615 Celestial Gate Mountain Secret Realm
The Dragon Kingdom was vast and boundless.
Ever since the era of class change, secret realms had appeared all over the country. At the same time, the Dragon Kingdom had started a dispute with various fierce monsters.
After the path of the hunters was opened, humans rose, and the eight ultimate kings led the army to chase away most of the monsters. However, some of them hid in secret realms to survive. To hunt down these remaining monsters, the humans gradually unveiled some secret realms.
Secret realms were constructed by strands of nomological power between heaven and earth. They were extremely mysterious, and one could even obtain great opportunities from them.
However, the Dragon Kingdom was vast, and there were still many hidden secret realms that were still unknown to the public as some were hidden between mountains and rivers.
The Celestial Gate Mountain secret realm was the best proof.
“So, you want to enter the secret realm with me to get more Divine Willow Wood?” Lu Benwei asked.
“But can’t you just enter on your own?” Chu Yan frowned, her eyes bright.
“To be honest, it’s not our family’s credit for opening up the Celestial Gate Secret Realm.”
“There are other families, like the Liang family just now?” Lu Benwei raised his eyebrows.
“Yes,” Fifth Master Zhang nodded and said in a deep voice, “Other than our Zhang family, every other family in Rodu has more or less obtained some divine materials and precious treasures from the secret realms.
“At the same time, the government also intervened. Our families couldn’t argue and decided to open the Celestial Gate secret realm together. After entering it, each family will rely on their own abilities. Recently, each family has been crazily recruiting soldiers and buying horses just to enter the Celestial Gate Secret Realm and obtain opportunities.”
Lu Benwei thought for a while and said, “But why did you find me?”
Zhang Chuchen smiled awkwardly and said, “Brother Lu, I have a brother who is in the same school as you. He told us some things about you. We thought about it and felt that you were powerful, so we considered roping you in. I just didn’t expect you to come yourself before I could rope you in.”
“Do you think this is a reason?” Lu Benwei suddenly sneered.
The atmosphere in the living room suddenly froze. Zhang Chuchen and Fifth Master Zhang looked embarrassed, and cold sweat kept dripping from their foreheads.
The corners of Lu Benwei’s mouth curled up as he asked, “Are you the only ones qualified to enter the Celestial Gate secret realm? If so, I can consider working with you.”
The sudden remark made the atmosphere much more relaxed.
Fifth Master Zhang wiped the cold sweat off his forehead. “My young friend Lu is right. The first batch of people to enter the secret realm is indeed only the few of us from Rodu’s families and the official families. As for the benefits…”
“In the secret realm, you can’t fight with me for anything I like.” Before Fifth Master Zhang could speak, Lu Benwei raised his conditions. “I need the Divine Willow Wood too.”
“This…”
At this moment, it was very noisy outside the door. The Zhang family returned triumphantly.
Lu Benwei stood up and left a phone number.
“Your family is back. I won’t disturb you anymore. If you’re willing, we can cooperate.”
After saying that, he pushed the piece of paper with the phone number written on it to Zhang Chuchen and left with Chu Yan.
…
That night.
“Hey, annoying fellow, do you think they agree? Also, do we have to enter the secret realm?”
Chu Yan was lying on a large bed, her well-proportioned calves were raised and swaying non-stop.
“I reckon they will.”
Lu Benwei was sweating profusely, and his face was extremely red.
“They’re just a dilapidated family. If they want to obtain treasures or opportunities in the secret realm, they have to shake people. Think about it. If a random piece of wood can have such power, there must be countless treasures in the secret realm.”
After saying that, Lu Benwei gulped down a mouthful of ice water, then spat out his tongue, and sucked in a breath of cold air.
Chu Yan frowned, her eyes filled with disdain. “Is it that spicy?”
Lu Benwei’s eyes were filled with tears.
At this moment, he was holding a bowl of vermicelli in his hand. It was covered in red chili sauce. Just the smell alone was enough to make people blush and their scalps go numb.
Chu Yan rolled her eyes.
“You still have the cheek to say that? Who gave it to me when they couldn’t finish it?” Lu Benwei said unhappily.
Then, he gulped down a mouthful of ice water. The cold and sweet water poured down his stomach, extinguishing the flames in Lu Benwei’s stomach.
Lu Benwei felt uncomfortable. Every pore on his body was emitting heat.
Chu Yan stuck out her tongue and giggled. “We can’t waste food! You have to finish it.”
Lu Benwei’s face was full of black lines as he continued to eat with his head lowered.
At this moment, Lu Benwei’s phone on the table rang. It was a local number from Rodu.
“Isn’t this the Zhang family? Why aren’t you picking up?” Chu Yan urged.
Lu Benwei made a shushing gesture and picked it up calmly. After silently counting to five, four, three, two, and one, he pressed the answer button.
“Who is it?”
“Brother Lu, it’s me.” Zhang Chuchen’s voice sounded.
“So, it’s Brother Chuchen. Why are you calling so late at night?” Lu Benwei asked politely.
On the other end of the phone, Zhang Chuchen pondered for a while and said, “We’ve thought about that. My father and my uncles want to see you.”
“Now?” Lu Benwei curled his lips and asked.
“Brother Lu, is it inconvenient?” Zhang Chuchen asked nervously.
Lu Benwei looked at Chu Yan.
Chu Yan directly covered her head with the blanket, revealing only a strand of soft hair on her forehead.
“I’m going to sleep. You can go by yourself.” Chu Yan’s voice was muffled.
Lu Benwei heaved a sigh of relief and said, “Sure, are we meeting at Zhang Family Shop?”
…
A moment later, the living room of the Zhang family was brightly lit and filled with smoke.
Lu Benwei and Zhang Chuchen’s uncles were in a deadlock.
“My condition is very simple. After entering the secret realm, you can’t have any ideas about what I like,” Lu Benwei said indifferently, unwilling to give in.
“In your dreams!” an elder of the Zhang family said.
“You brat, you just want to borrow the Zhang family’s quota to enter the secret realm!”
The atmosphere instantly froze.
Lu Benwei did not panic at all. Even if he did not have a spot in the Zhang family, he could still enter the secret realm through a special method. However, this was more aboveboard.
The Zhang family felt that Lu Benwei’s conditions were too harsh.
What if they did not get any benefits and offended the other families of Rodu? It was a thankless effort.
