"Cough."

Li Huowang's light cough made the other disciples look over. With full confidence, he looked at their faces and said loudly, "Brothers and sisters! From now on, we won't leave. We'll settle down here in Niu Xin Village. From now on, this is our new home!"

"Li Senior Brother, there's still one missing. Yang Xiaohai hasn't been sent here yet." Gouwa patted the head of the Taoist next to him with his hand.

Yang Xiaohai immediately panicked. He didn't expect to be dragged into this.

"I..." Just as he was stuttering and trying to say something, Li Huowang spoke with disgust, "His address is fake. He doesn't have a home. He's just a beggar."

At this moment, Li Huowang felt his arm go soft and turned his head to see Bai Lingmiao holding onto him.

Seeing her admiring and hopeful gaze, Li Huowang's heart warmed, and he continued, "Since we're talking about this, I'll say everything I want to say. You've all seen how chaotic the world is."

"If we only want to farm and own land, then we're no different from the cows in the fields!"

"So we have to rely on ourselves for protection! I'll teach you everything I know and can teach you."

"In the future, I'll also try to find some supernatural techniques for you all to learn."

Upon hearing this, everyone became excited and started talking.

Looking at the faces below, Li Huowang's eyes became firm.

Other sects can't be relied on, and neither can the Monitoring Bureau. The only ones he can rely on are himself and this group of people with disabilities.

If he wants to survive in this strange place, he must have his own power! Only then can he distance himself from the pain he has experienced.

"Everyone! I'll say it first. The first thing we have to do next is to learn how to read!"

"Learn how to read?"

"Yes, learn how to read!"

Li Huowang touched his stomach with his hand. "That's right, everyone has to learn how to read."

"After we've learned, we'll establish our own sect! Only then can we truly establish ourselves in this world!"

"Others always think we're monsters or trash! But we have to show them that people like us can also make a name for ourselves in this world!"

"We're not monsters! No one can sell us or look down on us anymore! As long as we work hard together, our future will definitely be better and better!"

"Good!"

"Good!"

"Good!"

The cheers of the crowd almost lifted the roofs of Niu Xin Village. Looking at the united brothers and sisters in front of him, Li Huowang smiled, very happy.

But at this moment, raindrops fell from the sky, washing away Li Huowang's smile and all the cheers.

The rain fell pitter-patter, and Li Huowang stood silently at the head of Niu Xin Village with a paper umbrella in his hand, watching the white smoke rising from the chimney.

There was no one else here, only Li Huowang on the desolate muddy yellow road. The things that just happened were just illusions in his mind.

Li Huowang had been standing here since yesterday morning, standing for a day and a night.

Because of the damp weather, Li Huowang's paper skin was damp and moldy, but he didn't have time to care about that.

When he saw Yang Xiaohai, wearing a bamboo hat and leading an old cow out of the village, he lifted his almost stiff joints and walked towards Niu Xin Village.Seeing Li Huowang finally move, Red, whose half body was stuck in the tree trunk, had a sinister smile on his face as he elbowed the monk next to him. "Monk, hehehe, now we have a good show to watch."

When Li Huowang walked into the village, he was immediately seen by Yang Xiaohai, who was excited to greet him, but was soon frightened by Li Huowang's appearance.

"Ah! Senior Li! Why is the skin on your face gone again? And why are you wearing paper clothes?"

"Where is Miao Miao?" Li Huowang's voice was hoarse and smelled of blood.

"At this time, Senior Bai should be in her own room. Li Senior, what's wrong? Have you heard any news about the missing Bai family members?"

Silent Li Huowang lifted his heavy footsteps and walked towards the Bai family.

Soon, Li Huowang's return home caused a sensation, and everyone came out to greet him. But soon, their joy was affected by Li Huowang's emotions and gradually calmed down.

Gouwa cautiously approached. "What's wrong, Senior Li? It seems like you haven't found anything. Well, if you haven't found anything, then you haven't found anything. It's not your fault."

Li Huowang gritted his teeth and pushed him away, his footsteps quickening and getting faster behind him.

When Li Huowang threw down the umbrella and arrived at the gate of the Bai family's courtyard, he ran into the panicked Bai Lingmiao.

When Bai Lingmiao saw that Li Huowang had come back alone, her heart sank. But when she saw the tragic state of Li Huowang's melted skin and flesh in the rain, she suddenly felt a pain in her heart. She didn't care about anything else and grabbed Li Huowang's arm with both hands, leading him to her boudoir.

Bai Lingmiao held a soft towel in her hands and pressed it on Li Huowang's body, absorbing the water droplets on his charred skin.

She didn't dare to wipe it, because she was afraid that if she used too much force, she would wipe away the fragile flesh on Li Huowang's body.

Bai Lingmiao had seen this kind of injury before and understood that Senior Li must have encountered some kind of dangerous illusion to use such a self-destructive move.

Bai Lingmiao washed the towel in the basin, "Senior Li, I'm fine, really, don't worry about me."

"It's been so many days, I've actually gotten used to them being gone."

"Since they're gone, Senior Li, let's just wait here. They will come back someday."

Li Huowang gritted his teeth, and his clenched fists trembled slightly.

Just as the words were about to come out of his mouth, Red, who was excited, jumped out and gestured wildly in front of Li Huowang.

"Hurry, hurry, hurry! Lie to her and say you didn't find anything! The Bai family may have really gone to take refuge with Lord Lü!"

Li Huowang suddenly opened his eyes wide and stared at Red with a murderous look.

"Why are you staring at me? I'm helping you! Think about it, the Bai family is already dead. If you tell her now, what other use is there besides making her heartbroken?"

"Oh! Right, there is one, you'll make her hate you even more, and want to kill you, the patricide."

"On the other hand, if you do what I say, she won't be sad, and she'll still have hope in her heart."
