Two years passed like a flash, and in the blink of an eye, Qiao Wanwan had transformed from an ignorant little girl into a graceful young lady.

In the past two years, she has cultivated the Lingyou Heart Technique and Lingxi Sword Technique to the highest level, and exchanged "Lingyu Piaozong" in the system mall and cultivated it to the fifth level.

On this day, Qiao Wanwan was practicing sword in the bamboo forest in the back mountain.

Her figure is as light as a butterfly, and the sword light is as gentle as flowing water, yet it contains infinite power.

Suddenly, a strange noise interrupted her practice. Qiao Wanwan looked warily in the direction of the sound, only to see a young man stumbling out from the bushes and then falling to the ground.

The boy's clothes were torn and he was covered in blood, clearly seriously injured. Qiao Wanwan hesitated for a moment, then quickly walked over. She squatted down and carefully examined the boy's injuries.

"Are you okay?" Qiao Wanwan asked softly, "Can you hear me?"

The young man struggled to open his eyes, his gaze filled with alarm and pain. He tried to say something, but all he could do was cough up a mouthful of blood.

Qiao Wanwan was shocked. The boy's injuries were more serious than she had imagined.

"Don't be afraid, I'll help you." Qiao Wanwan said softly, taking out a bottle of medicine powder from her arms.

This is the golden medicine she carries with her on a daily basis. Although its effect is not as good as the pills in the system mall, it is still very effective for common external injuries.

She carefully lifted the boy's clothes, revealing the hideous wound underneath. Qiao Wanwan gasped. The wound was so deep that the bone was visible. It was obviously caused by a sharp weapon.

The young man couldn't help but groan, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. Qiao Wanwan's heart softened, and she whispered to him, "Bear with it, it will be fine soon."

She expertly cleaned the wound, sprinkled it with medicine powder, and then bandaged it with a piece of cloth she carried with her. Throughout the process, the boy clenched his teeth tightly, not uttering a single groan, but with a look of pain in his eyes.

"Okay," Qiao Wanwan patted the boy's shoulder, "How do you feel now?"

The young man sat up with difficulty and looked at Qiao Wanwan gratefully. "Thank you for saving me, young lady. My name is Li Xiangyi. What's your name, young lady?"

Qiao Wanwan was shocked. She didn't expect that the young man in front of her was Li Xiangyi, the target of her mission.

Forced to calm down, Qiao Wanwan continued to treat Li Xiangyi's wounds while looking at him calmly. Li Xiangyi seemed unaware of her identity and just looked at her with gratitude.

"Thank you, young lady." Li Xiangyi said weakly, "If it weren't for you, I'm afraid..."

Qiao Wanwan shook her head and interrupted him: "Don't talk about this. The most important thing now is to stabilize your injuries." She looked around and continued: "It's not safe here. My home is not far away. Are you willing to come with me?"

Li Xiangyi hesitated for a moment, but soon nodded in agreement. He seemed to realize that his current situation did not allow him to have many choices.

Qiao Wanwan carefully helped Li Xiangyi up and put his arm on her shoulder. Although she looked petite, she was able to lift Li Xiangyi, who was taller than her, effortlessly, which surprised Li Xiangyi.

The two of them walked slowly out of the forest, the moonlight guiding their direction. Qiao Wanwan could feel the warmth of Li Xiangyi's body and his rapid breathing, which he struggled to control. A strange feeling arose in her heart, but she quickly suppressed it.

"Why are you here?" Qiao Wanwan asked softly, both out of curiosity and to keep Li Xiangyi awake.

Li Xiangyi was silent for a moment, then said softly, "I'm running away from some people... some very dangerous people."

Qiao Wanwan nodded and didn't ask any further questions. She could sense the vigilance and caution in Li Xiangyi's words and knew that now was not the time to ask too many questions.

Qiao Wanwan and Li Xiangyi weaved through the bamboo forest. A gentle breeze rustled the leaves, adding a touch of coolness to the tense atmosphere. As they gradually approached the edge of the bamboo forest, they could vaguely see the scattered roofs in the distance.

Suddenly, a burst of hurried footsteps came from behind. Qiao Wanwan looked back and saw several men in black walking towards them quickly, all with fierce looks on their faces.

"Oh no, someone is coming." Qiao Wanwan whispered to Li Xiangyi and quickened her pace.

However, the men in black were faster and surrounded the two men in the blink of an eye.

The leading man in black sneered, "Little girl, hand over Li Xiangyi, and we will spare your life."

Qiao Wanwan was startled and subconsciously stood in front of Li Xiangyi, looking vigilantly at the men in black around her.

Seeing this, Li Xiangyi gently tugged at Qiao Wanwan's sleeve and whispered, "Miss Qiao, please hand me over to them. I don't want to implicate you."

Upon hearing this, Qiao Wanwan turned around and glared at Li Xiangyi, saying in a delicate voice, "What nonsense are you talking about! How can I watch you fall into their hands?"

Qiao Wanwan thought to herself: Ever since I've practiced Lingxi Sword Technique and Lingyou Heart Technique, I've never seen any real combat. I don't know what level I'm at in this world. Today, I'll show these people how powerful I am!

Thinking of this, Qiao Wanwan took a deep breath, circulated her inner Qi, and assumed the opening stance of the Lingxi Sword Technique. Her eyes grew sharp as she stared at the leading black-clad figure and said in a deep voice, "If you want to touch Li Xiangyi, you'll have to get past me first!"

The men in black were clearly not expecting this seemingly petite girl to actually resist, and were momentarily stunned. The leading man in black snorted coldly and waved his hand to signal his men to attack.

Just as the men in black were about to make a move, Qiao Wanwan suddenly struck out. Her figure was like a puff of smoke, instantly appearing in front of one of the men in black. With a single palm strike, she struck him squarely in the chest. The man in black groaned and stumbled back.

This scene stunned the other men in black. They had never expected this little girl to be so powerful. Li Xiangyi also opened his eyes wide and looked at Qiao Wanwan's back in disbelief.

Qiao Wanwan didn't stop. She weaved through the black-clad men, unleashing her spiritual swordsmanship like a fluttering butterfly, graceful yet fierce. Every move was perfectly timed, forcing the men in black back.

A moment later, most of the men in black had fallen. The remaining few looked terrified, glanced at each other, and turned to flee.

Qiao Wanwan stood there, panting slightly. She turned back to look at Li Xiangyi with a triumphant smile. Li Xiangyi stared at her blankly, as if he had seen a fairy from the ninth heaven.

Qiao Wanwan smiled and said to him, "Let's go quickly, before they call for reinforcements."

After saying that, she helped Li Xiangyi up and walked towards the house in the distance.
