Ye Mi swung his right hand, and the crowd around immediately surrounded Jiang Mozi.
Each of them eyed Jiang Mozi and his group of students with predatory gazes.
"Ye Mi, what are you trying to do?" Jiang Mozi hurriedly asked.
"Surely you're not losing your temper and attempting to abuse your authority?
The prestigious Nine Ghosts Academy, is this all the tolerance it has?"
"I'm not that petty," Ye Mi said calmly.
"But right now, I suspect you have ties to malevolent forces, so I need your cooperation in an investigation.
Until this matter is resolved, neither you nor they are allowed to leave."
After speaking, Ye Mi turned to Xu Zimei and said, "Young Master Xu, this is an internal affair of Nine Ghosts Academy and has nothing to do with you.
If you wish to leave, the doors to the north are always open—you're welcome anytime."
Xu Zimei chuckled; Ye Mi certainly had a well-justified reasoning.
In terms of both justification and propriety, he left no room for criticism.
