Within the Cloud Hidden Immortal City, there was an inherent, almost imperceptible, somber atmosphere.

Along the streets, low-rise buildings and simple stalls intermingled, and the cultivators either hurried along or stopped to chat, but their eyes all carried a hint of caution and wariness.

Most of the immortal cultivators living in the First Heaven are ordinary people with low-level spiritual roots or no spiritual roots at all. They must be extremely cautious, otherwise they might lose their lives if they encounter an immortal cultivator from a higher-level realm while traveling.

Those immortal cultivators from higher realms are easily recognizable; they dress elegantly and behave in a manner unlike the reserved and humble behavior of lower-level immortal cultivators.

They exuded an aura of superiority as they walked, and their eyes revealed disdain and contempt for lower-level immortal cultivators.

In Cloud Hidden Immortal City, it is not uncommon to see immortal cultivators from such high-level realms. They come here to stroll around, search for some kind of spiritual medicine, or look for some rare materials.

Although the spiritual energy in the first level is not as abundant as in higher realms, it has the advantage of having more low-level immortal cultivators and cheaper labor. Therefore, some herb gardens, weapon-refining workshops, clothing workshops, and other daily necessities used by immortal cultivators are produced and sold on this level.

Therefore, the First Heaven is a mixed bag, with all kinds of immortal cultivators, making it the most similar to the lower realm.

Chu Wanwan and Si Mingye strolled through the immortal city, their arrival seemingly attracting little attention.

"The aura here is completely different from that of those above the sixth level of the Heavenly Realm," Si Mingye said softly, his gaze sweeping across the surroundings, trying to find clues about Chu Wanwan's relatives in every trace of this aura.

Chu Wanwan nodded, the "Understanding the Past and Present" mirror in her hand flickering gently, indicating the direction. "They should be in the east of this city, where there is a relatively concentrated residential area. My uncle the emperor and my brother and sister-in-law should live there."

As they ventured deeper, the surrounding environment gradually became more crowded, but also more vibrant with life. The laughter of children, the calls of vendors, and the leisurely chatter of elderly people under the shade of trees all created a harmonious scene.

Chu Wanwan and Si Mingye strolled through these alleys, their pace unhurried, as if they were also enjoying this rare moment of tranquility.

Suddenly, a noisy commotion broke out.

"Hey! You took the spiritual herbs we cultivated, but you didn't give us any spirit stones, and you're still acting so arrogantly! You really have no humanity at all!"

"Ha! Humanity? We are immortal cultivators, not ants like humans. What are you talking about humanity with us? Only you lowly immortal cultivators talk about humanity! You sympathize with them because you are just as pitiful as them, right? Hahaha..."

"You are utterly lawless! I'll fight you to the death!" Chu Wenze, the youngest brother of the Chu family, charged forward carrying a hoe used for planting spiritual plants.

"Brother, come back! You can't beat them!" Chu Wenyu hurriedly called out to stop him, but it was too late. Before Chu Wenze could even get close to those high-level immortal cultivators, he was blasted back by a powerful force and fell to the ground, blood flowing from the corner of his mouth, clearly suffering internal injuries.

"Hmph, overestimating yourselves." The high-level immortal cultivator sneered, his eyes full of disdain. "I heard you are low-level immortal cultivators who ascended from the Upper Realm. What? You're used to having it easy in the Lower Realm? Do you think this place is the same as the Lower Realm? A piece of trash with a Heavenly Spirit Root dares to act wildly here? Let me tell you, no matter what your status is in the Lower Realm, once you arrive in the Immortal Realm, you are all the lowest-level trash, trash who may never even be able to advance to the Condensing Spirit Realm in their entire lives! If you want to survive in the Immortal Realm, you need to understand your place! If you don't, don't blame our Qingyang Sect for disciplining you!"

The high-level immortal cultivator's words were full of contempt and mockery towards the Chu brothers, as if in their eyes the Chu brothers were nothing more than insignificant ants.

Chu Wenze was unconvinced, but Chu Wenyu covered his mouth with his hand.

Chu Wenze tried to break free, but Chu Wenyu coldly shouted:

"Chu Wenze, do you still want to cause trouble for your elder brother, sister-in-law, and Uncle Si? Uncle Si was almost beaten to death by those immortal cultivators last time because he saved you, and he is still unconscious at home."

"My elder brother and sister-in-law have been pulling strings to try and reach Mother in the Fifth Heaven to save Uncle Si. If you get beaten to death or maimed again, we'll all go crazy. Chu Wenze, you're not a child anymore, can't you be a little more sensible?"

“But…” Chu Wenze wanted to say that Qingyang Sect was going too far, but Chu Wenyu interrupted him: “Chu Wenze, although you don’t look old, you have lived in the lower realm for over a thousand years. Don’t you understand the law of the jungle?”

Chu Wenyu said with a sense of disappointment, "Although their faces are not old, they only managed to ascend after a thousand years in the lower realm because of their mediocre talent. Perhaps Chu Wenze had too smooth a life in the lower realm, so his mind never matured. He is extremely reckless and cannot assess the situation."

After being scolded by Chu Wenyu, Chu Wenze immediately lowered his head and fell silent.

He now somewhat regrets his decision to cultivate immortality. Back in the mortal realm, he had envied the prospect of becoming an immortal and achieving eternal life. But now, he realizes that life in the immortal realm is far more complex and cruel than he imagined.

"Second brother, I was wrong," Chu Wenze said in a low voice, his tone full of remorse.

Chu Wenyu sighed, patted his shoulder, and whispered in his ear:

"It's good that you know you're wrong. Don't be so reckless in the future. Our current strength is not enough to contend with those high-level immortal cultivators, so we can only endure for now."

"Yes! I know!" Chu Wenze said, his eyes red and his head bowed.

Although I felt frustrated, I had no choice but to compromise.

"Hehe... If only it had been like this from the beginning, you wouldn't have had to suffer like this. Now that you've recognized the situation, I won't make things difficult for you. Next time, remember to offer up anything good, otherwise... hehehe..."

"Let's go..."

After the Qingyang Sect disciple finished speaking, he waved his hand to leave, but Chu Wanwan blocked his way.

Chu Wanwan glanced at the two men behind the Qingyang Sect disciples, and her eyes reddened.

Chu Wenyu squatted on the ground, supporting Chu Wenze's body. Blood seeped from the corner of Chu Wenze's mouth as he looked at the backs of the Qingyang Sect disciples, his eyes filled with hatred.

Chu Wenyu's face remained the same as before, only he looked much more mature, appearing to be in his thirties. Chu Wenze had also grown proportionally, looking about four or five years younger than Chu Wenyu.

Both of them wore gray cloth robes, the kind of clothes that ordinary people and low-level immortal cultivators in the Immortal Realm would wear. However, although the clothes were simple, they were clean and tidy, exuding an air of simplicity without losing elegance.

Looking at the injured Chu Wenze, Chu Wanwan's anger intensified. She slowly walked towards the immortal cultivators of the Qingyang Sect, each step appearing exceptionally heavy, as if she were carrying a burden of ten thousand pounds.

"You've gone too far!" Chu Wanwan's voice was icy, her eyes flashing with a bloodthirsty glint.

As soon as Chu Wanwan spoke, Chu Wenyu and Chu Wenze both looked at her.
