"As I suspected, Chi Yu is not the problem; the problem lies with you."

Ever since he saw Professor Chi's file, Wu Wei had felt that something was off about him.

Twenty years ago, Professor Chi was merely an unremarkable university graduate.

Although his grades were decent, he had never been particularly outstanding.

Yet, after he got married, he seemed to be reborn, his reputation in the industry rising rapidly.

This situation reached its peak after his wife passed away.

He had become an authority in the field of biology at Imperial Capital University, gaining a measure of fame both domestically and internationally.

A person can undergo a transformation, but Professor Chi's transformation had come a bit late.

Most importantly, Wu Wei had been unable to find any information regarding Professor Chi's wife, who had existed briefly before vanishing just as quickly.

This was unscientific, especially for someone like Wu Wei.

There were truly very few people he could not investigate.

Wu Wei did not believe that Professor Chi's wife was as mysterious as his own mother.

Therefore, there was definitely a problem here.

Judging by Professor Chi's reaction, there was indeed a problem.

"Student Wu Wei, do you know when a beast is at its most dangerous?" Professor Chi asked.

"When it is injured, especially when the beast realizes it has no way out; it will then spare no cost to drag others down to die with it."

"So, since we have no prior grievances, why not keep it that way? You walk your broad road, and I'll walk my narrow path."

Wu Wei raised an eyebrow.

He knew that Professor Chi was about to reveal his true colors.

He certainly had secrets that absolutely could not be known by others.

For the sake of these, he would even resort to murder.

However, if he could safely survive this ordeal, Professor Chi certainly would not want to take action.

After all, few people were willing to spend the rest of their lives in Six Fan Gate.

"Please believe me, I have no desire to be your enemy," Wu Wei said very earnestly.

Professor Chi's face turned even darker.

Communication between smart people is always simple.

"I don't like 'buts'."

"But there really is a 'but'."

Wu Wei felt quite helpless as well.

Because Wu Xie had told him that Professor Chi must be purified.

He was a super unstable factor, even more unstable than Wang Zixuan.

Currently, Wu Xie's delivery progress had reached 3/10; taking care of Professor Chi would allow for further advancement.

Wu Wei could not give up.

Moreover, based on his experience, the things Wu Xie targeted were indeed never anything good.

After all, Wu Xie's goal was to make the world prosperous, democratic, civilized, harmonious, free, equal, just, ruled by law, patriotic, dedicated, honest, and friendly.

Wu Wei was willing to strive for such a world.

"Professor Chi, the Heavenly Dao has its cycles; who has Heaven ever spared? You have done too many evil deeds. If I don't collect, I would be failing my own conscience."

Having found a high-sounding excuse for himself, Wu Wei suddenly felt his entire body filled with the power of justice.

Professor Chi laughed in extreme anger: "Do you think you have me cornered?"

"In fact, I do. Professor Chi, you understand that a deathbed struggle won't solve anything. Everything that needs to arrive has already arrived."

Wu Wei placed his Bluetooth headset on the tea table. Upon seeing this, Professor Chi seemed to lose all his spirit and energy in an instant.

He knew that Wu Wei had indeed arranged everything.

Although he was quite powerful, this world was no longer a place he could trample upon at will.

He didn't even dare to rashly move against the ant before him.

Because this was the land of Great Qin.

And Wu Wei was a citizen of Great Qin.

Often, death is not the most painful thing.

He did not dare to risk it all.

"Let's talk, Professor Chi. When did you start becoming a pervert? Is cross-dressing really that addictive?"

Professor Chi let out a long sigh, "You really did know everything."

"Many of your women's clothes were bought online, and the internet holds basically no secrets from me," Wu Wei said calmly.

He gave himself 101 points for that display of arrogance, not worried about getting too cocky.

Professor Chi smiled without a word, turned around, and walked into his bedroom.

Wu Wei followed him inside.

Several pieces of women's clothing were laid out on the bed.

Right in front of Wu Wei, Professor Chi changed into the women's clothing and then began applying makeup at the vanity.

His movements were so practiced that it was clear he was extremely experienced.

Wu Wei was filled with admiration.

Especially after Professor Chi finished his makeup.

Professor Chi, in a flowing long dress, spun around in front of Wu Wei and asked, "Am I beautiful?"

Wu Wei exclaimed from the bottom of his heart, "Your appearance in women's clothing is enough to make any woman despair."

As expected, when a man becomes charming, there is truly nothing left for women to do.

If his own willpower hadn't been so firm, he might have even been turned by Professor Chi.

Whatever Xuanmo Baby was, he was just a little brother compared to Professor Chi.

It was truly beautiful.

So beautiful that it almost didn't seem human.

Wait...

Wu Wei suddenly shivered.

This look... why was it so familiar?

Why... did it look so much like that photograph he had seen of Professor Chi's deceased wife?

"My appearance in women's clothing is naturally the most stunning in the world, for our clan has always been famous for its beauty."

Wu Wei's pupils dilated uncontrollably.

"Wu Wei, don't you want to know the truth? Have you still not guessed it by now?"

At this moment, Professor Chi's voice had transformed into a woman's voice.

A stormy sea surged within Wu Wei's heart.

"You are not Professor Chi."

"You killed Professor Chi, then turned into him and lived as him for all these years."

Wu Wei could no longer remain calm.

He had originally thought Professor Chi was a ruthless man who killed his wife to achieve the Dao.

He hadn't expected him to be a demon who killed her husband to achieve the Dao.

Yes, a demon.

Famous for beauty and capable of shapeshifting at will—what else could it be but a demon?

Bewitching hearts and minds, open-minded in its ways—as expected, this was of the fox spirit lineage.

"Professor Chi had such great audacity, actually daring to engage in a union between human and demon; he was truly controlled by his lower half."

"He loved you so much that he was willing to break the laws of Great Qin. How could you bear to kill him?"

Wu Wei looked at "Professor Chi," wanting an answer.

"Professor Chi" gave a sorrowful, beautiful smile, though it was unclear if it was out of mockery or regret.

"His love for me was likely sincere. But in the end, the person he loved most was still himself."

"He promised to love me for a lifetime, claiming that no matter what happened, he would stay with me forever."

"Liars, they are all liars. Men are all liars."

"Professor Chi's" emotions suddenly became agitated.

Wu Wei's expression turned somewhat strange.

It seems that whether human or demon, it is very easy to get cheated on.

"I was just caught in bed with another man when he cornered me, and he actually wanted to go to the authorities to report my identity as a fox spirit."

"Since he was so heartless, how could I not fulfill his wish to seek death?"

"Professor Chi's" shrill voice continued to ring in Wu Wei's ears.

Wu Wei: "(¬_¬)"

What a truly unrestrained and freedom-loving fox spirit.
