Lu Fuyue saved the female spirit monkey only to repay the male spirit monkey for bringing her out of the Valley of Misty Clouds.

She was very tempted by these things, but since they weren't hers, she couldn't accept them.

So Lu Fuyue placed the fruits in front of the two monkeys, saying, "These things are too precious for me to accept, and besides, you saved my life."

Unexpectedly, the female monkey suddenly spoke up, "Benefactor, these are just ordinary fruits to us."

"Besides, even without it bringing you out of there, with your abilities, it would have been only a matter of time before you came out, my benefactor. And you saved my life; without you, I would truly be beyond saving."

"Therefore, please accept these gifts, my benefactor. In addition, to express my gratitude, please also accept these jars of wine."

After saying that, the male monkey took out several jars of thousand-year-old monkey wine from the tree hole and placed them in front of Lu Fuyue.

Lu Fuyue was somewhat surprised that it could speak human language, but then she thought that it might be because it had eaten some kind of spiritual fruit, so she was no longer surprised.

The male monkey also looked at Lu Fuyue with expectant eyes, hoping that she would accept their gift.

Lu Fuyue remained silent for a moment, then took out some pills from Elder Dan and some pills she had refined herself from her storage ring and handed them to the mother spirit monkey.

"In that case, I'll accept them. These are some pills that might be of help to you if this situation arises again in the future."

...

After saying goodbye to the two monkeys, Lu Fuyue's pupils suddenly contracted.

She seemed to have spent a long time in that palace before, and now she has spent two or three days here. So how long has she actually been in the secret realm?

Could it be that several months have already passed?

Lu Fuyue's expression changed drastically in an instant. Could it be that she was going to stay here for fifty or sixty years?

So what about her guitar strings?

Just then, a dozen or so cultivators suddenly appeared out of nowhere and blocked Lu Fuyue's path.

"Hand over the treasure you possess, and we might spare your life!"

Lu Fuyue breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that there were still cultivators here. Fortunately, she could still get out.

But she was actually robbed?

Lu Fuyue looked up at the dozen or so people. The one with the highest cultivation was the leader, who was in the late Foundation Establishment stage. The others were in the mid or early Foundation Establishment stage.

Among them was a red-clad female cultivator from the Hundred Flowers Palace, whose cultivation level was only at the mid-Foundation Establishment stage. Perhaps because of what happened at the entrance of the secret realm, she looked at Lu Fuyue with extremely unfriendly eyes.

The female cultivator in red walked to the man at the head of the group, took his arm, and said softly,

“Brother Xuan, I know this woman. She is the daughter of the sect leader of Tianxuan Sect. So even if she didn’t get anything good in the secret realm, she must have a lot of treasures on her.”

As soon as the words "Tianxuan Sect" were uttered, all the male cultivators turned to look at the female cultivator in red, and a hint of fear appeared in their eyes.

The Tianxuan Sect is one of the three major sects in the cultivation world, and the Cangnan Secret Realm is under its jurisdiction.

The leading male cultivator glared fiercely at the red-clad female cultivator beside him.

"What? She's the daughter of the Heavenly Profound Sect Master? Why didn't you say so sooner?"

"just in case……"

The female cultivator in red naturally knew what they were afraid of, so she curled her lips slightly and looked at Lu Fuyue with disdain.

"Don't worry, we're in the Cangnan Secret Realm. It's not uncommon for people to perish in the Secret Realm. So what if they die?"

"Besides, we have already offended her. If she goes back and complains to the sect leader of Tianxuan Sect, then we will be truly finished."

"Not only that, our sect will also be implicated."

Upon hearing this, everyone was stunned. Yes, their actions had offended Lu Fuyue. In that case, why not just kill her to prevent her from going back and complaining, and they could even make a profit from it?

As the sect leader's daughter, she must possess many treasures. In addition, considering what she obtained in the secret realm, killing her would allow all of these things to be theirs.

The thought of this made all the cultivators' eyes turn red.

Lu Fuyue watched quietly as the female cultivator in red instigated the male cultivators to kill her, but she did not say a word.

Since someone has come to her doorstep, how could she refuse to play along?

This is a good opportunity to test her strength at the peak of the early Foundation Establishment stage!

However, in those people's eyes, Lu Fuyue was simply terrified, which is why she stood there obediently.

"Brothers, let's go!"

"Kill her, and everything on her will be ours."

No sooner had he finished speaking than a dozen men rushed toward Lu Fuyue with weapons in hand.

A cold glint flashed in Lu Fuyue's eyes. She took out the Weak Water Zither, looked up at them indifferently, and then began to play the zither.

The instant the music began, the notes, amplified by spiritual energy, transformed into countless flying swords that pierced their hearts. Several early Foundation Establishment cultivators were unable to dodge in time and died on the spot.

As a result, only half of the dozen or so people remained.

The remaining five or six people looked at Lu Fuyue with a completely different expression, as if they had seen something terrifying. They instinctively took a few steps back.

"What... exactly did you do?"

Previously, they had only heard that sword cultivators who had comprehended sword intent could fight against opponents of higher levels.

Unexpectedly, Lu Fuyue, a sound cultivator at the early stage of Foundation Establishment, was able to kill so many cultivators of the same level as her in one fell swoop. What's even more terrifying is that her strength seems to be much more than that.

Could it be that she was hiding her cultivation level?

Everyone was shocked, but Lu Fuyue's bone age was only fifteen years old. No matter how talented she was, it was impossible for her to reach the Golden Core stage.

Seeing their terrified expressions, Lu Fuyue suddenly laughed, "Don't worry, I haven't been hiding my cultivation level."

Although Lu Fuyue said it herself, it seems that no one still believes her.

The female cultivator in red realized that they had completely offended Lu Fuyue, and their only option now was to take a desperate gamble.

Even if Lu Fuyue, who is only at the early stage of Foundation Establishment, is very strong, there is no way he could defeat the late stage of Foundation Establishment and the remaining mid-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators.

Then a ruthless glint flashed in her eyes, "Brother Xuan, she really is only at the early stage of Foundation Establishment, I refuse to believe that the few of us working together can't kill her!"

The leading man, whom she called Brother Xuan, thought for a moment and realized it was true. So he quickly drew his sword and thrust it at Lu Fuyue. Seeing this, the others launched an attack in Lu Fuyue's direction.

Lu Fuyue pursed her lips, looking at them as if they were dead. "Since you are so eager to die, how can I not grant your wish?"

The first move of Qin Sha Jiu Tian: Three Thousand Spinning Flying Blades!

As the zither music began, a powerful spiritual force spread out from Lu Fuyue. At the same time, the zither music transformed into flying blades, like a tracking and spinning spiritual weapon, only stopping when it drew blood.
