Shen Boyuan: "It has nothing to do with them. Don't hurt the innocent."
She paused, then glanced at Li Wenhe who came out next, and said, "She changed the location to fight because she didn't want to implicate you. She also hopes you won't barge in. This level of battle is not something you can participate in."
After saying that, he turned and chased after her without looking back.
Li Wenhe clenched his fingers tightly. He knew what the other person was saying was true, but the more true it was, the more embarrassing it became.
Mingzhuo has always taken them on missions with the intention of giving them experience; in reality, she could handle things on her own without them.
When faced with a real catastrophe, they will not only be unable to help, but will even be a hindrance.
Li Wenhe was extremely unwilling to accept this; his anger almost burned his eyes red...
Cai Wenhua was startled by his gaze and subconsciously took two steps back.
He immediately flew into a rage: "What do you mean? Are you going to betray the Xuanmen? If that's the case, I'll clean house for the Xuanmen right now!"
He already harbored a grudge against those good-for-nothings who won awards at last year's Xuanmen Academic Exchange Conference.
I've been working hard for years, and I'm already being overshadowed by Shen Boyuan and Zhuang Xun, but why are these people doing this?
He didn't dare to express his dissatisfaction before, after all, Ming Zhuo had returned and transformed into a member of the Bai family, and he couldn't afford to offend him.
Now that Mingzhuo's backer has fallen, the Bai family is likely to suffer as well. These people are no match for him.
On the other side, He Wangyao pulled Pei Di, who was so agitated he wanted to hit someone, and advised him, "Didi, calm down, calm down! Especially at times like these, we must not give others any leverage..."
Cai Wenhua's mind stirred slightly. Although he couldn't ignore Shen Boyuan's words, given the state of Li Wenhe and Pei Di, it was understandable that he wanted to protect himself.
Anyway, Junior Sister will definitely side with him. Senior Brother Shen is the most soft-hearted towards Junior Sister, and at most he will scold her a couple of times.
With that in mind, he didn't hesitate to draw his magic sword, intending to strike first.
No one expected him to make a sudden move, and Pei Di and He Wangyao didn't even have time to dodge.
Li Wenhe's expression changed slightly, and he wanted to rush forward to stop him.
The triumphant smile on Cai Wenhua's lips had just begun to spread when the unstoppable magic sword suddenly stopped for a moment.
Then, as if it were drunk, it flew erratically for a couple of moments before suddenly plummeting to the ground with a clatter.
Everyone: "..."
what happened?
He Wangyao broke out in a cold sweat. He looked up at what was behind Cai Wenhua, "A-Xu?"
Gu Xu looked apologetic: "I'm sorry, I'm not very good at using talismans. Zhuo Zhuo taught me, but I didn't find them very effective."
Behind Cai Wenhua, there was a talisman that could immobilize him.
When we were at Lingquan Temple, Mingzhuo took some time to draw two pictures for him so that he could try sticking them on people.
Gu Xu has a special constitution that makes him immune to all evil, but similarly, his strong sense of materialism prevents him from practicing magic.
If you let him hold those talismans for catching ghosts and exorcising evil spirits, they will easily become a pile of waste paper; but he can still use the immobilization talismans used on people.
But the effect wasn't very good, even though Gu Xu's aim when throwing the talisman was very accurate, and it stuck to Cai Wenhua in one go.
He only managed to completely immobilize Cai Wenhua by chanting incantations and using the bronze mirror in his hand.
Cai Wenhua looked pale and sickly. He had been careless and completely forgotten about Gu Xu's presence!
"Don't be so smug. The evidence of Ruan Mingzhuo's collusion with Shen Ruodi is irrefutable. She's dead tonight, and you won't have a good end either!"
Li Wenhe stepped forward and affixed a silencing talisman to Cai Wenhua.
Cai Wenhua was speechless.
"We may not have a good ending, but you will soon suffer a bloody disaster."
Li Wenhe sneered, raised his arm and slapped Cai Wenhua several times until blood seeped from the corner of Cai Wenhua's mouth before he stopped.
"You see, I'm absolutely certain that if I say there will be bloodshed, then there will be bloodshed."
Cai Wenhua was stunned by the slap. He looked at Li Wenhe in disbelief, never expecting that the other party would slap him right away!
He wouldn't be surprised if Pei Di were in his place, but Li Wenhe appeared to be the most refined and rational, a kind of strategist in the small group.
Has he completely gone mad?
There were still a few people from the Xuanmen sect in the Cheng family courtyard, and they were also dumbfounded when they saw this scene.
Several people rushed up in an attempt to rescue Cai Wenhua.
He Wangyao had been on guard against these people, and quickly kicked Cai Wenhua off the stage.
Just as those people were scrambling to get him, Gu Xu opened the door and said, "Come in quickly."
Several people filed in in unison and then slammed the door shut.
Everyone: "..."
The silencing talisman on Cai Wenhua was removed, but the immobilization talisman could not be torn off, so he could only stand there stiffly, supported by others.
At this point, only he could make the decision.
"Have all the people inside been evacuated?"
"They've all evacuated! The Cheng family's relatives have all been taken away through the front door."
Cai Wenhua felt relieved: "Then let them stay in there! I want to see how long they can keep them locked up!"
——
He Wangyao walked to the front gate, looked around, and turned around to say, "There are guards at the front gate too."
Li Wenhe: "They plan to trap us here so they can wipe us all out at once."
He turned to look at Gu Xu, "Mr. Gu, did Zhuozhuo say something to you?"
Otherwise, Gu Xu wouldn't have made a point of letting them in.
Gu Xu nodded: "Zhuozhuo asked me to find something at the Cheng family's house."
He Wangyao touched the goosebumps on her arm: "Are you looking for Liu Manling's body?"
He glanced in the direction of the mourning hall, where the dim lighting made it seem even more eerie and frightening.
