If the trajectory remains unchanged, it will take at least five years for the Spirit Hall to take action against the three sects.

However, if a war were to break out this time, Qian Renxue's rebirth would inevitably bring the war forward.

As for how long in advance, it depends on the assessment speed of the Angel Nine Tests.

Longxing is a border city. Once the war breaks out, it will become the first battlefield. The four sects with single attributes surrendered to Dai Xiyun, and Dai Xiyun also had to ensure their safety.

Nan Li held Dan Hong with one hand, "It's better to be prepared. Don't worry, I'm still here."

Dan Hong nodded.

Forget it, don’t think about it anymore. She can’t change anything. Let’s just do the current things well first.

Dan Hong adjusted his attitude and changed the subject. "Ah Li, I plan to ask Sanniang to come to Ping An Fang. It's almost June, and most of the flowers are over. I'm afraid she and Xiao Shi will have to find a way to make a living again."

Nan Li raised his eyebrows and smiled: "It's your shop, you have the final say."

"Then I will talk to Sanniang tomorrow morning and ask her not to run out of the city every day." Dan Hong was originally laughing, but when she thought of Sanniang's voice, she felt a little regretful, "It's a pity that Sanniang's disease is congenital, and my medical skills can't cure her."

"But you can save her life. Sanniang and Xiaoshi will get better and better." Nan Li patted her, "The abyss is bottomless, you have tried your best to fill it."

"A-Li is right." Dan Hong laughed again. She reached out to touch the sun in the sky. "I hope the mainland can be as harmonious as Day Island, but without foreign enemies and with stability."

***

Sanniang is missing.

It was the day after Danhong said he wanted Sanniang to come to Ping'anfang.

That morning, Danhong waited in Pinganfang for a long time, but no one showed up. It was almost noon, and Danhong felt uneasy, so he went to find Sanniang's residence.

There are many Sanniangs in Longxing City, but there is only one mute girl Sanniang. Danhong asked around and searched for her, and finally found Sanniang's home.

An ordinary low tiled house.

Dan Hong knocked on the door to look for someone, and the person who opened the door was a woman who looked to be around 20 years old. After opening the door, the woman didn't say anything, but just stared at Dan Hong blankly.

Dan Hong took a step back.

"I, I'm here to look for Sanniang and Xiaoshi." Dan Hong explained.

The man didn't say anything. A little girl, younger than Xiao Shi, came out from behind him. "Third sister, go pick flowers. Tenth sister, come with us. We'll go out when it gets dark."

Dan Hong was a little confused.

At noon, Nanli was having lunch with Danqing and Bai Chenxiang.

Dan Hong flew in from the sky and said to Nan Li anxiously, "Ah Li, Sanniang and Xiao Shi left the city this morning and never came back. I want to go outside the city to look for them."

In order to ensure that the flowers are delivered to the buyers in the early morning, Sanniang and Xiaoshi go to pick flowers before dawn every morning and dig some medicinal herbs at the same time.

They had no flower fields of their own, nor did they have horse-drawn carriages or mule carts for transportation, so they could only go to the mountains and forests outside the city early in the morning.

Longxing City's trade was booming, and there were no strict time limits for entering and leaving the city gates. Sanniang walked slowly with Xiao Shi, leaving the house when it was still dark, in order to deliver the flowers and herbs in time. Except when the weather was bad, Sanniang would never break her promise on weekdays.

But today Sanniang did not go to Ping'anfang, and she did not return home until noon.

"Go and take a look." Nan Li stood up decisively.

Seeing this, Danqing and Bai Chenxiang also stood up and said, "Let's go together."

Bai Chenxiang's martial soul is the Spine-tailed Swift, which is a purely agile type. She is also the first one to arrive in Longxing City among the few people, so she volunteered to lead the way.

There is a continuous small mountain range outside Longxing City. The highest peak is only a thousand meters high, and the rest are hundreds of meters high.

Dan Hong was sorting out the flowers in front, and Nan Li asked casually, "Are there any hunters in the mountains?"

"This... maybe there is." Bai Chenxiang wasn't sure either. She hadn't left the city many times since coming to Longxing.

Danqing followed behind Nanli, looking thoughtful.

As we passed a mountain, we saw fewer and fewer people picking flowers and looking for herbs around.

"Does Sanniang's family know?"

"I know, but..." Dan Hong thought of what he saw today and sighed helplessly, "There are only girls in Sanniang's family, and the only one who is older than Sanniang is not convenient to go out."

There was no time to talk about who was in Sanniang's family. Dan Hong mentioned it briefly and continued to look. After all, it was she who asked Sanniang to help her dig herbs. Although she wanted to pay Sanniang more money, but... where would people go?

"Hey, it's not safe in the mountains. Little girls, don't go too deep into the mountains. There are soul beasts that eat people." An old lady carrying a basket on her back saw Nanli and the other four girls walking into the mountains and couldn't help but remind them.

"Okay, thank you, Auntie. We'll go now." Nan Li agreed with a smile and continued to move forward.

Longxing City is a trading city, but there are soul beasts eating people in the mountains and forests adjacent to the city?

Nan Li spread his spiritual power and searched along the human footprints. He crossed two mountain slopes but still did not see any traces of large soul beasts. "Let's look further ahead. There might be some animal traps. Sanniang might have fallen into them."

Sanniang can't speak and is ten years old. If she falls into the trap, it will be difficult for her to be discovered.

Half an hour later.

"Ouch, ouch--" An old woman dressed in coarse cloth collapsed on the ground, covering her leg and crying out in pain.

Nan Li stood in front, watching the old man who appeared inexplicably in the mountains with caution. They had been walking for a long time, and there were almost no people around. How could an old man suddenly appear?

The old lady sat on the ground and kept saying it hurt. Nan Li held Dan Hong down and didn't let her get close.

Finding someone is important.

Nan Li was just thinking about taking a detour when a middle-aged man with a child in his arms ran down the mountain, followed by a boy of seven or eight years old.

"Mother, mother!"

"Grandma!" The boy rushed to the old lady.

Danqing smiled and pulled Bai Chenxiang back.

Nanli and the other three watched a good show of "loving mother, filial son and obedient grandson". The man finally stood up and said to them, "Girls, I'm afraid my mother fell down. She's old and her body is not strong. I'm taking her to the city to find a doctor. Can you help me send the child home?"

"I am a hunter in this mountain. I live here. My wife is at home. Just leave the child to her."

As he said this, the man was about to hand the child, who was less than three years old, in his arms to Nan Li.

Nan Li didn't answer.

Dan Hong stepped forward and said with a smile: "I am a doctor. Let me take a look at you, Auntie."

"Ah, no, no need." The man was stunned for a moment, then turned around and stuffed the child into Dan Hong's arms, "I just happened to be going to the city to buy some things. The girls are kind enough to help me send the child back."

Nan Li suddenly held the child over and said, "Okay, how do I get to your house?"

"Da Hu knows the way. Ask him to lead the way for the girls." The man pushed another boy, who was about seven or eight years old, towards Nanli.

Da Hu was very sensible. He knew that Nan Li was the one in charge. He took two steps forward and said, "Thank you, sister."

Nan Li raised an eyebrow, "You're welcome."
