Chapter 346: 346 Only She Can’t (Part 4)

Dai Yu bit her lip tightly, unable to understand what was so good about Chu Jin.

It was bad enough that Mr. Mo protected her.

Now, even Lord Ghost was protecting her!

What kind of background did she have!

The man in black spoke again, "Remember what I said today, the plan shall proceed as usual. At the critical moment, anyone can be sacrificed, except for her! Even if it means sacrificing yourself, you must protect her!"

She had been serving Lord Ghost for over ten years, yet in the end, she was still not as important as someone from the secular world!

For Chu Jin, Lord Ghost would even consider sacrificing himself!

Dai Yu bit her lip, with hatred churning in her eyes, unwilling to accept this.

"Did you hear that?" The man in black’s figure turned into an afterimage, once again gripping Dai Yu’s neck, his voice fierce, like a devil.

Dai Yu immediately snapped back to reality, fear evident in her eyes. The man’s strength was enormous, as if he could snap her neck in the next second. At that moment, she couldn’t speak and could only nod desperately.

"Get lost!" The man said coldly, flinging Dai Yu against a pine tree.

Bang!

The pine tree snapped in half.

Dai Yu clutched her chest, spitting out a mouthful of fresh blood.

One could imagine how much force the man in black had used.

The man in black snorted coldly and then his body turned into an afterimage, vanishing into the pine forest.

Dai Yu, clutching her chest, knelt on one knee, her voice weak, "Farewell, Lord Ghost!"

Only when she no longer felt the presence of the man in black did Dai Yu slowly let out a sigh of relief, raising her hand to wipe the blood from the corner of her mouth.

A purplish-red bruise marred her fair neck, the color stark against her pale skin, making it look somewhat grotesque.

Because of her severe injuries, Dai Yu had no choice but to sit under a pine tree, close her eyes, and heal herself through meditation.

Just then, a calling voice came from the forest.

"Yu’er/Junior Sister..."

"Where are you?"

Dai Yu abruptly opened her eyes, stood up with the support of the pine tree, and touched her neck to erase the hideous bruise.

"Master, Senior Brother, I’m here..." Dai Yu walked unsteadily toward the source of the voice.

"Junior Sister!" The young man saw Dai Yu and took three steps in two, rushing to her side and supporting her shoulders, "What happened to you, Junior Sister? Who hurt you like this?"

Sorrow filled the young man’s eyes.

At that moment, Dai Yu was powerless, her steps unsteady, like a damaged doll.

Dai Yu mustered a faint smile toward him, her voice weak, "I’m alright, Senior Brother. You don’t need to worry. Where’s Master?"

"Master is ahead. I’ll take you to him." The young man didn’t hesitate to pick Dai Yu up and quickly moved forward.

Dai Yu’s head tilted, and she fell unconscious in the arms of the young man.

Elder Xu Kong stood in the forest, holding a black compass in his hand. The compass’s needle spun chaotically, and wisps of black smoke emitted from it, his expression serious, as if searching for something.

After a while, Elder Xu Kong stroked his beard and muttered to himself, "Could it be that he has been here?" A sharp glint flashed through his eyes, belying his advanced age.

When Elder Xu Kong saw Dai Yu, he too was taken aback and quickly checked her pulse, his voice heavy, "How did you get so seriously injured?"

After infusing some spiritual power into Dai Yu, Elder Xu Kong slowly said, "Changyi, take Yu’er back to heal first. Your master will follow shortly."

"As you command, Master." Changyi bowed respectfully and then left with Dai Yu.

Elder Xu Kong held the compass and walked deeper into the forest.

The Ghost Qi here was too intense.

And exceedingly brazen, without a hint of concealment.

With the emergence of Lord Ghost in the mortal world, the three realms may be thrown into chaos!

Elder Xu Kong sighed with concern.

He had to find a way to stop this catastrophe.

Otherwise, the human world would suffer, with plagues rampant!

South Bridge No.2 Middle School.

At noon, after school was dismissed, Chu Jin walked proudly towards the cafeteria.

Miao Xinran had already gone ahead to get her meal.

Along the way, many boys whistled and made faces at her, trying their best to attract Chu Jin’s attention, while the girls looked on with envy.

