The two looked at each other, and the worry in each other's eyes gathered like dark clouds. The more they talked, the more they felt that there was an unspeakable mystery hidden behind this series of events.

There was an ominous atmosphere in the air, as if an invisible hand was controlling everything behind the scenes.

Just as they were immersed in deep thought, a deafening noise suddenly came from the direction of the cafeteria, like a bolt from the blue, instantly breaking the tranquility around them.

This sudden sound, like an alarm bell, instantly made the two people's nerves tense to the extreme.

"Oh no, it's Rong'er's side!"

Zou Mubai stood up almost reflexively, the anxiety on his face difficult to conceal.

If something really happens to Rong'er, the consequences will be disastrous.

Thinking of this, he no longer cared about the pain in his body. He summoned his internal strength, and with a flash of his body, he flew towards the cafeteria like an arrow.

When Fei Xiuwen saw this, his heart tightened and he hurriedly followed behind.

Although he said that he was protected by a formation, he knew deep down that any defense would be so fragile in the face of such a powerful monster.

As he sped up to catch up with Zou Mubai, he prayed secretly, hoping that Rong'er would be safe.

The two walked through the winding path, crossed several gates, and finally arrived in front of the dining hall.

As soon as the two arrived outside the dining hall, they saw many disciples wearing the uniform of the Wanjing Sect standing outside, looking inside curiously.

I saw that the door of the cafeteria had been blown into pieces by a powerful force, with wood chips flying everywhere, smoke and dust rising, and the surroundings were in a mess.

A large section of the wall next to the dining hall's main door had collapsed, revealing a corner of the courtyard and the inner hall.

Zou Mubai didn't care about anything else and rushed in first. Fei Xiuwen followed closely behind.

They looked around vigilantly and called out Rong'er's name, but all they got in response was deathly silence and the occasional faint gasp.

Just when Zou Mubai and Fei Xiuwen were burning with rage and almost losing control, wanting to vent their indignation on the innocent Wan Jing Sect disciples, a gentle and familiar voice sounded in their ears like a clear spring, stopping their impulsive outburst in time.

"Brother Zou, stop shouting, we are here. Rong girl is fine, but... there are some special circumstances."

There was a hint of embarrassment and apology in Xu Chong's voice. He patted Zou Mubai's shoulder gently and gestured for them to look behind him with a flickering look in his eyes.

Following Xu Chong's guidance, Zou Mubai and Fei Xiuwen's eyes fell on a strange scene not far away.

He Ronger, the usually gentle and lovely girl, was standing with an unprecedented concentration, her hands stretched straight forward, her palms facing a seemingly indestructible wall.

That wall was one of the defensive fortifications that the Wanjing Sect was proud of. It was carefully painted with intricate defensive runes by the sect's top spiritual weapon masters. Normally, even a cultivator with a high level of cultivation would find it difficult to shake it.

Just as the two were full of doubts and were about to ask, a hint of determination suddenly flashed across He Ronger's little face.

She took a deep breath, and the spiritual power in her palms seemed to be awakened by some mysterious force. It began to surge wildly, and finally gathered into a bright light, which, accompanied by a roar, slammed into the wall fiercely.

This scene shocked everyone present.

The wall that was once as solid as a rock became as fragile as paper under He Ronger's palm. Cracks spread rapidly and finally collapsed with a loud bang. Amidst the flying dust, an open space behind the wall was revealed.

"This...what's going on?" Zou Mubai was shocked and puzzled by He Ronger's power.

Fei Xiuwen also frowned, with complex light flashing in his eyes. Obviously, the strength displayed by He Ronger far exceeded their expectations.

At this moment, He Ronger's face turned slightly pale, seemingly due to excessive consumption, but her eyes were shining with excitement and satisfaction.

But she did not stop. Instead, she turned around and stood facing the other wall for a long time.

Upon seeing this, Xu Chong hurriedly stepped forward and briefly explained what had happened.

"Rong was about to stand up after her epiphany, but her face suddenly turned red and her body began to swell uncontrollably. I was worried that something might happen to her, so I guided her to release her spiritual power, and this is what happened."

Seeing that Rong'er was safe and sound, the two of them finally felt relieved.

At this moment, the sound of the wall collapsing was heard again behind him.

Xu Chong shook his head helplessly, his face full of bitterness and helplessness.

He placed one hand gently on his chest, as if there was an invisible pressure there, and his voice was unconsciously filled with a hint of heartache and pain.

"That's great. My wallet is going to get a lot thinner. The defensive runes of the Wanjing Sect can't be repaired easily. I'm afraid these spirit stones will flow out like water."

He secretly calculated in his mind that if he had to bear the entire bill himself, it would be a real headache.

No, I absolutely cannot let myself suffer this loss alone.

Thinking of this, Xu Chong suddenly turned his head, his eyes moving back and forth between Zou Mubai and Fei Xiuwen, finally fixing on them. He forced a slightly awkward and flattering smile at the corner of his mouth, trying to use this smile to soften the hearts of his two good friends.

Seeing this, Zou Mubai frowned slightly.

Fei Xiuwen had a playful smile on his face, and he watched Xu Chong's performance with great interest, as if he was watching a wonderful drama.

He spoke slowly, with a hint of teasing in his voice: "Oh? Brother Xu, what are you singing about?"

Hearing this, Xu Chong hurriedly stepped forward with a smile and said, "Oh, Brother Fei, you misunderstood. That's not what I meant. You see, we are good brothers who go in and out together, so we naturally have to face difficulties together.

Although Rong Yatou's mistake was unintentional this time, the damage caused was real. I thought, since we are all family, we should share this responsibility, right? "

There was some sincerity, some helplessness, and some calculation in his words.

But he knew that Zou Mubai was always generous.

Sure enough, after hearing Xu Chong's words, Zou Mubai just looked at him deeply, and then threw him a bag of spirit stones: "Take it, go and clean up the mess."

Xu Chong took the bag of spirit stones, weighed it in his hand, and immediately smiled: "Yes, I promise to complete the task!"

At this time, He Ronger had already vented all the spiritual power that was about to explode in her body, and she leaned against the wall weakly, panting. When she turned around and saw the spiritual stone bag in Xu Chong's hand, her eyes immediately lit up.

"Xu Chong, you are disloyal. Why don't you think of sharing some of your spiritual stones with me?"
