They All Deeply Regretted It After I Became Indifferent - They All Deeply Regretted It After I Became Indifferent chapter 68

Today is the day the Demon Clan’s secret realm opens.

The location of the secret realm is three hundred li north of Tianxing City.

Following the Lin family’s team, they traveled all the way, and Lin Mo learned quite a bit from Lin Qingqing along the road.

Besides their Lin family, the Nangong family, Xia family, Jiang family, and Zhu family would also participate.

Only a hundred people could enter the secret realm, and each family had a quota of twenty people.

Due to the extreme danger of the secret realm, only the younger generation of the Lin family with cultivation at the Foundation Building stage could participate.

As originally planned, the leader of the team was Lin Changjian, with a cultivation at the early stage of the Golden Core.

Everyone set off before dawn, and it was nearly noon when they arrived at the location of the Yao Clan’s secret realm.

Apart from the Lin family, the Jiang family and Nangong family had also arrived.

When enemies meet, their eyes blaze with hatred.

Seeing Lin Mo arrive, Nangong Xu took the initiative to provoke him: “The secret realm is not so easy to traverse. I hope you watch your step once inside, lest you ‘stumble’ by accident.”

Lin Mo had no good face for this hypocrite, responding coldly: “Scram.”

Nangong Xu suppressed the rage in his heart, as now was not the time for a brawl. After a cold snort, he decided that once inside the secret realm, he would definitely tear Lin Mo to pieces.

In his view, Lin Mo was merely a dual spirit root talent, at most capable of forming a sixth-grade Golden Core.

While he was already at the mid-stage of the Golden Core, with a seventh-grade core formation, practicing the Xuanming Hall’s high-grade earth-level technique, and equipped with many protective talismans given by his master.

In the secret realm, it would be effortless to play him to death.

Jiang Yanran, however, did not approach, observing Lin Mo from a distance with indifference.

She had intended to make some amends to the other party, to let bygones be bygones, but his remarks a few days ago, insulting her in front of everyone, had thoroughly torn their relationship apart.

The girl in white saw through Jiang Yanran’s thoughts and whispered a reminder, “Don’t forget, our master sent me to follow you to help you gain greater benefits in the secret realm. Don’t let a moment of impulse delay the important matters.”

Jiang Yanran reined in her thoughts and respectfully said, “Yes, Senior Sister.”

The true identity of the girl in white was the external incarnation of Gu Qianxue, the palace master of the Hanbing Palace.

Knowing the needs of the secret realm, she specifically set the age of this external incarnation at twenty-three.

At this age, she possessed the full strength of the Golden Core stage, while her true self was a True Monarch of the Union stage.

Even though the external incarnation was at the full strength of the Golden Core stage, she could easily slay demon beasts of the Nascent Soul or even the Spirit Division stages.

Of course, she did not inform Jiang Yanran of this, merely saying that this external incarnation was her senior sister.

This was why Lin Mo felt danger and dissonance from this person.

As time ticked by, the people from the Xia family also arrived.

“Xiaxia, it’s Senior Brother!” Qu Ruyan pointed at Lin Mo, shouting excitedly.

Hearing this familiar voice, Lin Mo shuddered.

The next moment, he saw Qu Ruyan bouncing over to him, lowering her head to nuzzle his hand with her face, “Senior Brother, I’ve missed you so much!”

The people around were shocked by this action.

Lin Qingqing asked in astonishment, “Uncle Lin Mo, who is this?”

“She’s my junior sister.”

As he spoke, Lin Mo pushed Qu Ruyan’s face away slightly, “Why are you here?”

Who knows what got into this girl, using her face to rub against his hand.

Qu Ruyan explained, “I came with Xiaxia.”

Lin Mo’s gaze shifted to the Xia family’s group, and indeed, Xia He was among them.

Seeing him look over, Xia He stepped forward in surprise, “Senior Brother, it turns out you’re from the Lin family…”

Lin Mo responded with a faint ‘Hmm’.

