After Lu Anning learned about this affair, he was so excited he didn’t know what to say, and immediately wrote a letter home.

The war here hadn’t erupted, but small-scale skirmishes occurred. Lu Anning didn’t have the time to always stay at home.

Ten months later, Xiao Ho gave birth to two more sons.

The two older ones could already walk and talk. Although there were only the mother and five children in the residence, it was still very warm and cozy.

The servants would never come to disturb them. Su Yuanyuan, with two older and two younger children, was still very at ease.

When Lu Anning returned, the younger ones were already one and a half months old.

He was once again pleasantly surprised, now with two more sons.

The Lu Family in the Capital City received the news half a year later. It was simply a monumental good news.

Xiao Ho settled down at the border.

The family of four from the Cultivation World were somewhat unaccustomed to the climate after entering the desert.

Qi Yan held the map; the Thunder Pool was deeper inside the desert, still far according to the map.

"Dad, we need to be careful. It’s said the bandits here are extremely rampant."

"They’re all desperately wicked people."

It’s heard that there are also Divinity Transformation cultivators here. This news is uncertain, but Nascent Soul cultivators who betrayed their sects or were too notorious to survive outside gather here.

Traveling on a Flying Boat was truly unsafe for the family; tornadoes could unpredictably occur.

There was no choice but to use Sword Flight. At night, caution was of utmost importance; the danger increased significantly. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

Five days later, they finally saw an oasis.

Although aware there would be many cultivators here, the family still entered.

The supplies were not lacking, nor were they tired; how could they not explore the desert oasis since they were here?

Su Yuanyuan found it quite novel here, having read magazines and watched documentaries before, intrigued by the desert and awed by nature.

The area of this oasis was vast, with numerous cultivators within the range of her Divine Sense.

The lowest cultivation level here was Mid-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators.

The family curiously observed their surroundings. Qi Yan was quite interested in the Spirit Plant here, but they were all too common, without much use.

They tried to avoid others, and the other cultivators in the oasis also avoided them.

After a lap around, "It seems like a smaller version of a mainland, and actually quite abundant. I’m just curious why sandstorms wouldn’t swallow this place?"

The father and sons were even more clueless. They casually chose a place to set up an Array and took a rest.

"Earlier, three groups have been eyeing us."

"They don’t act in the green areas?"

Tan Shaoting nodded, "Probably. We’ll leave tomorrow and see how things are."

Su Yuanyuan entered the space, freshened up, and came out.

The next day, the family left. They realized someone was following them.

Three Golden Core, two Foundation Establishment. In the glaring sun, the family of four was intercepted.

Here, they wouldn’t ask about your origins, nor did either side waste words, immediately going for deadly moves.

Su Yuanyuan’s opponent was a Golden Core Middle Stage cultivator, while Tan Shaoting entangled two. This place spoke not of martial virtue. It wasn’t a contest; it was a life-and-death struggle.

The two brothers each dealt with a Late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator.

The people surviving in the desert weren’t exactly all desperately wicked, but they were more or less of this mindset: it’s either you die or I live.

Su Yuanyuan used the Green Water Sword Technique, and Xiao Shui and her made a seamless team.

After Tan Shaoting dispatched one Golden Core Middle Stage cultivator, she also ended her fight.

Seeing her two sons handling themselves adeptly, she thought to herself, the family wasn’t just for show; facing such opponents was true training.

The brothers acted almost simultaneously. If you do evil in this place, you should be prepared to be killed at any time. Yet, Su Yuanyuan still heard the Golden Core cultivator’s unwilling mental voice. Qi Yan and Qi Hong quickly took their Storage Rings and then burned them to ashes.

They continued on their way but hadn’t gone far before they were pursued again.

Su Yuanyuan was puzzled. How did they know they’d won? It was quite incredible.

This time, there were five Golden Cores. Only then did they realize there were so many Golden Core cultivators.

Tan Shaoting again tangled with two Later Stages, Su Yuanyuan’s opponent was also a Golden Core Later Stage, and the brothers faced Golden Core Middle Stage opponents.

After the last battle, they understood the need for a quick resolution.

Su Yuanyuan’s new opponent was incredibly strong, possessing real combat experience.

The Golden Core Later Stage cultivator was also surprised that this was merely a Late-stage Foundation Establishment female cultivator with such power?

He found it truly difficult to kill her.

Su Yuanyuan adapted to the rhythm of this combat, both sides were evenly matched.

Later, she showed no signs of Spiritual Power depletion, which made the Golden Core Later Stage cultivator extremely eager.

This female cultivator must possess some treasure; otherwise, this couldn’t be happening. A Late-stage Foundation Establishment facing someone an entire major realm higher, and noted gender differences in physical strength, yet she endured.

Moreover, this woman was genuinely very beautiful. Kill her and make her a puppet to accompany me forever, he thought.

Su Yuanyuan felt disgusted by his thoughts and decided such a man must be killed. Having known he collected over a hundred female cultivator victims, he was truly a beast.

Xiao Shui, sensing her master’s anger, sped up accordingly.

Ultimately, Su Yuanyuan slew the Golden Core Later Stage cultivator. Quickly, she gathered his two Storage Bags and Storage Ring, then used a Fireball Talisman to scatter him into oblivion.

She watched another group approaching with full alertness; another wave of cultivators was coming. This time the group was led by a Nascent Soul cultivator.

Tan Shaoting also noticed and swiftly finished off the second Golden Core Later Stage cultivator.

The brothers accelerated their actions.

After the two Golden Core Middle Stage cultivators unwillingly fell, this group of cultivators had arrived.

Su Yuanyuan frowned slightly. The Nascent Soul gave off an incredibly powerful aura, heavily laden with a sense of slaughter. Was this not a true villain?

Su Yuanyuan was deeply disgusted with his thoughts, such a villain deserved to die.

No words were exchanged between parties; Tan Shaoting engaged the Nascent Soul, though his initial target had been Su Yuanyuan. Tan Shaoting intercepted him.

Su Yuanyuan’s opponents were two Golden Core Later Stage cultivators. The brothers too faced the same situation, putting them at a disadvantage; facing one Golden Core they were enough, but two were a challenge.

While fighting, Su Yuanyuan controlled an Array with her Divine Sense, entrapping her two opponents within it.

Qi Hong was injured. So she went over to confine one of the Golden Core Later Stages, which significantly reduced Qi Hong’s pressure, alleviating his earlier scramble.

Su Yuanyuan then moved to intercept one of the cultivators besieging Qi Yan.
