C89 Beauty Cen Cen

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Four sounds echoed in quick succession.

Then, many onlookers gaped at the figures that had been sent flying, now lying on the ground.

Had it been Chu Yi who was launched through the air, no one would have been surprised. But this time, the ones sprawled on the floor were the four teachers from Adirang Academy!

This was unexpected...

Chu Yi and Lee Zi were just as stunned.

Chu Yi had been ready to reveal some of his power to repel the teachers when he was startled by the figure that suddenly appeared before him.

So fast, unbelievably fast!

Even with all his abilities, Chu Yi doubted he could match such speed.

In just a blink, the figure was before him, and with four simple punches, the teachers were sent flying...

Incredible strength!

That was Chu Yi's sole impression.

This individual who had struck was far more formidable than Zhao Jun at his full power.

This meant only one thing...

A Diamond Level Great General!

This was a Diamond Level Great General, a match for the most fearsome demons!

The shock was fleeting; the crowd quickly snapped back to reality.

Now, all eyes were on the young figure standing at the center of the arena.

"Magical Witch..."

Fear flickered in Sun Wei's eyes as he blurted out the name.

Chu Yi finally got a good look at the assailant.

His eyes sparkled with recognition.

From the attack, Chu Yi had sensed that the figure was likely slender, and now seeing her...

Good Lord, I must be dreaming!

Where she was slight, she was decidedly so, but where she was ample... she was impressively so!

A beauty!

Even from just the side profile, Chu Yi was certain she was a stunner, the kind of top-tier beauty that takes your breath away!

"Cen!"

Lee Guoqiang also recognized her, exclaiming without restraint.

The beauty, Cen, turned to Lee Guoqiang, bowing respectfully before shifting her gaze to Sun Wei.

"I say, has Adirang Academy really sunk so low?"

"To stoop to such embarrassing antics?"

A beauty indeed, with a voice as delightful as her appearance.

As they spoke, the stunning Cen Cen advanced towards Sun Wei step by step.

Sun Wei, on the other hand, seemed to have seen something horrifying and kept backing away.

"What are you trying to do?"

What indeed?

Cen Cen gave a seductive smile, and in the next instant, Sun Wei's expression turned blank.

"I didn't want to do anything in particular. I just wanted to know why you're so determined to take Lee Zi back with you?"

A flicker of resistance shone in Sun Wei's eyes, but it was swiftly extinguished by Cen Cen's enchanting smile.

"No—"

Bang!

Zhen Ye, who was nearby, hadn't quite grasped the situation. As he was about to speak up and intervene, he found himself hurled away.

"If you don't want to die, Zhen family's reject, I suggest you keep quiet."

Her voice was soothing, her gaze tender enough to bewitch, yet Zhen Ye couldn't shake the feeling of dread.

"Come on, tell me. I really want to know why you're doing this."

Her voice grew even softer.

Sun Wei's eyes lost all focus, and he finally spoke.

"Even though Lee Zi is now disabled, she's a natural genetic warrior."

"Once we bring her back, we can forcibly extract the genetic remnants from her body. Maybe we'll even create a freak of nature."

The silence in the hall turned eerie in an instant.

At that moment, even the soldiers who had been reluctant to get involved flashed looks of outrage.

If the genetic power shattered, it would indeed leave behind genetic remnants in the body.

But to forcibly extract these remnants...

Everyone knew that Lee Zi, stripped of her genetic power, faced a bleak future. Yet, with the right resources, she could still rise to become a Silver Peak or even a Gold Warrior.

But if they extracted the genetic remnants from Lee Zi's body...

Silver? Gold?

Heh, Lee Zi would likely end up a mere ordinary person!

Worse still, an ordinary person with abysmal physical health!

Though many were aware of this practice, few organizations would dare to employ it openly. Not even with the subject's consent.

Such methods were deemed inhumane. Of course, while publicly condemned, numerous groups would still engage in such acts behind closed doors.

Even if they were discovered, as long as the parties involved consented, they wouldn't face legal sanctions—merely moral condemnation at most.

Yet, who could have imagined that the prestigious Adirang Academy would be caught in such a scandal?

"Damn it!"

Sun Wei, no longer under the control of the secret technique, quickly came to his senses. He realized that he had sealed his own fate by speaking out.

The people behind him would certainly not protect him. To quell public outrage, they would undoubtedly throw him to the wolves at the first opportunity.

Sun Wei knew he was doomed, and it was all because of the witch before him!

Bang!

Inevitably, even in his frenzied state, Sun Wei's full might was no match for a Diamond Level Great General.

After a brief struggle, he sat up, coughed up some blood, and then collapsed once more.

"Take this trash and get out."

Upon hearing this command, the Adirang Academy teachers begrudgingly got to their feet and dejectedly carried the unconscious Sun Wei away.

