She quickly put away the small key and walked outside.

Cheng Yangyang waited obediently for her, and his eyes lit up the moment he saw her arrive.

“You’re out! I heard some noise outside, but I didn’t dare to go and see.” Cheng Yangyang immediately stuck to her side.

Bai Huang frowned and walked straight outside. After walking a short distance, she smelled a strong stench of blood.

Her feet felt damp, and when she lifted them, she found that they were covered in thick blood.

"Quick! Seize him! This madman is the one who killed the Zongxuan Alliance members!"

"The Bai family said this person was born cursed; he must have gone mad to kill these disciples of the Zongxuan Alliance!"

Upon hearing the words "Zongxuan Alliance," Cheng Yangyang turned pale and quickened her pace to hurry outside.

The demonic vines that bound them were left on the ground.

Zongxuan Alliance disciples lay scattered all over the ground.

Everyone's face was contorted with rage, and their bodies were covered in all sorts of wounds.

"Senior brother!" Cheng Yangyang exclaimed in surprise, her face turning pale as she took a few steps back.

Five people, not one survived!

Bai Huang had no interest in looking at the body parts scattered on the ground. Her gaze turned completely cold after she realized who the group of people were surrounding.

Bai Wenxiao was surrounded by a large crowd, his body covered in wounds of varying sizes. His eyes darted around, scanning for anything, and he kept repeating, "Phoenix! Where!"

Unfortunately, the people around him wouldn't listen to what he was saying; they were holding all sorts of magical treasures and wished they could execute him on the spot!

The Hua siblings stood at the front, their faces full of confusion.

Zongxuan Alliance has a bad reputation, so they only advised Bai Huang not to kill them, and did not do anything unnecessary like rescuing them.

But I didn't expect that soon after I went outside, I would hear screams coming from inside.

Everyone heard it, and when they came in together, they saw the scene of these disciples being killed. At that time, the only person standing next to them was Bai Wenxiao.

"He must have killed someone!" Shangguan Ling'er insisted. "Everyone saw it. The people from the Zongxuan Alliance got into trouble. It has nothing to do with us. It was all done by that ugly freak from the Bai family!"

Even the four major families were wary of the Zongxuan Alliance, so the disciples of those smaller forces couldn't afford to offend them even more. They quickly echoed, "Miss Ling'er is right. We are all righteous people. How could we do such a cruel thing? In my opinion, we should tie up this ugly thing that has gone mad and hand it over to the people of the Zongxuan Alliance to deal with!"

But I'm afraid of getting involved.

Shangguan Ming snorted coldly and unleashed a wind blade at Bai Wenxiao.

Bai Wenxiao was already covered in wounds from the encirclement and attack of the crowd. His instincts told him that he absolutely could not show weakness and had to fight.

"Ah!" He roared like a trapped beast, preparing to pounce on the wind blade.

Countless icicles suddenly froze and formed along the road.

An ice wall blocked Bai Wenxiao's path, and the wind blade missed its target.

"Who!" Shangguan Ling'er turned around angrily, her eyes suddenly turning sharp and sinister the moment she saw who it was.

She called out the person's name, word by word.

"Bai! Huang!"

Bai Huang had already summoned her entire ice crystal armor. She took a step forward, and countless streams of ice-elemental energy flowed from beneath her feet, connecting to the ice wall.

"Gu Family White Phoenix?" Everyone spoke up immediately after seeing clearly, "What do you mean by this? We are helping the disciples of the Zongxuan Alliance to punish the real culprit who killed them."

The two siblings from the Hua family kept giving her meaningful glances.

"Bai Huang, what are you doing out here?" Hua Miaoyu grabbed her hand, trying to make her back away. "Everyone saw what happened, don't interfere!"

If they knew that the reason these people had no power to resist was because they had already been crippled by Bai Huang before that!

Now that Bai Wenxiao is being used as a scapegoat, Hua Miaoyu hopes that Bai Huang will absolutely not make a foolish mistake.

Bai Huang withdrew her hand expressionlessly, her voice as cold as clashing ice crystals, "I had no idea that the Zongxuan Alliance had started raising so many dogs."

She looked at everyone here with a mocking gaze, "When their master dies, the dogs bark and bark to show their loyalty, as if they're afraid their master won't know?"

Shangguan Ling'er took a step forward, her face as black as the bottom of a pot. "Bai Huang! Aren't you being too arrogant? Everyone was just trying to be helpful."

"Kindness?" She walked up to Bai Wenxiao. "I think you're just scared. You're trembling at the mere mention of the Zongxuan Alliance!"

"Did you see him cut off these people's heads with your own eyes?"

"We...!" The group paused for a moment, then stubbornly insisted, "We don't need to see it with our own eyes! Anyway, there's no one else here besides him. Who else could it be!"

Bai Huang looked at Bai Wenxiao.

"Brother Xiao, did you kill them?" She pointed to the pile of messy corpses.

Bai Wenxiao shook his head frantically, while giving Bai Huang a silly smile.

"Phoenix! I didn't kill you! No!" He had wounds not only from Xuan power attacks, but also from spirit beasts.

It seems he must have been recklessly searching for himself the whole way.

Bai Huang's heart warmed. "Okay! I believe you!"

Shangguan Ming couldn't help but swiftly put away his jade fan. "Bai Huang, are you crazy? How could you believe in such a monster?"

He originally thought Bai Huang was cold to everyone, but seeing her smiling so indulgently and gently at Bai Wenxiao, that ugly monster, he was immediately annoyed.

In no way can Shangguan Ming compare to this ugly freak.

“He has a sincere heart, but you all are the opposite.” Bai Huang raised her chin. “I see monsters living in the hearts of each and every one of you. How pathetic!”

Shangguan Ling'er stood in the crowd, her eyes darting around, a plan forming in her mind.

She softened her voice.

"So you're going to protect this monster?" Shangguan Ling'er chuckled. "Speaking of which, this monster couldn't have wiped out so many disciples on its own; it must have had accomplices..."

"Yes! Bai Huang is definitely an accomplice!"

"That's right, arrest her too!"

The crowd's eyes flashed with malice, while they were secretly delighted, as if they had finally found Bai Huang's weakness.

Bai Huang didn't care at all.

He summoned the Ice Bow directly.

Today may be a day filled with wounds, but she will still leave with Bai Wenxiao!

With a loud 'boom,' the entire hall suddenly trembled, and the doors and windows began to shake.

"What's wrong?" Everyone ignored Bai Huang and quickly grabbed the wall for support. "What happened?"

Bai Wenxiao immediately pulled Bai Huang behind him. He sniffed the air, his whole demeanor like that of a wary wild beast. "Danger!" he slowly uttered.

The key hidden in Bai Huang's sleeve suddenly started to heat up.

The red dots on the map suddenly enlarged and became incredibly bright.

Suddenly, a huge crack appeared in the ground, and a massive door slowly rose from it, carrying ancient chants and the smell of rust.

'thump' 'thump' 'thump'

The bell tolled, its sound deep and resonant.

Outside the ruins, on a high-rise building, a man in purple robes stood on the roof, gazing at the constantly shaking ruins.

His eerie eyebrows curved upwards.

"It's starting? Little girl... the real show is yet to come!"
