At the same time, the five black-robed men in the secret room were immediately attracted by Zhuge Youlin's extremely arrogant laughter. When they looked up, they happened to see Zhuge Youlin being teleported away.

"He has also entered the Nameless Realm!"

"Who are they? Why are their cultivation so low, but their talent so high?!"

"We need to inform the dean about this."

"Okay, but... we've lost contact with the dean. What should we do now?"

"Don't worry, the dean is so powerful, she will definitely return safely!"

And at this moment, the door of Tiandouhuangyuan was knocked again.

The five black-robed men in the secret room heard the sudden noise outside the door, their faces changed slightly, and they exchanged glances with each other quickly as if they had telepathy.

The square-faced man in black robe slowly stood up. He took a deep breath, then reached out and gently unfastened the buckle of the black robe on his body, took off the wide black robe and put it aside.

At this moment, his slightly solemn expression was clearly visible, and a hint of alertness flickered in his eyes. He lowered his voice and said to the other four, "Wait here for a moment. I'll go out and check what's going on."

The other four nodded and warned: "Be careful in everything."

"good."

This young man with a square face is named Wei Pengyue, and he is one of the disciples of Tiandouhuangyuan.

As Wei Pengyue gradually approached the gate of Tiandouhuangyuan, the knocks on the door became more and more urgent, as if the person outside the door had become a little impatient...

He ran towards the gate as fast as the wind. In the blink of an eye, he arrived at the door, reached out and grasped the cold latch, pulled hard, and the gate creaked open slowly.

He raised his head slightly and looked in the direction the arrow pointed. The first person that caught his eye was a young man with his long hair half-tied up.

The man had an extraordinarily handsome face. He was wearing a dark robe, the sleeves of which danced lightly in the wind, making his figure stand out even more tall and slender. When his eyes, as deep as a pool of water, looked over, he gave people an invisible sense of oppression.

Behind the man in black clothes stood a girl in purple clothes.

The girl's face was breathtakingly beautiful, her skin was whiter than snow and as delicate as a baby's. However, at this moment, her face looked a little pale, like a delicate flower attacked by frost in winter.

She lowered her long eyelashes, hiding the expression in her eyes, as if she was hiding some difficult troubles in her heart.

Looking further away, you can see that there is a large group of people guarding not far outside the courtyard gate.

There are a large number of people in this group, roughly estimated to be dozens.

seem……

Coming with great force.

Wei Pengyue's heart sank, and he thought to himself: Could it be that they are from the inner circle of the Gan clan?

The man in black was none other than Shen Ce. He smiled faintly and said, "We would like to stay at Tiandouhuangyuan for a few nights. Would your academy be willing to accommodate us?"

"This..." Wei Pengyue deliberately showed an embarrassed look.

At this time, a middle-aged man not far away frowned and said in an unhappy tone: "What's going on with your Tiandouhuangyuan? This is a distinguished guest from the core circle. Why don't you quickly clean up the room and let the distinguished guest move in!"

Wei Pengyue looked at the middle-aged man.

He recognized the other person's identity at just one glance.

The middle-aged man was none other than the renowned leader of the Tianxiang Alliance, a group known in the outer circles. He commanded a vast and diverse group of disciples, a staggering number of talented individuals. His status and position within the outer circles were unparalleled, earning him immense respect and awe.

Not only that, his own strength has reached the peak of the tenth level of the Half-Step Immortal Realm, and he is only one step away from the Immortal Realm.

As one of the most powerful factions in the Outer Circle, the Tianxiang League is renowned and powerful. Its influence is so great that it can sway the entire Outer Circle.

Therefore, countless sects and families in the outer circle submitted to the Tianxiang League and obeyed its orders.

The middle-aged man snorted arrogantly, "What? You don't know me, the leader? I'm Xiang Xiao, the leader of the Tianxiang Alliance. Where's the dean of your Tiandouhuangyuan? Why don't you quickly ask her to come out and greet our distinguished guest?"

Facing Xiang Xiao's questioning, Wei Pengyue lowered his eyes slightly and pretended to be very frightened.

How could he not know Xiang Xiao's identity?

Back then, Tiandouhuangyuan had suffered a joint suppression from many forces in the outer circles, including the Tianxiang League.

Wei Pengyue lowered his head and said tremblingly, "Our dean has gone out. If you don't mind, please wait a moment. We will clean up the rooms in the deserted courtyard immediately!"

Before the leader of the Tianxiang Alliance could say anything, Shen Ce accepted the offer.

"good."

Wei Pengyue lowered his head even lower, and became more respectful towards Shen Ce.

It looks impeccable.

A glimmer of light flashed in Wei Pengyue's eyes. Letting them stay was also a form of exploitation.

If the people from the inner circle of the Gan clan found out about this, with this distinguished guest and Xiang Xiao and others present, they would not dare to make trouble at all.

Wei Pengyue returned to the secret room and quickly told the other four people about this.

The other four also decided to take advantage of the situation.

They took off their black robes and resumed their status as disciples of Tiandouhuangyuan. The clothes they wore were a bit worn, which also matched the image of down-and-out disciples.

Afterwards, the five of them cleaned up the room.

Shen Ce and others were welcomed in respectfully.

Shen Ce glanced around and found that the Tiandou Deserted Courtyard was particularly dilapidated.

Shen Ce paused slightly, "I came to the outer circle this time to look for someone. I wonder if you have seen them?"

When Xiang Xiao heard this, he quickly took out the portrait from the storage space and showed it to Wei, Peng Yue and the other four.

The first one is clearly a portrait of Chen Yan.

Wei, Peng, Yue and the other four felt a sinking feeling in their hearts, as they had seen her in the assessment mirror.

But the five of them were able to hide their emotions completely and shook their heads.

"I don't know him."

"Look carefully!" Xiang Xiao frowned, then showed them the portrait of the second person.

That is a portrait of Zhuge Youlin.

Wei, Peng, Yue and the other four continued to shake their heads.

Xiang Xiao showed them eight portraits in a row, but they all said they didn't recognize them.

Xiang Xiao couldn't help but look at Shen Ce.

Shen Ce said calmly, "It doesn't matter if you don't know them. You can stay here for the next few days. You continue to search for them nearby."

"Yes, sir!" Xiang Xiao responded quickly.

Shen Ce and his group stayed in Tiandouhuangyuan.

Before Shen Ce entered the room, he turned to look at Ke Nu, who had been standing there. His eyes darkened a bit as he said, "Ke Nu, come here."

Ke Nu raised her head with panic in her eyes.

She bit her lip and walked towards Shen Ce as if she had made up her mind.

The two walked into the room.

The door was closed.

Xiang Xiao, who was not far away, saw this scene and smiled with an ambiguous meaning.
