Tang Xi tugged at Pei Yunlian's sleeve and whispered, "Shouldn't we discuss this matter more carefully?"

With the martial arts tournament approaching, dealing with just a few people wouldn't cause any problems. However, according to Pei Yunlian's investigation, almost the entire village was involved in these matters.

Thinking of this, Tangxi couldn't help but remind him, "Brother You, what do you plan to do?"

After all, they were outnumbered and outmatched; the people of Sujia Village could drown them with a single spit from each of them.

Moreover, with so many people involved, it's often difficult to find evidence, and it's impossible to send the entire village to the authorities.

Tang Xi was still hesitating when she saw the doctor straighten up and slowly say, "Didn't we catch Su Youde?"

"Su Youde has done quite a lot over the years. As long as we expose his dealings with the Li family, we can naturally send these people to the authorities."

Having only recently entered the martial world, Yue Zi naturally wanted to send the bad guys to the authorities so they could receive the punishment they deserved.

So naturally, he believed whatever You Xunchun said.

Pei Yunlian had lived in the mountains since childhood and didn't understand the intricacies of the situation. Only Tang Xi noticed that something was amiss.

But the man in blue seemed to sense her confusion and immediately explained, "I have my own ways of making Su Youde confess what he has done over the years."

"The Sword Forging Manor has a great influence in the martial arts world, and I also have some reputation. At that time, even if the government officials are hesitant to act due to the influence of the Li family, they will not remain inactive."

In fact, they all knew that the Li family must have powerful backers; otherwise, how would they have dared to privately repair the ancient tomb for Li Xuan?

In Luoyun City, the Li, Sun, and Du families are the three most powerful clans, and all other families depend on them for survival.

How difficult is it to bring down the Li family?

However, seeing the trusting expressions on the faces of the three people in front of him, You Xunchun had already achieved his goal.

As for the imperial court... well, it's completely rotten.

Su Ning dutifully played the role of an innocent and naive young woman.

She stood up timidly, mustering her courage: "If any of you can avenge me, Su Ning will be eternally grateful."

Yue Zijin waved his hand: "Oh, it's nothing, Miss Su, don't worry, we will definitely take care of this for you."

Su Ning's eyes were bright. She nodded heavily and thanked them one by one.

Seeing the happy scene between the young boy and girl, You Xunchun's eyes darkened. They were just children after all, so naive.

He subtly observed the girl surrounded in the center.

The other person had fair skin, like snow, and a delicate, fragile air about them, like a camellia carefully cultivated. It was unbelievable that such a person would grow up in an obscure village.

The next morning, Su Ning followed the main characters on their way back to the village.

Having been pampered since childhood, sleeping on the ground in this desolate wilderness was extremely uncomfortable for her. She wondered how her body had grown so delicate and weak.

Even though Yue Zijin spread her outer garment on the ground, it still made her back ache and she couldn't sleep well all night.

When I woke up in the morning, even the area under my eyes was covered in dark circles.

However, it is unknown whether Yue Zijin and Pei Yunlian did not sleep all night, because when they woke up this morning, there were several horses and a carriage next to them.

Su Ning and Su Ning lifted the carriage curtain and stared blankly at the backs of the group of people riding horses.

"Xiao Qi, can't you really let me travel directly to a year in the future?" Su Ning was still indulging in unrealistic fantasies.

"Of course not. The system has performed rigorous calculations, and a year from now, the host's chances of surviving the protagonist group are almost zero."

"Don't you have a system shop? Do you have any martial arts manuals like those in wuxia novels that allow you to kill without leaving a trace?"

"Su Su, I'm a system, not a wish-granting fairy," Xiao Qi retorted helplessly. "Besides, Su Ning's body doesn't have the aptitude for martial arts, so just give up on that idea."

"Sigh, am I destined to be just a pretty face?" Hearing Su Ning's lament, Xiao Qi wanted to comfort her, but Su Ning hadn't finished speaking: "Fine, then I'll be the most beautiful face."

Xiaoqi: ……

Getting back to the main point, Xiao Qi's tone became inexplicably serious: "Su Su, the system might be undergoing an upgrade soon, and I might be forced into hibernation for a while. You must take good care of yourself."

