done at the time, so she turned her head slightly away and waited for Ye Nanxiao to finish answering before shooing Lin Jiayi away.

Ye Nanxiao put down the peeled apple and said, "I happened to be invited to Mingde Hall on the day it was attacked. I don't know exactly where it was. The laboratory was in the underground base. When it was attacked, I was drinking tea in that laboratory. Later, there was a strong earthquake, so I found a way to leave the laboratory and escape. I didn't see anything during that time. I didn't do anything except run away."

After hearing Ye Nanxiao's answer, Lin Jiayi frowned, gripped his pen tightly, tapped his notebook, and asked, "Did you enter any other laboratories during your escape?"

"No." Ye Nanxiao replied naturally.

"Alright, there's no need to ask any more questions," Jing Hongchen said.

Lin Jiayi then put away his stern-faced director demeanor.

Jing Hongchen coughed twice, looked at Ye Nanxiao, and said with a complicated expression, "I didn't expect that scoundrel to be so unprincipled and act so recklessly. Fortunately, you are unharmed, otherwise I would have made a grave mistake!"

"You don't need to say that, Master. The person is still alive, isn't he?" Ye Nanxiao smiled.

Jing Hongchen nodded and looked at Lin Jiayi, who immediately understood and walked out of the ward first.

"How did you get out?" Jing Hongchen asked. The person who had previously entered the Mingde Hall underground base to investigate told him that there was a tunnel running upwards through the base.

"I dug a tunnel. It was an emergency, so I hope the leader won't blame me for damaging the base facilities?" Ye Nanxiao replied with a standard smile.

Ye Nanxiao did not deny it. After all, the tunnel in the underground base still retained the aura of his ultimate ice. He was not afraid that Jing Hongchen would make trouble because he still had information about the Crimson Toad Emperor.

Jing Hongchen gave Ye Nanxiao a deep look, then shook her head. "Of course not, it's good that he's alright."

He was somewhat surprised. The underground base was constructed using specially made, exceptionally sturdy materials; even the most common materials were high-quality steel plates.

The tunnel that Ye Nanxiao dug almost runs through the entire underground base, so just how much skill does this young man in front of us have hidden?

Jing Hongchen suppressed his surprise, leaving only admiration; Ye Nanxiao's excellence was beyond his imagination.

"Keep going, Mengmeng! Grandpa will do everything he can to support you!"

Before leaving the ward, Ye Nanxiao glanced back at Huo Yuhao, who was still asleep. "Let's ask him about the Ice Bear King when he wakes up."

In Huo Yuhao's spiritual sea.

The Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm rolled its plump body to the Ice Bear King's small bead, its chubby paws drawing circles, sealing the bead layer by layer.

"Damn bug, are you done yet? Can Shiro come out now?" Hyotei asked impatiently from the side.

"Almost there, almost there, all done!" Tianmeng Ice Silkworm pointed at the Ice Bear King's small bead, and several golden circles fell around the Ice Bear King's small bead.

A miniature bear suddenly appeared from the small bead, looking around blankly.

Huo Yuhao leaned closer to get a glimpse of the Ice Bear King's true appearance.

"Such a tiny bear, why does it look a bit silly?" Huo Yuhao thought to himself.

Ice Emperor slapped away the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm and asked the Ice Bear King, "Little White! Why are you here? Inside that damned soul tool?"

Tianmeng Ice Silkworm also asked, "Yeah, Lao Bai, what are you doing here!"

The Ice Bear King scratched his head, looking somewhat bewildered, a stark contrast to his previous ferocious expression as he threatened to self-destruct above the Mingde Hall.

"Well, I was following my mother's instructions, staying at home all day either cultivating or gnawing on marrow ice. But one day, after I finished gnawing on marrow ice, I thought I'd get some fresh air after dinner, so I went out, and then I saw a pillar of light descending from the distant mountain..."

"When I saw that pillar of light, I felt my blood surging. There was something in that pillar that particularly attracted me, so I climbed up the mountain and went to the place where the pillar of light fell to take a look."

The Ice Bear King held his head with both paws, carefully recalling the events.

"Where the pillar of light was growing a small, emerald-green grass, plump with sap and looking delicious, so I ate it. After eating it, when I returned home to cultivate, a surge of energy erupted within me. That energy made me feel incredibly hot, so I frantically gnawed on the marrow ice. Even after finishing it, I still felt like my body was on fire, and then I lost my mind and ran out of the house!"

