Many powerful individuals also came to the center of the forest, all wanting a share of the spoils.
A deafening shockwave emanated from nearby.
Wen Chuyu said to them with a solemn expression, "This secret realm is too unusual. If any unexpected situation arises later, be sure to leave this place as soon as possible."
"Understood, brother."
"Understood, Senior Brother!"
Braving the lingering waves from the depths of the forest, the group finally arrived at a clearing. On the other side of the clearing were cliffs, where many spiritual cultivators had already arrived and were discussing the secret realm in hushed tones. It seemed that this was undoubtedly the entrance to the secret realm.
Ji Jiuying's eyes darkened. Luckily, she had brought a veil beforehand. She hadn't expected to actually run into acquaintances, and not just one group at that.
What surprised her was that the Second Prince, Jun Lintian, was also there, and the young men and women beside him were probably from the Duke's mansion.
Behind her was a mysterious old man, who, if she guessed correctly, was specifically there to protect Jun Lintian.
Everyone noticed them and looked at Wen Chuyu and the others.
"It's her!" A man in black clothes in the shadows looked at Ji Jiuying, the coldness in his eyes fading, replaced by an unreadable emotion.
The alluring and sexy woman beside him noticed his unusual behavior and followed his gaze, her long eyelashes concealing the disappointment in her eyes.
Lian Qingcheng knew it was Ji Jiuying the moment she saw her, because only she could catch Ye Qingchen's eye.
On the other side, a man also dressed in red saw Ji Jiuying and his eyes lit up. "It's her!"
But wasn't she with Gong Mingyue? Where is that guy?
Seeing the red outfit she was wearing, he wondered what Gong Mingyue's expression would be when he saw him wearing matching clothes with her, and he suddenly felt a little expectant.
In fact, what he did was practically suicide—but that's another story.
The most shocked person was Ji Rufeng. When he saw Wen Chuyu, a look of panic flashed in his eyes. How could this be? How could this be? He had clearly crippled the person himself, so how could he be here unharmed?
Wen Chuyu's icy gaze met his, and the two gazes collided in mid-air, as if two great demonic beasts were fighting in the sky.
"Is that Wen Chuyu, the young master of the Wen family?"
"It must be him. Who else in our Cangyue Kingdom has blue eyes besides him?"
"Wasn't it said that Wen Chuyu's meridians were completely shattered?"
"You wouldn't know this, would you? A while ago, Madam Wen had a difficult childbirth, and it was said that there was no hope of saving her. In the end, a young girl with a black veil cut open her abdomen, took out the baby from her belly, and then sewed her belly up with needle and thread..."
"Is this really possible? A belly can be stitched up with needle and thread?"
"That's right~"
"I guess Wen Chuyu was also cured by that masked doctor."
The crowd's discussions quickly thrust them into the spotlight.
"Hey~ Could that masked woman next to Wen Chuyu be...?"
Upon hearing this, everyone looked at Ji Jiuying with ambiguous expressions.
Ji Jiuying, dressed in fiery red, stood out starkly against the mountain scenery. Her long, flowing black hair fluttered in the wind, captivating all who saw her.
Ji Jiuying paid no attention to the whispers around her. At this moment, her eyes were deep and unfathomable, and all her attention was focused on the edge of the cliff. She had a strange feeling that the entrance to the secret realm was over there.
Jun Linyu narrowed his eyes, a hint of amazement flashing across them, which was replaced by a determined glint.
Is she the one he's looking for? Regardless of whether she is or not, the fact that she was able to repair Wen Chuyu's meridians is enough to demonstrate her extraordinary nature.
Seeing that her elder brother and the Third Prince were both captivated by the girl in red, Ji Fengyan gritted her teeth and glared at Ji Jiuying, thinking, "That damned vixen."
When Wen Longting saw Ji Fengyan glaring at her, she glared back defiantly and made a face at Ji Fengyan.
At this moment, another group of people arrived at the open space; it turned out to be the Feng family, one of the three great families.
The leader was a middle-aged man with a resolute appearance, dignified and extraordinary, with a fierce aura between his brows and eyes. Behind him were five or six young men and women.
"It is Feng Zuo, the eldest elder of the Feng family, and one of the family's strongest members."
Some people recognized Feng Zuo and whispered among themselves.
"Feng Ling, Feng Yi, be careful when the secret realm opens. This secret realm is very unusual. There may be sacred beasts inside, or even divine beasts. In any case, survival is the most important thing, understand?" Feng Zuo said to a man and a woman behind him.
"A divine beast!" Upon hearing this, the group was shocked.
Just then, a violent, enormous whirlpool emerged from the edge of the cliff.
Ji Jiuying's eyes narrowed slightly; she knew it was true.
Ji Jiuying glanced around. Why wasn't that man here yet?
At this moment, some of the bolder ones were the first to enter the vortex and then disappeared from everyone's sight.
Once the first bird takes the lead, everyone else follows suit.
Only Wen Chuyu looked somewhat solemn. "Ting'er, Xiu'er, Miaoqing, Su Mu, Sun Lin, you shouldn't go. Wild secret realms are fraught with countless unknown dangers."
The secret realm that Wen Chuyu and Ji Rufeng entered was a wild one, a secret realm that had buried countless geniuses, and even Wen Chuyu almost couldn't come back.
"But I..." Wen Longting was about to say something when Wen Longxiu interrupted her.
“My brother must have his reasons for saying this, we mustn’t be reckless.” Wen Longxiu agreed with what her brother said.
Wen Longting could only pout and reluctantly agree.
Su Mu and Sun Lin knew that this was a realm they could not reach, so they naturally agreed with Wen Chuyu.
“Senior brother, I want to go,” Shen Miaoqing said firmly.
"No, what if something happens to you? How am I supposed to explain this to my master?" Wen Chuyu said sternly.
Upon hearing this, Shen Miaoqing lowered her head and remained silent. Taking advantage of their inattention, she leaped into the vortex.
"Shen Miaoqing!" The moment Shen Miaoqing entered the vortex, she heard the voice behind her and was startled. Her senior brother must be angry. Never mind, she'd go in first and see what happens...
Then, Ji Jiuying and Wen Chuyu also flashed into the secret realm.
The four were left standing there in a daze. "Then what about us?"
Wen Longxiu glared at Wen Longting and said to Su Mu and the others, "Let's go out to the edge of the forest and find an inn to wait!"
Besides Wen Longting and her group, there were other people who also dared not venture into the wild secret realm.
The secret realm slowly closed shortly after they left.
Suddenly, a powerful pressure swept out from outside the secret realm, and a man descended from the sky. Some spiritual cultivators with low cultivation levels immediately knelt down and vomited blood.
So strong!
The man's face was flawlessly handsome, his features were as if carved by a knife, every part was perfect to the extreme, and his eyes, as deep and cold as a cold pool, were like sharp divine eagles, making people dare not look directly at him.
We arrived a step too late, but entering the secret realm isn't an option either...
Those who entered the secret realm were all in a peach grove, like a paradise, with endless peach blossoms as far as the eye could see.
Wen Chuyu and Ji Jiuying found Shen Miaoqing and scolded her a few words.
In the end, he had no choice but to compromise and could only let her follow closely behind him.
