Looking out from the formation, everyone saw that the battle between the Xu family and the demons had begun to show a clear winner.
With Xu Xingzhi dragging their team down, the demons could easily exploit any weakness if they're not careful.
Unfortunately, Xu Liuhan's weakness was her own son.
Because of Xu Xingzhi, his dignified peak Void Refinement stage cultivation was actually restrained by Wang Mang and Liu Mao, who were only at the early stage of Void Refinement.
He was even injured repeatedly.
Seeing the unfavorable situation, Xu Liuhan ordered everyone to risk their lives to hold off the demons, while she personally led Xu Xingzhi, intending to take the opportunity to escape.
He didn't have enough men with him today, while the demons came out in full force.
A wise man doesn't suffer a loss he can avoid.
We'll settle the score with these demons another day!
The demons realized Xu Liuhan's intentions and recklessly killed the Xu family members who tried to stop them, then chased after Xu Liuhan and Xu Xingzhi.
We absolutely cannot let Xu Liuhan leave!
This is, after all, human territory. As long as Xu Liuhan successfully returns to the Xu family, they will be finished!
Just as the Xu family and the demons were about to chase each other away, a faint, ethereal, and melodious voice suddenly entered their ears without warning.
"Gentlemen, the play isn't over yet, where are you all in such a hurry to go?"
Upon hearing this voice, both the demons and Xu Liuhan were startled and instantly assumed defensive stances.
"who?"
Now, only Xu Liuhan and his son, along with a subordinate at the Nascent Soul stage, remain of the Xu family.
The demons also suffered heavy casualties, with only ten people remaining, including Wang Mang and Liu Mao.
At this moment, they were all vigilantly observing their surroundings, their nerves stretched to the limit.
Besides them, are there other people here?
Whether it's the demons or Xu Liuhan, if they are discovered by human cultivators here, it means their secret will be exposed.
By then...
Their fate was predictable.
Xu Liuhan shielded Xu Xingzhi behind her, gripped her sword, and asked in a deep voice, "Who's playing tricks here? Show yourself if you dare!"
A burst of laughter followed. "Who am I? Why don't you guess? There's a reward if you guess right!"
Xu Liuhan and the demon focused their senses on their surroundings.
But apart from the sound they heard, they didn't notice anything unusual.
Could it be that the person behind the scenes is far more powerful than them?
The thought of this possibility made them all break out in a cold sweat.
However, at this very moment, within the formation...
Everyone stared blankly as Rong Zi lay sprawled on the array barrier in a very ungraceful posture.
She cut a small opening in the array barrier, just big enough for a mouth to fit, and then pasted a sound amplification talisman on it. She then lay on it and talked to the people outside through the small opening.
After scaring the people outside, Rong Zi flicked her hand, and the small opening in the barrier closed again.
Shi Yuankun's lips twitched, and he hesitated before saying, "You..."
Is this even possible?
"How about it?" Rong Zi smiled, "Wasn't it clever?"
Everyone: "..."
Jiang Ziyao frowned. "I'm afraid this won't be enough to hold them off, will it?"
Rong Zi waved her hand, "Let's stall for as long as we can. There are three of them at the Void Refinement stage. What if they kill us without saying a word if we go out directly?"
Zhu Haohao, without thinking, gave Rong Zi a thumbs up.
“That makes sense. Miss Rong, you are very thoughtful.”
Rong Zi: "Of course, I'm so smart!"
Everyone: "..."
Seeing that the person who was speaking had not shown up for a long time, Xu Liuhan and the demons hesitated for a moment and decided to leave first.
But just as they made a move, the voice rang out again.
"Are you all trying to escape?"
"Tsk tsk, I never expected that the dignified head of the Xu family would collude with the demons and do so many shady things. What do you think would happen if these things got out?"
Wang Mang raised his voice and asked, "Who exactly are you? Now that you've come, why are you hiding and hesitating to show yourself? Are all humans such cowardly cowards?"
Rong Zi snorted.
"Who says I'm afraid to show myself? I'm just afraid of scaring you."
The Xu family and the demons: "..."
It's more frightening when you hide in the shadows like that, isn't it?
Seeing that Rong Zi seemed to have no intention of showing up, Xu Liuhan glanced at Xu Xingzhi, who was almost at his limit, and said in a deep voice to the only remaining subordinate.
"Walk!"
After saying that, he supported Xu Xingzhi and flew away.
He had a premonition.
The identity of the person lurking in the shadows is unknown. The longer they linger here, the more disadvantageous their situation may become.
Seeing that she could no longer hold off Xu Liuhan, Rong Zi decisively broke the formation with a wave of her hand.
"Let's go!"
She said something to everyone, then pulled out her talisman gun and fired a burst of bullets at Xu Liuhan, who was about to leave.
Rong Zi threw out all sorts of explosive tags.
With Xu Liuhan's cultivation level, her explosive talismans posed no threat to him.
However, the continuous barrage of dozens or even hundreds of explosive talismans still caused Xu Liuhan to sway, and her steps to leave were abruptly halted.
After successfully capturing the person, Rong Zi led everyone to rush forward with their weapons, surrounding Xu Liuhan and all the demons.
Upon seeing this, the demons and Xu Liuhan's eyes widened instantly.
"you……"
