Fearing that the Heaven and Earth Society would continue to cause trouble for Li Xiang, Jiang Yuan and Ning Yanlan did not stay long before heading back.

However, they still encountered a few monsters along the way, but thanks to their tacit cooperation, the low-level monsters were just there to deliver Holy Spirit Stones.

"Not bad, you even contributed two cores!" Jiang Yuan exclaimed, looking at the cores in his hand. One was black iron and the other was mithril, both dropped by second-tier monsters.

"Jiang Yuan, I'm feeling uneasy! Let's hurry back!" Ning Yanlan looked worried, whether because the data on the USB drive had been destroyed or something else.

"Have you fully recovered?" Jiang Yuan asked.

Previously, Ning Yanlan was struck by the Holy Spirit Beast. At that time, Jiang Yuan really thought Ning Yanlan was dead. Fortunately, she was tough enough to survive. But thinking about it, one can imagine how much damage such an attack would have caused her.

"I still have some injuries that can't be repaired with the Light of Nature in the short term!" Ning Yanlan pointed to her right shoulder, where the bones had been shattered, but were barely able to coalesce under the influence of the Light of Nature and spiritual energy.

"In the spirit of caring for the wounded, come on!" Jiang Yuan stretched out his hands.

"What?" Ning Yanlan asked, puzzled.

"Carry you on my back or hug you, take your pick!" Jiang Yuan said bluntly.

"Uh-huh!" Ning Yanlan paused, then said, "Carry me, my shoulders are a little sore, you were too rough when you carried me!"

Without saying a word, Jiang Yuan squatted down, and Ning Yanlan did not resist and lay down on him. The two had done things even more outrageous than this, so they were not afraid of physical contact now.

Jiang Yuan's physical strength was at least over 20, so as long as his stamina kept up, he could run like the wind. The two of them carried the supplies and ran all the way back.

Ning Yanlan actually fell asleep under such circumstances. Her peaceful appearance leaning on Jiang Yuan's shoulder made Jiang Yuan dare not make any big movements. Her soft breathing fell on his cheek, which made him feel very sorry for her. "She is probably too tired. She hasn't had a single day of rest!"

As he spoke, Jiang Yuan shook his head and smiled bitterly. In this world where it's a matter of life and death, who can relax? At least now is not the time to relax.

When Jiang Yuan arrived at Li Xiang's house, he frowned as a bloody smell wafted from inside.

"The Heaven and Earth Society is here again?" Jiang Yuan immediately sensed something was wrong. They hadn't expected that the Heaven and Earth Society members, who had been beaten half to death last night, would still dare to come this morning.

He left the supplies he was carrying in the yard and then quickly strode inside.

Upon entering the house, Jiang Yuan felt relieved, but at the same time, a tremendous surge of anger welled up within him.

"What's going on?" Jiang Yuan asked in a deep voice.

Standing in front of him were Li Xiang and her daughter, both of whom were in a state of shock, especially Xiao Xin, whose shoulder-length short hair had been completely cut off. Li Xiang also had injuries.

Not only people, but the entire living room was filled with a pungent smell of blood. The murals in the living room were splattered with dog blood, which was also the source of the bloody smell.

“People from the Heaven and Earth Society came!” Li Xiang sobbed softly, holding Xiao Xin.

Li Xiang's sobs woke Ning Yanlan. When Ning Yanlan woke up, she was first confused, and then angry.

"Heaven and Earth Society!" Ning Yanlan dismounted from Jiang Yuan's back. "We shouldn't have spared these scumbags' lives last night!"

"elder sister!"

Xiao Xin rushed up and hugged Ning Yanlan, then burst into tears, crying, "Sister, they cut my hair and hit Mom!"

"Sister-in-law, are you hurt anywhere?" Ning Yanlan asked Li Xiang anxiously.

"No!" Li Xiang sighed deeply. "Forget it, we can't fight them, so we won't! Tomorrow, Xiao Xin and I will move out!"

Her daughter had her head shaved, she was verbally abused and beaten, and her house was splattered with dog blood. These experiences made Li Xiang completely give in. Her attitude towards organized crime remained unchanged, and she chose to let things go when she was bullied.

"Sister-in-law, giving in like this won't work!" Ning Yanlan first used Natural Light on Li Xiang, then turned around and picked up Xiao Xin, saying softly, "Xiao Xin, we won't bully people, but we can't let others bully us either! Your sister and brother will make those people apologize to you later, no, we'll shave their heads first and then make them apologize!"

"What do you think?" Ning Yanlan asked Xiao Xin.

"Yanlan, your injuries haven't healed yet!" Jiang Yuan reminded her. Although Ning Yanlan had a good temper, she was actually someone who would seek revenge for any wrong done to her.

Moreover, his body had not fully recovered. He had suffered most of the damage in the battle with the Holy Spirit Beast. Bloodlust had recovered somewhat afterward, but not completely.

"Sister, can you wait until you're healed before you go? Those are bad people. If we don't make them apologize, they'll always bully us!" Xiao Xin said, her voice trembling with tears.

"Okay, then I'll take you tomorrow!" Ning Yanlan looked at Xiao Xin with pity in her eyes. A seven or eight-year-old girl had her head shaved off. How much indelible shadow must this have left on the child's heart?

"Yanlan!" Li Xiang bit her lip, unable to make a choice.

"Sister Li, it's alright. Yanlan is very strong, there's no need to be afraid of them!" Jiang Yuan could only say this, since he was just a weakling who hadn't even awakened his spiritual power yet!

"Thank you, Sister Yanlan, thank you, Brother Jiangyuan!"

Xiao Xin broke free from Ning Yanlan's embrace and then gave the two of them a proper thank-you bow.

"Those bastards, they even dared to lay a hand on such a sensible child as Xiaoxin!" Ning Yanlan was even angrier.

"I'll go cook for you!" Li Xiang didn't want to put the others in a difficult position, so she tried to change the subject, but she stopped as soon as she went in. She turned around awkwardly and saw the two empty-handed men.

"I forgot, there's no food left!"
