"It's not too troublesome to get rid of this sort of contract. We just need a bigger area. Come with us." As Lie Mingli spoke, he turned around to leave. After thinking for a moment, he turned his head and said, "Don't even think about running. After all, there are a lot of people living in this inn. You don't want anything to happen to them, right?"

Mu Xiaoling pretended to be helpless and sighed. "I'll go with you guys."

Lie Mingli was very satisfied with Mu Xiaoling's intelligence. As long as he had the beast pet in his hands, he would immediately kill the person without stopping. This wilderness was also the lower realm, so even if this person had some connections with the world, who knew if he would be able to get more treasures?

As he thought of this, Lie Ming Li started to walk towards a remote area. Lie Ming Xin and Lie Ming Yun followed closely behind Mu Xiao Ling, staring at their surroundings.

Mu Xiaoling didn't seem to care as she followed them into a forest. She had seen this place before when she was cultivating the [Skydark Mantra]. There was an open area less than half a kilometer ahead of them. It was likely to be their target.

When the three brothers of the Lie Clan saw that Mu Xiaoling had honestly listened to them all the way, they secretly despised her naivety. At the same time, they paid attention to the surrounding movements to avoid being disturbed by others. Thus, they relaxed their surveillance on Mu Xiaoling.

Mu Xiaoling followed Lie Mingli's footsteps and coincidentally, a fierce tiger jumped out from the bushes by the wall to attack them. The three brothers of the Lie clan simply didn't think much of the tiger and immediately raised their hands to hit the tiger. However, the formation slightly shifted, revealing a flaw.

The three brothers never thought that Mu Xiaoling would choose to jump into the river. It was too late to chase after her. They could only see the river flowing rapidly and there was no sign of Mu Xiaoling.

If the three of them were to use their true strength, they would naturally be able to cut off the river and bring the person out. However, they were in the lower realms and their powers were suppressed to the level of Martial Masters, making them unable to contend with the river. They could only watch as the fatty ran away.

"Where does this river lead?" asked Lie Mingxin.

"I asked when we were coming over. It's to China." Lie Mingli said, "I'm really not resigned to this!"

"Me too." Lie Mingyun gnashed his teeth, "I never thought that slut would actually dare to mess with us. I will never let her off!"

Lie Ming replied: "But little miss can't delay it any further."

Lie Mingyun anxiously said, "What's the big deal, how about we split up? Big Brother and Second Brother go find the little miss, I will go chase after her."

Lie Mingli also agreed: "That's good too. However, a martial artist from the lower realms is naturally no match for Third Brother. Wait until Big Brother and I find Little Miss before we head to China to find you."

Lie Mingxin slapped the table, "Then let's do it this way. However, we can't just let those people in the inn go. Mingli and I will go back first and kill everyone before we go find little miss."

Now that they were sure of it, the three brothers separated. The road between Lie Ming Xin and Lie Ming Li turned back, and Lie Ming Yun went down along the river alone.

However, when Lie Mingxin and Lie Mingli arrived at the inn, it was already empty. There wasn't even a single person in the entire inn.

"Damn it!" Lie Mingxin cut the counter into half with a single palm, "We can't let them off that easily!"

"We can't let her go, but the little miss is still the most important." Although Lie Mingli was angry, he still had his reason to stop Lie Mingxin from chasing after him.

Lie Ming Xin unwillingly nodded his head, and followed behind Lie Ming Li out of the inn. He turned around and struck out with his palm, a raging fire burst out and instantly set the inn on fire. Not long after, the entire inn was set ablaze.

When he saw this, he felt a little better and followed Lie Ming Li.

On the other side of the lake, Mu Xiaoling was hugging a tree trunk as soon as she entered the water. She was about to float down to the bottom of the river.

A martial artist had a strong body, so she would be fine for a short period of time. Once she reached a place where the water flowed gently, she would swim to the shore.

It was just that she had been thinking very well, but the Heavens had not fulfilled her wish. This drift lasted for two days and two nights.

Even she was unable to hold on and fainted.

When she woke up again, she was in a patch of reeds, the dense, tall reeds blocked her line of sight, so she was lying on a slightly flat rock, her whole body didn't feel any pain, and she didn't know when she was cut up by a lot of small wounds, but they weren't big wounds. She checked them roughly, and after confirming that there was no bone injury, she slowly stood up and found a direction to stagger towards, but luckily this time, she was lucky.

Not far away, there was an extremely simple shack. Inside the shack, there was firewood. Mu Xiaoling was overjoyed. She really needed a place to warm up.

There was no one in the shack. She took out some clean clothes from her spatial ring to change into wet clothes, and then some firewood. She lit it with a fire piston, and then took out some rations from her spatial ring to heat up.

In reality, she should have been meditating. It was just that she didn't understand the situation, so it wasn't appropriate.

At this moment, she felt someone approach her. Turning around, she saw a girl around her age walk over, looking at her warily. "Who are you? Why are you in my shack?"

Mu Xiaoling looked at the girl and noticed that she was very thin and had several patches on her dress. Her hair was a bit restless and she glanced at her hands. They were rough, but they weren't the same as the hands of martial artists.

Mu Xiaoling saw this and believed the girl's words, "My surname is Mu and my parents were long dead. I wanted to seek refuge with my family but I ran into bandits along the way and escaped here with great difficulty."

"Poor you." The girl looked at the wounds on Mu Xiaoling's body, then at her messy hair. Mu Xiaoling indeed had the bearing of a young miss, so she believed him. After thinking for a while, she couldn't help but ask carefully, "Then, do you want to go to my house to recuperate?"

Since Mu Xiaoling needed a place to rest and to inquire about the situation, the girl naturally agreed. "If that is the case, it would be great."

"My name is Lin Xiangdie. You can just call me Die'er."

"My name is Mu Xiaoling." When Mu Xiaoling saw Lin Xiangdie coming over to support her, she slowly stood up and followed her opponent's lead.

The village that Lin Xiangdie lived in was called the Lin Family Village, and there were only a hundred families in the village. Lin Xiangdie lived in the village, and there were only a hundred families in the village, and a majority of them were named Lin.

Lin Xiangdie had originally been there to retrieve some items, but she didn't want to be caught red-handed. This was the reason for the events that followed.
