Immortality and Immortality: Liver Experience Begins in the Desert

Liu Ruolan's face was pale, with blood still on the corners of her mouth, but she endured the pain and forced a smile: "Brother Qiong, I'm fine..."

Jiang Qiong's heart tightened, and he quickly took out a healing pill from his arms and fed it to Liu Ruolan:
"Don't talk, take the medicine first."

Liu Ruolan nodded, swallowed the pill obediently, closed her eyes, and began to regulate her breathing.

Jiang Qiong looked at her pale face, her heart filled with self-blame and guilt.

He clenched his fists and secretly vowed to protect Liu Ruolan and never let her get hurt again.

The old man came over, patted Jiang Qiong on the shoulder, and comforted him: "Nephew Qiong, don't blame yourself too much. The appearance of the monster was not something we could have predicted."

"Although Ruolan's injuries are serious, she shouldn't be in any serious trouble with your medicine."

Jiang Qiong nodded, took a deep breath, and tried to calm herself down: "Thank you, uncle, I will take good care of her."

The old man nodded, and then said to everyone: "Okay, everyone take a break and recover your spiritual power."

"Let's hurry on."

Everyone nodded, found a place to sit down, and began to regulate their breathing and recover.

Jiang Qiong stayed by Liu Ruolan's side, his eyes gentle but firm.

He held Liu Ruolan's hand, felt her pulse, and prayed silently in his heart that she would recover soon.

As time passed, Liu Ruolan's complexion gradually improved and her breathing became steady.

She opened her eyes and looked at Jiang Qiong, her eyes full of gratitude: "Brother Qiong, thank you."

Jiang Qiong smiled and said, "Don't thank me. We are friends, it's what we should do."

Liu Ruolan nodded, a complex emotion flashing in her eyes.

She looked at Jiang Qiong, as if she had a lot to say, but in the end she just sighed softly: “Brother Qiong, I…I have something to tell you.”

Jiang Qiong looked at her puzzledly: "What's the matter?"

Liu Ruolan hesitated for a moment, and finally mustered up the courage to say: "Actually... I'm not your real childhood sweetheart. My real identity is..."

Just then, the sound of hurried footsteps in the distance interrupted Liu Ruolan's words.

Jiang Qiong and Liu Ruolan turned their heads at the same time and found a cultivator running towards them in a hurry, his face full of anxiety.

"Brother Qiong, we found a group of monsters ahead. There are quite a lot of them. Something seems to be wrong!"

The monk said, panting.

Jiang Qiong frowned, and suddenly became alert: "Everyone be careful, get ready for battle!"

All the monks stood up, drew their weapons, and looked forward nervously.

Jiang Qiong helped Liu Ruolan up and whispered, "Ruolan, retreat to a safe place first. I will deal with these monsters."

Liu Ruolan shook her head and said firmly: "No, Brother Qiong, I want to fight with you."

Seeing her firm attitude, Jiang Qiong could only nod and said, "Okay, but you must be careful."

Liu Ruolan nodded, gripped the sword tightly in her hand, and looked determined.

Jiang Qiong took a deep breath and led everyone forward to prepare for the upcoming battle.

In the woods ahead, a group of monsters can be vaguely seen, with fierce light flashing in their eyes, as if they are waiting for something.

Jiang Qiong was secretly alert, holding the sword tightly in his hand, ready to attack at any time.

Suddenly, a huge monster rushed out from the woods, leading a group of monsters to pounce on the crowd.

Jiang Qiong did not hesitate and swung his sword to meet the attack. The sword light flashed and pierced straight into the throat of the monster.

The battle broke out again, and the cultivators used their magic to cooperate with Jiang Qiong to attack the monster.

Liu Ruolan was not to be outdone, her sword flashed like lightning, piercing the monster's vital points.

However, this time the monsters were numerous and quite powerful, so everyone was caught in a tough battle for a while.

While fighting, Jiang Qiong kept an eye on Liu Ruolan's situation, his heart filled with worry.

"Ruolan, be careful!" Jiang Qiong warned loudly, and out of the corner of his eye he saw a monster pouncing towards Liu Ruolan.

Liu Ruolan reacted quickly, dodged the monster's attack, and then swung her sword to counterattack.

However, her injuries had not yet fully recovered, and her movements were inevitably slow, and she was almost hit by the monster's sharp claws.

Jiang Qiong's heart tightened and he rushed over quickly, standing in front of Liu Ruolan and swinging his sword at the monster.

