"The sect's rules strictly forbid internal fighting. Junior Brother Zhang, please control your anger. It's not conducive to your cultivation if you keep acting like this all day long."

Gu Wangchen glanced at Zhang Wulin's fist which had already accumulated power, and lightly swung out a palm to suppress the lightning on his fist.

Thunder spiritual roots are more aggressive than other spiritual roots and can more easily withstand thunder tribulations, but under absolute realm suppression, they will still be powerless to resist.

Zhang Wulin was filled with rage, but he couldn't beat Gu Wangchen. He felt that he had lost face, and his face flushed red as he stared at Gu Wangchen and Chen Wei.

Leng Zhuxin could feel that Zhang Wulin had murderous intentions towards Gu Wangchen and Chen Wei, especially towards Chen Wei, with extremely strong murderous intentions.

She suddenly had a vague guess in her mind that Chen Wei died at the hands of Zhang Wulin.

However, it is not easy for a person in the middle stage of foundation building to kill a person in the early stage of foundation building. Chen Wei is a direct disciple and must have means to protect her life. How could she be killed by Zhang Wulin?

Leng Zhuxin frowned and thought, and just as he had a bold idea, the square suddenly became noisy.

Looking up, I saw that it was Shangguan Heng who came riding on a sword. He was wearing a wide-sleeved robe and had his hands behind his back, looking very immortal.

As soon as he landed, he said with a cold face: "My apprentice doesn't need to be taught a lesson by a junior. Why don't you come over? Don't you think you haven't lost face enough?"

"Yes, Master."

Zhang Wulin's stiff neck suddenly bent, and he lowered his head and walked to Shangguan Heng.

Chen Wei and Gu Wangchen exchanged a glance and shouted, "Greetings to the Immortal Lord Chang Heng."

Neither of them called Chang Heng "Master Uncle or Uncle", so Leng Zhuxin followed suit and called him that.

What just happened was just passed by so lightly. Gu Wangchen straightened his clothes and stood on the high platform at the front, next to Shangguan Heng.

Shangguan Heng glanced at the audience, and the audience instantly became quiet.

"I am the elder leading this team. Many of you are participating in the Secret Realm Trial for the first time. The Secret Realm is full of dangers. If you are afraid, you can withdraw now."

Shangguan Heng didn't say anything encouraging, but just looked around coldly and asked if anyone was quitting.

After a while, when no one left, he continued, "Since no one has withdrawn, let's prepare to set off. This time, our leader is Zhang Wulin, our fourth disciple. Once you enter the secret realm, you must follow the leader's instructions and not act on your own."

When Shangguan Heng talked about acting without authorization, his eyes were always on Chen Wei and Leng Zhuxin.

Gu Wangchen also noticed it, and his heart sank. After getting on the spirit boat, he pulled Chen Wei and Leng Zhuxin to a corner.

"You two must be careful after entering the secret realm. Do not stay away from people unless absolutely necessary."

Gu Wangchen spoke in a serious tone, and his hands kept moving. He took out a life-saving magic weapon for each of them.

"Brother Gu, do you think..."

Chen Wei's face was solemn as she glanced at Zhang Wulin, who was standing at the front of the spirit boat surrounded by his disciples. Although she only said half of her words, Gu Wangchen and Leng Zhuxin understood.

"Yes, he might attack you."

Gu Wangchen said what Chen Wei had not said.

Chen Wei is not a naive little girl. She has grown a lot since her brother disappeared. Naturally, she would not believe that Zhang Wulin would still abide by the sect rules in the secret realm.

The best way is undoubtedly to act together with other disciples in the sect or disciples from other sects. Unless Zhang Wulin is absolutely sure of killing her to silence her, he will definitely not take action against her.

She was a direct disciple and was killed by Zhang Wulin in the secret realm. Even if she was the disciple of the Immortal Venerable Chang Heng, her roots and cultivation would be destroyed and she would be expelled from the sect.

But Chen Wei couldn't help feeling uncomfortable at the thought of being with that beast Zhang Wulin.

After a moment of silence, he said, "I should have known better than to get so close to Junior Sister Leng. It's no use getting Junior Sister Leng targeted. I'll be careful after we enter the secret realm, but I'm afraid Junior Sister Leng and I will be targeted."

Chen Wei smiled bitterly and looked at Leng Zhuxin with an apologetic look on her face.

