“Sister Yan, look, I found some spiritual herbs again, for you!”

Gu Qingchen held a few spiritual herbs that had just been pulled out of the soil in his chubby little hands and handed them to Yan Mengqi.

It had been several hours since the two entered the Xuanhuang Secret Realm.

Thanks to Yan Mengqi’s carefulness along the way, avoiding places with monsters as much as possible, the two had hardly encountered any monsters in a few hours.

Yan Mengqi had made a plan for herself before entering the Xuanhuang Secret Realm.

If you encounter monsters, avoid them if you can, and don’t argue with any cultivators.

After all, her strength is only the first level of the True Spirit, and this level is almost at the bottom in the Xuanhuang Secret Realm.

The fight for treasures, the inheritance of relics, etc., are not something that she, a small True Spirit of the first level, can participate in. Her only goal is the herbs and spiritual fruits scattered throughout the Xuanhuang Secret Realm.

She doesn’t mind low-level ones. If she is lucky enough to encounter a few high-level herbs and spiritual fruits, then she will have hope of being promoted to the inner gate.

“Xiaochen, these herbs you picked are yours, you don’t have to give them to me…”

Gu Qingchen’s spiritual sense is strong, and the spiritual herbs he found along the way are several times more than Yan Mengqi’s, but Gu Qingchen is not interested in these low-level spiritual herbs. In addition to eating a few spiritual fruits, the rest were given to Yan Mengqi.

Along the way, Yan Mengqi took good care of Gu Qingchen, just like her own brother, which greatly increased Gu Qingchen’s favor for her.

“I don’t want them, give them all to my sister.”

Gu Qingchen shook his head. These spiritual herbs were too low-level, and he looked down on them. On weekdays, the spiritual fruits that Gu Changqing gave him were all third- and fourth-level. Gu Qingchen really looked down on these first- and second-level spiritual herbs.

“Okay, I’ll keep it for you first, and I’ll give it to you when we get out.” Yan Mengqi took it first, then squatted down, touched Gu Qingchen’s head, and said, “Also, Xiaochen, your voice… can’t be so loud, understand?”

“Sister is weak, if we attract monsters and some bad monks, we will be in trouble.”

“Oh… I know.”

Gu Qingchen wanted to say that he was not afraid, but when he saw Yan Mengqi’s gentle eyes, he lowered his head again, like a child who had done something wrong.

“Okay, let’s go.”

Rubbing Gu Qingchen’s head, she didn’t blame Gu Qingchen, but this was the survival law of the weak.

“Sister Yan, someone is coming.”

Gu Qingchen, who was about to leave with Yan Mengqi, suddenly stopped and looked to the right front.

There, more than ten breaths were approaching quickly.

Yan Mengqi frowned slightly. She also noticed it, and hurriedly pulled Gu Qingchen to hide behind a boulder to hide her breath.

“Hmm? Senior Brother Lan? Senior Brother Liu?”

Yan Mengqi, who was hiding behind the boulder, was suddenly startled when she saw the people coming. She was originally nervous and relieved instantly.

Yan Mengqi knew these people who suddenly appeared. They were all disciples of Lanyue Palace. Moreover, two of them, Senior Brother Lan and Senior Brother Liu, were true disciples of Lanyue Palace. They were all above the seventh level of True Spirit.

Seeing that the people coming were from the same sect, Yan Mengqi did not hide her figure anymore, and directly took Gu Qingchen out from behind the boulder.

“Senior Brother Lan, Senior Brother Liu!”

Several people also saw Yan Mengqi, but they did not know her.

Yan Mengqi was only an outer disciple of Lanyue Palace, and how many outer disciples of Lanyue Palace were there? As true disciples of the inner sect, it was normal for them not to know her.

But seeing the word “moon” embroidered on Yan Mengqi’s chest, he knew that this girl was from the same sect, and his vigilance was instantly lowered.

“So she is a junior sister from the outer sect. Since we meet, let’s go together.” Senior Brother Lan, who was dressed in brocade, smiled slightly.

Then he suddenly noticed something and looked at Gu Qingchen beside Yan Mengqi, and was stunned.

“Who is he?”

