He knew Qin Yaotiao’s departure was a misunderstanding, and the creator of this misunderstanding was none other than his birth mother, Li Qingyao!
Of course, part of it also had to do with Qin Yaotiao’s failure to explain.
All Lu Chen could do was to find Qin Yaotiao again.
Originally, his strength was inadequate, and he was up against four cultivators at the Core Formation Stage, a fight he was ill-equipped to handle!
But if he went to the Haotian Secret Realm...
Lu Chen’s heart couldn’t help but beco sowhat excited.
However...
Zhu Chongjiu had said the Hehuan Sect would surely have at least Core Formation Stage cultivators leading the way. To avoid trouble, he still needed to disguise himself, to at least keep Qin Yaotiao from recognizing him, lest he unneccessarily bring disaster upon himself!
Once inside the Haotian Secret Realm...
Hehe, there would only be cultivators at the Foundation Establishnt Stage!
"Lu Chen, you seem... sowhat excited upon hearing about the Hehuan Sect?"
Seeing Lu Chen like that, Zhu Chongjiu also keenly sensed sothing, but then he thought it might be due to the Hehuan Sect’s reputation among the loose cultivators outside, and with a serious tone, he said, "The Hehuan Sect is not as you imagine, the won there don’t just choose partners for Dual Cultivation randomly! Rember, if you encounter soone from the Hehuan Sect, it’s best to stay away!"
"Master, what I have in mind is Mount Thousand Swords, a sect na I’ve never heard before!"
Lu Chen flatly denied it. Leaving aside whether he could confirm Qin Yaotiao’s arrival at the Haotian Secret Realm, even if she did co, he had to be cautious in handling the matter.
Five slots, minus Qin Yaotiao, left four others!
And organizations like the Casting Gear Pavilion would surely send out their strongest disciples of the sa generation!
Zhu Chongjiu nodded and said, "Mount Thousand Swords, all sword cultivators. You should also minimize contact with them. Sword cultivators tend to be arrogant, considering the sword as the ancestor of all weapons, especially towards our artifact refining sects—they look down on us even more."
"Why is Mount Thousand Swords like this?"
Lu Chen was stunned for a mont, then upon reflection, it seed that the Ji Pavilion seldom crafted sword artifacts or flying swords.
"I’m not sure either," Zhu Chongjiu said with a smile, "In any case, you just need to bring Yu Zhibai and Li Yanran with you. These two are quite powerful and will be a great help to you inside the Haotian Secret Realm! In the secret realm, rember to prioritize your own safety and avoid getting into conflicts! This ti, not only cultivators from our Eastern Domain but also those from the other four domains will co. So may have never heard of our Casting Gear Pavilion in their lifeti, and they will not hold back in a fight!"
Lu Chen smiled as well. Didn’t that imply he could also take a ruthless stance against others?
The path of cultivation was about competition; in a secret realm with abundant resources, contention was inevitable, and with it, killing.
If a dispute arose...
Then he’d simply kill the opponent to silence them!
"Disciple has taken note," Lu Chen thought to himself, yet his face betrayed no sign of his thoughts. After all, once he was in the Haotian Secret Realm, who could control him?
"By the way, Master, wouldn’t cultivators from first-rate sects enter it too?"
"I’m not certain about that either. In any case, just take care of yourself. I know you seek to compete for immortality, which necessitates contention. But with unclear circumstances, vying for everything can lead to disadvantage. So, prioritize self-preservation; as your master, I don’t need any treasures from the secret realm. I just want you to return safely!"
Lu Chen felt a surge of emotion. Zhu Chongjiu genuinely cared for him!
Of course, he would return safely, and not just that, but also bring back even better materials!
"Disciple will heed Master’s teachings!"
Lu Chen beca much more respectful, with a firm decision in his heart.
After exchanging a few more pleasantries with Zhu Chongjiu, suddenly, a strong surge of spiritual power fluctuations transmitted from outside the cave.
"The Sect Master has arrived!"
Zhu Chongjiu’s entire body tensed up instantly as he hurriedly ran towards the outside of the cave.
Lu Chen quickly followed suit.
"Lu Chen, it’s almost ti. Mount Thousand Swords has already sent a ssage. Arrive at the Casting Gear Pavilion in one hour. Yu Zhibai and Li Yanran are already at the back mountain of this sect’s main peak. You’ll co along with this Sect Master!"
"Yes, Sect Master!"
Lu Chen was extrely respectful.
Zhu Chongjiu urgently asked, "Master, do you have any protective magic artifacts to give Lu Chen a few...
Danyang Zi laughed heartily and said, "Xiaojiu, there’s no need to worry. Lu Chen is a man I’ve high hopes for; how could I let him suffer a loss? You may go back to Zhaixing Peak with peace of mind. If you protect Lu Chen to such an extent, how will he ever improve?"
Finishing his words, he flashed away with Lu Chen, leaving only the sound of wind in Lu Chen’s ears, his eyes unable to open.
In just a few monts, they were standing on solid ground again!
Upon opening his eyes, Lu Chen found himself behind the Casting Gear Pavilion, right in front of Danyang Zi’s cave dwelling!
Before the cave on the flat ground, Yu Zhibai and Li Yanran were also slowly opening their eyes and, upon seeing Lu Chen and Danyang Zi, they stood up to greet them!
