The Book Soul Chronicles: Godslayer

Yu Bingwen fell into deep thought. Hao Jujin kept asking questions, but he didn't hear anything until the last sentence, when he finally understood.

"Oh, by the way, Brother Li, I still don't know your name."

"Ah! Oh, I am Li Yunting, from Zhongzhou. I have come here for this secret realm. May I ask why Fellow Daoist Hao is here?"

Yu Bingwen really didn't want to dwell on their family name any longer, so he changed the subject.

When traveling, one must be careful, so I temporarily gave myself a pseudonym and kept the story vague. After all, one lie requires countless lies to cover it up, and even a meticulous person might not be able to cover it up. So I simply kept it vague to avoid trouble.

Mentioning this, Hao Jujin slumped down, and his voice became softer as he explained, "I sneaked out of the house. Yanliu Shengdu has been so lively these past few days, so I came to join in the fun. Who knew I would run into Yu Kuangdao? I used a magic item to conceal my presence and quietly followed him. I never expected to see what just happened."

"Yu Kuangdao?" Yu Bingwen called out the name in confusion. He guessed that it was the cultivator from before, but how did this chubby boy know him?

“That’s right. Yu Kuangdao is Yin Laogui’s apprentice. Just like his master, he is arrogant, bloodthirsty, and a complete madman. Last time, I saw him kill Sheng Zijun with my own eyes. I had a magic treasure with the secret aura of my family, which is why I escaped.

"Although Sheng Zijun often bullies me, Madam Sheng is very kind to me. Seeing how sad she is, I was afraid that telling her would bring her danger, so I decided to follow Yu Kuangdao to see what he was up to. If I happened to see him injured, I could take advantage of his illness to kill him and help Madam Sheng kill the enemy who killed her son."

Yu Bingwen understood the whole story and nodded.

"I am deeply moved by Fellow Daoist Hao's sincere heart, but this secret realm is extremely dangerous. Fellow Daoist Hao's cultivation is not high enough, so I'm afraid he cannot enter the secret realm."

Yu Bingwen offered a tactful suggestion, pointing out that the other person's cultivation level was higher than his own, and if he was injured, it must be because he had encountered an even stronger opponent. In that case, Hao Jujin would probably not be able to kill him, but would instead put himself in danger.

Even if Yu Kuangdao were to escape from the masters by sheer luck and be injured, and Hao Jujin were to happen to encounter him, let alone the fact that such a chance is almost impossible, even if it were possible, given Yu Kuangdao's style of doing things, he would definitely prefer to die rather than live in dishonor. In that case, even if Hao Jujin had many magical treasures, it would probably be a lose-lose situation.

Especially since this guy doesn't seem very bright, he might have been sold out without even realizing it. And given that this secret realm is surrounded by dangers, it's best to let her leave as soon as possible.

"No, I want to go in. I have a way to get in. Brother Li, I'm incredibly lucky. I can find lots of spiritual treasures. Once I'm inside, I'm sure I can find Brother Li, and then I'll take the brothers to collect the spiritual treasures," Hao Jujin said cheerfully.

Looking at him, Yu Bingwen felt a pang of pity and had no choice but to resort to his last trump card.

"Oh! There's only one entrance to the secret realm, and only one person can pass through at a time. Fellow Daoist Hao, are you planning to compete with me for it?"

Yu Bingwen deliberately put on a cold face, even his voice was icy. In fact, even Yu Bingwen didn't know why he was meddling in other people's business. It was just that a voice in his heart told him to protect him, and since meeting him, he had strangely felt no desire to be on guard, and inexplicably believed everything he said.

However, Yu Bingwen attributed all of this to his cultivation of the Dao of All Living Beings, which naturally attracts people with pure hearts! He still trusted his intuition.

Seeing Yu Bingwen's sudden change in attitude, Hao Jujin suddenly became anxious. As the young master of the Hao family, born into a prominent family, although his family members were all very nice, he knew some things that others did not, and had met many people. How could he trust a stranger without any precautions?

But when he first saw Yu Bingwen, he felt a sense of familiarity and believed that he would not hurt him. Seeing his change, he felt inexplicably nervous and afraid, and he quickly explained.

"No! That's not what I meant. I didn't mean to compete with you for the entrance to this secret realm. If you don't believe me, you can go in first. Maybe another entrance will open here soon."

Yu Bingwen did not expect him to be so persistent, even his excuse was so clumsy.

Hao Jujin explained for a long time, but when he looked at Yu Bingwen, he saw that Yu Bingwen's face was full of disbelief. He was almost anxious. He knew that this was hard to believe. Now he could only wait for the new entrance to the secret realm to form to prove that what he said was true and that he was not just bluffing Yu Bingwen.

He quickly looked around and suddenly discovered that an entrance to a secret realm was forming. He shouted out.

"Look! Look! I wasn't lying to you! A new entrance to the secret realm has formed."

Yu Bingwen turned his head to look and saw that a new entrance to the secret realm was forming next to the one he had just seen. He felt as if he had cracked open. The chubby boy hadn't lied to him after all; a new entrance had formed right after he finished speaking. What kind of luck was this? Others might search for ages and still not find one, but he had a new one formed right after he finished speaking.

"Now you believe me, right! Let me tell you, it might have been a good thing you didn't go through the entrance to the secret realm that Yu Kuangdao went into! Who knows if that entrance was open to powerful spirit beasts or even demon beasts? Maybe those two would have already perished together! It saved us the trouble of getting revenge!"

Hao Jujin was afraid that the other party would keep pressing the issue, so he quickly changed the subject, but the way he did so was a bit difficult.

At this moment, Yu Kuangdao said, "I really thank you! You cursed me for the sake of a complete stranger."

Yu Bingwen was speechless upon hearing these outrageous words. He was too lazy to care anymore and decided to let him be. "Brother, you're really lucky. Perhaps you really have a special opportunity. I shouldn't get involved in other people's karma."

Yu Bingwen didn't say anything, turned around and walked towards the entrance of the secret realm, no longer trying to stop him.

Seeing that the other person was no longer speaking, Hao Juji knew that the other person would not stop him anymore, so he called out to the other person's back.

"Brother Li, I'm serious. Who knows, we might just see Yu Kuangdao perish together with whatever's inside as soon as we enter the secret realm!"

Yu Bingwen stumbled, genuinely shocked by his words. He didn't want to listen to this guy spouting nonsense any longer, so he flew directly towards the entrance of the secret realm.

Seeing that the other person had gone in, Hao Jujin also got up and flew towards another entrance to the secret realm.

Bian Fei thought to himself, "Brother Li, we'll be able to meet in the secret realm soon. Wait for me."

Yu Bingwen truly didn't expect that Hao Jujin's "immediately" really meant "immediately".