The monster let out a painful roar and fell to the ground. Jiang Qiong turned to look at Liu Ruolan and asked with concern: "Are you okay?"

Liu Ruolan shook her head and forced a smile: "I'm fine, Brother Qiong, be careful!"

Jiang Qiong nodded and continued to fight.

His sword skills were sharp and the sword light was as fast as lightning. Wherever he went, monsters fell to the ground.

However, there were too many monsters and the crowd gradually felt overwhelmed.

At this moment, there was a clear sound of bird singing in the sky, and a huge spiritual bird descended from the sky with its wings spread, covering the sky and the sun.

The appearance of the spiritual bird instantly attracted everyone's attention.

"It's a spiritual bird!" the old man exclaimed, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

The spiritual bird let out a loud cry, then swooped down, waving its sharp claws, and instantly knocked down several monsters.

Upon seeing this, the morale of the monks was boosted and they intensified their attacks, and the group of monsters were gradually repelled.

Jiang Qiong looked at the spiritual bird and couldn't help but feel relieved.

This spiritual bird is their patron saint. Whenever someone in the family is threatened, the spiritual bird will appear in time to help them resolve the crisis.

The battle finally ended and the group of monsters was completely repelled.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and began to clean up the battlefield.

Jiang Qiong supported Liu Ruolan and asked with concern: "Ruolan, are you really okay?"

Liu Ruolan nodded and smiled, "I'm fine, Brother Qiong, thank you."

Jiang Qiong looked at her strong smile and was deeply moved.

He held Liu Ruolan's hand and said firmly: "Ruolan, no matter what happens, I will protect you."

Liu Ruolan looked at Jiang Qiong, with a hint of tenderness and gratitude in her eyes: "Brother Qiong, I know."

After a fierce battle, Jiang Qiong, Liu Ruolan and others finally repelled the group of monsters.

After a short rest, everyone continued on their journey, heading towards the family.

Along the way, Jiang Qiong was always worried about the monster attack on Cuiyun Peak. He had a vague feeling that this attack was not accidental.

Finally, they returned to the family residence.

As soon as Jiang Qiong arrived at the family gate, he hurried to the study where the head of the family was.

In front of the study room, the guard saw Jiang Qiong and immediately saluted and said, "Young Master, the master is waiting for you."

Jiang Qiong's heart tightened, it seemed that her father already knew about Cuiyun Peak.

He took a deep breath, pushed open the door of the study, and walked in. In the study, the patriarch of the Jiang family was sitting in front of the desk with a serious expression.

Seeing Jiang Qiong coming in, he raised his head with a trace of concern in his eyes, and then asked:

"Qiong'er, you're back. I heard you were attacked at Cuiyun Peak. How is the situation?"

Jiang Qiong stepped forward, bowed respectfully, and spoke slowly:
"Father, we were indeed attacked by a monster at Cuiyun Peak. Ruolan was injured, but fortunately, there are healing pills, and she is fine now."

"This time there are a large number of monsters, and they are quite powerful. It seems like a premeditated attack."

The head of the Jiang family nodded, his eyes calm, "I have heard about this matter and sent people to investigate. They found that these monsters seemed to be driven by people."

"What happened to you was not accidental."

Jiang Qiong's heart trembled: "Father, are you saying that someone is controlling these monsters behind the scenes?"

The head of the Jiang family nodded, his expression becoming more solemn, and he slowly said, "Not bad."

"After our people investigated, we found that the traces of these monsters are closely related to the Wang family in the county city."

"The Wang family has been expanding its influence in the county city in recent years, using sinister means. I'm afraid this attack is related to your actions."

Jiang Qiong frowned, angry in her heart, and couldn't help shouting: "The Wang family is so despicable that they actually used monsters to attack us!"

The head of the Jiang family patted Jiang Qiong on the shoulder, with a soothing look in his eyes, and said, "Qiong'er, calm down."

"We will not let this matter go, but we need to be cautious when taking action against the Wang family."

Jiang Qiong took a deep breath, nodded, and then said, "Father, I understand."

"How do we respond?"

The head of the Jiang family pondered for a moment, then said: "I will send people to continue investigating the Wang family's movements. At the same time, you must also be vigilant to prevent similar attacks from happening again."

"How is Ruolan's injury? She needs to rest well now."

Jiang Qiong nodded and said slowly: "Ruolan's injury has stabilized, but she needs some time to recover."

"I will arrange for her to recuperate in the family and strengthen her protection."

The head of the Jiang family nodded with satisfaction, and then said, "Very good, you just experienced a fierce battle, and you need to rest well."

