Xiao Hei then returned to Haotian's room.

Because she was responsible for overseeing the Elven race's sole selection of a suitable successor.

In Xiao Hei's eyes, the fact that the elves are in their current state is partly due to his indifference.

Xiao Hei immediately noticed Haotian's blank expression, which gave her a bad feeling.

It was as if... she was lost.

However, Xiao Hei didn't take it to heart, because she only knew that as long as Haotian didn't show any sadness, that was enough.

If she senses Haotian's sadness, she will immediately check the seal on her memories.

In this way... we kept her.

Until, finally, He made His move.

Xiao Hei walked slowly to Haotian as if nothing had happened.

He took out a flask of wine from his personal storage space.

"Now both the human and demon races are terrified by your Great Judgment."

Haotian didn't think too much about it. Perhaps... in her eyes, whether it was humans or demons, she no longer wanted to play mind games with any irrelevant beings.

She couldn't even handle her own affairs, let alone manage their lives.

Haotian did not respond to Xiaohei's words.

He just stared intently at the wine jug in her hand.

Xiao Hei didn't mind, a smile playing on his lips, and slowly poured Haotian a full cup.

A full glass of wine is a sign of respect.

Chu Xinqiao, who was standing to the side, took the wine glass and took a small sip.

Then, frowning, he savored it carefully.

Mr. Chu: Every sip of alcohol my wife drinks needs to be checked by me. Don't even think about drugging her!

After confirming that there was no medicine, Chu Xinqiao handed the wine to Haotian.

Xiao Hei's lips twitched involuntarily at the sight.

Good heavens, this Chu Xinqiao, it's one thing to be wary of everyone else, but she even has to be wary of me. Doesn't she know that Haotian and I are best friends?

Haotian's face was completely calm, but he was actually a little embarrassed inside. Only Chu Xinqiao stood up straight, pouting, looking like she was the epitome of justice.

"What will happen to Diefang and the others next?"

Haotian slowly raised his wine glass and took a small sip.

Upon seeing this, Chu Xinqiao thought: "Wow~ another indirect kiss. I really want to taste her lips that are stained with wine."

Haotian ignored Chu Xinqiao's distorted expression.

“I’ve said before that those who fail the trials will be forced to accept the punishment of going to the secret realms. I want them to go to those four special secret realms in the Spirit Realm…”

Upon hearing this, Xiao Hei lowered his head in thought.

The Spirit Realm has many excellent secret realms, among which the most eye-catching are those that allow one to comprehend the four great principles of time, space, cause and effect, and destiny.

The four main roads do not represent the same secret realm, but rather four separate secret realms.

Each of these areas is controlled by one of the top powers in the four regions of the Spirit Realm, and every year many geniuses aspire to be there.

Of course, opening such a large secret realm requires a massive amount of resources, and the slots are also precious, opening almost only once every ten years or so.

The four secret realms will open in turn.

The upper limit of the secret realms is below the level of immortals, which means that... most of them are training grounds for cultivators undergoing tribulation. In fact, many cultivators with extremely high talent suppress their cultivation and do not break through to become immortals just for the sake of opening these secret realms.

Of course, given her status as the Human King, if she were to visit each of their respective factions, they would have to activate the system even if they didn't want to.

The Human King Palace deserves half the credit for being able to protect such a top-tier secret realm.

These four top-tier secret realms might... help them understand what they truly should be doing.

All four secret realms share a common characteristic: they all involve questioning one's own heart.

In the Realm of Time, a single breath can be equivalent to several years; in the Realm of Space, any world can appear; in the Realm of Cause and Effect, countless beings await those who can inherit their power; in the Realm of Destiny, fate is intricately intertwined, revealing truths and falsehoods.

Let the four of them... draw lots.

Decide where to go...

After the decision was made, Chu Xinqiao stood behind Haotian, glaring at Xiao Hei.

That resentful look in her eyes seemed to say: Have you finished talking? Why aren't you leaving yet?

Xiao Hei felt a sense of helplessness and gestured for Haotian to turn his head and look at Chu Xinqiao.

Haotian obediently turned around and looked back...

The master of face-changing, Chu Xinqiao, makes his appearance.

Chu Xinqiao instantly transformed from an angry glare into a serene and beautiful smile.

Haotian looked at Xiao Hei: ...?

The moment Haotian turned his head, Chu Xinqiao's expression changed again, glaring angrily at Xiao Hei.

Xiao Hei: ...6.

Once again, Xiao Hei, seemingly unwilling to admit defeat, gestured to Haotian to turn his head and look at Chu Xinqiao.

Haotian turned his head a second time...

Chu Xinqiao's serene and beautiful smile.

Haotian turned back to look at Xiao Hei again.

Chu Xinqiao glared angrily at Xiao Hei.

Xiao Hei: ……

Xiao Hei gestured for Haotian to turn around and look again.

Chu Xinqiao smiled serenely and beautifully once again.

In just a short while, Haotian had completed the second set of neck-twisting exercises.

Finally, Chu Xinqiao couldn't hold back any longer and kicked Xiao Hei out in front of Haotian.

After Chu Xinqiao chased Xiao Hei away, she couldn't help but snuggle into Haotian's arms.

"She was so annoying, but she's finally gone. Haotian, now that it's all over, can we..."

Haotian immediately shut her up.

"cannot……"

"Why?!"

"No means no, there's no reason why."

At that moment, Chu's miserable screams of defeat echoed from inside the room.

...

As soon as Xiao Hei left the room, he contacted Xiao Qi from the Human King's Palace.

"Ah? What are your orders, sir?"

"Hmm... what was the name of that person from the Spirit Realm again? Cheng... Cheng Yao? I think that's her name."

"Yes... to the person from the Spirit Realm, True Immortal Cheng Yao, what are your orders, sir?"

"Have her inform the forces that control the four great secret realms of time, space, cause and effect, and destiny. I will be going there soon to discuss... matters related to opening the secret realms..."
