Lin Qianqian finished communicating with the system, but the fighting was still going on outside. Since she didn't know the reason for the conflict or which side was good, Lin Qianqian didn't plan to intervene at the moment.

After fighting for a long time, although the group of men in black outnumbered the group in the dilapidated temple twice as many, the people in the dilapidated temple were highly skilled in martial arts. Although there were casualties, they still gained the upper hand.

The group was so engrossed in the game that they didn't notice the online store in the dark.

In the midst of the fight, a guard-like man was struck by a palm strike from the man in black, staggered back dozens of meters, and fell near the mall.

Taking advantage of their inattention, Lin Qianqian quietly brought the person over. After bringing them into the mall, she used a bewitching technique before they could react.

When you arrive in a new dimension, information is crucial. It's difficult to determine the truthfulness of the answers from the locals if you ask them directly. It's better to use a spell or observe their memories.

With her current Nascent Soul stage cultivation, using the Bewitching Technique wouldn't damage their souls; at most, it would cause some dizziness. Before long, Lin Qianqian understood the situation.

This is an ancient world where several nearby countries are martial arts-loving and there are many different sects in the martial arts world.

The country where the mall is located is called the Tianwu Dynasty. The old emperor fell ill three years ago and has to stay in bed from time to time, unable to attend court. His control over the government has also been relaxed.

The court gradually descended into chaos, with treacherous officials rising up everywhere. Yet, even so, he neither designated an heir nor abdicated, firmly grasping onto power.

His seven sons gradually gained power and fought tooth and nail for the throne, which he was powerless to control.

In recent years, the country has been plagued by floods, snowstorms, droughts, and locust plagues. Northern nomadic tribes have taken the opportunity to burn, kill, and plunder on the border. Various sects in the martial arts world have been fighting each other and causing constant turmoil. As a result, the people of Tianwu Dynasty are suffering and many towns are nearly empty.

Not long ago, the emperor suddenly passed away without leaving a will for succession. The emperor's seven sons turned against each other and started fighting. In the end, this internal strife in the dynasty left only the cruel second prince and the fifth prince, whose birth mother was a palace maid and who was not valued.

Compared to the capricious second prince, the fifth prince was capable and benevolent, managing his fiefdom well and even managing to protect the people there during years of famine. Therefore, despite his humble origins, he had many supporters, including many members of the royal family who favored his ascension to the throne.

The Tianwu Dynasty is in dire straits and urgently needs someone to step forward and take charge. The Fifth Prince has been recommended by the royal family and ministers to return to the capital and ascend the throne.

But the Second Prince and his supporters wouldn't let him return smoothly to ascend the throne. On his journey from his fiefdom to the capital, the Fifth Prince endured numerous assassination attempts, poisonings, bandit raids, arson attacks on inns, honey traps, and elaborate self-inflicted wounds…

The journey was hundreds of miles long, with minor disasters every day and major calamities every three days. In short, the road was fraught with difficulties.

Of the two hundred guards brought by the Fifth Prince, some were injured, some were killed, and some were scattered, leaving only a dozen or so. Fortunately, not long ago, many martial arts masters came to escort him back to the capital.

This evening, after repelling a wave of enemies, several men were wounded, so they found a dilapidated temple to rest. However, they lacked medical care and food, and some were seriously wounded. Before they could even treat the wounded, another wave of pursuers arrived.

After getting a general understanding of the situation, the three quickly analyzed the current circumstances and finalized a plan. They decided to first use charlatan tactics—no, I mean, divine means—to intimidate them and seize the initiative.

Luo Zexuan turned on the lights on the outer wall of the mall, instantly illuminating the surroundings as if it were daytime. The two sides, who were still locked in a life-or-death battle, separated instantly, turning to look at the mall while on guard.

When did such a bright and shiny house appear around the dilapidated temple? They were sure they hadn't seen it before, and this was the question on everyone's mind!