"I ran for who knows how long, and when I regained my senses, I found myself actually starting to take on human form!"

The Ice Bear King said with a puzzled look, "I was stuck at a bottleneck for a long time, and my mother couldn't find a way to help me advance further, but that herb allowed me to transform! When I was halfway through my transformation, a group of humans suddenly appeared and captured me! And that's how I met you all."

The Ice Bear King's words silenced the two spirits present.

"A blade of grass? You think eating it will turn you into a human?" Hyotei asked with a serious expression.

"Do you remember what that grass looked like?" Tianmeng Bingcan asked.

The Ice Bear King thought about it carefully and gestured to show what the grass looked like.

"Transformation Grass? Isn't that the legendary immortal herb? You found it as soon as you left your house?" Tianmeng Ice Silkworm exclaimed.

Huo Yuhao blinked, feeling that it was a bit strange that the Ice Bear King had obtained the Transformation Grass in such a muddled way, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.

Is it really such a coincidence?

He remembered that the Transformation Grass was an extremely rare and precious herb!

Huo Yuhao even once thought that it only existed in the fragments in the library!

Soon, Huo Yuhao stopped worrying. The traces of the Transformation Grass were extremely difficult to find, and the Ice Bear King was probably just lucky.

Ye Nanxiao followed Jing Hongchen to a classroom in the teaching area of ​​the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy.

The Shrek Academy students who weren't on missions all sat in their seats, their expressions identical: calm.

When Ye Nanxiao walked into the classroom, everyone's eyes were on him.

A teacher from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy was loudly complaining to Lin Jiayi that the Shrek Academy students were not cooperating at all.

"These Shrek people are completely uncooperative with the inspection. This is His Highness's personal order; anyone who refuses to cooperate will be prosecuted for treason!"

The teacher then pointed at Ye Xiaosheng, who was sitting at the very front, and said, "You still say we're not qualified! This is the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy! It's not a place where you muscle-bound martial arts soul masters can break the rules at will!"

Ye Xiaosheng's face remained expressionless as he calmly looked at the furious teacher, his eyes filled with disdain.

Ye Nanxiao glanced at the teacher, snorted coldly, and said, "It seems your academy's teachers are quite dedicated. Judging from this, they must have had a lot of trouble dealing with disobedient students. They've even shaved their heads to appear more authoritative!"

"Who!!" The teacher, whose sore spot had been hit, immediately turned around and stared intently at Ye Nanxiao. He had long been troubled by his Mediterranean hairstyle.

Upon seeing Jing Hongchen, the balding teacher calmed down and walked to Jing Hongchen's side, saying, "Master, these people are uncooperative and have a very bad attitude. I suggest we report this to the Royal Inspectorate so they can interrogate them!"

Ye Nanxiao walked over to Ye Xiaosheng and patted him on the shoulder. "Well done. You can even stay calm when facing a clown."

"Phew, Brother Xiao once said that smart people don't show their emotions! I'm a top student at Shrek Academy! How could I be provoked by a clown?" Ye Xiaosheng said deliberately in a strange tone.

"Master, look! These people are completely disregarding our Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy! I'll contact the Royal Inspectorate right now!" The Mediterranean teacher's face turned bright red.

"Enough!" Jing Hongchen raised her hand to stop the Mediterranean teacher from speaking.

If it weren't for this person's familial ties with the royal family, Jing Hongchen would have dismissed him long ago.

Do you think you, a mere teacher, can just reprimand the Shrek students?

Having a royal connection, you've been a teacher for so many years and you're still just an ordinary teacher. Don't you know your own limitations?

Seeing Jing Hongchen's slightly warning look, the Mediterranean teacher was very unwilling. He snorted coldly, stood aside, and looked at Ye Nanxiao with resentment in his eyes.

Ever since his sister was taken as a concubine by a prince, his status has risen accordingly. In the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy, who doesn't give him face?

Noticing the bald man's gaze, Ye Nanxiao's face flashed with a murderous intent. He coldly glanced at him and asked in a chilling voice, "You want to investigate, right? You'll cooperate, right?"

"Investigate! Of course we should investigate!"

The cold tone made Lin Jiayi and Jing Hongchen frown; it seemed Ye Nanxiao was not going to let things go easily.

When Ye Nanxiao's icy gaze swept over him, the Mediterranean teacher felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave. His hair stood on end, his heart pounded, and his brain was filled with signals of fear.

