Pei Wuwang, standing beside Shen Qingtang, heard these words.
His body paused almost imperceptibly, and he looked at the dilapidated house with a complicated expression.
But he never spoke.
He had long seen through the selfishness and cold-heartedness of the Pei family. When his mother was tormented and he was framed, these "relatives" never offered a helping hand. Now they were only reaping the consequences of their own actions.
Shen Qingtang patted his shoulder and said softly, "Don't pay attention to them, it's not worth it."
Pei Wuwang turned his head, looked into Shen Qingtang's eyes, and slowly nodded, the last trace of hesitation in his eyes disappearing.
The Pei family members inside the dilapidated house were still cursing wildly.
Shen Qingtang, however, was too lazy to pay any more attention and left the villa with Pei Wuwang, Pei Nian'an, and the Shen family.
She headed towards the valley outside the city, where she had previously used her mental energy to investigate.
They discovered that the area not only had abundant water and wild fruits, but also many crop seeds and medicinal herbs that were scarce in this era.
Upon reaching the valley, everyone's eyes lit up: vast fields of wild wheat and wild fruit trees laden with fruit.
There are also unidentified herbs growing by the stream.
There were even a few high-yield vegetables that have only been seen in modern times.
Shen Qingtang also took out food from her spatial storage and shared it with everyone, which amazed the Shen family members.
"Nian'an has a weak constitution and needs to be properly treated with herbal medicine."
Shen Qingtang looked at Pei Nian'an running by the stream, then turned to Pei Wuwang and said.
"There are several thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum plants on the cliff edge deep in the valley. Let's go pick them."
Pei Wuwang immediately nodded, and the two of them led Pei Nian'an toward the cliff.
Just as they reached the edge of the cliff, a dozen or so men in black suddenly appeared around them, each wielding a curved knife.
Without saying a word, he pounced on the three of them!
Pei Wuwang reacted quickly, shielding Shen Qingtang and Pei Nian'an behind him.
He drew his longsword from his waist and charged forward.
The clanging sound of blades clashing rang out instantly.
Pei Wuwang, with his nimble skills, quickly blocked the first wave of attacks from the men in black.
However, they also noticed that these people's moves were ruthless and all aimed at Shen Qingtang!
"Take Nian'an and step back!"
While parrying, Pei Wuwang shouted to Shen Qingtang, "These people are after you, be careful!"
Shen Qingtang nodded, held Pei Nian'an in her arms, took out a repeating crossbow from her spatial storage, aimed it at the black-clad man who was charging at the front, and with a "whoosh," the arrow accurately hit the man's shoulder, temporarily forcing him to retreat.
Shen Qingtang gripped Pei Nian'an's hand tightly, and with her other hand, she pulled out a modified rifle from her spatial storage.
Yes, just now, at the moment of contact with Nian'an, a rifle appeared in the space, with a long range and great power.
She aimed at the men in black charging at the front, pulled the trigger, and several shots rang out. Several men in black, a hundred meters away, fell to the ground instantly, blood streaming from their chests, and died on the spot.
The remaining men in black had never seen such a powerful weapon before; they were terrified and dared not approach.
He turned and ran out of the valley, faster than a rabbit.
Shen Qingtang didn't chase after them, but just watched their backs, a cold glint in her eyes.
These people are clearly well-trained assassins, and the forces behind them are definitely not simple.
Meanwhile, the fleeing men in black stumbled into a hidden stronghold.
Kneeling before a man wearing a bronze mask, trembling, he cried, "My lord...we've failed! Shen Qingtang possesses a strange weapon, incredibly powerful, we..."
"Useless!" The masked man slammed his fist on the table, his voice icy cold. "I've raised you all for so long, and you can't even handle two people? And what's more, someone actually helped Pei Wuwang in secret, and even restored his sanity!"
The men in black were so frightened that they kowtowed repeatedly.
The cries for mercy continued.
