Chapter 1750: Secret Realm 1750
Yuanyuan looked at Him being all tense. "It’s fine, I’m just holding you up for a bit."
Tan Shaoting knew his wife; seeing her like this, he knew she must have gotten something big out of this.
Everyone came over. Qi Wen and Xiao Ya were beside her. Daughters are still closest to their mother.
Su Yuanyuan saw that everyone at home was doing quite well, and only then did she feel at ease.
By chance she saw Mu Jin; that woman was staring at her, which was fine too. When the time comes, who knows how things will turn out.
Now that everyone was here, they could head to the Phoenix.
Su Yuanyuan knew where the Divine Artifact was, but since it was related to the space, only their family could know.
Mu Tian and the other two could be trusted, but the other seven definitely could not.
Shaking them off would be very difficult; it looked like only Tan Shaoting could run interference for her so she could go fetch it herself.
It was actually quite a simple matter. At least to Su Yuanyuan it was.
It felt like Phoenix Mountain was already packed full of people.
With the whole family gathered, everyone’s hearts grew much lighter.
They were even in the mood to look around, though it was just looking at people; there wasn’t anything else.
"Mom, what’s the point of this?"
"Just taking a look. We can’t come all this way for nothing."
Phoenix Mountain was quite large, ridge after ridge. Their group just walked along like that.
"Mom, there are way too many people behind us."
"It’s fine."
Su Yuanyuan already knew that almost everyone was here for Tan Shaoting; he’d been far too conspicuous along the way.
They just strolled on. The number of people behind them kept increasing. No one was stupid; they could all feel that something was off.
A month later, their group started heading back. The people following them were a bit irritated now; with this many, there had to be some hot-tempered ones.
A female immortal blocked them, looked at Tan Shaoting and asked, "What exactly are you doing? Do you know anything about the Divine Artifact on Phoenix Mountain or not?"
"Divine Artifact? I don’t know anything about that."
"Then why did you rush here like you were crazy?"
"I wanted to reunite with my family as soon as possible." Tan Shaoting felt utterly wronged, alright? If his wife hadn’t told him about what was in these people’s hearts, he wouldn’t have bothered explaining anything to them.
Everyone was dumbfounded. So he really had no idea. They’d foolishly followed him around for nothing.
Some people believed Tan Shaoting. They turned and left; better to search on their own.
Seeing some depart, there were still a few who continued following. The remaining people still refused to believe that Tan Shaoting didn’t know.
The family kept moving forward. This place was about to be trampled flat.
"Shall we rest here for a few days?" Su Yuanyuan asked with a smile.
Qi Wen immediately shook her head. "Mom, what’s there to rest here for? Let’s keep going. Even if someone else gets the Divine Artifact, I won’t be envious."
The others voiced the same opinion. "Since that’s the case, let’s set out. There are still plenty of places we haven’t gone to. On the way here we just rushed straight over, we didn’t really gain anything."
The family swaggered away. The group still trailing them was stunned. What was this? Leaving? They were unwilling. A Divine Artifact—though they didn’t know what kind—it had to exist. No one had found it yet, but the rumor had been around forever; it couldn’t be baseless.
The group headed off in another direction.
The people watching them figured they really were leaving.
Some simply left as well. There was no need to force it; if you have no fate with it, even if you flatten Phoenix Mountain underfoot you still won’t find it.
Some hot-tempered types started casting Spells.
"Are they trying to blow the Phoenix flat?"
"Mm, looks that way."
"Whatever they do, we’re still leaving this place." Mu Tian said with a smile.
The seven didn’t waste words at all; as their group left, they followed along.
"There should be a marshland up ahead. Let’s go have a look."
"There’s an Immortal Plant called Yuhua in the marshes; it’s a Holy Medicine for warming and nourishing the Divine Sense. Let’s go see if we can find some."
Of course no one objected. Everyone knew how fragile Divine Sense was. With something this good, they naturally couldn’t miss out.
Although it was said to be nearby, "nearby" in the Immortal World was not a journey of just one or two days; but they weren’t in a hurry anyway.
Su Yuanyuan had no idea about outsiders, but her own family had already gained a lot, so it was already worth the trip.
At night, the group rested. Mu Tian cheerfully took out some demon beast meat, and Qi Hao contributed the seasonings.
At night he and his wife used one Array Plate; as for the rest, they could pair up freely.
Su Yuanyuan directly set up an Isolation Array and a Defensive Array.
Here she wasn’t worried about anyone overhearing their conversation.
"Be careful."
"I know. I feel like that thing is mine."
Tan Shaoting nodded with a smile. The couple first did their Cultivation, and only in the latter half of the night did Su Yuanyuan enter the space.
For her, this really wasn’t a problem. She quickly found the Divine Artifact, and inwardly she was quite disdainful; it was just a stone. If not for the resonance, she would have completely ignored it.
She didn’t fuse with it here; she would at least wait until they left the secret realm. If the space stopped working, that would be trouble.
In just the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, she appeared at Tan Shaoting’s side again and gave a small nod.
The two of them acted like nothing had happened. The next day they continued on their way.
"Mom, are those people in the back following us or what?"
"There are so many people here. It’s normal for some to be behind us."
Five days later, they reached the edge of the marshland.
It truly stretched as far as the eye could see. "Has anyone ever gone across the marsh and seen the other side? I’m really curious what’s over there," Qi Hao said.
"The odds of us getting across aren’t great. But we still have to try, since we need to find the Yuhua."
"Fellow Daoist knows about Yuhua too?" the Profound Immortal with his nose in the air asked.
Qi Hong nodded. "I saw it in the Immortal Plant Encyclopedia."
"I have some information on Yuhua." As he spoke, he handed over a Jade Scroll.
Qi Hong accepted it with a smile. "Thank you, Fellow Daoist."
After he finished reading, he passed it down; everyone in their group looked it over.
"I know of a Flying Boat; not sure if it’ll do?" Tan Shaoting released his Flying Boat.
The Profound Immortal from before shook his head. "Fellow Daoist’s Flying Boat is too low Level. I have one; I prepared it ahead of time. I came here for the Yuhua as well—my household needs it right now."
"Then we’ll trouble you."
"It’s fine; our odds are better if we go together. Honestly, I’m not confident either. You all just saw it—this is all information I collected."
"Since that’s the case, let’s set off."
The people who had been watching saw them head into the marsh and understood that they really didn’t know anything about Phoenix Mountain’s treasure. They all scattered; they certainly weren’t going to say, ’Don’t go into the marsh, it’s dangerous.’ This was the most dangerous place in the whole secret realm.
There were actually plenty of good places elsewhere; why be so stubborn as to come to the marsh to seek death? Everyone knew about Yuhua, but it was only a legend; no one had truly seen it.
Mu Jin was extremely unwilling to accept this. She knew Phoenix Mountain definitely held something good. She believed there was a Divine Artifact.
Why hadn’t that woman stayed on Phoenix Mountain? And why hadn’t she shown any special movements? That was absolutely impossible. Why did she feel a sense of dread toward that woman?
