"Grandpa Yu, you can bring your business here. Let's make a deal that you can't leave until I get home. Otherwise, my great-grandfather will be too lonely alone." Zhou Yuanyuan reminded Yu Xiaohan.
"Okay, okay, then I won't be polite." Yu Xiaohan nodded with a smile.
Zhou Yuanyuan's words contained several implications. First, she instructed Yu Xiaohan to inform his assistants that any official matters requiring his decision could be sent to the Zhou residence. Otherwise, if Yu Xiaohan remained at the Zhou residence, his subordinates would be unable to find him, and the Yu Group's stock in Hong Kong would plummet. Second, she instructed Yu Xiaohan to remain with General Zhou and not leave until Zhou Yuanyuan returned home.
Yu Xiaohan was also a shrewd person. He knew that Zhou Yuanyuan had a deeper purpose behind her arrangement, so he didn't bother to ask questions and stayed at the Zhou family. Because of this, Yu Xiaohan was able to escape a life-or-death crisis. But that's a story for another time.
Zhou Yuanyuan's spiritual sense had already seen Wen Ziqing dismount his flying sword and enter the "Forest of Death." She was incredibly grateful for the no-fly ban over the "Forest of Death," otherwise, she wouldn't have had enough time to intercept him before he entered the secret realm. Wen Ziqing had a jade token to enter the secret realm, but Zhou Yuanyuan didn't.
After Zhou Yuanyuan quickly arranged accommodation for Yu Xiaohan, she took Yu Xiaohan to meet General Zhou.
General Zhou and Yu Xiaohan hit it off right away. Before Zhou Yuanyuan left home, the two had already set up the chessboard and started "fighting".
After doing these things, Zhou Yuanyuan no longer hesitated and used the magic of "shrinking the earth into an inch". After a few steps, she arrived at the entrance of the Langyuan secret realm.
At this time, Wen Ziqing arrived at the entrance of the secret realm.
The gate to the secret realm was flashing with white light, and it seemed that someone had just entered and exited the gate not long ago.
Zhou Yuanyuan was standing right in Wen Ziqing's path. Wen Ziqing had already opened his eyes, but he ignored the nearby Zhou Yuanyuan. He walked straight to the gate of the secret realm, took out his jade pass from his body, and pressed it against the door.
The jade pass was prepared by Taoist Baopu for Wen Ziqing. Cultivators within the secret realm who reached the fifth level of Qi training could apply for a jade pass from their sect, allowing them to enter and exit the secret realm.
Taoist Baopu originally treated Wen Ziqing's body as his backup. To make things easier for himself, as soon as Wen Ziqing reached the fifth level of Qi training, Taoist Baopu immediately prepared a jade pass for Wen Ziqing.
The first time Zhou Yuanyuan entered the Langyuan Secret Realm, she followed Liu Jingyun in. Zhou Yuanyuan knew that once the jade token in Wen Ziqing's hand was embedded in the secret realm's gate, a teleportation array directly to the Yushan Sect would appear inside the secret realm's gate.
Looking at the "distraught" Wen Ziqing, Zhou Yuanyuan raised her hand, wanting to knock him unconscious.
After thinking about it, Zhou Yuanyuan retracted the spiritual power that was about to be released from her palm.
Forget it, she should just follow Wen Ziqing secretly and find out the owner of Chansi first!
Zhou Yuanyuan repeated her old trick, stepping into the Chaos Pearl's trial world and letting it hook onto Wen Ziqing's collar. Without a jade token, Zhou Yuanyuan could only "smuggle herself in."
After a flash of white light, Wen Ziqing appeared outside the Yushan Sect's mountain gate. Along with Wen Ziqing, the Chaos Pearl, which was hanging on the back of his collar, also appeared.
Zhou Yuanyuan guessed correctly. The gate to the secret realm had indeed just been opened before Wen Ziqing entered it.
Among the people who entered the secret realm was Zhou Yuanyuan’s old acquaintance He Jingjing.
He Jingjing didn't walk in on her own; she was knocked unconscious and dragged in. The same thing happened with Yun Shang. With only a foundation-building cultivation base, she had no experience in fighting, so she was taken down by Ye Wuyang and Xie Hanshi.
Ye Wuyang and Xie Hanshi were originally planning to go to the "Forest of Death" to pick snakeberries. As soon as they walked out of the secret gate, they felt someone was watching them in secret.
Ye Wuyang was a little worried. Over the past few months, because of Xie Hanmei, Ye Wuyang and Xie Hanshi had become like rats crossing the street. Many cultivators who used to be close friends with him had made things difficult for Ye Wuyang and Xie Hanshi in order to curry favor with the higher-ups of Qingyun Peak and Piaomiao Peak.
After hearing the breathing sounds behind the tree, Ye Wuyang secretly observed Xie Hanshi's expression before shouting, "Who? Come out quickly."
No wonder Ye Wuyang was so cautious. The journey of cultivating immortality was filled with fear and anxiety. Ye Wuyang stayed with Xie Hanshi, not just as a close friend but also as someone tasked with the secret mission of monitoring him. Ever since Xie Hanshi's cultivation level surpassed Ye Weiyang by two levels, Ye Wuyang had been plagued by nightmares. In his dreams, Xie Hanshi discovered Ye Wuyang's true identity and pursued him with a flying sword.
He Jingjing was startled by Ye Wuyang's shout. She thought Ye Wuyang had discovered them, so she pulled Yun Shang out from behind the tree and introduced herself: "Master... Senior Brother, it's me, He Jingjing from Xiaoyao Peak."
After spending two years in Yushan Sect, He Jingjing knew the nature of the monks very well: they would kill people if they disagreed with them.
Today's incident was originally He Jingjing and the others' fault. In the world of cultivation, spying on others is a taboo. He Jingjing was afraid of causing misunderstandings, so she had to first raise her identity to make Ye Wuyang and the others feel intimidated.
The two previous masters of Xiaoyao Peak had both become the leaders of the Yushan Sect. Over the past two years, the disciples of Xiaoyao Peak have held their chins higher than those of the disciples of other peaks. Ye Wuyang was stunned when he heard He Jingjing introduce herself.
Xie Hanshi frowned. Xie Hanshi was now at the seventh level of Qi training, and at a glance, he could clearly see the fluctuations of the second level of Qi training on He Jingjing's body.
As everyone knows, the gate of the Langyuan Secret Realm is not just for decoration. The cultivators in the secret realm cannot leave the secret realm unless they reach the fifth level of Qi training.
"Wuyang, be careful of a trap. Why would a female cultivator with such low cultivation level appear at the entrance of the secret realm?" Xie Hanshi reminded.
The sudden appearance of a second-level Qi training cultivator and a beautiful woman (Yun Shang) whose cultivation level was unknown at the entrance to the secret realm was a very strange thing in itself. Ye Wuyang and Xie Hanshi were already in a bad state, and they dared not take anything or anyone lightly.
"Brother Xie, let's capture them first and then interrogate them severely." After hearing what Xie Hanshi said, Ye Wuyang quickly reached out to grab He Jingjing.
He Jingjing was so frightened that she quickly pulled Yun Shang's hand and shouted, "Sister Yun, run!"
It wasn't that He Jingjing was kindhearted and couldn't bear to see Yun Shang fall into the hands of these two cultivators. Rather, He Jingjing was very clear about her own strength. Without Yun Shang, she would never be able to escape the "Forest of Death".
He Jingjing had just turned around and ran two steps when Yun Shang pulled her back.
