The female supporting role is really here to mess things up

Just as everyone was hesitating, a secret voice suddenly reached Lu Qingxi's ears. In fact, Yun Li's consciousness had been secretly observing them. Seeing Lu Qingxi in trouble, he immediately reminded him: "You can try to use the broken thoughts to hit one of the ice pillars, so that you can tear a space crack. But remember, don't destroy the other ice pillars. Breaking only one will not make the formation invalid."

Lu Qingxi was startled by the voice, but then she realized that the other party had no ill intentions. She quickly told everyone what Yun Li said. Everyone knew about Lu Qingxi's previous intelligence, so they naturally would not stop her decision.

So, Lu Qingxi held the Broken Thought, took a deep breath, and concentrated all his strength to hit one of the icicles. With a loud bang, the icicle cracked under the impact of the Broken Thought, and then quickly expanded into a space crack. The crack revealed a strong light and energy fluctuations, as if leading to another mysterious space.

Seeing this, everyone was excited. They seized the opportunity, quickly passed through the space crack, and successfully escaped from this dangerous secret place.

They looked back and saw that the four icicles had suddenly turned back to five! Everything was as if they had never entered.

After coming out, Mu Jingxuan expressed her gratitude to Lu Qingxi. After all, it was Lu Qingxi who helped everyone pass the secret realm many times. Song Hanyi and Gu Yuan looked at Lu Qingxi with complicated eyes. The Lu Qingxi in front of them seemed to be very different from what they had seen before. Not only had he become much smarter, but the clean and cool aura emanating from his body also made them feel comfortable inexplicably.

When Song Hanyi and Gu Yuan asked Mu Yao whether they could go back to Jianxin Sect together, Mu Yao fell into deep thought. She knew that although they failed to bring back the treasures mentioned by the mysterious man from Bai Ze Secret Realm, and the various dangers in the secret realm were not something they could easily deal with. However, if she did not go back with them, the mysterious man might get angry and reveal her true identity to Song Hanyi, and then she would not be able to win Song Hanyi's heart. After weighing the pros and cons, Mu Yao decided to go back with them.

The group quickly set off and embarked on the journey back to Jianxin Sect. After returning to Jianxin Sect, the quiet room arranged for "Li Wanqing" was still preserved, and no one dared to move. This was the residence of the person that the two Lingxiao disciples admired, so after Mu Yao returned as "Li Wanqing", he still lived there.

Lu Qingxi looked at Mu Yao turning into "Li Wanqing". Although she was a little uncomfortable, her and Xuan Yi's mental energy was greatly consumed in the secret realm, so they could only put this fake "Li Wanqing" aside for the time being.

In Mu Jingxuan's yard, Yan Xiao was quite surprised to see Mu Jingxuan return safely. He originally thought that if Mu Yao led them into the secret realm where Bai Ze was imprisoned, they would not be able to escape unscathed with just six cultivators below the Jindan stage. But the current situation was completely different from what he thought! How did they manage to come out safely?

That night, Yan Xiao showed up at Mu Yao's residence. When Mu Yao saw him, his heart skipped a beat, and he immediately asked with some caution: "Why did you ask me to take them to that dangerous secret place?" Yan Xiao's eyes flickered, and he immediately took out the words he had prepared: "Your Junior Brother Song has the Holy Spirit Pearl on him, so naturally no one can hurt him. The reason why I asked you to take him to that secret place is that I hope you can take out what I want. However, it seems that you didn't take out anything. There are so many natural treasures there, why didn't you take any of them?"

Mu Yao was speechless and stood there for a moment. Yan Xiao looked at her reaction with a flash of contempt in his eyes. Then, he asked Mu Yao about their experience in the secret realm. Mu Yao told him everything she had seen and heard, without hiding anything.

After listening to Mu Yao's description, Yan Xiao became somewhat interested in Lu Qingxi. He felt that this female cultivator seemed to be exceptionally smart and worthy of his further attention. So, he secretly ran to Lu Qingxi's yard. However, due to his suppressed cultivation, he could not break through the defensive formation of the yard at all, so he had to wander around the door and then go back.

In the main courtyard of the inner peak, ever since Ling Xiao accidentally fell into the Misleading Spring, his mind has been lost in the illusion like a fallen leaf. Deep in his heart, he has both the sweet dream of spending time with Li Wanqing in the illusion, and the indifference and alienation of the woman in reality. This huge gap makes him exhausted.

In just half a month, Ling Xiao's cultivation level declined rapidly like flowing water, and the drop of two realms was shocking. His eyes lost their former sharpness and determination, replaced by a complex emotion of confusion and pain.

As Ling Xiao's best friend, Yun Li was extremely anxious as he watched his friend sink step by step. He knew that the root of all this was the woman named "Li Wanqing". Therefore, he chose to conceal the news of Li Wanqing's disappearance, fearing that this news would make Ling Xiao's mood even more devastated.

However, fate always seems to give people a chance to turn things around. When Ling Xiao's disciples brought back the long-missing Li Wanqing, Yun Li saw the light of hope. He thought that perhaps only Li Wanqing's advice could awaken Ling Xiao's reason and let him find himself again.

When Yun Li's eyes fell on Mu Yao, who was pretending to be "Li Wanqing", he was filled with inexplicable doubts. He carefully looked at the woman in front of him and saw that although her appearance was beautiful, she did not use any magic to cover it up. This was obviously inconsistent with the real "Li Wanqing". Yun Li thought to himself that there must be something fishy about the identity of this woman.

However, he knew that he couldn't alert the enemy at this moment. So, he suppressed his doubts, didn't show any abnormality, and left the yard after telling Ling Xiao that he was awake.

But Yun Li did not intend to give up on exploring the woman's identity. From that day on, Yun Li began to hide his breath and figure, silently observing Mu Yao's actions in the dark.

Late at night on the third day, Yun Li unexpectedly discovered that Mu Jingxuan's spiritual animal, the little black dog, had quietly come to Mu Yao's residence. He immediately slipped inside and hid in the dark, quietly listening to the conversation between the two.

The little black dog on the ground spoke to "Li Wanqing": "Mu Jingxuan has become suspicious of your identity these days and often mentions your changes. In order to prevent your Junior Brother Song from getting suspicious, I suggest that Miss Mu leave this place as soon as possible."
