Farmer Girl Reborn: I Play the Pig and Eat the Tiger in the World of Immortal Cultivation

After the sable cub swallowed the pill, a faint purple halo enveloped its body, its fine fur gleaming as if coated in starlight. Its tiny body trembled slightly, a surge of spiritual energy coursing through it, and its once dim eyes brightened like two gleaming purple gems.

Yan Yue could clearly feel the sable cub's growing strength, and a wave of relief welled up in her heart. She gently stroked the sable's soft fur and said softly, "Little one, it seems these purple heart grass and condensed dew flower are very useful to you."

The sable cub seemed to understand Yan Yue's words. It opened its eyes and nuzzled the palm of Yan Yue's hand with its wet little nose, making a subtle "squeak" sound, as if to be coquettish. Its eyes, once somewhat timid, were now filled with dependence and trust in Yan Yue. This intimate gesture warmed Yan Yue's heart. She gently picked up the sable and placed it in her palm, feeling the warmth of its small body.

Nong Jin, standing by, watched the intimate interaction between the man and the mink, a gentle smile playing on his lips. He stretched out his finger and gently scratched the mink's chin. The mink squinted its eyes in comfort and purred contentedly.

However, at this tender moment, Yan Yue keenly sensed a subtle shift in the air around them. A venomous aura, like a venomous snake lurking in the shadows, was silently approaching them. Her expression froze, and she calmly held the sable in her arms, whispering to Nong Jin, "Be careful, someone's coming."

Upon hearing this, Nong Jin's smile faded, his eyes instantly becoming fierce. He released his divine sense, carefully exploring the surroundings. Sure enough, several powerful auras were lurking around the inn, each carrying a hint of greed and malice.

"It seems someone is targeting our little sable." Nong Jin's voice was low and chilling. The sable cub seemed to sense the danger as well. It snuggled tightly in Yan Yue's arms, shivering.

Yan Yue gently patted the sable's back, soothing it. Meanwhile, she was rapidly formulating a strategy. These people spying secretly were all quite powerful, and their intentions were ill-intentioned. They were drawn in by the spiritual energy emanating from the sable cub, clearly intent on seizing this spiritual pet with limitless potential.

Just then, a noisy sound of footsteps could be heard outside the inn, and several figures quickly approached. Yan Yue and Nong Jin exchanged a glance, a hint of determination flashing in their eyes.

"It seems that a fierce battle is inevitable." Nong Jin clenched the sword in his hand, and a powerful aura burst out from him, like a lion about to wake up.

Yan Yue also secretly circulated her spiritual power, concealing her aura even more deeply. A cold arc appeared on the corner of her mouth, and she thought to herself: "If you want to steal my sable, then I'll see if you have the ability to do it!"

Suddenly, a gust of wind whistled past, and the door of the inn was violently thrown open. Several men in black rushed in with sharp blades in hand. The leading man stared at the sable in Yan Yue's arms with a sinister look and said in a grim tone, "Hand over that sable!"

Yan Yue sneered, casting a disdainful glance at the intruders in black, unfazed. "You few, are you worthy?" Her voice was quiet, yet filled with undeniable authority, as if she were a queen looking down upon the ants before her.

The sable cub shrank in Yan Yue's arms, but it did not make any sound. It just snuggled up to Yan Yue tightly, as if drawing strength and courage from her.

Nong Jin stood beside Yan Yue, his tall figure like a towering mountain, shielding her from the oppressive pressure from the men in black. He held Yan Yue's hand tightly, his eyes filled with affection and determination, as if telling her that no matter what happened, he would protect her and the sable cub. This silent promise brought a warm feeling to Yan Yue's heart.

"If you don't accept my toast, you will be punished!" The leading man in black roared, swung the long sword in his hand, and a sharp sword energy came straight at Yan Yue.

Yan Yue narrowed her eyes slightly, shifted her steps slightly, and her figure flashed like a ghost, easily dodging the sword attack. She did not rush to attack, but secretly observed the strength of these men in black, looking for their weaknesses.

Seeing this, the other men in black also drew their weapons and attacked Yan Yue and Nong Jin. The flashes of swords and sabers intertwined into a dense attack net, enveloping Yan Yue and Nong Jin.

Nong Jin snorted coldly, unsheathing his sword. The sword flashed like a rainbow, instantly neutralizing several attacks. He was agile and moved among the men in black. Every time he struck out with his sword, it was filled with murderous intent, forcing the men in black to retreat repeatedly.

Yan Yue remained calm. She was not in a hurry to reveal her true strength. Instead, she used the sable cubs as bait and gradually led these men in black into her trap.

She deliberately revealed some flaws to lure the men in black closer, and then when they were about to succeed, she suddenly burst out with a powerful spiritual power to repel them.

Although the black-clad men were numerous, their strength varied greatly. Under the combined attack of Yan Yue and Nong Jin, they quickly fell into a disadvantage. They then realized that they had underestimated the strength of Yan Yue and Nong Jin, and they couldn't help but feel a little regretful.

