The so-called secrecy was not about lying to their respective mentors and elders, which was unrealistic.

Chu Liang simply hoped that those who knew about this matter would be limited to a small part of the high-level members of the three immortal sects, without spreading it further.

The significance of the Azure Dragon Secret Realm was immense. Once the news got out, it would inevitably make headlines in the Seven Star Mansion, and the whole world would know.

The saying goes, “An innocent man is not guilty, but he who possesses the jade is.”

With Chu Liang’s current cultivation level, if the news of him obtaining the Azure Dragon Orb got out, countless people from both the righteous and evil paths would start to covet it, hoping to make him spit out the orb.

At that time, it would be hard to guarantee that no one would bully him like he bullied the Golden Butterfly.

The phrase “what goes around comes around” might just apply to him.

That’s why he said so.

Luo Yao nodded and agreed directly, “Okay.”

Perhaps due to her background, she was more accustomed to darkness. In her view, if Chu Liang was worried about the secret being leaked, he could have killed them to silence them while they were healing!

Just like what Liu Mojie and Master Mu did, this might be the safest choice.

She was lost in thought for a moment.

Chu Liang responded, “Miss Luo, I’ve never been worried.”

Pǔ Shàn frowned, “Huh?”

Feeling a hint of doubt, he immediately nodded without hesitation, “Don’t worry, Hero Chu. Since I’ve accepted the benefits, I will naturally keep my mouth shut.”

Chu Liang also nodded with a smile.

He thought to himself, you’d better.

During their short undercover life, they had formed a deep bond of friendship. Chu Liang chose to trust their promises.

Just as this negotiation was completed, a huge tearing sound suddenly came from the sky!

As if the sky was being torn apart!

The Dragon Orb inside Chu Liang flickered, as if indicating that an enemy had intruded! The sensitive dragon descendants in the secret realm let out terrified dragon roars!

Boom——

Then a streak of fire fell from the sky, directly hitting a nearby mountain, smashing a small peak in front of the three of them, and disappearing from the secret realm.

Rocks fell like rain.

The fire gradually receded, turning into a pair of flaming wings, spreading behind a tall woman.

The woman, dressed in flames, furrowed her brows and shouted, “Where is my disciple?”

“Master, I’m here.” Chu Liang quickly stood up trembling, “You almost crushed me to death…”

“Hmm?” Di Nvfeng looked forward and saw that it was indeed Chu Liang, intact. She then slowly retracted the flames around her and sighed in relief, “I thought you were in a life-or-death crisis.”

“There was indeed a crisis just now, but thanks to the help of my two friends, we defeated the people from the demonic sect.” Chu Liang said.

Di Nvfeng turned to look at Luo Yao and the others, and smiled, “We’ve met before, right? You’re all good kids.”

Luo Yao and Pǔ Shàn also quickly stood up and respectfully saluted Di Nvfeng, their eyes filled with awe and fear.

When a person nearly kills you just by landing, it’s hard not to feel awe towards her.

Just as Di Nvfeng tore through the sky and descended into the secret realm, another streak of light entered and quickly landed, transforming into a young monk dressed in a pure white robe.

He looked about the same age as Pǔ Shàn, but the vicissitudes and compassion in his eyes proved that he was not that simple.

“Master.” Upon seeing this monk, Pǔ Shàn immediately walked over.

This monk turned out to be Pǔ Shàn’s master, a famous monk from Yun Que Temple, one of the Nine Heavens, Master Shen You.

After landing, he smiled and greeted everyone present.

“I’m not criticizing your Yun Que Temple, but when it comes to saving lives, you sent someone who can’t speak. Do you really care about your disciples?” Di Nvfeng frowned. “If we could have cooperated just now, we would have broken into this secret realm long ago.”

She was always impatient, and inevitably got angry when dealing with the leisurely Master Shen You. Even for her, it took a lot of effort to open this secret realm alone.

“Hehe.” Pǔ Shàn scratched his head and laughed, “My master has been practicing the silent meditation for thirty years.”

Watching their reunion, Luo Yao looked up at the crack in the sky again, and saw an old figure peeking out from the crack, looking somewhat sneaky.

It was an elder from the Three Extremes Valley.

The elder waved at Luo Yao and immediately disappeared, not daring to enter the secret realm.

Luo Yao glanced at Di Nvfeng and probably guessed why the elder from the valley was so wary.