Of course, this also included looks of disdain and contempt.

But Chu Jin filtered out all the malice, walking through the crowd with the pride of a peacock spreading its feathers.

For the first time in her life, she experienced what it felt like to be above others.

"Attention-seeking! Flirting shamelessly, truly disgraceful!"

"Wow, I never realized how pretty she was before, and she has such an elegant demeanor! She’s ten times more beautiful than the school beauty!"

"Hmph, that face is obviously fake! Don’t compare just anyone with our Xiaoyue! Is she even worthy?"

"As long as you have money, you can be that pretty too."

"Oh, why does this smell so sour? Some people just can’t stand seeing others do well."

"I heard that there will be a TV station coming to interview her tomorrow..."

"Really?"

"Of course, it’s true!"

"Yo, a TV station coming to interview? Is she aiming to become an actress?"

"..."

The mix of voices made Chu Jin lift her chin even higher.

Wang Kai watched the figure in front with an undisguised look of admiration in his eyes, truly a girl worth his attention!

She could remain calm and composed in the face of such talk!

She had presence!

In the crowd, a short-haired girl clenched her fists, a fierce glint flashing in her eyes, "Little bitch, needs to be put in her place!"

In the cafeteria, Miao Xinran had already gotten her food and was waiting at the table for her.

Seeing Chu Jin approach, her eyes lit up, and she immediately stood up from the table, "Jin, over here."

Even though today’s Jin seemed a bit off, Miao Xinran still regarded her as a close friend from the bottom of her heart.

Chu Jin gave Miao Xinran a glance, leaned over to sit across from her, and when she saw the food on the tray, her eyebrows furrowed tightly, "Let’s swap our meals, I want to eat what you have."

"Why?" Miao Xinran asked with some confusion.

Chu Jin didn’t elaborate and simply switched the trays between them, then contently picked up a spoon and began to eat.

Miao Xinran watched Chu Jin with surprise.

Clang! A sound.

Miao Xinran’s elbow accidentally knocked her tray onto the floor.

The crisp sound drew the gazing of many fellow students.

Chu Jin laughed softly, bent down to pick up the tray, and chided, "Xinran, how could you be so careless."

At that moment.

Miao Xinran was filled with confusion.

Because neither the previous Chu Jin nor the current Chu Jin liked carrots.

Yet the Chu Jin in front of her was eating them happily...

This was very unusual!

Can a person’s handwriting change, their personality change, and even their tastes change?

Moreover, Chu Jin didn’t just dislike carrots; she was allergic to them.

Miao Xinran steadied her emotions and continued, "Jin, do you remember our promise from year three?"

Chu Jin smiled faintly, "Of course I remember."

Miao Xinran smiled, her tone as calm as possible, "Then don’t forget, okay? After our college entrance exams, the three of us will go to the island to play together."

Chu Jin nodded, "I won’t forget, of course."

Miao Xinran narrowed her eyes, a keen light flashing through them as she stared intently at Chu Jin and spoke with certainty, "You’re not Jin!"

Her voice was very calm.

Now Miao Xinran could almost confirm that the person in front of her was definitely not Chu Jin.

Because between the three of them, there was no such promise to go to an island after the college entrance exams.

Just now, she was merely testing Chu Jin.

"Xinran, what kind of joke are you playing at?" Chu Jin’s expression remained normal.

No panic showed because of Miao Xinran’s words.

What if Miao Xinran discovered the truth?

The real Chu Jin had vanished, and now, she was Chu Jin.

And now, she had the powerful backing of Madame Jiu.

Even if it got to a hospital, doctors wouldn’t find any problems.

Who could prove that she wasn’t Chu Jin?

That little bitch Chu Jin had been missing for so long, she was probably dead already.

Now, no one could threaten her!

She had been displeased with Miao Xinran for a long time, and it would be a good thing for them to finally clash openly.

It would save her the effort of pretending every day.

"Who the hell are you?" Miao Xinran stared straight at Chu Jin, her eyes sharp.

The corners of Chu Jin’s mouth turned up in a faint smirk.

Leaning in close to Miao Xinran’s ear, her low, provocative whisper, "What does it matter if I’m not Chu Jin? Do you think... here, who would believe your wild stories?"
