OMG! I Transmigrated into Four Books at the Same Time!

Shi Nian looked at the pitiful appearance of the little girl and also felt a headache coming on.

This little girl knew the secret of her Sky Escape Technique; for safety's sake, she couldn't just let her go at will.

Otherwise, if the news spread out, it would probably cause her some trouble, big or small.

But to kill her?

That was not something Shi Nian could bring herself to do.

Shi Nian stared at the little girl for a long time, until the girl felt her scalp tingle, then she spoke softly, "Come, make an oath to the Heavenly Dao. Never reveal my secret technique. Once you make the oath, you can leave."

Just like that?

The little girl's eyes lit up, she quickly agreed, and then under Shi Nian's gaze, she sincerely made her oath to the Heavenly Dao.

This Heavenly Dao oath wasn't one hundred percent foolproof; should a powerful being intervene and bear the backlash of the oath for the little girl, she could naturally break the oath.

But.

This was the best solution Shi Nian could think of.

It's not like she could really kill someone, right?

When it comes down to it, she was being nosy.

If she hadn't taken action to save the girl before, this hidden danger wouldn't exist.

But.

While prudence is important, her principles of conduct are just as important. For now, this is the only way.

"Alright, since you've made the oath, you may go," Shi Nian said without any intention of lingering and disappeared on the spot in an instant.

The little girl was stunned.

She... She really just let her go like that?

And didn't even take the cloak?

This elderly woman is so powerful, she must have seen something special about the cloak. Even if it was of no use to her, trading it with someone else would definitely be beneficial.

Yet she simply had her make a Heavenly Dao oath and then let her go.

This...

This is a very big-hearted person.

The little girl's eyes started to fill with tears.

The place Shi Nian chose was very secluded, and the little girl wasn't in a hurry to leave. She found a corner to sit down cross-legged, slowly recovered her immortal power, and then put on the cloak, checked the direction, and hastily left.

It's been three days now.

Her brothers and sisters must all be waiting anxiously.

Deep in a hill, there was a cave.

Seven or eight children were in the cave, looking worried.

"Every year the big sister returns the same day, why has she been gone so long this time?"

"Could it be... Could it be..."

"Don't say it! No, you can't even think it! Big sister is so powerful, she definitely won't have any trouble."

"Right, big sister must already be on her way back."

The children encouraged each other, but their eyes were still full of worry.

Suddenly.

One of the children's expression brightened slightly: "The Barrier has been touched; big sister, big sister is back."

The children were about to rush out at once.

An older boy asked with remarkable composure, "You all wait here. Let me go out and take a look first."

Although it should be the big sister who's come back, just to be on the safe side.

The children held great faith in this boy and obediently agreed.

The boy left the cave alone.

He walked forward, reached the entrance of the Barrier, and then found a rock to hide behind.

Soon, the Barrier opened, and the little girl entered the Barrier, which then closed automatically behind her.

Only then did she let out a long sigh of relief.

This time, she really had gone through several tough situations at the Ghost Gate, but fortunately, she came back alive.

The little boy saw her face clearly and couldn't help but feel overjoyed, hurrying out: "Big Sister! You're back!"

"Little Stone, did you come to meet me?" The girl said with lingering fear, "I indeed encountered some trouble this time. If it weren't for a kind person who saved me, I wouldn't have made it back alive."

"It was that dangerous?" Little Stone's heart skipped a beat, growing tense.

"It's nothing, I'm fine now, aren't I?" The girl was very optimistic.

Nevertheless, Little Stone was still worried and couldn't help but whisper, "Big sister, it's okay if our Cultivation is slower. Next Slaughter Day, you really shouldn't go out anymore."

In this Lost Land, just being alive was good enough.

He didn't care about Cultivation or not.

But the big sister cared a lot. She always said everyone should strive to improve their Cultivation so that one day they could leave this godforsaken place.

The big sister said that the outside world was vast and the people outside were very kind. As long as they kept up their Cultivation, they would one day move on to greater realms.

They all looked forward to the world outside too.

Yet, if the cost were the life of the big sister, he would rather stay here forever.

"What silly thing to say, we must never fall behind in Cultivation," the little girl said seriously. "I know what I'm doing with my own affairs; I'll be more careful next time, I won't let anything happen to me."

Little Stone couldn't argue against the little girl and could only nod.

With the little girl's return, this group of children seemed to find their pillar of strength, and the entire cave dwelling became lively.

The little girl's face also showed a sincere smile. She took out her spoils of war, and the bunch of children boisterously shared them.

Shi Nian took a long detour and finally returned to her own cave dwelling.

She probed slightly and was somewhat surprised.

Before leaving, she actually left a little trick; she had the little boy Mark her, so she could track her movements, ensuring that if there were any emergencies, she would be the first to know.

Listening to the noise from the little girl's side, the little boy couldn't help but marvel: "A group of kids managing to survive in the Lost Land. This little girl is extraordinary."

Shi Nian nodded too, and she asked, "Little Host, have these children been in the Lost Land since they were born?"

The Host nodded: "Besides the criminals who fled here, the Lost Land also has its share of desperate souls with no place to go. I just peeped a bit into the fate line of this little girl and saw a glimpse of the past. It seems her parents were driven to a dead end by their enemies and came here. Her mother was already pregnant, and later gave birth to her in the Lost Land. Sadly, her parents were already riddled with injuries from being hunted down by their enemies, and they struggled to survive here. Later, her parents died protecting her outside. They wrapped the little girl in a cloak, so only she survived."

Shi Nian was astonished for a moment.

Such a small child, yet her experience was truly pitiable.

When her parents died, she might have been wrapped in the cloak, but she could still hear the sounds outside.

Shi Nian found it hard to imagine what kind of feelings such a small child had while inside the cloak.

"I only saw a little bit; it's a memory etched in the deepest part of her mind. To trace further would require expending some energy to collect the World Fragments related to her," the Host said.

Shi Nian immediately became vigilant, "Expending energy? What energy are you talking about! Let me tell you, either you collect it for free, or if you expect me to pay with Immortal Crystals, then forget it!"

Shi Nian's reaction was too quick, which the Host found regrettable.

"Host, have a look at what you've gained this time," the Host changed the subject.
