New Feature / An All-Too-Leisurely Study Trip

He is now a master of the Origin Transformation Realm; otherwise, he wouldn't be able to get involved in this mission.

Ling Mengxue smiled and shook her head. "It's alright, everyone's inside. You guys handle it."

"Alright! Take care, Detective Ling!" Yi Yun waved goodbye immediately, a hint of excitement in his eyes. There was a big fish in the intelligence for this mission; if he could snag one, he'd make a fortune!

Ling Mengxue knew exactly what he was thinking. She suddenly turned around and smiled, "When we get back, I need to see at least 90% of the bonus."

"Uh... absolutely! Do you think I'm the kind of person who would hoard a bounty for myself?" Yi Yun gave an awkward smile, not expecting to be discovered after all.

The two female agents next to him couldn't help but chuckle. "When Brother Yi teamed up with us, he always took 70% of the profits. How come he's become so obedient now?"

Yi Yun smiled but didn't answer. He only breathed a sigh of relief after seeing the person off. Putting aside the fact that this was someone else's spoils of war, he wouldn't have said anything even if he didn't get a tenth of the reward. He hadn't put in much effort; he was just there to handle the follow-up work.

Besides, this is their job! But now they can get it for free again!

That was fucking exciting!

Ling Mengxue and Lan Yuxin walked into a small grove of trees. Lan Yuxin then began to treat the wounds from the battle. If she went back directly and Liu Yinxuan saw her, she would have no reason to come out again.

Before this, they had treated their wounds with medication, and now they have recovered perfectly without leaving any scars. However, their clothes and skirts are torn in many places, with no fewer than ten holes of varying sizes.

"Xuexue, help me take off my clothes, I need to change!" Lan Yuxin took out a brand new school uniform and placed it on the grass to the side.

"Wait, can't we use magic? That would be faster, right?" Ling Mengxue was startled. They were in the middle of nowhere, the light was so dim, and the atmosphere was definitely not right.

"I don't feel anything when I change clothes with magic."

Seeing that she immediately started taking off her clothes, Ling Mengxue couldn't help but sigh, "This girl is really open-minded." "Well, wait a moment, I'll go keep watch for you from the side!"

Lan Yuxin chuckled to herself, not caring much, and lifted her skirt to take off her torn stockings. Only when she was left in her underwear did she begin to change!

She loved seeing Ling Mengxue shy; the shyer she was, the more excited she became!

Chapter 172 New Features

"Let's go!"

Lan Yuxin smiled and looked at Ling Mengxue with an extremely innocent gaze. She seemed completely unconcerned about what had just happened in the old house, and appeared to understand her perfectly.

However, Ling Mengxue felt something was off. Normally, this girl would definitely ask all sorts of questions, and if she didn't agree, she would tell on her, right?

Just as I was thinking this, an interface suddenly popped up in my eyes.

[Name: Lan Yuxin]

[Gender: Female]

[Age: 18]

[Realm: Peak of Low Tier Magic]

[Combat Power: Please do not attempt to provoke her, or one night you may be subjected to a nightmare that no one else can understand...]

[Personality: Aloof, understanding, and kind]

[Psychological characteristics: Cute, somewhat morbid]

[Current Affection Level: 80%]

[Suggestion: When interacting with her, please keep her affection level below 90% to prevent things from developing uncontrollably...]

Ling Mengxue was taken aback, quickly glanced at it, and immediately realized the problem: 'This girl is crazy!'

"Yuxin, have you considered seeing a psychologist?"

"Huh?" Lan Yuxin's eyes met Ling Mengxue's, and her face flushed slightly. "Xuexue, what are you saying? I'm Magical Girls, not some kind of mentally ill person. You're the one who needs to see a doctor, aren't you?"

"Hmm... what you said makes a lot of sense."

Ling Mengxue nodded to herself. Xi He reminded her that this thing was completely unnecessary, since everyone has some minor flaws, which should be called shortcomings.

[Xi He: Master, this is the recently updated automatic query function. Anyone who harbors hostility towards you will no longer be able to hide from you.]

"That's good, at least it's somewhat useful..."

