    Chapter 15 Chapter 15 Brother Liar

    The moment he stepped out of the entrance to the secret realm, the sun was dazzling. Ji Hantong subconsciously squinted his eyes and looked back, only to see that the entrance behind him was slowly shrinking and eventually disappeared completely, as if the strange mushroom forest and the mysterious wooden house had never existed.

    “It’s finally out.” Ji Hantong breathed a sigh of relief and stretched his muscles. Except for the slight discomfort in his left leg, he felt much better.

    He remembered Mo Wuyi’s words and looked at Shen Lanchuan with some worry: “Senior Brother, Senior Mo said he would ask the people from the Immortal Alliance to leave. Will everything be okay?”

    “Senior Mo has his own sense of proportion.” Shen Lanchuan looked at the direction where the entrance disappeared with a deep gaze, “It would be good if those people in the Immortal League are aware of their interests. If they are not aware of their interests…it is their own fault.”

    His tone was calm, but Ji Hantong noticed a hint of coldness hidden in it.The Suxin Secret Realm this time is indeed full of doubts. No one knows what role the Immortal Alliance played in it.

    Ji Hantong nodded and thought no more.He looked around and found that the location they came out of was not the cliff they entered yesterday, but a hidden valley on the other side of the Luoxia Mountains.The vague shadow of the Xianmeng flying boat can be seen in the distance, and it seems to be still parked near the original entrance.

    “Senior brother, shall we go back to Feizhou now?” Ji Hantong asked.

    Shen Lanchuan withdrew his gaze, looked at Ji Hantong, and handed the cyan shuttle to him: “Hantong, you go back to the sect on your own first.”

    Ji Hantong was stunned: “Senior brother, won’t you go back with me? Where are you going?”

    Shen Lanchuan raised his hand and straightened his hair, which was slightly messy by the mountain wind. His movements were natural and he said, “I may have to go to Zichen Valley first. That person just sent me the news.”

    That person refers to Shen Lanchuan’s father, Shen Fu, who is always nameless in the conversations between the two.

    Ji Hantong stared at him quietly and suddenly smiled brightly: “Okay, senior brother should come back early.”

    Shen Lanchuan was shuddered by this smile, and he subconsciously became nervous for some reason.

    “Okay…ok.”

    After watching Shen Lanchuan leave, Ji Hantong stayed where he was and didn’t move.System 0621 asked doubtfully: “Host, aren’t we leaving?”

    Ji Hantong suddenly sneered: “0621, how many points do I have now?”

    System 0621 didn’t know why, but it still answered honestly: “Host, you have obtained a total of 1,500 points from the two missions. Since you used 100 points, you still have 1,400 points left.”

    Ji Hantong nodded, and there was no wave in his voice: “Locate Shen Lanchuan’s position in real time for me, don’t worry about the consumption of points.”

    “Huh?” System 0621 said in surprise.

    Ji Hantong sneered, with coldness and anger in his eyes: “Senior brother has never lied, but this time even Shen Fu moved out. I’m not stupid enough not to notice that something is wrong. He must have wanted to take risks without telling me again.”

    System 0621 didn’t say anything more. After some operations, it broadcast Shen Lanchuan’s real-time positioning to Ji Hantong.

    Shen Lanchuan entered the Suxin secret realm again.

    When he found Mo Wuyi, Mo Wuyi was slowly wiping the Star-Shattering Sword.

    The Star-Shattering Sword, which was originally no different from a fire stick, slowly revealed its original appearance under his wiping, and the dirt and rust accumulated on the sword were peeled off bit by bit.

    The dark sword body is like a river of stars, with countless tiny and bright light spots flowing in it, flickering on and off indefinitely.

    “Now, does this look like the Star-Shattering Sword in your impression?” Mo Wuyi asked.

    Shen Lanchuan nodded, “Of course.”

    Mo Wuyi chuckled twice, shook his wrist slightly, and the Broken Star Sword pulled out several beautiful sword flowers in his palm.He raised his eyes and looked at Shen Lanchuan, raised his eyebrows and said, “I know that there are tigers in the mountains, but I prefer to go to the Tiger Mountains. Tell me, why did you come back?”

    “I have people I must protect, and I also have… reasons why I must make this world as stable and peaceful as possible.” Shen Lanchuan’s voice was not passionate, but his words were clear.

    He raised his eyes and looked at Mo Wuyi with a frank look: “I don’t know what you, or you, are hiding. And I don’t care.”

    After a pause, Shen Lanchuan added, “But I think our purpose is the same.”

    Mo Wuyi looked at him intently for a while, then suddenly laughed and shook his head: “That guy Daoxuan has indeed raised a good apprentice. If I were him, I wouldn’t be able to part with him.”

    “What are you reluctant to part with?”

    “It’s nothing,” Mo Wuyi put away Broken Star and walked out of the door first, “Let’s go, I’ll tell you on the way.”

    The huge Suxin Secret Realm is actually divided into two parts. One part is the small wooden house where Mo Wuyi is, with the mushroom forest as the boundary, and the other part is the territory of the dirty beast.

    “So what exactly is a dirty beast?” Shen Lanchuan asked this question again.

    Mo Wuyi kept walking and still shook his head: “I can’t answer you. You just need to know that they feed on the essence blood and pure spiritual energy of living creatures, and they will continue to assimilate other monsters.” He turned his head sideways, glanced at Shen Lanchuan, and said in a solemn tone, “Besides, they are difficult to kill.”

