"Impossible!" Feng Guang exclaimed. "Qi Chang'an is the leader of the martial arts alliance; he has no reason to help the underworld do this!"
Standing behind the crowd, Sun Yuanshan finally recovered from his fear. His eyes gleamed. "Qi Chang'an was taken in as a disciple by the former leader of the alliance ten years ago. At that time, he was already a teenager, yet he was able to comprehend such profound martial arts in such a short time. Perhaps... he already possessed martial arts skills when he appeared ten years ago. Don't forget, everyone, the leader of the Demonic Sect, Ling Jiusheng, knows the Bone Shrinking Technique. It's not difficult for him to disguise himself as a teenager."
Wanxuan glanced at Feng Guang, who was in a daze, and then looked at Qi Chang'an and said, "Alliance Leader Qi, what is your explanation?"
“You have already decided that I am the murderer, so any further explanation from me will be in vain.”
"You villain, come and be executed!" As the Emei sect leader took the lead, the others rushed forward as well.
Qi Chang'an was skilled in martial arts, but he was unwilling to hurt people and mostly focused on defense. However, with so many people attacking him and he unwilling to kill, his strength would eventually be exhausted.
Feng Guang glanced at her parents. Her parents didn't go up to attack Qi Chang'an, so it seemed they didn't intend to get involved. Since her parents didn't move, Wan Xuan and Wan Ge had no reason to join the battle.
Feng Guang gritted his teeth, drew his Cold Rain Sword, and leaped into the battle, shouting, "Seniors, I'm here to help you!"
Feng Guang's sudden arrival not only failed to help the group, but also forced them to slow their attack for a moment to prevent her from being hurt, which infuriated Xia Chao and his wife.
"Fengguang, come back!" Wang Ci shouted, seeing through Fengguang's plan at a glance, but it was too late.
The spotlight fell on Qi Chang'an. She made a feint, and Qi Chang'an easily dodged her sword. There was clearly no killing intent in her swordplay. Then she pretended to trip and fall, using the momentum to fall on top of him. She put her sword in his hand, grabbed his hand, and held the sword to her own neck.
Qi Chang'an paused slightly, then smiled and said softly, "What is Feng Guang doing?"
"I'll be your hostage, then you can escape..." Feng Guang hurriedly looked up at him and mouthed the words, then shouted righteously to the group of people opposite, "You don't need to worry about my life or death, quickly catch this traitor!"
"Let's see who dares to lay a hand on me!" Xia Chao roared. "If a single hair on my daughter's head is lost, none of you will leave the Hidden Military Headquarters alive today!"
"No, Father, don't worry about me!" Faced with life and death, Feng Guang was fearless, inspiring admiration in all who saw her. "For the greater good of the martial world, I have already disregarded my own life. If I can exchange my life for the slaying of the villains and the peace of the martial world, then my sacrifice will be worthwhile!"
Who said the young lady of the Hidden Army Mansion was arrogant, domineering, and ignorant? Isn't she quite dedicated?!
One of the men, eager to kill the traitor and gain merit, couldn't help but turn back and say, "Lord Xia, look at Miss Xia, she has a heart set on martyrdom, why don't you..."
"I might as well kill you first!" Xia Chao drew his sword and chopped off the hand of the talkative man. The man immediately collapsed to the ground, clutching his bleeding shoulder and screaming in agony, but no one dared to help him.
Naturally, no one dared to make any rash moves.
Xia Chao's face was icy cold as he swept his cold gaze across the crowd. "If any of you dare to lay a hand on me and harm my daughter, I will take your lives!"
Wang Ci shook her head and sighed calmly, thinking to herself that it was fortunate her daughter wasn't like Xia Chao, otherwise if Feng Guang were that stupid, she would be devastated.
While the other side fell silent in fear, Qi Chang'an was quite relaxed. He casually patted Feng Guang's waist and chuckled softly, "Who taught you these righteous words?"
That was a very pleasant question.
"People who are willing to sacrifice their lives for righteousness are always described in stories..." Feng Guang replied in a low voice, then shifted slightly, murmuring uncomfortably, "Don't touch my waist... I'm ticklish..."
Qi Chang'an's heart melted at the sound.
