Xie Mingyu was a little stunned. “What made you change your mind?”
“At that time, fellow Daoist Gu transmitted a message to me, telling me not to act rashly. He had his own way to escape and asked me to help take care of his family and sect.”
Although Xie Mingyu did not want to get involved in this mess, he had said it first. Moreover, it was reasonable, so he should help.
“I’m afraid it won’t be easy to help.”
If that group of people could not find Gu Xi, they would definitely start with his family and sect.
Xie Mingyu was somewhat worried, but he could only take one step at a time.
At this moment, Mei Qianmeng, Gu Xi, and the others entered the Blood Moon. The space became extremely distorted. When the sky and earth were spinning, and when their vision recovered, they had already arrived at an empty place.
Gu Xi suppressed the discomfort in her heart and looked at the surrounding environment. It was very barren, without any vegetation. Occasionally, there would be a few strangely shaped withered branches, which looked distorted and deformed.
From time to time, a black shadow would pass by. When she looked closely, she saw that it was a black crow. It landed on the branch and made strange noises.
For example, there was a crow that stopped on a tree not far away. It looked at them quietly, and a strange light would occasionally flash through its eyes.
There were no other creatures here, only groups of crows circling around. For some reason, Gu Xi had an uneasy premonition.
Mei Qianmeng lazily said, “I’ve finally gotten rid of those annoying and noisy cultivators.”
Her gaze fell on Gu Xi, flickering with a dim light. At the same time, the other people from the Demon Region also looked at Gu Xi.
“Welcome to the Demon Region.”
Gu Xi was extremely astonished. He subconsciously blurted out, “This is the Demon Region?!”
One had to know that the Demon Region was tens of millions of miles away from the Capital. An ordinary teleportation array was simply unable to do so.
Crossing such a long distance, it was at least a heaven-grade teleportation array. Moreover, carving required a great deal of effort and materials, and there was a limit to the number of people that could be transported.
Gu Xi did not expect the Blood Moon to have such a magical power that could teleport them over in an instant. No wonder Mei Qianmeng and the others were so confident in barging into the Secret Realm.
It turned out that they were no longer afraid. Even if they could not defeat the major sects, they could still run away immediately. It was extremely convenient.
This time, the Demon Region had really put in a lot of effort. What exactly did they want to obtain in the Secret Realm? Or rather, what were they plotting?
Gu Xi thought of the Dragon Ball.
Unexpectedly, the next second, Mei Qianmeng opened her mouth and said, “Young Master Gu, Our Demon region has saved your life. You’ve also publicly announced that you want to join our Demon Region. I wonder if you can take out that half of the Dragon Ball.”
That half of the Dragon Ball had long been refined by Little Jin. How could she still find it?
Seeing that Gu Xi was hesitating for a moment, Mei Qianmeng’s expression did not change as she said, “Why is Young Master Gu not willing? Could it be that what you said earlier was just a joke?”
Although her expression did not change, her tone had already become a bit more threatening.
He was afraid that if he did not take out the Dragon Ball, Mei Qianmeng would really turn hostile.
“Of course I’m willing.”
Gu Xi steadied Mei Qianmeng and hurriedly sent a voice transmission to Little Jin in the pet space, asking it to quickly forge half a Dragon Ball.
Little Jin had the bloodline of a true dragon to begin with, and he had obtained the true inheritance of the Long Tian. Adding on the fact that he had absorbed half a Dragon Ball, the forgery was too simple.
Very quickly, Gu Xi took out half a shining ball from the space. The faint shadow of a true dragon could be seen circling around and placing it in Mei Qianmeng’s hand.
“Please take a look, Holy Maiden.”
She did not expect Gu Xi to take it out so readily. Mei Qianmeng looked at him suspiciously and took out the half ball that she had snatched back then.
The two balls of light seemed to have been attracted by something. They automatically floated in the air and then slowly approached.
Seeing this, the others could not help but look delighted. “It really is the Dragon Ball.”
“Eh, that’s strange. Why can’t these two balls fuse together?”
The two balls were already stuck together, but there seemed to be some resistance in the middle. No matter how hard they tried, they could not completely fuse together and become a complete Dragon Ball.
Seeing this, Gu Xi quickly explained, “Perhaps they have been separated for too long, so the fusion will take some time.”
These words did not sound wrong.
Mei Qianmeng sensed that the aura of the Dragon Ball that he handed over was almost the same as the one in her hand. In addition, the two balls were indeed attracted to each other, which dispelled the doubt in her heart.
“Young Master Gu, you are now the Master of the Primal Chaos Secret Realm, and also a member of our Demon Region. I wonder if you can let us enter the Primal Chaos Secret Realm.”
Mei Qianmeng smiled like a flower, but her tone was one that could not be ignored. Her gaze was fixed on Gu Xi, and Gu Xi knew that she was testing him.
Indeed, people were greedy. They wanted the Dragon Ball, and now they wanted other things.
Moreover, Mei Qianmeng was very careful. Even at this stage, she was still worried that Gu Xi had really submitted to the Demonic Region.
“Yes, yes, but–” Gu Xi deliberately showed a hesitant and worried expression.
Such a reaction was within Mei Qianmeng’s expectations. If he really agreed to it, then she would have to wonder if there was a trap waiting for them in the Secret Realm.
After all, Gu Xi was now the Master of the Primal Chaos Secret Realm. The current situation was unclear, and no one knew how much control he had over the Secret Realm. If he could control the wind and rain in the Secret Realm, then it would be his territory, and everything could be controlled by him.
“Young Master Gu, don’t worry. Everything I said earlier is true. We are not those hypocrites of the Righteous Path who covet your Primal Chaos Secret Realm.”
Mei Qianmeng coiled around Gu Xi like a water snake. She was like a soft and boneless existence.
As long as one lowered their head, they would be able to see the undulating scenery. Coupled with her snow-white skin, her pair of breasts kept swaying back and forth in front of him. It was enough to make one’s blood boil.
