Chapter 322

Bai Yu was overjoyed to finally receive a compliment, even though the compliment had nothing to do with his cultivation.

Bai Yu hesitated for a long time before slowly speaking: "Immortal Venerable, this disciple also wishes to enter the secret realm to train."

Ling Wu said, "Any cultivator below the Nascent Soul stage can enter this secret realm. If you wish to go, I can inform the sect leader. However... there are both opportunities and dangers within the secret realm."

Lingwu paused slightly.

Bai Yu dared not interrupt, and after a long while Ling Wu looked at him and said, "If anything unexpected happens, then give up those material possessions."

Bai Yu, dressed in black with a gloomy demeanor, was taken aback upon hearing this.

He hadn't expected the Immortal Venerable to be so blunt with him.

Give up material possessions...

Yes, that's right. He fell off the cliff back then because he refused to give up that demon-repelling flower.

"Disciple understands!" He knelt and kowtowed.

At thirteen years old, he was like a newborn baby in the cultivation world. As a result, over the past five years, Ling Wu's gaze towards him was either indifferent or that of someone looking at a junior.

Bai Yu looked up and saw that gaze, which inexplicably made him feel that there was an even greater chasm, as if it could separate him and the Immortal Venerable in the future.

He finished packing and turned to leave, but stopped just before taking a step. He turned back and said, "Immortal Venerable, your disciple will certainly live up to your expectations!"

Ling Wu nodded indifferently. Only after Bai Yu's disappointment did she reply, "I will be waiting for you two to return home on Half Moon Peak."

Bai Yu silently removed the words "two people" and nodded emphatically.

The immortal said he would wait for him to come home.

On the day the secret realm opened, Ling Wu personally escorted the two disciples into the secret realm, where many disciples were already waiting in front of the Tianyi Sect's encampment.

Disciples like Song Bai, who are personally taught by their master, are only shown this way because their master has many ways to protect themselves, and because their master values ​​them highly, which makes many people afraid to oppose them.

Unlike the commotion caused by other Venerable Ones, Lingwu only needed a spiritual sword to put the two down.

Even so, it still surpassed the appearances of many other sect immortals.

Her dark hair was casually tied up with a single jade hairpin, and her long blue dress exuded a cool and lonely aura.

The longsword landed on the ground, and she stood before the number one sect in the cultivation world, holding the sword in one hand and the other behind her back, behind which was the colorful glow of the secret realm when it opened.

She alone was more dazzling than the entire secret realm.

Someone murmured softly, "Everyone is clearly bathed in this colorful glow, so why are some people the center of attention while others aren't even worthy of being highlighted?"

Someone suddenly replied:

"Because she is the Half-Moon Immortal Venerable."

She was the Half-Moon Immortal Venerable, who reached the Tribulation Transcending stage at the age of two hundred, and whose strength made everyone temporarily forget her dazzling appearance.

She is the Half-Moon Immortal Venerable, a single-spiritual-root cultivator whose cultivation speed under her guidance rivals that of a mutated-spiritual-root cultivator, and a five-spiritual-root trash who successfully established his foundation after only five years by her side.

Seeing this, Jingyi blushed and exclaimed, "Junior Sister, have you advanced in your cultivation level?"

Upon hearing this, Lingwu turned around and smiled, a smile that captivated countless people for the rest of their lives.

"It seems he has advanced to a higher level again," Jingyi exclaimed.

Jing Si, who was standing next to Lu Li, wanted to move closer to his mother, but was stopped by a look from Lu Li.

Jing Si remained calm and composed. "Master, I'm afraid my mother will worry, so I want to go and say goodbye to her."

As the sect leader's personal disciple, he took off his red robes today and put on the uniform moon-white disciple robes of the Tianyi Sect, but his outstanding appearance, as bright as the rising sun, could not be hidden.

He suppressed his desire to get closer to Ling Wu, turned his head away to ignore all the gazes around him, and stared at her alone.

This time, Lu Li didn't stop him; instead, he agreed.

Jingyi couldn't help but smile, and just as he was about to take a step, he heard Lu Li call out, "Jingyi."

Jingyi, still dazed in front of Lingwu, was suddenly transported to Jingsi by a burst of spiritual energy before she could react.

The mother and son looked at each other in bewilderment.

"You and your son should have a good chat," Lu Li's indifferent voice came.

Upon hearing this, Jingyi's hand itched to pull out a whip. "You brat, what do you mean? Now you even have to be wary of your own mother?"

The matter of the phoenix bloodline back then caused Xiao Si to develop special feelings for his junior sister.

It is neither pure romantic love nor simply familial affection.

It's more like the feelings of a fledgling bird when it first sees its first person, yet it's even deeper than that kind of emotion.

After she finished speaking, Jing Si tightened her lips and remained silent, falling into a slump.

Seeing this, Jingyi sighed softly, "Fine, if you come out of the secret realm alive, your mother will take you to Half Moon Peak as a guest."

"Really?" Jing Si looked up, and the cinnabar mole on his forehead shone brightly.

He nodded in surprise.

She didn't say that during those five years, she actually visited Half Moon Peak quite often, sometimes even forgetting that she had a son...

On the other side, Lu Li stood beside Ling Wu, but didn't know how to start the conversation, so he could only ask, "How is Junior Sister's cultivation going?"

"It's acceptable," Ling Wu replied, and then fell silent.

"..."

Lu Li's palms were sweating. He frowned and used magic to dry his hands, but his ears felt hot again.

Unbeknownst to him, the redness of his ears was noticed by the other elders, who exchanged bewildered glances in shock and disbelief.

Elders: "Ah, this..."

The outer sect elder, beaming with joy, exclaimed, "Great! Good things come in pairs! Hahahaha!"

Lu Li returned a glance: "What good things come in pairs?"

"Just you and Banyue... cough cough cough, it's nothing!" The outer sect elder hurriedly covered his mouth, revealing a pair of eyes that winked meaningfully at Lu Li.

Lu Li, not understanding what he meant, frowned and looked away.

The gate to the secret realm slowly opened, revealing a passageway large enough for one person to pass through, which gradually expanded until it could accommodate five people side by side.

This means you can enter.

Song Bai was somewhat reluctant, as this was the first time he would be away from Ling Wu for an extended period of time.

"Master, is your disciple leaving?"

Even after receiving Ling Wu's nod, Song Bai still dawdled.

Rui Feng glanced at Bai Yu one last time, narrowed her eyes, grabbed Bai Yu by the collar, and led him into the secret realm.

Just as he was swallowed by the rosy light, Bai Yuqi almost unleashed his demonic energy and punched Song Bai in the face!

He ruined all the farewells he had prepared for so long!

Thinking that he would not see the Immortal Venerable for another six months, Bai Yu, after being bathed in the glow of the sunset and shielded from everyone's view, raised his fist and swung it at Song Bai's face!

But in the next instant, the two were separated in different places due to the rules of the secret realm.

Bai Yu's punch landed squarely on the rear of a wild boar monster.

"Awooo—" the offended monster roared.

The demonic soul was terrified: "Fool, why aren't you running?! This monster will eat you without even chewing you!"

Bai Yu, who had caused trouble the moment he entered the secret realm, gritted his teeth and turned to run away.

Outside the secret realm, Ling Wu declined Lu Li and Jing Yi's invitations.

In a desolate place, he changed into a black robe and suppressed his cultivation level to the Golden Core stage.

They entered the secret realm just as it was about to close.
