612: crisis

"What? Do you really think I wouldn't dare? This is inside the Great Luo Secret Realm. Even if your Clan Chief of the Wang family had heaven-defying abilities, could he save you here?"

Dongfang Yao's tone was full of disdain.

As he spoke, he waved his large hand.

An astonishingly powerful suction instantly fell upon The two members of the Wang family.

A trace of anxiety flashed in Wang Yan's eyes.

The threads entanglement around his body were quite peculiar.

These blood-red threads, although they bound his cultivation, made him unable to resist.

If he truly let things continue like this, he feared he would end up like those skeletons.

He quickly looked at Wang Gou to the side.

"Do you have any ideas over there?"

Wang Gou gently shook his head.

His face was extremely grim, and his expression was defeated.

He hadn't expected that after such a long time, he would still fall into a trap here.

If he had known, he wouldn't have gotten on the boat in the first place.

Now he had nowhere to run.

Moreover, his current state was no different from Wang Yan's.

He was also bound by the suction, and his cultivation was almost completely immobilized by the red threads wrapped around his body.

Even if he wanted to resist, there was nothing he could do.

In a short moment, both men were directly seized by Dongfang Yao.

"Today, I shall let you two Fellow Daoists help me advance further in my cultivation."

He laughed wildly, looking up at the sky, then suddenly squeezed.

It seemed that in the next moment, he would wring their necks and massively devour their cultivation.

But at this very moment, something astonishing occurred.

The red threads instantly broke.

Immediately after, the suction he had released from his hand vanished without a trace in an instant.

The two members of the Wang family instantly fell.

This scene, however, greatly shocked Dongfang Yao, leaving him with an incredulous expression.

"Who is it? Who is causing trouble?"

He could feel that just now, an invisible force had interrupted his process of devouring the two.

And the cultivation was extremely powerful.

He felt somewhat troublesome.

Could it be Zhan Lang?

Dongfang Yao's mind suddenly brought up that person's name.

It was simply that Zhan Lang had been too outstanding throughout their journey.

Among all the people who had entered, the only one he now feared was Zhan Lang.

Yet, he also felt somewhat incredulous.

After all, although Zhan Lang was powerful, his current self was not weak either.

The other party shouldn't be able to crush him like this.

Besides him, who else could it be?

Just as he was wondering, a figure slowly appeared.

He stood in the Void Realm, his posture majestic, his expression utterly calm.

In his eyes, the sun, moon, and stars seemed to revolve, dazzling and brilliant.

He stood there quietly, watching Dongfang Yao.

Dongfang Yao's heart immediately sank.

He had thought this person might appear.

But when the other party truly appeared, he was momentarily flustered.

He didn't know what to do.

Zhan Lang's presence here largely proved that he had followed him all along.

So, daring to show himself at this moment likely meant he was extremely confident in his own strength.

Could it be that even facing him, Zhan Lang had the ability to win?

But this seemed somewhat unlikely.

Zhan Lang should not have been in the True Immortal Realm when he entered the Secret Realm.

Yet, he had previously displayed the strength of the True Immortal Realm.

This was also due to an existence that was deeply hidden.

Like him, or even far surpassing him.

One could not judge his true combat power by his external Realm.

Would he have to fall here?

Dongfang Yao felt a pang of unwillingness.

He had planned for so long; could it be that at the last moment, all his efforts would be in vain?

No, absolutely impossible.

Dongfang Yao gritted his teeth, his expression gradually becoming resolute.

"Zhan Lang, there is no grievance between you and me. I advise you not to meddle."

Zhan Lang did not speak. Instead, he looked at The two members of the Wang family.

After seeing that the two seemed to be unharmed, he turned his head back.

But The two members of the Wang family first felt somewhat incredulous.

They hadn't expected to see Zhan Lang everywhere.

And he had saved them again and again.

This was already the second time.

If only counting assistance, then this should actually be the third time.

But how was this possible?

Had the other party been paying attention to them all this time?

Was there some relationship between them that they didn't know about?

Just as the two were pondering, Zhan Lang suddenly spoke.

"You certainly have some tricks; you can even lay hands on your own kin."

"I admire your Heart-Nature, but I despise your character."

Dongfang Yao's expression immediately darkened.

"What do you mean by that?"

Zhan Lang chuckled.

"Are you still pretending not to know? I must commend you for being able to go this far."

At this point, Zhan Lang's figure descended a few feet.

Then he spoke indifferently.

"That Thatched Hut in the bamboo forest was your doing, wasn't it? You exploited the rebellious psychology of most people, making them feel that they were the chosen ones, and that the more dilapidated a place, the more likely it was to contain astonishing Opportunities."

"You even specifically arranged for people to go in first and reap rewards. I have to admit, you succeeded."

"Anyone who enters and soaks in the immortal pool will become your Puppet, and even their cultivation can be devoured by you at any time."

"You are truly something."

As he said this, Zhan Lang couldn't help but sneer.

It seemed that in his eyes, the other party's methods were only mediocre.

As Zhan Lang's words revealed the truth, Wang Yan and Wang Gou suddenly understood.

They had wondered why these people's attitudes had seemed so strange along the way.

So, it was this person in front of them who was behind it all.

Entering and soaking in the immortal pool, and then becoming a Puppet.

Seeing the white bones lying in the corner, both of them felt a chill of fear.

Wang Yan couldn't help but pat his chest and say,

"Good thing, good thing, at the last critical moment, it was your caution that saved us."

Wang Gou smiled bitterly and shook his head.

"Don't say that. Actually, at the critical moment, I also wavered a bit. The reason I was able to resist soaking in the end was thanks to Zhan Lang's sound transmission to me."

"So, strictly speaking, this is the fourth time Zhan Lang has saved us."

Wang Yan deeply agreed.

He looked at Zhan Lang with a somewhat different gaze.

This was even closer than their own father!

Saving them again and again.

And even now, he had not asked them for any reward.

Giving without asking for anything in return.

There was no such good thing in the world.

For a moment, he didn't know what to say.

But at this moment, Dongfang Yao sneered.

"Heh heh, I knew something unexpected would happen with you, but even if you know everything, what can you do?"

"The current me is not the me from before. After I kill you, nothing will be spread."
