Although the group of burly and aggressive men had no idea what kind of magical skills the woman in front of them had used to summon a guqin from nothingness like a magic trick, when they saw that Xingyue actually wanted to play it, they were stunned at first, but after a while, they burst into laughter.

"Hahahahaha... little girl! I didn't expect you to have such leisure time, actually planning to play the zither here. Are you trying to replace the red-clothed girl and become the most beautiful girl in Junlefang? It's a pity that even though you are born with a stunning beauty, like a fairy from heaven, our Junlefang has always only recruited young, handsome and elegant men!"

The burly man who led the charge and was as big as a mountain was now laughing so hard that his whole body was shaking. His whole body was leaning forward and backward involuntarily, and it was so exaggerated that it seemed as if tears were about to burst out from the corners of his eyes.

Xingyue, on the other hand, was like a cold, elegant sculpture, her eyes as cold as ice and as calm as a bottomless lake. She simply glanced at the burly men with a gesture of near contempt, their crude words and actions, and then, without hesitation, withdrew her gaze and refocused on herself.

The next moment, an amazing scene took place: Xingyue was sitting cross-legged on the ground calmly, her pair of jade-white, slender fingers were like dancing butterflies, lightly and gently stroking the strings.

At this moment, a gentle, melodious and pleasant melody flowed out from between the strings like a gurgling spring, as if the sound of nature came from the sky, lingering in everyone's ears for a long time.

At the same time, an invisible and intangible sound wave was born as fast as lightning, and swept towards the group of burly men with overwhelming force and lightning speed.

This group of burly men had not anticipated such a sudden change. Before they could react, they were hit hard by the extremely powerful sound wave and fell to the ground one after another in a miserable state.

The music played by Xingyue was like a celestial sound, its lingering sound lingering in the air, enveloping everyone present. Those men knocked to the ground by the sound waves clutched their ears in agony, trying to block out the piercing noise that hit them one after another.

"If you don't want to die here, get out of here right now! Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless and merciless!" Xingyue shouted angrily, her eyebrows raised, her eyes wide, and her hair standing on end in anger. Her voice was ethereal and graceful, but the majesty contained in it was as surging as a tidal wave, making anyone who heard it shudder.

The group of burly men looked at each other, and after exchanging glances, they all realized that they were no match for the woman in front of them, so they all tucked their tails between their legs and fled in a panic like stray dogs.

Second Luo, who was standing by and witnessing all this, couldn't help but be astonished. He had never expected that the seemingly delicate and pretty Xingyue actually possessed such extraordinary skills and such superb and fierce skills.

After the men had all left, Xingyue gracefully stood up and walked slowly and elegantly towards the Second Luo. Her gaze was as gentle as water, and she whispered soothingly, "Don't panic. I'm here to protect you. I won't let anyone hurt you in the slightest."

At this moment, Second Luo was already moved to tears. He gazed at Xingyue's beautiful face with joy, and a strong warmth surged deep within him, warming the heart like the warm spring sun shining on the earth. He expressed his gratitude sincerely, his voice choking with emotion, "Thank you so much, sister, for saving me. If you hadn't helped me in time, I'm afraid I would have died today..."

For a moment, tears streamed from Second Luo's eyes like a flood. His voice trembled, filled with endless gratitude. His face, once as pale as paper, now flushed faintly with excessive emotion. Crystal-clear tears gleamed in his eyes, and his entire body trembled slightly involuntarily.

"No need to thank me. Now that you're safe and sound, you can return home quickly," Xingyue replied softly, her voice like a trickling stream, smooth and undisturbed. Without the slightest hesitation, she turned resolutely, as if about to leave.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, the Second Luo suddenly rushed forward, stretched out his arm, and stretched out his arm in front of Xingyue, blocking her path. His face was anxious, and he looked at Xingyue with earnestness, and said impatiently, "Sister, are you not going to ask where Luo Luo came from and why he was hunted by those people?"

Hearing this, Xingyue slowly tilted her head, her beautiful eyes fixed on Di Er Luo. Within her eyes, clear as autumn water and bright as the stars, a faint glimmer of confusion flickered, as if she was deeply surprised that Di Er Luo had posed such a question.

Xingyue frowned slightly, opened her red lips, and asked doubtfully, "Why am I asking this? We don't know each other. Even if I knew what you said, what would it matter? All of this is meaningless to me!"

"What's more, I have an extremely urgent matter that needs to be resolved right now. I must rush to the Demon Realm to properly handle it without stopping. I simply don't have the energy to attend to other matters. Therefore, please do not hinder my progress."

After saying that, Xingyue's figure flashed, and she dodged the obstacles set by the Second Luo as lightly and swiftly as a phantom. Then she took firm and powerful steps and strode forward into the depths of the dense forest without hesitation.
