I've been reborn, who still chases the school hunk?

Lu Xuanxin and Tianying were unaware of these people's plots and plans. After taking a short rest, they continued on their way. Old Lady Li gave them a map, indicating the route to the Nebula Empire. They could reach their destination faster by walking east along the mountains than by taking the right path.

The two had already entered the territory of the Okra Country. This country was named after Okra, and it was said that it was named after a vast sea of ​​okra flowers. It was autumn, and the okra flowers in the sea of ​​flowers were blooming in brilliant colors. However, the two did not have time to appreciate this beautiful scenery, as their goal was to reach the Nebula Empire as soon as possible.

After passing through Qiukui Country, leaving the mountains and passing through several medium-sized countries, they will reach the Nebula Empire. The two of them increased their speed greatly, and with the help of the Wind Shadowless Body Skill, they moved forward without any obstacles. They did not encounter any attacks from monsters along the way. It may be because the Qiukui family often sent disciples here to train, so the monsters in this area have been almost cleared.

However, just before dusk, Lu Xuanxin and Tianying were on their way and suddenly became alert. They sensed the presence of a group of people ahead, and their presence was very similar to that of the man surnamed Qian and others they had met before.

"It's you again!" Lu Xuanxin frowned and said coldly to the man named Qian whose hand was broken. Her heart was filled with anger and dissatisfaction. These people were so ignorant of their own lives and repeatedly provoked them.

Greed is the original sin. Some people are courting death and cannot be saved. Lu Xuanxin sighed inwardly.

"I will avenge your broken hands! If you hand over your rings and weapons, I may spare your lives!" Li Peng stared at them fiercely with murderous intent. His eyes flashed with greed and viciousness, as if he wanted to devour the two women.

Lu Xuanxin said nothing more, and mobilized her spiritual power to quickly seal her hands to prepare for the battle. She was not a bloodthirsty person, but she had to do so because of the world's pressure. She knew that these people would not let them go easily, and only fighting could protect herself and Tianying.

At this moment, a powerful aura suddenly descended from the sky, covering the entire area. Lu Xuanxin and Tian Ying were startled, and when they looked up, they saw an old man coming from the sky. He exuded the powerful aura of a peak Spirit King, had a long lifespan, and unfathomable strength.

"Fire-type immortal skills? Not good, retreat quickly!" The leader of this team was the ancestor of the Li family, a powerful person at the peak of the Spirit King level. He saw at a glance that the immortal skills used by Lu Xuanxin were extremely powerful, and he was horrified. He didn't expect that one of the two women was good at immortal skills, and they were immortal skills with extremely strong fire attack power.

The ancestor was horrified, but also understood the situation of his family's strong men. Under the attack of the fire immortal skills, they might all be destroyed here. He hurriedly shouted to retreat, but some people did not react and fled instinctively; while others stood there in a daze and were eventually swallowed by the sea of ​​fire.

Li Peng and his two companions met with misfortune again. As powerful men at the level of great spiritual masters, they reacted a little slower and were also engulfed by the flames. The fire raged and engulfed several people before gradually dying out, leaving only charred charcoal all over the ground and a burning smell in the air.

"Who are you?" The old ancestor looked at the Li family's strong men lying on the scorched earth, and felt heartbroken. These are the elites of the family! He didn't expect that a simple mission would encounter such a powerful opponent, resulting in heavy losses for the family.

Lu Xuanxin and Tian Ying watched this scene coldly, without any ripples in their hearts. They knew that this was the way the world was, the strong survived and the weak were eliminated. They just did what they should do, protecting themselves and the people around them. As for those greedy and ignorant people, they would never show mercy.

"How could you understand!" Lu Xuanxin secretly adjusted her breath in her heart, her voice was as cold as ice, and her eyes flashed with unquestionable determination, and she answered. Although her face looked childish, she revealed a majesty that should not be underestimated, as if she had endless power hidden in her body, ready to burst out at any time.

