The fastest streak of white light paused overhead before plummeting like a meteor.

The young man in the white robe landed first, staring in shock at the headless corpse lying in a pool of blood.

The clothing was similar, a luxurious light gauze and red fabric that barely covered the chest and hips, accentuating a sexy figure.

Just seeing this stunning, beautiful figure brought a woman's face and a seductive smile to Xu Chenguang's mind.

"Impossible, impossible!"

Xu Chenguang had already guessed the identity of the deceased, but the realization terrified him, causing him to stumble back several steps.

"Senior Brother Xu, huh... a man and a woman are dead? This woman..."

Following him, a woman landed and her eyes widened in shock the moment she saw the corpse. She couldn't help but walk over, turning the disheveled head of hair lying nearby, "Liu Mei!"

"Liu Mei is dead..."

As the three landed one after another, they immediately fell into a panicked state.

Xu Chenguang, who held the highest authority in their group, had always been infatuated with Liu Mei.

Upon hearing that Liu Mei had also entered the secret realm, he had unhesitatingly risked flying through the air to search for her.

He had also sensed movement in this area and harbored thoughts of profiting from the situation.

Who would have thought that the scene he would witness would be this.

If it were any other disciple who had died, it would have been one thing.

But it was Liu Mei.

This woman's skills were by no means ordinary. Her strength ranked in the top fifteen among Outer Sect disciples. In a secret realm like this, while she couldn't absolutely crush the demonic beasts and fierce creatures within, she could still maneuver with ease.

If she were facing human cultivators, her chances of winning would be even greater. With her peerless beauty alone, she could captivate cultivators, including those in the Foundation Establishment stage.

"These traces are clearly man-made."

"But everyone in the secret realm is a disciple of the Golden Light Sect. They dared to kill Liu Mei!"

"Senior Brother, I must avenge Senior Sister Liu!"

"That person is truly cold-blooded and heartless, to cruelly destroy such a fairy as Senior Sister Liu Mei."

"The murderer can't have gone far."

The four reacted and looked at Xu Chenguang.

"Let's go, leave immediately! Pretend we were never here!"

Xu Chenguang suddenly snapped back to reality, and with a frantic surge of energy, he took to the air and fled into the distance.

"Pretend we were never here? Senior Brother Xu, with your strength, plus ours, even a Foundation Establishment cultivator would have to be wary of us!"

The others didn't understand but quickly followed.

Xu Chenguang, being fifth in the Outer Sect and the direct grandson of an Outer Sect Elder, possessed extraordinary strength and background. He could do as he pleased in the Outer Sect and was considered a reserve for the elite of the Inner Sect.

They had never seen Xu Chenguang so panicked, as if any delay would mean death.

"Fools, haven't you considered some of the rumors about Liu Mei?

Let me tell you, an Elder of the Golden Core stage from the Inner Sect specifically requested her. Once she reaches Foundation Establishment and joins the Inner Sect, she will become his personal disciple."

After fleeing for ten miles, Xu Chenguang quickly landed, realizing that flying in the air was too conspicuous.

He hastily concealed himself in the forest.

"I've heard similar rumors, but it's said she has the Primal Yin Physique, which is why a powerful figure is cultivating her to then absorb her essence..." the woman in red said hesitantly.

The other three cultivators nodded. Liu Mei was a legendary figure among the Outer Sect disciples of this generation, renowned for her beauty. She was like a poisonous flower; those who dared to approach her, upon hearing some rumors, kept their distance.

"Heh, those Elders still care about their reputation. Saying they'll take her as a personal disciple is just talk.

But regardless of the purpose, Liu Mei is crucial.

Her death will absolutely alert a Golden Core Elder.

Experts at that level possess profound and mysterious techniques.

If we linger at the scene, or if word even reaches the Sect, do you think the Elder will question us gently and kindly, or... will he use a Soul Searching Technique to get the answers he wants?

Let alone us, the disciples who entered this secret realm might all have to pay with their lives for Liu Mei!

We need to get as far away as possible right now."

Xu Chenguang's voice was low, his voice trembling as he explained the reason.

The four were so scared their faces turned ashen.

Even Xu Chenguang himself couldn't guarantee he wouldn't be implicated.

"Whoever killed Liu Mei is beyond our involvement, but we at least need to put distance between ourselves and hope the Elder finds the killer first. Otherwise, we'll all be in trouble!"

The night was deep and silent.

Su Hao crawled out of a nearby deep pit filled with dead leaves.

The situation had been urgent, and he couldn't escape far, so he decided to hide in the nearby pit piled with dead leaves.

For half a day, he used Hidden Kill and Breath Concealment Technique to their fullest to hide himself, and no one noticed.

Initially, several teams of cultivators arrived at the scene one after another, and then they all fled in alarm.

No one dared to interfere in this matter, and no one even thought of picking up Liu Mei's storage bag.

Even the smartest people knew that Liu Mei's storage bag must contain many treasures!

Su Hao's heart pounded. While hiding, he had felt inexplicable palpitations several times, vaguely sensing he was being watched, making him jumpy like a startled bird.

This panic had actually affected the effectiveness of his Breath Concealment Technique and concealment.

If those people had been actively searching for the culprit, they might have exposed his hiding spot due to his panicked state of mind.

Fortunately, everyone was worried about being implicated and was in too much of a hurry to escape. They had no intention of tracking down the culprit.

"Sigh... It seems I've caused a real disaster this time. I'm even scaring myself.

That fleeting sense of being watched must have been an illusion.

If someone had really found me, would they just pretend not to see me?

If they wanted to catch me, they would be making a great contribution."

Su Hao searched Liu Mei's body and took her storage bag, his mind already much calmer.

He dismissed it as fear stemming from Liu Mei's powerful background, causing him to scare himself.

He abandoned the idea of using Corpse Dissolving Water to dispose of the body.

Since the body had already been discovered, someone might cause trouble for themselves and become a scapegoat.

Who knew?

Su Hao quickly fled the scene. "I can't stay in the Golden Light Sect any longer. Returning would be walking into a trap; it would be very difficult to survive.

Escaping the Golden Light Sect at least gives me a slim chance of survival.

Sigh, I shouldn't have been greedy for Lin Zhi Shan's inheritance and Heavenly Medicine Mountain.

It would have been a better choice to flee the Sect directly when Liu Mei was injured and in seclusion. At least then it wouldn't have been a matter of life and death, and she wouldn't have spent so much time hunting me down."

He had studied the map long ago and knew how to leave the Golden Light Sect's territory.

The Golden Light Sect had many hostile forces. In the territory of any one of these hostile forces, they absolutely would not tolerate the arrogance of people from the Golden Light Sect.

It was just that the journey was too long. It was hard to say whether he would escape the Golden Light Sect and its affiliated forces first, or if the Golden Light Sect would find him first.

Over two days, Su Hao killed many fierce beasts and a few ignorant cultivators before finding the exit to the secret realm.

As long as he bypassed the Blood Soul Secret Realm and kept heading north, avoiding the territories of powerful fierce beasts, there wouldn't be too much risk along the way.

"Seeing you in such a hurry to leave the secret realm, you're not planning to return to the Golden Light Sect, are you?"

Just as Su Hao was about to take flight, a voice rang out. The distant sound seemed to possess the ability to seal and restrain, causing Su Hao to freeze on the spot, unable to move.

A Daoist Nun, dressed in a simple white robe, with a pure and elegant appearance, exuded a noble aura that seemed detached from the mortal world. She stood beneath a tree ahead, quietly waiting.
