Bloody Kyoto

"Zong'er!"

After walking through the muddy ground, before even entering the grove, the group heard the mournful cries of the Li family head.

Yunji had already said that the eldest son of the Li family was gone, so no one found it strange when they heard this voice.

They had many doubts in their minds: who was so bold as to arrest and kill people right under their noses?

Upon entering the grove and witnessing the scene before them, some of the more timid and unprepared individuals screamed in fright.

Li Liuzong was entangled between two trees by vines, with more than a dozen vines passing through his body and wrapping around the tree trunks on both sides.

The Fu family members, and those who had witnessed the death of the maidservant at the entrance of the Fu mansion, couldn't help but gasp.

They died in the exact same way.

The only difference was that the maid had a smile on her face, while Li Jizong looked completely bewildered.

"Zong'er!" The head of the Li family roared and fainted, only to be caught by the guards.

Yun Ji frowned as he looked at Li Liuzong, who was still hanging between the two trees. He didn't move, and neither did the others, who didn't even dare to make a sound.

For a moment, the only sounds in the entire forest were the wind and the chirping of insects.

After a while, Yunji raised his hand and said, "Go and take him off."

Immediately, a guard stepped forward with his sword, but when the sword struck the vine, it broke with a loud 'clang'.

The guards were incredulous, and so were the others.

Especially the Fu family and Princess Hui, the vines that hung the maid were easy to cut.

The surprise in Li Nanle's eyes, who was hiding not far away, was fleeting; the vines had actually hardened.

Is this the third-tier superpower?

But why didn't she feel anything?

But this is a good thing!

Yunji's expression grew increasingly grim; Ah Hui's guess was probably about to come true.

An alien has come to seek revenge.

The nobles all gave their guards meaningful glances, signaling them to go forward.

In an instant, many people stepped forward. Yun Ji glanced at them sideways and said, "You can't cut them."

"Amitabha, you come and chop!"

"Yes, Second Master!" A voice came from above, and then a gray figure holding a short sword swooped down from above.

Everyone was amazed. When exactly did this person get above them?

They didn't notice at all.

With a few quick swishes, the vines snapped off, and Ami caught Li Jizong's body.

Before they could marvel at the man's prowess, they saw the vines still clinging to Li Jizong's corpse suddenly grow longer and begin to sway.

Ami was a rare expert. He noticed the movement of the vines the moment they moved. He immediately dropped Li Jizong's body and shouted, "Second Master, retreat!"

Yun Ji only took one step back. His expression was unpleasant, but his actions were calm, as if he was not afraid of the wildly waving vines at all.

The others, however, did not possess his strong mental fortitude. Upon seeing the corpse pierced by vines, they could still explain it away as the work of a martial arts master.

But now, seeing the vines dancing in the air, everyone had only one thought in their minds: these vines had become sentient.

Most people find it somewhat unacceptable.

Even though Huo Yunxia is strong and has healing abilities, in everyone's eyes she is just a rather special person.

I never imagined that there were monsters in this world.

Except for a few individuals, everyone else retreated to a great distance in fear.

Ami truly lived up to his reputation as a rare master, wielding his short sword with lightning speed, cutting countless vines into pieces.

After witnessing Ami's skill, Li Nanle decided to kill him, so he used vines to grab him.

But I never expected this person to be so capable.

The vines generated by her superpower were constantly being cut down, and her superpower was also rapidly disappearing.

She should have stopped, but she was still seething with anger. If she didn't get rid of this person, he would surely become an obstacle on her path to revenge.

She increased the amount of her supernatural power she channeled, and the vines grew more than twice as fast as before.

Ami also felt the strain. He knew that if this continued, he would be defeated in less than a quarter of an hour due to exhaustion of his internal energy.

It doesn't matter if he dies, but the Second Master cannot be harmed.

Just as he was about to remind the Second Master to leave quickly, he heard the Second Master's voice.

"Amitabha, please give me your support!"

Hearing this, he felt relieved. The fact that the Second Master had given such an order meant that he already had a plan.

Unlike others who believed it was a plant that had become a spirit, Yunji knew better: someone knew how to control plants.

Once the person in control is found, there is nothing to fear.

A moment later, Yunji shouted, "Ajue, northwest direction!"

Another figure rushed towards Li Nanle. Li Nanle naturally heard Yun Ji's voice as well. She calmly withdrew her supernatural power and entered the space.

Ajue stood where Li Nanle was squatting, intently examining his surroundings.

"You haven't caught the person?" Yun Ji walked over with his men.

Ah Jue, with a blank face, clasped his hands in a fist and said, "Second Master, I am incompetent and let him escape."

Yun Ji wasn't angry at all, and simply asked, "Have you seen what kind of person he is?"

"No, I didn't see a single shadow. If it weren't for the trampling marks here, I wouldn't even be sure this is the place."

Upon hearing this, Yun Ji frowned again. "Check the direction."

The guards immediately sprang into action.

After a thorough search, everyone who returned to report found no trace of anyone moving around.

Upon receiving this news, Yunji mentally labeled Li Nanle as a martial arts master once again.

It's impossible for someone to leave no trace when they walk by; the fact that there are none now can only mean that this person possesses exceptional lightness skills.

Li Nanle was not discouraged when she returned to her space. She first fed Xiao Guai some beans and hay, and then calmly took out the ingredients to start cooking.

Her eyes were looking elsewhere, but her hands never stopped chopping vegetables; it must be said that her knife skills were excellent.

The potato shreds were cut as if they had been shredded with a grater.

Cut them up, rinse them with water, and plate them.

She started washing and deveining the river shrimp again. These shrimp were raised in her space and were quite large, so she only took eight.

Wash the shrimp, arrange them on a plate, and set them aside.

Then they took out an old hen from the warehouse, gutted it, washed it clean, and put it in an earthenware pot to stew.

Next, we started stir-frying shredded potatoes and boiling river shrimp.

After cooking two dishes, but the stewed chicken wasn't ready yet, she went back to her room and took out a worn-out notebook from the drawer.

This notebook contains notes she and Yunxia took when they were researching how to upgrade superpowers.

Turning to the first page, it states that the awakening of superpowers is random and cannot be artificially created.

The following section also records many examples of man-made failures.

She turned to the second page, which recorded Yunxia's first significant increase in her supernatural abilities.

Yunxia was very excited that day, and she wrote down everything she ate, drank, and did that day.

We can analyze from this to find out exactly what caused the increase in superpowers.

She recorded the following: Food: large tomatoes grown in Nanle, roasted pork chops from Nanle, and stir-fried green vegetables from Nanle.

Drink: Watermelon juice squeezed in Nanle.

What he did: He stepped out the door with his left foot first, jumped down the stairs, and cursed at a senior citizen who was taking advantage of his age.

Oh, right, I also praised Nanle's cooking skills today.

As Li Nanle looked at the handwriting, her eyes gradually reddened.