"What's the point of saying that it's a problem? Uncle Zhong has always been kind to the disciples of our sect's main peak, so it's only natural for us to be on good terms with you.

Besides, even if I don’t get close to you, my junior sister will be targeted if she enters the secret realm.

Wasn't it because he promoted your brother faster than him that he was harmed by him? "

What Gu Wangchen said was the truth. Zhang Wulin himself had a poor understanding and was narrow-minded. He couldn't stand disciples who had higher understanding than him.

Chen Wei's brother Chen Ke suffered misfortune because of his good comprehension. He joined the sect in the same year as Zhang Wulin but was promoted faster than Zhang Wulin.

Four years ago, he disappeared when he and Zhang Wulin entered a secret realm for training.

Because Chen Ke was only an inner sect disciple of Danfeng with dual spiritual roots of wood and fire, and he did not have a life lamp, his life or death was unknown.

At that time, Zhang Wulin had just returned from the Foundation Establishment stage, and he had quite a few injuries on his body.

When Chen Wei went to ask him, he only said that the two of them encountered a demon cultivator and fled separately, and he didn't know where Chen Ke escaped to.

But Chen Wei and Gu Wangchen both found something wrong. The injuries on Zhang Wulin's body did not look like those caused by a demon cultivator, but more like being hit by a heavy object, especially the wound that looked like the sole of an alchemy furnace.

The two therefore suspected that Chen Ke was killed by Zhang Wulin after a conflict between them.

However, no one believed that Zhang Wulin, a disciple at the ninth level of Qi training, could kill Chen Ke, who was at the foundation-building stage. In addition, he had his master Shangguan Heng to protect him, so the matter was later left unresolved.

Afterwards, Gu Wangchen guessed that Chen Ke was murdered because he was promoted too quickly and overshadowed Zhang Wulin. Chen Wei also thought so, but due to the lack of evidence, the two of them could not do anything to Zhang Wulin.

Gu Wangchen and Chen Ke had a pretty good relationship. He had previously thought of looking for evidence in the Hengyuan Realm, where Chen Ke last went. However, the Hengyuan Realm only opens once every ten years, and only disciples with a cultivation level below the Nascent Soul stage can enter. Gu Wangchen had already reached the Great Perfection of the Golden Core at that time and was about to be promoted.

His relationship with Chen Ke as a fellow apprentice was not good enough to require him to suppress his cultivation for ten years, so he had to give up and only treated Chen Wei a little better than before.

Although Leng Zhuxin was only at the ninth level of Qi training in his eyes, Leng Zhuxin had only been in the sect for two months.

Many disciples in the sect were jealous of her talent. Even Gu Wangchen himself would sigh from time to time that Leng Zhuxin was a peerless genius that was hard to come by in a thousand years in the Xuanling Continent.

No one can guarantee that Zhang Wulin will not attack Leng Zhuxin out of jealousy, especially when they set out today, Gu Wangchen vaguely sensed that there was something wrong with the way Shangguan Heng and Zhang Wulin, the master and disciple, looked at Leng Zhuxin.

Especially Shangguan Heng, his eyes stayed on Leng Zhuxin for more than ten seconds.

Gu Wangchen didn't dare to gamble his junior sister's life on the fact that the two men had no intention of killing him, so he could only ask them to be more cautious.

After thinking for a while, he took out something like a glass ball and gave it to Leng Zhuxin: "There is my full-strength attack in this. If Zhang Wulin really attacks you, you can use this to hit him, and then use the one given to you by Uncle Wu Xiang and Master.

Even if I can't kill him, I can burn him so hard that he's unrecognizable. Then you can use the weapon your master gave you to kill him so there won't be any trouble later."

Leng Zhuxin could feel that Gu Wangchen really treated her as his junior sister and was always sincere to her without a trace of falsehood.

Even though he knew that Leng Zhuxin using the spirit ball to kill Zhang Wulin might bring trouble to himself, he still gave the spirit ball to Leng Zhuxin without hesitation.

The fiery red spiritual power ball was handed to Leng Zhuxin. Due to the high temperature, Leng Zhuxin could hardly hold it, but the heat also made her feel a little warm in her heart.

At this moment, Leng Zhuxin sincerely accepted Gu Wangchen as his senior brother. Holding the fiery red spiritual power ball, he looked up and smiled: "Don't worry, senior brother, if he really attacks me and Senior Sister Chen, the two of us may not be able to kill him."
