The spectators were all retreating. Some of them were shouting out while some of them were frantically running away! At that moment, Fane was in no mood to care about anyone else but merely looked over at Rudy.
Rudy seemed exceptionally pitiful in front of the crowd. He had a look of complete horror as he constantly begged for mercy. Since he was seated at the front, he had been the closest to the caretakers. At that moment, they were already in front of him.
The caretakers seemed to have gone mad, slashing at everyone they saw. Their skills were extraordinary. They were at least in the divine solidifying realm. Warriors at that level were absolutely impossible to defeat especially when none of them were over sixty years of age! No one had any ability to stand up to the caretakers!
The caretakers were incredibly quick. After cutting off two heads in front of him, Rudy was right in front of them!
If Fane continued to not do anything, then Rudy would definitely die! Feeling Fane's gaze, Rudy looked over with an expression of complete helplessness.
He knew he was about to die, and he begged for Fane's help! Facing that sudden development, Fane merely stared coldly, not moving his body at all. Even if he saw someone about to kill Rudy, Fane's expressions did not change.
He did not react to anything that was happening at all!
The nine-tailed scarlet fox's eyes reddened more and more, so much that it was beginning to glow. At that moment, it was already using the nine-tailed illusion to the brink. The whole arena had been covered by a red glow.
At that moment, the stage was covered up in that light, but the spectators could still see the stage! Unlike what Fane was seeing, the actual spectators were fine. Nothing had happened, and the caretakers were not on a rampage.
Everything Fane had seen had just been an illusion from the nine-tailed scarlet fox. The spectators had not been hit by the illusion, so all they saw was a man and a beast facing each other.
The fox stared right at Fane, and Fane did not move at all. It was like his whole body had stiffened and was fixed in place.
Someone curiously asked, "Why isn’t Lucius moving? It’s like he's been pinned!"
"Who knows? Could that be his strategy?"
"Can all of you just use your brains?! Don't you see that the nine-tailed fox is already attacking!"
"What? The beast has already attacked? Why don't I see anything? All I see is a red glow surrounding the whole stage. Other than that, nothing is happening! I feel like Lucius is just standing there not moving. I don't feel anything else."
"You’re such an idiot. Have you never heard of illusions?! It looks like this beast is good at illusions, and its natural-born skill should be at quite a high level. Lucius is not moving because he's in an illusion.
"That red fox is waiting for a chance. Once it's sure that Lucius is completely trapped in the illusion, it will launch its attack! If Lucius can't escape the illusion, he's dead!" Arne naturally had some knowledge as a chosen disciple of the Deer Pavilion. When he saw that the red glow had enveloped the whole stage, he was certain that the beast was using an illusory attack!
