86: Loot? Just this garbage?
Not long after, Tang Tian finally understood why Nie Keke had teamed up with him.
Because the Demon Clan Royal Family's trials were truly not for the faint of heart.
According to Nie Keke, at the beginning of each trial, tens of thousands of people entered.
However, if a thousand people managed to survive and leave, it was considered a blessing.
It wouldn't be surprising if fewer than a hundred people managed to leave alive.
It's worth noting that among these tens of thousands of people, the Prodigies of the Demon Clan Royal Family accounted for less than a quarter.
The rest were mostly Prodigies hired at great cost by their respective backing forces.
Had the Prodigies Lord Xiaoyaos Estate invited to assist them, including Nie Keke, all died at the hands of Yao Beasts not long ago?
And she had barely escaped?
"So, you're teaming up with me, are you planning to use me as a shield?"
After listening, Tang Tian looked at Nie Keke and asked with a face full of black lines.
"You can't say that; we're both getting what we need, aren't we?"
Nie Keke blinked, her eyes full of innocence, and said.
"Hmm?"
Tang Tian paused, then looked at her with confusion.
Getting what they needed?
Why didn't he know?
"If I'm not mistaken, you must be from a top-tier force, or a high-level Disciple of some mysterious, peerless expert, right?"
"By what special method did you get in here?"
"You team up with me, I help you keep this secret, and we'll advance and retreat together from now on. Isn't that getting what we both need?"
Nie Keke smiled, staring intently at Tang Tian's face.
"Why do you say that?"
Tang Tian raised an eyebrow and asked curiously.
"It's simple!"
"Normally, if you were someone else hired to assist, there's no way you'd team up with this princess."
"The cost of betraying them is not something just anyone can bear."
"Also, you knew my identity and didn't react much. If it were anyone else, even other members of the Royal Family, they would be filled with awe towards me, right?"
Nie Keke spread her hands, analyzing clearly and logically.
Hearing Nie Keke's words, Tang Tian was speechless.
In his heart, he was secretly embarrassed.
He was too careless!
Why hadn't he thought about these issues?
Good thing he met this girl!
"Hehe!"
"I was right, wasn't I?"
"I knew it!"
"Actually, you're quite interesting. They all say I'm a little devil, and they all hide far away when they see me, which is boring! But you're not afraid of me at all."
Seeing Tang Tian not speak, Nie Keke continued.
Suddenly, Tang Tian didn't know what to say.
He also had a bad feeling in his heart.
Little devil?
In other words, how many people had this little girl offended outside?
Here, people probably wouldn't have any scruples, right?
Which meant, weren't the two of them surrounded by enemies everywhere?
Just thinking about it gave Tang Tian a massive headache.
"Tang Tian, what are you worried about?"
"In this Secret Realm trial, everyone is an enemy, isn't that right?"
As if guessing Tang Tian's thoughts, Nie Keke continued.
"You win!"
Tang Tian looked deeply at Nie Keke and said with a wry smile.
While chatting, the two continued to move forward.
Unknowingly, they had arrived on a blood-red plain.
"Oh, right, Tang Tian, I forgot to ask you."
"What is your strength exactly? You're not in the Nirvana Realm, are you?"
Suddenly remembering something, Nie Keke asked with concern.
Tang Tian responded to Nie Keke's question with a smile and silence.
Nirvana Realm?
Heh heh!
Who was she looking down on?
As long as they weren't existences above the Quasi-Saint-Grade, he could easily eliminate them all, okay?
Even if he was currently only at the Yin Yang Realm, Ninth Level Peak!
But who made the Cultivation Technique he Cultivated Heaven-Defying?
Wasn't it reasonable for his combat power to be a bit outrageous?
Seeing Tang Tian's expression, Nie Keke's heart settled.
It seemed this guy's strength was not weak!
That's good!
"By the way, Nie Keke, what is the strength of the strongest Prodigy who entered this Secret Realm trial?"
Tang Tian turned his head to look at Nie Keke and asked.
"Yin Yang Realm, Sixth Level, and their combat power is even stronger than their Realm."
Nie Keke replied, staring into Tang Tian's eyes.
"Oh."
Tang Tian nodded, showing no great reaction.
However, in his heart, he was secretly astonished.
Yin Yang Realm, Sixth Level?
Even stronger combat power?
Under twenty years old?
With these three points, no one on the Endless Continent could achieve it, right?
Except for himself!
The Demon Clan Royal Family was truly formidable!
Some top-tier Prodigies under twenty years old were actually at the Yin Yang Realm?
"Oh?"
Tang Tian's reaction made Nie Keke's eyebrows twitch wildly.
She wondered if she had underestimated this guy.
The more she thought about it, the more she felt it was possible.
No wonder this guy dared to casually team up with her!
No wonder he didn't react much when she revealed her identity!
It turned out this guy was full of confidence in his own strength!
Thinking of this, Nie Keke felt a wave of frustration.