    Shen Lanchuan frowned: “Why is it that the Taixuan Dao Sect has never recorded such a dangerous thing? And there is no warning from the Immortal Alliance?”

    Mo Wuyi: “Because they haven’t gone out yet.”

    Shen Lanchuan was stunned, “That’s why you said we shouldn’t be here.”

    Mo Wuyi nodded: “Yes, this entire Suxin Secret Realm is actually a cage for them. According to the original plan, it will take at least a few hundred years for this place to be purified and turned into a real secret realm. Now I don’t know why you guys broke in.”

    “It’s okay for you and your junior brother to come to my place. As for the other people who broke into the territory of the dirty beast, they are probably dead now and interrupted the original purification process. They will really cause trouble for others.” Mo Wuyi tsked.

    Shen Lanchuan thought of a question: “Their deaths are also nourishment for the evil beast, right?”

    Mo Wuyi nodded, stopped, and said seriously to Shen Lanchuan: “I’ll ask you one last time, are you sure you want to follow?”

    “You have such a level of cultivation at this age. It can be said that you are a rare and proud person in the world. There is no need to wade into this muddy water.”

    Shen Lanchuan looked at him, his expression unchanged, and there was no hesitation in his eyes: “There is so much nonsense.”

    “Okay.” Mo Wuyi nodded, raised his hand and cast a spell to unlock the barrier outside the mushroom forest.

    Outside was an area shrouded in gray-white fog, and their vision was instantly compressed.Shen Lanchuan released his consciousness, but his consciousness seemed to be stuck in a quagmire, encountering great resistance, and there were bursts of tingling and dizziness. It was obvious that the mist itself was highly aggressive.

    There was dead silence in his ears, even the sound of the wind disappeared. Shen Lanchuan could only hear his own suppressed breathing and heartbeat.The filthy smell in the air became even stronger, as if there were countless tiny, malicious tentacles trying to get into his pores and erode his body.

    Shen Lanchuan immediately used his mental skills to prop up a protective spiritual light on the surface of his body.

    Mo Wuyi was obviously more adaptable to such an environment. He took out a bead from his sleeve and used his spiritual power to activate the bead.The bead emitted bright light, which naturally dispersed the surrounding fog, forming a semicircular barrier. He motioned for Shen Lanchuan to come closer.

    “Follow closely, don’t leave the scope of the light barrier,” Mo Wuyi’s voice sounded particularly clear in the dead silence, “This place is already on the outskirts of the filthy beast’s territory. The filth is strong. If you are exposed to it for a long time, even with your cultivation level, it will inevitably be eroded.”

    Shen Lanchuan approached as he was told and looked around sharply, but he was still a little surprised.

    “I thought I had few rivals in today’s world of cultivation. I didn’t expect that just the outside here would be so dangerous. Even I can’t easily pass through.”

    “You are indeed a genius that is rare to see in the world of cultivation for a thousand years, but boy,” Mo Wuyi’s tone showed no emotion or anger, “the last one, the last one, there were more than a hundred geniuses who died at the hands of dirty beasts, not to mention tens of millions. What’s the difference between you and them?”

    Shen Lanchuan was silent. Although he said those words deliberately to get something out of Mo Wuyi, he didn’t expect that the information he elicited would be so surprising.

    So many people died silently at the hands of evil beasts, but there was no news from the outside world. Is this possible?

    “Be careful where you step.” Mo Wuyi suddenly warned.

    Shen Lanchuan lowered his head and saw a few broken pieces of moon-white cloth stained with dark brown stains scattered on the ground not far ahead – the fragments of the robes worn by the Immortal Alliance monks.There are also some suspicious traces around the fragments that have dried and turned black, almost blending into the gray-brown earth, exuding a stronger fishy odor.

    Obviously, there had been fierce fighting, or one-sided massacre.

    Mo Wuyi didn’t stay long. He just paused slightly and threw a fireball. The cloth and traces quickly turned into fly ash, and the fishy smell also faded a lot.

    “Keep walking inside.” Mo Wuyi’s tone remained unchanged, as if he just dusted off the dust.

    The deeper you go, the thicker the fog becomes, almost to the point where you can’t even see your fingers.Shen Lanchuan could feel that there seemed to be some extremely small sounds coming from the surrounding mist, like the rustling of countless thin feet crawling across the rocks.

    These sounds were far and near, erratic, mixed in the dead silence, adding to the strangeness and oppression.

    “They have discovered us.” Mo Wuyi whispered, holding the Broken Star Sword tightly, “These should be just some low-level filth that have been corroded by the escaping filth. There is nothing to be afraid of, but there may be a lot of them. Don’t be reluctant to fight.”

    Shortly after Shen Lanchuan and Mo Wuyi left the cabin, Ji Hantong also arrived at the cabin.

    The place had been cleaned and was very clean and tidy, but Ji Hantong always felt like something was missing.

    “Zhizhi——”

    A subtle cry came from the pile of wood. Ji Hantong followed the sound and saw the little Xueyun fox peeking out.

    He walked over and touched Xueyunhu’s head, “You are still here.”

    Xueyun Fox squeaked twice more, tugged on Ji Hantong’s trousers, and then…

    It hit its head on the stove.

    Ji Hantong’s eyes widened, and a question mark slowly popped up in his mind.

    ah?No, why did you die?
