Jurong County

Taoyuan Cave

Taoyuan Cave is not a place name, but a sect. It is one of the six sects in Jurong County. The leader of the sect is a person on the fourth level of the foundation, and he is also among the top among the six sects.

With the destruction of the Ten Palaces, the entire Northern Wasteland fell into chaos and killings. Mountains of all sizes were lined with trees. The six major sects in Jurong County took advantage of this opportunity to rise, and their strength improved rapidly.

As for those Yuanying sects, after their death in the Yuanying stage, they were all attacked by unknown forces. They died and ran away. Even if there were strong people in the Golden Core stage who survived by chance, they were basically unable to retreat, for fear of being attacked by immortals.

Watch the door.

Although from the beginning to the end, the Immortal Sect only really took action twice, once to destroy the Yiling Sect, and once to destroy millions of monks in the capital of Great Xia.

But no one can be sure that these people who take action secretly are not Xianmen.

But no matter what, before the situation is completely clear, it goes without saying that the Nascent Soul stage is about to go underground, and the Golden Core stage is not much better. If you can't help it, you won't take action.

The most active period in the Northern Wasteland now is the foundation building period, and everyone is taking this opportunity to attack cities and territories, seize resources, and improve their cultivation.

As for whether there are people from the Immortal Sect behind this, secretly adding fuel to the flames, no one knows.

Anyway, the Northern Wilderness is now a big quagmire, an opportunity and a disaster.

"Damn Demon Sect, they just sit back and ignore it! It's a shame that we in Beihuang have given them so many benefits!"

"The Demon Sect is more shameless than the Immortal Sect!"

Two outer disciples from Taoyuan Cave were guarding the door, observing the passers-by, and gossiping there.

At this moment, a seven or eight-year-old girl in yellow clothes with a bun came towards here carrying food.

"This is the eldest lady's residence. No one else is allowed to come near!"

One of the burly disciples reached out to stop the girl in yellow.

The so-called eldest lady is the daughter of the cave master of Taoyuan Cave.

"I'm here to deliver food to the eldest lady!" the girl in yellow said softly.

"What's your name? Why have I never seen you before?"

The burly disciple asked with a frown.

Although the six sects are united on the surface, they have been fighting openly and secretly in private. In order to prevent anyone from doing harm to the eldest lady, he must be careful.

"My name is Wei Ying, I just arrived here not long ago!"

The girl in yellow opened her almond-shaped eyes and looked at the burly disciple without much fear in her eyes.

She doesn't have the aristocratic air of an ordinary child, but exudes the demeanor of a child of a big family. I guess in ordinary times, she was either from a scholarly family or from an aristocratic family.

The burly disciple didn't pay much attention to her temperament. She was great in the world, but she was just a bug in the world of cultivation.

He checked the food and made sure that Wei Ying was not in danger before letting her in.

"What did Lao Wang think when he sent such a small thing to deliver food? Could it be that this little thing offended him?"

Another disciple who looked older held his chin and looked at Wei Ying's back and said.

"Just die! It's none of our business! Now our Taoyuan Cave is very powerful, and many small families are sending people here. If one group dies, another group will be sent!"

The burly disciple dismissed it.

To be honest, their Taoyuan Cave is good enough. Like those sects that refine souls and corpses, the new disciples are almost used as spare materials.

However, the world is in chaos now, and small families and small forces have no way of surviving if they don't join the big sects. Even if they know that they will die if they are sent to them, they can only bite the bullet and send them, otherwise they may be wiped out tomorrow.

On the contrary, those mortals without spiritual roots may be better off.

Wei Ying squeezed the talisman in her palm, held the tray, tensed her nerves, and walked towards the attic in the center.

The peach blossoms in the yard exude a strong floral fragrance, which makes people's spiritual energy in the body ready to move.

These peach trees are all spiritual plants. Although they are not of high grade, they are of extraordinary value if they can be planted in such a courtyard.

At least in Wei Ying's view, this is simply a fairyland.

How great it would be if we could plant such a garden full of peach blossoms at home!

She sighed in her heart and couldn't help but think of her parents again.

