He was already fuming, and when he heard Sheng Susu say that, he blew up too. He said to Sheng Guanghui, "Big brother, why didn't the family tell us there were demonic beasts here?"
"Did the main branch deliberately keep the news from us? Were they afraid we wouldn't listen to them or help Sheng Yantang claim the first platform and be the first disciple to pass the trial and choose a teacher? So they deliberately targeted us, hoping we'd die in the Secret Realm!"
Sheng Susu said, "Exactly! Other families might not know there are demonic beasts in this Secret Realm, but how could our Sheng family not know? Impossible! Besides, they must have placed those platforms here only recently. There's no way they didn't know there were so many demonic beasts here, all of them at such high levels!"
"There's something else I can't figure out. How come all three of us were transported to demonic beast lairs? And they were all beasts at the Herb Gathering Realm!"
"If the three of us ended up like this, I bet everyone else did too!"
"Why would this happen?"
"Those old men keep saying they want to build the Heavenly Pride Hall and cultivate geniuses. But this isn't cultivating geniuses at all—they're obviously out to harm them!"
"If they'd told us beforehand that there were demonic beasts here, we wouldn't have come in so unprepared!"
"Damn it, I was looking forward to gathering herbs in here. Now I haven't gotten a single benefit, and I'm injured to boot! Third brother's the worst off—he even lost an arm!"
Sheng Zhaoliang complained along with Sheng Susu. Sheng Guanghui said nothing, and continued treating Sheng Zhaoliang's wound.
Only when he was reattaching Sheng Zhaoliang's arm did he speak, his voice low and stern.