When the two arrived at the hotel, Instructor Mu had not yet returned. He was said to still be surveying Jadeglow Mountain. Ling Mengxue called him to report on the mission, which made him ecstatic.

The mission was successfully completed, and the losses were kept to a minimum. All the intelligence they gathered was useful. Now it's just a matter of hunting down some minor fugitives, and we should be able to finish the job soon.

Mu Yan was silent for a moment on the other end of the phone before finally speaking up, "By the way, Detective Ling, the Shangguan Family's kid also sneaked away, and I caught him red-handed. He's also in Jadeglow Mountain."

"Shangguan Li? Well... you're the mentor, you make the decisions, why are you asking me?" Ling Mengxue said, slightly speechless.

"Hmm? Oh, I understand."

"..."

After another moment of silence, Ling Mengxue immediately hung up the phone. 'What do you know? What the hell do you know?'

"Hello~ Want to watch a movie together?"

Back in the room, it was still early. Tang Ling and Liu Yinxuan rushed over and launched into a series of amusing complaints, saying things like how she wasn't included in the games and how she was going to have to deal with the teacher's inspections, so she had to play by herself.

Wait, something's getting weirder and weirder!

Isn't this fucking blatant harassment?!

In just a short while, Tang Ling and the others had even changed into super cute JK school uniforms and started playing cosplay games.

Her face was lightly made up, her golden hair cascaded over her shoulders, and her long, snow-white legs were visible beneath her white pleated skirt. She was eating snacks while lying on the bed watching a movie.

Although they didn't know what they were watching, they were all incredibly excited and drooling, but in the end, all four of them became completely engrossed.

Ling Mengxue simply used her points to solve the bathing problem, too lazy to actually shower. Her face flushed, she tugged at Liu Yinxuan's sleeve and cautiously asked, "Class monitor, is this something a respectable person should be watching? Won't it affect their mental and physical health?"

"It's okay, I feel fine." Liu Yinxuan's face was also a little flushed as she spoke vaguely.

"..."

Ling Mengxue was already complaining about these three Magical Girls. Could it be that she was influenced by the Dark Girl?

After thinking about it, she decided not to mind and simply enjoyed the view along with everyone...

Anyway, I'm so excited!

Nothing happened that night, and soon it was morning again, with the students all full of energy.

Downstairs at the hotel, Mu Yan was leading his team as usual. Apart from some dark circles under his eyes, he still exuded an imposing aura, as if nothing had happened the night before, faithfully performing his duties.

"Today we're going to Jadeglow Mountain for a study tour, tomorrow we'll go to town to see folk tales, and the day after tomorrow..."

As the subsequent arrangements were explained one by one, everyone's interest grew, and no one realized that someone in the group was missing.

Inside the hotel room, Shangguan Li lay on the bed with a cast on, looking utterly hopeless. Beside her was an ancestral sword, its light dim and even somewhat damaged.

"Damn it, I'm never going to join in on special missions again. Is this what a battle between good and evil looks like? I witnessed it firsthand yesterday!"

Shangguan Li gritted his teeth. Damn it, he, a dignified Second-Order Peak martial artist, was actually treated as the villain. The main reason was that both sides regarded him as an enemy, which caused him to be seriously injured in the first round.

If Mu Yan had recognized him in time, he might not have seen the sun today!

Noon

Jiangzhou City

Special Affairs Bureau Handling Team Base

After a long interrogation and investigation, Yao Fan, Lu Dingtian, and others were finally to face the punishment of justice. Their cultivation was sealed and they were taken to the Judgment Grounds. In the end, only one special criminal remained.

It was also assigned by Detective Ling. Although she was very skilled in martial arts, she was too simple-minded and not very bright. She guessed that she had been tricked into participating in the scheme, and she wondered if she could get the girl a lighter punishment.

Of course, that wasn't the main point. The main thing was that Yi Yun thought of the scene they saw when they stepped into the old house last night, and he couldn't help but shudder.

What kind of power would it take to seal off space and time? She's truly Magical Girls; she can even manipulate time! This Play Ball! Divine Source Realm martial artist would be reduced to ashes!

