The Daughter Of Destiny Broke Off The Engagement? I Married Her Sister Instead.

These bandits must only target big prey every time!

Xiao Yuehan had already marked this eagle in her heart.

Although she had not yet cultivated, it was still easy for her to see through an ordinary monster.

After all, her soul was not simple. Even though she was weak now, she was not within the reach of an ordinary soul and could do many things that others couldn't.

Now, her family had relocated, and there were too many people. She knew it wouldn't be smooth sailing.

However, it was still daytime, so it was still safe.

At night, everyone would have to rest and set up camp, which would be the most dangerous moment.

As she gnawed on a chicken neck, she thought about strategies in her mind.

Chu Qianqiu followed his daughter's gaze and looked up at the eagle flying away in the sky, his expression serious.

"What's wrong, little girl? Do you want to eat eagle neck?"

Then he smiled and quickly concealed his expression, just pinching his daughter's cheek.

Xiao Yuehan was stunned, thinking that her father wanted to shoot down the eagle in the sky and was afraid of causing trouble, so she quickly shook her head to reject it.

"No, Daddy's chicken neck is the most delicious."

"Is that so? Then Daddy will reward you with it every day from now on!"

Xiao Yuehan: ...

...

A busy day of traveling quickly passed, and the sun set, and night fell.

After riding on horses all day, everyone was tired and needed to find a place to rest.

Although they had been traveling all day to speed up their arrival at Moon Phoenix City, most of the people present were ordinary people who would be exhausted if they didn't sleep.

Furthermore, even if they weren't tired, the horses had been running on mountain roads all day, so they were tired too. They needed to take care of the horses' feelings.

Currently, they had only traveled for a day and were still within the range of the mountains and wilderness, so they decided to camp in this dense forest tonight.

In the last light of the setting sun, piles of bonfires gradually lit up. The members of the Chu family set up temporary tents and boiled water by the fire, starting to cook dinner.

They had enough food to eat for now, but to avoid unexpected situations, they still followed the principle of frugality and roasted some wild delicacies they found in the mountains.

In the dark night, perhaps because there were many people, everyone didn't feel fear. Under the illumination of the fire, everyone was talking and laughing, discussing future scenes.

Xiao Yuehan stayed with her parents, not far from her grandparents. She stayed in the safest area.

At this time, her father was roasting a wild boar for her, applying a secret dipping sauce.

Her mother held her in her arms, trying to make her less afraid and telling her to rest after eating.

In fact, she was the least afraid person right now.

Instead, she was a little worried about everyone present and how they would deal with the bandits they might encounter next.

After all, she couldn't protect everyone right now.

"Daddy, can you tell me about the stories of Moon Phoenix City and the Sun Rising Empire?"

After contemplating for a long time, Xiao Yuehan spoke up. She wanted to first ask her father if he knew any news about the area and then estimate the possible forces nearby.

"Of course, I can tell you as a story." Chu Qianqiu smiled and began to tell the story.

"Well, the Moon Phoenix City we are going to this time is a place where merchants come and go. It is a city of the middle and lower class in the Sun Rising Empire. There are not many prominent families there, mostly small households that survive by their skills. Going to that place is more conducive to development."

"After arriving in Moon Phoenix City, we can still see a mountain range called the Ten Thousand Beast Mountains to the north of the city, which separates heaven and earth. This mountain range stretches endlessly and is inhabited by many powerful monsters. Many cultivators have lost their lives trying to capture or tame these monsters. So, in addition to the treasures of the monsters, there are also some items left behind by cultivators, giving this mountain range even greater fame. Many cultivators are both afraid and eager to explore it."

"By the way, the Ten Thousand Beast Mountains also serve as an important barrier between the Rising Sun Empire and the Falling Star Empire. If it weren't for this geographical barrier, the two empires would have long been at war over territorial disputes. However, even so, the two countries often engage in large-scale conflicts due to other minor disputes. They usually choose to bypass the mountains and fight on a different battlefield."

"Speaking of bypassing the mountains... Father, I heard that it is a relic left by an extraordinary powerhouse."

"The Ten Thousand Beast Mountains used to be a 'giant beast' that stretched for five thousand miles, but during ancient times, it was split in half by a powerful being with a sword. It is said that at that time, the powerful being did this to kill a Heavenly Demon Spider. The monster was already dead, and the mountain range was also divided into two sections, with a deep abyss created by her sword in the middle. It is rumored that her sword aura still echoes deep within the abyss, so it is called the Sword Howl Abyss or the Ghost Howl Abyss."

"The corpse of that dead demon spider is still intact and has turned into an eternal path, spanning above the abyss, serving as the border and the only bridge between the two empires. It has also become a battlefield."

...

A long narrative unfolds.

After Chu Qianqiu finishes this passage, he sees that the roasted pig is ready and hands it to his daughter.

Gu Qingxue scolds him, saying that the child is still young and shouldn't eat such things.

"It's okay. Little girl already ate my chicken neck this morning, so she should be able to eat this too."

"Eating more meat helps you grow faster and replenishes iron and protein, as well as essential amino acids... Vitamin B1, B2."

"Husband, what are you talking about? I don't understand."

"It's okay, just give our daughter some roasted pork."

"Fine, but she can only eat a little."

Xiao Yuehan: ...

As the couple bickers, Xiao Yuehan ponders in her heart, thinking about her father's words just now.

Actually, what she wanted to say was, "Father, you're off-topic. What I want to hear is not this, but the power dynamics around the Rising Sun Empire and the surrounding areas of Moon Phoenix City."

However, what her father said just now still had some meaning. The stories within reminded her of a memory from the past.

"The Ten Thousand Beast Mountains were split in half by a powerful swordsman? And they killed a spider monster?"

"This really sounds like something my disciple would do. She also came from the lower realm and told me that she had once eliminated a threat to the people by killing a formidable spider."

"It's so similar."

Chewing on the delicious roasted pig skin, Xiao Yuehan asks her father what happened to that powerful swordsman.

"Well... it is said that the powerful being eventually broke through the limitations of the heavenly path and ascended to the Immortal Realm. That is a more legendary place, where the realms are vast, and there are countless powerful beings and saints everywhere."

Chu Qianqiu's response is based on rumors recorded in some popular books.

Xiao Yuehan obediently nods, completely convinced of the specific identity of that legendary swordsman.

It really is... her disciple.

In her previous life, when she was still a powerful cultivator, although she didn't establish a sect, she did have a few female disciples.

Most of these disciples achieved great success. Some later distanced themselves and formed their own factions, but she didn't delve into it.

Some remained loyal and regarded her words as divine decrees.

Among them was that sword-wielding girl.

Back then, she saw that the girl had a good grasp of swordsmanship, and since she also practiced swordsmanship, she casually gave her some guidance. Unexpectedly, the girl made rapid progress.

Unfortunately, this disciple later entered a secret realm, and her life or death was unknown. As for herself, she was preparing to break through to become an immortal when she was ambushed and perished.

Now thinking about it, their fates were quite similar, both encountering trouble around the same time.

She just doesn't know if that girl's luck is better and if she managed to survive the secret realm.

If she did survive, she must be a prominent figure in the celestial realm by now, right?
