Chapter 1334: Leave them on their own devices

Professor He agreed with him with a stiff face, "He is right. There is a lake a bit further away from here, maybe thats why this place is a bit gloomy and cold."

At that moment, everyone noticed that Professor He was still standing at the edge of the pit. He did not come down with them to the spot where the kids were found. When Song Yan saw him standing at the edge of the cliff, she curled her lips. The man might not believe in ghosts and superstitions but he was a smart one. He sensed that something was wrong in the pit and did not come down with them.

Professor He stiffened under Song Yan\'s gaze, fortunately, someone called him and told him to come back to the training centre as there was a task that he needed to handle. He heaved a sigh of relief and then told the officers that he needed to go back after ending the call. However, as he turned he relayed to them that they should not go deep in the forest no matter what.

It was where the children vanished as if they never existed.

Since, Professor He was indeed busy with something Wu Jin did not stop him and asked him to return back but before that he took Professor He\'s number just in case they needed to call him about something. Professor He had no problem handing in his number as he returned to the training centre.

However as he walked through the paths, one could see that he was actually running away!

"He looks like he is running away right?" Yun Yi remarked. He was very sharp when it came to detecting such things and sensed that the actions of Professor He was very much similar to a criminal running away. He turned to look at Wu Jin and then remarked, "I think he is related to the disappearance of the kids. I mean he does look a bit suspicious, doesn\'t he?"

"I think there is something wrong with him as well," Yan Shan chimed along with Yun Yi.

"If we are talking about being suspicious, I think the entire leaderboard seemed suspicious," Wu Jin rolled his eyes as he snorted at the theories with which these two men were coming up. "They are scared of the things that are going on in the training centre. On top of that, there seemed to be continuous disappearances of children. Do you think that they will be in a calm mood? I assure you that it would be more suspicious if they acted calm and composed. If you see someone acting calm you tell me."

Yun Yi and Yan Shan were speechless.

Yun Yi looked helpless as he stated, "I just think that there was something weird about Professor He being away from the pit. We all came to examine the spot where the children were found to look for evidence but Professor He stayed where he was, if you ask me it was a bit strange. Don\'t you think so?" He asked others who nodded along with his words.

"That\'s because he instinctively feels that something is wrong with this pit," Song Yan stated. She calmly explained, "Humans are like that, this is the spot where the kids fainted. Not ahead and not behind this spot, they all fell unconscious at the same place. Of course, even if someone is not suspicious, they would end up believing that there is something wrong with it."

Yun Yi did not take her words to heart. He waved his hand and then said, "That must be because of human interference rather than ghostly one." However, after a pause, he questioned Song Yan, "But what do you think about it, Madam Song?" He wanted to see whether Song Yan would agree with him or not.

Upon hearing his question, Song Yan smiled. Her eyes squinted slightly as she replied, "I believe that it\'s because of the grudge vein. When a Ghost with deep-seated hatred and grudge spills blood on the ground, it creates a grudge field around itself. This is to make sure that the victims will not be able to escape. A grudge vein is the starting point of that grudge field... even if someone escapes the grudge field they can never escape its vein. But of course that is something that I believe."

Fortunately, the grudge field was yet to spread even further or else more and more children would end up dying.

Yun Shan, Yun Yi, Rong Wei and Captain Chen: ....

The Gu sect master must have done some thorough brainwashing. Seriously what kind of explanation was that?

"Are you saying that if we step on the grudge vein and return home something will happen?" Yun Yi asked with a derisive expression.

"It\'s highly likely that it will," Song Yan replied honestly. She did not elaborate but that only made Yun Yi think that she was spouting nonsense. He then rolled his eyes and then walked inside the pit before stepping on the spot where Song Yan said a grudge vein was.

"YUN YI!" Wu Jin was startled when he saw that Yun Yi actually stepped on the spot despite Song Yan warning him not to. "What are you doing!?"

However, Yun Yi did not think that he did anything wrong. He simply shrugged his shoulders and said to Wu Jin, "Deputy Chief Wu, I am doing this for Madam Song\'s sake!"
