Mu Xue and Mu Xue

"I declare the competition over. Today's winner is 'Lin Mo'! Now let's hand out the prize for first place. This is a rare item!"

Xuan Lingzi spoke mysteriously to the people below as he took out a piece of talisman and introduced it, "This is a single-use Soul-level 'body protection talisman'. It can withstand three attacks from any level below Life-level powerhouses. It can even withstand one attack from Life-level powerhouses. Uh...it's only for the early stages! It can withstand Spirit-level attacks for about an hour."

After he said these words, the people in the audience exclaimed, because this kind of thing is too precious. It can withstand the attacks of those below the Life-level strongman, that is, the Soul-level strongman three times. Maybe the Spirit-level strongman can't even break the defense.

Lin Mo was not expecting this reward. After all, talisman masters, alchemists, and formation masters were rare in this world, let alone a talisman master who could carve such a powerful talisman.

Lin Mo respectfully took the amulet, bowed to Xuan Lingzi to express his gratitude, then bowed to the audience to express their gratitude before leaving the stage. After Lin Mo left the stage, his heart was filled with gratitude and excitement.

He realized that this amulet would be a powerful protection for him in his future adventures.

Lin Mo thought again and again and decided that it was more important to see his sister as soon as possible, so he planned to wait until the competition was over and everyone had left before going to find his sister. So he waited for about half an hour, and around noon, he went out quietly over the wall to make sure he was not discovered. But what Lin Mo didn't know was that the great elder was waiting for him in the dark, waiting for the opportunity when he was alone outside, so as to avenge his son.

Lin Mo's speed was as fast as lightning, and he ran out of Fengshuang City as quickly as a gust of wind.

He kept on running as he sped along, with only one goal in mind - to get to the Assassination Alliance branch as soon as possible.

However, just as he was about to reach his destination, the Great Elder finally made his move! A powerful aura attacked from behind, carrying with it endless pressure and hostility.

This breath was like a surging wave, hitting Lin Mo's body.

Lin Mo felt the attack from the Great Elder, but he did not stop. He gritted his teeth, gathered all his strength, and rushed forward at an accelerated speed.

He knew that if the Great Elder caught up with him, the consequences would be disastrous.

The Great Elder's attacks became more and more fierce, and sharp sword energy intertwined into a net in the air, trying to block Lin Mo's way.

But Lin Mo relied on his agility and flexibility to avoid these attacks and continued to advance towards the Assassination Alliance branch.

In this life-and-death chase, time becomes extremely tight. Every second is full of danger and challenges, and Lin Mo must go all out to escape the pursuit of the elder.

"Lin Mo! I don't know why you're leaving the city now, but you must die here today! Even if you're a child of destiny, there's no way talent can make up for the gap in realm. Prepare to die!"

After saying that, the Great Elder took out his sword and rushed forward without waiting for Lin Mo to speak. Lin Mo was shocked and dodged quickly, but how could a spirit-level person like him be a match for a soul-level powerhouse?

By the time he reacted, it was already over. The Great Elder was already in front of him. He barely blocked the attack by summoning his own sword, but was also knocked back several meters. Lin Mo steadied himself and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. He looked at the cracked sword again and looked up at the position of the Great Elder: "As expected of a soul-level powerhouse. Today, cough cough, I might really die here, but I won't give up! Even if there is only a glimmer of hope! I will fight to survive!"

After saying that, he took out the talisman paper he had just obtained in the morning. The talisman paper burned in his hand and formed a protective shield around him.

He wanted to live, wanted to see his sister, and didn't want to make her sad. He hadn't left this troubled place with his sister yet, and he wanted to see this beautiful world with her...

"Humph! You are so willing to use such precious talisman paper like this. But after all, you are going to die here today, and you won't be able to use it in the future if you don't use it. Hahahahahahaha!

I'll let you taste death today. If I cripple you, you'll be getting it easy!" The Great Elder roared as he raised his sword and attacked.

The first strike! Bang! It was blocked.

The second attack! "Tong" was also blocked.

"The final blow! You! Are you ready to face death? Hahahahahahahaha!"

The third attack! "Bang!" It was blocked, but the shield was also shattered!

Lin Mo saw the shattered shield and thought: Is this really the end? Is there really no miracle happening? I can't accept this! I can't accept this!

"Watch carefully! When you are in the underworld, remember that this sword is the one that will send you down!"