The air around him seemed to freeze. The Li ancestor gnashed his teeth in anger, his face was ashen, like the sky before a storm, terribly gloomy. At this moment, he was already in a difficult situation, secretly regretting that he should not have easily provoked these two seemingly fragile women who were actually very powerful. The space ring, treasures, and immortal skills were all rare treasures that could never be possessed by an ordinary family. These two women must be the pride of a large sect. If they became enemies, the consequences would be disastrous.

"Hmph! If you don't tell me, you'll lose your lives! I want to see how many times you can use this magical spell?" The ancestor of the Li family's words were threatening, but he could not hide his inner panic.

Hearing this, Lu Xuanxin raised a faint smile, which contained both mockery of the ignorance of the Li ancestor and confidence in her own strength. "You are right, I really cannot use this magic frequently. But you should also think that we are of extraordinary origin, so aren't we afraid of the sect's revenge?" Her voice was calm and powerful, and every word was like a heavy hammer, hitting the heart of the Li ancestor.

The Li ancestor was shocked by her momentum and couldn't help wondering if she had any other tricks up her sleeve. However, he looked around and found that his disciples didn't notice anything unusual, which made him feel relieved. He thought Lu Xuanxin was just bluffing.

"As long as we act secretly, no one will know. Moreover, if something happens to you in this mountain range, casualties are common. Even if the sect investigates, I have a way to deal with it." The Li ancestor responded firmly, trying to cover up his inner fear with words.

Lu Xuanxin sighed softly, shook her head, and a trace of regret flashed in her eyes. "If that's the case, then you can die!" Her voice was soft, but it was full of irresistible determination. She had no intention of taking anyone's life, but the other party was pressing forward step by step, and it was a situation of no return.

"Haha..." Upon hearing her words, the Li ancestor couldn't help but burst into laughter, his laughter full of madness and disdain, "You little girl! Don't you know what's happening? Now you are powerless to resist. I thought it was not a good idea to bully the weak, but if you hand over the space ring and the treasure, I can let you die quickly."

However, his laughter did not last long, as it was interrupted by an even colder voice. "No, you are the ones who are ignorant of the current situation." This voice was like ten thousand years of ice, or like a demon returning from the Netherworld, chilling people's hearts.

As the voice sounded, a powerful momentum came like a mountain pressing down on their heads, making the Li family ancestors and others feel that the air became heavy in an instant, as if even their flesh, bones, and nerves were oppressed. Their faces suddenly changed, and they were terrified, but they could no longer escape this sudden misfortune.

The laughter of the Li ancestor suddenly stopped, and his consciousness began to blur. Before he died, only three words flashed through his mind: protector. It turned out that in order to protect talented disciples, the big sects often sent strong people to accompany them for protection. These strong people were called protectors. Their existence was to ensure that the disciples would not encounter any accidents on the road of cultivation.

Lu Xuanxin calmly watched these people turn into ashes in an instant, but she couldn't help but feel pain in her heart. This is the cruelty of survival! She knew very well that in this world where the strong are respected, kindness is often a weakness. But even so, she was unwilling to give up her principles easily.

"Mammy, you scared me." Zi Huang appeared beside Lu Xuanxin and hugged her gently, while complaining that Old Lady Li was too violent. Old Lady Li's facial muscles twitched. She had clearly shown mercy and no blood was shed, but now she was blamed for violence? But seeing the pale faces of Lu Xuanxin and Tianying, she began to wonder if she had gone too far.

"Miss, are you okay?" Old Mrs. Li asked with concern.

"Not bad." Lu Xuanxin tried hard to suppress the discomfort, exhaled gently, looked up at the sky, and saw dense layers of leaves, like a barrier of nature, isolating this cruel world from outside.

