Everyone in the Mu family couldn't help but laugh when they heard Mu Li's firm declaration. The old lady even touched Mu Li's head lovingly and said, "Our little Li'er is the cutest no matter what."
But Mu Li was serious and committed to her mission. Every morning, she rose early to practice horse stance and boxing techniques with the family's guards. Her small frame drenched in sweat in the morning light, her earnest demeanor both endearing and admirable.
Seeing her daughter working so hard, Ling Yue felt deeply distressed and always secretly prepared various delicious snacks for Mu Li. However, Mu Li would only take a small bite each time, then resolutely put it down and continue to devote herself to training.
Mr. Mu often watched from the side, his eyes full of satisfaction and pride.
Mu Li was even more diligent in her cultivation. After entering the space at night, she no longer occasionally slacked off like before, but instead raced against time to absorb spiritual energy and continuously break through her realm.
As the days passed, Mu Li's efforts finally paid off. Her belly gradually disappeared, and her agility became stronger. Even the guards at home improved their skills significantly.
"Dad, I've recently noticed some unfamiliar faces appearing from time to time near our ancestral land. They look like ordinary tourists, but their behavior is very strange." After receiving reports from his men, Mu Bai found Grandpa Mu.
"As Li'er said, we should strengthen patrols. This time we must catch them all in one fell swoop!" Grandpa Mu said with a sharp look.
"Okay, I understand. Do I need to tell Li'er about this?" Mu Li really felt that her daughter was more reliable.
"You are already a grown-up, but you still rely on your daughter for everything. Your future... Let's see the situation first. Besides, didn't Li'er set up a formation in the ancestral land last time? She will definitely notice if something really happens. Li'er is still a child, don't look for her for no reason!" Grandpa Mu felt sorry for his precious granddaughter and said to Mu Bai unhappily.
"Okay, okay, I'll arrange it right away." Mu Bai touched the tip of his nose and walked away covered in dust.
One night, Mu Li suddenly felt an evil force approaching the ancestral land while she was sleeping. She woke up instantly, "Daddy, go to the ancestral land quickly!"
Mu Bai was awakened and quickly took Mu Li to the ancestral land. As soon as they arrived at the ancestral land, they saw a black shadow arranging something around the ancestral land and dancing strangely from time to time.
"Who are you, monster?" Mu Li put an invisibility talisman on Mu Bai, told him to hide, then shouted and rushed towards the black shadow.
The shadowy figure was startled and turned around to run away. Mu Li would not let him succeed and flew after him.
After a chase, Mu Li finally stopped the black shadow.
"Tell me, who sent you?" Mu Li glared at him.
The shadow remained silent and suddenly attacked Mu Li. Mu Li dodged nimbly and engaged in a fierce battle with the shadow.
Just as Mu Li and the shadow were locked in a fierce battle, a sudden flash of light appeared, instantly repelling the shadow. It turned out to be the Mu family's old man arriving with a group of experts.
"Xiao Li'er, are you okay?" the old man asked with concern.
"Grandpa, I'm fine." Mu Li wiped the sweat from her forehead.
The old man looked at the black shadow and snorted coldly: "Tell me, who sent you?"
The black shadow still kept his lips tightly closed, but there was a hint of fear in his eyes.
"Don't want to tell me? Then don't blame me for being rude!" The old man waved his hand, and his men surrounded the black shadow.
At this moment, a powerful force suddenly burst out from the black shadow, broke free from the encirclement of the crowd, and fled into the distance.
"Chase!" The old man gave an order and everyone chased after him.
Mu Li also wanted to follow, but was stopped by the old man: "Xiao Li'er, you stay here and let them chase them, so as to avoid any danger."
Mu Li had no choice but to take out some amulets, hand them to Mr. Mu, and nodded in agreement.
Everyone chased the shadow to a remote valley, but the shadow disappeared.
"Everyone be careful, it's a trap!" the old man warned.
Before he could finish his words, a group of men in black suddenly emerged from all directions and started a fierce battle with the Mu family.
Although the Mu family had many experts, the men in black were extremely tenacious, and for a while both sides were in a stalemate.
Meanwhile, back in the ancestral land, Mu Li felt uneasy. Suddenly, she sensed an even more powerful evil force approaching.
"Oh no, are there still enemies?" Mu Li frowned.
At this moment, a mysterious man in a black robe appeared in front of the ancestral land.
"Little girl, get out of the way!" said the mysterious man coldly.
"Don't even think about it!" Mu Li stood in front fearlessly.
The mysterious man stopped talking and attacked Mu Li directly. Mu Li fought back with all her might, but gradually fell into a disadvantage.
"Girl, you are no match for me! Get out of the way!" the mysterious man shouted sternly.
Mu Li didn't say anything, but her eyes became more determined.
"Are you stupid? Let me out now! I'll eat him!"
Just when Mu Li was about to collapse, a transparent figure appeared out of nowhere and stood in front of her.
"You dare to touch my master!" Taotie roared, emitting a powerful pressure from his body. The mysterious man was also shocked by this momentum and took a few steps back.
The mysterious man obviously didn't expect Mu Li to have another trump card, and immediately wanted to escape.
"Humph, you still want to run away? Stay and give me a snack!"
Seeing that he couldn't escape, the mysterious man had to fight against Taotie with all his strength!
Meanwhile, across the valley, the Mu family, after a bitter battle, finally gained the upper hand. The men in black began to retreat.
"Don't let them run away!" the old man shouted.
At this moment, a man in black suddenly threw a smoke bomb and took advantage of the smoke to escape with the others.
