"Alright, then, let's set off now. There’s no better day than today." Huang Fei, who had pulled Mei Xue into his team, looked extremely pleased and couldn’t wait to set out.
"Um, let me get ready." Mei Xue was no novice when it came to exploring secret realms. Although Tiantai Mountain only had one semi-public secret realm, "Zhou Chong," she had visited higher-level secret realms before coming to Tiantai Mountain.
The first rule of exploring secret realms—thorough preparation is essential. Only those who are sufficiently prepared can survive until the end.
"Which secret realm?" As the ruler of the most terrifying secret realm in Qinglong Mountain, Xiao Liu was well-versed in all the secret realms within the entire Qinglong Mountain range. No matter which one Mei Xue was going to, she wouldn’t be unfamiliar with it.
"Huh... Who is this..." Only now did Huang Fei notice the presence of another person in the room, and it was a young girl.
Is my luck in love finally turning around? Am I having a good run of romantic fortune?
But, wasn’t he the one who was being pursued by the golden-haired, jade-faced nine-tailed fox princess of the fox demon clan... Huang Fei sneakily glanced at Xiao Jiu beside Mei Xue and, as expected, saw that familiar sharp gaze in the little fox’s eyes.
This... This... Could this be a live-action harem situation? Cold sweat dripped from Huang Fei’s forehead as he scrutinized Xiao Liu more carefully.
He wanted to know who this divine being was, who dared to stand against the golden-haired, jade-faced nine-tailed fox princess of the fox demon clan.
Thus, a scene that had played out countless times in the market reappeared. Huang Fei’s mouth dropped open, almost blinded by the luxurious equipment Xiao Liu was wearing.
What is that! What is that! Isn’t that material from the dream spider silk! Huang Fei recalled a vague memory from his childhood when he was still in the Huangshan Immortal Sect, where he had seen a prominent figure. That was a powerful figure at the highest level of the entire Many Seas and Mountains, a Huangshan Qi Practitioner who was said to have lived for over a thousand years, and even his father treated him with utmost respect.
Human lifespans can’t compare to those of demons. Immortal practitioners who could cultivate for a thousand years were few and far between in the entire Many Seas and Mountains. That figure in Huangshan was several generations senior to his father, and the immortal robe he wore only used the special material that Xiao Liu was wearing in the most important parts.
Huang Fei would never forget this material because it was extremely special. Even without any treatment, it had the effects of dustproofing, detoxification, and levitation. It was one of the rarest materials used in making immortal robes—dream spider silk.
According to legend, the origin of this spider silk was not in the Many Seas and Mountains. The dream spider, which could produce this silk, was an extremely rare secret realm creature, with only a few dozen in the entire species, all protected by a powerful demon in the deepest part of a secret realm. For humans to obtain this silk was almost impossible.
To be able to use dream spider silk to weave an entire immortal robe was beyond the word "luxurious." This was a material sold by the strand and was in such high demand that it was practically priceless. The value of the entire dream spider silk immortal robe Xiao Liu was wearing was incalculable.
As for the strange and ancient nine-headed snake crystal hair ornament, Huang Fei could only stare, unable to identify which type of immortal treasure it was. It had already surpassed his ability to appraise.
Would a girl who could wear a dream spider silk immortal robe and use such an ancient treasure as a hair ornament be an ordinary person? Huang Fei didn’t think his intelligence had dropped to that level.
"Cough... We’re going to the Qianye Secret Realm. The strongest creature there is a butterfly, so it shouldn’t be dangerous." Huang Fei glanced at Xiao Liu’s equipment and felt like a firefly standing next to the sun.
Compared to this young lady, he, who was also from a prestigious family, was practically a pauper. Selling all his current equipment wouldn’t even buy a few strands of dream spider silk, which was a top-tier material that even immortal stones couldn’t buy.
"Qianye?" Xiao Liu didn’t have much of an impression of this secret realm because the ruler of a fourth-layer secret realm was too weak. They could only participate in the outermost part of the secret realm race gatherings.
The classification of secret realm rulers who could receive the invitation from Princess Shenmeng and attend the gathering at the Shenmeng Shrine when the passage opened was very strict. Only rulers of seventh-layer and above secret realms could freely enter the Shenmeng Shrine, while those below could only stay in the outer areas.
Qinglong Mountain was Xiao Xiang’s territory, so Xiao Liu had some impression of the various secret realm rulers in her area. The butterfly in the Qianye Secret Realm seemed to only know some illusions, with negligible offensive power. It was a demon that was often killed and couldn’t even develop its intelligence.
The last time she saw the butterfly was probably hundreds of years ago.
"Then, can I go with you?" Xiao Liu looked at Mei Xue with an expectant gaze. As long as she could be with Mei Xue, anywhere would be her home.
If possible, she really wanted to take Mei Xue back to her Qingxu and build a love nest there, to live happily ever after.
"Um, Huang Fei, what do you think?" Mei Xue didn’t know Xiao Liu’s strength, but someone who could wear such a luxurious immortal robe couldn’t possibly be a weak girl.
The prestigious immortal families of the Many Seas and Mountains wouldn’t let a frail young lady go out.
Xiao Liu turned her head and looked at Huang Fei with a gaze that made him feel immense pressure.
Huang Fei, who was being stared at by Xiao Liu, felt like a frog in front of a snake, not daring to breathe.
"Can I go, is that okay?" Xiao Liu asked Huang Fei politely, with the grace of a lady.
Only Huang Fei knew how much pressure that seemingly polite smile brought him. His short legs were almost trembling.
"Sure! Sure! Sure!" Understanding the situation, Huang Fei didn’t dare to refuse. This was a young lady from a noble family, possibly from one of the major families in the Many Seas and Mountains.
Not to mention other things, just that immortal robe alone could crush all low-level secret realms. It was a rare treasure that even a thousand-year-old immortal master could only dream of. The power of an immortal robe woven from it was enough to make anyone excited.
"Then, Xiao Liu, be careful." Mei Xue had already packed her medicine bag and prepared the special equipment for collecting and storing spiritual herbs.
"Xiao Jiu, stay home and rest. I might be back late tonight." Mei Xue patted the little fox’s head and checked the bandages again, confirming that the little one’s injuries no longer needed attention before leaving with Huang Fei.
"Um, Xiao Jiu doesn’t need to go to dangerous places. Rest well." Xiao Liu, who had deliberately lagged behind, flashed the Three Phases Seal in her palm, forcefully suppressing the little fox that was about to leap up.
"Argh!" The little fox, pressed down by a powerful force, let out an angry scream.
Unfortunately, the gap in combat strength was too great, and Xiao Liu’s move was too fast, too accurate, and too ruthless. The little fox didn’t even have time to use the Mirror Flower Water Moon technique of the golden-haired, jade-faced nine-tailed fox before being defeated.
"One, two, three, four, five, six..." The Three Phases Seal in Xiao Liu’s palm flashed six times with blood light, finally forming a blood-colored rune on the little fox’s body.
The blood-colored rune contained six strands of toxic blood, both in quality and quantity far exceeding the two-tailed little fox. No matter how much the little fox struggled, it couldn’t break free from the suppression of the blood-colored rune. It could only watch helplessly as Xiao Liu skipped happily after Mei Xue out of the courtyard.
