“Old Five, will this be what we need?” Old Fu asked.
“Not necessarily, we'll take it and see,” the man replied.
Although I was curious about what they needed, I felt it was not the right time to ask. Asking too much could raise suspicion, especially if we wanted the same thing.
“Little girl, what are you here for?” Old Fu suddenly asked me.
“Not sure, just hoping for some luck to find something small to sell for my brother's medicine,” I replied with a sincere smile.
“You're quite a sensible child. If it weren't for us, do you know how dangerous it is to come here alone?” Old Fu shook his head, revealing some concern typical of an elder.
“Dangerous,” Ananda echoed with two words.
“Ha ha, see, even Ananda knows it's dangerous,” Old Fu laughed.
I smiled and nodded, but in my heart, I thought that knowing it's dangerous and still bringing a child along meant this child was not simple; they were likely a formidable character.
“Form a line,” One-Armed Man said.
Then the elder Swiftly pulled the child in front of One-Armed Man, while I was left at the back of the line. I hesitated for a moment, unsure whether to move or not.
“Stay there and don't move,” One-Armed Man suddenly said.
I realized he was talking to me, so I stopped moving.
“What is it?” I asked Xiao Yin.
“It’s not the Beast Inner Pill, but it’s quite rare—”
"Staff, it's a staff!" Old Fu suddenly shouted.
I don't have much knowledge about weapons, and I felt this staff couldn't compare to my Bone Flute, nor did I think much of it. However, Old Fu seemed very excited and eager for it.
"Ananda, get it for Grandpa! If anyone tries to take it, just eliminate them!"
I couldn't help but break into a sweat. Could this kid really be some kind of fierce beast? Is he that powerful?!
Here it comes! A ball of white light rushed down from the horizon at high speed. The surroundings fell silent, brimming with tension. Even so, I could tell that many wary eyes were focused on the three figures in front of me. It seemed their team was quite formidable, but the Tree Enemy wouldn't be lacking either.
"Ananda, go!" Old Fu shouted.
In an instant, Ananda vanished from his spot with incredible explosive power. By the time I realized what had happened, he had already collided with the ball of white light.
"Hiss—"
Including myself, there were continuous gasps around us. This was just too terrifying.
Not to mention trying to fight against a stone with an egg; this was simply using flesh to withstand a cannon—an impossible feat. The power of that white light was so immense that I could feel it from a distance. How could Ananda possibly confront it head-on?!
However, seeing that Grandpa and Uncle had no reaction, my anxiousness was pointless. I simply widened my eyes and continued watching.
Ananda extended his arm, resembling a lotus root, effortlessly piercing through the white light. When he pulled back, a staff taller than him by three heads was firmly grasped in his hand.
"...Xiao Yin, what kind of team did you get me?"
"Isn't it great to be this strong?"
"Great? What are you talking about! If our ultimate goals are the same, how can I compete with them?! If even a child is this strong, what about those two adults?!"
"It can't be that coincidental."
"Hopefully, you can say it right this time."
I lowered my eyelids; now was not the time to think about this. The people around us were already restless, moving closer.
Ananda quickly returned to the group, extending her delicate little hand to pass the staff to Old Buddy.
"Hahaha, good child." Old Buddy took the staff, continuously praising it without paying any attention to the surrounding atmosphere.
I didn't believe they hadn't seen it.
"Old Buddy, give me the staff!" Sure enough, trouble had arrived.
The hesitant characters that had been surrounding us immediately stepped aside. The newcomer had a grim expression and was wielding a large knife, looking quite formidable, with several others following behind him; they seemed to be a team.
Old Buddy merely glanced at them and continued to admire the staff he had just received.
"Ananda, what did Grandpa say?" he then casually asked.
"Steal, destroy," Ananda replied.
"That's right, that's how it's done." Old Buddy nodded in approval.
"Old Buddy, I've never seen you before. Since you don't know our status, I'll spare your old life. Hurry up and bring the staff to me." As he spoke, the man with the knife took a few steps forward.
I thought so; they must not have encountered us before. Otherwise, how could they be so arrogant? It seemed that these three were also newcomers like me.
"Ah!" As soon as he finished speaking, Big Sword Man fell to the ground instantly, his eyes wide open with shock, his eyeball rolling on the ground.
It was Ananda! Her fist had once again easily penetrated the man's body. After all, if she wasn't afraid of such a strong light, why would she fear a mere body?
The teammates of Big Sword Man instantly erupted in fury, thinking they had underestimated their opponent and allowed a child to take advantage. Without further thought, they charged toward us!
I didn't have time to defend myself. Ananda was like a nimble little leopard, darting in front of them in just a few steps, striking once—yes, just once!
The opponents fell one after another, and the few remaining looked at Ananda in terror. At that moment, Ananda was more terrifying than a demon; anyone who came into contact with him met a gruesome end!
I was wrong; Ananda was not like a leopard at all; he was simply a killing machine!
"That's enough, Ananda," One-Armed Man said, stepping in to stop him.
"Old Five, there are still some left to kill," Fu Lao said with a frown of dissatisfaction.
"Don't let him do this too often," the One-Armed Man snorted coldly.
Fu Lao didn't dare to say more and turned away sulkily.
"Is there anyone else who is unconvinced? You can come to me," One-Armed Man said.
Silence enveloped the area as many began to leave. Indeed, it was pointless to stay here; it would be better to go somewhere else and try their luck.
"Xiao Yin, why do you think they agreed to let me join even though they are so strong?"
I initially thought they valued my defensive abilities, especially since Pure Sound's power is formidable. However, given the current situation, it seemed they wouldn't have any opponents even without me.
