In a pavilion in the backyard of the Jiang Mansion.
Li Sushang was sitting upright with a letter in her hand.
Beside her were Yan’er and Liu’er.
The three of them looked a little upset.
Li Sushang’s eyes were a little blurry.
Yan’er and Liu’er were not as lively as they usually were.
“Yan’er, Liu’er!”
Jiang Ping’s magnetic voice suddenly sounded.
Yan’er and Liu’er, whose heads were lying on the table, instantly bounced up.
“Dad!”
The two girls shouted in unison and they ran toward Jiang Ping.
Jiang Ping squatted down, and the two girls jumped into his arms.
“Dad!”
Liu’er used her head to rub against Jiang Ping’s shoulder.
Then, with a pair of sparkling, big black eyes, she stared at Jiang Ping and said pitifully, “Dad, big sister doesn’t want us anymore.”
Jiang Ping wanted to kiss her face when he saw her cute look.
However, he was worried about Wan’er and felt a little uncomfortable when he heard what Liu’er said.
He forced a smile and said, “Liu’er, don’t think too much. Why would big sister not want us?”
“As long as you’re obedient, big sister will like you. Are you obedient, Liu’er?”
“I am obedient! I like big sister too. Dad, can you get big sister to come back?”
When Jiang Ping heard this, he laughed from the bottom of his heart.
Just as he was about to talk, Yan’er spoke up.
“Hmph, big sister was kidnapped by that scoundrel!”
Yan’er pouted and said with a dissatisfied face.
Liu’er’s face instantly turned pale as she muttered.
“No, it’s not true!”
“Humph, that’s right. She must have been kidnapped by that Old Uncle Lei.”
Yan’er didn’t know exactly what happened that night.
She was quick-witted to realize that something was not right.
Alhough Jiang Ping told them the next day that Lei Jingyun had left because something had happened at his home, she noticed that Wan’er was acting a little strangely these two days.
Moreover, Wan’er ran away from home today. It was natural that she associated this with Lei Jingyun.
Jiang Ping was a little surprised when he heard her words.
Because his first reaction was the same as Yan’er’s.
But Yan’er was only a five or six-year-old little girl.
As expected, his own daughter was very precocious.
Jiang Ping sighed and said with a smile, “Alright, Yan’er, Liu’er, don’t worry about it.”
“I will find your sister and bring her back.”
As Jiang Ping said that, he walked into the pavilion.
After putting the two girls down, Jiang Ping took the envelope from Li Sushang.
There were a few big words written on the envelope, addressing it to Jiang Ping.
Jiang Ping tore open the seal and took out the letter.
There were a few lines of crooked, messy handwriting on the letter.
Jiang Ping couldn’t help but secretly complain about his daughter’s handwriting.
It was really a waste of time!
Li Sushang looked at Jiang Ping’s furrowed brows and panicked.
“What’s wrong? Is Wan’er in danger?”
“Don’t just read it yourself. Tell me about it too!”
Li Sushang was really worried about Wan’er. In a moment of desperation, she had forgotten about her manners.
When Jiang Ping heard what Li Sushang said, he handed the letter to her.
He heaved a sigh of relief and said, “It’s not a big deal. Wan’er just feels that she has become stronger.”
“So, she plans to go to the demonic wolf mountain range to temper herself.”
“She also said in her letter that we don’t need to worry too much.”
“How can we not worry? She is just a little girl.”
Li Sushang felt anxious and uneasy.
“This girl is too much. How can she…”
“It’s alright. There are only ordinary beasts at the demonic wolf mountain range. They can’t hurt Wan’er at all.”
“But I still have to make a trip personally to bring Wan’er back safely.”
Jiang Ping sighed and said slowly.
“While I’m away, I’ll leave Yan’er and Liu’er to you.”
“Don’t worry, I’ll take good care of them.”
Li Sushang felt much more at ease after hearing Jiang Ping’s words.
Then, she ridiculed Jiang Ping playfully.
“But you’re really too much. You even deliberately made that expression to scare me just now.”
Jiang Ping was stunned for a moment before he realized what she meant.
He smiled and said, “You’ll know why I’m frowning after you read Wan’er’s letter.”
Li Sushang quickly opened the letter, and her face instantly fell.
‘Damn! Why is Wan’er’s handwriting getting from bad to worse?’ Li Sushang thought.
…
Demonic wolf mountain range.
The mountain range spanned over two hundred miles.
The ancient trees on the mountain were verdant and lush.
It was a beautiful and vibrant place.
But everyone nearby knew that it was only beautiful and vibrant in appearance.
In reality, the demonic wolf mountain range was fraught with danger, and every step was frightening.
Every nook and cranny was filled with ferocious beasts that were desperate for food.
If an ordinary person were to rashly enter the demonic wolf mountain range, they would definitely end up as a corpse.
Moreover, there were rumors that there was a demon wolf in the depths of the demonic wolf mountain range.
It was not an ordinary beast. It was a demon beast that could kill cultivators!
The nearby villages had also organized hunting teams to go deep into the demonic wolf mountain range.
In the end, they never came back, and no one knew if they were alive or dead.
The rumors of the demon wolf in the depths of the demonic wolf mountain range were deeply rooted in people’s hearts.
Now, no one in the vicinity dared to go deep into it.
However, the danger was bound to be accompanied by opportunity.
Although the demonic wolf mountain range was dangerous, it also had many valuable things.
In the outer area of the mountain range, there were still many people hunting for treasures.
Jiang Wan’er followed a team from Xiaoyu Town there. They wanted to go to the outer area of the demonic wolf mountain range to collect herbs.
However, upon arriving at the demonic wolf mountain range, Wan’er expressed her gratitude, and then she sneaked into the mountain alone.
At this moment, a petite figure was walking through the dense forest alone.
Wan’er was still dressed in her bright red clothes. She even had a dagger with her.
She looked around and carefully walked forward while mumbling to herself.
“Don’t be afraid. You can do it.”
“You can kill a wolf with one palm and a tiger with one punch!”
“You can’t be afraid. Otherwise, you won’t be able to increase your strength.”
“If you’re afraid, you won’t be able to protect your father and sisters.”
“If there are bad people in the future, we’ll see if we can reason it out with them.”
“If they’re as reasonable as that old man, we’ll let my father reason with them.”
“If they’re unreasonable, I’ll use fists to talk to them!”
Wan’er kept cheering herself on.
Although she was very confident in her ability, this was, after all, the first time she went out alone.
She couldn’t help but feel afraid in this demonic wolf mountain range that was filled with fierce beasts.
“Roar!”
Just as Wan’er was cheering herself on, the forest suddenly began to shake.
A thunderous tiger’s roar came from afar.
The roar shook the trees all over the mountain.
Wan’er suddenly shivered and looked in the direction of the sound.
Two conflicting expressions appeared in her eyes.
“Hmph, who’s afraid of who!”
“Even if you’re a big tiger, I’ll beat you into a pulp!”
After a long while, Wan’er finally made a decision.
Didn’t she come to the demonic wolf mountain range to train herself?
She was her father’s eldest daughter. She would not disgrace her father!
Wan’er clenched her fists and walked towards the direction of the tiger’s roar.