Ahem! Lin Qianqian coughed twice, drawing everyone's attention. Only then did everyone notice that a fairy-like woman was standing in front of the semi-transparent door (Luo Zexuan and Wen Mingyue were left in the mall and hadn't come out).

"Gentlemen, it's not good to fight in the middle of the night. Not only do you disturb other people's rest, but you also disturb the flowers and plants from sleeping peacefully. You have no sense of public morality."

Hearing these absurd arguments, the Fifth Prince and the martial arts practitioners exchanged bewildered glances.

Hey, is that something a fairy should say?

The Fifth Prince's men didn't move, but the men in black on the other side couldn't hold back any longer. A henchman stepped forward with a knife, pointing the tip at Lin Qianqian, and said, "What are you, pretending to be a ghost? Get out of the way, or I'll kill you too."

"Kill me? Ha, you're quite the warrior!"

As soon as Lin Qianqian finished speaking, she reached out and grabbed dozens of men in black. These men were lifted by an invisible force, rising more than ten meters into the air. Lin Qianqian then twisted her fingers, causing the dozens of men opposite her to spin rapidly 360 degrees in mid-air, their screams and cries of terror echoing through the night.

Lin Qianqian had had her fill of fun. With a gentle wave of her hand, the group of men in black in the air disappeared into the dark night sky like shooting stars.

She clapped her hands and said to the Fifth Prince and the others, "Alright, the ungrateful ones are gone. You all must be short of medicine and food and in dire need of help, right? I have everything here. Why don't you come in and have a seat?"

After she finished speaking, she looked at the group of people, and they looked at her back, but no one said a word.

Lin Qianqian felt offended. Was she invisible? No one listened to her. She was a Nascent Soul cultivator, after all. Didn't she have any dignity?

With a flick of his sleeve, the group of people were suddenly transported to a brightly lit place. Above them hung glowing glass spheres, and to their left was a strange platform with unfamiliar objects on it. Beside the platform were tables and chairs, presumably for resting, and a man and a woman stood in front of them.

The rest of the place was full of shelves filled with all kinds of food... but that's not the point. The point is how they managed to go from a dark and desolate dilapidated temple to this warm and bright house in the blink of an eye.

Could they have encountered some kind of demon or monster? But looking at the ethereal Lin Qianqian, it seems they've met a deity...?

Whether it was repelling the men in black or simply showing off her skills, Lin Qianqian did it intentionally. In this world of high martial arts, chaos reigns, the court is unstable, the regime is unclear, and various factions in the martial arts world are constantly fighting. If she wants to complete her mission quickly in this world, she must demonstrate her strength and deter the malicious covetousness of all sides.

Having arrived in the high-martial arts world, their goal was clear: to obtain various martial arts manuals, internal energy cultivation methods, and even unique medicinal formulas and pills found only in the martial arts world, such as Black Jade Satin Renewal Ointment and Nine-Flower Jade Dew Pill.

Therefore, it is essential to take the lead; otherwise, you will only be treated as a pushover. Lin Qianqian's idea is that simple and straightforward.

When people suddenly arrive in an unfamiliar place, they generally dare not make any rash moves, but every world has one or two reckless fools.

And so, a burly man with a full beard, already injured and somewhat disoriented, inexplicably found himself in this place.

In a moment of impulsiveness, he grabbed his broadsword and charged forward, shouting, "Who's blind enough to dare mess with your grandpa?"

Before Lin Qianqian could even lift a finger, the mall's protection mechanism activated, and a bolt of lightning struck the burly man out of nowhere. He instantly collapsed to the ground, convulsing, his life hanging in the balance.

This unexpected turn of events stunned everyone, and the group became somewhat flustered. It was truly a miraculous feat!

"Don't panic, everyone. We mean no harm. As long as you don't have any evil intentions, you won't be struck by lightning. I'm saving you because I believe you're not bad people, so don't let me down."

The people opposite looked at each other in bewilderment. What the hell do you mean they believed he wasn't a bad guy? Did bad guys have words written on their faces?
