Qi Yufei looked at the Floating Worry Fruit in Rong Zi's hand and asked in surprise, "Master, how did you know that Xu Liuhan hid the Floating Worry Fruit here?"
Everyone assumed that Xu Liuhan must have taken the Floating Worry Fruit with her.
Unexpectedly, Master insisted that the Floating Worry Fruit must still be in the Xu family.
Not only that, she also found it.
Rong Zi glanced at him with a smile and replied meaningfully.
"Just guessing~"
It was mentioned in the original work.
After Xu Xingzhi was killed by Song Tianyu for plotting against Yun Qin, Xu Liuhan urgently used the Floating Worry Fruit on him in an attempt to save him.
But for some reason, even though the Floating Worry Fruit had already repaired his body, it still couldn't save him.
In the end, he still kicked the bucket.
It now seems that this is because Xu Xingzhi, being a human, cultivated demonic techniques.
The Floating Worry Fruit is a spiritual object for humans.
However, it is of little use to the demon race.
Xu Xingzhi, having cultivated demonic techniques, can no longer be considered a normal human.
But none of that matters.
The important thing is...
The original text describes how Xu Liuhan stored the Floating Sorrow Fruit.
So, while everyone was harboring their own ulterior motives, calling for the death of the Xu family father and son and demanding the Floating Worry Fruit, Rong Zi had already struck at the heart of the matter and quietly obtained the Floating Worry Fruit.
Of course, it took a lot of effort to break through the many arrays protecting the Floating Worry Fruit.
Rong Zi was primarily in charge of command.
It was Xiaobai and Lingmo who took action.
After all, her strength is a tiny bit... weak.
Jun Moyao, who had been given a shrinking charm and thrown outside to keep watch, said through a communication talisman, "Are you done yet? Someone's coming, we need to get out of here quickly."
"Here it comes~"
Rong Zi carefully put away the Floating Worry Fruit and led everyone out, completely satisfied.
Just as she reached the door, Jun Moyao, the size of a fly, flew over and sat on her head, gritting his teeth and saying something.
"Get me off now!"
Ever since Rong Zi put a shrinking talisman on him to monitor Xu Xing, whenever something happens, this guy puts a shrinking talisman on him, either pushing him out to keep watch or making him run errands.
Rong Zi smiled and said, "Why bother explaining? Isn't it nice like this? It's so small and cute."
cute?
The three apprentices present all twitched their lips.
Its eyes and nose were barely visible; it looked like a small fly covered in long white hairs.
What's so cute about it?
Just then, Zhu Haohao and Shen Wanxin walked quickly towards them.
Zhu Haohao started waving to Rong Zi from a great distance.
"Miss Rong."
Standing in front of Rong Zi, Zhu Haohao asked, "How did you all disappear in the blink of an eye? Everyone went to chase after the fleeing Xu family members. Why didn't you go with them? What are you doing here?"
They had been following the main force in arresting the Xu family members.
But as they were grabbing at it, they turned around and found that Rong Zi and the others had all disappeared.
Zhu Haohao was worried, so he dragged Shen Wanxin back against the flow of people.
Rong Zi coughed lightly and replied, "Well, let's see if there are any remaining members of the Xu family who have escaped the net."
As she spoke, she changed the subject at the opportune moment.
"How's the situation with the Xu family? Have Xu Liuhan and Xu Xingzhi been apprehended?"
Zhu Haohao didn't think much of it and shook his head.
"Not yet. The father and son have separated and run away. Our people are still chasing them, but they can't cause any more trouble now. We should be able to catch them soon."
Shen Wanxin interjected, saying, "We need to get there as soon as possible, or we won't be able to catch up."
Zhu Haohao asked Rong Zi, "Miss Rong..."
Rong Zi smiled at him, clapped her hands, and said, "Let's go then."
They followed in a large group.
However, before they could even leave the Xu family's gate, Rong Zi suddenly sensed something and stopped in his tracks.
Everyone stopped and looked at her with a puzzled expression.
Xi Ling'er asked, "What's wrong?"
Rong Zi glanced at her and silently took out two jade stones from the Hongmeng Ring.
Two jade stones, one light green and the other light orange.
At this very moment, both jade stones began to shimmer with a faint light.
Apart from Zhu Haohao and Shen Wanxin, everyone else present was stunned by what they saw.
What... is going on?
As Rong Zi's apprentice, everyone knows what it means for jade to shine.
But why are both of them lit up at the same time?
The four members of Rong Zi's group looked at each other, stunned by the scene before them.
Shen Wanxin and Zhu Haohao didn't understand what was wrong with them.
Shen Wanxin asked, "What is this?"
I didn't sense any spiritual energy fluctuations on it; apart from the light it emitted, it seemed quite ordinary.
Rong Zi thought for a moment and replied, "I suppose it's a symbol of the Rongling Sect disciples."
Zhu Haohao observed Ling Mo, Qi Yufei, and Xi Ling'er and found that they all had a jade pendant around their necks.
Although they are different colors, they are all the same shape.
He then looked at the two in Rong Zi's hand, "Then how come you have two?"
"This isn't mine; it belongs to another disciple of the Rongling Sect." Rong Zi gripped the jade tightly and said to Shen Wanxin and Zhu Haohao, "Well, we might have some other things to do. Why don't you go ahead?"
Zhu Haohao frowned. "Is it that important?"
"Yes, it's extremely important!"
Taking on apprentices is a very important matter!