"Leave the rest to me."

Jiang Qiong bowed and said, "Father, I understand. I will take good care of Ruolan and will be ready to deal with any emergency at any time."

The head of the Jiang family smiled slightly, with a hint of relief in his eyes, and said, "Okay, go ahead."

Jiang Qiong left the study, her heart still filled with anger and vigilance towards the Wang family.

He returned to his courtyard and saw Liu Ruolan regulating her breathing in the room, so he walked over quietly.

Liu Ruolan opened her eyes, saw Jiang Qiong, and smiled, "Brother Qiong, you're back."

Jiang Qiong nodded, sat next to her, and asked with concern:

"Ruolan, how do you feel?"

Liu Ruolan smiled slightly and said slowly: "I'm much better, Brother Qiong, don't worry."

Jiang Qiong held her hand, looked determined, and said:

"Ruolan, I just went to see my father. He has sent people to investigate and found that the attack was orchestrated by the Wang family."

Liu Ruolan frowned and couldn't help asking, "Wang family? Why did they do this?"

Jiang Qiong smiled coldly and said slowly: "The Wang family has been expanding its power in recent years, and their methods are sinister. I'm afraid they want to consolidate their position by attacking us."

"However, my father has arranged for someone to continue the investigation. We will definitely find evidence and expose their conspiracy."

Liu Ruolan nodded, with a hint of determination in her eyes, and slowly said: "Brother Qiong, I believe you."

"No matter what happens, I will face it with you."

Jiang Qiong looked at her strong eyes, and a warm current surged in her heart. She immediately said, "Ruolan, thank you."

"I will definitely protect you, and I will make the Wang family pay for what they did."

In the next few days, the Jiang family strengthened their defenses, and Jiang Qiong and Liu Ruolan also recuperated in the family.

At the same time, the spies sent by the head of the Jiang family kept sending back news, gradually uncovering the Wang family's conspiracy.

Finally, the head of the Jiang family obtained conclusive evidence, proving that the Wang family was indeed behind the scenes manipulating the monsters to attack Jiang Qiong and others.

He immediately summoned the elders of the family to discuss countermeasures.

The head of the Jiang family was in the meeting room, looking at everyone with sharp eyes: "Dear elders, after investigation, we have confirmed that the Wang family is behind the monster attacking us."

“This incident must not be let go easily.”

An elder said in a deep voice: "Yes, the Wang family is so insidious. We must take action and cannot let them continue to be rampant."

The head of the Jiang family nodded and said slowly: "I think so too."

"I have decided to immediately submit evidence to the Law Enforcement Hall in the county city and request them to investigate the Wang family."

"At the same time, we must also be prepared to deal with the Wang family's counterattack at any time."

The elders nodded in agreement.

The head of the Jiang family immediately issued a series of orders to strengthen the family's defense and dispatched elite forces to be ready to respond to the Wang family's counterattack at any time.

After Jiang Qiong learned the news, she knew that the struggle with the Wang family had just begun.

But he was confident that with the support of his family, he would be able to defeat the Wang family and protect himself and Liu Ruolan.

As the night deepened, Jiang Qiong stood in the courtyard, looking up at the starry sky, and silently swore in her heart: "Wang family, I will make you pay the price."

Liu Ruolan walked up to him and said softly, "Brother Qiong, no matter what happens, I will be with you."

Jiang Qiong held her hand, his eyes firm, and said with a smile: "Ruolan, with you here, I have nothing to fear."

The night was as dark as ink, and the Wang family mansion was shrouded in silence.

However, this tranquility was soon broken.

Several men in black shuttled back and forth on the high walls of the mansion like ghosts. They were agile and their movements were swift and silent.

The moonlight shone on their black cloaks, creating a cold glow. Everyone's face was covered with black cloth, revealing only a pair of cold eyes.

The leading man in black waved his hand, signaling the others to disperse.

They quickly divided into several groups and quietly sneaked into every corner of the Wang family mansion.

A man in black quietly approached a remote courtyard where several Wang family guards were patrolling.

He pulled out a dagger from his waist, and his figure flashed like a ghost. The dagger flashed cold light, and the guards fell in a pool of blood before they could make any sound.

Another group of men in black sneaked into the main house of the Wang family. They easily avoided all the mechanisms and traps and went straight to the study of the head of the Wang family.

In the study, the head of the Wang family was buried in a pile of documents, unaware of the approaching danger.

Suddenly, the window of the study was quietly opened, and several dark shadows jumped in silently. (End of this chapter)
