The huge long sword pierced the sky. The middle-aged man left with the sword a few years ago, and now he is also returning with the sword.

Like a ray of light piercing through the sky, it landed in the mountains in an instant, outside the gate of the sect.

The formations that had been activated around the sect did not seem to notice the middle-aged man's appearance, and there was no reaction.

Of course, or it can also be said that it is these formations that know that the middle-aged man is not an enemy or an intruder.

In short, the return of the middle-aged man, just like when he left before, did not cause much disturbance.

However, for the sudden return of middle-aged people at this time, Li Yue, who has quietly practiced for several years, is undoubtedly the most concerned.

Although I know that the middle-aged people who left will definitely return.

But Li Yue did not expect that he would return suddenly at this moment.

What's more, what Li Yue didn't expect was that the middle-aged man was alone when he left, but there was one more middle-aged man who returned here.

At this time, returning to the mountain sect together with the middle-aged man was a child who looked less than a few years old.

Judging from the clothes he was wearing, he looked like a little homeless beggar.

Not only does it look messy, there are even many holes in the clothes.

But it can be vaguely seen that she is a little girl.

Li Yue didn't even need to guess, he could tell that she should have been a child of a poor family before.

Or more likely, an orphan who lived on the streets since childhood.

A little girl who is less than a few years old will lose the love of her parents and live on the streets since she was a child.

Even Li Yue couldn't help feeling a little sympathy in his heart at this moment.

Or maybe this middle-aged man brought her back here because she also had the same sympathy for this little girl.

Li Yue thought this in his mind, and couldn't help but have a better impression of this middle-aged man.

Although Li Yue knew clearly that even on the peaceful earth where he lived before, the same thing could not be completely avoided.

Not to mention in this special world full of unknown forces.

As we all know, in troubled times, the lives of ordinary people are even more difficult.

All kinds of things that make people feel sympathetic often happen.

And in this world where practitioners exist, peace is even more difficult to come by, and it may be impossible to avoid the situation of people being displaced since childhood.

This situation is something that cannot be changed by one person.

Therefore, Li Yue is not surprised that there will be children living on the streets since childhood in this world!

However, Li Yue was naturally a little surprised by this middle-aged man who was a cultivator with extraordinary power and could also be compassionate.

After all, in Li Yue's impression, in this world with a system of cultivating immortals, cultivators should not care much about the lives of mortals.

It's just that the world doesn't seem to be like this at this time, at least not for this middle-aged man!

……

The little girl came with the middle-aged man and wielded a sword.

Perhaps this way of flying in the air is full of great shock to a little girl who is an ordinary person and has lived on the street since she was a child.

Therefore, ever since he landed on the ground from the air, the child has been following behind the middle-aged man, as if his heart was full of fear of the unknown.

However, perhaps because she has experienced a difficult life that ordinary people can't imagine since she was a child, the little girl's eyes are also full of determination.

She may be very clear that no matter what the situation she faces next, it may be stronger than continuing to wander on the streets, and even starving to death because she cannot find food one day.

Therefore, although the situation in front of me is full of fear of the unknown.

But she still followed the middle-aged man closely, as if she was afraid that if she stopped, the middle-aged man would disappear from her sight.

At this time, although the middle-aged man brought the little girl back to the mountains.

But it seemed that he completely ignored the existence of the little girl behind him.

Just like before, walk up the tall steps like white jade!

His speed is not very fast, and most people can easily keep up, but this is only for normal adults.

For a little girl who is only a few years old and may have been hungry for a long time before, it is a little difficult to keep up with him.

However, perhaps because of her previous life experiences, although the little girl is less than ten years old, she has a strong will comparable to that of an adult.

So even for her, it is very difficult to keep up with the pace of middle-aged people.

But she didn't think about giving up at all, and she wasn't born at all, so the middle-aged man slowed down and waited for her.

She just tried her best to follow the middle-aged man in front of her without stopping.

It seemed as if she would lose her middle-aged figure if she paused for just a moment.

Just like that, the middle-aged man walked slowly on the stone steps like last time, as if there was no one there.

And behind him, a little girl, step by step, just seemed to feel very difficult to follow him, walking upwards.

For a normal adult, it would be very difficult for a normal adult to walk up the stone steps that are hundreds of feet high.

But for a middle-aged man with great strength, it's nothing to worry about.

However, for the malnourished little girl behind him, it was almost impossible to climb such high steps without stopping.

……

Slowly, the little girl's steps became more and more difficult.

It seems that every step I take, I have to bear great pain and powerlessness.

And the middle-aged man in front of her seemed to be completely unaware of this, and the pace under her feet was still the same as before, without any sign of slowing down.

However, the little girl's thin body seemed to be about to collapse due to weakness in the next moment.

But the firmness in her eyes still hasn't weakened in the slightest.

She strode forward with difficulty, following behind the middle-aged man, as if she had no intention of stopping the middle-aged man and waiting for her to take a rest.

Even Li Yue, who had been observing all this with his perception, couldn't help being surprised by the little girl's firm will.

However, the hundred-foot-high steps were only half climbed at this time.

There is still a long way to go before fully climbing the steps.

And Li Yue had discovered at this time that although the little girl's will was very strong, with her thin physique at this time, it was almost impossible to truly climb such a high level in one go.

What's more, she has to speed up her pace at this time to keep up with the middle-aged man in front of her.

Even at this moment, the little girl is no longer moving forward with strength, but with firm will.
