"ah!"

The male cultivator being targeted by the potato was still completely unaware of the strangeness around him, and was still excitedly preparing to watch his boss unleash his power and beat the people opposite him to a pulp.

After their leader beat the other person down, they stole his storage bag.

Based on their spending in the market, he figured they'd get a good share this time, maybe even a decent amount of spirit stones.

Even if the other party really does spend all the spirit stones, he can take these items to the stall owners in the market to return them and ask them to refund the spirit stones.

He recognized many of the stall owners who had just sold their goods, but they were usually too poor to bother with anything of value, so he disdained to rob them.

Now that he knows the other party has spirit stones, he naturally wants to find a way to get them.

As for returning the goods, of course, he would only return the spirit stones, not the items themselves. He would never give back what he had already obtained to those people.

Even the most ordinary things, once they're in his hands, they're his, and there's no reason to return them. If you want to take something from him, no way!

Thinking this, the male cultivator's smile gradually widened, and he even began to consider what he would buy for himself or what cultivation resources he would exchange for once he got his hands on the items.

What he didn't expect was that before he could even witness the spectacle on the other side, he himself encountered an unexpected problem.

Seeing the sudden change in the scene and the hairy claws coming towards him, his first reaction was that he was in trouble and had fallen into a trap. He then instinctively tried to dodge.

But the claws were too fast. Even though he tried his best to dodge, he still took a solid hit to the face, and instantly felt intense pain.

"Hiss~" He raised his hand to touch it, which hurt his wound, and he gasped in pain.

Seeing the blood on his hands, scratched by a pet rabbit, he couldn't swallow his anger. His chest was instantly filled with rage.

Then, enraged, the male cultivator disregarded everything else and immediately drew his weapon to meet the opponent's second claw strike.

And so he started fighting with the millet and sweet potato, but the more he fought, the more frightened he became.

The firefly rabbit in front of them was not only agile but also had a very strong defense, making it unlike any ordinary pet rabbit.

Even his spiritual energy attacks and the pressure of being a Foundation Establishment cultivator were all neutralized by the other party. It seemed that even he, a Foundation Establishment cultivator, was about to be defeated.

This situation was so bizarre that the male cultivator began to doubt whether the creature opposite him was actually a firefly rabbit, as it was completely different from the firefly rabbit he remembered.

When did this kind of pet rabbit, which could only be used as a spirit pet and was very popular with young ladies from noble families because of its cute appearance, become so powerful?

Or is it a mutated firefly rabbit?

Thinking of this, the man knew he had met his match today and immediately wanted to run away; he had no intention of fighting a mutated spirit beast.

As everyone knows, mutated spirit beasts are exceptionally ferocious, and few can gain the upper hand over them.

With this realization, the male cultivator's determination to escape became even stronger: he stopped fighting and decided to run away!

No matter how hard he searched, he couldn't find a way out, and even his companions who came with him had all disappeared.

This discovery made the man's heart tremble, and he was filled with regret for not checking the identities of the man and the beast before he came.

Yes, the bandits who came out to intercept them were unaware that Lu Li had once released an extremely powerful aura.

They only heard about the cultivator in the market who spent spirit stones like dirt after Wen Jianxi led the Tianyan Sect group away. He was spending lavishly with his spirit pet and was clearly a wealthy person.

So, without asking any further questions, the group hurriedly ran to the market to keep watch.

When they arrived, Shushu and Luli had already reverted to their disguised forms.

Shushu is an ordinary, pampered firefly rabbit, barely at the Foundation Establishment stage, while Lu Li is a Foundation Establishment cultivator.

What the group saw was an ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivator, accompanied by an unremarkable firefly rabbit, who was going on a shopping spree.

Seeing this, the group didn't need to discuss it further and immediately decided to rob them on the road. They then followed them from the market, ready to strike at any moment.

As for the advice they received during this time, saying, "The other party is not to be trifled with," they simply assumed that person was jealous and never considered that the person might genuinely be offering a well-intentioned warning.

Now, as he was being repeatedly defeated by this firefly rabbit that he had looked down upon, he remembered the man's warning and felt extremely regretful. But it was too late.

Realizing this, despair welled up in the male cultivator's heart, and he fought against the sorghum with even more recklessness, seemingly wanting to use this fierceness to bite off a piece of the sorghum's flesh.

But this was Lu Li's territory, and he wouldn't allow the other party to harm Shushu on his land. So, this cultivator with the lowest cultivation level was dealt with by Shushu in just a few breaths.

After dealing with the cultivator, Shushu didn't wallow in self-pity. Instead, he shouted to the sky, "Senior Brother, next!"

In the world of cultivation, strength reigns supreme. If you decide to rob someone, you must be prepared to be robbed in return.

Moreover, if the roles were reversed now, Shushu believed that this person would definitely not show any mercy to him either.

If that's the case, why add unnecessary trouble for her? Acting decisively is the best approach.

"Okay." Soon, Lu Li's response came from the air. Accompanying her was a man who was slightly stronger than the male cultivator she had just dealt with.

This is Lu Li's territory, under his control. If Shushu wants his next opponent, he naturally needs to let him in.

The potato reacted quickly; upon seeing the person appear, it immediately sprang up and launched a fierce attack.

This person reacted much better than the previous one, narrowly avoiding the potato's claws and instinctively retaliating.

However, the potato was not afraid and soon engaged in a fierce battle with the man.

Seeing this from outside, Lu Li was satisfied with Shushu's reaction, confirming that she was evenly matched with the others, before continuing to check on the situation of the remaining people.

Seeing that two of them were significantly stronger than Shushu, and worried that Shushu would be no match for them, he secretly tampered with their abilities, reducing some of their strength.

Only after confirming that Shushu wouldn't suffer any losses even if he faced these people later did they stop what they were doing and continue to observe the battle between Shushu and the cultivator.

At the same time, he noted down the flaws and shortcomings of the millet and sweet potato, planning to improve them for her after returning to the sect.

Of course, Lu Li did not forget to keep an eye on the people outside. When he discovered that some of them had quietly slipped away, he did not stop them, as if he were letting them live.

As for Wen Jianxi, she is still waiting patiently.