She had thought she was so clever, with everything under control!
"Otherwise? What kind of reaction should I have?"
Seeing Nie Keke's expression, Tang Tian laughed wryly.
Just as Nie Keke was about to say something, their attention was drawn by movement not far away.
Several miles away, a massive figure suddenly appeared out of thin air.
This was a half-beast, half-human figure ten zhang tall, with Devilish Qi soaring into the sky.
The other party had the face and upper body of a middle-aged man.
But his lower body was that of a Yao Beast.
His upper body was also full of Yao Beast characteristics.
"This is a mutated beast-man, a Giant Demon from the Giant Demon Race?"
"Tang Tian, let's run!"
Looking at this figure, Nie Keke's expression changed slightly.
Frowning, she urged.
"Just a monster at the Yin Yang Realm, Seventh Level, what's there to worry about?"
Tang Tian pouted, saying dismissively.
"Brat, you've angered me. I'll twist your head off."
Roaring to the sky, the Giant Demon erupted with astonishing killing intent.
In an instant, it appeared before the two of them.
"Lend me your sword!"
Before Nie Keke could react, Tang Tian drew the sword from her waist.
One sword!
Just one sword!
The Giant Demon in front of them was decapitated!
It wasn't until the long sword had been sheathed for a long time that Nie Keke finally recovered.
Her gaze towards Tang Tian was filled with horror.
Her peerless face was also full of shock.
This guy, Tang Tian, was a bit too powerful, wasn't he?
A Giant Demon at the Yin Yang Realm, Seventh Level, was instantly killed with one sword?
How strong must he be?
At this point, Nie Keke finally understood why Tang Tian had reacted the way he did before.
It was due to his strength!
This was entirely due to his strength; he had enough confidence in his own power!
Suddenly, Nie Keke also became curious about Tang Tian.
What was this guy's background, exactly?
"Um, you collect the spoils, and let's leave here!"
"Who knows, there might be stronger Giant Demons nearby."
Recovering, Nie Keke reminded him.
"Spoils? What spoils? This trash?"
Tang Tian paused, then asked in confusion.
Then, he looked at the Giant Demon's corpse with disdain.
Yes!
Disdain!
Tang Tian didn't even look at some Saint-Grade resources with a proper eye.
Let alone the corpse of a mere Yin Yang Realm, Seventh Level Giant Demon?
One could only say that this guy had too many good things on hand.
Nie Keke opened her mouth, not knowing what to say.
For a moment, she didn't know whether to say Tang Tian was incredibly rich or that he was a spendthrift.
The corpse of a Yin Yang Realm, Seventh Level Giant Demon, called trash?
And with disdain?
Are you kidding me?
Ignoring Tang Tian's strange gaze, Nie Keke decisively put the Giant Demon's corpse into her Storage Ring.
"You didn't want this yourself, so you can't blame me."
Looking at Tang Tian, Nie Keke said with an innocent expression.
"I say, are you that poor?"
"You want even this kind of trash?"
Tang Tian looked at Nie Keke speechlessly and asked, puzzled.
The other party was a princess of the Demon Clan Royal Family, after all, wasn't she?
Was it really necessary to be like this?
"You talk as if you're not part of the Demon Race."
"Don't you know that our Demon Race is lacking in resources?"
"If we had as many resources as those guys, we would have countless peerless experts."
Nie Keke rolled her eyes at Tang Tian and said unhappily.
"It's really unfair. We're both on the Endless Continent, but why do we Demon Race only get to live on the barren side of the plane?"
Then, she complained again.
Nie Keke's words made Tang Tian a little slow to react.
Wait!
The Demon Race's resources were very scarce?
Also, the Endless Continent wasn't just one continent, but a plane?
From Nie Keke's words, the Demon Race was on the other side of the Endless Continent?
"With resources like this, in the outside world, without enough contribution, this princess wouldn't even be able to get them, okay?"
Seeing Tang Tian's strange look, Nie Keke said unhappily again.
"You wouldn't happen to be a Disciple of some reclusive Alchemy Great Master or Artifact Refining Great Master, would you?"
"Why do you seem to have such a rich mindset?"
Nie Keke looked at Tang Tian suspiciously, asking curiously.
"It's alright!"
Tang Tian touched his nose, not intending to answer Nie Keke's questions.
Alchemy Great Master?
Who was she looking down on?
His grandfather was a genuine Pill Emperor.
It's just that he wasn't part of the Demon Race!
Tang Tian's answer made Nie Keke even more certain of her guess.
Her pretty face unconsciously showed a look of sudden realization.
No wonder this guy was so terrifying!
As long as one had abundant resources and enough Prodigy-level talent, it would be hard for their strength not to be powerful, right?
Just as her grandfather said, if she had enough resources.
Then her current strength would definitely not be weaker than that guy in the imperial palace.
Yin Yang Realm, Sixth Level?
If she had enough resources, she could easily surpass that level of strength, okay?
