"There is a tunnel here, dug by my companions," Yun Sheng vaguely explained the origin of the tunnel. At this moment, the villagers were extremely impressed by Yun Sheng. None of them resisted anymore, and they followed Yun Sheng’s instructions, one by one, descending into the tunnel. When it was the turn of Liu Zi and his father, Liu Zi’s father hesitated for a moment, then turned around, "Little Divine Doctor, I’m worried about my wife, I want to go with her. You also need someone to back you up, I used to be a hunter and know some boxing skills, I’ll stay and help you." Upon hearing this, Liu Zi also asked to stay. "Well, Liu Zi, let’s have Uncle stay. You and the rest of the villagers keep moving along the tunnel. Once you reach a safe place, head directly towards Nanya Town, my people will meet you halfway," Yun Sheng was deeply moved by the profound affection of Liu Zi’s parents, knowing well that Liu Zi’s father would definitely not want to leave. After some persuading, Liu Zi reluctantly entered the tunnel. In just half an hour, the mine was empty of people, leaving only about twenty bodies of mysterious people and demon beasts on the ground. Yun Sheng walked forward and tore off the mask from one of the mysterious individuals. Liu Zi’s father searched the body and surprisingly found a token. Yun Sheng glanced at the token and saw the character "Shao" written on it. She could not identify the exact origin of the token and decided to keep it for now. "Uncle, do you know how to set up traps? Later, when you and I sneak out..." Yun Sheng remembered she still had a few beast traps in her storage ring previously brought from Banana Leaf Village. Yun Sheng, along with her Fire Lizard, and Liu Zi’s father stealthily made their way out. Although they had successfully moved over two hundred people, there were still over a hundred villagers remaining outside near the livestock sheds, including Liu Zi’s mother. Yun Sheng instructed Liu Zi’s father to wear the clothes of the mysterious person and pretended to lead her outside. Liu Zi’s father walked out of the mine convincingly. Outside the mine, a few mysterious people were guarding, waiting for the next batch to come for the shift change. The people outside the mine were completely unaware of the riot that had taken place inside. "What did this kid do?" Seeing the dejected Yun Sheng, the guard asked. "Hands were not clean, secretly kept a piece of Purple Gold Ore. In the past, he would have been beaten to death, but now there’s a shortage of hands, just take him to the livestock sheds," Liu Zi’s father adeptly adapted, glaring fiercely at Yun Sheng. "Go on, also hurry up the kitchen staff, the guys on the next shift are half a day late, do they want to starve us to death," the man guarding the mine waved his hand impatiently, unaware that the kitchen staff, the mysterious group, had already been poisoned by Poison Nutmeg and had fainted. "Understood, brother, you’ve worked hard," Liu Zi’s father pushed Yun Sheng, quickly walking towards the direction of the kitchen. On the way, Yun Sheng suddenly noticed that the Thunder Burst Magic Arrays, which were originally full of thunderous power, had all malfunctioned. "Truly heaven assists us," Yun Sheng couldn’t help but feel secretly delighted. Everything today was unbelievably smooth, as if someone was secretly helping her. Yun Sheng had Liu Zi’s father set up several beast traps along the way. The two arrived at the kitchen, and as they pushed open the door, a swooshing blade wind could be heard near their ears. "Uncle, be careful," Yun Sheng immediately pulled out her Magic Wand, and the Wind Magic Element deflected the incoming blade wind. "My child’s mother, it’s us," Liu Zi’s father took a closer look and saw Liu Zi’s mother and a group of village women and neighbors wielding kitchen knives, gathered at the kitchen door. He hastily tore off the mask. That slash just now was swung by Sixth Son’s mother; only after she swung it did she see that it was the Little Divine Doctor and her own husband. These women, who usually couldn’t even kill a chicken, had been ignited with a heroic spirit after going through life-and-death training. They held kitchen knives with a ferocious look ready to fight to the death, making Yun Sheng, who was still somewhat anxious, both cry and laugh at the situation. "You scared me to death, father of my child. I thought they were accomplices of those villains. Following the Little Divine Doctor’s instructions, I poisoned them all," Sixth Son’s mother said while patting her chest, pointing behind her. Sure enough, behind her, dozens of mysterious people lay collapsed. Yun Sheng’s gaze turned cold, and she had Sixth Son’s father go up and slit each of their throats with a knife. She had no sympathy for these villains. Yun Sheng calculated that, including those killed earlier, they had already dealt with at least half of the mysterious people in the mine area. The most troublesome now were still the mysterious person with the highest cultivation among the small leaders and the siblings from the Xuan Family in the mine area. "Everyone, don’t panic. Your families and children are all safe. Do not leave the mess hall for now. Auntie, do you know where this small leader and the Xuan siblings are staying?" Yun Sheng asked Sixth Son’s mother. "I know. At this time every day, a few of us kitchen maids and I bring meals to them," said Sixth Son’s mother, feeling relieved after hearing that Sixth Son was safely out. "Then, I’ll disguise myself as a kitchen maid and go with you, Auntie," Yun Sheng quickly changed into the attire of a kitchen maid. Each carrying a heavy food box, she and Sixth Son’s mother headed towards the residence of the leader and the Xuan siblings. The two of them walked on, heads down, and crossed most of the mining area until they reached a tent that was temporarily set up. The tent was lit by night pearls, and inside was only the mysterious person leader; there was no sight of the Xuan siblings. The mysterious person keeping watch outside seemed normal; obviously, they hadn’t realized yet what had happened inside the mine. "Sir, here is today’s meal," Sixth Son’s mother put down the food box. "Hold on, why haven’t I seen you before?!" The small leader of the mysterious people was cautious. He eyed Yun Sheng, noting her beautiful face and fair skin, and suddenly grabbed her hand. Due to practicing the Marrow Jade Technique, Yun Sheng’s hands were delicate and tender, starkly different from the rough hands of ordinary village women; the leader recognized the difference in Yun Sheng’s appearance at a glance. "Sir! Trouble!" Several mysterious people rushed in from outside. "There’s a problem with the Magic Array!" "What?" The leader was startled and released Yun Sheng’s hand. Could it be that the issue with those Thunderstorm Magic Arrays had been discovered by them? Yun Sheng had noticed earlier that when she and Sixth Son and others were brought back to the mine area, there were quite a few Mages around. But in recent days, she had hardly seen any Mages in the mine area, seemingly for some special reason, all the Mages had been reassigned elsewhere. This was also why these mysterious individuals, who seemed to be ordinary Martial Artists, hadn’t noticed that the Magic Arrays were tampered with. Upon hearing this, Yun Sheng realized that the Magic Array they mentioned was not the Thunderstorm Magic Arrays, but the Teleportation Magic Array for transporting Purple Gold Ore, which belongs to the Space-Time Attribute. **Thank you Mei Die and Smoke Rings for the reward, I will try hard to write, the heroine will grow up, school is starting, remember to come back and see me on the weekends, the extra updates owed from the rewards will be accumulated and then exploded back in return**
