Hearing this, Bai’s face instantly turned pale.

She was aware of Wei Ying’s current strength.

How could an existence like Ye Chen make Wei Ying feel fear?

Could it be that she had misjudged Ye Chen?

“Let’s go, Bai. I want to see what has been left behind in the Juehan Palace’s forbidden land.”

“Perhaps this place contains what I need to reach the peak of the Lingwu Continent!”

Wei Ying then entered the depths of the ice cave.

Darkness…

No one knew what was in the depths!

…

In the Heavenly Fire Family’s settlement, which was quite a distance away from the Burning Sky Family, Zhou Yan of the Mystic Moon Sect was talking to a member of the Heavenly Fire Family in a secluded place.

Zhou Yan smiled. “Brother Zhao Kui, we meet again. As expected, you’re still the one selected to participate in the competition this year.”

“What?” Zhao Kui stared at Zhou Yan and revealed a faint smile. “Is there someone else you want me to help you deal with?”

Zhou Yan was also a participant of the Heavenly Fire Family in the previous Martial Arts Competition. When the disciples of the Mystic Moon Sect were teleported to this place, the same people would be teleported to the same family, which is why Zhou Yan ended up here again.

Generally speaking, it was forbidden to use lethal force in the martial arts competition. However, accidents were inevitable sometimes.

However, if both combatants were disciples of the Mystic Moon Sect, they would still have to bear the consequences if they harmed their fellow disciples.

Zhou Yan obviously did not want this to happen. However, some people had to die. In this case, Ye Chen!

Therefore, he had come looking for Zhao Kui. Most of the people in the hidden realm possessed a kind of tribal honor.

Normally, they would not accept a bribe to kill other participants of the martial arts competition, as this was an insult to the sacred competition.

However, there were naturally people who were willing to give up their honor for the sake of benefits. When Zhou Yan first met Zhao Kui, he was certain that this fellow was such a person.

This was because Zhao Kui and he had the same character.

Moreover, Zhao Kui was very strong.

He was the strongest expert of the younger generation of the Heavenly Fire Family, which made him the perfect partner.

In the end, the last time, Zhao Kui agreed to his request and killed a disciple of the Mystic Moon Sect. Once that happened, it was naturally easier for him to convince Zhao Kui a second time.

In the previous transaction, Zhao Kui had obtained a precious artifact, which was an extremely rare item in this secluded realm!

Just crushing an ant had given him such a huge benefit, so Zhao Kui could not wait for Zhou Yan to try and bribe him again.

Zhou Yan looked at Zhao Kui’s greedy face and smiled. He took out a spirit axe that exuded an extraordinary aura and threw it over to Zhao Kui. “This is a spirit axe that is close to the level of a spacetime artifact. I paid an extremely high price to obtain it.”

“I’ll give it to you first. If you successfully kill that person, the person supporting me will give you a spacetime artifact.”

Zhao Kui received the spirit axe with a look of ecstasy. He caressed the axe and laughed loudly. “Hahahaha! Don’t worry, Brother Zhou! I won’t let you down!”

Zhou Yan nodded and did not say anything else.

Originally, those who could participate in the secret disciple trial were mostly the disciples of Star Aperture realm elders. As for Zhou Yan, who was the disciple of Zhao Ping, a peak-level Creation realm expert, the reason why he could participate in the secret realm trial was not because of his talent.

Zhou Yan’s talent was very good. Even in a first-rate sect like the Mystic Moon Sect, he could be considered a true genius. However, among the true disciples, Zhou Yan’s talent could only be considered average.

The reason why he was able to become one of the participants of this secret realm trial was because he had Zhao Ping’s full support!

In terms of cultivation resources, many disciples of the Star Aperture realm elders could not be compared to Zhou Yan!

Therefore, Zhou Yan’s strength gradually surpassed the other true disciples and became one of the ten participants of this trial.

However, Zhou Yan also knew that although he had sacrificed his body to win Zhao Ping’s favor, he knew that as time passed, Zhao Ping’s feelings for him would slowly cool down.

Therefore, he told himself that he had to continuously satisfy Zhao Ping and solve the problems that troubled her. He had to gain Zhao Ping’s trust to the point that she would not be able to leave him!

A twisted smile gradually appeared on Zhou Yan’s handsome face.

The descendants of these ancient experts had been isolated from the outside world for too long. The spirit axe was very valuable, and it was enough to make the other party so happy that he could not close his mouth. However, the other party would never know how much he would obtain from Zhao Ping after he killed Ye Chen!

Ye Chen was an ant who had just joined the Mystic Moon Sect. He had crippled Zhao Ping’s junior and made Zhao Ping hate him immensely. However, she was also helpless to deal with him. If Zhou Yan killed Ye Chen for her, then he would undoubtedly become a hero in Zhao Ping’s heart, and he would likely gain her unswerving trust.

Zhao Kui suddenly noticed Zhou Yan’s perverted smile. He felt an inexplicable chill run down his spine. He said in a daze, “Brother Zhou, why are you smiling so wretchedly? It even makes me want to puke.”

Zhou Yan’s expression stiffened. He stopped smiling and said, “Let’s go back quickly. It’s time for the family head to bring us to the competition venue.”

…

The Martial Arts Competition was held in the center of the secluded realm.

At this moment, many people had already gathered. They were all clansmen from various families who had come to watch the martial arts competition.

In the sky above the competition venue, a huge crystal floated. This crystal was the third eye of a peak-level Creation realm demonic beast, the Heavenly Eye Python!

It was to transmit the results of the competition to the various families. In this way, even those who did not come to see the competition could watch how it played out.

Such an ancient item could only be found here!

At this moment, a huge black eagle landed in front of a huge stone house behind the venue. Fen Tiangang then led Ye Chen and the others into the stone house.

Ye Chen entered the room and saw that there were quite a few people inside. It seemed that most of the participants had arrived.

What caught Ye Chen’s attention the most was a burly old man sitting at the head of the table. His eyes were closed, his hair and beard were white, and he looked extremely muscular.

This old man’s aura was actually stronger than Fen Tiangang’s!

It seemed that this old man’s status was higher than the family heads. As it turned out, he was also the host of this Martial Arts Competition.

Not long after Ye Chen and the others arrived, a few more families arrived one after another.

The old man suddenly opened his eyes. His sharp gaze swept across everyone present. He smiled and said, “The quality of the participants in this year’s competition is not bad. Follow me.”
