Bai Ruxue's brow furrowed as chains formed from scrolls coiled toward her, seeking to bind her.
Just as she was about to channel her Demonic Power to resist, a majestic, ink-black dragon coalesced and shot up from Xiao Mo's side, crashing into the chains and instantly shattering the links of Spiritual Power.
Xiao Mo stepped forward and gave a solemn bow to Duanya Academy's Director, Lu Chao. In a low voice, he said, "Academy Director, there must be a misunderstanding!"
"We can discuss whether or not there's a misunderstanding later," Lu Chao said, shaking his head. He then ordered the academy's instructors, "Apprehend them!"
Upon hearing the command, the instructors of Duanya Academy exchanged hesitant glances.
Although they didn't know the full story, the Academy Director's order could not be questioned. They quickly closed in, surrounding Bai Ruxue and Xiao Mo.
"ROAR!"
A furious roar shook the heavens and the earth.
