Li Rong's intervention caused the descending temple guards to halt in their tracks.
Here, it wasn't only the church's temple guards; there were also many protectors from the Mage Association arranged to guard Li Rong.
If both sides really started fighting, it was still uncertain who would have the advantage.
"Li Rong, are you defending him? Could it be that you ordered him to assassinate?" Xu Haide roared furiously upon seeing Li Rong's obstruction.
He had suspected her of murder before.
Now that she was defending this man, the first thing that came to his mind was this possibility.
"Defend my ass, you say assassination just like that? Besides, I didn't see him assassinating you, I only saw me holding a banquet here, and you beating someone up," Li Rong retorted with no less force.
