Following Yin Yuyao's gaze, Fu Guang seemed to realize that the outside world had changed, and looked up at Xi Xi.
In just one glance, Fu Guang's black hair gradually turned white, and even the color of his pupils turned grayish-white. Veins bulged on his forehead, and his aura instantly erupted, sweeping over everyone present.
Xu Qian and the others were just ordinary people. When they experienced the pressure again, it was even more terrifying than before. They were all bent over and slumped in their chairs.
Only two people remained completely unaware of the situation: Yin Yuyao, Xi Xi, and Chen Xiao.
Xi Xi looked up and, after carefully scanning Fu Guang, raised an eyebrow. With a simple gesture, she made the terrifying pressure vanish completely.
Chen Xiao had no idea what was going on. He only saw his system's cute face suddenly turn disdainful, and with that raised eyebrow, oh wow, it was kind of handsome...
Turning his head again, he noticed that Fu Guang's expression had not changed at all, but his slightly furrowed brows revealed his unease.
Chen Xiao carefully examined Fu Guang's expression and felt that Fu Guang was a bit strange. He seemed to be indifferent to external factors, but he would passively release his aura due to external influences.
Seeing that Yin Yuyao showed no surprise on her face, but instead revealed a hint of worry in her eyes, it seemed that Yin Yuyao knew about Fu Guang's situation.
In this scene, Xi Xi clearly knew Fu Guang, but she didn't say so when she entered the inner hall. So Chen Xiao quietly asked Xi Xi about Fu Guang's identity.
Upon hearing her host's question, Xi Xi initially didn't want to say anything, but remembering the instructions from the main god, she slightly curled the corners of her mouth and said disdainfully, "Him? He's just a traitor."
These words instantly brought the atmosphere in the arena to a standstill.
Everyone watched as Xi Xi, with her angelic face and disdainful expression, spoke words that were almost provocative.
As for Fu Guang, it was as if it were a pre-programmed sequence; he would release his aura whenever he saw Xi Xi, and he would also release his aura whenever Xi Xi spoke.
Everyone was confused, assuming that one of them was a person with divine power and the other was a little girl of extraordinary status, and that they had known each other before but had conflicts.
Seeing that Fu Guang's emotions were becoming increasingly unstable due to Xi Xi's provocation, Xu Ruyan was losing her composure: Here we go again??? You gods are fighting, but it's us mortals who get hurt!!!
Only Chen Xiao was taken aback by the contrast in Xi Xi's demeanor. She could vaguely guess the identity of this handsome white-haired man, given how he was being treated by this silly leader.
He whispered to Xixi, "Is he... Lianfu?"
Chen Xiao thought his voice was very soft, but they were in the inner hall of the Dark Pavilion, where sound traveled differently than in ordinary places. Even the softest sound could be heard by everyone present.
So her whispered question came to their ears as a loud voice.
Now things were really messed up. Upon hearing those two words, Fu Guang uncontrollably stood up, his white hair flying wildly, his pupils gradually turning red. Although he was dressed in flowing white robes, resembling an immortal, he looked like he had fallen into demonic possession...
At first, Xi Xi didn't take it to heart, but after a while she noticed that something was wrong with Fu Guang. He was too out of control, which was very strange.
To prevent him from hurting the people on the field, Xi Xi decisively knocked Fu Guang unconscious. Her movements were so quick that no one saw whether she actually made a move.
Looking at Fu Guang lying on the ground, Xi Xi said gently to Yin Yuyao beside her, "Miss Yin, please take him to the inner chamber and settle him in. I will explain to you after I have dealt with this matter."
Yin Yuyao showed no dissatisfaction with Xixi's words, nodded, picked up Fuguang, and walked towards the inner chamber in the shadows.
Everyone was astonished by Yin Yuyao's effortless and heroic manner in lifting Fu Guang.
Chen Xiao looked satisfied: Great, I got it!!!
So only "our own people" remained on the field, namely Xu Qian, Xu Ruyu, Xu Ruyan, Yuan Yin, Chen Xiao, and Xi Xi.
Xu Qian had been watching Xi Xi hesitate for a long time before finally deciding to use that title, "Immortal, what's going on between you and Lord Fu Guang...?"
This title left Xu Ruyan completely stunned. Another deity?!
Only Yuan Yin and Xu Ruyu showed no surprise; neither of them uttered a word about Xu Qian and Xi Xi.
Xi Xi looked back at Xu Qian with a 'loving' expression and immediately began her performance, "Little Xu, you've grown up, become sensible, and can even greet people now! Your teacher is very pleased!"
Chen Xiao sighed, rubbing his forehead. Here we go again.
Upon hearing this, Xu Qian's forehead veins throbbed, revealing his speechlessness. If he wasn't entirely sure of Xi Xi's identity when he spoke earlier, now that Xi Xi looked like this, he was absolutely certain that the little girl in front of him was the 'divine being' who had appeared in his mind since birth.
Still as annoying as ever...
Seeing Xu Qian and Chen Xiao's speechless expressions, Xi Xi had achieved her goal of disgusting them, so she toned down her annoying demeanor and was about to answer Xu Qian, but when she glanced around and noticed that there were still 'outsiders' present, she shut her mouth.
Xu Qian and Chen Xiao also realized what Xi Xi meant and looked at the 'outsider' in Xi Xi's eyes.
Xu Ruyan caught their gazes and stared wide-eyed in disbelief. "Why are you looking at me instead of my brother and Yuanyin? It's not like I'm the only outsider here!"
A hint of disgust appeared on Xi Xi's fair face as she said to Xu Qian, "I told you not to bring him back. Look at you, one is so calculating, and the other..." At this point, Xi Xi's face showed even more disgust.
Although she didn't finish her sentence, everyone understood what she meant. She was saying that Xu Qian's two sons had very different personalities, that Xu Ruyu was cunning and deep, while Xu Ruyan was very 'simple'.
Chen Xiao pondered to himself: But...deeply calculating? That doesn't seem like a compliment at all...
So he turned his gaze to Xu Ruyu. His presence was so low, and he was also very taciturn. He only asked a question when she appeared, and otherwise remained quietly in his seat. Even now, when Xi Xi said that he was very shrewd, he did not say a word, but just quietly looked back at Chen Xiao.
Chen Xiao then realized that she had been staring at him for a long time, and quickly looked away, her gaze landing on Xu Qian.
I'm only now starting to wonder what Xixi meant when she said, "Don't bring Xu Ruyan back." It feels like Xu Ruyan was brought back by Xu Qian from outside... Was she being raised outside? Or... a mistress?!
Thinking of this, Chen Xiao's gaze became probing.
When Xu Ruyan first heard Xi Xi's sarcastic remark about his brain, he didn't even have time to get angry before he realized what she meant by "bring back." He looked at his father in surprise, his eyes filled with disbelief, realizing that he had thought the same thing as Chen Xiao.
However, as usual, Yuan Yin showed no surprise.
