Jialan looked down at the entrance to the secret realm, his expression shifting between anger and uncertainty. "This human man was able to forcibly open the Soul-Locking Secret Realm; he must be quite powerful. I need to find a way to deal with him, or things will get out of hand."
"That damned Jialan, I won't let him get away with this!" Upon hearing about Liu Mengli's ordeal, Liu Qin was filled with rage, and a strong killing intent spread throughout the entire secret realm.
As if remembering something, she looked at the nine skeletons, a trace of pain on her face. "It's my fault. If it weren't for me, they wouldn't have died such a tragic death here."
Liu Mengli felt heavy-hearted. After a long while, she gently waved her hand, and the nine skeletons disappeared, stored in her spatial ring.
"Let's go, let's kill Jialan and avenge those elders!" Liu Mengli's face was frosty, like an iceberg, chillingly cold.
"Now, the Spirit Race is probably under his control. It won't be easy for us to turn the tide." Liu Qin clenched her fists, her expression complex and helpless.
"Are all those elders on Jialan's side? How dare they!" Liu Mengli said through gritted teeth, puzzled.
Liu Qin shook her head and said, "I don't know why either, but I feel there must be something fishy going on. Otherwise, how could so many elders all side with Jialan?"
She looked up at the exit of the secret realm and said worriedly, "Your forceful opening of the secret realm must have already alerted Jialan. He's probably waiting for us outside now. How can the three of us face them?"
Liu Mengli's eyes flickered, her gaze falling on Su Chen. A faint smile curved her lips. "Dean, what do you think..."
"Alright, enough said, I understand, let's go." Su Chen interrupted, shaking his head and smiling, then took to the air and flew towards the outside of the secret realm. He had come along to protect Liu Mengli from harm, so naturally he couldn't let Jialan attack the two women.
Liu Qin was taken aback at first, then her expression changed drastically. She was about to call out to Su Chen when Liu Mengli suddenly said, "Sister, it's alright. The dean is very strong. Let's follow him."
Liu Qin frowned, looking puzzled. Before she could ask, Liu Mengli grabbed her hand and rushed towards the entrance of the secret realm.
Liu Qin hesitated, but then she thought of her clever younger sister; she couldn't possibly lead her into doing anything foolish. She looked at Su Chen and Mengli ahead. Why did they trust this man so much? Could he possibly stand against Jialan, who had already taken control of the entire Spirit Race? Probably not.
It should be noted that the Spirit Race has a great many Immortal Emperor experts, numbering at least several hundred, and each of them possesses terrifying strength, almost invincible within their own realm. Among them are dozens of Peak Immortal Emperor clan elders. However, these Peak Immortal Emperor clan elders have almost all retired, only appearing when the Spirit Race faces an insurmountable enemy; otherwise, they will not appear.
Currently, there are only three Peak Immortal Emperor still alive in the entire Spirit Race. One of them is her, another is Jialan, and the last one is in a semi-retired state.
Even if those elders at the Peak Immortal Emperor retire, Su Chen still wouldn't be a match for Jialan, because Jialan controls hundreds of Immortal Emperor! What does hundreds of Immortal Emperor mean? That's practically enough to sweep across the entire Immortal Realm!
Therefore, Liu Qin really couldn't understand how Su Chen would deal with this. Could it be that he also had hundreds of Immortal Emperor behind him?
How is that possible!
It's impossible for the Human Race to have that many Immortal Emperor; otherwise, how could the Human Domain rank fifth among the Five Realms? Even if they did, they wouldn't listen to Su Chen, because the Human Race isn't ruled by a single king like the Spirit Race.
Human Race prefer to establish their own sects and be their own leaders, and dislike being ordered around. Therefore, it is definitely impossible for Su Chen to have hundreds of Immortal Emperor behind him.
Since that's impossible, does it mean this Young Master Su possesses terrifying strength? At most, he'd be at the Peak Immortal Emperor; surely he couldn't be at that level? That's even more impossible. That realm hasn't appeared for countless years, and besides, who doesn't know that the Heavenly Dao forbids that realm from existing?
Why would Mengli trust this Young Master Su so much?
Liu Qin frowned, racking her brains but still unable to figure it out, so she finally gave up. Since Liu Mengli believed in Su Chen, she believed in him too. Even if she couldn't hold on in the end, she had a way to escape. Although that would cause a backlash and a regression in her cultivation, it was still better than dying at the hands of Jialan.
The moment the three left the secret realm, they were immediately locked onto by hundreds of terrifying forces, as if these hundreds of auras would overwhelm them if they made any move.
"It's the Elf Queen!" The Spirit Race members erupted in excitement upon seeing Liu Qin, their faces beaming with joy and reverence.
In truth, these ordinary beings of the Spirit Race preferred Liu Qin to be their queen. Liu Qin loved her people like her own children, was kind, and would never kill her people without cause. On the other hand, Jialan was more domineering, killing without blinking an eye, killing without reason, killing whenever he was unhappy. They hadn't realized this before, but after the Elf Queen was imprisoned, they understood just how cruel Jialan was.
"Hmm?" Jialan snorted coldly. As his gaze swept across the area, a chill swept out like a raging flood. The sky and earth changed color, a gale suddenly arose, and countless members of the Spirit Race collapsed to their knees, their faces pale with fear.
" Jialan, how dare you!" Upon seeing this, Liu Qin's expression turned cold. She took a step forward, and the powerful pressure of Peak Immortal Emperor erupted, forming ripples that spread outwards, resisting Jialan's pressure.
The intense light poured down on Liu Qin, and a divine halo appeared beneath her feet, making her dazzling and radiating a sacred and majestic aura. Golden light intertwined and swirled, causing the entire world to tremble.
Her originally gentle face now seemed to have been sculpted by a god, exuding an extraordinary coldness and nobility, and her whole being revealed an irresistible aura.
Every gesture she made exuded domineering power and dignity, completely dispelling her former ordinariness. Standing before the Spirit Race was none other than the Elf Queen, who ruled the Spirit Race and was revered by all. She possessed a powerful aura that commanded the world's submission, making people dare not look directly at her and only look up to her with awe.
All the Spirit Race members were trembling, their faces filled with excitement and anticipation as they looked at their king, but they dared not show it too much, because Jialan's face was extremely pale.
"Hehe, this is more like the older sister I know!" Liu Mengli looked at Liu Qin at this moment, a beautiful smile on her face.
Su Chen was also somewhat surprised; Liu Qin at this moment was completely different from before.
Brothers, I took a day off yesterday, sorry! I'll be updating like crazy tomorrow!
