Xuan Zi's Terror, and Shao Zhe's Background?

"Alright." Da Ming nodded.

He reached out and carefully supported Wang Dong'er.

Wang Dong'er was already weak to the extreme, with barely any strength left in her body. She could only lean against Da Ming.

Da Ming steadied her, then prepared to take her away and return to Shrek Academy.

But before leaving, Da Ming slowly turned his head, his gaze settling on Long Wushang.

That look carried profound meaning.

Even if you might know the truth, so what?

Even if the real killer might be standing right before you, so what?

There was no evidence. No one was willing to stand by his side, and even the most crucial person had chosen silence.

What could he do? Strike directly now?

But if he did, even if he could kill Long Wushang, the negative repercussions for Shrek Academy and the Clear Sky Sect would be enormous.

Besides, all he had were his own suspicions. Without evidence, he had no way to make a move against Long Wushang openly.

So he could only watch. He could only watch helplessly as a murderer he was nearly certain of stood before him, while he could do nothing to the other man.

This feeling... was truly suffocating.

Da Ming gave Long Wushang a deep look. In the end, he said nothing. He turned around, supported Wang Dong'er, and slowly left.

From beginning to end, Wang Dong'er did not turn back to look at Long Wushang even once.

Only after the two figures had completely vanished from sight did Xuan Zi finally let out a breath.

He stood where he was and first swept his gaze around the area.

After checking both sides and confirming that no one else was nearby, nor were there any prying eyes in the shadows, he finally relaxed a little.
