Wangchuan, in the starry sky, space formations flickered and disappeared, Plain-clothed Figure flashed among the space nodes, the speed was unbelievable.

The Divine Forbidden Great Success, the only one in ancient and modern times, a few days later, deep in the star field, in front of Great Oblivion River Star, Ning Chen appeared and stopped.

Oblivion River Starfield The largest one, Great Life Star, has existed forever and has experienced the great changes in the ancient world and still stands immortal.

After watching for a moment, the figure of Ning Chen flew out and headed towards the big star ahead.

The truly vast and boundless continent stretches more than a million miles from east to west. Ning Chen stands quietly on the land of Wangchuan, while Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy surges around it, spreading in all directions.

Co-lord of the Human Realm, the first person in human martial arts for thousands of years, has shown amazing abilities. Heaven and earth are ordered to spread endless spiritual energy, looking for that similar figure.

In the wilderness, Ning Chen closed his eyes, and in his consciousness, the faces of everyone within a thousand miles radius were constantly reflected.

Half an hour later, Ning Chen's figure disappeared and swept towards the next area.

Thousands of miles, thousands of miles, one hundred thousand miles... As time passed day by day, Ning Chen gradually traveled nearly half of the Oblivion Continent's territory, but still could not find that familiar figure.

Oblivion Continent Dongfang, Ning Chen came, looking far away, and continued to search.

After traveling through thousands of mountains, crossing thousands of rivers, and waiting for thousands of years, Ning Chen no longer knows what it means to give up, and will use the last strength of his life to find her.

A hundred thousand miles away, in an ancient small city, pedestrians were coming and going. It was not lively, but it could not be said to be deserted.

On the streets of the ancient city, in front of a small medicine shop, a woman in coarse clothes walked over, her face covered with gauze, and her face could not be seen clearly.

"He Yatou is here to give your father medicine again."

Behind the counter, the drug store manager saw the person coming and said with a smile.

"Yeah."

The woman nodded and said softly, "Dad has a cough. I'll come over and get some medicine."

When the shopkeeper heard this, he sighed softly and said, "Your father has been suffering from this disease for many years."

While talking, the shopkeeper turned around, opened three drawers, grabbed a few dollars of medicine from each drawer, and packed them together.

"Once in the morning and once in the evening, cook over slow fire, remember?" the shopkeeper reminded seriously.

"Yeah, remember."

The woman nodded, took the medicine, paid the money, turned and walked out of the medicine shop.

On the street, pedestrians walked by from time to time, and the woman carried medicinal materials and walked towards a corner of the ancient city.

To the east of the ancient city, where common people gather, there are almost no wealthy families, and their lives are dull and peaceful.

"Ahem!"

In an inconspicuous courtyard, a gray-haired old man was weaving bamboo baskets while coughing. The craftsmanship that ordinary people relied on for survival barely supported the lives of the father and daughter.

In front of the small courtyard, the woman came and saw her father working again in the courtyard. She quickly stepped forward and stopped him, saying, "Dad, just leave these tasks to me. You can go inside and lie down."

"It's almost done."

A smile appeared on the old man's face and he said, "Xiaohe, Granny Wang next door just came here again. The marriage I told you this time sounds pretty good. He is a scholar from a wealthy family. If you want to marry him, you won't have to suffer with your father."

The woman remained silent, took over the work from her father, and said softly, "I don't want to get married."

The old man heard this and sighed softly, "Daughter, you are not young anymore. You will eventually get married. Dad is the only daughter like you in this life. If I can't arrange a good home for you, how can I meet your mother?"

"Dad's illness will get better." The woman said firmly.

"I know best about my father's health. It won't get better."

The old man sighed again and said, "How about this? Dad will ask you later to find out what kind of person this Scholar Wang is. If he is a good person, my daughter might as well agree."

The woman silently put down the medicinal materials in her hand. She did not refuse, but she also did not agree.

In the evening, the woman went into the house to brew medicine. When no one was around, the woman put down her veil, and the lights danced, reflecting a stunning face.

The old man went out for a long time to find out the Scholar Wang from Granny Wang for his daughter. When he came back, his face was extremely ugly.

Seeing this, the woman walked out of the house and asked in confusion, "What's wrong with you? Dad."

"Xiaohe, we are not getting married."

The old man couldn't hide his anger and said, "That Scholar Wang is an uneducated person. He hangs around in a smoky place like a brothel all day long. I don't know how he got such talent."

The woman nodded and said, "Then I won't get married. Dad, don't be angry. Go back to the house and prepare to drink medicine."

"I'm sorry for you, daughter." The old man said with a look of shame on his face.

The woman smiled and said, "It's not hard, my daughter doesn't have to get married."

Ordinary people's simple life may be difficult, but they have their own happiness. After drinking the medicine, the old man went to bed early, and the woman cleared the table and prepared to rest.

At this moment, firelight appeared outside the small courtyard, and several young men dressed as servants came holding torches. Behind them, a pale young man in a long gown followed, with an unusually cold expression.

"Bring the people out and burn the yard." The young man said in a deep voice.

"Yes!"

Four or five young men broke in and walked quickly towards the wooden house in front.

In the house, the woman heard the noise outside, immediately put on her veil and went out to see what was going on.

"What are you going to do!"

Seeing several young men holding torches outside, the woman looked shocked and said.

"What to do?"

From behind, a young man in a long gown walked out and said in a cold voice, "Follow me back home, and you will know what to do. You are so dumbfounded that you take people away and set fire to them!"

"Yes, sir."

Two young men stepped forward, grabbed the woman's arms, and dragged her out of the courtyard. The remaining three young men locked the door, and then began to set fire to the courtyard.

In the courtyard, there were mostly bamboo baskets. Soon, even the small courtyard and the houses were all ablaze with raging fires. Waves of fire shot into the sky, illuminating the ancient city.

"Dad!"

The woman screamed and struggled continuously. However, how could the woman's strength be stronger than the man's? The two boys forcibly grabbed the woman, making it difficult for her to break free.

Under the blazing fire, the veil on the woman's face struggled to fall off, and her face was full of tears.

"That old woman didn't lie to me. She is indeed a beauty whom I feel pity for."

The young man in the long gown brightened up when he saw the woman's appearance. Such a coarse cloth garment is so beautiful without any decoration. If it is decorated with red flowers, it will be so stunning.

"From now on, you will be with me." The young man in the long gown became more and more happy as he thought about it, and laughed.

The madness under the firelight and the ruthlessness of disregarding human life further highlight the sadness of the weak.

At this moment, no one noticed that at the end of the darkness illuminated by the fire, a trace of Plain-clothed Figure appeared silently. He looked at the woman in front of him, and his eyes, which had been calm for thousands of years, moved for the first time.

The next moment, the entire ancient city was experiencing strong winds, dark clouds gathered, and heavy rain fell.

Under the rain, Plain-clothed Figure stepped forward. With everyone's shocked eyes, he reached out and brushed the woman's tearful face, and said softly, "Don't cry anymore."
