Song Xia smiled and said, "Let's go."
As she spoke, she led Bai Xiao and Song Luo back to where they were. When the other cultivators who came after hearing the commotion arrived, they only saw Qin Xiuyang emerge from the spirit pool.
The wonders of the Spirit Pool were witnessed by everyone, and all sorts of rare and precious materials were coveted. However, before they could make a move, they were all forcibly teleported away.
"It's Qin Xiuyang!" someone shouted, and the cultivators scattered throughout the North Sea Ice Plains were filled with envy and resentment.
"It's him again!"
"How come he's always so lucky!"
"He already owns the entire secret realm, so what's wrong with him allowing us to pick some spiritual herbs?"
"Why is Qin Xiuyang from the Tianyuan Sect? Is it too late for me to join the Tianyuan Sect now?"
"My Ice-Freezing Grass, it was just a tiny bit short!"
Hearing the crowd's discussion, Xiang Chengyuan, who had fallen out in a sorry state, didn't know whether to laugh or cry. It was indeed good that the secret treasure had been inherited by Qin Xiuyang. At least their Tianyuan Sect would have another place for trials in the future, and he should also be able to use those rare and precious materials.
But Qin Xiuyang got the credit, and Jianfeng's reputation grew even higher, making his position as the young master feel incredibly stifled.
Qin Xiuyang, who had also fallen out, had heard the misunderstandings people had about him. His aura became even colder and more murderous. He didn't explain, nor did he need to explain to these people. He simply chased after them in one direction.
"Mom, that was a brilliant move!" Song Luo laughed heartily as she thought about it. "He's definitely going to suffer this loss in silence."
"They'll figure it out sooner or later, but for now, it will definitely cause him trouble." Song Xia smiled. Who told Qin Xiuyang to have such incredible luck, always managing to obtain the secret realm's inheritance? And he doesn't always hand over the inheritance, so she wanted to see how Qin Xiuyang would defend himself by creating some public opinion when they went back this time.
"Get on the boat, Qin Xiuyang might have already caught up." Song Xia knew this man too well and was well aware of his many tricks, so she dared not take any chances. Leaving immediately was the best option.
Bai Xiao and Song Luo had no doubts. After the spaceship started, it landed in the nearest city and then left via a teleportation array. After doing this several times, Qin Xiuyang completely lost track of them.
Song Xia and the others didn't linger. Once they were sure they had shaken off Qin Xiuyang, they returned to Sunset Forest. It was best to leave this secret realm to Little Qilin.
"Is it okay if I've already accepted a master?"
"It's alright. It was just a simple blood oath ceremony. The cultivation method wasn't fully refined. Passing it on to the little Qilin now won't cause any problems. Besides, there are so many good things in the secret realm. Mother can recover with just one spiritual herb."
With that, Song Luo put aside her worries, and under the watchful eyes of the other demon kings, Song Xia brought the Qilin egg into the secret realm.
The secret realm contains the inheritance of all the Qilin. Here, it will grow and develop better, and may even hatch ahead of time.
As for the rare and precious materials in the secret realm, Song Xia took some out for everyone to consume. These materials were older and more diverse, unlike those in the forest, which were mostly useless to everyone.
Song Xia herself consumed a spiritual fruit that grew on a green vine. She didn't know what kind of vine it was, but she could sense that the fruit was effective for her.
Sure enough, after taking it, she felt much more comfortable all over, and her connection with heaven and earth became closer. She unconsciously transformed back into a vine, and her branches and leaves stretched out freely. Under the moonlight, each leaf emitted a faint glow.
On the other side, the Wolf King howled to the sky from the mountaintop, the Butterfly King transformed back into its cocoon in the Butterfly Valley, the Overlord Flower evolved to be taller than the big tree next to it, and the Black Dragon's scales became harder, with two small bulges appearing under its belly, as if dragon feet were about to grow out. The Eagle King, Xiong Ba, and Bai Xiao were even more affected, directly attracting lightning tribulations.
Tonight belongs to Sunset Forest. They never expected that the spiritual medicine left behind by Lord Qilin would have such a great effect on them!
This powerful commotion naturally attracted the attention of the cultivators, but in recent years, few cultivators had stopped at the edge of Sunset Forest, so no one dared to go in to investigate, only to be horrified by the powerful commotion.
"The world is about to change. What's wrong with these demons?"
"Go back and report to the sect immediately, don't delay!"
"Why are these beasts so crazy? How can they all advance at the same time?"
"Could they... be planning to invade our human territory?"
Song Xia and the others were unaware of the human race's worries, nor did she anticipate that the spiritual herbs in the secret realm would bring about such a significant change for everyone.
At the same time, she recalled Qin Xiuyang's actions after obtaining the secret realm. It seemed that Tianyuan Sect did not benefit from it. Qin Taiming only repaired his internal injuries, while he himself suddenly arrived in Sunset Forest and then forced the little Qilin to recognize him as its master.
Tsk... What kind of dawn of humanity is this? He's nothing but a selfish and petty person. Admittedly, he got the secret realm, and there's nothing wrong with him distributing it as he sees fit.
But what about his fellow disciples who sacrificed themselves to protect him? Did they deserve it?
And what about the resources you've acquired from the Tianyuan Sect since you were a child? Don't you expect to give back to them?
Song Xia couldn't understand why such an extremely self-centered person would be favored by Heaven.
Qin Taiming sacrificed the entire Qingyang Continent in order to ascend to immortality, so why didn't he suffer divine punishment?
"Xiaxia, do you know why we came here?" System Xiaoling suddenly spoke up, "It's because the Heavenly Dao of this place has gone astray, so we are asked to correct it and let all things in the world return to normal. Some factors are not completely controlled by the Heavenly Dao. Qin Xiuyang is an existence that is not controlled by this place."
Song Xia's eyes flickered. So, eliminating Qin Xiuyang would save the Qingyang Continent?
“You have done very well. Since the secret realm returned to the little Qilin’s hands, Qin Xiuyang’s luck has been clearly weakening.”
"So all I have to do is keep taking away his resources and make him stop being outstanding, right?"
"That's correct in theory."
"That makes things easier."
Song Xia smiled. Knowing the plot in advance, she didn't believe Qin Xiuyang could still win!
On the other side, after returning to his sect, Xiang Chengyuan immediately reported that Qin Xiuyang had gone to the North Sea Ice Plains without permission and obtained a secret treasure.
Sect Master Xiang Hengguang dared not speak out in anger. Originally, this was arranged for his son, but Qin Xiuyang beat him to it.
"Junior brother, now that you have received the inheritance, why haven't you returned to the sect?"
Qin Taiming was as arrogant as ever: "Xiuyang has his reasons for doing this. He has never made any mistakes. Senior brother, you don't need to worry."
"I was worried that something might happen to him since he was carrying such a valuable treasure."
"This is Xiu Yang's own business."
"You..." Xiang Hengguang took a deep breath, "I heard that there are many rare and precious treasures in the secret realm. Shouldn't my nephew return to the sect to hand them over?"
"The capable should take the place. Xiu Yang has already completed the sect's mission of establishing a branch, so this should be decided by him. Moreover, Xiu Yang has high talent, and he needs even more rare and precious materials on his cultivation journey. Senior brother, it is a blessing for the sect that Xiu Yang continues to improve his cultivation." Qin Taiming's attitude was firm, not giving Xiang Hengguang any face.