Su Ning: "No, your system has this function? Then I won't even have anyone to talk to."

After all, she had come to realize that her storyline, which hadn't even begun yet, represented infinite randomness.

For example, she could choose not to follow the storylines that are unrelated to the main characters in the original plot, which also means that she might not live to see the time when her own storyline unfolds.

This world is called an S-class world because it is extremely dangerous.

Its background is a chaotic world. The current imperial court is on its last legs. Although it maintains a glamorous appearance, various organizations in the martial arts world are emerging one after another, and all kinds of struggles occur from time to time.

The people were filled with fear, and they could be hacked to death just by walking down the street. Therefore, force was everything.

As the saying goes, troubled times give rise to heroes.

She now possesses only beauty, yet is utterly powerless; she is truly not in control of her own destiny.

Xiao Qi also instructed, "Su Su, since your energy points are currently zero, you can't buy anything in the shop."

"Didn't I promise to compensate you? Before this hibernation, I left all my things at your house. Don't worry, this is all my secret stash of money."

"It won't disturb the Supreme God. Perhaps after this hibernation, I'll have some other uses, and then I can help you even more."

Xiaoqi's voice was somewhat excited.

Although Su Ning was disappointed that no one was there to talk to her, she wasn't too upset when she heard that the upgrade might have some other functions.

"Alright, just focus on leveling up. Don't worry, I'll take good care of myself."

After all, the main characters are capable of both fighting and healing, and they also have status, making this the best option for her to simply relax and do nothing.

But Su Ning is unaware of the power of the plot.

That is, although the main characters are reliable, they always encounter all sorts of troubles, and these troubles also implicate her.

Su Ning thought to herself, since she hadn't hurt them yet, she should take advantage of the situation. Once the plot started, she wouldn't be so kind to them anymore.

"Miss Su, are you feeling unwell?" You Xunchun's voice came from outside the carriage.

Originally, Yue Zijin wanted to drive, but You Xunchun had too many things to carry, so the task fell to him.

Outside the car, a man leaned against the door, wearing a wide-sleeved blue robe of unknown material, embroidered with bamboo patterns.

You Xunchun held a medical book in one hand and drove the carriage with the other. His eyebrows and eyes were very gentle, without any sharpness. Although he was not very old, he inexplicably inspired trust. His black hair was not tied up, but tied with a bamboo green hair ribbon and hung down his back.

A gentle breeze blew by, adding an air of serene indifference to his demeanor.

Su Ning did not lift the carriage curtain. She always felt that You Xunchun was a bit strange, so she didn't want to have too much contact with him. She simply replied, "Thank you for your concern, Doctor You. I don't feel unwell at the moment."

You Xunchun naturally sensed the aloofness in the girl's words, and simply smiled faintly, but upon closer inspection, he found that the smile lacked warmth.

Suddenly, a hand with distinct knuckles reached in from outside the curtain, holding a jade porcelain bottle. "This morning, I noticed that you looked tired and your steps were unsteady. You also made some rubbing motions. I dare to guess that you need this medicine."

Su Ning looked at the jade porcelain bottle, thought for a moment, and then accepted it: "Thank you, Doctor You, you're so kind."

When Su Ning took the bottle, she accidentally brushed against the other person's fingertip. Before she could even feel it, the other person withdrew their hand.

For a moment, the two were silent.

She examined the porcelain bottle; its texture was smooth and lustrous, indicating it was made of high-quality porcelain. When she opened it, the inside was a translucent green. Su Ning took a sniff; it had a faint scent of fresh grass, which wasn't unpleasant.

It's not that Su Ning is delicate; her body is just too sensitive. Perhaps it's to highlight the beauty and charm of the number one beauty in the martial arts world, but even the slightest roughness can cause her skin to break out in rashes.

Even in her previous life, Su Ning had never experienced this.

She's practically a porcelain doll reincarnated.

After venting her frustrations, she rolled up her sleeves, feeling a slightly cool sensation on her arms. As for the rest of her body, she could only deal with that when she returned to Sujia Village.
