Ximen Mako retreated in panic. But the group of soulless black shadows were approaching step by step, and their purpose was obvious -
The reason is Ximen Mako’s belly.
And why would Ximen Mako know that?
That's because those 'people' were staring at Ximen Mako's belly with a weird look.
Ximen Mako stepped back step by step.
Bai Xiaofei flashed in front of Ximen Zhenzi and looked coldly at the group of black shadows in front of him.
"Who sent you?"
“…”
The seven people were silent.
Bai Xiaofei had already sensed something wrong in the atmosphere, and he backed away while protecting Ximen Zhenzi.
Ximen Mako frowned nervously.
"Xiao Fei, are these people humans or..."
Before Bai Xiaofei could answer, the voice of the great elder came from a distance.
"That's a puppet, commonly known as the 'Star Demon Puppet'. It's related to what Master Qi has been dreaming about these past two days. As far as I know, this 'Star Demon Puppet' is an evil method that refines the souls of living people into the trajectory of the stars. It should have been lost long ago."
"It seems that this group of people really spent a lot of money."
Just when a few people were distracted.
Suddenly, the man leading the seven people put his hands on his chest and formed a seal, and a star mark suddenly appeared between his eyebrows.
Suddenly, a silver-white beam of light fell from the sky and hit the ground like raindrops.
The seven people let out a shrill laugh.
Bai Xiaofei protected Ximen Zhenzi all the way back, and he was always making sure that she was safe.
But the safer the two were, the crazier the black shadow became.
Perhaps they didn't want things to end so simply, two of the black shadows actually dodged, one of them rushed directly towards Bai Xiaofei; the other one pounced silently towards Ximen Zhenzi, aiming directly at her abdomen.
Under the fierce attack of the two black shadows, Bai Xiaofei didn't even have time to explain the situation to the great elder in the room before he was beaten back step by step.
Ximen Mako fled in panic, protecting his stomach.
But the dark shadow kept chasing after him.
Just when he was ready to attack Ximen Mako!
At the critical moment, the jade pendant that Ximen Zhenzi carried with him fell out.
That jade pendant was obviously the same one that Qi Yunxiao had.
The moment the jade pendant fell to the ground, it burst out with dazzling golden light.
The black shadow had never expected such a situation to happen, and before he could react, he was shattered by the golden light.
He was originally a puppet.
Now it's like a piece of clothing, torn into pieces.
Bai Xiaofei was shocked by the situation here.
One of the seven people died directly, which made the remaining puppets unable to avoid him.
But at this moment, the great elder and Qi Yunxiao in the room rushed out.
The puppets were in chaos as if they had lost their leader.
They discussed how to deal with the matter in their own unique language, and finally decided to rush towards Ximen Mako.
The Great Elder and Qi Yunxiao both came out, leaving them no chance to attack Ximen Zhenzi again.
After destroying the puppets one by one, the Great Elder breathed a sigh of relief.
He turned his head to look at Ximen Zhenzi behind him and asked with concern: "Zhenzi, are you okay?"
Then Qi Yunxiao looked over with concern.
There was an inexplicable tenderness in his eyes.
However, after Ximen Zhenzi waved his hand, he turned his head and looked to the other side, "I'm fine... Xiaofei, are you okay?"
Bai Xiaofei listened to Ximen Zhenzi's concern, turned around and shook his head.
But at that moment, he noticed a pair of burning gazes staring straight at him. He turned his head in confusion and saw Qi Yunxiao's resentful eyes falling on him.
Ah, this...
It seems like he hasn't offended this guy!
Bai Xiaofei frowned.
The situation in the courtyard was directly handed over to the Qi family's steward by the elder. Ximen Zhenzi was helped to rest in the house. In order to prevent the previous incident from happening again, the elder chose to discuss the matter here directly, and Ximen Zhenzi was next to him, so that he could take action in time even if something happened.
Qi Yunxiao sat in the main seat, staring straight at Ximen Zhenzi who was sitting in front of him.
Ximen Zhenzi's eyes were on Bai Xiaofei.
Bai Xiaofei looked awkwardly at the great elder who was sitting not far away, with a look of help in his eyes.
The elder understood. When the servant brought the Pu'er tea up, he took a sip from the cup and pretended to mention, "Yunxiao, you also played a big role in protecting Zhenzi this time."
The Great Elder's words instantly made Qi Yunxiao turn his head away.
He looked seriously at the great elder in front of him and smiled modestly.
"What are you saying, Great Elder..."
Qi Yunxiao wanted to explain, but heard the elder speak: "I was the one who gave the life-saving jade pendant to the Qi family. But when you were with Zhenzi, you gave her the jade pendant and didn't take it back when you broke up. If you had taken it back, Zhenzi would have been in trouble today."
Bai Xiaofei was shocked when he heard this.
He understood.
Why did Qi Yunxiao look at him with such resentment?
It turns out that it was because of this story between Qi Yunxiao and Ximen Zhenzi.
"Zhenzi, come over here and thank Master Qi. If it weren't for him, you would have been in real trouble today."
When Qi Yunxiao heard what the great elder said, his expression froze instantly.
He originally didn't understand why the Great Elder said that, but now, he understood.
The Great Elder was talking to that loser.
The corners of Qi Yunxiao's mouth drooped slightly, and his heart felt a little blocked, but he still tried to suppress the discomfort in his heart.
Moreover, to him, Ximen Mako was so proud, how could she lower her swan-like noble neck to apologize to him?
But the next second, Qi Yunxiao was stunned.
Ximen Zhenzi actually stood up, walked to Qi Yunxiao, nodded politely and expressed his gratitude to him.
"Master Qi, thank you for your help. I have no way to repay your kindness. Please accept my greeting."
Ximen Mako was about to bow and thank him.
Qi Yunxiao was stunned where he stood.
Isn't Ximen Mako's change a bit too big? She never shows her softest side to anyone.
But what is happening now?
Qi Yunxiao didn't come back to his senses for a long time. Although Ximen Zhenzi looked unhappy, he still remained calm.
The Great Elder was very perceptive and said, "Master Qi, Zhenzi has been pregnant for some time now, why don't you let her sit down first..."
Qi Yunxiao came back to his senses instantly and agreed with a straight face: "Grand Elder, please don't talk nonsense. I didn't make Ximen Zhenzi kneel for so long."
Qi Yunxiao was very concerned about his reputation, so naturally he spoke with his neck stiff.
Ximen Mako was on the verge of collapse. He was already very frightened by the shock just now, and now he was holding on even more.
Suddenly, she was about to fall down like a willow tree.
