How could someone as well-behaved as Sister Yue possibly be a playboy?

Lai Tiancheng narrowed his eyes in a sinister way, like a sharp knife.

The girl trembled again and lowered her eyelashes.

On one side were the three arrogant Rakshasa Palace members, and on the other side was a weak Foundation Establishment female cultivator.

The cultivators present all gave Ye Yueyue a sympathetic look; everyone knew of the Rakshasa Palace's formidable reputation.

There are countless examples of such unreasonable things.

Although it was a common sight, people couldn't help but sigh.

Fortunately, this female cultivator encountered the Free and Unfettered Sect, otherwise today might have been...

"Get lost," Xu Bai said calmly.

Lai Tiancheng's face was gloomy. After a long while, he sneered and his cold eyes swept over her. "There's plenty of time in the future."

After saying that, he turned and left.

Mu Er immediately followed, while Mu Yi glanced at the female cultivator again, a sinister glint in his eyes.

How could I not have recognized him just now? He's disappointed the Dharma Protector...

That gaze was as sticky and gloomy as a cold, damp snake, sending chills down your spine.

However, Ye Yueyue wasn't afraid. It was just that she was being targeted again. She wasn't even afraid of Lai Tiancheng, so why would a small fry be afraid of the market?

The girl looked away, not daring to look again, and breathed a sigh of relief when the person left.

"Senior brother, thank you..."

Before he could finish speaking, Xu Bai looked up and saw it.

The girl released his arm as if she had been electrocuted, her fair cheeks instantly flushed, and her gaze wandered.

"I'm sorry..." she said, her face flushed, her voice stammering and barely audible.

The trembling tone at the end of the note was like a feather, gently brushing against his heart.

Xu Bai shifted his gaze, his expression remaining unchanged.

"nothing."

"...Senior brother...Phew, I'm exhausted, I almost missed it..."

Rapid breathing filled the air; the newcomer was none other than Li Xingye.

He was panting heavily and looked extremely tired. He walked over to Xu Bai's side, and his tone became even more excited when he saw the girl in red.

"The big boss is here too!"

Li Xingye then slapped his forehead, "Look at my memory! The secret realm that the big boss discovered is right here."

"So you...?"

Seeing Ye Yueyue's knowing expression, he smiled and said, "Yes, I saw it on the spirit scroll. Thanks to the big boss, we were able to get here in time."

Ruoyun also came in, her breathing equally unsteady, and her face somewhat pale: "Greetings, Senior Brother."

Xu Bai nodded slightly.

"I was lucky; I only realized it after I posted it."

"Thank you anyway."

Li Xingye shook his head, picked up the spirit slip, and transferred 2 spirit stones to Ye Yueyue.

hiss……

Where did this rich kid come from?

Ye Yueyue almost lost her composure, but remembering that the fish was still there, she tried her best to control her expression and maintain a calm demeanor.

"That means you're destined to meet this opportunity. You don't need the spirit stones. We've met, so let's be friends." She shook her head and returned the spirit stones.

"The Rakshasa Palace is also located in this secret realm. This trip may not be good..."

The girl frowned slightly, looking very worried.

It wasn't that Ye Yueyue was foolish or that she didn't want spirit stones to maintain her persona; rather, the moment she saw Xu Bai, she had already decided to tie herself to the Xiaoyao Sect.

Therefore, there's no need to draw a line for those 20,000 spirit stones. Although it's a considerable amount, you need to be alive to spend those spirit stones.

Without teammates, she's not a pushover in this secret realm, easily slaughtered.

The peak of Foundation Establishment and the Golden Core stage is a watershed. Even if she could fight someone of a higher level, it wouldn't be easy, not to mention the three dogs from the Rakshasa Palace who are watching her like hawks.

Not to mention the Rakshasa Palace, the other Golden Core cultivators are no pushovers either.

When faced with opportunities, everyone becomes a formidable foe when interests clash.

"...It's alright, with my senior brother here, I'm at ease."

Li Xingye paused for a moment, then looked indifferent.

Their senior brothers from the Free and Unfettered Sect have no rivals below the Golden Core stage, so what are they afraid of?

You're right, but there's only one Xu Bai.

Ye Yueyue didn't have his big heart. Xu Baiqiang was strong, but things were unpredictable. If he was restrained, wouldn't the three of them still be in trouble?

To place all your hopes on others is a foolish thing to do.

"Can I go with you?"

Upon hearing this, the girl looked at Xu Bai with admiration, then seemed to think of something, looked away, and whispered.

There was a barely perceptible expectation in his tone.

Xu Bai gave a faint "hmm" and turned to enter the main hall.

"Come on, come on, we only got in because of the big boss, it's no big deal for us to come together." Li Xingye followed.

Ruoyun glanced at the blindly confident Li Xingye and felt uneasy. She then looked at the light-footed girl beside her.

She thought for a moment, then walked to the edge, keeping a distance from Ye Yueyue.

Ruoyun had a good memory; she clearly remembered that this junior sister of the Xuanling Sect had been targeted by the Rakshasa Palace.

They were standing on white jade steps, with the main hall above them.

Dozens of pillars support this luxurious palace, which is carved from white jade, smooth and white, like a magnificent gemstone, and topped with a roof covered with glazed tiles.

It resembles a palace inhabited by immortals.

The whole thing is dreamlike and enchanting, making it a place one longs to visit.

The group climbed the long steps and pushed open the white jade gate.

Stepping into the palace, luxurious halls come into view.

In the center of the main hall hangs a mysterious scroll painting. The scroll depicts snow-capped mountains and a cultivator holding a sword, dancing in the snow.

The moment she saw it, Ye Yueyue felt as if she had entered another world.

It was as if she were in a snowy field, and the monk in the portrait was dancing with a sword in front of her, his movements swift and powerful.

Before long, the cultivator waved his hand, and his longsword was placed an inch in front of her.

Despite having no spiritual power, that sword strike seemed to carry endless pressure, crushing her!

Ye Yueyue's pupils contracted as she tried to dodge, but she lost control of her body. Sweat dripped from her forehead as she was struck by the sword intent and fell backward uncontrollably.

The next second, they were back in the main hall.

She clutched her chest; her heart was pounding so hard it felt like it was about to burst out of her chest.

Even the white moonlight couldn't make her feel this strongly.

Ye Yueyue looked around and found that the cultivators who had arrived before them were also attracted by the portrait, standing blankly in front of the scroll with empty eyes.

She looked at the painting again, but this time nothing happened.

"Hmm." A panting sound came from behind.

Ye Yueyue looked up and saw Xu Bai sway slightly, a moment of confusion on his cold face.

"Senior brother... are you alright?" Seeing the worry in the girl's eyes, he shook his head.

However, he quickly regained his composure, his gaze falling on the painting, his expression inscrutable.

The people around gradually regained consciousness.

"Do not kill me!"

"Phew...that scared me to death, thank goodness it was just fake!"

Every cultivator present was pale-faced and still shaken.

One of them looked at the portrait with a terrified expression, patting his chest: "What is this? Such a strange painting, I thought I was going to be stabbed to death."
