"I'll carry you to meet Luo Chao," the little girl giggled, knowing her big brother was already waiting for them there.
Carry? Jiang Yuanyuan was stunned. There were two people here, and the distance wasn't short. How could that be possible?
"Little girl, is your big brother being difficult again? Really, Luo Chao, that guy, left early without a word and now sends a girl to carry us."
Chen Xiaoqi nodded. Luo Chao was practically a beastly character, treating a girl like this—he should be struck by lightning for it.
"Don't speak ill of big brother; he's a good man. Besides, the little girl can carry both sisters," the girl's innocent eyes made Luo Chao's image shrink in the minds of Jiang Yuanyuan and Chen Xiaoqi.
But before they could react, they were hoisted onto her shoulders. She was incredibly strong, with no trouble at all carrying the two women.
"Little girl, put us down. You can't do this!"
With a shriek, the little girl started running. Initially frightened, the two women became excited instead.
Sitting on the little girl's shoulders was incredibly stable, not even a hint of shakiness, like riding in a luxury car.
Looking around in wonder, they realized it wasn't just as stable as a high-end car, but her speed was astonishing.
It was an inhuman feat; how could she achieve such speed, far beyond those professional cyclists?
"Who are you? And just who is Luo Chao to be this powerful?" Jiang Yuanyuan wondered, though her mouth did not voice the question.
"Here we are." In merely ten minutes, they arrived at Shaoshan. Seeing the familiar environment, Jiang Yuanyuan remembered someone.
An uncle, rarely seen since childhood. He lived in Shaoshan, but what was his relationship with these people?
Entering the old man's dwelling, there were no other homes nearby, giving it a very lonely appearance. Had he lived here all these years?
Chen Xiaoqi felt slightly sad; how had he managed in such isolation? Luckily, he now had company, which was better than anything else.
As they entered the area, the old man and Luo Chao spotted them.
"How's the girl's speed? She has the strength to protect them, right?" The old man confidently said. Over the years, not only had Luo Chao progressed, but so had the little girl.
Luo Chao nodded, acknowledging that the girl's strength was indeed sufficient to protect Jiang Yuanyuan and even more than enough for non-mainstream cultivators to enter this place.
Long Li froze upon seeing the doctor's report; that thing had been destroyed. It was a deep humiliation to him, an insult to a man.
"Jiang Yuanyuan, is it? Since you did this, don't blame me for being ruthless." Long Li said through gritted teeth, knowing he couldn't touch her with Luo Chao nearby.
But as for those villagers? They wouldn't have experts by their side. He was determined to kill them all to avenge his body, leaving no one alive.
People around were stunned; Long Li's madness was apparent. His blood-red eyes made others realize he wasn't just talking about killing villagers.
He truly intended to do it, actually wanted to do it.
"Long Li, calm down. We must absolutely not do this. If we do, there's no turning back," someone tried to reason.
Others chimed in; they'd help against non-ordinary people, but targeting ordinary folks would get them hunted down.
If hunted down by authorities, people with his low level would have no hope of survival. Yes, not a chance.
"You refuse, right?" Long Li laughed, seeing the reluctance of those around him, denying him face.
Just a few ordinary folks; killing them was easy. Why hesitate? Yet these people wouldn't accompany him.
"Even if they're ordinary, we can't harm them, or else the nation will punish us." As a newcomer, Long Li knew little about these rules.
But not knowing doesn't mean they don't exist.
"Forget it, I'll go alone then," Long Li said mercilessly, though the killing intent in his eyes faded, causing others to relax slightly.
Long Li walked through the crowd, circling once before leaving, ignoring the screams and curses behind him, as if he hadn't heard them.
"Serves them right to defy my orders. They're courting death," Long Li said as he headed into the depths of the mountain.
"Others have fallen? Is Long Li retreating constantly?" In the Xinyuan Sect, jade pendants shattered one after another, except for Long Li's.
On the screen, Long Li moved swiftly, running from the places where the senior brothers fell, looking as if fleeing for his life.
"The Jiang Family dares act like this, not regarding Xinyuan Sect at all? Bold indeed, but it's only temporary; they won't be arrogant for long," the old man remarked.
The old man looked at Jiang Yuanyuan, "It's been so long. An infant then, now grown into a remarkable beauty?"
Jiang Yuanyuan smiled, bowing slightly, "Uncle, where are your words coming from? I've neglected greetings for too long; I ask for your forgiveness."
They spoke politely, with no hint of familial affection. Though Jiang Yuanyuan visited Shaoshan in childhood, she had little recollection.
"Sit down. If the Xinyuan Sect appears, your Jiang Family might face tough times," the old man chuckled. Xinyuan Sect itself wasn't enemies with Jiang Family.
However, a certain clan within Xinyuan Sect had a long-standing feud with Jiang Family, though he was merely a friend of a former Jiang Family patriarch.
Jiang Yuanyuan took a seat; she truly didn't know these things, and could only listen intently.
