"Since you know about the outside world, haven't you ever thought about getting out of here?" Sun Muqing couldn't help but ask curiously.
Grandma Orchid chuckled, as if she had heard something very funny.
"Why should I go out? What good would it do? I think life here is just fine," Grandma Orchid said, shaking her head.
“But there are various sects outside, with even more powerful techniques, and all sorts of new and interesting things outside…” Sun Muqing added.
Granny Orchid said nonchalantly, "But there are also grudges and entanglements outside, hatred and killings. My husband had no choice but to flee into Qianlinchuan to escape the pursuit of his enemies. As for you, I think you didn't enter Qianlinchuan for no reason, did you? Are you looking for something, or are you hiding from someone's pursuit? Or are you here to hunt someone down?"
Upon hearing what Granny Lan Hua said, both Jiang Lingxuan and Sun Muqing looked extremely embarrassed.
Because they were right.
They were indeed there to hunt down someone.
Seeing the expressions on Jiang Lingxuan and Sun Muqing's faces, Granny Lanhua knew that her guess was correct, but she did not intend to meddle and therefore did not ask any questions.
Sun Muqing said, "Since Granny Lan Hua has put it that way, I might as well tell you. My name is Sun Muqing, and this is Jiang Lingxuan. We come from a top sect called Shenmu Sect from the outside world. We came to Qianlinchuan to hunt down a thief who stole our sect's cultivation techniques. That thief is called One-Eyed Hermit."
"Knowing that he was no match for our sect, the One-Eyed Hermit fled into the Thousand Forest River to avoid capture. Our pursuit team had no choice but to follow. There were more than just the two of us in the Thousand Forest River to pursue him; there were eight or nine others as well."
"Neither of us are the most powerful in the pursuit team. The most powerful is an elder who leads us. His name is Cao Zhengjian, and he is now a martial arts master at the Transcendent Realm."
Sun Muqing paused for a moment at this point.
After all, she had said too much in one breath, so they needed to give Grandma Orchid and her granddaughter Baiyun some time to process it.
After a moment, Sun Muqing said seriously, "That one-eyed hermit is no good person. He has hidden in Qianlinchuan and will definitely become a threat to you. If he discovers you, he may do something bad to you. So I advise you, people of your village, not to go out hunting from today onwards, lest you encounter the one-eyed hermit."
"The One-Eyed Hermit is also a martial arts master at the Transcendent Realm. The only one who can deal with him is Elder Cao Zhengjian, who brought us here. If the people of your village encounter him, they will surely die!"
Grandma Orchid's face turned very pale, and Baiyun looked frightened.
Bai Yun hurriedly said, "But if the hunting team doesn't go out hunting, there simply won't be enough food for our village."
"What do you usually eat?" Jiang Lingxuan asked.
“We grow our own food, but it’s not enough, so we have to hunt for some of it,” Baiyun said with a wry smile.
This village is really too backward.
It was bad enough that there were no high-level martial artists, but they couldn't even meet their own needs. This left Sun Muqing speechless for a moment.
Just then, a deafening roar came from outside, along with cries of pain!
The man's roar, the woman's screams and cries came one after another from outside.
"What happened? Did the One-Eyed Hermit discover this place?" Sun Muqing's expression immediately turned very ugly.
"Let's go out and take a look!"
After saying that, Jiang Lingxuan rushed outside.
Sun Muqing followed Jiang Lingxuan out of the house and immediately saw a large lizard rampaging through the village. Several houses had been destroyed, and many villagers had been injured.
Da Feng, Hei Tu, and other martial artists are currently dealing with the giant lizard.
However, that giant lizard was a peak fifth-tier demon beast, and Da Feng and the others were no match for it at all.
In a short period of time, two more martial artists were injured by the giant lizard.
Fortunately, Da Feng and the others came to the rescue in time and successfully saved the two injured martial artists, preventing them from losing their lives.
"What...what's going on..."
Granny Orchid and Baiyun also came out, and they were both shocked by the scene before them.
"Looks like I'll have to step in this time."
After saying that, Sun Muqing leaped into the air, and the Remnant Wind Sword appeared in her hand.
As soon as he reached the giant lizard, Sun Muqing raised his hand and thrust out with his sword.
The first move of the Clear Light Jade Palace Sword Technique: Sword Breaks the Clear Wind!
As a bright sword light burst forth, the head of the peak fifth-tier lizard monster was instantly pierced through by Sun Muqing's sword.
The giant lizard monster let out a miserable howl, then collapsed to the ground with a thud and remained motionless.
Seeing Sun Muqing kill the giant lizard monster with a single sword strike, the villagers at the scene were extremely excited.
"Thank you so much, fairy sister!"
"The fairy sister is a great benefactor to our village!"
We will never forget the great kindness and virtue of the fairy sister!
The villagers at the scene shouted excitedly, while Da Feng, Hei Tu, and other martial artists looked at Sun Muqing with awe and envy.
Sun Muqing's displayed strength was so formidable that it couldn't help but arouse their envy.
Moreover, this giant lizard is really huge, almost the size of a house, and weighs at least tens of thousands of kilograms!
Seeing Sun Muqing put away the Broken Wind Sword and float down from the sky, Jiang Lingxuan stepped forward and said with a smile, "Thank you for your hard work."
"It's nothing, it's what I should do." Sun Muqing smiled and shook her head.
Then Sun Muqing looked at Granny Lanhua and asked, "Is the meat of this monster edible?"
"It should... be okay, right?" Granny Orchid said uncertainly.
"It's never a bad thing to give it a try. We should be the first to try something new!" Jiang Lingxuan said jokingly.
Just then, a strong wind came rushing in.
He looked at Sun Muqing and Jiang Lingxuan with awe before saying to Granny Lanhua, "Clan leader, more than ten people have been injured, and several houses have collapsed."
"Has anyone died?" Granny Orchid asked.
"No, we discovered the monster very quickly and warned it immediately, so everyone in the village took cover and no one was eaten by it," Da Feng said quickly.
"That's good, that's good. It's the best outcome that no one gets eaten by the monsters." Granny Orchid breathed a deep sigh of relief.
Sun Muqing asked curiously, "Have there been any incidents of monsters breaking into the village before?"
