Yan was not easily fooled, and immediately remembered the secret realm inheritance agreement he had reached with the high-ranking officials in the capital.
"They made a pact with me to inherit the secret realm. Once the secret realm opens, all the human awakened beings here must go with me. How can that not count?!"
This agreement is indeed true, and according to the covenant of the secret realm, whether human or spirit, as long as one successfully receives the inheritance in a temple, one becomes the inheritor of that temple, and other forces cannot seize it.
While inheritance might not be a major problem for spirit beasts, it is a matter of a lifetime of cultivation for humans.
After all, human cultivation mainly relies on inheritance and practice, unlike spirit beasts which mainly rely on their own comprehension.
"Is this true?!" He Qing and Ming immediately asked.
The loud questioning from the two fellow disciples made Liu Chang'an tremble. Liu Chang'an dared not lie, much less go back on his word. If they had known there was such a thing, they wouldn't have dared to say it so easily in the first place!
It wasn't that they hadn't considered things carefully; rather, according to the accounts of the few ability users who entered the secret realm, the human and spirit races communicated with each other within the realm, and there was no conflict between them.
So everyone thought that as long as they could enter the secret realm, that would be fine. Anyway, if Yan's side didn't work out, they would be taken to other palaces to try. They never thought that there was a question of ownership!
"Yes, we did make an agreement with Chief Yan at the time." Liu Chang'an's mouth felt dry, and he slowly lowered his head.
He only hoped that this matter would not have too great an impact. Although the number of superhumans among humans is growing rapidly, in the current situation, every superhuman is very important.
Now everyone realizes that only those with superpowers can survive in this drastically changed world.
Seeing that Liu Chang'an did not go back on his word, Yan nodded slightly in satisfaction. People in the East were still much better than those in the West.
He Qing and He Ming were immediately speechless, but when they thought about the success rate of human awakened individuals inheriting their skills on the Spirit Race's side, they felt relieved.
“In that case, let’s not argue about the time. We can just let them go with you first.” He Qing said with a smile, and Jian Zhang’s arrogant atmosphere disappeared without a trace.
"Hmph, don't even think about causing trouble. We, the Spirit Clan, will not tolerate your antics." Yan snorted coldly, ignoring He Qing and Ming, and instantly disappeared from the spot.
He Qing and Ming breathed a slight sigh of relief. They really couldn't afford to turn against the Spirit Clan right now, as the Spirit Clan was currently slightly stronger than them...
Thinking of the culprit who caused the rise of the human race's powerful generals, He Qing and Ming's expressions darkened, and their gazes toward the west grew increasingly profound.
Liu Chang'an sensed the change in the two men's aura and immediately froze in fear.
"Let's go, we'd like to meet with your manager first." He Qing put aside her thoughts and turned to look at Liu Chang'an.
Liu Chang'an immediately gestured: "Alright! This way, please!"
Seeing that He Qing, He Ming, and the giant panda had all left, the atmosphere inside and outside the city relaxed a bit. They were genuinely afraid that if these three powerful figures started fighting, wouldn't they, the innocent bystanders, be the ones to suffer?
“Brother Amo, they…” Yao Yao tugged at Amo in surprise, her eyes full of confusion.
These two had been in their team for over a month, so Yao Yao naturally knew them and even knew their names were He Qing and He Ming. They got along quite well on a daily basis.
Ah Xu was rarely shocked, but after the initial shock came a sense of lingering fear and relief. Fortunately, they had not shown any disrespect to the two Buddha statues and had gotten along well with them along the way; otherwise, they would have been in real trouble.
Amo pinched Yao Yao's little face, "It's okay, they... they should be good people."
Although he didn't know what the two people's purpose was, Amo was certain that these powerful individuals from the secret realm had no intention of bullying the weak. In fact, he could sense that He Qing and Ming wanted to help humanity.
He discovered this from the fact that the two secretly helped Liang Cheng's team and frequently observed and protected those with superpowers.
After receiving Amo's answer, Yao Yao stopped frowning and nodded like a little adult, "That's good."
Ah Xu smiled. The little girl is so young, but she has so many worries.

In the capital, due to the relationship between the Spirit Race, human cultivators, and humans, the situation of the survivors is gradually changing.
Lin Qian was unaware of this change. He and Shan Feng had just successfully infiltrated the survivor group in Linhai City, and bringing Shan Feng along was naturally for this purpose.
If it weren't for the mountain wind, humans would either run away or attack immediately upon seeing a tiger as big as Lin Qian, and there would be no possibility of contact or communication.
"Xiao Feng, did you really see a water source up ahead?"
The leading officer looked at the boy beside him and couldn't help but ask again. It wasn't that he didn't believe it, but that he couldn't believe it.
He knew very well how difficult it was to obtain water under the current circumstances, but he had to hold onto hope. They needed water, they desperately needed it!
The troops from Linhai City were originally heading towards the capital, but due to changes in the terrain, they had difficulty determining their direction. In addition, after several attacks, the troops scattered and fled, and they gradually deviated from their course.
This is largely due to the fact that the survivors did not have the corresponding positioning equipment they could use. Not to mention the high-tech military equipment they had previously used, even the most basic compass had become useless. If they wanted to get to a certain location, they could only rely on the starry sky.
Originally, this method was feasible. Although it was not convenient, it could still ensure that the direction was correct. However, after the appearance of the double sun and double moon, the starry sky seemed to be obscured. Very few stars could be seen. The original sky full of stars could only be seen occasionally, and the constellations were also incomplete.