A dark white light suddenly appeared on the Great Elder's sword. After a short period of charging, it slashed towards Lin Mo. Lin Mo had been seriously injured by the Great Elder's first sword and had no way to dodge. This sword was definitely not something Lin Mo could withstand at the moment.

Just before Lin Mo was about to be cut, a green blade light suddenly attacked and interrupted the Great Elder's attack.

"Humph! You're so bold! You dare to come and kill my people from the Assassination Alliance? I think you're tired of living. Come and die!"

A loud voice sounded, and a sturdy man came with a big green knife in his hand. The knife looked scary from a distance, as if one would be swallowed if they looked at it for a second longer.

Lin Mo knew this person. He was the leader of the branch of the Assassin Alliance, Feng Batian, who had invited him to join! The moment Lin Mo saw him, he knew he was saved, because this leader was much stronger than the head of the first of the five major families in Fengshuang City!

"Who are you? Why did you save him? Wait, you just said the Assassination Alliance? Are you from the Assassination Alliance? You just said that Lin Mo is from the Assassination Alliance!"

The Great Elder was so frightened when he said this that he lost his grip on the sword and dropped it to the ground. He knelt down and kowtowed to Feng Batian, begging for mercy: "I'm... I'm sorry, Senior. I... I didn't know Lin Mo was from the Assassination Alliance. I... I really know I was wrong... I'm wrong. Please don't bully me and let me go!"

"Let you go? Humph! Did you think about letting him go just now? I'm in a good mood today, so I'll let you die more quickly!" Feng Batian raised his sword and the head of the elder fell to the ground.

Lin Mo breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that he had finally escaped.

Feng Batian walked over to Lin Mo and checked his injuries. "Boy, are you okay?" Lin Mo shook his head. "Thank you, leader, for saving my life. You're welcome. Since you're from the Assassination Alliance, you're my brother, Feng Batian."

Feel free to come to me if you have any problems in the future." Feng Batian patted Lin Mo's shoulder.

Lin Mo was deeply moved and decided that he must repay the Assassination Alliance and Feng Batian in the future.

He remembered why he came here and wanted to get up to find his sister, but as soon as he stood up, Lin Mo felt his consciousness blurred and fell to the ground unconscious.

"Hey! What's wrong with you, kid? Hey, hey!" Feng Batian shook Lin Mo's body a few more times, and seeing that he still didn't move, he decided to take him back to the branch first, and then find a doctor for him.

Mu Xue sat on the bed in the branch room with Linglong in her arms. She stroked Linglong's soft fur with a dull look in her eyes as if she was thinking about something.

When she felt thirsty and wanted to drink a glass of water, she put Linglong down and turned around to see a burly man walking in with someone in his arms. Yes, this man was Feng Batian, and in his arms was her brother Lin Mo. Mu Xue had been here for a while, and Feng Batian had seen her and talked about some things with her.

Mu Xue was shocked when he saw his brother being carried in!

She covered her mouth and couldn't speak in the middle of the night, tears welling up in her eyes. After a long while, she finally asked, "Uncle Batian, what happened to my brother...my brother?"

"I used my internal energy to check his body. His internal injuries are quite serious. You wait here while I find a doctor." After Feng Batian finished speaking, he put Lin Mo down and turned to walk out.

Mu Xue looked at Lin Mo lying on the bed and suddenly burst into tears.

"Brother! Brother! Wake up! Please don't leave me, okay?" Mu Xue only has her brother in her mind now. She is willing to do anything for anyone who can save him.

The little fox "Linglong" beside him was also very anxious when he saw Lin Mo lying there unconscious.

At this moment, a pink light like peach blossoms burst out from Muxue's body. The light lasted for about ten breaths. After the light ended, a flower wand appeared in front of Muxue.

On the surface, this flower stick is an irregularly shaped wooden stick, but it is decorated with many vine-like things and many pink flowers blooming on the vines.

Mu Xue seemed to know something suddenly. She picked up the flower stick and closed her eyes as if she was playing with it. After a while, she suddenly opened her eyes, plucked a pink petal from the front end of the flower stick, and blew it towards Lin Mo who was lying unconscious on the bed. The petal then floated towards Lin Mo.

The petals floated and floated until they landed in front of Lin Mo's chest. They disappeared after falling. Less than a moment later, Lin Mo's whole body was emitting pink light, as if his body had been purified.

The light gradually dissipated, and Lin Mo's pale face turned rosy. Mu Xue burst into tears of joy and threw herself on Lin Mo, feeling his gradually recovering body temperature.

