When Mo Xiaoya returned to her parents' home three days later, she indeed wore the clothes made by the tailor given to her by Yun Yuniang, and even brought gifts to her second and third uncles' homes to express her gratitude. Seeing her eldest cousin and her husband's loving relationship, Xiao Li was also happy for her eldest cousin.
Xiao Li's cultivation has reached the third level of Qi Refining, her minor spells are becoming increasingly proficient, and her lightness skill is outstanding, the best among the children. Because she has spiritual power supporting her, the others naturally cannot compare to her.
Although Mo Yunxiao was the most enthusiastic about martial arts, he was the oldest and the worst at it, unable to even defeat Xiao Jiu'er. On the contrary, Chen Niang had the best martial arts skills, while Xiao Jiu'er was the most talented, her internal energy improving rapidly.
As for Mo Qingshan and Yun Yuniang, they could only exercise their bodies. Although their martial arts skills were not high, they could still handle two or three strong men without any problem.
Xiao Li spent a few more lazy days. With the New Year approaching, she planned to send some food from her space to Xiao Hei, Xiao Hui, and Xiao Ban, and after hunting another batch of prey to bring home, she would stay home for the winter and stop going to the mountains.
As a spirit pet, it is naturally able to sense its master. Before Xiao Li even reached the foot of the mountain, she saw Xiao Ban already waiting there. Xiao Li was terrified. This place is close to the village. What if she runs into someone?
"Little Spotted. You're not allowed to come down the mountain anymore, remember? You can't be seen by anyone, or they'll beat you up and sell you for money." Xiao Li quickly scared Little Spotted, afraid it would frighten people.
"Master, I won't get caught. I'm very powerful. And no one will see me. I remember everything you said." Little Spot was a little arrogant. Recently, it had been eating and drinking well, and it had evolved along with Little Black and Little Gray. Now its intelligence was no less than that of a human.
"It's good that you know. The Vermilion Fruit is ripe. You, Little Black, Little Gray, and Little Round can each have one. Little Spot, are you willing to accept this arrangement?"
"Master can allocate it as you see fit. I have no objections. If it weren't for Master's space, the Vermilion Fruit Tree would have withered away." Xiao Ban squatted down to make it easier for Xiao Li to sit on it.
Now Xiaoli no longer needs Xiaoban's help to ride the tiger. Xiaoban can leap several meters in one bound and disappear in the blink of an eye.
Soon, the person and several beasts met at the foot of the cliff. With a wave of her hand, Xiao Li sent them into the space.
Sitting around under the vermilion fruit tree, Xiao Li picked some fruit, one for each beast. Little Nine didn't care, so it was munching on a basket of strawberries. Strawberries were still the best.
After consuming a few vermilion fruits, all the beasts felt their blood and energy become more vigorous. This was a different feeling from that of the spirit spring water, which cleansed the body of impurities, making it purer and improving its aptitude.
The Vermilion Fruit stimulates blood circulation and expands the meridians. If the beasts possess internal energy, they will understand that their internal energy has increased by more than ten years.
Xiao Li distributed the fruit that Xiao Jiu had picked to Xiao Hei and Xiao Ban, letting them take it back to their nests, and then she went hunting.
Another fruitful day.
As they descended the mountain, Little Spot suddenly stopped and hid behind a bush. "Master, there are people ahead, and I smell blood."
Xiao Li frowned, not wanting to cause trouble, and besides, she didn't know whether he was a good person or a bad person.
"Let's go around it and go down from the side."
Little Spot obediently went around it.
"Whoosh~"
An arrow shot down from the tree; if Xiao Ban hadn't reacted quickly, she would have been hit. Xiao Li dismounted from the tiger's back and stared coldly at the man in black in the tree.
"Whoosh~ Whoosh~" Two more arrows flew, but Xiao Li didn't take them seriously at all. In her opinion, the speed was too slow.
The man in the tree jumped down, his long sword still dripping blood. He twirled his sword and slashed at Xiao Li.
Xiao Li picked up a twig; it was a good practice subject, she couldn't let it go.
At first, Xiao Li simply dodged, but after a few moves, she realized that he was nothing special. She spotted an opening, and with a flick of her branch, she pierced the black-clad man's pressure point, causing him to slowly fall to the ground.
Xiao Li walked behind the tree, and a young man in white appeared before her, his body wounded and covered in blood. He was clearly badly injured.
He stared at Xiaoli with wide eyes but didn't say anything. After swaying a few times, he fainted.
Xiao Li rolled her eyes. What kind of mess was this? She first threw the man in black into her spatial storage, then fed the boy in white some spiritual spring water, applied medicine, and bandaged his wounds using the wound medicine she had found in the wooden house last time.
While bandaging, she touched the jade pendant at the boy's waist, and Xiao Li's little finger felt warm again. Xiao Li touched the pendant; was he trying to absorb it to level up?
She had saved him, so taking the jade pendant shouldn't be a problem, right? Xiao Li decided to keep it, but found she couldn't put it into her spatial storage. How strange.
"Xiao Jiu, come and see what's going on?"
"Master, this is part of the space! Quickly collect it so the space can be upgraded again!" Little Nine discovered it as soon as it came out and jumped around excitedly.
"But I can't put it in, what's wrong?" Xiaoli also wanted to put it in.
"Hey, this boy's blood has dripped on it. It's already recognized its owner. No wonder it can't be put in." Xiao Jiu shook her head regretfully.
"Master, if you kill him, the jade pendant will have no owner." Xiao Jiu thought of another good idea.
"No, I can't do that. I can't bring myself to do it. Besides, the space is already big enough. It doesn't matter if it's a little less. It's enough as long as it's sufficient."
It's such a pity for Xiao Li, but she still can't bring herself to trade a life for space. The man in black tried to kill her just now, and she didn't dare to fight back. She could only put him in her space and see if she could control him.
Xiao Li was curious about what the space in the jade pendant was like, so she attached her divine sense to it. To her surprise, the space trembled and upgraded.
A minute later, Xiao Li entered the space, and it was indeed different. On the other side of the river, a large grassland appeared, covered with grass that looked like good feed for livestock. However, there was a transparent barrier in the middle of the river, like a protective barrier.
Xiao Li was thinking about going there when she actually passed through the barrier and appeared in the middle of the grassland. She touched the grass and thought that wild sheep would definitely like to eat it, so she could feed the sheep in the future.
There was nothing else besides the grassland, so Xiao Li returned, passing through the barrier on her way back.
Could the grassland be the jade pendant's spatial dimension? Xiao Li felt a little guilty; it had already recognized its owner. Strangely, the jade pendant still couldn't be stored in the spatial dimension, and Xiao Jiu didn't know why either.
“It’s possible that you, Master, recognized him with your divine sense, but this boy recognized him with his blood. Now both of you have recognized him.” Xiao Jiu squatted on the ground and studied it, but couldn’t figure it out after a long time.
"I've never heard of a space being able to recognize a master twice..." Xiao Jiu tugged at the leaves, and Xiao Li was worried that the poor three leaves would fall off. Yes, Xiao Jiu's third leaf had grown up, and the fourth leaf was beginning to take shape.
Undeterred, Xiao Li decided to interrogate the man in black. She went to a secluded corner, entered her spatial dimension, and while the man was unconscious, imprinted her divine sense mark into his sea of consciousness. She also had Xiao Jiu place a restriction on him. After leaving the spatial dimension, she stimulated his acupoints, waking him up.
