Chapter 415: Sword Son of the Sword Sect, Free Bodyguard!

Just as Ye Bai and the others stepped out from Zhang Wei's 【Air Person】 shared state, another unexpected event occurred!

Then, with a "swish," an untimely sound of wind being torn apart suddenly rang out from above the valley, and a long rainbow streaked past at an astonishing speed.

A cultivator, of all things, happened to be passing over the valley just as Ye Bai's group reappeared...

And that cultivator, after speeding away for a distance, realized that the place they had just passed was a bit off.

In another blink of an eye, the long rainbow returned to directly above the valley!

It transformed into a youth with a long sword strapped to his back, dressed in black, with an exceptionally cold temperament!

"I didn't see wrong; there is an entrance to a Different Space here.

I really didn't expect that, even though the Outer Region of the Secret Realm is so vast and the opportunities are so scattered, it would still be this easy to run into a new opportunity."

The youth looked down at the entrance to the Different Space below and said softly first!

"You are called Ye Bai and Situ Chengdao, right?

Two new disciples of the Dao Foundation Realm from Langlang Mountain, and the kind that are at the very bottom of the Dao Foundation Realm at that."

The youth then looked at Ye Bai and Situ Chengdao, having recognized these two who had stirred up countless undercurrents outside the Secret Realm the moment they appeared!

"Swish!"

Ye Bai and Situ Chengdao's expressions sank in an instant!

And at this moment, they looked at each other.

No words were spoken, but their thoughts no longer needed any further description.

They were both thinking of attacking together to take down this sword-bearing youth as quickly as possible!

He appeared to be a Righteous Cultivator, and for now, he did not show murderous intent upon arrival like the few cultivators from the Crow Sect who were driven by the rewards promised by their sect, so there was no need to kill him.

But at the very least, they had to make this sword-bearing youth wait here until Ye Bai had digested the opportunity within the Time Secret Realm before letting him go!

However.

Before Ye Bai and Situ Chengdao could even begin to act.

"Ye Bai, Brother Situ, stay calm! Don't be impulsive!"

Wang Xiaopang's voice transmission rang out in the ears of Ye Bai and Situ Chengdao simultaneously!

"Is this person very strong?"

Ye Bai and Situ Chengdao looked at Li Qingqing and the others at this moment, and it was clear to see that the expressions of Li Qingqing and the others were not looking good!

Because of that suddenly appearing sword-bearing youth!

Clearly, the sword-bearing youth was not as simple as Ye Bai and Situ Chengdao had imagined...

"Very strong, extremely strong!"

Li Qingqing then sent a voice transmission, verifying the guess of Ye Bai and Situ Chengdao.

As it turned out, the sword-bearing youth's name was Dongguoming!

He was a disciple of the Sword Sect, one of the Nine Sects of the Righteous Path!

He was also the strongest existence among the many disciples sent by the Sword Sect for this Secret Realm Trial! He was the contemporary Sword Son of the Sword Sect!

He was at the Dao Foundation Peak, with combat power not a bit weaker than that of Gui San!

"Ye Bai, we might have to give up on this opportunity..."

"Although Dongguoming is a Righteous Cultivator and a disciple of the Sword Sect known for his integrity, he won't try to kill you like the cultivators you encountered before, but you also know that because of your status as Langlang Mountain disciples... not to mention there is an opportunity here."

Li Qingqing sent another voice transmission, her tone even more grave.

Dongguoming was too strong; he belonged to the ceiling of the cultivators in this Secret Realm Trial!

"How could this be..."

Ye Bai knew that Li Qingqing's words were reasonable; he was just feeling unwilling at this moment—how could they run into Dongguoming at a time like this!

However.

Just as Ye Bai had accepted giving up this opportunity and was prepared to share the 【Air Person】 state with everyone again to leave the valley in the next second.

Another unexpected thing happened...

Dongguoming spoke up again, asking Situ Chengdao directly:

"How much time do you need to step into the Dao Foundation Third Stage?"

Situ Chengdao answered subconsciously, "Why ask that?"

"You are too weak right now; it is not enough for me to draw my sword and attack you.

But I also want to fulfill my master's instructions, so I want to wait until you have stepped into the Dao Foundation Third Stage before fighting you."

Dongguoming actually said!

"This?"

Ye Bai and the others were all stunned.

Even Li Qingqing and Wang Xiaopang, who had obtained information on Dongguoming in advance, were the same.

Although they knew that the disciples of the Sword Sect were incredibly upright, they really hadn't expected Dongguoming to be upright to this extent!

There was no possibility that Dongguoming was putting on an act; the other party's strength, on par with Gui San, was right there. If he didn't truly want to give Situ Chengdao a chance to step into the Dao Foundation Third Stage, he could have simply drawn his sword!

"This Dongguoming is somewhat to my liking!"

Among the Four Sages Doll, one of the Four Sages' wills that had been observing the outside world, Jiansheng, even said this!

"Brother Bai, what do you say?"

Situ Chengdao sent a voice transmission to Ye Bai at this moment, asking whether to answer Dongguoming's question or to follow the original plan and temporarily avoid the sharp edge.

"It seems we don't need to rush to leave; Brother Situ, you can answer his question."

Ye Bai decided this time.

"Half a month, one month at most."

Situ Chengdao then also told Dongguoming the time he would need to step into the Dao Foundation Third Stage.

"One month at most? This Secret Realm Trial lasts for a total of two months; although it takes up half the time, being able to complete Master's task means it's not a loss."

"Good! Then I will wait for you here for one month!"

Dongguoming said again, and he truly did not make a move, instead preparing to wait for Situ Chengdao's strength to increase before fighting Situ Chengdao!

"Um, this fellow Daoist, are you planning to just wait here?" Ye Bai rolled his eyes and asked.

"Yes."

"Then this opportunity..."

"If I hadn't run into you, I would have gone to find other disciples of my Sword Sect to take the opportunity here.

But since I ran into you, and I only have to wait for one month at most, I have no interest in the opportunity here anymore."

"Not only that, Ye Bai, if you are confident that you can also possess the combat power to fight me during this Secret Realm Trial, I have the locations of two other opportunities here that you can go take yourself."

After some conversation, Dongguoming added.

"This is truly 'a willow tree, a bright flower, and another village'!"

"Moreover, Dongguoming not only has no intention of making a move or snatching the opportunity, he even wants to gift me opportunities!"

Ye Bai had not expected Dongguoming to answer this way and was immediately overjoyed.

He only felt that Dongguoming's upright character was truly excellent!

"I indeed have a certain degree of confidence that I can possess the ability to fight you head-on during the Secret Realm Trial!"

Saying this, Ye Bai decided to first obtain the two opportunity locations Dongguoming mentioned, and then let Li Qingqing and the others go acquire them.

He had to kill Gui San anyway, and even without this matter with Dongguoming, he would have found a way to raise his combat power to the Dao Foundation Peak!

As for Li Qingqing and the others leaving, and Situ Chengdao needing to attempt to step into the Dao Foundation Third Stage, there would be no one to guard the entrance to the Different Space for the time being...

Dongguoming remained standing in the air, with no intention of descending at all.

This Sword Sect disciple was still a powerful, free-of-charge bodyguard!
