So what if I'm useless? I'll become a saint!

This also saves them the trouble of dealing with her.

Ling Jiuze glanced at Ling Jiuxi and felt relieved.

With Ling Jiuxi around, it would not be difficult for him to deal with Ling Jiuan.

Ling Jiuan looked at Ling Jiuxi's arrogant and domineering appearance and Ling Jiuze's hypocritical face, and sneered in his heart.

A fool who doesn't even know he's being used as a knife!

She raised her head and looked directly into Ling Jiuze's eyes, with a hint of provocation in her tone.

"Really? Second brother, do you think so too?"

She wanted to see how this hypocrite, who had always regarded himself as gentle, righteous and moral, would justify himself at this moment.

Ling Jiuze was speechless for a moment, and the expression on his face changed like a color palette.

This is really difficult for Ling Jiuan!

If he had known earlier, he should have beaten her to death!

He smiled awkwardly.

"Jiuan, as a brother, I naturally want to protect you."

He paused, secretly glanced at Ling Jiuxi who was looking aggressive next to him, then looked at the eyes around him who were watching the show, and weighed the pros and cons in his mind.

"But... this secret realm is full of dangers, and there are so many of us that we really can't take care of you..."

Ling Jiuan looked at his hypocritical face and felt sick.

She smiled coldly and interrupted Ling Jiuze's nonsense.

"It's just that you're also afraid of being dragged down."

Her words were full of sarcasm and disdain.

"But I don't want to get entangled with you, so let's just say goodbye."

With that said, she turned and left.

Her back appears particularly determined and lonely, yet also reveals a sense of unyielding pride.

Those who were enjoying the show looked at each other, and for a moment no one dared to step forward to stop it.

After all, no one would be willing to walk side by side with someone without spiritual power.

Chen Yan folded his arms, stood aside and watched the farce of the Ling brothers and sisters coldly, and couldn't help but curl up a sarcastic smile at the corner of his mouth.

"I've long heard rumors about how benevolent and caring the second son of the Ling family is, but after seeing him today, I feel that he is just so-so."

Hypocrisy and selfishness are fully displayed in this second young master.

But think about it, if they were truly brothers, why would they let Ling Jiuan, a person without spiritual roots, defend the ring?

Looking at Ling Jiuan's resolute back as he left, Chen Yan actually felt a hint of admiration in his heart.

Although this girl has no spiritual roots, she is much more interesting than those so-called geniuses!

He had an idea and decided to follow and see.

"Ling Jiuan, don't go!"

Chen Yan chased after him with big strides, his usual smirk on his face.

"I'll team up with you! Don't worry, I'll protect you. You will definitely be able to get out of this secret place alive."

When Ling Jiuan heard Chen Yan's words, he paused slightly, but did not turn back.

She glanced at Chen Yan indifferently, with a hint of vigilance and distrust in her eyes.

"No need."

Her voice was cold and firm.

"You are not alone either. You have Chen family disciples with you. There is no need for you to come with me."

There is no kindness without reason in this world!

Even Lei Tingyi was nice to her because of the so-called life-saving grace.

Ling Jiuan really didn't have any trust in Chen Yan.

After all, the two of them fought hard in the ring match. Although she won the match in the end, there was no guarantee that Chen Yan would not hate her for it.

In this world of cultivation where the strong prey on the weak, she must always be vigilant.

However, Chen Yan seemed to not care about her rejection. He shrugged his shoulders with that unruly smile still on his face.

"Oh, what's the big deal."

He put on a bold and generous air.

"We are all friends! More companions mean more care."

He just didn't understand why this girl was so defensive.

As he said this, he turned to look at the Chen family disciples following behind him. Each of those disciples had an embarrassed look on their faces, and it was obvious that they were surprised and worried about Chen Yan's sudden decision.

He waved his hand and spoke lightly.

"I'm the one who brought them in. If they get into danger, I'll protect them myself." Chen Yan waved at them, looking like he was taking on the responsibility. "Do you have any objections?"

The Chen family disciples looked at each other and finally lowered their heads. No one dared to directly oppose Chen Yan's decision.

But someone still reminded quietly.

Young Master, think twice! "

After all, in this secret realm, one more person means one more danger, and they have to consider their own safety.

But Chen Yan acted as if he didn't hear it and walked straight to Ling Jiuan.

"Oh, let's go!"

He believed that someone like Ling Jiuan would definitely not be a burden!

He also wanted to prove his judgment of people - this girl was definitely not simple!

He is not like those mediocre and blind people in the Ling family!

Ling Jiuxi looked at Chen Yan standing on Ling Jiuan's side without hesitation, and a surge of anger surged in his heart.

She would never tolerate Ling Jiuan having any chance to turn things around, let alone let her survive safely in the secret realm.

Ling Jiuan must die in the secret realm!

So, she came up with a plan and planned to use the Chen family disciples to restrain Ling Jiuan.

She walked towards the Chen family with a strange smile on her face.

"Fellow Taoists!"

Ling Jiuxi spoke with a righteous look.

"Excuse me for being so nosy, but my fifth sister is a naturally unlucky person. I'm afraid there will be no good in getting close to her."

Upon hearing this, everyone in the Chen family looked at each other with puzzled expressions on their faces.

One of them couldn't help but ask.

"Miss Ling San, what do you mean?"

Ling Jiuxi curled his lips, and a hint of cunning flashed in his eyes.

She looked around and saw that everyone was looking at her intently, then she spoke slowly.

"This matter is a taboo in our family, but in the secret realm, for the sake of everyone's safety, I think there is nothing that cannot be said."

She paused deliberately to whet everyone's appetite.

"You know, her mother was killed by her!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone was in an uproar!

Although they had heard some rumors about Ling Jiuan, this was the first time they had learned such specific inside information.

Ling Jiuan is the legitimate daughter after all. Even though she has no spiritual roots, she should not be thrown out to fend for herself.

Now it seems that the Ling family was very kind not to strangle such an ominous person to death!

Ling Jiuxi looked at the astonished expressions of the crowd and felt secretly proud.

She believed that as long as the Chen family disciples were wary of and repulsed by Ling Jiuan, her life in the secret realm would not be easy.

However, what she did not expect was that Chen Yan scoffed at this.

"Miss Ling San."

Chen Yan spoke coldly.

"Your nonsense can only fool a three-year-old child. Although I, Chen Yan, am not a gentleman, I will never be prejudiced against my friends because of such a ridiculous rumor."

Ling Jiuan looked at Chen Yan thoughtfully.
