She knew that if Jiang Chen hadn't been there today, she wouldn't have survived this family civil war.

Song Yiyi really wanted to say thank you.

But then she thought, if it weren't for Jiang Chen, her grandfather wouldn't have died.

And none of this would have happened today.

"Thank you" lingered on her lips, but ultimately, she didn't say it.

Besides "thank you," she didn't know how else to express Jiang Chen's life-saving grace.

In the end, she said nothing, frozen in place, unable to leave, just standing foolishly behind Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen, however, didn't notice this.

Seeing Song Yiyi still standing there, he asked, "Song Yiyi, there's something very important I want to ask you."

Important?

Song Yiyi's mind raced. The most important things between her and Jiang Chen, besides her grandfather's matter, was his confession to her.

Thinking about his confession, she felt she might like Jiang Chen a little.

Otherwise, why would he risk his life to save her?

Thinking that Jiang Chen truly, truly liked her.

Song Yiyi's little heart couldn't stop pounding.

However, Jiang Chen was the murderer of her grandfather. There was a blood feud between them.

How could she possibly like him?

Then another voice in her heart said, Song Yiyi, Jiang Chen did nothing wrong. After all, her grandfather had already degenerated into a demon. If Jiang Chen hadn't acted, who knows how many more people would have died at the hands of demons.

He was just doing what a Supernatural Ability user should do.

He wasn't wrong at all.

Jiang Chen found Song Yiyi's expression, nodding and shaking her head one moment and then looking troubled the next, rather baffling.

Her expression was too obvious; he couldn't ignore it.

However, this didn't affect Jiang Chen.

He really needed to ask Song Yiyi something.

"Song Yiyi, do you know where the main body of the Super S-Class demon is?"

Hearing Jiang Chen's question, Song Yiyi was caught off guard and didn't react immediately.

She paused, stunned.

Only after Jiang Chen repeated his question did she snap back to attention.

"Song Yiyi, do you know where the main body of the Super S-Class demon is?"

At this moment, Song Yiyi felt a pang of disappointment.

So she had been mistaken.

The important matter Jiang Chen spoke of had nothing to do with her.

She suppressed her inner disappointment and asked, "Why are you asking this question?"

Jiang Chen then told Song Yiyi what he knew.

After listening to Jiang Chen, Song Yiyi immediately felt the gravity of the situation.

"You're saying the danger to this city hasn't passed."

"Yes!"

"Now that the Super S-Class demon has awakened, just destroying the Demon's Heart isn't enough; we must also destroy its true form to eliminate it completely."

Jiang Chen continued, "So, I need you to tell me where its true form is. I will destroy it myself."

Song Yiyi shook her head after hearing this and said, "I'm afraid you can't do it."

"Unless you have the strength of a Saint, neither your strength nor mine is enough to completely destroy the Super S-Class demon."

"You just need to tell me where the Super S-Class demon's main body is!"

Jiang Chen naturally knew that the Super S-Class demon's true form was hard and difficult to destroy, but the issue now wasn't whether it was possible, but that it had to be destroyed.

Otherwise, this city would truly be finished.

"It's beneath the school."

"Suppressed by the school's sealing formation."

"And..." Song Yiyi thought for a moment and said, "Only the Purple Ring can open the seal on the secret passage leading underground from the Principal's office."

"Jiang Chen, I've told you everything I know. What else do you want to know? I don't know anything else."

"That's all. Thank you."

"When I need it, I hope you can help me open the seal of the underground secret passage."

After speaking, Jiang Chen glanced at the sky and said, "It's not early. I'll go back first. Senior Song will help you handle everything here. There's nothing for me to do anymore."

Song Aotian, being called out by Jiang Chen, immediately objected, "When did I say I would stay here to help clean up the mess?"

"Help people to the end. You've already helped once, it won't hurt to help a second time."

"Besides, this is the Song Family's territory. As an Ancestor of the Song Family, you can't just leave the young girl here alone to face these jackals and wolves, can you?"

"Alright, actually, I was thinking the same thing."

Song Aotian had also considered whether to stay and help Song Yiyi. After all, she was still a young girl.

Facing such complicated matters, if handled poorly, it would be an abyss.

He could help this time, but it didn't mean he could help the next time.

After all, he was a soul body and could disappear at any moment.

Since he couldn't help every time, he might as well not help at all.

But when Jiang Chen spoke, he followed his words and stayed.

He would help this little girl once.

Song Yiyi was very touched. She hadn't expected Jiang Chen to be so thoughtful.

Actually, Jiang Chen wasn't being thoughtful; he just didn't want a ghost following him late at night.

After arranging things here.

Jiang Chen left directly using Flash Step.

When he arrived at his doorstep, he found that the lights in the house were still on.

He checked the time; it was ten o'clock at night.

So late, Xiao Lan wasn't asleep yet?

Her health was poor, she absolutely couldn't stay up late.

Thinking this, Jiang Chen walked to the door, took out his key, and turned the lock a few times.

The moment he opened the door.

A dark figure rushed into his arms.

Xiao Lan clung to Jiang Chen's chest and asked, "Brother, why are you only getting back now? I almost thought something happened to you!"

Zhang Banxian stood behind Xiao Lan. Seeing Jiang Chen return, he also breathed a sigh of relief.

He had been in contact with Fatty and knew Jiang Chen had left during dinner.

When he called Jiang Chen's phone, it didn't connect.

He assumed something had happened.

As for what had happened, Zhang Banxian didn't know.

He really wanted to go out alone to find Uncle-Master Jiang.

But with Xiao Lan here, he couldn't leave.

He could only wait anxiously by himself.

Perhaps sensing his anxiety.

Xiao Lan also felt something.

She kept asking, "Zhang Banxian, did something happen to my brother?"

Zhang Banxian naturally couldn't say anything, to avoid her worrying about Jiang Chen.

Several hours passed.

When Jiang Chen appeared before him unharmed.

Zhang Banxian also breathed a sigh of relief.

He said, "It's good that you're okay!"

"Yes, of course, I'm fine!"

Jiang Chen pulled Xiao Lan away and said to her, "I was delayed by something in the middle. It's nothing major, don't cry."

Xiao Lan wiped her tears with her hand and said, "This is the first time you've come back so late without telling me where you were going."

"It made me have a bad feeling."

"It's okay, aren't I standing right in front of you now!"

"It's good that you're okay!"

Xiao Lan carefully examined Jiang Chen.

Only after confirming he was unharmed did she relax.

"Then, Brother, why did you come back so late?"

Xiao Lan asked.

Jiang Chen said, "General Pagoda was looking for me. He had something to discuss. After all, your brother is a big celebrity around General Pagoda right now."

Xiao Lan pouted and said, "Brother, if you don't tell me the truth, I'm going to get angry!!!"
