"Of course, let’s get on the carriage."
Once on the Xuan Turtle Carriage, Ling Xiao smiled and asked, "I remember His Highness was once attacked
by Demon Dragon Sect assassins on the way to Thunder City. I wonder what happened at that time?"
"Fortunately, my wise brother diverted one of the experts from the Demon Dragon Sect, which allowed me and
Min’er to join forces and kill a few of them, and we returned to Thunder City.
It’s just a pity that our Thirteenth Brother was taken away by them."
When the Wise and Virtuous King mentioned the Thirteenth Prince, there wasn’t a hint of regret on his face;
instead, he seemed quite pleased.
"Does this Demon Dragon Sect truly dare to oppose the Royal Clan?"
Ling Xiao now regarded the Wise King Edward Chen Endless as his encyclopedia.
Since they were in a cooperative relationship, he asked, knowing the other would certainly answer as it wasn’t
a secret matter.
"The Demon Dragon Sect!
It is the largest cult within the Chen Dynasty and our most terrifying enemy!
Originally created by an expert from the Volcano Kingdom, it later expanded vastly, spreading throughout
the Chen Dynasty like a wild prairie fire.
Disciples are spread across the Chen Dynasty, with their actions aimed at disintegrating Chen Royal authority!"
Chen Canglan sighed and said, "To eradicate the Demon Dragon Sect, the Royal Clan has launched several large-scale
sweeping operations. Yet, the Demon Dragon Sect seems like weeds that spring up again with the spring breeze.
Though their collective strength is not comparable to the Chen Royal Family or the Secret Realm Academy,
some individuals have extremely high talent and great strength.
So even after all these years, neither side can do anything about the other."
Ling Xiao pondered secretly; he had encountered more than one member of the Demon Dragon Sect.
Some were sincere, like Water Elder!
But others were sinister and cunning, like Lin Quan.
So what kind of Sect was it exactly was still unclear, but one thing was certain: this Sect was definitely
an enemy of the Chen Royal Family.
It is an extension of the Volcano Kingdom’s regime.
"Wise brother, members of the Demon Dragon Sect appear no different from ordinary people, so you must be extremely
careful.
The last time you killed the disciples of the Demon Dragon Sect, even though those disciples weren’t very strong.
But since you did that, the Demon Dragon Sect might target you."
The Wise and Virtuous King reminded.
"Thank you, Your Highness, for your concern. I understand."
Ling Xiao would not easily side with anyone.
Whether it’s the Chen Royal Family or the Demon Dragon Sect.
Both are issues he must resolve.
He wants to incorporate the Chen Dynasty into the domain of the Heavenly Dynasty Empire; if he can’t control these forces, he will have to destroy them.
Soon, the Xuan Turtle Carriage arrived at the Wisdom Sage King Mansion.
The scale of this Mansion wasn’t large and appeared quite plain.
Yet the overall construction clearly involved special design, concealing the mysteries of Array Formation; any unwitting
fool trying to mess with the Mansion would likely suffer greatly.
Above the main gate of the Wisdom Sage King Mansion, two ferocious cobras were carved.
To the average person, these appeared as carvings, but Ling Xiao, knowledgeable about Array Formations, understood.
These fierce cobras were Monster Beasts guarding the mansion.
They were the most loyal and terrifying guards.
It’s estimated that Martial Artists with Cultivation Levels under the First Transformation Yin-Yang Realm Tenth Level Hell,
if they trespassed without prior notice, would be devoured by these poisonous snakes in an instant.
In front of the Mansion’s gate, passersby seeing the Wise and Virtuous King personally holding Ling Xiao’s hand as they
walked into the Mansion, exclaimed in surprise.
"What kind of identity does that youth hold for the Wise and Virtuous King to be so intimate with him?"
"You don’t know, do you? But I do. That youth in the outer city directly crippled the Fourteenth Prince’s cousin.
The very one who arrogantly paraded around daily, bullying foreign martial artists and treating their heads as toys,
that vicious woman."
"Is he very powerful?"
"Of course he’s strong, but there’s an even stronger woman by his side, rumored to be his master, from the Golden
Heaven."
The crowd buzzed with conversation, clearly developing a strong interest in the mysterious youth, Ling Xiao.
Along with some awe.
Listening to their discussions, an almost imperceptible smile appeared on the Wise and Virtuous King’s face.
His intent was actually quite simple: to deliberately demonstrate friendliness towards Ling Xiao.
So the entire Imperial Capital would know Ling Xiao was his man.
In this way, Yue Fang Hua would naturally also become his person.
With such a formidable helper, those plotting against him would naturally have to reconsider the stakes.
This would undoubtedly strengthen his influence invisibly.
The moment he stepped into the Mansion, Ling Xiao sensed something peculiar beneath it.
"Such a cunning Wise and Virtuous King, there’s either a Giant Beast trapped beneath the Mansion or a powerful Martial
Artist?"
Due to the layers of Array Formation concealment, Ling Xiao’s Tai Chi Eye couldn’t clearly see.
But what was certain was that beneath the Mansion lay a powerful convective force of light and heat, continuously
emitting energy that could accelerate the cultivation speed for the Martial Artists within the Mansion.
"I wonder what good thing is down there. If it is indeed something related to thermal energy, it could be devoured by the Little Demoness, and my External Incarnation should grow stronger."
He chuckled to himself, naturally not making a fuss.
Nothing was clear at the moment, so he definitely wouldn’t act recklessly.
At present, what concerned him most was the situation with the Imperial Extreme Secret Realm.
The reason he wanted to join the Secret Realm Academy was for the Imperial Extreme Secret Realm.
So once he settled down in the Mansion, Ling Xiao cut straight to the point and asked, "Your Highness, can I report to
the Secret Realm Academy today?
Can I enter the Imperial Extreme Secret Realm soon?"
He noticed that when the four words "Imperial Extreme Secret Realm" were mentioned, Yue Fang Hua’s body seemed to tremble slightly.
It wasn’t a tremble of fear, but one of excitement.
Could it be that Yue Fang Hua also wanted to enter this Imperial Extreme Secret Realm?
Ling Xiao planned to ask later; if Yue Fang Hua truly needed something from within the Imperial Extreme Secret Realm, he
would help obtain it at all costs.
She was his woman, and had protected him many times; doing something for her was only right.
Even if it meant taking risks, it was absolutely worth it.
"You don’t need to report to the Secret Realm Academy; regarding the quota, I will handle it for you.
Your current task is to prepare for entering the Imperial Extreme Secret Realm."
Chen Canglan said, "The Imperial Extreme Secret Realm opens once a month, with a duration of half a month, and in two
days’ time, it will be the beginning of the month.
According to the regulations of the Imperial Extreme Secret Realm, entrants must be disciples of the Secret Realm Academy, and they also need a recommendation from a Prince or a Great King to qualify for entry.
This time, our Wisdom Sage King Mansion will send six people into the Imperial Extreme Secret Realm, and with you, Lin Ruoxian, and Yue Shang, it will be a total of nine people.
The Fourteenth Prince’s side will probably have around ten people entering, while other princes could at most recommend one or two quotas, which can essentially be ignored.
I have only one request: once inside the Imperial Extreme Secret Realm, kill as many Yuanling Clan as possible to obtain
the Yuanling Crystals within them, which can greatly enhance your Cultivation Level.
But the Yuanling Clan is quite strong, so for now, just follow along to gain experience, make sure not to lag behind."
From Chen Canglan’s words, Ling Xiao captured the key issue.
In two days, he could enter the Imperial Extreme Secret Realm and stay inside for half a month’s time.