Di Nvfeng was always harsh on old men.

Last time, she fought against three and beat several elders from the Three Extremes Valley to tears. Now seeing her again, they were like mice seeing a cat.

“Master, let’s go out too.” Pǔ Shàn said.

Master Shen You nodded slightly, his eyes full of deep meaning as he looked at Chu Liang. It seemed that with just one glance, he already knew what had happened here.

After the first two pairs of master and disciple left, the pair from Shu Mountain didn’t rush to leave.

Chu Liang also needed a private space to tell his master about what had happened here in detail.

After roughly recounting his adventurous journey, Di Nvfeng was greatly shocked when she heard that he had obtained the Azure Dragon Orb.

“You not only killed those two demonic sect experts, but also became the master of this secret realm?” She exclaimed in surprise, paused for a moment, and then said, “You truly are worthy of being my disciple.”

“To be precise, not yet.” Chu Liang chuckled, “I have to wait until my cultivation is sufficient to fully control this secret realm.”

“But it’s still yours, just temporarily residing here.” Di Nvfeng laughed heartily, patting Chu Liang’s shoulder, “This secret realm is so valuable, it seems that your master can rely on you for retirement in the future.”

Chu Liang laughed along, thinking to himself that if it weren’t for the huge hole you blasted just now, this secret realm would be even more valuable.

Thanks to the Zen Master Shenyou for solving this problem.

After the master and disciple left, they returned to the valley under the dragon nest.

The vortex on the mountain wall had already disappeared. Originally, the Canglong Secret Realm would no longer have any other entrances or exits, only Chu Liang had the right to enter and exit. Just now, Di Nvfeng used brute force to blast open the barrier of the secret realm between reality and illusion.

Zen Master Shenyou gently waved his hands, and a white light slowly filled the gap in the secret realm.

Destroying things was Di Nvfeng’s specialty, but for construction, they had to rely on the great powers of Buddhism.

The three pairs of masters and disciples stood in the valley, maintaining a subtle distance, just about to say goodbye, when suddenly they heard the sound of rolling thunderclouds in the sky.

There was a faint demonic aura surging into the sky.

Everyone temporarily hid, and saw a dark cloud descending from the sky, with hundreds of demonic cultivators standing on top of the cloud. The one leading them was the pale-faced General Heiyu.

Earlier, Master Mu and Liu Mojie did not forget to give him a fatal blow when they went to chase the three small ones into the secret realm. However, General Heiyu had been in the Bone Hall for many years and had some life-saving skills.

Relying on his life-saving skills and playing dead, he barely escaped.

The first thing he did after returning to the Bone Hall was to gather troops for revenge.

Upon arriving in the valley, General Heiyu was full of bravado, completely devoid of the embarrassment he had when he was playing dead and escaping. He shouted loudly, “Let’s block them here, that dog couple must not have come out yet! They can plot against my Loyalty Hall, this time I have called over brothers from eight halls, let’s see if they can kill them all!”

It seemed that he was worried that Liu Mojie and Master Mu would take the treasures from the secret realm and run away, so he hurriedly gathered people and horses to come back for revenge.

Revenge, every minute counts.

But he was definitely not going to wait for the people he wanted to wait for.

A group of demonic cultivators darkly covered the entire valley, the atmosphere was like a ghost domain, gloomy and cold.

Suddenly, a woman’s figure walked out.

She was tall and slender, with a full chest, thin waist, and long legs. Her eyebrows and eyes were heroic and charming, with a touch of laziness.

Immediately, many eyes with evil thoughts fell on this woman.

She did not reject anyone who came, facing the gazes of many demonic cultivators, she looked up and shouted, “Hey!”

“Kneel down.”

Good morning.

July is over, thank you for your support this month. I just checked, I wrote over 180,000 words in June and July. Although it may not be much compared to others, my previous book was about 100,000 to 110,000 words a month.

At least it shows my attitude.

Especially after getting seriously ill, it’s quite easy to get tired. This update volume for a month, I really tried my best. Although many brothers still think the updates are few every day, this is a problem of my ability, not my attitude. My energy is indeed not enough to maintain a large output, otherwise I would definitely want to write more.

This level is really tiring for me, all I can do is exercise more, keep my energy up, and hope to write more when my health improves.

I will continue to work hard next month.

I wish everyone good things in August.
