Lan Zheyu: “…” Thank you. Instead of feeling comforted, I felt even more heartbroken.
Beitang Sanyu said, "It's okay to suffer setbacks in the secret realm this time. Luck is also a part of talent. The fact that you two made it out alive proves that you're quite lucky... When new secret realms appear in the future, you can continue to explore them. If Spiritual Masters and Soul Masters want to become stronger, they must constantly compete, seize opportunities from others, experience life-and-death crises, and accumulate more experience."
Lan Jinyu said, "Master, your words don't sound like you're asking us to become stronger, but rather to die quickly."
Beitang Sanyu looked embarrassed and coughed. He said, "It's mainly because you two have a grudge against Prince Rui, and Prince Rui certainly won't give you enough time to cultivate and become stronger. So you have no choice but to find another way and take a life-threatening approach. As long as you don't die from cultivation, you can advance... If you die, your master will be able to protect you, so it's a win-win situation no matter how you look at it."
Lan Zheyu actually felt that Beitang Sanyu's words made sense, so he said, "How about this. From now on, if there's a secret realm, I'll go explore it, and my third brother will stay home... If anything happens to me, at least my third brother is still alive. If only his spirit and I were left alive, I'm afraid Ah Zhi wouldn't be able to accept it."
Lan Jinyu shook her head and said, "Your suggestion is good, but you should not go to the secret realm anymore. Let me go. You are calm and composed and can take good care of Ah Zhi, but I have a bad temper... I think I am more suitable to go to the secret realm and compete with others for opportunities."
Beitang Sanyu said, "Alright, you two don't have to fight. Just take turns. For example, this secret realm is for Zhe Yu to enter, and the next secret realm is for Jin Yu to enter..."
Lan Zheyu was at a loss for words and said, "That's a good idea, but some secret realms are too far away. Sometimes it's too late to rush over once you get the news."
"It's okay, just go with the flow. There's no need to rush to die." Beitang Sanyu said casually. He said, "What were you just reciting about? Auspicious signs from heaven, holy blood forming a forest, a sincere heart without regrets, and eternal life in the lake town..."
After repeating it, Beitang Sanyu discovered that the first letters of these words together turned out to be...
"Tiansheng Red Lake!"
Beitang Sanyu stood up from his seat, his face full of horror.
"What happened to Tiansheng Red Lake...?"
The Lan brothers still didn't understand why their master was so excited.
Beitang Sanyu didn't utter a single word for a long time, his face filled with a complex array of expressions. After a long moment, he sat back in his chair and muttered blankly, "You two are so lucky to have made it out of this secret realm safely..."
"What's wrong?"
"It's normal that you haven't heard of this name. I once read an ancient book. The book said that there is a kind of martial arts in this world. After practicing to the seventh level, it can extend a person's soul life by 50,000 years... 50,000 years! Even my Beitang family's [Trampling Spring Light], when practiced to the highest level, can only make the soul live to 10,000 years. But that legendary martial arts book has been lost. The book said that 50,000 years ago there was a genius named Tiansheng Chihu. After obtaining this martial arts book, his cultivation level improved by leaps and bounds, and he became the most powerful person in the world. Then, this strongest person in the world went crazy and began to massacre cities and countries, killing many innocent people. He also brutally killed all the soul practitioners who practiced the same martial arts with him, causing this martial arts book to be completely lost. Later, Tiansheng Chihu disappeared..."
Beitang Shanyu pounded his fist on the table and said, "I actually missed the secret realm of Tiansheng Red Lake. I... I deserve to die!"
He was so angry that he wanted to slap himself twice, but he couldn't bring himself to do it, so he had to continue pounding the table.
"Master, your hands are not as hard as the table. Can you please stop bullying the table?" Lan Jinyu said.
"Yeah." Beitang Shanyu withdrew his hand. His hand hurt from hammering too much. He frowned. Anyway, everything was in the past. There was no point in saying more now. However, he still wanted to study what Lan Zheyu had carried on his back.
"Let's go home. When we get back, I will write those contents down for my master." Lan Zheyu said.
"good."
…
…
Prince Jing's Mansion.
Jun Weihe had gone out to attack and kill Prince Rui before, and after returning he went into the underground palace to recuperate.
He slept for a day and a night, and finally woke up at the call of the black velvet ball hidden in the night.
"Zang Ye, if you're hungry, find something to eat by yourself and don't bother me in my ears." Jun Weihe said.
Zang Ye kept arching his shoulders and making "eh eh eh" sounds.
Jun Weihe sat up helplessly and asked, "What's wrong?"
Zang Ye kept saying "Huh". Jun Weihe stared at it for a long time but couldn't understand what the little black ball was trying to express. So he took Zang Ye out of the underground palace and came to the palace on the ground.
"The prince is back?" The guards patrolling the palace were stunned for a moment, then breathed a sigh of relief. During this period when the prince was not in the palace, the guards' patrols not only did not slacken, but were even stricter than before.
Their master disappeared in the mansion without them noticing, which was a serious dereliction of duty. Therefore, the guards made up their minds to take good care of Prince Jing in the future.
Of course, they will not restrict the prince's personal freedom, they just want to protect the prince's safety.
Jun Weihe asked, "Has anything important happened in the capital recently?"
"Reporting to the prince, a secret realm appeared in Baishan before. Many people lost their memories after entering the secret realm and thought they were reincarnated..." One of the guards told Jun Weihe in detail what he knew.
Jun Weihe looked calm. He was not very interested in the secret realm and was just asking casually.
Another guard said, "For some reason, during the time the prince was away, the relationship between the Fourth Prince and Crown Prince Yuan Zhan became very good. The Crown Prince even lived in the Prince's Mansion for a while..."
The ordinary guards did not know that this was the emperor's order and thought that the Fourth Prince was doing it voluntarily.
"Also, we heard that Prince Rui went to the palace, but we don't know what he did there..."
"Prince Rui?" Jun Weihe suspected he had misheard. "When did you say that happened?"
The guard replied, "Yesterday."
Jun Weihe: ???
Wasn't Prince Rui killed by me?
How could he still be alive?
Jun Weihe frowned. He was certain he hadn't killed the wrong person, because the Prince Rui he had killed had the aura of the Devil Blood Curse on him. Moreover, when the life force of Prince Rui dissipated, the Devil Blood Curse dissipated along with it, indicating that Prince Rui was already dead...
So, who is the "Prince Rui" who returned to the Kingdom of Darui?
Could someone be impersonating Prince Rui?
