Ning Guogong was taken aback, then frowned and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? How could the National Master be a demon?"
He simply did not believe it. He had met the National Master before; he was just a High Monk of the Yuan Shen Realm. How could he possibly be a demon?
Xiao Qing let out a cold laugh. She had also been to the National Master’s residence, and while the demonic aura might fool others, it could not deceive her.
"Ha! A strong figure of the Yuan Shen Realm, yet he is still being played like a fool by demons," Xiao Qing mocked.
"You have a fiery temper, Ning Guogong. You’ve brought out the demons; stop spreading your lies here. Today is your day of reckoning."
She then turned to Ning Guogong and his companions, thinking that there was no need to waste words with them; they should just kill her.
In an instant, three figures surrounded Xiao Qing and her companions.
Xiao Qing and the little fox exchanged glances, their expressions changing. Faced with the three, they felt no confidence at all.
Xiao Qing looked at the little fox and whispered, "Sister Xiao Qing, do you think you can handle two of them?"
Xiao Qing rolled her eyes. "You really overestimate me; my sister might be able to."
Qin Wan'er suddenly chimed in, "Can I handle one?" Her eyes sparkled with eagerness as Jian Wan circled around her.
"No way, little ancestor! You can at most deal with Jin Jing; better leave the Yuan Shen Realm ones alone." The little fox was startled and quickly stopped her.
"Oh, is that so? What should we do then? It would be great if brother were here." Qin Wan'er looked somewhat dejected, her eyes filled with longing.
Xiao Qing kept a wary eye on the three. "Little fox, we can only fight with all our might now."
The little fox's face grew serious as she released a torrent of demonic energy, exuding an overwhelming presence.
"Hmph! Let’s take them down together!" Ning Guogong commanded as the three immediately sprang into action.
The Loyal and Brave Marquis approached Qin Wan'er with a cold expression; she was his target.
Ning Guogong and Xian Guo Gong had a tacit understanding and went after Xiao Qing and the little fox.
With no other choice, Xiao Qing and the little fox could only brace themselves against the two attackers.
Seeing the Loyal and Brave Marquis charging towards her with fierce momentum, Qin Wan'er panicked and quickly directed Jian Wan to shoot at him.
A flicker of disdain crossed the Loyal and Brave Marquis's eyes as he raised his right hand to strike. With a loud bang, Jian Wan was sent flying away.
Qin Wan'er’s face turned pale as she felt a slight backlash from the attack. She looked at the Loyal and Brave Marquis in terror.
Suddenly, with a loud crash, one person flew out like a cannonball, crashing heavily against the courtyard wall.
Everyone was momentarily stunned, as they had all been paying attention to the situation surrounding Qin Wan'er. They understood that the most important person was the young girl.
At that moment, a young man stood in front of Qin Wan'er, dressed in a bright red official robe, standing with his hands clasped behind his back.
"Are you alright, Loyal and Brave Marquis?" Qi Shan hurriedly ran to the courtyard wall, asking with concern. He was at a loss for what to do, as the Loyal and Brave Marquis had become trapped within the wall.
The Loyal and Brave Marquis's face was pale as he stared in horror at the emerging Hei Jiao. That last kick had nearly killed him; the power was terrifying.
Everyone stopped their movements and fell silent, all eyes fixed on Hei Jiao.
"Master, it's great to see you!" Xiao Qing exclaimed with delight. The little fox's eyes lit up with relief; the arrival of this formidable figure meant she wouldn't have to deal with the situation herself.
With that thought, she transformed back into her fox form and leaped into Qin Wan'er's arms.
Qin Wan'er stared blankly at Hei Jiao's retreating figure, feeling both unfamiliar and slightly familiar. She whispered to the little fox, "Who is he?"
The little fox shook her head, thinking to herself, Isn't he your brother?
