Chapter 12972 Mysterious Creature
Now, Ling Xiao just wanted to find those bastards as soon as possible and make them pay for their actions. At the same time, he also wanted to take good care of Ali, so that she could get out of this shadow as soon as possible and return to her lively and cheerful self.

"Xiao'er," Jiang Xiruo called softly, her voice full of love and care. She gently stroked Ling Xiao's slightly messy hair, as if this could soothe the waves in his heart. "Don't blame yourself, child. The little girl is safe and sound, which is the greatest luck God has given us. Seeing that she is okay, you should feel relieved."

Her eyes revealed deep worry and reluctance, but more of encouragement and support for Ling Xiao. Jiang Xiruo gently stroked Ling Xiao's head, and the warmth penetrated his skin and went straight to his heart, giving him silent comfort.

"By the way," she changed the subject, her tone carrying a hint of doubt and curiosity, "It is rumored that you have a treasure, and that it was given to you by me, your mother. This really confuses me. Why can't I remember when I gave you such a treasure?"

Her brows were slightly furrowed, and there was a searching light in her eyes, as if she wanted to get an answer from Ling Xiao.

Hearing this, Ling Xiao curled up a bitter smile. He knew very well how much trouble the existence of this treasure had brought him.

"Mom, those people were just spreading rumors. However, I do have an extraordinary treasure on me. If it weren't for it, I would have been killed by those greedy people." His words revealed a hint of helplessness and emotion, as if he was recalling the thrilling past.

Jiang Xiruo felt mixed emotions when she heard this. She was a little relieved that her son had such a treasure, because it might protect him at a critical moment; but she was more worried and uneasy.

She knew that such a treasure would inevitably attract the covetousness and competition of countless people, and her son's future path would become even more bumpy and difficult.

"Alas," she sighed, her tone full of helplessness and worry, "I don't know if this is a blessing or a curse. Xiao'er, now that you have such a treasure, you must be prepared to face all challenges. This world is dangerous and people's hearts are unpredictable, so you have to be more careful."

Her words were full of concern and exhortations for her son, as if she wanted to pour all her motherly love into this moment.

"Mom, please don't worry anymore," Ling Xiao's lips curled up into a gentle smile, his eyes flashing with determination and relief, "If it's a blessing, it's not a disaster. If it's a disaster, it can't be avoided. Since it has already happened, no matter how much we worry about it, it will only add to our troubles. It's better to relax and believe that everything has its own destiny."

There was a sense of detachment and open-mindedness in his words, as if he had already ignored the disturbances in the outside world.

After saying that, he turned to face everyone and waved his hand lightly. The Thirteen Demon Generals, Tongtong and Ali gradually became blurred as he moved and finally disappeared from the spot. They were obviously brought into the mysterious magic needle space by him.

There, they can recover in peace and prepare for the challenges ahead.

Ling Xiao knew that hiding was not a long-term solution. Sooner or later, the enemy would realize the backlash brought about by his reliance on that powerful treasure and launch a more fierce attack on him.

Therefore, he made a decision: instead of waiting passively, he should take the initiative and use this time to make himself stronger to deal with future challenges.

On the other side, Jiang Xiruo and Jiang Xiqing exchanged complicated glances. Without saying anything, their feelings towards each other were clear. They walked aside silently and began to heal their wounds. They knew that only if they recovered their strength as soon as possible could they provide more help and support to Ling Xiao in the days to come.

Everything around seems to be immersed in a quiet and tense atmosphere, and everyone's heart is full of uncertainty and expectations about the future. However, beneath this seemingly calm surface, there is an unknown undercurrent.

In the deep, dark fog of the mysterious area, a pair of scarlet eyes are silently watching everything here.

Greed and cunning flashed in its eyes, as if it would jump out of the darkness at any time and launch a fatal attack on everything here. But what was puzzling was that it did not take action immediately, but just watched quietly, as if waiting for a more appropriate time.

Such a scene made people worry about the safety of Ling Xiao and others. However, they seemed unaware of the hidden danger and were still immersed in their own recovery and preparation.

……

Not long after, seven figures quietly arrived at the edge of the Mysterious Island Adventure Zone, that area bordering the Mysterious Zone, shrouded in clouds and mist and full of dangers.

These seven people are all powerful Tongtian realm masters with profound cultivation and majestic aura. Their appearance seems to freeze the air around them, revealing a pressure that should not be underestimated.

Among these seven people, three warriors were wearing the iconic costumes of the Jiang family, and their fluttering sleeves revealed the family's unique dignity and majesty.

Their eyes were full of determination and resoluteness, and it was obvious that the purpose of this trip was extraordinary. The other four people were from the Ji family. They were also dressed in extraordinary clothes, and their every move revealed the arrogance and coldness unique to the Ji family.

Among these seven people, Jiang Lianheng's figure was particularly eye-catching. After a period of recuperation and recovery, he seemed to have recovered almost completely, and even his arm, which had withered due to severe injuries, had miraculously recovered to its original state.

This amazing recovery speed makes people wonder whether he has mastered some secret method or received help from some miraculous thing. After all, according to common sense, it is almost impossible to recover from such a serious injury in a short period of time.

Next to Jiang Lianheng stood an old man, he was the ancestor of the Jiang family - Jiang Yuan. The image of the old man Jiang Yuan was very vivid, under his bald head and white hair, was a face full of traces of time. Although his body was as thin as a stick, his deep eyes revealed a gloomy and terrifying aura, as if he could see into people's hearts, making people dare not look directly at him.

A long black snake was wrapped around his waist, and the snake was spitting out its tongue from time to time, making a hissing sound, which complemented the strange aura emanating from Jiang Yuan, giving people a chilling feeling.

As for the Ji family, the leader was Ji Chong, the father of Ji Wuming. He had a stern face and his eyes were full of anger and determination. It was obvious that he came here to avenge his son Ji Wuming.

Ji Chong's aura was so majestic that every step he took seemed to step on everyone's heartstrings, making people feel a strong sense of oppression. His arrival undoubtedly added a bit of tension and anticipation to the upcoming contest.
