“What does she want that for?” old man Lin frowned, “I’ve already divided all the divine medicine among the oldest, second brother, and fifth brother, there’s no more left.”

“Are you telling me there’s not a single one left?” Mrs. Zhang looked a little unconvinced.

“There were only seven in total, that’s not a lot, right? Originally, I planned to share some with the third brother’s daughters as well, but they didn’t want any, so finally, the oldest got three, and the second and fifth brothers each took two.” old man Lin slowly explained. “These boys will be the pillars of our Liu Village in the future. We can’t treat them shabbily.”

“With Lord Willow God stationed here, surely no one would dare bully us, right?” Mrs. Zhang pursed her lips.

“Even with Lord Willow God here, we need to work hard too.” old man Lin said solemnly.

From the incident with Huo Long, he realized that although Lord Willow God would secretly protect them, he would only intervene at the crucial moment of life and death.

To truly secure their position in this Wilderness, while the greatest reliance can be on Lord Willow God, the most basic guarantee must be the strong ability of their own people.

After all, you certainly can’t bother Lord Willow God over trivial things.

Of course, besides Lord Willow God, there is also that terrifying Black Giant Python.

However, that python mostly keeps itself hidden. Everybody knows it only obeys Lord Willow God’s orders and doesn’t pay them any proper attention.

To forge steel, one must be strong themselves, perhaps Lord Willow God’s gift of the divine medicine is also an indirect expression of this idea!

Shaking his head, pushing aside the chaotic thoughts in his mind, old man Lin solemnly said:

“Wife, I know it wasn’t easy for you to give birth to Little Eight, but no matter how hard it was, we must follow the rules, right? We both know that our achievements today are thanks to Lord Willow God. Spoiling Little Eight is no big deal for us, but what if one day she accidentally offends Lord Willow God?”

“Little Eight knows her limits, it won’t come to that, will it?!” Mrs. Zhang looked uncertainly.

“Won’t it? You saw what happened today, crying and making a fuss in front of Lord Willow God, not caring if it would disturb his cultivation, you call this knowing her limits?”

Old man Lin sighed heavily, then continued, “Wife, not only do you love Little Eight, but I as her father feel the same. That’s why we need to correct some of her bad habits. Little Eight is still young, if we take action in time, she can mostly change. But if we continue to indulge her like this, sooner or later, it will cause trouble!”

Mrs. Zhang opened her mouth to object but then closed it again.

She always knew about these issues, it was clear as day, but from a mother’s perspective, she thought that Little Eight was just a child, it was normal to be a little mischievous. But now, old man Lin’s warning about offending Lord Willow God gave her cause for concern.

Just in case, if such a thing did happen, the consequences would be unbearable for anyone.

They can treat Little Eight as a child, but why should Lord Willow God?!

“What do you suggest we do about it then, old man?” Mrs. Zhang suddenly looked worried.

“It’s simple, every journey starts with a single step. We must start with the basics, at the very least, she should wash her own clothes.” old man Lin, who had been pondering this for a while, said immediately.

“Alright… Alright then!” Mrs. Zhang nodded, unusually agreeing with old man Lin’s idea.

At this moment.

Lin Xin Tong was sound asleep, and as if she had a premonition of her upcoming “miserable” fate, she suddenly woke up from her sleep. However, seeing nothing out of the ordinary in her surroundings, the little girl wiped the drool from the corner of her mouth and fell back asleep.

Time flies as fast as the flick of a finger, fleeting moments pass like clouds and smoke.

Autumn gives way to winter, time passes swiftly and unknowingly, another year goes by.

In front of Liu village.

Day and night, the continuously flowing water pass by the riverbank lined with dozens of thick cypress trees, each robust and sturdy. The leaves, having shed their autumn yellow, were falling with the gusts of the cold wind.

It was December, a season when most things wither and die. Yet the wilderness surrounding the village bristled with the vitality of lush green as ever.

In the biting cold of winter, countless flower buds had sprung from the frosty earth. Under the light of the newborn sun, they added an exotic beauty to the freezing landscape. Even the air felt warmer than usual.

Years ago, when Jiang Hui rewarded Old man Lin and others, he activated the Primary Spirit Gathering Array he had drawn.

Despite being primitive, the array indirectly affected thousands of kilometers in radius.

Liu Village was perfectly positioned on the edge of the array, and although the farther away from it, the weaker the concentration of spiritual energy, it was relatively abundant compared to other places.

Perhaps it was due to practicing the Body Tempering Scripture, or perhaps because of the sudden increase of spiritual energy in the vicinity. Old man Lin and Mrs. Zhang had not aged much in all these years, in fact, they seemed slightly younger than before.

Both of them remained sturdy and robust as ever. Lin Zhuang and Lin Chen had become even more imposing, each towering over two meters, standing out like magnificent statues of amber.

Their talents might not be outstanding, but they certainly had the stamina, working tirelessly day and night, never slacking off over the years.

Perhaps their efforts had touched the heavens. On a hunting trip, the brothers discovered several fiery red fruits in a bamboo grove.

After consuming the fruits, they achieved Completion in the Body Tempering Scripture in just a few short years. They could now exert tremendous force, exceeding tens of thousands of kilograms, a truly terrifying feat!

Lin Rui, the fifth son of the Lin Family, had also grown tremendously. Although he was nowhere near his two older brothers in strengths, he had become a young man capable of independently hunting large beasts.

If anyone had changed the most, it would certainly be Xin Tong, the eighth child of the Lin Family.

With the concerted efforts of Old man Lin and Mrs. Zhang, this formerly pampered little girl had drastically transformed, becoming unrecognisable as her former self.

Not only did her temperament settle a lot, sometimes she would even join Lin Zhuang and Lin Chen on their hunting trips.

Seeing this, Jiang Hui felt very gratified.

Besides the factor of Xin Tong’s talents, it was more that she was inherently good-natured. She had just been spoiled excessively.

Overdoing things is worse than not doing them at all. Coupled with the indulgence of Lin Zhuang and others, it had cultivated the little girl’s original selfish character.

As for Little Black, he was still the same as ever: eating after sleep, and sleeping after eating. It almost made Jiang Hui wonder if he had been the Second Brother in his previous life.

Just as Jiang Hui thought that his days would continue as such in peaceful harmony, an unexpected event occurred.

One day.

The night was dark and windy.

The forest was silent.

Jiang Hui was deeply asleep.

A roar, like lightning, suddenly echoed, jolting him awake.

The sound had a potent penetration. The roar shook the heavens, originating from the depths of the Great Wilderness. It was clearly audible even at a great distance.

Moreover,

at the unseen distance,

within the mountain range, birds and beasts ran in fear, screaming frantically, scrambling to escape towards the outskirts. Like a flood at high tide, the trembling earth shook; ancient trees snapped, and large rocks flew around. It was as if the end of the world were upon them..
