This voice suddenly came, full of vigor. Clearly, it came from a distance, but it seemed to ring right in their ears. It made Qin Mu, who had already been turned into an elk, have a buzzing in his ears.

He looked in the direction of the sound. There were several figures standing on the distant cliff. From the foot of the mountain to the cliff, it was about six or seven li away. Qin Mu could no longer see their faces clearly, but being able to transmit the voice so far and still be so clear, they should not be ordinary people.

Granny Si carried the basket and smiled, "Heavenly Demon? What Heavenly Demon? I'm just an ordinary person by the river. This little deer is also an ordinary deer that I raised..."

"Mu'er, run!"

When Qin Mu heard Granny Si's voice, he was stunned in his heart and wanted to speak but couldn't make a sound. He didn't want to leave, worried that Granny Si would be in danger.

"An ordinary person by the river? With such strong vitality that you can clearly transmit your voice to our ears. An ordinary old woman can't do that."

On the cliff, an old but sonorous voice sneered, "Moreover, we, the Five Elders of Lijiang River, will definitely not mistake the Heavenly Demon Creation Technique. Skinning an animal to make clothes, with all sorts of changes, such a vicious method has been seen by us. Do you still want to quibble?"

Another old man on the cliff said in a deep voice, "The Heavenly Demon Creation Technique turns people into cattle and sheep and then takes them to the market to be slaughtered and sold. You must have done this kind of thing a lot, right? Many of our seniors in the Orthodox Sect were even turned into cattle and sheep by you demons and spent their whole lives plowing the fields and eating grass! Your methods can't deceive us!"

Another old man's voice carried a touch of compassion, "The deer is also a life. You have turned its skin and soul into an evil thing like this. If we don't kill you, we don't know how many more lives will be lost in your hands. Who else should we kill if not you?"

Granny Si twisted the center of Qin Mu's (who had been turned into a deer) forehead, pulled out a silver needle, and whispered, "These old wretches can't do anything to me, but with you by my side, I still have to be distracted to take care of you. Run quickly, run back to the village!"

Qin Mu didn't hesitate any longer and immediately turned around and dashed away. He thought that he would be inconvenient to move after being turned into a deer, but when he started running, he realized that he had thought too much. Instead of feeling any discomfort from turning from a human into a deer, he ran extremely fast, as if he had been a deer by nature.

"The little demon cub still wants to escape? If we let you escape, wouldn't you bring disaster to the common people? The Five Sons of Lijiang River, this time I brought you out for training. Now that deer is the target of your training. Cut off its head and bring it back to me!"

"Yes!" Five clear voices of men and women mixed together and replied in unison.

Several figures on the cliff flashed, leaped down from the cliff, and ran down the cliff face. Their speed was faster than that of a galloping horse. When they reached the bottom of the cliff, there was a deep pool formed by the scouring of waterfalls and streams in the mountains. The five of them actually walked across the water, running all the way on the water surface towards the elk that Qin Mu had transformed into.

Granny Si's heart sank, "Spirit Body! Their attainments in the Spirit Embryo Divine Treasure are not weak. Mu'er's speed is not as fast as theirs, and he will definitely be caught up with!"

Just as she was about to stop them, four figures on the cliff came through the air and landed around her in an instant. There was still one person standing on the cliff, standing proudly and not coming over.

"The Five Elders of Lijiang River are famous figures in the Southern Border. What are you doing in the Great Wilderness?"

Granny Si rolled her eyes. Seeing that these four old men surrounded her on all sides, she cackled and said, "The Great Wilderness is very dangerous. Aren't you afraid of losing your lives here?"

The old man with a black beard, one of the Five Elders, said coldly, "We heard that the Great Wilderness is a place full of filth, and some demons and ghosts who can't survive have all taken refuge here. So the five of us, along with our disciples, have come here especially to subdue demons and exterminate evil."

"Who is the demon and who is the evil, and who will subdue and exterminate whom is still uncertain."

Granny Si carried the basket with one hand and took out a pair of scissors from the basket with the other hand. Looking like an old and muddle-headed person, she smiled and said, "I haven't stretched my muscles for a long time, but fortunately, I haven't completely forgotten my former skills. You five old devils, do you also want me to make you into clothes?"

"Demon! How dare you be arrogant in front of us? Do you even deserve to be arrogant?"

The four Elders of Lijiang River roared, moved their figures, and the four of them crossed each other and attacked Granny Si.

At this moment, Qin Mu, who was running with all his might towards the Remnant Elderly Village, heard a rumbling sound of thunder coming from behind. The thunder was accompanied by lightning. The snow-white lightning illuminated the mountains and fields, many times brighter than the sunlight!

