When he woke up, his entire body was sore and his consciousness was stuck in the chase by the black bear. He had to burn his blood energy in a hurry to stimulate his potential in order to escape danger.

Ling Hao opened his eyes and looked at his surroundings.

It was a shabby room with a piece of cured meat hanging on the wall.

It could be said that the bed was covered with a very thin blanket.

The door was pushed open and an eight to nine-year-old girl walked in. She was wearing yellow linen robes, and her face was yellow. Her hair was slightly yellow.

Maybe it's because of a long period of malnutrition.

When she saw Ling Hao, her eyes sparkled with light.

"Big Brother, you're awake. I'll go call my mother." The little girl quickly turned around.

Her name was Zhu Hong, and she was eight years old this year. A few days ago, when she went out to help her mother chop firewood, she found a youth by the river. It was Ling Hao.

She lived in a refugee camp north of White Stone City. Monstrous beasts ran rampant in White Stone City. Only she and her mother were lucky enough to escape.

Outside of the door, there were endless whining and wounding from the outside. There were many guards patrolling the area, and they were afraid that the demonic beasts would chase them here.

"You're awake? Hong'er, go cut up the cured meat and cook porridge for this big brother."

Zhu Hong was stunned for a moment. She remembered that this was the only thing in the house.

In White Stone City, her family ate and drank. Although they were poor, it was still more lively.

Because of those terrifying demon beasts, her father and brother were torn to shreds by the demon beasts in order to protect the two of them.

The horror of the scene had left a deep mark on her young heart.

Ling Hao looked at the woman. It seemed that she had sewed her clothes many times.

The rare thing was that his child didn't have a sewn mark.

"Auntie, there's no need."

The woman smiled and said, "Young man, were you also attacked by demonic beasts? When I found you, you were covered in injuries, and you actually managed to miraculously survive.

Zhu Hong took the cured meat and went outside to busy himself in the kitchen.

He was a cultivator and would automatically recover from such a small injury. Of course, in the eyes of others, this was a miracle.

Ling Hao got off the bed and said gratefully, "Many thanks to the aunt for saving my life."

"It's nothing it's nothing it's nothing, you must be from White Stone City right? Our White Stone City has now become the home of demon beasts."

As the woman spoke, her eyes were filled with tears.

It was only after Ling Hao asked that he found out the reason. Monstrous beasts had formed a tide and attacked humans, treating them as food.

"This family must have enjoyed themselves before their deaths, living happily. However, after this incident, they are in a miserable state."

"If I recover my strength, I must go to White Stone City to have a look. If I meet any demon beasts, I must kill them!"

Ling Hao's mood was chaotic, and he somewhat hated those demon beasts. These people were very innocent, so what was wrong with them?

After a while, the little red girl brought in three bowls of porridge. It was made from rice and cured meat.

"That's right, Hong'er, how many days have I been unconscious for?"

"Big brother, it's been two days."

From the looks of it, he could not stay here for long. There were only four more days until the student recruitment event. He had to enter the Infinite Devil Sect, otherwise, his soaring cultivation would affect his future cultivation.

Looking at the little girl in front of him, his heart warmed.

"Hong'er, tell your brother, do you hate those weird-looking monsters?"

Scarlet gritted her teeth, her eyes full of resentment.

"I hate them! They ate father and brother!"

"Daddy will never let me sit on his shoulder again."

"Big brother won't make me happy every time."

Thinking of this, Zhu Hong's eyes reddened.

"Then brother will promise you that tomorrow, I will capture those demon beasts and give them to you to eat, okay?"

Killing intent filled Ling Hao's heart. This mother and daughter had saved him, but now he had to even eat their only possessions.

For the first time he resented himself.

"Big Brother, is the demon tasty?" Zhu Hong blinked his big eyes.

Ling Hao smiled gently and said, "Delicious. I'll catch some for you tomorrow, okay?"

"Alright."
