Is there someone else hiding in the shadows?
Upon hearing this, everyone looked in the direction Su Xin was gazing.
"I'm somewhat surprised you could detect our presence!"
From within the shadows, two figures slowly emerged before everyone's eyes.
It was Ying Qianshi and Laincent, who had been secretly observing them.
Ying Qianshi looked at Su Xin, curious as to how she had discovered them.
Their presence had gone unnoticed even by the black-robed elder at the peak of the Martial God realm. And Su Xin herself was only at the late stage of the Martial Sect realm.
Therefore, Ying Qianshi was somewhat perplexed.
Laincent, however, appeared indifferent.
"Why would the two of you appear in the mortal world?"
Su Xin's beautiful eyes flickered, clearly discerning the other identity of the two.
That is to say, cultivators.
"Young lady, before I answer you, would you mind answering one question for me first?"
Ying Qianshi glanced at Su Xin, and finally fixed his gaze on the glowing talisman in her hand.
Seeing that the other party had noticed the talisman in her hand, Su Xin simply stated, "As you guessed, I did indeed discover you with this talisman."
"So that's how it is!"
Ying Qianshi could indeed feel the resonance between the talisman and the power within him.
"Since you've cleared my doubt, I'll answer one of your questions as well!" Ying Qianshi smiled and said, "We might be different from the group you know. So please don't mind!"
Now that the matter was over, they should naturally leave.
But just as the two of them were about to depart, Su Xin had no intention of letting them go:
"Please wait a moment, both of you!"
Ying Qianshi turned around and chuckled, "What! Do you want to keep us here?"
"You misunderstand, sir!" Su Xin smiled, "It's just that your presence is too extraordinary! So I'd like to invite you to be guests at my clan, to fulfill our duties as hosts!"
Laincent, upon hearing this, burst into laughter: "Hahaha! Ying! This little sister seems to have the intention of capturing us!"
"Young lady! Are you sure?"
Ying Qianshi's tone turned serious.
"Sirs! Regarding..."
"Su Xin, why are you still wasting your breath with them? These two are clearly Chaos Rebellers, and must be brought back!"
At this moment, Long Ming, who had been seething with resentment, saw the two individuals who were suspected of being "Chaos Rebellers" and finally found an outlet for his anger.
Chaos Rebellers!
Upon hearing these three words, Qin Yuan and the others' eyelids twitched, clearly showing their apprehension towards this term.
The so-called Chaos Rebellers referred to dangerous individuals who trespassed into the mortal world without authorization.
In response, the higher authorities had issued a strict order to all members of the Dark Clan: any suspected Chaos Rebellers must be apprehended and reported immediately.
Not only that, but Dark Clan members who successfully captured Chaos Rebellers would receive unimaginable rewards.
Therefore, when Long Ming suspected that the two might be Chaos Rebellers, he dared to disregard his previous lesson and was eager to capture Ying Qianshi and Laincent.
This was not only for himself but also for the entire Dragon Clan behind him.
Qin Yuan and Xia Zhiqiou exchanged glances, and their thoughts aligned.
"Sister Xin! Give the order!"
Qin Yuan said gravely.
The matter of Chaos Rebellers was not to be taken lightly.
"Hoo!"
Su Xin took a deep breath, looked at the two opposite her, and gave them a final chance: "Sirs, I don't wish to be enemies with you! If you are willing to return with me to my clan and undergo investigation, I..."
"Little sister, perhaps you should look at the people beside you first!"
Laincent couldn't help but interrupt.
Huh?
Su Xin turned around and saw that Long Ming and the man accompanying him now held two talismans in their hands, preparing to attack Ying Qianshi and the other.
"You... you..."
Seeing this, Su Xin's expression turned cold instantly.
"Su Xin! The capture of Chaos Rebellers is a strict order from above! You have no right to interfere with our actions!"
After speaking, Long Ming, disregarding Su Xin's presence, charged towards Ying Qianshi and the other with his attendant.
For Long Ming, this was a golden opportunity that he would never let slip.
The rise of the Dragon Clan began today.
"What utter fools!"
Seeing this, Su Xin roared, "These two are beings who have half-stepped into the Origin Realm! Are you going to your deaths?"
But her words were already too late.
By the time Long Ming heard them, he had already reached Ying Qianshi and the other.
"Wh-what, half... half-step Origin?"
Long Ming, who had been eager to claim credit, had completely ignored their realms.
The talismans in his hand could barely deal with cultivators in the Observation Realm, and were completely ineffective against beings in the Object Fusion Realm.
"Kid, you're quite brave!"
Laincent wasted no time and swung a palm towards him.
Bang!
"Ah!"
Before Long Ming could even use the talisman in his hand, he was sent flying backward.
Simultaneously, his attendant suffered the same fate.
Thump thump!
With two muffled thuds, Long Ming and the other directly crashed in front of Su Xin and the others. Their faces were now bloody and disfigured, their original appearance unrecognizable.
And this was only because Ying Qianshi and Laincent had held back their strength.
Otherwise, their heads might have been crushed like watermelons.
"Is this all you've got? You thought you could stop us?"
Laincent clapped his hands, looking bored.
Su Xin looked at the unconscious Long Ming and his attendant, wishing she could step forward and deliver a few more kicks.
They were truly useless, only good for causing trouble.
With their actions, the situation had lost any possibility of de-escalation.
"Sister Xin! Let's act!"
Xia Zhiqiou also saw this clearly and said in a deep voice.
Hearing this, Su Xin looked at Ying Qianshi and the other again, saying, "Forgive me! Sirs!"
Upon hearing this, Laincent's interest was piqued.
Judging by Su Xin's attitude, it seemed she still had some fight left in her.
"Interesting!"
Ying Qianshi was also curious about what trump cards Su Xin and the others possessed.
They knew their strength and realms, yet they still dared to attack.
This implied they were fearless.
"Three Talents Gather, Origin Appears!"
Su Xin and the other two each held a golden talisman, forming a triangle.
Then, the three of them separately infused a drop of their own vital blood into the talismans.
Boom!
With a loud bang, dense dark clouds gathered above the three, accompanied by streaks of golden lightning, and a terrifying energy began to converge.
The scene was extremely awe-inspiring.
"Holy crap! Ying! Something feels off!"
Laincent exclaimed, sensing a dangerous aura upon witnessing this.
Ying Qianshi felt the same.
In a certain inner space, Ye Ming watched the gathering energy, but chuckled and said,
"This might be a rare trial for those two!"
