Li Xuanyi was the first to react. He took a deep breath, turned to look at Meng Wan, and said seriously.
“I don’t know if you have encountered those hairy monsters since entering this place. With all due respect, Li Potian has shown signs of turning into a monster.
We must eradicate her as soon as possible before she completely changes!"
Before Li Xuan finished speaking, everyone subconsciously activated their spiritual power, looking as if they were ready to take action at any time.
Upon hearing this, Li Potian's eyes were filled with panic.
She watched in horror at the changes happening to her body, feeling the violent power surging within her, and an uncontrollable sense of fear overwhelmed her.
She looked warily at those who were filled with murderous intent towards her, opening her mouth to defend herself, but could not utter a single word...
In desperation, Li Potian endured the severe pain in his body, tried hard to maintain his last bit of sanity, and chose to send a message to Qingyu for help.
"Son of Qingyu, help me! I'm not actually a monster! I haven't completely turned into a monster yet, please help me..."
Upon hearing this, Qingyu's expression became complicated for a moment.
But he quickly weighed the pros and cons, chose to remain silent, and pretended he heard nothing.
Seeing that the group led by Li Xuanyi was about to take action, Meng Wan finally took action.
She took a step forward and stood in front of Li Potian.
"Li Potian is from my Xuanyin Sect. Her affairs will be handled by my Xuanyin Sect. It is not the turn of outsiders to interfere."
She swept her eyes over the crowd, her gaze as sharp as a knife, her contemptuous aura making it difficult for anyone to look directly at her.
Young Master Jiao's face was slightly gloomy, and he tapped his palm lightly with the jade fan in his hand, as if he was weighing the pros and cons.
The long sword in Li Xuanyi's hand trembled constantly. He frowned and glared at Meng Wan who was standing in front of Li Potian.
"Meng Wan, don't be so unreasonable! This evil creature has already shown its signs. If it is not eradicated in time, it may become a serious disaster!"
Mu Xueyan's eyebrows were raised, and her tone was full of displeasure.
"Meng Wan, you can't ignore everyone's safety just because Li Potian is from the Xuanyin Sect! Once this monster goes crazy, it will attack indiscriminately!"
Others also criticized.
"Yes! Meng Wan, you can't be so careless. If Li Potian really turns into a monster, won't we all be in trouble!"
"How can the people of the Xuanyin Sect be so confused about right and wrong? They actually protect evil creatures!"
Facing the accusations and scolding from the crowd, Meng Wan remained calm, with a hint of sarcasm at the corner of her mouth.
She chuckled and asked, "Who said Li Potian is a monster?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present frowned, thinking that Meng Wan was being too unreasonable.
"She's like this now, if she's not a monster, what is she?"
Meng Wan slowly turned around and looked at Li Potian behind her.
She ignored everyone's shocked looks and said softly, "I know you understand what people say."
Li Potian's body trembled, and he suddenly looked up at Meng Wan, his eyes full of scarlet murderous intent.
There was no fear in Meng Wan's eyes as she continued.
"Although you chose to send a message to Qingyu for help instead of me, but... after all, I am the kindest person."
A playful smile appeared on Meng Wan's lips. "Since you are also a disciple of Xuanyin Sect, I will protect you this time."
When Li Potian heard this, he suddenly felt complicated and didn't know how to react for a moment.
She thought Meng Wan would be like those people, shouting and killing her, but she didn't expect Meng Wan to stand in front of her and say such words.
Although, the culprit who caused her to become like this was Meng Wan.
There was a fierce light flashing in Li Potian's eyes. At one moment, she even thought about taking the opportunity to attack Meng Wan and turn her into a "monster" as well.
However, seeing Meng Wan's half-smile in her eyes, coupled with some intuition in her heart, Li Potian finally gave up the idea and nodded obediently at Meng Wan.
It was beyond everyone's expectation that the monster could understand human language.
The originally noisy scene suddenly became quiet.
The long sword in Li Xuanyi's hand was still trembling slightly, and the sword energy was fluctuating, obviously it had suffered a considerable impact.
Mu Xueyan subconsciously took a half step back, with a look of doubt in her eyes.
"How is this possible?"
She frowned and muttered to herself in disbelief, "Monster, it's impossible for you to understand human language..."
Others also found it difficult to accept this fact. Although Li Potian behaved very docilely at the moment, they still could not let go of their guard and fear.
After all, no one knows whether the monster will suddenly go crazy and attack them.
"So what if this monster can really understand human language?"
Ling Wu sneered, and his eyes were full of coldness when he looked at Meng Wan and Li Potian.
"Over time, the monster will gradually lose its mind, become aggressive, and very dangerous.
Meng Wan, you are protecting her like this, aren't you afraid of getting yourself into trouble?"
Upon hearing this, Meng Wan's lips curled up in a mocking arc, and her cold eyes swept over everyone, finally fixing on Ling Wu.
"It's not your place to tell me what to do. I advise you to go back to where you came from. Otherwise..."
She paused, glanced at Li Potian playfully, and said, "I'll let her bite people."
As soon as Meng Wan finished speaking, Li Potian cooperated with him and let out a low roar. At the same time, he clenched his fists, bent his fingers, and made a fierce look, which frightened everyone.
Ling Wu's face turned pale, and he subconsciously stepped back a little, not daring to say anything.
Li Xuanyi looked at Meng Wan with disapproval in his eyes. The long sword in his hand hummed and the sword energy surged, as if it would be unsheathed at any time.
"Meng Wan, why are you so stubborn? The situation is unclear right now, why don't you just cooperate with us?
If you insist on taking this monster with you, how do you know when it will go crazy? By then, it will be too late to regret!"
Upon hearing this, Meng Wan raised the corner of her mouth in an icy arc, and her eyes swept across everyone like a sharp blade, finally fixing on Li Xuanyi.
"How does it bother you if I take her away? You keep calling her a monster, but how do you know if you'll become a monster yourself?"
Upon hearing this, everyone's expressions changed slightly and the atmosphere became stagnant.
Young Master Jiao gently waved his jade fan and said, trying to smooth things over, "What Fairy Meng said is not without reason. I'm very curious about how this fellow Li Daoist ended up like this.
Before this, Xiao Yi from the Divine Will Sect also suddenly went mad and turned from a normal person into a monster. Is there any connection between the two?"
Hearing this, Qingyu's eyes flashed with thought.
Meng Wan deliberately attacked Li Potian, and soon after Li Potian was injured, he turned into a monster.
Could it be that the reason for turning into a monster... is related to the wounds on Li Potian's body?
Li Potian also vaguely guessed something and couldn't help but scold Meng Wan in his heart.
Damn Meng Wan!
She wondered how Meng Wan could suddenly show kindness and stand in front of her to defend her.
It turns out that the reason she turned into a monster was all thanks to Meng Wan!
