Main Character:

Shen Yao

Facts proved that there was no great difference between Secret Realms, especially the Secret Realm Entrances.

Shen Yao looked at the vortex-like patterns before her and thought in her heart that these Secret Realm Entrances had not a shred of creativity; they ought to be the kind that catch one off guard.

System: ……

"Host, this isn't the Secret Realm we're supposed to enter, is it?" The System found Qingchuan truly miraculous, that it could actually hide so many Secret Realms inside.

"Of course," Shen Yao scanned a circle around her surroundings, and just in the moment she looked, several more Secret Realms manifested vortex patterns around her, clearly signs that Secret Realms were about to open.

Lu Yan waved his hand at Shen Yao; this time they had come to the Qingchuan Secret Realm, and in terms of preparation they were far more thorough than when they were in Lian Tang City.

Including all food and drink and possible problems upon entering the Secret Realm, Lu Yan had prepared countermeasures in advance for all of them; even Shen Yao, upon hearing, exclaimed that Lu Yan had grown a lot — it seemed the setback in the Lian Tang Secret Realm had indeed taken effect.

"Lu Yan"

Shen Yao raised her hand and hugged Lu Yan's arm, following with a low-voice reminder to this group of people before them that some among them harbored ulterior motives: "Only pay attention to the people entering the Secret Realm, not the Secret Realm itself."

It was plainly evident that their target was not the Secret Realm but those people who would very likely reap an abundant harvest.

Lu Yan raised an eyebrow: "They are merely some cowardly, greedy rat scum."

Robber cultivators, in the final analysis, just want something for nothing; rather than risking life and limb inside a Secret Realm, better to wait outside like a stump-waiting rabbit.

The reason Qingchuan's robber cultivators are famous is because they have done every evil deed, dare not face true danger, yet dare raise the butcher's knife and charge at their own kin.

Lu Yan utterly despised this sort of people; Shen Yao's thoughts, though not as extreme as Lu Yan's, also disliked these robber cultivators very much. Coldly watching herself being treated as a soft persimmon, Shen Yao suddenly smiled gently, and one good idea after another popped up in her heart.

Without needing to look, Lu Yan knew Shen Yao had a belly full of bad water waiting to frame people; he only reminded her in a low voice not to go too far in her conduct: "These people are fiercely cruel, most loving to bully the weak." If they truly ran into someone stronger than themselves, they would concede especially fast.

Shen Yao blinked her eyes: "Rest assured, I have a count in my heart."

Lu Yan: ……

Not afraid of anything else, just afraid Shen Yao has a count in her heart — this person may look harmless, but whether in the Lian Tang Secret Realm or along the journey to Qingchuan, Shen Yao's certain conduct styles had startled Lu Yan again and again.

Fearing Lu Yan following by her side would be an obstacle, Shen Yao's little head moved, then she bypassed Lu Yan, picked up the Blazing Flame Lion at her side, raised her hand and stroked it.

Blazing Flame Lion: ……??

The comfortably lying Blazing Flame Lion's pair of eyes went blank, not understanding what the Great Demon King was up to.

What was she up to?

Naturally, feigning weakness to lure those greedy little mice onto the hook.

"Can it work?" The System didn't believe it; the vast majority of robber cultivators would not enter a Secret Realm.

Why the vast majority? Because a small portion, comparatively greedier, would still follow along; compared to killing, robbing, and destroying corpses outside, of course doing this kind of fatal business inside a Secret Realm is most suitable, because it's not easy to be discovered.

But the reason robber cultivators hide outside to rob is that they fear the risks inside Secret Realms; therefore only a very small portion of robber cultivators would climb walls and take risks pursuing high returns.

"How can it not work? Look at my getup and my public persona — it would be hard not to be tempted."

After all, Shen Yao's whole body wrote the message "I have money, come rob me"; as long as one harbored greedy thoughts, who would be willing to miss a fat sheep?

System: ……

The System just watched its own Host bouncing about, deliberately exposing the various treasures she carried on her person before those robber cultivators.

Robber Cultivators: ……

Tsk tsk tsk

Didn't expect another Rich Woman to come to the Qingchuan Secret Realm — this one is truly rich.

Pair after pair of eyes were hooked by Shen Yao, unable to look away.

Seeing her objective quickly achieved, Shen Yao returned to the Camp with great satisfaction.

At this time Lu Yan had already prepared all the things needed for the Secret Realm; the two of them had one portion each, so even if they couldn't stay together, they wouldn't worry excessively.

"The Secret Realm we're going to opens in three days; when the time comes, the people entering will be extremely many," because that Secret Realm has always produced important spirit resources — even if not for self-use, they can be taken out and sold for trade.

Lu Yan looked at Shen Yao, wanting to speak but stopping; in the end he still pursed his lips and reminded her to pay attention to safety: "I know your capabilities are outstanding, but a Secret Realm is no ordinary place." Any sinister means can be used inside a Secret Realm.

