Chapter 54 - 54. Bring Into Conflict
"Follow me," said Elder Chen to Elder Bao, walk to the very end of the room which of course the three people followed.
"Try to see, what happened to those students," said Elder Chen to Elder Bao as he pushed aside the dangling cloth that served as a barrier between rooms from one another.
If Fu Xie Lan paid attention, those lined rooms were more like emergency rooms.
Huang Bao approached and examined some of them, the color of the robes attached to their body was different, red indicates that the person was from the Vampire race, the brown robe came from the Werewolf race, and the green robe came from the Fairy race.
Those that Elder Chen had previously meant were from a different race. If someone is injured or even killed in an area that is not his/her origin, for whatever reason then it can foster hatred of one race towards another and if it is allowed to continue then war may occur. And this was what Elder Chen and the other wizards in the room were afraid of.
Even though they are the strongest race after demons, if all races point their fangs at the wizards then the loss of a large population cannot be avoided.
Huang Bao was checking they're close, exhaling roughly then turning to the others. Now and then there was a faint frown on his forehead.
"Are there any foreigners who enter this place?" asked Elder Bao ending his activities.
All pairs of eyes were immediately fixed on the three people who were following Elder Bao, displeased gazes as if flaying Fu Xie Lan, Wan Lie and Xue Ning were alive.
While Fu Xie Lan, who saw their gaze, was expressionless, so was Wan Lie, but it was different from Xue Ning. Ever since before entering the building she was already scared, and continued to hide, lowering her head behind Fu Xie Lan.
"They are not foreigners, they are three of my students," said Elder Bao. Although it was inappropriate for him to say that the son of the Lord was his disciple, the situation this time was different. To avoid any suspicion he was forced to say that.
"I have never left this place and they are suddenly like this, even though several people are already on guard," said Elder Chen.
"What's the matter? What happened to them?" he added again.
At that moment, only the voices of Elder Chen and Elder Bao could be heard, while the others were silent, and some of them did not take their eyes off Fu Xie Lan and continued to stare at her as if they were going to strip her then and there.
"It's strange, I couldn't find the cause of their sudden death," replied Elder Bao and then went back to check for a second time. If Elder Bao alone, who was known as a true wizard as well as the dean of the medical faculty, didn't know the reason, let alone those who were only in the second tier.
"Then try checking this, I don't know if this will help or not," said Elder Chen moving back to the other side of the room.
Opening the cloth that turned out to be covering someone's body, that person was one of the intruders who made a fuss at the Pury test, and died a few moments after the rose flower mark had blackened, Elder Chen then approached and slightly raised the person's head.
Huang Bao, Fu Xie Lan, Wan Lie, and Xue Ning saw the black rose mark on the person's neck.
"Mind magic?"
"Shhh ... "suddenly Elder Chen moved his finger to his lips so that Elder Huang Bao lowered his voice, then he nodded.
"Since when? Wha ..."
"That's right, ever since you defeated those buggers, I discovered this person is already lying unconscious," replied Elder Chen.
"Rather than a confusing, Uncle, wouldn't it be better to send someone to report everything to your Lord. I think this is someone who wants to pit several races, don't you think this is a very coincidence?" Now it was Fu Xie Lan's turn to speak up.
Although she did not know what mind magic was and what this world was like but seeing all the events in front of her eyes made her understand that everything that happened was not a coincidence or an ordinary accident but had been arranged by someone. Yes, someone who very stupid and impatient. If it was her, she wouldn't do it all at once but would do it slowly and gradually to avoid suspicion.
Because for her, no matter how good a plan is, no matter how great it is, if not accompanied by patience it will be useless.
"And if it's allowed, may I check on the people there?" Xie Lan added again as she turned her eyes towards the people Elder Bao had examined just a moment ago.
The few people who heard Fu Xie Lan gave an unhappy look.
"Alright," replied Elder Chen, followed by Elder Bao. They then returned to the bodies of the vampires and the others, but before that, Elder Chen covered the intruder's body again with a cloth.
Elder Chen and Elder Bao exchanged glances, it seemed like they agreed with the little girl's words. But the question is whether Lord Gu will listen to them? Because all this time, the last descendants of the demon had never wanted to interfere with the internal problems that occurred in each race.

Now that Fu Xie Lan was preparing to examine theirs.
"What are you doing?" shouted a male student suddenly. It seemed that he couldn't stand Fu Xie Lan's existence.
"Is there any problem?" Fu Xie Lan asked back without answering that person's question.
"What do you think a Fairy Half-Human can do?" the man asked sarcastically, apparently he was one of the students in the library at that time. Although he could no longer feel the smell of half-human, the girl's face was printed in his memory.
"Fairy Half-Human?" The murmuring voices of several teachers and students could be heard simultaneously.
"What are you saying? Fairy half-human? What is she doing in this academy? You don't talk carelessly," said a middle-aged man.
"No, I'm not lying. Maybe Elder Bao gave her an aroma pill? I clearly remember what she looked like," replied the male student.
At this time Wan Lie's jaw had hardened, his fingers were clenched into a fist to immediately teach that student a lesson, if only Fu Xie Lan didn't hold him back, maybe that male student would have lost his head.
While Xue Ning who heard that was also shocked, not as surprised as the average person felt in the room, but her shock was more of disbelief. Fu Xie Lan is a half-human? Huh, don't joke. What kind of half-human could slaughter witchs only with a flick of a hand? Everything the male student said he thought was not that different from a joke.
Meanwhile, Elder Chen and Elder Bao, who heard the male student's words, could only surrender again. They knew that sooner or later something like this would happen. And that is a risk they have to bear.
"Where are your manners to the elders?" Snapped a female teacher who was also in the room. Although she did not like the existence of a fairy half-human, if it vilifies the name of one of the academy elders without a clear basis then it was obvious that it is not the right thing to do.
