He took a deep breath, tried to calm himself down, walked to his seat and slowly sat down.

After he sat down, he raised his head and looked at Su Yuer, and said in a heavy tone: "Miss, thank you for listening to me.

To be honest, my surname is Li and my name is Li Yuncheng.

Oh! It's so embarrassing! Back then, I was also a member of the Zhongwu Mercenary Group.

But later, I was beaten by those crazy guys and had no choice but to flee the Zhongwu Mercenary Group."

Li Yuncheng paused, a look of pain on his face, and continued, "Two years ago, my daughter Li Miaoyu was targeted by the group leader's son, Brother Xiong.

That day, I happened to be out on business and not at home, so that bastard took the opportunity to run to my house and did this to my daughter..." Speaking of this, Li Yuncheng's voice suddenly choked...

After a while, the middle-aged man raised his head, his eyes filled with pain, and murmured, "I never expected that when I returned home, I would be greeted by such a horrific scene—the whole house was in shambles!"

When he said this, his voice trembled and tears welled up in his eyes.

"My wife...she was beaten to death by those people in order to protect her daughter from harm!

The poor daughter still couldn't escape harm.

After she woke up from her coma, she couldn't bear the blow and ended her young life by hanging herself...

When the neighbor saw that I had finally returned, he hurried over and told me what had happened.

After hearing my neighbor's story, I felt a surge of rage. I grabbed my weapon and rushed to the camp, vowing to seek justice for my wife and daughter, and to make that bastard pay with blood!

However, reality is often cruel and ruthless.

After a fierce fight, I was outnumbered and fell in a pool of blood with serious injuries.

Fortunately, a close friend of mine arrived in time and rescued him, so he barely managed to save his life."

After saying that, Li Yuncheng shook his head weakly, and he looked much older in an instant.

Su Yu'er gently held her cheek, frowned slightly, and thought thoughtfully for a moment.

Then, she looked at Li Yuncheng and said softly, "Uncle, I have an idea."

Li Yuncheng looked at Su Yuer and quickly responded, "Miss, please speak."

"Since you are a veteran member of the Zhongwu Mercenary Group, you must be well aware of the rules of the game within the mercenary group.

So why not stay here and run the business with us?

I firmly believe that your wife and daughter certainly hope that you can live a good life every day, am I right?" Su Yu'er said gently and patiently.

She knew very well that everyone had their own ideas and wishes, and forcing others to do things was often unsatisfactory and far less effective than making them do it willingly.

Hearing this, Li Yuncheng was stunned. Then, he stared at Su Yu'er with a burning gaze and said seriously, "Miss, do you really trust me so much?"

Su Yu'er smiled, nodded slightly, and responded: "Of course, sometimes a small thing can tell whether a person's character is good or evil.

Among the three of you, you are undoubtedly the most sincere and genuine."

Li Yuncheng was deeply moved and said without hesitation: "Thank you for your kindness and trust, I am willing to stay here!"

Su Yu'er called out softly, "Yang Jian."

"Disciple is here!" Yang Jian quickly stepped forward and responded respectfully.

Su Yuer introduced Li Yuncheng to Yang Jian: "This uncle's name is Li Yuncheng, he is a veteran of the former Zhongwu Mercenary Group.

From now on, he will fight alongside you. If you encounter any confusion in the future, please humbly seek guidance from Uncle Li."

Upon hearing this, Yang Jian quickly clasped his fists and saluted, saying loudly, "Yes, Madam!"

After saying that, Yang Jian and Li Yuncheng sat aside and began to study the next plan of the Shadow Mercenary Group.

At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps coming from far away, and An Si led a group of people into the hall.

Su Yu'er subconsciously raised her eyes and looked.

Just one glance and she was petrified, dumbfounded for a moment.

I saw that the old man walking in front had a head full of snow-white hair, every strand of which stood up, as if he had been hit by a violent storm, or as if he had been wantonly ravaged by countless rough hands, and his hair was in a mess.

Not only that, even his face and clothes were covered with burnt marks, making him look miserable.

"Master Jiang?"

When Xiao Mohan saw the old man, his eyes widened with suspicion. He couldn't help but ask, "Valley Master Jiang, what happened to you? How did you get struck by lightning and become like this?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Buxian glanced at them fiercely, then sat down on the chair.

While rubbing the wound on his body with a grin on his face,

He shouted in frustration, "Don't even mention it! This damned lightning bolt almost killed me! It was so cruel!"

Su Yuer, who was the first to react, could no longer hold back and burst into laughter, "Hahahaha..."

Seeing this, Xiao Moxuan and others were trying hard to hold back their laughter, but they couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Seeing everyone laughing so hard that they were rolling on the floor, Jiang Buxian was immediately so angry that he blew his beard and glared. His face, which was already a little dark, now turned red.

