The kid was clearly running toward them. A few seconds later, another person appeared within Xu Mu's perception range; it was a member of the Guanxiong Tribe.
Judging from this pursuit pattern, it was obvious that the Guanxiong Tribe member was hunting down the child.
"Help! Help me!"
The little boy was holding a wooden box, tears streaming down his face.
Chen Xuan, Jiang Huihui, and the others were still looking for an exit here. Hearing someone's cry for help, they immediately turned around to find the source of the sound.
The next moment, a child rolled down from a distant hillside.
He was wearing denim overalls and had short hair parted to the side. Clutching a dark red wooden box, he finally rolled to a stop right in front of Xu Mu.
Seeing Xu Mu in front of him, the child immediately hugged his leg and pleaded for help with big, teary eyes. "Big brother, save me!"
As soon as he spoke, the Guanxiong tribesman in the distance appeared.
Xu Mu threw out a Phantom Sword, instantly knocking the Guanxiong tribesman away and out of everyone's sight.
Seeing this, the child shed tears of gratitude. "Big brother! You are so fierce! Thank you! Thank you!"
"Little brother, what happened to you? Why are you here all alone?"
Xu Mu helped the child up.
"Little brother..."
Hearing this, Tian Xi let out a breath and then said, "I got separated from my grandpa."
Hearing this, Xu Mu still used his Eye of God to check the other party's identity. In a place like this, it was better to be extra careful.
Name: Tian Xi
Character: Student of Tianzhuang Elementary School, female lead of The Strongest Son-in-Law.
Favorability: 3
Destiny Level: 7 (Max level 10)
Holy crap!
Xu Mu was a bit dumbfounded seeing this. This Fang Chu was really something else.
He wouldn't even spare an elementary school student.
No, that wasn't the main point. The main point was the female lead.
Could this kid in front of him be a girl?
Looking closely, he noticed that the face was indeed somewhat feminine, but she had short hair and was wearing overalls and sneakers.
It was indeed easy to mistake her gender.
It was just a pity that, as the female lead, she would never get to meet Fang Chu in her life.
However, this system introduction really made Xu Mu laugh; even an elementary school student was worth being listed in the character profiles.
Xu Mu then checked this person's filial piety value toward him and found it was 1.
Then there was no problem.
This person could be helped.
Without him, she probably wouldn't survive long in a place like this.
Xu Mu looked at Tian Xi and asked, "Where did you and your grandpa get separated?"
"Right inside this formation. I don't know where he went now,"
Tian Xi said with her head down, hugging the wooden box in front of her.
"We can't just wait here forever for your grandpa to find you. How about you follow us?"
Xu Mu asked with a smile.
"Okay!"
Tian Xi looked up at Xu Mu's smile. She didn't know why, but she felt this person was very kind and probably wouldn't harm her.
"Big brother is biased!"
Shi Fumeng walked over, puffing out her cheeks. "We were all saved by you, so why is your attitude so much better toward this child?"
"Look at the scrapes on her hands and cheeks, and then look at your smooth skin. I don't need to say more, do I?"
Xu Mu glanced at Shi Fumeng and continued pretending to search for the formation here.
Feeling that it was about time, he walked toward the bluestone over there. "Found it!"
The few people around all gathered over.
"If nothing unexpected happens, this is the exit of the formation. Let's go."
Xu Mu pressed his hand on the stone.
"Big brother, can I leave a mark here? If my grandpa finds this place, I want him to know where I went."
Tian Xi looked up at Xu Mu and asked.
"Sure."
Xu Mu nodded. The more people who went in, the more advantageous it would be for him.
Tian Xi immediately opened the wooden box. Inside were two sword blades, but they had no hilts.
At the end of the blades, there was a threaded cylinder, like the threads on a screw.
She took out one of them and carved the character for Tian on the surrounding large trees.
Afterward, she put the blade back into the wooden box and locked it.
"Let's go."
Xu Mu pressed his hand on it. After activating the formation, the group all left the area.
...
Meanwhile.
Wu Tian and Lei Ao were walking together toward the depths of the ruins.
"Brother Wu Tian, I really must thank you and your master. If I could activate the formation here, those cleaners from earlier definitely wouldn't have been able to escape."
Lei Ao said with a smile, "Please follow me, the divine medicine is in the cave ahead."
Wu Tian followed beside Lei Ao. "Senior is too polite. You are a friend of my master, so naturally, you are also my elder. What is this little matter?"
"Hahaha! Good! Once I get the divine medicine here, I will lead my tribesmen away. If you encounter any trouble in the future, just come to me!"
Lei Ao threw his head back and laughed loudly.
"He really does plan to keep the divine medicine all to himself. This is normal, though. For a treasure of this level, he discovered it first, so naturally, there's no need to share it with anyone else."
Li Poshan's voice transmitted into Wu Tian's ears.
Entering the lowest level of the cave, Wu Tian finally saw the divine medicine growing there.
It was a small tree, only a little over a meter tall.
There were no leaves on the tree, only withered branches, and a golden fruit the size of a ping-pong ball hanging from it.
Wu Tian looked at the bedroll on the ground nearby and asked with a smile, "Senior usually lives here?"
"That's right. It's been so many years. The closer it gets to maturity, the more afraid I am that someone will snatch it away, so I simply live here."
Lei Ao said with a smile.
Wu Tian looked at the fruit and was about to walk over, but was stopped by Lei Ao.
"Hehe! Brother Wu Tian, don't get too close. Don't blame your older brother for being stingy. It's been so many years; even my own younger brother isn't allowed near here."
Speaking of this, Lei Ao was afraid of offending Li Poshan, considering the formation here still needed him to maintain it. "It's just a pity that Mr. Li cannot consume it, otherwise, I would definitely give it to Mr. Li to repay his kindness."
"Senior truly values friendship and loyalty."
Wu Tian said with a fake smile.
"This kid has quite high emotional intelligence. If I were actually alive, he wouldn't be saying this."
Li Poshan observed carefully. "There is still a small silver spot on the fruit. It should mature in just a day or two."
Right at this moment, a tremor suddenly came from the distance.
Lei Ao's expression changed. "Impossible! Could someone have broken the formation?"
Wu Tian was also a bit surprised. "My master said that it's a top-tier level-eight formation. How could it be broken so easily?"
"Let's go! We'll go take a look!"
Lei Ao said to Wu Tian.
Wu Tian nodded gently and walked outside.
Lei Ao followed closely behind. After leaving the cave, he said to a middle-aged man with a scar, "Second Boss, guard this place well!"
"Don't worry, big brother."
The scarred man nodded heavily.
Lei Ao and Wu Tian quickly rushed to the distant hilltop and finally spotted the people who had intruded.
It was exactly Xu Mu and the others.
However, Lei Ao's eyes were fixed on Shi Fumeng. "Fuck! What's going on? Why is Shi Fumeng on their side?"
m back to his original world. In the end, he realized he had overthought things. [Hey, why is Shen Manni, the female lead, acting strange? Shouldn't she be fawning over the male lead at this point?] [Zhou Qiaoqiao, are you sick? Weren't you supposed to break off your engagement today?] [Damn it! An Youyi, please do your job as an undercover agent and sell my information to the protagonist, you idiot!] ... At this moment, Xu Mo himself didn't know that these female leads had already heard his inner thoughts. Then they decided not to play by the rules. Xu Mo: Please respect my profession as the big villain!

e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.
