The enemy's presence reappeared, and this time it was not just a simple probe, but a large-scale mobilization.

Xiaoyuehan could clearly sense that many cultivators had been lurking in the dense forest by the lake for a long time, waiting for an opportunity to strike together.

They were hiding very well, and ordinary people would definitely not notice them.

But unfortunately, they encountered someone extraordinary.

"One... two... ten, twenty."

"Twenty-one... twenty-five."

"Over ten at the second level of Qi Refining, several at the fifth level of Qi Refining, one at the tenth level of Qi Refining, and also an eagle, a first-level demonic beast."

"That's not bad."

After thoroughly understanding the enemy's situation, Xiaoyuehan breathed a sigh of relief.

There were many of them, but they were not as powerful as she had imagined. They didn't even have a single cultivator at the Foundation Building stage.

Only cultivators at the Qi Refining stage, no matter how many there were, would not be able to defeat a cultivator with true strength at the Foundation Building stage.

The strength of a cultivator at the Foundation Building stage was truly overwhelming. Not only were they more agile than those at the Qi Refining stage, but they could also use spiritual power externally.

Unless all those cultivators at the Qi Refining stage were Demonic Cultivators, or the cultivators at the Foundation Building stage were foolish enough to be outsmarted by them.

Otherwise, even if this group of people joined forces, they would not be enough for her father to practice against.

Furthermore, her Chu family had more than one cultivator at the Foundation Building stage. Her grandmother seemed to have the same cultivation level as her father.

"In that case, I don't need to take action."

Thinking in her heart, Xiaoyuehan nodded and didn't bother anymore.

Her current responsibility was to continue observing the movements of this group of people and prevent them from targeting the ordinary members of the Chu family.

As long as their first target was her father, then the unlucky ones would definitely be them.

"Dad, the forest by the lake looks so dark. Can we not go in? It seems dangerous."

In order to avoid unnecessary casualties, meticulous Xiaoyuehan decided to remind her father appropriately.

Chu Qianqiu, who was still fishing, remained silent for a while before nodding.

"Daughter, you're right."

"Alright, I'll let everyone come back first."

With a command, the Chu family members who were already prepared to take off their pants were forcibly called back by the family head.

They were already itching all over, and being called back made them even more impatient and anxious.

But in front of them, the family head's orders were not to be disobeyed. They could only stare at the hot water in their wooden barrels, longing for it.

In the deep forest.

A group of scattered bandits were now exchanging information and whispering to each other.

They were dressed in clothing made of wild animal fur, and most of them held weapons such as machetes, axes, and clubs.

These people had fierce expressions, and their faces were not clearly visible in the darkness.

They were genuine bandits, here today to make a fortune.

"Damn it, weren't these guys supposed to be taking a bath? Why did they stop?"

"I was planning to take advantage of them being separated while showering, so we could each harvest in the dark and reduce the chances of anyone escaping."

"Now that things have changed, boss, should we still go?"

Several bandits approached quickly and gathered around their leader, discussing in low voices.

A middle-aged man with a one-eyed mask and an eagle perched on his shoulder pondered for a moment before slapping the head of the comrade who spoke to him, scolding in a low voice.

"You idiot, isn't that obvious?"

"If we let the fish that's already in our hands go, what the hell am I going to eat tonight?"

"Yes... boss, what should we do next?"

"Just go straight in. We're fucking bandits, why pretend to be nice guys?"

As the leader spoke, everyone got ready.

They are all cultivators in this group, so why would they be afraid?

They don't often come to this area, and they don't believe that there are any powerful experts in these deep mountains and forests who can threaten them.

In the bandit gang of the ruined city, they are among the best. Can this group of country bumpkins who don't even know where they're going be able to withstand their attacks?

"Damn it, nobody move!"

There was a commotion in the forest.

Soon, the bandits made their move.

There were a total of twenty-five of them, surrounding the Chu family by the lake.

The Chu family members, who were originally worried about bathing, forgot about their itching when they suddenly saw the bandits.

Everyone rushed to the side of the family head, trembling in fear. They never expected something like this to happen.

"Bandits...how can there be so many bandits here?"

"Oh no, are we going to die here today?"

"These people seem to be cultivators!"

In a panic, everyone could only huddle together and turn to their leader, the family head.

None of them had weapons, and they were all tired from a day's journey, with little strength left.

On the other hand, the bandits were tall and strong, each with a sharp weapon, ready to kill.

Most importantly, the aura they were emitting didn't seem like that of ordinary people, but rather like a group of cultivators.

"Everyone, stand behind me."

At this moment, Chu Qianqiu stepped forward from the crowd.

He had already anticipated that they would be targeted by bandits, but he didn't expect things to escalate so quickly.

Looking around, he could see that all the bandits were Qi Refining stage cultivators, with considerable strength.

"So you're the leader of this group? Very well, I'll kill you first."

Seeing the leader of the fish gang step forward, the bandit leader with an eagle hanging from his shoulder also stepped forward, a fierce aura emanating from him.

"However, if you obediently hand over all your treasures, we might consider letting the women here live and serve us."

"Hahaha!"

Hearing the sinister laughter from the other side, Chu Qianqiu felt quite displeased and was ready to take action at any moment.

However, when he saw the faces of the bandits under the bonfire, he couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"Kill Matts?"

Looking at the bandits with their colorful hair and exaggerated hairstyles.

Chu Qianqiu couldn't hold it in anymore. He didn't expect there to be a "Zang Ai" family in the cultivation world.

"What the f*ck, who are you calling a Kill Matt? Are you insulting me?"

The bandit leader wearing a one-eyed mask and hair resembling green lettuce roared angrily and charged forward.

"I am the leader of the notorious bandit gang in the ruined city, a ruthless person who went solo after leaving the White Night Society. Do you have the qualifications to be arrogant in front of me?"

"Go to hell!"

The sound of killing rose, and the wind rustled through the trees.

Ren Qianxue stood behind her son, ready to support him at any time.

Chu Qianqiu waved his hand, signaling his mother to step back, while he immediately took out his Lion Roar Fist Gauntlet, no longer concealing his strength. He erupted with spiritual power and unleashed a roaring lion punch!

"Flame Fist Technique, Savage Fire!"

A fiery punch burst out, combining with the Lion Roar Fist Gauntlet to form a fierce lion of battle intent.

The charging Kill Matt gang leader was instantly covered by the fire lion, with no room to fight back. He rolled on the ground like a beast being torn apart, screaming in extreme pain.

After a while, he stopped roaring and quickly stopped moving, emitting a sizzling white smoke. As his body burned, a unique fragrance filled the air.

The other members who thought their leader would surely succeed were dumbfounded, their brains momentarily frozen.

Here, there was actually a Foundation Building stage cultivator?
