Looking at Zhou Bugui's determination to win and again at the institute director's serious expression - Ji Fengyan was very clear about the situation. She smiled ironically. As everyone continued to argue, Ji Fengyan gradually stepped forward.

"Looks like it'll be a challenge for me to allay all those doubts about myself. As you said, even if I activate the World-Termination-Armour to prove my identity - it'll not be enough to prove I'm not in cahoots with the demons, right?" Ji Fengyan smiled at Zhou Bugui.

Zhou Bugui suppressed a cold smile while maintaining a sanctimonious expression on his face.

"I also believe that you are human. However, the dark figure did enter your room last night. Moreover…" Zhou Bugui glanced toward the grim-looking tutor. "Tutor had also uncovered something suspicious there. So, for safety's sake, we have to trouble you for now."

Ji Fengyan suddenly chuckled at all the nonsense that Zhou Bugui had spouted in all seriousness. She shook her head.

"It's actually not that troublesome."

Zhou Bugui was stunned.

Ji Fengyan slowly retrieved her evil-vanquishing sword from her Space Soul Jade. To everyone else, it seemed as if she had plucked that sword out of thin air. A shocking sight.

Following the materialization of the evil-vanquishing sword in Ji Fengyan's hands, Zhou Bugui instinctively retreated a step. He stared gravely at it.

"Ji Fengyan, what are you doing? We are trying to get your cooperation in our investigation. Don't tell me… you are guilty and want to kill everyone now?"

Ji Fengyan shook her head with a pitying look at Zhou Bugui's principled act. She slowly raised her sword and scanned it inch by inch with a benign expression.

"This is the evil-vanquishing sword. As implied by its name, it has the ability to vanquish evil. People with tainted souls shrink at the sight of it. Rather than wasting time trying to get proof, why don't we make it simpler…"

Swoosh!

Ji Fengyan slashed her evil-vanquishing sword across the empty air.

The tip of her sword was aimed right at Zhou Bugui's heart.

Zhou Bugui's expression suddenly turned peaky.

All the youths who had witnessed the evil-vanquishing sword in action before - their eyes brightened at the sight of it. Meanwhile, the institute director and tutor were astounded by the appearance of that extremely svelte and unique-looking sword.

"This sword?" The institute director's eyes suddenly burned. In his eyes, it wasn't hard to tell that this slender sword was an elite item.

"Institute director, this is the very weapon that Ji Fengyan used to kill the azure ice giant. We have all witnessed its power. It's really a demon's bane!" Liu Kai explained.

The institute director nodded but was unable to tear his gaze away from that exquisitely crafted evil-vanquishing sword. He remained silent for a moment, before finally looking at Ji Fengyan. "Ji Fengyan, you said this sword can be used against demons?"

Ji Fengyan shrugged. "I know it'll not be easy for everyone to believe me now, so…" She smirked. "I have a simple method to prove my innocence."

"Oh? What method?" The institute director asked curiously.

Ji Fengyan narrowed her eyes. "I will flush out that spiritual fox. Wouldn't everything be clear then?"

Just as she said this, Ji Fengyan suddenly vanished before everyone's eyes!
