The atmosphere escalated, and both sides, finding the argument unsatisfying, eventually grabbed weapons and started fighting.
Seeing this, Rong Zi and Xi Ling'er took advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention to them and quietly retreated further and further until they were completely away from the battlefield.
The two of them each affixed an invisibility talisman to their bodies, and then circled around to the outside of the formation that had trapped everyone.
Rong Zi activated his magic incantation and silently led Xi Ling'er into the formation.
The people inside the formation were so shocked by the spectacle outside that they stared at each other wide-eyed, completely unaware of what day it was.
Someone said in a daze, "What...what did I just hear? The Xu family is actually involved with the demon race?"
"Not only that, it turns out that the Ling family's affairs and the Junmang Mountain's affairs were all the work of the Xu family and the demon race. Even the establishment of this demon-slaying team was premeditated."
"This is outrageous! The Xu family is utterly despicable!"
"He's a complete scoundrel, and he's got some nerve, daring to collude with foreigners to harm our own people! Bah! Traitor, scum!"
"Wait a minute! If that's the case, then Ling Mo was wronged? The real culprits in the Ling family tragedy are actually the demons and the Xu family?"
Seeing that everyone was having such a lively discussion, Qin Ziteng joined in and chimed in.
"Isn't that right? I've always disliked Xu Xingzhi, and I've always found this matter strange. No matter how unconventional Ling Mo is, he wouldn't even spare his own family, would he? Sure enough, he was innocent after all."
Yang Wei from the Mulin Sect glanced at him and said, "Come on! Since you trust Ling Mo so much, why not join this Demon-Slaying Team and hunt him down with everyone?"
As for Qin Ziteng's disapproval of Xu Xingzhi...
Everyone present knew that he was doing this for his junior sister.
Just as Qin Ziteng was about to say something in his defense, he heard a voice suddenly come from above.
"Exactly, hindsight is 20/20!"
Qin Ziteng frowned, looked up and gazed somewhat angrily in the direction from which the sound came.
"You're the one who's... Hey? Where is everyone?"
He could clearly hear someone speaking behind him, but when he looked up, he saw no one.
Was he hallucinating?
Qin Ziteng was wondering when Rong Zi, who was standing behind her, suddenly tore off the invisibility talisman on her body.
As her figure appeared, she smiled brightly at Qin Ziteng.
"Oh my god!"
Upon suddenly encountering a somewhat familiar face, Qin Ziteng's eyes widened instantly. After letting out a gasp, he jumped up and dodged to the side, nearly leaping in fright.
He pointed a trembling finger at the person in front of him and stammered, "You...you...how could you..."
Is this person a human or a ghost?
The commotion quickly attracted the attention of the others inside the formation.
Everyone looked over at the same time.
When they saw the person standing behind Qin Ziteng, everyone was shocked.
Song Tianyu and Shi Yuankun drew their swords almost simultaneously, both pointing the tips at the man with wary expressions.
Song Tianyu said in a deep voice, "How did you get in?"
The person in front of me is the demon who started the argument earlier!
How did this person know that they were all in this formation, and how did they get into the formation?
Rong Zi, with a man's face, held a handful of sunflower seeds in his hand, cracking them open while blinking his eyes and calmly replying, "He walked in."
Seeing that Song Tianyu and Shi Yuankun had both drawn their swords, the others reacted and also drew their swords, pointing them at Rong Zi.
"Why are you reacting so strongly? We didn't do anything to you." Under everyone's horrified gazes, Xi Ling'er, who also had a male face, tore off her invisibility talisman and slowly walked out from behind Rong Zi.
Everyone present was completely stunned when they saw the two of them.
What... is going on?
Rong Zi casually handed the melon seeds in his hand to Xi Ling'er.
"Would you like some?"
Xi Ling'er reached out and took it, "Okay."
The people present: "...?!"
What the heck?
Where did they come from?
Besides, weren't these two arguing fiercely outside just now?
How come...
Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment.
With Song Tianyu blocking her way, Yun Qin pointed at Rong Zi and Xi Ling'er and said in a deep voice, "Everyone, no matter if they are human or ghost, how they got in, or what tricks they are up to, we have so many people, let's attack them together and deal with them first!"
The crowd echoed, "That's right! Let's all go together!"
Although it's unknown how these two got in, one is a demon and the other is a member of the Xu family, a traitor to the human race.
Both of them were their enemies!
Seeing that they were about to take action, Rong Zi spat out a piece of sunflower seed shell from his mouth and then quickly extended Er Kang's hand to everyone.
"Wait a moment!"
Upon seeing this, everyone who was rushing forward simultaneously paused.
Rong Zi looked at Yun Qin and clicked his tongue.
"How can a young woman like you be so violent? You just come up and try to kill someone without saying a word?"
Shi Yuankun sneered, "Given your status, if we don't use violence against you, do you expect us to treat you gently?"
"identity?"
Rong Zi looked down at himself, then at Xi Ling'er beside him, and slapped his forehead.
"Oh dear, I forgot to dispel the illusion."
"What nonsense is this?" Lin Ze, the chief disciple of the Earth Spirit Sect, frowned and charged towards Rong Zi and Xi Ling'er with his sword in hand, shouting, "Everyone, let's attack together!"
