A few people walked forward, and when they passed the bottom of a cliff, they saw from afar a man in tattered clothes sitting there motionless, and there was someone lying on the ground next to him?

Huo Ling'er was afraid that others would see Xiao Xiao and Mo Zhu, so as to avoid trouble in the future.

They quickly put them into the space. Jingjing and the other two were not afraid of being recognized by others, unless the realm was higher than any of them.

A few people walked closer and saw the situation of several people. They wanted to turn around and take a detour, but at this time they smelled a strong smell of blood in the air?

Huo Linger's heart was moved. Was this murder or revenge? No! I can't cause trouble. There are too many people in this secret realm. Who knows where this person is from?

He reached out, grabbed the person next to him, turned around and left.

The person sitting on the ground may have heard the noise. He looked up and saw someone finally passing by. He hurriedly called out, "Daoist friend, did you come from the mountain in front? Why don't you seem to be injured? Didn't you encounter that big dragon?"

"I'm sorry, we went in different directions. We didn't see any big dragons, and we didn't encounter anything..."

"No, it's the direction you came from."

Did he encounter Jingjing? Tiger Xiao has already transformed, could it have happened not long ago? Jingjing would not hurt anyone easily, what happened?

Huo Ling'er felt a little sympathetic, but also a little confused: "Then you are really miserable. Did you fight with that dragon?"

It would have been better if she didn't ask. After hearing Huo Ling'er's question, the corners of the man's mouth couldn't help but tremble. He smiled bitterly before speaking.

"We are all mercenaries. This time we accepted a mission to come to the secret realm to pick a spiritual medicine for the client. After entering the secret realm, we walked along the mountain range towards this side.

We found some magical herbs on the mountain ahead and dug them up. Somehow he was so lucky to see a magical herb, and we were happy for him.

Unexpectedly, the magical herb was guarded by a lion-tiger beast. After he dug it, the lion-tiger beast chased us for a long distance. We used up all the magic weapons on our bodies and finally escaped from its pursuit. When we passed the valley ahead, we encountered a big dragon again. The two of them were the most seriously injured by the beast! After running for their lives, they were just gasping for breath.

Fortunately, the dragon didn’t chase us far, maybe it just wanted to scare us.

Otherwise, we would have died. But we weren't running fast, so why didn't the dragon chase us?"

Huo Linger could imagine the dangerous scene when she heard what he said. At the same time, she felt that this man was really honest, saying so much to a stranger. Could it be that they met Jingjing and the others?

Huo Ling'er secretly glanced at Jingjing and Hu Xiao, and saw that Jingjing was covering her mouth, so she must be laughing.

Huo Ling'er turned her head, suppressed her doubts and listened to the man quietly.

"In fact, after we escaped here, the beast seemed to be afraid of this place and stopped chasing us. Is it because there are more powerful spirit beasts nearby that dare not come over?"

"Maybe. We don't know about this if we haven't encountered it. Thank you for telling us these things. We won't disturb you while you are recovering. We will leave first."

"Fellow Daoist, can you help us? Although we are mercenaries, we are all independent cultivators without family backgrounds, and we don't have many elixirs on us. If they don't use elixirs for treatment, they may lose their lives. If you can save them, I will exchange them with spiritual herbs, and I will give all these to you."

As he said this, he took out a few spiritual herbs from his storage bag and handed them to Huo Ling'er.

"You guys have a good relationship? Why did you save them?"

“Little girl, we have been through thick and thin together for so many years.

Like me, they were abandoned by their families and suffered the same fate..."

"Yes, what Ashan said is also what I really think. Although Awu didn't say anything, he also wanted to say this. Please help us. I will give you all my spiritual herbs. Please help us."

Huo Ling'er did not respond directly, nor did she reject them.

"Ling'er, do you want Jingjing to help you check on them? That is..."

"Jingjing, not for now. What kind of people they are is none of our business. Let's just help them for now. After this is over, we can go somewhere else to gain experience."

After Huo Ling'er finished speaking, she took out the elixir and handed it to the people who were speaking, asking them to divide it among themselves. She would only take one elixir from each person.

"Girl, my name is Ashan, his name is Awu, and the other one who is seriously injured is called Ayuan and Ashui. These are the names we gave ourselves. We don't have any other surnames, and we don't want to use the name that abandoned us before..."