He looked back and saw that a surging wave of qi was erupting from the place where Granny Si was standing, lifting up the grass, rocks, and several huge stones weighing thousands of catties were lifted up by the sudden strong wind and smashed outward with a howl, extremely fast!

"Will Granny be okay..."

Qin Mu's heart sank. Suddenly, he heard the sound of water splashing on the river surface. He saw two young men and women running wildly on the water surface!

The man and the woman stepped on the river water, and their figures did not sink into the river. The speed at which their feet landed and lifted was so fast that it was even much faster than his running speed. Before the river water could cover their insteps, the two of them had already left in a flash!

"These two have reached the state of walking on the waves that Grandpa Lame mentioned. I can't do it yet. Their strength is stronger than mine!"

The man and the woman walked on the waves in the middle of the river and soon overtook Qin Mu. They ran from the river surface towards the riverbank, seemingly intending to intercept him ahead.

Qin Mu looked back. There was still one person chasing after him from behind, and the other two were quickly shuttling among the mountains on his left. Their figures would occasionally leap up from the dense forest, stepping on the treetops and running with a howl. But they couldn't sustain it for long and soon had to land to catch their breath.

Even so, they would soon overtake Qin Mu and rush ahead of him.

"I can't let them intercept me! I need to get back to the village one step faster than them and let Grandpa Lame, Grandpa Ma, and the others go to save Granny!"

Qin Mu gritted his teeth, avoided the riverbank, and rushed into the forest obliquely.

Continuing to run along the riverbank would definitely be blocked. The two people in the middle of the river were too fast, and the two people running in the forest were a little slower. Therefore, rushing into the forest was the only way to escape.

"Little demon cub, you and that demon killed the deer and refined evil things. Don't think you can escape!"

Just as Qin Mu rushed into the forest, suddenly the speed of one of the two men who intercepted him in the forest suddenly increased and surpassed the other person. But it was still a step too late, and the elk transformed by Qin Mu rushed past in front of him.

"Don't worry. He can't escape!"

Ahead, the man and the woman looked calm. The woman chuckled, and her sleeves fluttered. Her speed suddenly increased, and she leaped among the treetops like a flying bird, chasing after the elk in the forest. The other man was unhurried, commanding the other three to encircle and heading towards Qin Mu.

Qin Mu ran wildly, but he still couldn't shake off these five people. Not only couldn't he shake them off, but instead, he was forced further and further away from the Remnant Elderly Village and gradually deeper into the Great Wilderness.

He had lived in the Remnant Elderly Village for fourteen or fifteen years. The farthest place he had ever left the village was no more than ten-odd li away. But now he had gone too far. The paths around him were getting more and more unfamiliar and desolate, and there was even no road anymore.

Suddenly, Qin Mu saw that there were peach blossoms everywhere in the valley ahead, and there were herds of deer living in the peach blossom forest. He quickly rushed over and mixed into the herd of deer.

Whoosh —

A fragrant breeze flashed by. The woman's sleeves fluttered, and she landed on the ground. She looked at the herd of deer in front of her and frowned.

"Sister, where is that demon cub?" Several figures landed, and a teenager about Qin Mu's age asked.

The woman pouted and said, "He mixed into the herd of deer."

"Kill all these deer!"

Several teenagers and girls rushed into the herd of deer, drew out their swords, and brutally attacked the herd of elk. Although the elk were fast, they were not faster than these Spirit Bodies who had been practicing for a long time.

These five teenagers and girls were all Spirit Bodies and had all become martial artists. Their strength was not weak. Even though the herd of elk scattered and fled, they couldn't escape their pursuit. Soon, one elk after another was slaughtered by them.

"Didn't you say that the elk are also lives?"

Suddenly, a human voice came from the chaotic herd of deer, "Granny just killed one deer, but you are killing the whole herd. Why do you still say that we are the Demonic Sect?"

"There he is!"

The woman's eyes lit up. She gathered her qi and infused the White Tiger Qi into the long sword. Golden qi radiated out, and the sword flew out of her hand and slashed towards Qin Mu in the fleeing herd of deer!

Qin Mu turned and dashed away, and the sword actually also suddenly turned and continued to stab towards him!

"What kind of martial art is this?"

Qin Mu was stunned in his mind, "Could it be a supernatural power? It doesn't seem like it. Grandpa Butcher said that supernatural powers are when martial arts are cultivated to the extreme. This woman's martial arts are far inferior to Grandpa Butcher and the others..."

The sword came from behind. The elk transformed by Qin Mu almost turned close to the ground and barely managed to dodge it. At the moment he dodged, he caught a glimpse and saw that there was a thin thread on the handle of the sword. One end of this thin thread was connected to the sword, and the other end was in the woman's hand.

This thin thread was as thin as silk and difficult to detect.
