If you say anything more, your apprentice will die.
In the small courtyard, on the wine table.
Upon hearing this, Zhong Qing didn't stand on ceremony with him but took it into his hand and carefully examined it.
The jade pendant felt slightly heavy in his hand; besides white jade, it was evident that some kind of secret gold had also been added.
The entire jade pendant also featured a map of mountains and earth veins, emitting a mysterious power.
The flowing, crystal-clear white light inside, Zhong Qing knew, was Immortal Qi.
Possessing Immortal Rank medicinal fields and numerous Immortal Rank divine weapons, he recognized the identity of the white light at a glance.
This made Zhong Qing slightly surprised.
Earlier, when Dugu Feng said he knew the whereabouts of a Fallen Immortal Secret Realm, he hadn't shown much emotional fluctuation.
After all, counterfeiting wasn't exclusive to the previous world.
In this world, the trend of counterfeiting was equally prevalent.
A Secret Realm where a small Venerable fell, some dared to boast it was an Emperor's Secret Realm.
Countless obscure Secret Realms were exaggerated into Immortal Realms.
Although he trusted Dugu Feng's character and knew the other party wouldn't trick him with a fake Secret Realm, what if Dugu Feng himself had been tricked?
Therefore, Zhong Qing hadn't held much expectation for this so-called Fallen Immortal Secret Realm before.
But now, it seemed this Secret Realm was indeed quite extraordinary.
As Zhong Qing examined the jade pendant, Dugu Feng explained, "This jade pendant is one of the secret keys to open the Fallen Immortal Secret Realm!"
"Only by gathering three secret keys can that Secret Realm be opened."
"Years ago, I was overly ambitious and thought that with my talent and methods, even without three keys, I would still find a way to open the Fallen Immortal Secret Realm's treasury."
"After spending three thousand years to find the location of this Fallen Immortal Secret Realm, I went there directly."
"But I didn't expect that because I didn't have the three keys, I instead triggered the Secret Realm's guardian, so I couldn't even enter the Secret Realm and was almost killed on the spot by the guardian!"
"Xiao Tu Di Zhong Qing, I am now entrusting this Secret Realm key to you."
"Because in my opinion, only someone of your caliber will have the opportunity to obtain that Secret Realm in the future."
Zhong Qing nodded.
Although he wasn't particularly interested in any Fallen Immortal Secret Realm, no matter what, it was still a treasure.
If he happened to encounter it in the future, even a mosquito's leg is meat; perhaps this key could still be quite useful.
The two of them continued to drink for several more rounds.
The wine was too potent; even Zhong Qing and Dugu Feng, with their alcohol tolerance, felt a bit tipsy.
Dugu Feng told Zhong Qing all the information he knew about the Secret Realm.
Then, he changed the subject, looking at Ye Ji and Fire Enchantress, and asked Zhong Qing, "Xiao Tu Di Zhong Qing, who are these two?"
"These are my two newly recruited Sword Attendants!"
Perhaps it was his age, but he always had a bit of a penchant for lecturing.
Dugu Feng smacked his lips and said to Zhong Qing, "Xiao Tu Di Zhong Qing, your luck with women is truly enviable."
"The beauty of these two, looking across the entire Void Domain, a thousand years back and a thousand years forward, it would be difficult to find anyone comparable!"
"However!"
His eyes darted around, and he whispered to Zhong Qing, "Beauty is a bone-scraping knife; a beautiful woman's embrace is a hero's grave."
"Brother Zhong Qing is a rare genius of ten thousand generations; your focus should be on the path of Cultivation."
"Don't let mere beauty delay your Cultivation!"
As soon as these words came out, the way Ye Ji and Fire Enchantress looked at Dugu Feng completely changed.
At first, they thought this old man was praising their beauty, saying they were unrivaled in the world.
They even felt a little pleased.
After all, this person seemed to have a good relationship with Young Master.
Wasn't this indirectly praising them in front of Young Master?
However, who knew, this old man was truly black-hearted!
He actually said that their existence affected Young Master's Cultivation.
Were they the kind of bad women who could affect Young Master's Cultivation?
At this moment, the two women's gazes towards Dugu Feng became dangerous.
However, Dugu Feng, three parts drunk, didn't notice anything unusual.
He kept lecturing Zhong Qing with his experiences.
"Xiao Tu Di Zhong Qing, as someone who's been there, I'll speak frankly to you."
"Women will only become obstacles on the path of Cultivation!"
...
"As the saying goes, 'rosy cheeks are but a skeleton'; no matter how beautiful a woman is, there will come a day when her beauty fades. On the path of Cultivation, only the Dao is eternal!"
...
"No women in the heart, Cultivation naturally divine!"
...
Regardless of age, when it comes to the topic of women, it seems there are always endless things to talk about.
Dugu Feng started the topic himself, and he became more and more excited as he spoke.
He didn't notice the murderous gazes from Ye Ji and Fire Enchantress, who were practically grinding their back teeth.
But since the other party seemed to have a good relationship with their Master, they naturally didn't dare to vent their anger on him.
However, if they didn't do something, they felt an unbearable Frustrated inside.
Finally, the two of them simultaneously turned their gazes towards Dugu Feng's Xiao Tu Di, Hao Feng.
We can't deal with you, but can't we take it out on the person you brought?
You say one bad thing about us, and we'll inflict a small punishment on your Disciple.
That's fair, isn't it?
Hao Feng was listening intently to his Master's experienced views on women, finding it very interesting and often feeling a strong sense of agreement.
Suddenly, he felt two unfriendly gazes.
Those gazes were too cold and piercing, like two great mountains pressing down on his heart, making him tremble all over and his face flush red.
What terrified him even more was that this terrifying aura carried the unique essence of a Saint Rank expert.
At his level, he naturally couldn't come into contact with experts of the Saint Rank.
But Master Dugu Feng treasured a Half-Saint divine weapon.
He had once felt from afar the unique essence belonging to that Half-Saint divine weapon.
And these two gazes felt far more terrifying than that Half-Saint divine weapon.
This made his heart clench.
A terrifying thought emerged.
These two peerless beauties behind Senior Zhong Qing were actually two... two Saints!
This was too horrifying, too frightening.
Saint Rank experts!
To him, they were Supreme, peerless experts.
Even his own Master was only a Supreme expert.
The key was, he hadn't offended anyone!
Why, out of nowhere, with his Master talking about his experiences, would these two Saint Senior come to trouble a small fry like him?
The next moment, a flash of insight struck him, and he seemed to understand the reason.
He broke out in a cold sweat from fright.
His heart wailed, "Master, please shut up!"
"If you keep talking, your Disciple is going to die!"
