A Threat (3)

Under the threat from their combined energies, Lu Shaochen grew very pale in the face. His own aura became unstable and he slumped unwillingly. 

"Lu Shaochen, don't think that I don't know about your friend in there. That woman is responsible for trying to assassinate old Master Murong. Get out of the way immediately! If anything happens to the Murong family, will you be the one to assume responsibility?"

Elder Er grew anxious as he threw out all the energy from within his system. His priority now was to get Lu Shaochen out of the way in the fastest way possible so that they could go in and save the old master. 

"Stop!"

Suddenly, a melodious voice which was as clear as a bell rang from outside the courtyard. Elder Er was stunned and turned towards Murong Rou'er who was on her way towards the scene. However, once he saw the young girl behind her, his expression sank.