Although her life at home was not as good as that of her sect, it was her happiest time. At that time, she seemed to be carefree every day.

"Hold on, my parents said they would come to pick me up when the matter is over!"

Wei Ying got rid of the sad thoughts in her heart, walked to the attic door, and knocked gently on the door.

"I told you not to bother me! Can't you hear me?"

An angry female voice came from the attic.

"Miss, eat some food! Being hungry is not good for your health!"

Wei Ying lowered her head and said respectfully, but her palms were sweating nervously.

"Tell my father to find Brother Qin, otherwise I will never eat a bite!"

"Miss! Master..."

Wei Ying was ready to tell the story she had prepared a long time ago. She wanted to coax the young lady inside to eat, even if it was just one bite. Only when she ate could she get the elixir to save her sister.

But as soon as the words were spoken, a fist-sized water bomb shot out from inside, directly breaking the door, and two of them hit Wei Ying.

Thin layers of light film appeared in front of Wei Ying. She had expected this situation, so she took the talisman given to her by her father with her in advance.

Unfortunately, she didn't know that this talisman was not omnipotent, it was just a rudimentary amulet, and her father's purpose was not to let her use the talisman to fight others.

Before leaving, her father had told her that this talisman had special meaning and she must keep it.

Just for her sister, she had to use it.

The light formed by the amulet lasted only half a breath before it was shattered by water bombs and hit Wei Ying hard.

Peng!

Her petite body flew backwards under the attack of water bombs and fell heavily to the ground. All the food she carried was scattered on the ground.

"Ugh! Ahem!"

Wei Ying forced herself to sit up and felt a sharp pain in her chest and abdomen. The next moment, she vomited out a mouthful of blood.

Fortunately, there were doors and talismans to block her, otherwise she would not have vomited blood, but would have been beaten to death on the spot.

What Wei Ying didn't know was that although she didn't die on the spot, her condition wasn't much better. If she wasn't treated in time, it would be very dangerous.

"what happened?"

The two disciples guarding the door heard the noise and ran over immediately. When they saw the situation in front of them, they immediately realized what was going on.

Sure enough, it is like this again!

The two looked at each other helplessly. Similar situations had happened several times.

"Two senior brothers!"

Wei Ying endured the severe pain and stood up to say hello to the two of them.

"Okay! Okay! Clean up quickly and get out! Don't make the lady angry again!"

The burly disciple scolded her in a low voice, and then instructed her to put away the scattered food.

Although she felt very uncomfortable, Wei Ying could only endure and pack her things before leaving.

As she walked, she felt another pain in her chest. She couldn't help but lower her head and spit out a mouthful of blood.

"It should be fine, right? Yes, it's fine! It must be fine!"

Wei Ying comforted herself.

Although she really wanted to see a doctor from the sect, she had spent all her savings recently to treat her sister, and there was no response to the letters she sent to her parents. She no longer had the spiritual stone to go to the doctor.

If not, she would not have promised Manager Wang to deliver food to the eldest lady.

She thought that the pain and vomiting blood might be temporary and would be gone in two days.

She endured the pain and returned to the courtyard where the handyman disciples lived. She picked out a portion of the scattered food and kept it for her sister to eat later. Then she took the other portion and rushed to Manager Wang's residence.

"Bah! There's something wrong with your little girl! You didn't get the job done and you still want reward?"

Manager Wang raised his leg and kicked Wei Ying again. His old face was as black as the bottom of a pot.

"Ahem! Manager Wang, I have tried my best! Please give me the elixir, will my sister take it..."

Wei Ying's mouth overflowed with blood and she knelt down to beg, but she didn't get any mercy from Manager Wang.

"You asked for it yourself. Not only did you fail to do it, but you also made the eldest lady unhappy. If I didn't punish you, you are already an adult. If you dare to talk nonsense to me again, don't blame me for being rude!"

"Get out! Get out now! Don't let me see your unlucky look again!"

Helpless Wei Ying was pushed and stumbled away.

"Sir, we have passed today, but what about tomorrow? With the temper of the eldest lady, don't expect her to give in until ten days and a half!"

"Then just find someone else to die for!" Manager Wang said disdainfully.
