She hadn't expected Chu Zhiyuan to be so thoughtful.
She was just worrying about how to collect the exotic fruit, as her grandfather and the others couldn't do it.
The Heir had cleared out a batch of those little cats, but there were definitely more inside.
It would be difficult for her grandfather and the others to last long inside, even knowing that they were afraid of the juice of this exotic fruit, they couldn't obtain the juice.
It would be great if the Heir could take the initiative to help collect it, it would be a great help.
"Is the Heir going back to Yujing now?"
"Yes, I have some things to deal with first," Chu Zhiyuan nodded: "It has already been planned, and cannot be delayed."
"The Heir's affairs are important." Qu Ying nodded quickly.
She really wanted Chu Zhiyuan to go and pick the exotic fruit now, but she also knew that this was just helping, and Chu Zhiyuan's affairs should take precedence.
Chu Zhiyuan pondered.
Qu Ying looked at him curiously.
Chu Zhiyuan met her bright eyes and pondered: "Regarding the secret realm, I have never wanted to say too much, but Qu姑娘, you are so sincere, if I hide it and don't say it, I will feel uneasy."
Qu Ying blinked her bright eyes: "The Heir can speak frankly."
Chu Zhiyuan said: "The proper path for the Flying Heaven Sect is still in the Town Guard Department, not this secret realm."
Qu Ying frowned slightly, somewhat puzzled.
Chu Zhiyuan said: "Although Grandmasters and Xiantian disciples can enter this secret realm, it is best to only allow Grand Greatmasters to enter, otherwise too many experts will be lost."
Qu Ying nodded.
Chu Zhiyuan said: "When entering the secret realm, it is best to join forces with the imperial court's Grand Greatmasters, do not enter it privately."
Qu Ying nodded: "Entering it privately will displease the Emperor, right?"
"Not so," Chu Zhiyuan shook his head: "It's that the imperial court's Grand Greatmasters are more experienced—the four great paradises and the four great secret realms, there are always some experiences that outsiders don't know."
Qu Ying nodded solemnly.
Chu Zhiyuan said: "Those experiences are all bought with lives, unless your Flying Heaven Sect is not afraid of sacrifice, and dares to sacrifice the lives of disciples to exchange for experience."
Qu Ying's expression darkened slightly.
Chu Zhiyuan sighed: "To be honest, Sect Leader Lu, well, as the sect leader of one of the four great sects, his vision is far from enough."
Qu Ying shook her head gently: "The sect leader is still very wise."
Chu Zhiyuan said: "If he were wise, he wouldn't be so greedy, leading the Flying Heaven Sect into the abyss step by step without realizing it. Exploring the secret realm privately, how many more people will the Flying Heaven Sect have to lose?"
Qu Ying was silent.
Many experts had indeed died in the secret realm, and it was heartbreaking to think about it.
Chu Zhiyuan snorted: "The Flying Heaven Sect originally didn't have to lose these experts."
Qu Ying quickly shook her head: "Although the decision was made by the sect leader, it was also discussed by the elders and senior brothers, so you can't blame the sect leader alone."
"What is a sect leader? It is to see clearly at critical moments, not to follow the crowd and have no resolve," Chu Zhiyuan said.
Qu Ying quickly said: "The sect leader is also doing it for the good of the Flying Heaven Sect."
Chu Zhiyuan said: "A good intention, but blinded by greed, thinking that only he is smart, and the Emperor and the imperial court are fools! Little does he know that the most foolish one is him!"
Chu Zhiyuan snorted and said: "If you still don't wake up, what will your Flying Heaven Sect become? It can be seen at a glance."
Before Qu Ying could speak, he waved his hand: "Forget it, that's all I'll say, whether you listen or not is up to him, up to your Flying Heaven Sect."
"…Thank you, Heir."
Qu Ying nodded lightly.
Chu Zhiyuan said: "These harsh words will definitely be thought by Sect Leader Lu to mean that I don't want the Flying Heaven Sect to take too many advantages."
"The sect leader is very wise," Qu Ying said.
"These are just my personal opinions, and they may not be correct. After all, everyone's position is different, and the angle of looking at problems is different," Chu Zhiyuan said: "I will leave first, and come back in a couple of days."