Huo Ling'er listened to Ashan telling their story without saying anything.

Everyone has sad past and his own secrets. Maybe what he said is not necessarily true, but it does not matter to me. He is not a very familiar person, so what is the point of saying more if I don’t understand him?

In less than an hour, the other two woke up. Ashan told them that they had all been rescued.

The two were so happy that they knelt down and kowtowed to thank Huo Ling'er and the others.

"Miss, can Ashan follow you from now on? Ashan wants to repay you for saving his life and will never betray you. Ashan will work very hard..."

"Ling'er, he is really honest. You told him that it's just a small matter, but he still insists on it. You have us, they are so weak..."

Huo Linger asked Ah Shan who was swearing, "Have you really made up your mind? You won't regret it in the future!"

"Well, a gentleman should keep his word. Never go back on his word!"

"I understand! But I didn't take it seriously, even though I helped you. I just thought of it as a good deed, so you don't have to mind it. Take care! Take good care of yourself here. The spiritual energy in this secret realm is pretty good. It's better to seize the opportunity to practice here for a while than anything else!

We have things to do, so we won't accompany you any longer. I'll give you these bottles of healing medicine and elixir, keep them well, bye! Everyone."

After Huo Ling'er finished speaking, she pulled Jingjing and Xun and left quickly, leaving them no chance at all!

At this time, Xun said, "Ling'er, let Xun help you to find treasures? This way we can find more treasures for Ling'er, and Ling'er won't have to work so hard."

"Axun, no need. Ling'er still wants to find it by herself, which is also a kind of practice. No matter what happens on the road, Ling'er really can't solve it.

And when it comes to life and death, you will help me, or you will find a spirit beast that is much stronger than Ling'er. This is what we agreed with you before, right?"

"Well, then it doesn't count if Axun meets Ling'er. Axun wants to help Ling'er, but Ling'er doesn't need it, alas..."

"Ah Xun, Jing Jing, Ah Xiao, why don't you all go and gain experience on your own? It's not good for you all to follow Ling Er. Ling Er will always rely on you for anything..."

"No, Ling'er. Axun just wants to stay by your side. I've already missed protecting you before, and now I don't want Ling'er to get hurt again!"

"Haha, but Xun. Everyone needs to grow up. If everything depends on you, how can Ling'er grow up? When will she be able to reach the expected level?"

"I don't care. I won't leave you anyway! Let Jingjing and the others go and gain experience. Xun doesn't have any big ideals. I just want to stay by your side."

“Okay, Ling’er won’t say anything more.

Jingjing, Xiao, the two of you go ahead. Maybe there will be a chance for you in the secret realm..."

"Okay, Ling'er. Jingjing and Huxiao will go for a walk. Xun, you have to protect Ling'er, okay? Be safe."

"I know, let's go."

The two of them left the place in a flash. Huo Ling'er smiled and looked at Xun and said, "Xun, have you really thought it through? Don't regret it later."

"Ling'er, Axun won't do that."

"Okay, let's keep going."

The two had just walked a short distance when Huo Ling'er heard Mo Zhu's voice in her mind, sounding very anxious.

"Master, where is Spider? Spider also wants to help."

"Zhuzhu, when the time comes for you, the master will let you out. You are so big, you stand out too much!"

"Master, no. It seems that Spider has become smaller before. Master, don't you remember? Master, let Spider out, and Spider will change again for you to see."

"All right"

With a thought, the big spider appeared on the ground outside. In the blink of an eye, it really turned into a very small one!

Huo Ling'er grabbed it and held it in her palm. It was slightly larger than a bean.

Then he asked doubtfully: "Zhu Zhu, what level of spirit beast are you?"

"Master, Zhuzhu will soon reach the ninth level. She will be able to transform very soon. I wonder when Zhuzhu will be able to do so?"

"Ah? That spider is a sacred beast?"

"Master, you really don't know?"

Mo Zhu looked at his master with suspicion. How could it be possible? His master was so powerful and so smart, how could he not understand these things?

Huo Ling'er was very embarrassed. She had not asked Mo Zhu about the previous contract, and she obviously understood these things. Why had she forgotten them now?

Huo Linger thought as she walked. After entering the secret realm, she was so focused on training and consolidating her cultivation that she forgot about everything else. Was she being a little too much?
