Just as everyone was looking at Yun Qin, Xi Ling'er suddenly leaned close to Rong Zi's ear and whispered something.
"They're here!"
As soon as she finished speaking, two figures suddenly appeared in the dark night.
One of them, wearing a scholar's hat, turned his head and asked the person next to him.
"Brother Xi, what's going on?"
If he's not mistaken, those ugly things down there look like demons.
Xi Hongyu shook his head, completely bewildered. "I don't know. Ling'er only told me to bring you here, but she didn't tell me that there are actually demons here?"
The two did not deliberately lower their voices when they spoke.
Those present were all cultivators with keen senses, so they naturally heard their conversation.
However, it was too dark today, and the branches overhead blocked the view, so the people below could not see the figures of the two people above.
The entire demon-slaying team looked up.
Has the reinforcement Rong Zi mentioned arrived?
Wang Mang and Liu Mao warily drew their swords and pointed them to the sky, asking in deep voices, "Who goes there?"
Xu Liuhan froze the moment she heard those two voices.
His eyes widened, and even his pupils trembled.
The person who came was actually...
How...how is that possible...?
Seeing that everyone's attention was drawn to the people in the sky, Yun Qin subtly retracted her raised foot.
In the tranquil atmosphere, the two people in the sky slowly descended.
After standing still on the ground, the man wearing a scholar's hat raised an eyebrow and glanced at the demons present, asking, "Were you sent by Wei Dashan?"
Kui Dashan is the leader of the Demon Alliance.
Seeing that he dared to address their alliance leader by his given name, Liu Mao pointed his sword at him and asked, "Who are you?"
This person's cultivation level.
He couldn't see through it.
In other words... he is very likely to have a higher cultivation level than him.
This is terrible!
These demons did not recognize this person, but Xu Liuhan and his son, the disciples of the five major sects, and some cultivators of high status all did.
Everyone stared at him in shock, exclaiming in unison, "Alliance...Alliance Leader?!"
Upon hearing the words "Alliance Leader," the entire scene fell silent.
What?
Alliance Leader?
Could it be... the leader of the Immortal Alliance?!
Murong Zhen turned his head and glanced at the members of the Demon-Slaying Squad.
"Wow, so many little ones are here!"
The little ones were terrified.
Could it be... that this is the reinforcement Rong Zi brought?!
The alliance leader is a cultivator in the Mahayana stage, the ceiling of combat power in the entire cultivation world.
How did Rong Zi manage to get him to this place?!
Murong Zhen didn't even turn his head, but suddenly said, "Patriarch Xu, isn't it inappropriate to turn around and leave without even saying hello?"
Upon hearing this, Xu Liuhan, who was about to escape with Xu Xingzhi, froze in her tracks.
He struggled to suppress the demonic energy within him, forced himself to turn his head back, and asked in a trembling voice, "Alliance Leader, you... how did you get here?"
It's a ghost!
Because of his image, the leader of the alliance has never been fond of going out.
Most of the time I stay in the Immortal Alliance.
Why am I wandering around here aimlessly today?
Thinking of this, Xu Liuhan glanced at Xi Hongyu beside Murong Zhen, then at the group of demon-slaying team members opposite him, and Xi Ling'er standing next to Rong Zi. His heart suddenly sank.
Could it be... that these brats have been stalling for time the whole time?
Murong Zhen then turned to look at Xu Liuhan.
His gaze swept over the faint demonic aura emanating from him, and he narrowed his eyes as he replied, "Coincidentally, that's exactly what I was going to ask you."
As he spoke, he glanced at the dumbfounded demons.
"And you all too."
"What brings you all here so late at night?"
The demons broke out in a cold sweat under his gaze.
Wang Mang and Liu Mao exchanged a glance and shouted at the same time, "Run!"
A group of demons quickly mounted their swords and hurriedly prepared to flee.
However, just as they took flight, Murong Zhen gently raised his hand, and a powerful pressure landed precisely on each of them, slapping them off their swords and slamming them heavily to the ground.
"You haven't answered my question yet, what's the rush?"
Seeing this absolutely overwhelming scene, the members of the Demon Slayer Squad were all shocked and their mouths were agape.
This combat power...
That's terrifying!
Rong Zi, meanwhile, stroked his chin and blinked his eyes, looking at Murong Zhen with a face full of curiosity.
She tugged at Xi Ling'er's arm and leaned in to whisper in her ear.
"He's the alliance leader?"
Xi Ling'er nodded, "That's right, cultivators in the late Mahayana stage are also the most powerful people in our cultivation world."
Rong Zi asked again, "I heard he's several hundred years old, but he still looks like a young man?"
She had imagined the pinnacle of combat power in the cultivation world to be some kind of old man with a flowing beard and an air of otherworldly wisdom.
Surprisingly, he doesn't look like a grandfather at all; instead, he looks like a handsome young man.
Xi Ling'er replied, "The Alliance Leader has a top-grade wood spirit root and can maintain her youth with the help of pills."
Rong Zi understood.
I see.
Being so concerned about her image, it's no wonder she wears a hat every day because of her circumstances, and even the Immortal Alliance isn't very willing to send her out...
However, otherwise, she really wouldn't have been able to bring him here.