“I picked up this little brother in the secret realm…” Yan Mengqi quickly told Senior Brother Lan and others about how she and Gu Qingchen met and traveled together.

Hearing this, Senior Brother Lan didn’t say anything, but Senior Brother Liu beside him spoke up.

“It’s just a little kid, it’s a burden to bring him along. You have no relationship with him, just throw him away. You can follow us, but he can’t.” Senior Brother Liu glanced at Gu Qingchen, then looked at Yan Mengqi, slightly blaming: “You are really careless. This is the Xuanhuang Secret Realm, full of dangers, not the outside world. Carrying such a little thing is very likely to kill you, understand?”

“Ah…”

Being suddenly scolded, Yan Mengqi was a little at a loss.

“Yes, Junior Sister, quickly throw him away and follow us.”

“Senior Brother Liu is right, your kindness is misplaced.”

Many disciples of Lanyue Palace echoed.

Senior Brother Liu’s words were a bit harsh, but they were also true. This is not the outside world. Carrying a little kid with him is not a big kid.What else can a child do except being a burden to himself?

Yan Mengqi also understood this, but she couldn’t just abandon Gu Qingchen like this.

Gu Qingchen seemed to realize something, and held Yan Mengqi tightly with his little hand, fearing that he would abandon him too.

Without his sister, Yan Mengqi was his only support now.

This move made Yan Mengqi’s heart soften.

“Brother Liu, I know what you said, but… I can’t do it. I have a lot of spiritual herbs picked here, all for you, as long as… I only ask Brother Liu to let me take Xiaochen with me.”

“Forget it, take it with you.” Brother Lan waved his hand and didn’t take the spiritual herbs from Yan Mengqi’s hand.

Brother Lan was also a kind-hearted person, and was deeply loved by his junior brothers and sisters in the sect.

Faced with Yan Mengqi’s pleading, he softened a little.

Senior Brother Liu frowned, snorted coldly, turned around and left directly: “You can take it with you, but I’ll forgive you for not going with me. I don’t want to play any good guy tricks with you.”

“Senior Brother Liu!”

Several other disciples shouted.

“Those who want to follow me, follow me. Those who don’t want to, just stay here and accompany your kind-hearted Senior Brother Lan.”

“This…”

More than a dozen disciples of Lanyue Palace looked at Senior Brother Liu who was leaving, and then looked at Senior Brother Lan, feeling a little embarrassed.

“Senior Brother Lan, I’m sorry…”

A disciple followed him directly.

“Senior Brother Lan, I…”

Including Senior Brother Lan and Senior Brother Liu, there were a total of twelve people, seven of whom followed Senior Brother Liu, and only three chose to stay…

In addition to the fact that the several disciples who followed Senior Brother Liu agreed with what Senior Brother Liu said, the more important point was… Senior Brother Liu’s strength was stronger than Senior Brother Lan!

Although Senior Brother Lan has a good reputation in Lanyue Palace, his realm is only the seventh level of the True Spirit, while Senior Brother Liu… is the eighth level of the True Spirit!

In this dangerous Xuanhuang Secret Realm, it is natural to follow Senior Brother Liu, who is stronger, for more security.

“Aren’t you following?”

Senior Brother Lan laughed at himself and glanced at the three people who stayed behind.

These three people are not strong, only about the first or second level of the True Spirit, two of them are from the outer sect, and one is from the inner sect.

The three also had a bitter smile on their faces.

“We want to follow, but Senior Brother Liu may not want us. Along the way, although Senior Brother Liu did not say it clearly, his words and deeds were full of disdain for the three of us. It’s nothing more than… disliking that the three of us are too weak and dragging us down…”

“Senior Brother Liu, I’m afraid he has wanted to get rid of us for a long time, and this incident just gave him an excuse to get rid of us.”

Senior Brother Lan nodded. These three disciples are not stupid.

“Come with me. I am not as strong as Liu Yang, but I, Lan Wang, will not abandon any of my junior brothers and sisters who follow me.” Senior Brother Lan smiled and said to Yan Mengqi:

“Junior sister, come with me, and bring the little guy beside you.”

“Thank you, Senior Brother Lan!”

Yan Mengqi’s voice was excited.

In this way, the original two-person team became the current six-person team.