"I'll see the Heir off," Qu Ying said quickly.
As she saw Chu Zhiyuan off the mountain, she kept thinking about Chu Zhiyuan's words.
She didn't completely believe these words.
After all, he was the Heir, and would not truly stand on the side of the Flying Heaven Sect.
These words didn't have to be fully listened to, but there was some truth to them.
The biggest problem was experience.
The lack of experience in the secret realm led to the death or injury of senior brothers and uncles in the sect.
Riches are found in danger, they held this idea, thinking that their deaths were worth it.
But now thinking about it, what would have happened if they had reported it to the imperial court from the beginning?
Would the imperial court have rewarded them?
If they had requested the imperial court to allow the Grand Greatmasters in the sect to enter the secret realm to explore, would the imperial court have agreed?
Familiar faces appeared in her mind, all fellow disciples who had died in the secret realm.
For a moment, her emotions were complex and inexplicable.
Chu Zhiyuan rode the Heavenly Dragon Divine Steed and returned to the Purple Sun Manor in less than half a day.
The manor was very lively.
Outside the manor were the crowds referring to the White Bone Pagoda, and inside the manor were Xiao Ruoling and the others.
Xiao Ruoling, Shen Hanyue, and Xu Yingying, as well as the four Grand Greatmasters protecting them, were in the shadows.
When they saw Chu Zhiyuan return, they surrounded him, instantly attracted by the two spirit cats on his shoulders.
Delicate hands reached out to stroke them.
The two spirit cats flashed, avoiding the jade hands, and floated into the air.
Xu Yingying asked curiously: "Where did these come from? Such cute little fellows!"
Chu Zhiyuan said: "From the secret realm of the Flying Heaven Sect, they are demon beasts, be careful."
As he spoke, he entered the house and washed up with the service of the four maids of Mo Qi.
After he washed up, they were already playing with the two spirit cats.
Xu Yingying and Shen Hanyue each entangled with a spirit cat, chasing after them.
Graceful figures flashed non-stop, pushing their movement techniques to the extreme.
However, their speed, which even Grand Greatmasters could not match, made the two women quite embarrassed, but they enjoyed it.
Xiao Ruoling sat in the small pavilion watching the excitement.
A snow-white silk dress set off her jade-like skin, making her look like a white jade fairy.
Chu Zhiyuan came to her side and sat down, smiling: "They can't catch up."
The two spirit cats had keen intuition and could sense kindness and malice.
They could sense the kindness of the two women, so they didn't hurt anyone, just playing with them.
Chu Zhiyuan shook his head.
He really didn't know who was playing who.
"What amazing speed," Xiao Ruoling exclaimed: "The demon beasts in that secret realm must be very powerful, right?"
Chu Zhiyuan nodded: "More dangerous than the secret realm of the Moon Invitation Palace."
"Then it's only suitable for Grand Greatmasters to enter," Xiao Ruoling nodded gently: "The Flying Heaven Sect must be eager to go in and die, right?"
"Many experts have died."
"It's inevitable," Xiao Ruoling nodded gently: "People die for wealth, and birds die for food, they can't resist the temptation."
Chu Zhiyuan shook his head: "I advised them once, but I guess it's useless. Everyone has the same habits, working together to rush to their deaths."
Xiao Ruoling handed over a cup of tea: "This is the path they chose themselves, they can't blame others."
"How is it here?"
"There's still one piece left that hasn't been leaked."
Chu Zhiyuan snorted: "The Heavenly Heart Sect is quite powerful, they haven't leaked it out."
"I have already arranged it," Xiao Ruoling said: "The news will spread tomorrow."
The placement of the three jade pendants was all selective, all being sects that Chu Zhiyuan most wanted to destroy.
One was the Jade Cauldron Sect, one was the Nostalgia Sect, and one was the Heavenly Heart Sect.
At the same time, he also wanted to see if Li Hongzhao's words were true or false, whether the location of the Jade Cauldron Sect's main altar was correct.
Only the Heavenly Heart Sect had kept the jade pendant, and the news hadn't leaked out.
However, if they didn't leak it, he would help them leak it, he was willing to help with some things. Tomorrow, the Yujing City tavern would be buzzing with the news.
