"Sister, didn't Daddy say that the Imperial Capital seems to be in the Central Province?"
"Yes, and Daddy also said that our Dashi Village is in Lan Province. The Central Province is south of Lan Province, so that should mean it's to the south of Dashi Village."
"Sister, do you know which direction is south?"
High up in the sky, the siblings flew while chatting.
But upon hearing the last question, Chu Xin suddenly stopped in mid-air.
Chu Chen was caught off guard and almost crashed into her. Fortunately, his skill in flying on his blade was very proficient; he stepped on the heaven-breaking blade, flashed past Chu Xin, and stopped a few dozen meters ahead, complaining, "Sister, why did you stop so suddenly? I almost crashed into you."
Chu Xin ignored him, extending her snow-white finger to point in all directions—front, back, left, and right—her pretty little brows almost knitting together.
Clearly, she didn't know which direction was south either.
Chu Chen flew back, looked at the forest below that looked like ants, then looked around again and asked once more, "Sister, how about we go back and ask Grandpa Village Chief?"
"Smack!"
Chu Xin reached out her snow-white little hand and gently smacked Chu Chen on the head, rolling her eyes as she said, "You idiot, we barely managed to run away; if we go back now, would Grandpa Village Chief still let us out?"
Although Grandpa Village Chief couldn't beat her, she wouldn't dare hit Grandpa Village Chief.
Don't let Daddy's usual good temper fool you; if she dared to hit the grandpas, grandmas, uncles, aunts, older brothers, sisters, younger brothers, or younger sisters in the village, Daddy would really beat her bottom until it blossomed.
"Then what should we do?" Chu Chen asked, rubbing his little head.
"Forget it, let's just keep going. We'll find a place with people and just ask."
Chu Xin waved her hand, and the siblings continued flying forward.
They didn't know how long they had been flying, but they finally spotted a group of ant-like figures moving on the ground below.
"There are people! Let's go down and ask."
Chu Xin cheered, formed a hand seal, and the heaven-slashing sword descended from the clouds, diving downwards.
"Sister, wait for me!"
Chu Chen also hurriedly followed.
The siblings, one after the other, fell like meteors, hovering in mid-air to look down at the ground.
They saw a group of green wolves, one zhang tall, surrounding a group of women.
The green wolves spat out wind blades; wherever they passed, trees were destroyed, showing immense destructive power.
However, the women's movement techniques and swordsmanship were also very exquisite; while dodging attacks, they could still launch counterattacks.
It was just a pity that there were too many green wolves—densely packed, as if they were endless.
"Sister, wow, so many big dogs! How long will it take to roast them all?"
Chu Chen's eyes shone as he looked at the green wolves, incredibly excited.
Besides practicing blade techniques, his greatest hobby was roasting meat.
As long as it wasn't a person, he wanted to roast whatever he saw.
"So many big dogs, how long will it take to eat them all?"
Chu Xin's eyes also shone, and she stuck out her little tongue to lick her lips, swallowing hard.
Besides practicing sword techniques, her greatest hobby was eating the meat her brother roasted.
"Little brother, get the tools ready. I'm going first."
She was craving it so much that she jumped straight off the heaven-slashing sword, and the heaven-slashing sword turned into a stream of light and submerged into her body.
Daddy had said that unless it was an absolute last resort, she shouldn't use that sword to fight, or bad people would steal it.
With a loud boom, the ground shook and dust flew into the air.
The sudden commotion startled the group of women and the green wolves, all of whom turned to look.
Unfortunately, as far as their eyes could see, there was nothing but green wolves; they couldn't see anything unusual.
The next moment, the wail of a green wolf rang out, and then a zhang-tall green wolf was seen flying into the air, hurtling through the sky toward the position where the women were.
"Protect the Governor!"
The group of women thought it was an attack from the green wolves and hurriedly shielded a woman wearing a bamboo hat in their center.
"Bang!"
The green wolf crashed to the ground, struggled a few times, and then went still.
"It's dead?"
The women were stunned.
Before they could figure out the situation, green wolf corpses came flying over at an even faster speed, leaving the group of women completely bewildered.
Fortunately, the green wolves surrounding them were obviously also a bit bewildered, so they didn't take the opportunity to launch an attack.
"Governor, could it be that an even stronger Demonic Beast has arrived?"
Suddenly, one woman swallowed hard and said with a trembling voice.
Once these words were spoken, everyone became alert again.
Stronger than the green wolves?
Wouldn't that be at the level of a Tier 5 or even Tier 6 Beast?
Each of the green wolves here was a Tier 4 Beast comparable to a Martial Emperor, and they could barely fend them off.
But if a Tier 5 Beast comparable to a Martial Grandmaster, or even a Tier 6 Beast comparable to a Martial Venerable came, they would likely be wiped out entirely.
The woman wearing the bamboo hat frowned slightly, a trace of worry appearing in her eyes. This person behind the scenes can even command Tier 5 Beasts; their strength is so terrifying. Can I still safely reach the Lan Province Prefecture Government?
At this moment, the sound of a flute rang out, though it was impossible to tell where it came from.
The green wolves, which had been bewildered, now had red light flickering in their eyes; they turned back to launch an attack on the group of women, and it was even more frenzied than before.
The women fought hard to resist, but there were too many green wolves, and they were constantly shrinking the encirclement, leaving the women with less and less room to maneuver.
"Bang!"
Just then, a black shadow descended from the sky, landing in front of the women. The ground shook violently, and several nearby green wolves were even sent flying.
When the dust settled and they saw clearly who had landed in front of them, the women were dumbfounded.
"A child?"
"He looks like he's only three years old."
"Did he fall from the sky?"
"Is that a big pot he's holding? And a strange rack?"
The women couldn't believe it; how could a three-year-old child cause such a huge commotion?
What made them feel even more incredulous was that this child was holding a big pot larger than three of him in one hand, and a pitch-black, strange-looking rack in the other.
"This child..."
When the Governor saw Chu Chen, an inexplicable sense of closeness arose in her heart, and she couldn't help but reveal a trace of doubt in her eyes.
"Auntie, help me look after the big pot and the barbecue rack."
Chu Chen threw the big pot and the barbecue rack in front of the women, then charged into the bewildered pack of green wolves.
"Careful! These green wolves are Tier 4 Beasts."
The Governor was startled; such a tiny little thing wouldn't even be enough for a green wolf to snack on.
But before she could finish her sentence, she saw Chu Chen jump onto a green wolf, waving his chubby little fist, and smash it onto the green wolf's head with a single punch.
With a crack, the green wolf wailed, collapsed to the ground, twitched twice, and then stopped moving.
"This..."
Everyone was stunned.
That was a Tier 4 Beast, comparable to a Martial Emperor, and it was smashed to death by that three-year-old child with a single punch?
Amidst everyone's stunned silence, Chu Chen leaped into the air again, landed in the wolf pack, and then they saw green wolf after green wolf flying into the air, only to twitch twice after landing and then die.
And in another direction, the same scene was playing out.
At this moment, they also saw clearly that it was a very delicately featured three-year-old little girl.
She was also waving a pair of snow-white little hands, one punch for each green wolf.
Even the series of attacks like wind blades fired by the green wolves were shattered by her single punch.
The wolf pack that had originally forced the women into a wretched state now had corpses piled up like a mountain in an instant.
The key was that they didn't sense any True Qi fluctuations from the two children, which meant they were relying purely on the strength and defense of their physical body.
"Too terrifying. Could they be Ferocious Beasts in disguise?"
The women swallowed hard, their faces full of shock.