"Young lady, you are too kind-hearted. In this world, the strong are respected and the fittest survive. When you encounter a bad person, you must deal with him decisively without hesitation." Old Lady Li said earnestly, "The world outside is very cruel. For resources and treasures, fathers and sons can become enemies, and husbands and wives can become enemies. If you are too indecisive, you will only end up hurting yourself and the people around you."

There was a bit of helplessness and vicissitudes in her words, and it was obvious that she had a deep understanding of this world. She looked at Zi Huang and Lin Xiaofeng, with a complex light flashing in her eyes, as if she was thinking about how to make them better adapt to this cruel world.

Kindness is often a weakness in this world. The devil will not let you go because of your kindness, and the evil people will not change because of your kindness. This is a cruel and true truth, and Lu Xuanxin deeply experienced this today.

"The human hearts of people in this world are more terrifying and dangerous than magical beasts. So when you are out there exploring, the thing you need to be most wary of is the human hearts." There was a heaviness and worry in Old Lady Li's words. She knew very well how cruel and complex this world was, and she was also worried that Lu Xuanxin and Zi Huang would lose their way in this dangerous world.

"Mammy, I understand." Lu Xuanxin looked a little depressed. What happened today was indeed a profound lesson for her. She understood that in this world, kindness cannot be a shield to protect oneself, but may become a weakness for others to attack oneself. She needs to learn to be stronger and more decisive in order to better protect herself and the people around her.

Seeing that she had understood the truth, Old Lady Li stopped talking. She knew that Lu Xuanxin was a smart and sensitive child. She would learn from today's experience and grow into a stronger and more mature person. And she would always be by her side, protecting her until she truly became a strong person in this world.

……

On this day, the Lu Mansion welcomed a distinguished guest. The sun shone through the sparse clouds and sprinkled on the bluestone slabs of the Lu Mansion, adding a bit of warmth to this ancient mansion.

"Manager Deng from Tianyu Commercial Bank? Why did he suddenly visit my house?" Lu Nanshan pondered in his heart after hearing the announcement. He frowned slightly, and his eyes revealed a hint of doubt and vigilance. Tianyu Commercial Bank is spread all over the continent, covering all the needs of people's livelihood. It can be said to be the economic lifeline of Jingjiang. The most eye-catching thing is that they can often take out some rare resources for auction, attracting people to scramble to get close to them. But they have always focused on doing business, not getting involved in power disputes, and not easily stepping into the mansions of other families. Why did they suddenly visit today?

Although Lu Nanshan was puzzled, he had to go out to greet the guests since they were already at the door. He straightened his clothes and strode towards the door with a smile on his face. "Dear guest! Distinguished guest! Steward Deng, please take a seat! Someone, make a pot of the spiritual tea given by Master Fengshan to entertain the distinguished guest." He looked at the guests as he spoke. One of them was naturally Steward Deng, who was the general manager of Tianyu Commercial Bank in Jingjiang. He was fat and smiling, giving people a feeling that harmony brings wealth. The other old man was a white-haired old man in his seventies, with a ruddy complexion, a sweet smile, and a noble aura all over his body. He looked very unfamiliar.

"Master Lu, I am sorry to come here to visit you. Actually, I want to visit Senior Feng." Steward Deng bowed and saluted with a respectful attitude. His words were polite and humble, and he was obviously full of respect for both the Lu family and Senior Feng.

Hearing this, Lu Nanshan was even more confused. Elder Feng? Could it be the legendary strong man? He pondered in his heart, but his face remained calm. "Oh? Manager Deng wants to see Elder Feng? What can you do for him?" There was a hint of tentativeness and caution in his words, and it was obvious that he did not want to easily reveal Elder Feng's whereabouts.

Manager Deng smiled and took out a letter from his pocket. "Master Lu, this is a letter written by my master. I hope Senior Feng can take a look. As for the specific matters, my master did not reveal too much, but only said that it was about a transaction of a rare treasure." There was a bit of mystery and expectation in his words, and he was obviously full of confidence in this transaction.
