With Huo Lie's protection, during the journey to the core area of the Secret Realm over the past three days, all the Loose Cultivators they encountered had been dealt with by the eager Fire God. It was just a pity that Bao Nu's attitude toward him was still rather mediocre.
Having just dealt with a few obstructive Loose Cultivators, Huo Lie came running over excitedly and said, "Junior Chen, I've got news! The leader from Vermilion Bird Peak this time, Zhu Yingque, has already gathered a large number of fellow disciples in the core of the Secret Realm."
"Really?" Chen Jiuge became somewhat excited as well. These past three days had been nothing but being ambushed or accidentally venturing into the territories of powerful local Spiritual Beasts, which had been utterly bothersome.
Perhaps the route had been cleared by senior brothers from his sect, as there were neither ambushes nor even slightly powerful Spiritual Beasts to be seen.
