I was thrown away at the beginning, and I will build a grave for you after I come back to life.

The next day, just after dawn.

"Bai Yu, choose two first-level perfect bloodthirsty bees to eat these two Lingwu fruits. From now on, they will lead a part of the bee colony to protect Lingwu Village for you."

Lin Molin handed the two Lingwu fruits, after removing the impurities, to Bai Yu's hand.

Bai Yu held the fruit, feeling mixed emotions.

Initially, she only intended to reassure the young lady, sign a contract with her, and help protect her secrets. However, she did not expect the young lady to be so generous and directly gave her two Spirit Mist Fruits.

Each of these two Lingwu Fruits is equivalent to about 100 years of cultivation for a spiritual beast, not to mention that it is in the King's Continent where spiritual energy is scarce.

The effect of the Lingwu Fruit is doubled after the impurities are removed. Even Jindan cultivators will fight for it until their heads are broken and their blood is shed.

"Miss, I..."

Bai Yu wanted to say something but stopped herself, she didn't know how to thank him.

"Okay, take it and give it to them. It's getting late, we should leave."

"Ok!"

Bai Yu's wrinkled little face relaxed and she nodded heavily. She would definitely protect the young lady and repay her kindness in the future!

Bai Yu selected two of the strongest ones from among the many first-level perfect blood-sucking bees to feed them the Lingwu Fruit. The light of promotion flashed twice, and three lines appeared on their legs, successfully promoting them to third-level spiritual beasts, blood-sucking bees.

The third-level spiritual beasts have already developed their intelligence. There is absolutely no problem in letting them stay to protect the hidden village. They are invincible below the Jindan level!

Two blood-sucking bees came forward and rubbed Lin Molin's hand to express their gratitude, then took a thousand blood-sucking bees and went back to the back mountain.

Lin Molin placed the remaining 1,500 blood-sucking bees, along with Ponyo Persia and the golden snake, into the space. Bai Yu wrapped the Star Bow with a strip of cloth and draped it over her body. Lin Molin strapped the black cloth bag containing the arrows onto his back, opened the door, and prepared to depart for Bronze City.

Li Dashan had been waiting outside the door for a long time. When he saw Mo Lin coming out, he couldn't help but step forward and shouted happily: "Sister Lin, the ox cart is ready. I'll take you to Bronze City!"

Lin Molin smiled and nodded, then got on the ox cart with Bai Yu.

The village head's mother-in-law hobbled to the village entrance with a cane and led the villagers to say goodbye to Lin Molin.

"Molin, take care on your journey!"

Lin Molin looked at the village headwoman and the villagers with deep emotion. The scene before her reminded her of the villagers of Good Luck Village in her previous life. Her eyes reddened. Perhaps these mortals were a memory from her past life. She wanted to protect them and ensure they lived safely throughout this life.

"Mother-in-law, don't worry, I will take good care of myself."

The oxcart slowly started to move, and Lin Molin kept waving goodbye to the villagers. As the oxcart moved further and further away, the figures of the villagers gradually blurred in his sight.

"Sister Lin, will you come back in the future?"

Twelve-year-old Li Dashan's eyes were filled with reluctance. A hundred years passed in the blink of an eye. He didn't know when he would see Sister Lin again, and he didn't know if she was still alive...

"I don't know, I think we'll meet again if we're destined to."

Mo Lin couldn't bear to see Li Dashan's lost expression, but he also didn't want to give him false hope.

We will meet again if we are destined to. Some things are destined by cause and effect.

"Yes! Regardless of whether Sister Lin will come back or not, the descendants of the Hidden Village will definitely wait for you, just like we are waiting for the Fairy Princess!"

Li Dashan was relieved instantly. He couldn't wait any longer. But he still had children and grandchildren. There would always be a generation that could wait for the return of Fairy Ji and Sister Lin!

An hour later, they arrived at the Bronze City that Lin Molin was familiar with.

Mo Lin covered his face with a scarf, took the white jade, and handed over the spiritual sand to enter the city. Finally, he turned around to look at the 12-year-old boy who was still standing at the city gate, waved, and entered the Bronze City.

Li Dashan waved his hand until Lin Molin could no longer be seen, then he reluctantly got on the spirit ox cart, waved the whip, and returned to the hidden village.

Lin Molin entered the city and found that the streets were sparsely populated.

When most people found that there was no business, they simply packed up their stalls and closed their shops and ran straight to the south of the city.

Lin Molin also followed everyone to the south of the city.

Looking at the south of the city from afar, the three layers inside and outside were filled with monks watching the family competition.

Sitting on the high platform were the four elders of Platinum City and the Lord of Bronze City, Xiu Batian, whom I met yesterday. They were at the peak of Foundation Establishment and were recognized as the strongest in Bronze City.

Sitting below the Bronze City Lord was his son, the Young City Lord Xiu Yuhan. He was at the first level of Foundation Establishment, had a single golden spiritual root, was a promising cultivator, and was a recognized genius in Bronze City. He was gentle, elegant, fair-skinned, and polite, and was the dream lover in the eyes of many aristocratic girls in Bronze City.

Whenever he goes out, all kinds of ladies from aristocratic families will throw themselves into his arms through various "chance encounters". However, he has a useless fiancée who cannot practice cultivation, and he regards her as a disgrace.

Therefore, Zhang Yunxi was often verbally abused by the women of Bronze City. Although no one knew what Zhang Yunxi looked like when she was an adult, it did not affect her becoming the public enemy of the women of Bronze City. You may not have seen her in person, but you have heard her voice first!

The heads of other major families sat at the lower positions according to their strength. The Zhang family was the weakest, so it was easy to find them.

The person sitting at the very end of the seat was Zhang Cheng, the patriarch of the Zhang family—a mid-stage foundation building warrior with average looks. The beautiful woman sitting next to him was his wife, Chen Yanxi.

The names of his two daughters are a combination of his wife's name.

The legitimate daughter Zhang Yunyan is now at the seventh level of Qi Refining and has both water and soil spiritual roots.

The second legitimate daughter, Zhang Yunxi, has a talent for cultivating immortal qualities, but is a useless member of the five spiritual roots.

The treatment of the two women is like heaven and hell, completely incomparable, and not even on the same track.

Although it was a family competition today, it couldn't stop Xiu Yuhan and Zhang Yunyan from exchanging glances. One was tender and affectionate, while the other was doting.

Lin Molin, who was standing next to them, really wanted to wash his eyes and couldn't help but complain in his heart: As soon as I saw them, I felt - disgusted, disgusted, extremely disgusted, quite disgusting, disgusted to the point of being deformed, disgusted to the point of doubting my life.

While Lin Molin was still feeling disgusted, the referee on the ring began to prepare for the draw.

How could Lin Molin participate in such a draw? Of course, he would just challenge the champion and win in the end, without having to go to the ring again and again.

Some people need to stand on a high place so that they can fall more painfully!

So just take Baiyu and watch the show from the sidelines!

After the drawing of lots, the competition officially began. City Master Xiu stepped onto the podium and began his passionate speech.

"Thank you all for participating in the Bronze City Clan Competition. Anyone 16 years of age or younger is welcome to demonstrate their abilities in this competition. This competition is not only about determining the winner, but also about tapping into the potential of each young talent and adding new strength to the future of Bronze City. Competition will end when the time is right. Only the winners of the male and female competitions will be eligible to join the clan. I hope you all give it your all and perform brilliantly!"

As soon as City Lord Xiu finished speaking, warm applause broke out from the audience.