At this time, Feng Batian rushed back. He said embarrassedly, "Alas, Muxue, I'm sorry. I've asked several doctors today, but none of them were available. I can't do anything. Eh? I see that Lin Mo looks much better. Let me take a look at his internal organs."

Feng Batian used his internal energy to probe Lin Mo's body again, and found that everything had healed!

Feng Batian looked at Mu Xue and found that she was already asleep. He felt the healing atmosphere in the room and seemed to understand something. He just nodded and walked out without saying anything.

After an unknown amount of time, Lin Mo woke up and found Mu Xue lying next to him and asleep. He moved Mu Xue gently and she slowly woke up. He rubbed his hazy eyes and saw that Lin Mo, who should have been lying on the bed, was already awake. He immediately threw himself into Lin Mo's arms and said with a sob, "Brother, you finally woke up. I missed you so much. I thought I would never see you again. Woo woo woo."

Lin Mo caressed Mu Xue's back lovingly and comforted her, "Okay, okay, I'm fine now, don't worry. By the way, should I call you Mu Xue now? Or...?"

Mu Xue loosened her arms around Lin Mo, lowered her head, and replied, "Call me Mu Xue. This is what my sister wanted. She wants me to forget those bad memories."

"Okay, then I'll call you Muxue. Emmm, forget it, Xue'er sounds better." Lin Mo touched Muxue's head lovingly.

"By the way, Xue'er, where is Alliance Leader Feng Batian? I want to thank him very much, but he saved me!" Lin Mo said excitedly while holding Mu Xue's hand.

"Uh... I don't know where he went. Maybe he went out for something. Brother, are you hungry? I'll make you something delicious. I've been learning to cook these days!" Mu Xue said as she started to get busy.

"Great! My sister can cook at the age of four. That's amazing! I couldn't cook when I was your age!" Lin Mo said with a smile.

"I'm going to cook! Brother, you lie here for a while. I'll call you when I'm done." Mu Xue said and ran to the kitchen.

Lin Mo nodded and lay down obediently.

The little fox "Linglong" looked at Lin Mo and was afraid that he would be bored, so he jumped onto the bed and started playing with Lin Mo.

As for cooking, Mu Xue could only make millet porridge. She couldn't even lift a pot, let alone stir-fry. But she still tried hard to make a delicious meal to reward her brother.

In the kitchen, Mu Xue carefully washed the millet, then put it into the pot and added appropriate amount of water.

Then she turned on the stove and simmered it slowly over low heat.

Although her movements were a little clumsy, her eyes were full of seriousness and anticipation.

After a while, Mu Xue came out of the kitchen and told Lin Mo that the meal was ready. Mu Xue asked Lin Mo to sit at the table over there and wait, while she went to serve Lin Mo the meal.

Lin Xue was still young, not very strong, and had small hands, so she could only carry one bowl of rice at a time.

"I know my brother likes millet porridge, so I learned it from Brother Wang Qiu. Come and try it!" Mu Xue happily pointed to the steaming millet porridge on the table.

Lin Mo smelled the fragrant millet porridge and his stomach started to growl.

He picked up the spoon, stirred it gently, and then carefully scooped a spoonful into his mouth.

"Wow, it smells so good!" Lin Mo couldn't help but exclaim in admiration. He savored the fragrance, feeling the warmth flowing down his throat, as if his whole body was moisturized.

"As long as brother likes it." Mu Xue was very happy seeing Lin Mo eating with relish.

Lin Mo scooped up another spoonful and was about to put it into his mouth when he suddenly felt a scorching heat.

He subconsciously wanted to vomit it out, but was afraid of wasting food, so he tried hard to hold it back.

"Cough cough cough..." Lin Mo's throat was burned and it was so uncomfortable that tears were about to come out.

"Brother, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?" Seeing this, Mu Xue hurried over and asked.

Lin Mo made a bitter face and pointed at his mouth: "It's too hot, my tongue is about to be burned."

Mu Xue patted Lin Mo's back distressedly: "I'm sorry, brother, I didn't know it would be so hot. Please wait a while before eating."

Lin Mo nodded helplessly and decided to take a break and wait for the millet porridge to cool down before continuing to eat.

Mu Xue watched Lin Mo covering his mouth and laughing secretly. Although she didn't mean to do it, she didn't expect that her brother didn't notice it.