The Mediterranean teacher felt as if he were being watched by an ancient beast, and his back was instantly covered in cold sweat.

Everyone in the classroom felt the terrifying aura emanating from Ye Nanxiao.

A bead of sweat rolled down Lin Jiayi's forehead, his eyes filled with undisguised shock.

"This...this is Shrek Academy's prized student? The aura he exudes is enough to frighten even me!"

Jing Hongchen stepped forward, blocking all of Ye Nanxiao's overwhelming aura, and said with a somewhat unpleasant expression, "Nanxiao, please understand our difficulties."

"Master of the Red Dust Hall, we understand you're facing difficulties, but cooperating with you doesn't mean you can treat us however you want!"

"The people of Shrek Academy are upright and honest. We understand your difficulties and are willing to cooperate when necessary. However, that doesn't mean we're pushovers. I've always believed in the saying, 'When friends come, I have fine wine and food; but when wolves come, I also have axes and hunting rifles!'"

The undisguised tone made Jing Hongchen and Lin Jiayi's expressions even more unpleasant.

Jing Hongchen glared at the balding teacher, forcing a smile, and said, "This is a serious mistake on their part! And also a mistake on my part as the dean. How about this: from today onwards, all Shrek Academy students who enter the Mingde Hall will have their monthly rare metal allocation doubled? How does that sound?"

Upon hearing that the rare metal quota had been doubled, Ye Nanxiao toned down his imposing manner, pointed at the balding teacher, and said, "The hall master's conditions are quite good, but first of all, this teacher, who seems to know nothing about teaching, should apologize for his rudeness!"

Ye Xiaosheng then shouted, "Apologize!"

Then, one by one, the Shrek Academy students stood up, clenched their fists, and a sense of pride belonging to Shrek Academy rose within them. They all shouted loudly, "Apologize!"

The Mediterranean teacher was used to being domineering and had never seen such a scene before. Under Ye Nanxiao's gaze, his legs couldn't help but tremble. After all, he was just a level seven soul master.

Jing Hongchen made a hand gesture to Lin Jiayi, who immediately walked to the balding teacher's side and used his soul power to transmit a message, saying, "If you don't want to lose your job and be thrown into the dungeon, you'd better apologize right now!"

"Yes, I'm sorry!" The Mediterranean teacher quickly bowed and apologized.

Faced with Shrek Academy's strong stance and Jing Hongchen's silent concession, even the dim-witted Mediterranean teacher could see that Jing Hongchen had given up on himself.

Ye Nanxiao's ferocious eyes lingered in his mind.

"Take him away!" Jing Hongchen waved his hand and said.

Lin Jiayi immediately dragged the Mediterranean-looking teacher away.

"Satisfied now?" Jing Hongchen said irritably.

"What satisfaction? I'm a reasonable person! We intellectuals have principles!" Ye Nanxiao immediately reverted to his usual playful demeanor.

"That's right, we're intellectuals! We have principles!" The students immediately chimed in, all smiling as they took out their storage soul tools.

One by one, storage soul tools were placed in Ye Nanxiao's hands.

"Master, go ahead and check it. There might be some things inside that children shouldn't see, but we're all a bunch of passionate young people. You should understand, right?" Ye Nanxiao chuckled.

Jing Hongchen swept his large hand over it, and his spiritual power immediately surged into the pile of storage soul tools.

After a moment, Jing Hongchen nodded to Ye Nanxiao, "Alright, I can confirm that you are all fine."

Ye Nanxiao tossed the storage soul tool to Ye Xiaosheng, instructing him to distribute it back.

"I'll be leaving now. There's still a lot of work to be done in rebuilding Mingde Hall." Jing Hongchen sighed softly, and then his figure disappeared from the spot.

"Brother Xiao, what exactly happened in this attack? Why don't you tell us? Tell us about how Mingdetang suffered a loss, so we can have a good laugh too!" Ye Xiaosheng said with a smile.

"Alright, alright, what are you talking about? Would I tell you about how they got beaten up and ran away like rats? Would I tell you about how their prized soul tools were reduced to scrap metal in a few moves? I'm not the kind of person who gloats!"

"If there's nothing else, everyone can go home. But remember, we're not afraid of trouble. If anything happens, Teacher Fanyu will take care of it for us!" Ye Nanxiao said seriously.

Many Shrek Academy students smiled and left in twos and threes.

Fan Yu, who was on his way to the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy, sneezed violently.
