I tried to kill the heroines of destiny, but they ended up chasing after me.

Huang Quan might even think that last night was all a dream.

Chapter Seventy-One Maid Outfit

Huang Quan was still reflecting on whether his actions the previous night fell into the category of being worse than a beast.

"Thump! Boom!"

A rapid knocking at the door interrupted his thoughts.

Who could be looking for him so early in the morning?

Could it be Ah Qi?

What kind of strange cultivation materials are needed this time?

That shouldn't be the case. How could two hundred top-grade spirit stones be used up so quickly?

Immediately afterward, before he could even get up to open the door or respond with a "come in," she was already there.

"Boom."

"Clang."

"Clang!"

Huang Quan: ? ? ?

The so-called "courtesy before force".

That's roughly what it means right now.

Liu Xiyao waited for a few seconds, but there was no sound from inside the house.

He couldn't wait any longer and kicked the door open.

The wooden door made a jarring sound and swayed precariously.

Driven by inertia, it traces an arc in the air.

Finally, it slammed hard against the table, overturning it.

Along with the four or five exquisite porcelain tea sets that were placed on the table, they were smashed to the ground, shattering into pieces.

A small head peeked out from outside the door, its sleepy eyes scanning the room, clearly indicating that it had just woken up.

She first swept over the mess inside the house.

Then, he shifted his gaze slightly upwards and met Huang Quan's puzzled look.

Only then did he realize that he had caused trouble again.

He muttered to himself, "Why is the quality of this door so poor? I didn't even use much force."

He quickly pulled his head back in.

They vanished in a flash.

"This guy..."

Huang Quan shook his head, both amused and exasperated.

Using spiritual energy, they pieced together the scattered ceramic shards and threw them outside.

As for the wooden door and table, he couldn't be bothered with them; he would just give the order and have someone replace them with new ones.

About half an incense stick's time later.

Liu Xiyao walked in from outside with her head held high and chest puffed out: "Meal ticket... Brother Huang Quan, what's wrong? Did you find it too hot to sleep last night and even dismantle the door yourself? And how did you flip this table? Did you get into a fight with someone? Or did you get so hot from fighting that you dismantled the door?"

Huang Quan: "Have you ever considered that I might have broken the door because I was fighting too fiercely?"

Liu Xiyao suddenly realized, and although she tried her best to restrain herself and only show shock on her face, it was obvious that she was having a hard time suppressing her smile: "It is indeed possible."

Huang Quan: ? ? ?

Isn't this brain of yours pretty good?

Huang Quan simply went along with her, saying, "Yeah, I don't know which shameless guy tore the door down right under my nose."

Liu Xiyao feigned an innocent expression and winked at Huang Quan. "Hey, how old are you? Still so embarrassed? It's just a door, do you think I'd laugh at you? Why make yourself sound so shameless?"

Huang Quan: ? ? ? ???

Huff, huff, huff.

He took three deep breaths, repeatedly telling himself not to argue with a fool.

She'll only bring your IQ down to her level, and eventually defeat you with her vast experience.

"You came over so early in the morning, you're not here to ask me why I took the door down, are you? Get to the point."

"Just admit you broke it, and I'll save myself a problem..."

However, after being reminded by Huang Quan, Liu Xiyao realized that now was not the time to shirk responsibility.

"Hurry, hurry! You promised me yesterday! Let's elope! I've already found out the situation, today is the perfect time to leave, any later and we'll miss our chance."

Liu Xiyao's voice was not quiet, or rather, she did not deliberately suppress it.

So much so that Gu Qici, who was just a wall away, heard the entire sentence clearly.

For some reason, the potted plants were unusually vibrant green today.

"What? Elope? You say yes?"

What important thing did she miss in her daze?

Huang Quan shared the same question.

"When did I agree to that yesterday?"

Liu Xiyao looked incredulous, putting on an act of being dumped by a scumbag: "Didn't you promise to come with me to find Sister Wanyu?"

"I've already inquired with the Lord of the Manor! That secret realm opens once every fifteen months, and it will reopen in two days!"

She held a miniature jade sword in her hand.

Jade always emits a gentle, faint glow, yet its brilliance is undeniable.

The so-called secret realm.

The continents where humans currently live are vast.

The laws of Heaven, the Five Elements, and the Two Different Elements are all present.

However, hidden beneath this world, countless other dimensions, large and small, still coexist.

These spaces are mostly due to incomplete rules or special reasons, and they have a special repulsive force with the greater world, making them unable to merge together, so they are called secret realms.

Generally speaking, once a cultivator reaches the Heavenly Monarch realm, with their own great power combined with some divine objects, they can completely open up a brand new secret realm on their own.

Of course, there are also many naturally formed hidden gems.

As an independent entity, the secret realm is extremely suitable for use in sect assessments, disciple competitions, or for cultivating spiritual plants and beasts.

Some secret realms were completely looted when the sect encountered a powerful enemy.

However, some secret realms were hidden by certain formations or restrictive spells, with the intention of not letting enemies benefit from them.

However, as time passed, the formations and restrictions used to hide these secret realms gradually became ineffective, and these secret realms reappeared in front of everyone.

"I said I needed two spots, and the lord of the manor quickly agreed..."

"I want another one, I'll go too."

At that moment, a girl was leaning against the door.

Her long, jet-black hair cascaded over her shoulders, and her black and white maid outfit seemed to come alive against her backdrop. Her long, slender legs appeared even longer and more delicate, encased in white stockings.

Gu Qici was clearly quite unwilling, probably because she had to wear such eye-catching clothes in front of everyone.

This unsettling attire made her unconsciously pull down the hem of her white lace skirt, which was already below her knees, as if afraid that Huang Quan would see her "absolute territory."

Her eyes, which should have been as clear and bright as autumn water, were now filled with suspicion and scrutiny.

Huang Quan looked at A Qi, who was dressed as a maid, and his eyes lit up. He thought, "If it had been like this last night, he wouldn't have had to worry about whether he was worse than a beast."

"Your puppet clone is only at the Foundation Establishment stage, what are you doing getting involved? If you really run into trouble, I might not be able to protect you."

"I don't need protection..." She swallowed the words back, her face full of embarrassment, stammering like a thief caught red-handed by the wrist.

"Just protect me as much as you can. I'm not as fragile as you think. Besides, taking me with you is the best option if you're going to the Dragon Bone Sword Tomb."

"How did you know I was going to the Dragon Bone Sword Tomb?!"

Gu Qici's expression remained unchanged; her intelligence network was quite extensive: "Finding out which secret realm Jiang Wanyu disappeared in isn't too difficult."

What exactly does Chapter Seventy-Two mean?

Two days later, a desolate area.

Legend has it that the human sword cultivator sect fought a life-or-death battle against the dragon race ruler here.

This area was reduced to ruins, and to this day, nothing grows there.

Deep underground, a massive canyon, thousands of meters long and two hundred meters wide, has been ripped open, running straight down to an unfathomable depth, like the earth's mouth, capable of swallowing everything in the world.

Liu Xiyao turned and gestured to Huang Quan.

"The place Sister Yu went to back then should be this place..."

When they arrived, countless cultivators had already gathered there.

Each time the Dragon Bone Sword Tomb opens, it can accommodate 180 cultivators.

There are thirteen sects in the vicinity that know about this secret place and have the influence to share in its benefits.

There is no way to distribute the quotas equally.

In reality, even if it could be distributed equally, it wouldn't be like this.

Although they are all cultivation sects, there are still rankings among them based on strength.

If the top-ranked cultivation sect were to share the same number of spots as the bottom-ranked cultivation sect, would they be willing to accept it?
