Hu Tao was still lying in Hu Xuan's arms, crying out in pain.
Hu Xuan dotes on her younger brother the most.
She took care of her younger brother when he was little.
Her younger brother has always respected her, his older sister, the most.
Hu Xuan was initially unwilling to marry the sect leader of the Heavenly Demon Sect as a concubine.
But it was precisely to ensure her younger brother's secure position as the young sect leader that she used every trick in the book to firmly grasp the heart of the Heavenly Demon Sect's leader.
The reason I came to the ancient secret realm this time was not only to enter the secret realm to find its treasures, but also because I knew that Hu Tao would be leading the disciples of the Azure Sea Sect to this place to enter the secret realm.
She also wanted to come and see her younger brother.
But to her surprise, as soon as she arrived, she saw her younger brother lying in the tent, covered in injuries.
These disciples of the Azure Sea Sect not only failed to kill the scoundrel who dared to lay a hand on her brother, but they even dared to say that it was because her brother casually flirted with other women that this trouble occurred.
It's a joke. Isn't it an honor for any woman that her brother takes a liking to?
She wanted to see which ungrateful wretch dared to refuse her younger brother.
"Where are those people?" Hu Xuan first scolded the disciples of the Azure Sea Sect, and then immediately asked Hu Tao's lackey.
"They're over there. They're the fewest, only five people in total, but they seem quite strong. The man in the blue clothes sent the young sect leader flying with just one move."
The lackey quickly began to complain and pointed out the location where Xiao Feng and his men were stationed.
Looking at them from afar, Hu Xuan indeed couldn't discern the identities and levels of these people.
However, this time, the Heavenly Demon Sect is determined to obtain what is in the ancient secret realm.
Therefore, among the people sent were several extremely powerful individuals.
On one hand, they had to protect Hu Xuan's safety, and on the other hand, they had to enter the ancient secret realm after it opened to find what the Heavenly Demon Sect's leader wanted.
"I'm giving you ten minutes. I need to see one of that guy's legs!" Hu Xuan coldly ordered the guards.
The guardians exchanged glances.
Although they looked down on Hu Xuan, they certainly couldn't disobey her wishes because of the sect leader's orders.
However, the ancient secret realm is about to open, and offending other cultivators at this time is not a wise move.
Just as one of the protectors was about to speak to persuade Hu Xuan, everyone felt the mountain below them shake violently.
Hu Tao, who was waiting for his sister to leave, immediately stopped his pointless whining and quickly stood up from the ground.
The group walked to an open space and saw that the mountaintop where they were standing suddenly emitted a dazzling light.
"That must be the entrance to the secret realm!" Hu Xuan exclaimed excitedly.
If she can gain a lot in the secret realm this time, she will definitely be more favored by the sect master when she returns to the Heavenly Demon Sect.
Then she will push the sect leader's wife out of that position.
If she could become the sect leader's wife of the Heavenly Demon Sect, she would not only gain more resources to improve her cultivation, but also provide Hu Tao with greater support.
Don't think she doesn't know that their father's preferred candidate for the young master of the sect is not Hu Tao at all.
But Hu Tao is his own younger brother.
They were born to the first wife of the sect leader of the Azure Sea Sect.
Only they are qualified to become the successors of the Azure Sea Sect.
If the position of young sect leader cannot fall to Hu Tao, she would rather let the Heavenly Demon Sect annex the Azure Sea Sect than allow the Azure Sea Sect to fall into the hands of those few bastards.
As the ancient secret realm opened, the guardians of the Heavenly Demon Sect immediately spoke up: "Madam Hu, the sect master said that everything should be based on the treasures in the ancient secret realm. We should enter the secret realm first. If those who bullied Young Sect Master Hu Tao survive, it will not be too late for us to deal with them then!"
Although Hu Xuan was unwilling to let that bastard live for so long.
But considering the critical importance of this matter, she still gently comforted Hu Tao and asked him to wait a little longer.
She assured Hu Tao that she would definitely kill the damned man who attacked him and avenge him.
Hu Tao naturally knew what was more important and, of course, wouldn't want to put his sister in a difficult position, so he immediately agreed.
The people in the mountains were extremely excited and rushed towards the radiant light on the mountain peak.
Xiao Feng and the others also packed their things at a leisurely pace and ran up the mountain with the main force.
If someone were to look down at this mountain peak from a high vantage point, they would see numerous cultivators swarming towards the summit like locusts.
Faced with this situation, the demonic beasts that were originally in the mountains and forests naturally dared not come out and disturb these cultivators.
Soon, everyone reached the top of the mountain.
Seeing that everyone was about to rush into the newly opened gate of light, Xiao Feng stopped the others who were with him and asked them to wait so that people from other sects could rush in first.
"Why wait? What if someone else gets what you want first?" Zhao Yuwei asked anxiously.
Xiao Feng shook his head and then said, "Don't worry. The sect leader told me before that the place where the Hundred Poison Fruit is located is deep in the secret realm, and the ancient secret realm must have some dangers and killing moves that ordinary people don't know about."
“Look, the major sects around here send people from these smaller sects to their deaths first. They need to verify whether there will be any dangers in entering the ancient secret realm. This way, the people who go in later can avoid some traps or troubles.”
After listening to Xiao Feng's explanation, the group looked around and found that, as expected, some disciples from various sects were standing there coldly.
Seeing the sect disciples who were the first to enter the secret realm and were going to their deaths, not a single person said anything to stop them.
As expected, the first few dozen people who rushed in all let out piercing screams.
It's unknown what kind of crisis they encountered inside the secret realm.
As screams rang out, the portal to the secret realm changed once more, stained with an eerie crimson hue.
However, everyone could see the situation inside the secret realm through the portal.
The dozens of people who went in earlier are now lying decapitated at the entrance of the secret realm.
"Isn't this an ancient secret realm? Why is it so dangerous! We'll die as soon as we go in, so how are we supposed to find the treasures inside?"
A disciple from a small sect outside, due to being ostracized, did not go in with the sect members.
He saw that all the senior students who had gone in before him were now lying there as corpses.
He was so frightened that he trembled and frantically ran down the mountain.
Hu Xuan looked at the guy who had just run away and said sarcastically, "Fool, ancient secret realms like this are bound to have traps. Who told them to be so eager to die!"
Only after the light in the secret realm had completely stabilized did people from major sects gradually enter.
