574: talk

But just as the two of them were about to refuse,

A voice suddenly came from their ears.

"Agree to him."

Wang Yan's eyes immediately lit up.

Then he said without hesitation,

"The two of us are willing to enter the Secret Realm."

Wang Gou, who was beside him, was stunned and glanced at Wang Yan.

What?

Didn't we agree to be cautious at first?

Why are you suddenly so aggressive now?

Leaving aside whether this Secret Realm is safe, they couldn't believe it when this Imperial Lord offered them such a great Opportunity.

Even if there were truly no problems.

However, the Great Luo Secret Realm must be full of dangers.

How could it be peaceful and uneventful?

This was simply too risky.

But just at this moment,

Wang Gou also suddenly heard a voice in his ear.

"This was my instruction."

As soon as these words came out, Wang Gou immediately understood the whole story.

He no longer spoke excessively.

He stood by and nodded.

"Imperial Lord, as my clan brother said, the two of us agree to enter."

Dongfang Ming nodded, looking quite satisfied.

Meanwhile, Wang Dong's eyes flickered in the dark.

He stared intently at where Dongfang Ming was.

If he hadn't misjudged what he felt in the Great Earth Square just now,

The power that could erode Divine Stones should be this person.

Now, combining this with the news about the Great Luo Secret Realm,

He feared that this person had already entered the Secret Realm more than once.

He might even have been injured there; otherwise, his Qi wouldn't give him such a flickering feeling.

This Secret Realm, he feared, was somewhat special.

Wang Dong pondered continuously.

At the same time, Dongfang Ming spoke again.

"Since you all have agreed, then I will tell you about the more important special spiritual items within the Secret Realm."

"The most important is the Divine Origin Fruit. Just one piece can advance your cultivation to the Middle Stage of the True Immortal Realm. If you eat another piece, you can completely stabilize your Realm cultivation."

"Of course, Opportunity often comes with danger. This might require you to take risks. I’ve already told you this, and you’ve all agreed. I’m just reiterating it now to keep you vigilant within the Secret Realm."

"Don't end up unable to get out, and everything turns to naught."

Dongfang Ming's expression was extremely solemn.

He seemed to be very concerned about them.

Wang Gou's eyes flickered continuously.

Her intuition told her that this old man in front of her seemed to be increasingly ill-intentioned.

In fact, if it weren't for Wang Dong, she wouldn't have planned to enter the Secret Realm this time.

However, now that she had a trump card, there was no need to worry.

But she still needed to be careful later on.

As Dongfang Ming's words fell,

All three of them nodded.

"Imperial Lord is too polite. We are all willing. Even if danger arises within, we will never blame the Imperial Lord."

Chen Peng said loudly.

Wang Yan and the other also gave their assurances.

Dongfang Ming nodded.

"In that case, you all should return and rest for now. One month later, I will host a banquet within the Imperial City and await you all."

Dongfang Ming issued an order for them to leave.

The three of them turned and departed.

Not long after, Dongfang Ming looked into the Void Realm.

His expression was utterly calm, and he said loudly,

"Daoist Wang, since you're already here, why hide? There's no need for such wariness between us."

As soon as these words came out, Wang Dong no longer concealed himself.

His figure flickered.

He slowly appeared in the main hall.

He looked at Dongfang Ming, who was seated on the imperial throne, and smiled faintly.

"Fellow Daoist is indeed exceptionally astute; you actually discovered this."

In reality, if Wang Dong hadn't intentionally exposed a trace of his Qi, the other party still wouldn't have been able to discover him.

The reason he actively exposed a trace was to peek into the other party's specific thoughts.

If he was truly planning a massacre in the Secret Realm, he might have to consider whether to let his two juniors enter it.

If he only had other intentions, then they could discuss cooperation.

Of course, the premise of cooperation was that the other party told her everything.

If not, the matter would be dropped.

Dongfang Ming smiled.

"Fellow Daoist overpraises me."

He didn't dwell on this matter too much.

Instead, he changed the subject.

"I presume Fellow Daoist has something to discuss with me this time."

"Since Fellow Daoist has discovered it, I will no longer conceal it. I have brought an Opportunity to the Great Wu Imperial Dynasty this time."

As soon as these words came out, Dongfang Ming's face immediately showed a puzzled expression.

Then he revealed a slight smile.

"Daoist Wang, one needs to be honest. You say you've brought an Opportunity to my Great Wu Imperial Dynasty? May I ask what kind of Opportunity it is?"

"As far as I know, although the Wang family has established itself in the Immortal Realm, it lacks a foundation. It even fought with the Nine Profound Sect over a mine, resulting in rivers of blood."

"You're not planning to drag me into such muddy waters, are you?"

Wang Dong smiled.

But he didn't speak.

Dongfang Ming saw this and stared intently at Wang Dong.

After a moment, he spoke.

"Fellow Daoist, let's be frank. You can speak freely about any thoughts you have. There's no need for us to scheme against each other. If the sincerity you offer is sufficient, I don't mind cooperating."

Wang Dong smiled.

"There's no need for many words on this matter; I just need to give you a hint."

As his voice fell, Wang Dong transmitted a secret message.

A moment later, a sentence reached Dongfang Ming's ear.

Immediately, Dongfang Ming's expression changed.

Wang Dong, however, turned and vanished from his spot.

At the same time, on the other side.

The Eldest Prince was hosting Wang Changfeng.

"This Fellow Daoist, you are truly a capable and powerful person."

"Although I don't know why you're involved with my Sixth Brother, there are some things I still want to make clear to you."

Wang Changfeng smiled, but did not respond.

The Eldest Prince didn't mind and spoke quickly and directly.

"My Imperial Father intends to pass the throne to me. If you continue to associate with Sixth Brother, I fear you will face retribution in the future."

"Your Highness's words are somewhat biased. My association with the Sixth Prince is not driven by any ambition to contend for the Dragon Throne; it is simply because our temperaments and personalities are compatible," Wang Changfeng said calmly.

The Eldest Prince gave a disdainful laugh.

However, he did not use overly aggressive words.

Instead, he spoke in a deep voice.

"I haven't interfered much with the matters between the two of you. Whether it's friendship or benefit, you yourselves know better than I do."

"I'll just say one thing: are you willing to leave Sixth Brother's side? You can serve me, or become a rogue cultivator; as long as you don't step into these muddy waters, I can give you a pass."

"When the time for reckoning comes, I will spare Fellow Daoist."

"Don't rush to refuse; placing bets always starts on both ends."