The leading man in black had a gloomy expression on his face. He realized that he couldn't delay any longer and had to fight quickly. He secretly gave the other men in black a look, signaling them to use a combined attack.

The men in black immediately understood what he meant. They cooperated tacitly, surrounded Yan Yue and Nong Jin, and then released their respective special moves at the same time.

For a moment, the spiritual energy in the inn surged, the light of various spells shone brightly, and the scene was in chaos.

Yan Yue and Nong Jin stood back to back, resisting attacks from all directions. Although they were powerful, they also felt a little tired in the face of such a dense attack.

At this moment, a sinister laugh came from outside the inn: "It seems that I have arrived at the right time."

Following the sound of laughter, a middle-aged man in a black robe with a sinister face slowly walked into the inn. He exuded a powerful aura of oppression that made everyone present feel suffocated.

"Late stage of foundation building!" Yan Yue's heart sank. She felt that the strength of the person who came was far beyond that of the man in black before. It seemed that the real opponent had finally appeared.

The black-robed man stared greedily at the sable in Yan Yue's arms and said sinisterly, "Little girl, if you know what's good for you, hand over that sable and I'll spare your life."

Yan Yue sneered and met his gaze fearlessly: "If you want my sable, it depends on whether you have the ability!" As soon as she finished speaking, she stuffed the sable cub into Nong Jin's arms, "Protect it!"

Nong Jin nodded solemnly and protected the sable cub behind him.

Seeing this, a cold light flashed in the eyes of the man in black robe. He snorted coldly and slowly raised his right hand. A powerful spiritual power condensed in his palm, forming a huge black energy ball.

"Go to hell!" He roared and smashed the energy ball in his hand towards Yan Yue and Nong Jin... The air was filled with a strong murderous aura.

The black energy ball roared towards her, carrying destructive force, seemingly consuming everything. Yan Yue took a deep breath, the spiritual energy within her dantian circulated furiously, and a faint golden glow enveloped her. She chose not to confront it head-on. Instead, she dodged, darting through the gaps in the energy ball like a nimble swallow, avoiding the fatal blow.

Nong Jin held a long sword, the blade flashing fiercely, neutralizing the attacks directed at him and the sable one by one. The sable cub trembled in his arms, its large, watery eyes filled with fear.

The black-robed man saw his attack land, and a flicker of surprise flashed in his eyes. He hadn't expected this seemingly fragile woman to possess such agility. He snorted coldly, gathering his spiritual energy once more, preparing to launch a more fierce attack.

At this moment, several men in black emerged from the shadows, wielding sharp blades, and attacked Yan Yue and Nong Jin. Although these men in black were not as strong as the man in black robes, they had the advantage of being outnumbered. For a moment, Yan Yue and Nong Jin were caught in a tough fight.

Yan Yue dodged the attacks of the men in black while secretly observing the surrounding situation. She found that these men in black seemed to be just probing attacks, and the real threat was still in the dark.

"Little Sable, it's our turn to perform!" Yan Yue whispered to the sable in his arms.

The sable cub seemed to understand Yan Yue's words. It poked its head out of Nong Jin's arms, a sly glint in its dark eyes. It opened its mouth and let out a sharp cry, as piercing as a sword, causing the surrounding men in black to cover their ears.

Immediately afterwards, a strange energy wave emanated from the sable cub. This energy wave quickly spread out, forming an invisible barrier that protected Yan Yue and Nong Jin.

The black-clad men's attacks landed on the barrier like a drop in the ocean, without causing a single ripple. They were horrified to discover that their attacks had no effect on Yan Yue and Nong Jin!

The black-robed man also noticed the sable cub's strangeness, and a greedy glint flashed in his eyes. He knew that this sable cub was definitely not an ordinary spiritual pet, and it was hiding a huge secret!

He no longer hesitated, and in a flash, he pounced on the sable cub. He had to get this sable!

Just as the black-robed man was about to approach the sable cub, the sable cub suddenly burst out with a powerful force. This force was like a volcanic eruption, and instantly knocked the black-robed man away.

The black-robed man fell heavily to the ground, spitting blood from his mouth. He stared at the sable cub in disbelief, his eyes filled with shock and fear. He could never have imagined that this seemingly weak spirit pet could possess such terrifying power!

The men in black around were also stunned by this sudden change. They stood there in a daze, not daring to act rashly.

The light on the sable cub gradually dissipated. It seemed to have exhausted all its strength. It lay limply in Nong Jin's arms and closed its eyes.

Yan Yue looked at the comatose sable cub, her heart filled with worry. She didn't know if the sable cub could burst out with such power again, nor did she know how they would face a stronger enemy next.

The black-robed man slowly climbed to his feet. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, a sinister glint in his eyes. He hadn't given up on the sable cub, but was secretly reorganizing his strategy.

Yan Yue felt a chill coming from behind. She turned around suddenly, but only saw a dark shadow flash by... "They will come again." Nong Jin's voice was low and firm.