Compared to Shen Ke’er, he was still able to have a slight exchange with Xia He.

If not, then a slap would suffice for communication.

“You’re taking Qu Ruyan into the secret realm?”

Xia He shook her head, “This time when I went home, Yanyan secretly followed me. I had no idea…”

Qu Ruyan pouted, “I just thought the sect was boring, so I went to Qingzhu Peak to find Senior Brother, but you weren’t there. Seeing you were about to leave, I secretly followed.”

With that, she became excited again, “I just didn’t expect to meet Senior Brother here.”

Lin Mo frowned, “You didn’t discuss this with your own master?”

“Ah, should I have?” Qu Ruyan blinked, somewhat surprised.

Lin Mo facepalmed, seeing in Qu Ruyan’s eyes what he called ‘a light untainted by knowledge,’ or simply, idiocy.

“Senior brother, I still want some candy.”

Lin Mo couldn’t bring himself to be angry at the girl.

He spent two hundred regret points to randomly draw another pack of candy from the system and tossed it to Qu Ruyan, instructing, “Later, when we enter the secret realm, you follow my Lin family’s team back.”

He didn’t feel comfortable letting this girl return to the sect alone.

It would be better for him to personally escort her back after the secret realm.

That’s what Lin Mo thought.

Nangong Xu, on the other hand, frowned upon seeing Lin Mo’s good relations with the Xia family.

If he could get the Xia family’s help in the secret realm, Lin Mo wouldn’t be so easy to deal with.

The man leading the Xia family’s team was urging Xia He to rejoin the group.

“Senior brother, I’ll go back first.” After greeting, Xia He returned to the side of the team leader, who then gave Lin Mo a deep look.

The five great noble families and the four major clans had all arrived.

Only the Zhu family was yet to come.

As the time to open the secret realm drew nearer, everyone grew increasingly restless.

Suddenly, a dozen figures swiftly flew towards them from the sky.

The woman leading them descended on her sword and stood before everyone, saying lightly, “Fellow daoists, thank you for waiting.”

Seeing that the leader was Zhu Shiyao, no one dared to show their earlier irritation, and all began to force smiles.

In their eyes, this was a person not to be provoked.

Years ago, Zhu Shiyao enjoyed challenging the geniuses of their families in turn.

With her innate sword embryo physique, she had beaten the talented descendants of each noble family to a pulp.

These team-leading disciples had all been on the receiving end of Zhu Shiyao’s beatings.

They had hoped that after reaching the Core Formation stage, their situation would improve, but with Zhu Shiyao achieving the eighth rank of Core Formation, they had no chance of fighting back; they were mere punching bags.

Especially after hearing that she had challenged a Nascent Soul genius shortly after entering the Golden Core stage and had not been at a disadvantage.

Everyone regarded Zhu Shiyao as ‘the young generation’s most untouchable figure in the cultivation world, No.1,’ and in their hearts, they called her the female demon.

The young elites present knew that despite Zhu Shiyao’s extremely ladylike appearance, once a fight started, she was terrifying.

Jiang Yanran, looking at Zhu Shiyao, also had to lower her head.

She was considered a rare genius among the younger generation.

From noble mtl dot nete

Compared to Zhu Shiyao, she still pales in comparison, having been beaten numerous times even after forming her core.

Not to mention that her golden core quality is one grade less than her opponent’s, the latter also possesses the extremely rare mutated Ice Spirit Root among the Heavenly Spirit Roots, and even has a physique related to the sword path.

With such demonic talent, in front of her, Jiang Yanran indeed has nothing to be proud of.

Moreover, the opponent’s appearance is not inferior to hers.

While everyone was slightly bowing their heads, not wanting to meet Zhu Shiyao’s gaze.

Suddenly, Zhu Shiyao’s excited voice could be heard.

“Lin Daoist friend, you’re here too!”