A Secret Realm is like a place the Heavenly Dao specially left out that has no rules whatsoever; people inside do whatever they want — even a Secret Realm with no output at all has a casualty rate that has always remained high.

Lu Yan also didn't know why, but suddenly felt somewhat worried that Shen Yao might meet with mishap in the Secret Realm, even though he knew the possibility was small.

"Tsk tsk tsk, this is having feelings," Sure enough, facing a beautiful woman who suits one's taste, no man can avoid being moved.

This was the first time Lu Yan had seen Shen Yao act so composed; now she worried about this and feared that at every turn — someone who didn't know would think Shen Yao was the cultivator and Lu Yan was the companion beast bound to her by soul.

The System hid in Shen Yao's mind babbling complaints; one could see these past days it had been influenced by surrounding people quite a lot — after all, for artificial intelligence to approach humans, it needs to receive more of the seven emotions and six desires.

Mixed desires churned, thoughts were led astray; the System didn't know its own abnormality, it thought these were merely the norm, just like humans need daily food.

"Lu Sir"

Timely someone came over to find Lu Yan, also pulling Shen Yao out of the slightly ambiguous atmosphere.

Shen Yao: ……

Raising her head to watch Lu Yan leave, Shen Yao lightly patted her own cheeks, *hu*, it was still a bit embarrassing.

The Blazing Flame Lion lay curiously on Shen Yao, not understanding why the Great Demon King had become so bashful — could it be something happened that it didn't know about?

"Host, they're coming, they're coming!" Quickly restrain your emotions.

Shen Yao heard the movement, subconsciously raised her head and swept a glance around herself; the robber cultivators she had attracted earlier all took positions — although their gazes didn't stare fixedly at her, their peripheral vision kept aiming here.

Shen Yao couldn't help the corner of her mouth curling up: "Look, this is human nature."

When the interests at stake are large enough, whatever fear, whatever weighing — none of it counts.

System: ……

The System held a moment of silence for these robber cultivators; although robber cultivators have a flavor of deserving death, just thinking that in the Secret Realm they would be toyed with in all sorts of ways by its own Host, the System still felt great pity for these people.

Sigh.

Whoever you offend is bad enough, but you had to offend your own Host!

The System seemed like an old man who had long since seen through worldly affairs, a pair of eyes revealing a wise light.

"You're not Ultraman, do you have eyes?" Rolling her eyes at the unreliable System, Shen Yao buried her head and continued stroking the Flaming Lion's little head, until Lu Yan returned, and those Calamity Cultivators' actions began to become restrained.

…………

Three days' time passed in a flash, and Lu Yan finally waited for the Secret Realm he wanted to enter.

Vortex-shaped patterns appeared out of thin air before a tall, sturdy tree, faintly emitting an inexplicable suction force outward.

Lu Yan grabbed Shen Yao's wrist, and the two walked into the vortex following the crowd moving forward.

The whole process was even more comfortable than the Lian Tang Secret Realm, to the point that Shen Yao didn't even notice when the two people let go of their hands.

"Roar"

The Flaming Lion lay obediently in Shen Yao's arms, its whole body of smooth fur puffing out into a hairball.

At this moment, one person and one beast stood on a not-too-high hillside, surrounded by wild grass just past the knees, and not far away a few pretty white small flowers were blooming.

A gentle breeze blew by from time to time, not only lifting the broken hair on both sides of Shen Yao's cheeks, but also lifting Shen Yao's hem.

The Flaming Lion in her arms had already flown out, and after returning to normal size it encircled Shen Yao within its own territory; distant flames emerged from the Flaming Lion's body, and the surrounding air began to be scorched into some distortion.

Shen Yao had no other movements; she was listening intently, even though not a shred of movement transmitted from the surroundings.

After a long while, Shen Yao suddenly flew up out of thin air; the Flaming Lion gave an "aowu" cry and sprayed orange flames forward; muffled explosion sounds came from the air, as well as a scorched smell after the explosion.

Just like something had been roasted cooked, somewhat stinky yet also fragrant.

They are Cao Di Demon Rats.

A kind of creature that likes to grow in grasslands, gregarious, omnivorous, without any reason, only possessing an attacking instinct.

"Roar!"

The Flaming Lion continued spraying flames; everywhere they reached was this smell.

Shen Yao formed a hand seal to disperse the smell before her eyes, then directly flew toward the distant forest, leaving the Flaming Lion alone, one beast facing layer upon layer, continuous and unending Cao Di Demon Rats.

The Cao Di Demon Rats' gregarious nature means that once you provoke this race, you will be endlessly entangled.

The Flaming Lion somewhat irritably spat fire snakes; those Cao Di Demon Rats seemed unafraid of death, even if the front rats were burned to ashes and smoke, the rear rats still bravely charged forward — is this the fearlessness of having no reason?

Shen Yao tapped her knuckles in the air; she glanced at the jungle behind her, and low-key summoned the Flaming Lion back.

A larger explosion sound came from not far away — fierce fire meeting heat blasting through the air, bringing along air waves that blasted a large deep pit in the grassland before her eyes.