He glared at everyone angrily, muttering with a feeling of grievance, "You guys are going too far! I'm already in such a miserable state, and not only do you not comfort my wounded heart, but you're here gloating and laughing at me!"

Seeing that Jiang Buxian was really angry, Su Yuer quickly stopped laughing and waved her little hand gently. In an instant, a table full of apples appeared in front of her.

She raised the corners of her mouth slightly, revealing a faint smile, and said slowly: "An Yi, distribute the apples to everyone present and let everyone taste them.

You know, eating this apple will quickly replenish the energy your body has consumed."

"Okay!" An Yi responded, and then took action with An Si.

They walked towards the crowd with apples in their hands and handed the apples to each person one by one.

When the apple was passed to Jiang Buxian, he frowned and shouted unhappily, "Huh? What? You only gave me a small apple? That's too perfunctory!"

Hearing this, An Si couldn't help but smile slightly and quickly explained, "Valley Master Jiang, please don't underestimate this apple. It's not an ordinary apple.

But it’s the raw material I use to make apple wine!

Besides, in my Yue Ding Restaurant, this apple wine is a priceless treasure!"

At this time, Li Yuncheng was looking down at the apple in his hand. Suddenly, he seemed to think of something.

He suddenly raised his head, looked at Su Yu'er with a burning gaze, and shouted excitedly: "Girl! Could it be... Could it be that you are the couple who have recently become famous and attracted much attention in Qingyun Country?"

Ruyi's face lit up with pride when she heard this. She held her head high and nodded without hesitation, "Yes, that's right! They are the Palace Master and his wife of our Hanyu Palace! And we are all disciples of Hanyu Palace!"

Li Yuncheng's eyes widened as he asked in disbelief, "Is this the Hanyu Palace where all its members successfully survived the heavenly tribulation?"

Ruyi replied triumphantly, "Yes, it is our Hanyu Palace!"

At this moment, Li Yuncheng could no longer remain calm and was secretly delighted in his heart.

He didn't expect that he was so lucky to accidentally break into the Hanyu Palace. This is really great!

At the same time, Jiang Buxian looked at the apple in his hand and muttered, "Is it really that weird?"

He took the apple and took a bite without hesitation. In an instant, a warm current flowed down his throat into his body, and another stream of air flowed along his eight extraordinary meridians to fill the missing spiritual power in his body.

"This apple... can actually replenish spiritual power?" Jiang Buxian looked at the chipped apple in his hand and said in disbelief.

When everyone heard this, they all picked up the apples and started eating.

In an instant, the entire hall was filled with fluctuations of spiritual energy.

"It's over!" Ye Bing muttered directly.

At this time, Su Yuer also felt that a trace of her soul was floating out of her body along with her consciousness, and it could come back automatically.

At this moment, Xiao Moxuan couldn't help but exclaimed: "Why do I feel like I'm about to undergo a tribulation? This is chaos!"

Su Yu'er was stunned when she heard this: "Who else among you wants to survive the tribulation?"

An Shi, An Yi, and An Si were all confused. They said in unison, "Madam, we felt it too. What's going on?"

Xiao Mohan looked at them and said helplessly, "That's because you ate the apple.

Originally, the only ones who could succeed naturally were Madam and Ye Bing.

"The training you've undergone in the Hidden Mist Forest has already laid a solid foundation. Now, since you've eaten the apple, you've naturally touched the barrier. Let's go out and overcome the tribulation together!"

"What the hell! They have to go through the tribulation to reach the realm of refining emptiness, and now they have to go through it collectively. The Heaven must be furious!" Su Yu'er couldn't help but feel a tingling sensation on her scalp.

Xiao Moxuan and others also trembled all over and their scalps felt numb.

"No matter what, this calamity must be overcome.

Get your weapons ready in a moment so you can resist at the critical moment.

I will set up a defensive formation for you.

"Let's go! If we don't leave now, the thunder will destroy the Shadow Mercenary Group's camp." Xiao Mohan urged anxiously.

At the same time, everyone in the hall was shocked. They actually had to go through the tribulation of the Void Refinement Realm.

At this time, Su Yu'er took out the immortal pills from the space and distributed them directly, saying jokingly: "One immortal pill per person. Remember, eat it before you die!"

When Xiao Moxuan and others heard this, their faces immediately turned black.

Even at this time, they still want to bully them.

Afterwards, Su Yu'er took out several defensive magic weapons from the space and said seriously, "These are all immortal magic weapons. Don't be reluctant to use them. Remember! You must use them when you can't bear it anymore. Staying alive is the kingly way!"

Xiao Moxuan and the others suddenly smiled as brightly as blooming chrysanthemums.
