Old Liu glanced at Xiao Wu, who was smiling.
He then turned his gaze to the three people on the ground.
He shook his head slightly, realizing his sincere feelings had been misplaced. He took out the few ropes he still had, tied them up, and made a tight knot behind their backs.
"Let's go, Xiao Wu, come with me to the village and find someone to take these three away."
Xiao Wu was a little hesitant.
I asked a question timidly.
"Are there any carrots to eat?"
"Haha, of course, of course, you can have as much as you want."
“That’s good, that’s good.
"Hehe, do you want Sister Xiaowu to help you take these three back?"
It's like the person leaving; it still has to be you.
Old Liu didn't care about this disrespectful form of address.
He quickly shook his head.
This is someone with innate full soul power. Even if they're not from his own village, as long as the village chief isn't completely stupid.
They will definitely give her this year's work-study student spot.
Moreover, they are old acquaintances.
Such a small gift is acceptable.
The two then began to walk towards Emperor Soul Village.
The village chief of Emperor Soul Village is an old man named Jess.
He was leaning on a cane.
He was hesitating at the entrance of his own village.
Seeing his old acquaintance, Old Liu, rushing over with a little girl by his side, he was quite surprised.
This guy isn't all alone.
Are you used to being alone?
Judging from the little girl's appearance, she doesn't seem to be from his village. Where did he kidnap her from?
"This is what you are doing?"
Jess asked, somewhat puzzled.
"How dare you say that? Hurry up and call some people to tie up those three bastards on the mountain."
I always ask you to discipline me, but you never listen. Now look what's happened! These three guys have gone so far as to commit murder for money, and they've even dared to bully me.
"If it weren't for this little kid, I probably wouldn't be seeing you today."
Old Liu's longbow struck Jess's shoulder hard.
！ (ˊωˋ*)！
What's wrong with you?! It hurts, you know!
The third beast actually did such a thing? Where are they tied up? I'll have someone take them away immediately.
"Hmph, it's up in the mountains. Just follow that path up."
As he spoke, Old Liu pointed to Xiao Wu standing to the side.
"This is my savior, Jess. She's a being with innate full soul power, and she came here because of some changes in her family..."
Looking at Xiao Wu's disheveled appearance, Jess made a rough guess about her situation.
He shook his head with pity and gave Xiao Wu a comforting look.
He tried to reach out and touch her head, but she dodged him.
He was slightly taken aback, but didn't dwell on such a trivial matter.
"Little girl, are you truly born with full soul power?"
"Of course, Sister Xiaowu's skills are far greater than you can imagine."
Xiao Wu gently rubbed the rabbit in her arms.
It proudly raised its head and hummed.
Jess's eyes lit up.
How long has it been since my village produced a Soul Master?
But now one has fallen from the sky.
Moreover, both parents are deceased, and he has no car or house...
Why not forge a good relationship?
So they gave her this year's work-study spot so she could go to the Martial Soul Academy. They figured that once she grew up, she might even bring benefits to her village.
Look at Old Liu smiling to the side.
Jess secretly thought to himself that this guy probably had the same idea.
He brought her to his side.
"Little girl, what is your martial soul?"
"Bunny!"
A hint of disappointment flashed in Jess's eyes, but he was actually filled with more surprise.
After all, even if it's just an ordinary rabbit martial soul.
Because she was born with full soul power, she was basically already a Soul Master. Moreover, according to those Soul Masters, even if the Martial Soul is not top-tier, the higher the initial innate soul power, the better one's future growth will be.
Therefore, she is simply a future big sister who fell from the sky!
The hope for the revitalization of the village rests on her shoulders.
Although it was simply because she saved Old Liu that she was giving back as she deserved it.
Of course, there's always some hope, isn't there?
Of course, he was too embarrassed to say it out loud.
We can only hope that Xiao Wu will realize this herself.
However, the oblivious Xiao Wu couldn't comprehend the thoughts of these hardworking people.
This is probably why she never came to Emperor Soul Village again after that.
With her personality, she definitely wouldn't care about these things.
I eventually forgot about it.
In fact, the source of Xiao Wu's part-time job quota in the original work is highly controversial.
However, the quota for work-study students only existed in those kinds of villages.
After all, the gentlemen in the city don't need such quotas.
One possible explanation for Xiao Wu receiving the spot is that she did something good and was rewarded by the villagers.
"Old Liu, you make proper arrangements for this young girl first. I'll take some men and go capture those three idiots."
Inside the somewhat simple wooden house, Xiao Wu's eyes sparkled.
He propped himself up on the table and took a deep breath of the food on the table.
Especially that dish of stir-fried carrots and white radishes.
It really whetted her appetite.
And there's also that Pearl, Jade, and White Jade Soup.
It suits my taste perfectly.
"Awoo—"
"Smash it, smash it—"
Xiao Wu's complete lack of concern for her eating manners amused Old Liu.
I wish I had a granddaughter like that.
"Xiao Wu, why don't you stay here with us for now? We still have a month before we go to the Martial Soul Academy."
We'll take you there directly then, thinking that there's no one in the village who could cause trouble.
Even if someone does get accepted, they won't be nearly as qualified as you. Don't worry, I can definitely get you accepted.
Xiao Wu wiped the vegetables off her face.
"Martial Soul Academy? What exactly is that? Is there food there? Are there carrots?"
Old Liu chuckled. How many days had this little girl been starving? Why was she so eager for food?