"Sigh, I really feel sorry for those assassins."

He shook his head and looked at the tearful girl in blue before him.

"I've told you the truth you wanted. Your martial uncle is nothing more than the leader of those evil sects who indiscriminately kill innocent people. I've given you all the evidence; believe it or not, it's up to you." Yi Yun signed the prisoner's information on the paper.

After recording one entry, he continued, "You'll need to stay here for a while to undergo prison reform. Don't worry, given your behavior, it won't be too long if things go well. After all, you're a victim too, and the organization will be lenient."

Yao Qingyi nodded numbly. She kept flipping through the photos and videos in front of her, her eyes shimmering, and finally, tears streamed down her face.

"Waaaah~ I'm so sorry, I never imagined my martial uncle had done so many heinous things... and I actually... Waaah~"

"Stop!" Yi Yun looked at her speechlessly and gestured for her to stop. "Those aren't your problems, let's stick to the facts!"

How come it's yet another pitiful person whose eyes have been blinded by society?

[img=700,709]htt Chapter 173 An Overly Relaxed Study Tour Routine

On the other side

Mu Yan was having lunch with her entire class at a restaurant in the city.

The lunch was excellent; the entire restaurant was booked, and the cost was split between Fanghe No. 2 High School and the restaurant itself. The table was laden with all sorts of delicious food, including grilled lobster, boiled watermelon, numb meat, chestnut fried rice, five-blessing cakes, and rice noodles from the river. The main appeal was the novelty of the meal.

And whether it was a coincidence or not, they ran into the same group from yesterday again.

Han Shiyu brought over the tray and politely asked, "Hello, may I sit here?"

Behind her were her best friend Xiaolin and the handsome young man, their eyes filled with admiration. Clearly, the scene from a few days ago had left an indelible impression on them.

Liu Yinxuan greeted them and then sat down with them. Anyway, there were plenty of seats available, and now they were all filled.

"Sisters, are you all Magical Girls? That's amazing... um..."

Before Xiaolin could speak, Han Shiyu quickly covered her mouth and smiled, "Sorry, this child speaks without any manners, she needs to be disciplined!"

"It's nothing really, we all are!" Tang Ling hummed, her little face full of pride.

After all, in today's society, the word "magic" has almost become a symbol of Magical Girls. It represents a mysterious power of lofty ideals, an existence that transcends scientific truth, both mysterious and sacred, making ordinary people only able to look up to it.

The handsome young man was merely a suitor of Han Shiyu; he had only recently heard about these things and witnessed martial arts masters and magic firsthand. But the problem was, wasn't this just a plot from a TV show?!

To this, he could only sigh from the bottom of his heart, "It's like a sparrow pecking at a cow's ass, a sparrow eating a cow's antlers!"

Han Shiyu couldn't help but ask a few more questions, and Lan Yuxin and the others didn't think it was a big deal and answered them. Anyway, they probably wouldn't have much contact in the future, since they went to two different schools and were in different cities.

Then Lan Yuxin picked up a piece of potato and put it in Ling Mengxue's bowl, turning her head and smiling, "And you guys, hurry up and eat, or the daylily will get cold."

Ling Mengxue paused for a moment, then gave a forced smile, "Thank you, but I have hands. Having hands is enough, isn't it?"

"Pfft!" Tang Ling had just taken a sip of clear soup when she was suddenly choked by Ling Mengxue's inexplicable words. Was Mengxue's thought process really that peculiar?

[Xi He: My little princess, eat more, otherwise how will you have the energy to complete the next mission? The cat eats more in one meal than you do!]

"What the heck? How did you get out here too?" Ling Mengxue took a sip of her cola and was immediately startled. "You should have given me a hint before you came out, why are you acting like a ghost?"

[Xi He: Let me organize the tasks you haven't finished yet, so you don't forget them.]

"Holy crap, how come there are so many? And what the heck is this Witch Apothecary Shop? d(OдO?)"

Ling Mengxue tugged at her skirt; she hadn't been paying attention for a short while, and already so many side quests had piled up.

As for the main storyline, it was only recently updated.
