The Hall Master spoke, and even though Incense Master Lu and others were concerned for their properties and lives, they still got up and hastily left.
Someone hesitated, whispering, "I'm afraid our Red Mountain Hall might be destroyed today."
Upon hearing this, Incense Master Lu said, "Knowing that calamity is upon us, yet ignoring the people and only caring for one's own escape, what use is reading the sages' books? Today's events will end only in death!"
The people of Red Mountain Hall, upon hearing these words, were deeply stirred and united in purpose.
Chen Shi and Li Tianqing began to hear increasing noise from outside, probably caused by the people of Red Mountain Hall warning the neighbors of the impending danger.
Chen Shi walked outside and saw panic in the streets; people were calling friends and packing up their belongings. However, many were still watching, clearly doubting the imminent Demon Transformation.
