Chapter 33 (1/2)

“Leader!”

The night spirit’s lady’s eyes were shimmering brightly like red rubies. She was staring at Mo Xiaobai, and her body was all tensed up. She was in the best state to launch an attack.

It seemed as though she would act immediately the moment Mo Xiaobai made a move.

“Qianqian, don’t be so nervous.”

The middle-aged barbarian man waved his hand slightly, and looked intently at Mo Xiaobai. The night sky cast a shadow on his stern and resolute face with a beard.

His brown eyes were fixed on Mo Xiaobai as he opened his mouth, and slowly said, “Young man, who are you?”

Mo Xiaobai felt the gazes of four powerful warriors who were at least at two force points of their cultivation on him. His heart dropped. He felt a huge pressure.

However, the lines of light surrounding these four people were all white. They bore no harm to him.

Mo Xiaobai heaved a sigh of relief and thought for a moment. Then, he replied, “My name is Mo Xiaobai. I’m from Moonlight Secondary School, year three.”

“You’re still a year three student?”

From their expression, you could tell that they didn’t expect Mo Xiaobai’s reply. They were stunned for a moment. They didn’t think that Mo Xiaobai would be so young.

They looked at Mo Xiaobai’s young face, and chose to believe him.

After all, it was hard to hide your age. They would find out everything after some simple investigation.

Mo Xiaobai could feel their bodies relaxing a little.

Mo Xiaobai raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked, “Who are you, then?”

The barbarian man slowly opened his mouth, and replied, “We are the Peak of Cerulean.”

“Peak of Cerulean?!”

Mo Xiaobai’s eyes turned wide open. He looked at the four people with astonishment in his gaze.

Peak of Cerulean was the law enforcers of the Cerulean Empire. They specialized in dealing with devils, evil gods, and demonic cults.

They were a level higher than the guards of the empire.

The people in this team were all elites!

Most people had heard of the Peak of Cerulean before, but not many saw them.

After all, devils, evil gods, and demonic cults rarely appeared in public.

Once any of them did, it meant that something huge was going to happen.

Thinking about this, Mo Xiaobai glanced at the corpse of the shadow dog devil beside him and felt enlightened.

They probably came for the shadow dog devil, right?

Maybe they were the ones who published the mission about the killer at the expedition association.

As expected, the middle-aged barbarian looked at Mo Xiaobai, and gently asked, “Mo Xiaobai, did you see who killed this shadow dog devil?”

“…”

“…”

Mo Xiaobai’s expression turned a little strange when he heard this.

He pointed at himself. “I killed it.”

“???”

The four members of the Peak of Cerulean were stunned. They looked at Mo Xiaobai weirdly.

The merman with long blue hair falling below his shoulders looked as though he heard a joke. He laughed, and said, “You? Are you kidding? How’s that possible?”

The human lady looked at Mo Xiaobai and smiled too. “Little brother, this isn’t something to joke about.”

“…”

“…”

“I’m not joking. Besides these two people and me, do you see anyone else around?” Mo Xiaobai replied without any expression on his face.

Mo Xiaobai pointed at the fat rabbit-man and the skinny elf, who were shivering in fright and didn’t dare to speak.

The four people were speechless. They exchanged glances with a strange look in their eyes.

They were still suspicious of Mo Xiaobai.

The shadow dog devil had the power of invisibility. It had the ability to sneak an attack on a two force point Force Warrior. What about Mo Xiaobai?

He was just at one force point!

That wasn’t all. He was just a year three student, so his cultivation was probably quite low.

Even if they fought face to face, he shouldn’t be the shadow dog devil’s match!
