They've been inside for so long, and they're still standing there perfectly fine. This really proves that the monster in this courtyard is long gone.
"Heaven has eyes! The monster is really gone."
"Yes, that's really great."
"I won't have to live in fear anymore."
After the initial joy, many people broke down in tears. The monsters were dead, but their deceased loved ones would never return.
Lu Qingsi and Rong Xu were filled with emotion as they watched their performance.
Lu Ming walked towards Lu Qingsi: "You, what are you showing off for?" It sounded like he was criticizing her, but Lu Ming had a smile on his face.
"Qing Si, he is—" Lu Ming looked at Rong Xu, waiting for Lu Qing Si to introduce him.
“Brother, this is my friend Rong Xu, whom I just met,” Lu Qingsi said.
Lu Ming sized up Rong Xu and could tell that the man possessed some cultivation. Therefore, he believed Lu Qingsi would also be able to discern this.
But sister, isn't it a bit inappropriate to call someone you've only known for a short time a friend?
Lu Ming thought anxiously.
"Brother Lu." Rong Xu smiled slightly at Lu Ming, which unconsciously made people feel a bit of goodwill. Good-looking people have some advantages. At least when he smiles at you, your first reaction is that this person's smile is really beautiful, rather than that this person's smile is so annoying.
The people around them seemed to have finished crying and apologized to Lu Qingsi and Rong Xu: "We were confused and shouldn't have misunderstood you. Today you risked your lives to let us know that the monster has been eliminated. We, the people of the whole town, will never forget your great kindness."
As they spoke, some people actually tried to kneel down in front of them.
"This won't do." Lu Qingsi quickly went over and pulled the person up: "What are you doing? You don't need to do this."
"We were wrong, so of course we have to apologize to you," the man said, tears streaming down his face.
Rong Xu watched coldly from the side, without stepping forward.
He felt that since these people had such thoughts and did such things, why should he forgive them?
I told them this out of kindness, just so they wouldn't have to live in fear anymore. If they don't appreciate it, who can I blame?
If they want to know whether those monsters are dead or not, they can go in and see for themselves. Why should they push the two of them in?
What if there's something else here besides that snake?
This vengeful thought flashed through Rong Xu's mind, but the next moment he reverted to being the elegant and refined young gentleman he always was.
“There’s no need for that, everyone. Being able to help you is my good deed,” Rong Xu said, a smile playing on his lips. Sunlight shone from one side, making him look so beautiful that he seemed ready to float away and ascend to the heavens at any moment.
Lu Ming frowned as he looked at Rong Xu's reaction, a sense of unease creeping into his heart.
However, Lu Qingsi seemed oblivious to everything and continued to be polite to these people.
"Young man, you're young and handsome, and you're quite bold. I wonder if you're married yet?" Someone, eyeing Rong Xu, gave his daughter a meaningful look.
The young and beautiful girl immediately moved towards Rong Xu, looking at him with shy and timid eyes.
Rong Xu took a few steps back without showing any emotion, and said with a laugh, "This matter will naturally be decided by the elders."
Hearing him say that, the girl blushed even more and moved closer and closer to Rong Xu.
