622: Search failed

“We didn’t find anything.”

“Neither the spirit source fruit, nor…”

With a bang.

Before the White-haired Elder could finish speaking, he was sent flying.

Dongfang Ruo’s expression was extremely grim.

“Do you think this is the kind of news you should tell me? If you can’t find it, go back and keep searching.”

“Or are you suggesting the information is false?”

“I’m telling you, my Imperial Father told me this. Do you think he has a reason to lie to me?”

Dongfang Ruo spoke in a cold voice, devoid of any human emotion, and even a hint of killing intent appeared in his eyes as he looked at the White-haired Elder.

He didn't actually want to do this.

But the people below had wasted so much time here without any results.

This truly made him anxious.

One must know that he had entered the Center of the Secret Realm ahead of everyone else.

He had initially thought everything would be secured first.

But unexpectedly, after such a long time, not only did he not have any lead,

but the gap he had opened with everyone else was slowly being closed at this moment.

It shouldn't be like this.

Dongfang Ruo’s expression was extremely cold.

His entire being exuded a foul Aura.

He walked step by step towards the outside of the hall.

“What are you all good for?”

Upon seeing the subordinates gathered outside the door,

Dongfang Ruo roared in anger.

His voice resonated like a thunderclap from the nine heavens.

Of course, this was him trying his best to restrain himself.

Otherwise, the entire area would have heard his roar.

Yet, even so, it still made many people feel the tremor from this side.

Pairs of eyes looked over, thinking that an astonishing exotic beast had appeared here.

The group of people being roared at all lowered their heads, not a single one daring to look directly at Dongfang Ruo.

No one had expected that after searching for so long here,

they would return with no Harvest whatsoever.

Too much time had been wasted for nothing.

Let alone His Highness the Prince being dissatisfied.

Even they themselves were somewhat dissatisfied.

What did they enter the Secret Realm for?

On one hand, it was naturally to serve His Highness.

On the other hand, wasn’t it for themselves?

Within the Great Luo Secret Realm, Opportunities were abundant.

As long as they could find even a little, they could advance further in this life.

But what was the situation now?

Even though they searched desperately, they still had no Harvest.

It was not surprising that they would suspect that the information His Highness the Prince received was false.

After all, this was the Center of the Secret Realm.

Logically speaking, it should be the place with the most Opportunities.

But the reality was, they found nothing.

It was impossible not to feel discouraged.

But they had no recourse now.

Facing the roar of His Highness the Second Prince,

besides lowering their heads and accepting it, they couldn't find any way to respond. For a moment, everyone fell silent.

And Dongfang Ruo’s roar continued.

After an unknown amount of time,

Dongfang Ruo finally calmed down a bit.

He composed himself and looked at the group of useless people, like quails, before him.

He couldn't help but speak coldly.

“Enough!”

“I knew you were useless, but I didn’t expect you to be this useless.”

And just at this moment, a Cultivator suddenly rushed in from outside.

“Report.”

“Speak.”

Dongfang Ruo spoke indifferently.

At this critical moment, if this subordinate couldn't provide information that would capture his attention,

he wouldn't mind giving the other party a blade, sending him to the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss.

Of course, he wasn't that brutal.

It was just that the current situation had truly made him feel irritable from the bottom of his heart.

And this subordinate naturally sensed the serious atmosphere.

His gaze constantly swept over everyone.

Finally, he lowered his head and spoke in a hushed voice.

“Your subordinate has discovered the whereabouts of Zhan Lang of the Zhan Tian Sect.”

“Zhan Lang?”

Hearing this name, Dongfang Ruo’s eyes narrowed.

He was not unfamiliar with this person.

He had even heard information about him more than once.

But every time he heard about him, it brought him considerable pressure.

The opponent’s combat power was too strong.

He had almost swept through everything, never encountering any opponent, which was truly difficult to bear.

“Continue.”

Dongfang Ruo was clearly interested in Zhan Lang.

He immediately told his subordinate to continue speaking.

The man then continued.

“Not long ago, we discovered that His Highness the Third Prince seemed to have controlled His Highness the Fifth Prince by some means, and then His Highness the Third Prince was slain by Zhan Lang.”

As soon as these words came out, everyone present fell silent.

A cold light shot out from Dongfang Ruo’s eyes instantly.

Although he was not on good terms with his brothers and sisters,

this did not mean that outsiders could kill them at will.

Who was the Third Prince?

That was his third brother, of his own Bloodline!

He should not have been slain by a minor henchman of the Zhan Tian Sect, no matter what.

Admittedly, Zhan Lang of the Zhan Tian Sect was indeed powerful.

Among those who entered the Secret Realm this time, he might even rank in the first tier.

But this could not be a reason for him to slay his own brother.

This grudge must be avenged.

Instantly, a sharp Aura emanated from his body.

It seemed as if he wanted to soar to the high heavens at this moment, displaying supreme might.

Immediately, a cold voice came from his mouth.

“Continue!”

The subordinate was pressured by the Aura emanating from Dongfang Ruo, and he couldn't help but lower his head even further before speaking softly.

“Then, just now, we found traces of Zhan Lang of the Zhan Tian Sect. He seems to have arrived at the Center of the Secret Realm very early. Your subordinate observed some traces and found that many places that should have contained rare treasures had signs of being artificially picked.”

“Coupled with the figure I occasionally glimpsed before, I was able to determine Zhan Lang’s whereabouts.”

Dongfang Ruo nodded.

He turned his head and looked at the people behind him again.

After a moment of thought, he spoke in a deep voice.

“I don’t believe that all the spirit source fruits in this Center of the Secret Realm have been picked.”

“Go deep and search for me.”
