"Senior Brother, there are so many teams going to the secret realm."
As they brushed past another group of sea creatures, Shushu, while wary of them, couldn't help but whisper something to Lu Li.
Lu Li, who was standing to the side, glanced at her and knew that she was just complaining and didn't need his reply, so he didn't say anything more and continued to be vigilant about his surroundings.
In fact, during this short journey, they discovered that not all sea creatures were so friendly with the Frost Whales; many sea creatures actually loathed humans.
These sea creatures, who loathe humans, will immediately glare at them and treat them with contempt upon discovery.
Some sea creatures would deliberately create huge waves in an attempt to capsize their spirit ships, which was an extreme way of provoking hatred.
He guessed that if they weren't traveling with the Frostfeather Whale clan, these sea creatures would be even more unruly, and might even rush up and start a fight as soon as they encountered each other.
This discovery caused the senior and junior disciples great distress, but they couldn't help but feel fortunate that they had encountered the Frost Whale clan first, otherwise this period would not have been so easy.
Thinking of this, the senior and junior disciples looked at the Frost Whale Clan with even gentler eyes, leaving the Frost Whale Clan completely bewildered, unable to understand what they were doing.
However, the Frostfeather Whales were all carefree. They didn't hear Lu Li and Shushu talking, so they didn't ask any questions and instead focused on hurrying on their way.
While they were on their own, they did not forget to spare some attention to control the water flow, helping the spirit boat carrying Shushu and Luli to speed up.
And so, on the vast sea, a spirit boat, surrounded by a group of Frost Feather Whales, sped forward at a speed several times faster than a normal spirit boat.
With this speed boost, they quickly left the territory of the Frostfeather Whale and encountered even more groups of sea creatures.
Perhaps because there were more sea creatures, everyone was busy being wary of each other, and those sea creatures who hated humans stopped causing trouble or making a fuss.
Aside from occasionally glaring fiercely at Shushu and Luli, he didn't make any other small moves, and even deliberately kept his distance from them, acting as if they were keeping to themselves.
Lu Li and Shushu didn't want anything to happen at this time, so they tacitly agreed to this way of getting along and didn't bother each other.
Of course, not disturbing them doesn't mean they're cowardly. Whenever they sensed the sea monsters glaring at them, Shushu would glare back fiercely, baring his teeth.
The potato thought his expression was very fierce, but little did he know that when a delicate little girl grinned, it didn't look fierce at all; instead, it made her look even cuter.
Even the sea beasts that loathed them felt a little embarrassed when they saw her expression, and they toned it down a bit and stopped glaring at them.
Not to mention the entire Frostwing Whale Clan, everyone just thought that this little shrew was incredibly cute, and they couldn't help but want to hug and cuddle it.
Unfortunately, with Lu Li around and the Frost Whales in the water, not a single one could get close to the glutinous rice ball; they could only watch with envy.
Lu Li, on the other hand, couldn't resist ruffling Shushu's little head a few times. After meeting Shushu's puzzled gaze, he casually moved his hand away, a smile he couldn't help but let down his lips.
And so, the senior and junior disciples, along with a large group of sea beasts, continued their journey in a strange, balanced way, heading towards the Fallen Maple Secret Realm.
As they got closer to the secret realm, they finally encountered teams other than the sea creatures, including land-dwelling spirit beasts and human cultivators.
When these people and beasts discovered each other, they all gave each other special attention.
Especially when he saw Shushu and Luli mingling among a group of sea beasts, he looked them over again and again, and even sent a telepathic message back to ask for information about the two of them.
Clearly, the two students had been targeted by certain individuals with ulterior motives.
Thinking back to the relationship between human cultivators and sea beasts on the Huaiyu Continent, as well as the abundant resources in the depths of the ocean, the senior and junior brothers and sisters exchanged a glance, both understanding each other's thoughts.
It seems that after this secret realm, it will be impossible for them to travel around the Huaiyu Continent unnoticed.
To avoid unnecessary trouble, the senior and junior disciples discussed it via telepathy and decided to set off immediately to leave Huaiyu Continent after leaving the secret realm.
Meanwhile, in order to prevent those people from targeting the Frostfeather Whale clan, Lu Li and Shushu devised a clever way to escape unscathed.
After exchanging information with Jingyi, the senior and junior disciples took the opportunity during a conflict between the sea creatures and human cultivators, which escalated into a fierce fight.
The two disciples rushed forward recklessly, and were subsequently killed in full view of everyone, their bodies sinking to the bottom of the sea.
After landing on the seabed, taking advantage of everyone's distraction, Lu Li used a few more illusions to replace them with two puppets, who then lay quietly on the seabed.
They themselves quietly hid nearby, using illusions and advanced formation changes to scare away some low-level sea beasts that wanted to devour the corpses, as well as those who had their eyes on them.
The senior and junior disciples erased all traces of their existence, created the scene of them being devoured alive, took away the puppets, changed their appearances, and quietly left the place.
After retreating to a certain distance, the senior and junior disciples did not reveal themselves immediately, but silently lurked at the bottom of the sea.
Only when they sensed that a large group of independent cultivators was about to arrive did they avoid the sight of all living beings, release another spirit boat, and pretend to be rushing towards the Fallen Maple Secret Realm.
Soon, the main force behind them caught up.
Just as they sensed, the large group was a mixed bag, with varying levels of cultivation, and each small team had a different number of members.
When these people saw Lu Li and Shushu, they only glanced at them briefly before looking away and continuing on their way.
The fellow students also successfully blended into the group and acted alongside everyone else.
During this period, several teams with ulterior motives came to recruit them, intending to use them as human shields.
Enraged by their rejection, they tried to teach them a lesson, but Lu Li and Shushu turned the tables on them, fighting several times, yet it didn't affect their good mood at all.
On the contrary, after playing these matches, the brothers and sisters got some exercise and were in a much better mood, with relaxed expressions on their faces.
Seeing this, the rest of the group knew that although there were only two of them, the senior and junior brothers and sisters were quite strong and a tough nut to crack. They put away their little schemes and no one dared to provoke them anymore.
Lu Li and Shushu were both pleased with this result, and naturally they wouldn't cause any more trouble.
And so, the senior and junior disciples traveled with the main group for several more days, and finally, just as dawn broke each day, they successfully arrived at the entrance to the Fallen Maple Secret Realm.
Here, the place was already teeming with people and beasts. Human cultivators, sea creatures, and terrestrial spirit beasts each occupied their own territory, quietly gazing at each other.
