Her face showed signs of fatigue, but her eyes were bright and firm, revealing a composure that came from having experienced danger. This expression inexplicably gave Ye Shiming a sense of security.

I never imagined that a grown man like him would need a young girl's protection today.

Ye Shiming immediately shouted sternly at the servants and bodyguards.

"Everyone be quiet and sit here obediently. Anyone who runs around or jumps will be thrown out!"

The servants and bodyguards didn't dare to breathe and nodded hurriedly.

They are now like duckweed, having found temporary shelter, and they cherish it all.

"Mother Liao is still outside, what should we do?" a maid asked.

Xiaoxi was busy saving people and didn't have time to tell everyone, "She's already dead."

"Sigh..." she sighed. This was something she couldn't ask; asking would only cause problems.

Suddenly, the deceased Mrs. Liao jumped up. Her eyes were empty and lifeless, and her face was as pale as paper.

She suddenly saw the people inside the warm light barrier. "Damn it, you bunch of heartless bastards, you actually abandoned me."

She staggered toward the warm light barrier, and everyone trembled so much they dared not utter a sound.

The head of the family ordered that we not run or jump around, and not make a sound. Just now, someone asked Liao Mama a question, and this is how things turned out. It's terrifying.

Liao's mother stretched out her hands, trying to reach into the warm light barrier to pull the person out. The warm light barrier emitted a soft glow and seemed harmless, but when Liao's mother's hands touched it, she suddenly let out a shrill scream.

As if she were being tormented by extreme pain, her body began to tremble violently, and her already stiff muscles became even more contorted.

"Ah...you bunch of bastards, if I'm not doing well, none of you will be doing well either."

Then Liao's mother began to howl wildly, as if trying to awaken the fallen evil spirits in the yard.

Sure enough, the demon that had been slowly piecing together its body sped up its assembly and quickly formed a human shape.

Other severed limbs and fragments followed suit and were gradually assembled successfully.

Xiaoxi gripped the crescent blade tightly. It seemed another fierce battle was about to begin, and she felt somewhat defeated. It appeared that all her efforts in the courtyard had been in vain.

"Master, I said I couldn't find anyone. So you were all here? Who hacked this courtyard like this?"

Then, Butler Lu led a thin, middle-aged man into the three-courtyard house.

Xiaoxi looked at the two people who came in and was so angry that she wanted to curse. Why did Butler Lu bring people here to cause trouble again?

Clearly, Butler Lu was oblivious to the danger lurking in the courtyard; he only saw the devastation and chaos that had engulfed the area.

He was still puzzled: the patriarch and the others were gathered together, sitting on the ground, looking very disheveled. What were they doing?

"Aunt Liao, you're awake? It's good that you're alright. I've even called the doctor." Butler Lu looked at the old woman who suddenly appeared behind him with relief.

He was puzzled as to why Liao's mother looked so strange.

"ah!"

Suddenly, it felt as if a rope was wrapped around his waist, and then he and the doctor he had invited were both thrown into the air and crashed to the ground, landing right at the feet of the head of the household.

Moreover, the head of the family covered his mouth.

Only then did he realize with horror that the scene in the courtyard was completely different from when he came in, and the doctor fainted from fright.

A large number of evil spirits had finished piecing themselves together. They bared their fangs and claws, their faces contorted in a ferocious manner, and rushed straight toward the barrier of warm light.

The warm light barrier shimmered faintly; it was a protective barrier.

The demons screamed as they tried to break through the barrier, but each time they were burned and bounced back by an invisible force.

Xiao Xi kept casting spells to reinforce and repair the barrier.