Without looking back, it ran to Shen Yao's front; the Flaming Lion sharply shrank and hid in Shen Yao's arms, its forepaws still covering its head, quite having a "covering one's ears while stealing a bell" flavor.

Shen Yao: ……

Calmly taking out a stack of Talisman Paper from space, Shen Yao threw them at the Cao Di Demon Rats pouncing toward her; instantly, a transparent thin film rapidly extended outward, also blocking the Cao Di Demon Rats' offense.

That transparent thin film, though light and thin, was very tough; with the Cao Di Demon Rats' capability, they could not break through in a short time.

Shen Yao had no intention of exterminating them all; after all, creatures like Cao Di Demon Rats are just like batch after batch of "wildfire cannot burn them all, spring wind blows and they grow again" wild grass — even if thoroughly cleared, next time they come there will still be Cao Di Demon Rats appearing.

Turning around and holding the Flaming Lion, she walked into the woods; Shen Yao suddenly called out to the System in her mind.

"Confirm Lu Yan's position, and keep an eye on those Calamity Cultivators' movements."

A Secret Realm can count as a three-no-man's-land; anything goes inside.

Thinking of those Calamity Cultivators who entered for her, Shen Yao felt she couldn't let these Calamity Cultivators wait too long; you must know she is very warm and hospitable.

"……Host, this is what you call warm and hospitable?"

Truly warm and hospitable — evil guests arrive and you first beat them up?

The System looked at the unlucky Calamity Cultivator who had already fainted, life and death unknown, and thought: whose idea was bad to hit, but you had to pick your own Host's soft persimmon.

Now discovering the soft persimmon is not soft at all, even quite prickly, hmph hmph hmph, regret it now.

"Spare, spare my life!"

"Too late."

With a bang, another Calamity Cultivator was knocked unconscious by Shen Yao's punch; Shen Yao moved her wrist, took a deep breath, followed by having the System monitor the surroundings, while she herself moved to search for loot on them.

"Tsk, trash, tsk, useless, tsk, not worth much money at all."

What's with these Calamity Cultivators? They come in to rob but bring nothing? Are they confident or just reckless? Could it be that after she worked hard fighting a battle, she still has to pay money out of her own pocket?

Shen Yao deeply felt her life was bitter; busy and bustling she thought she'd hooked a pack of rich fat wolves, but their pockets were cleaner than their faces.

Shen Yao unwillingly continued searching, but had to admit she didn't have the fate to strike it rich; these Calamity Cultivators really came in empty-handed.

"Hahahaha"

The System laughed wildly without limit in her mind, mainly because situations where the Host suffers a loss are few; these Calamity Cultivators were also an accidental coincidence.

Having the Flaming Lion help wake these Calamity Cultivators one by one, Shen Yao questioned each about what she wanted to know; those who cooperated obediently got a quick death, those who didn't cooperate were left for the Flaming Lion to torment — anyway, Calamity Cultivators' hands are all unclean, Shen Yao doing this is also eliminating harm for the people.

"……Burn them, remember to burn them clean."

"Roar"

Streaks of orange-red flames quickly fell on these corpses; in just a moment, only a ground of ashes remained.

The ashes scattered away with a blow of wind; wanting to find traces would be difficult.

Shen Yao patted her hands, caught the Flaming Lion pouncing into her arms, and under the System's instruction chose a direction, continuing to go find the other Calamity Cultivators.

The Calamity Cultivators who entered the Secret Realm encountered their most severe enemy.

Shen Yao fundamentally didn't go easy; any Calamity Cultivator whose hands were stained with human lives all couldn't escape a death, and conveniently after death they still had to be destroyed body and traces, completely enjoying the boomerang belonging to them.

Begging for mercy was fine, interest exchange was fine, opening mouth to threaten was also not a few.

Shen Yao fundamentally didn't listen and didn't fear, just like this she killed all the way along, until meeting up with Lu Yan in the Secret Realm; the Calamity Cultivators in the Secret Realm only had a few left, the vast majority all died in Shen Yao's hands.

Lu Yan: ……

Lu Yan and the Gale Wolf were still searching for Spirit Resources; the Black Feather Snake was coiled steadily on Lu Yan's wrist, unless encountering a more troublesome trouble, it would absolutely not show its face to attack.

It was also because of the Black Feather Snake, this hidden trump card, that the various troubles Lu Yan encountered in the Secret Realm were all resolved; now that Shen Yao and Lu Yan have gathered, Lu Yan is like one who does not fear the dangers in the Secret Realm.

But "these things of yours" are all from calamity cultivators?

"Also rather pitiful, but fortunately there is a harvest," Shen Yao rather casually handed over the Jade Slip among them to Lu Yan, "Inside is the Qingchuan Secret Realm's information; I saw they hid it tightly, who knows if it is some secret."

Calamity cultivators' information source channels are relatively many; inside there are not few true and false messages.

Shen Yao had Lu Yan pay attention to distinguishing them herself; it would be best to be able to gather a sum from within, and not let her hard work moving once be in vain.