"Cen, I never expected you'd be the one to come through at such a critical moment..."

Lee Guoqiang looked at the woman before him, his face etched with wistfulness.

Cen offered a gentle smile. She held Lee Guoqiang in high esteem.

Not only had Lee Guoqiang been her teacher, but his actions alone warranted her deep respect.

"Principal, you flatter me."

Lee Guoqiang gazed at his most accomplished student with a look of satisfaction.

"But really, what brought you back so unexpectedly this time?"

Though Cen made it a point to visit her former teacher annually, Lee Guoqiang sensed today's visit was particularly fortuitous.

Especially since there were no holidays around this time.

"Teacher, my visit isn't just to see you. My main purpose is—"

"Him?"

Chu Yi looked utterly bewildered as the formidable beauty pointed at him.

Chu Yi was certain he had never encountered this powerful beauty before; such a striking presence would have been unforgettable.

"Me?"

Cen approached Chu Yi with a beaming smile, disregarding Lee Zi's tense and wary stare, and circled around him twice.

"Wow, I must say, you've grown even more dashing over the past two years."

Chu Yi's face turned dark in an instant.

Was that even a proper way to speak?

"No, what I meant to ask was, what do you want with Chu Yi?"

Lee Guoqiang stepped in front of Chu Yi, a hint of nervousness in his stance.

The beautiful woman before him was his most accomplished pupil, and precisely for that reason, Lee Guoqiang was all too aware of her unpredictable nature.

He had a favorable view of Chu Yi and certainly didn't want him to lead his star student astray.

Cen Cen rolled her eyes. "Principal, what's got you so worked up?"

"If anyone should be nervous, it ought to be me, right, Chu Yi?"

In the midst of their conversation, Cen Cen sent a seductive wink Chu Yi's way.

"Hiss hiss..."

Chu Yi found it difficult to withstand her alluring gaze.

Yet, it paled in comparison to the tiny hand at his waist.

He glanced innocently at Lee Zi, but it was clear that logic was absent in this moment.

Even Lee Zi, the scholarly beauty, was not immune.

"Big sister, while I'm truly thankful for your intervention, I honestly don't know you."

"What have I done to deserve this? Why are you setting me up like this?"

Chu Yi was on the verge of tears.

"Who are you calling big sister?"

He watched her menacing gaze and felt his mouth twitch.

He couldn't outfight her, and scolding—

How could he, when she had just saved him?

The small hand at his waist seemed to be squeezing ever tighter, plunging Chu Yi into despair.

"Okay, I'll stop teasing you now."

Suddenly, Cen Cen's smile shone brilliantly, causing Chu Yi to momentarily lose focus. But the sharp pain at his waist snapped him back to reality.

Alas, women truly are beyond reason.

"Alright, it's getting late. Let's head home..."

With that, Cen Cen approached and casually took Chu Yi's hand.

Hiss, hiss, hiss...

A triple twist of the waist.

Chu Yi winced in discomfort.

Having a beauty by his side felt wonderful, but the cost was proving to be steep.

Chu Yi longed to withdraw his hand from her grasp, but it was clear that against a Diamond Level Great General, without revealing his own strength, it was an impossible feat.

Chu Yi had already decided it was time to reveal some of his strength. While unveiling his capabilities could be a bit of a hassle, if he wanted to avoid trouble, he couldn't just let Lee Zi bury him alive!

"Hehe, going home?" he teased.

"Chu Yi, since when did you and this gorgeous lady have a home together?" Lee Zi asked, her tone making the word "auntie" sound particularly pointed.

"Little sister seems a bit jealous," came a playful chuckle.

A blush crept onto Lee Zi's face; this was a new experience for her. Yet, there was no room for her to back down now. She forced herself to look at Cen Cen, trying to muster her courage.

But upon comparison, Lee Zi's confidence deflated once again.

"Chu Yi, you should really head home. Your family is worried about you after the incident here..." His arm was firmly around Chu Yi, even throwing a defiant glare at Lee Zi.

Lee Zi, unaccustomed to such confrontations, felt tears welling up. Chu Yi, witnessing the scene, grew angry. His benefactor or not, they wouldn't have been in danger even without her intervention. Lee Zi held a place in Chu Yi's heart nearly on par with his parents, and seeing her upset, he couldn't hold back any longer.

"Go home? Go back to your own home!" he retorted, breaking free from Cen Cen's grip.

Surprise flickered in Cen Cen's eyes; she hadn't anticipated Chu Yi's ability to escape her hold.

"Lee Zi, you must believe me. I really don't know her!" Chu Yi pleaded.

Though Lee Zi maintained a stern expression, her eyes betrayed her amusement. Chu Yi's earnestness was more than enough for her.
