Some people who were left outside the secret realm were searching for its entrance, stunned to see the cultivators who entered the realm suddenly appear before them.
"How did you come out so soon?" asked a disciple of the Mofeng Sect as he approached Xu Qi. Although Xu Qi had joined the Sky Heart Sect, she was, after all, formerly a disciple of the Mofeng Sect.
Xu Qi shook her head in confusion, "I don't know either, I was wondering about that myself."
Hu Qi, Elder Mie Yu, and Yun Mo quickly stepped forward to greet Song Yan Ning and Qin Yushen as they approached.
"Ningning, do you know what's going on with this secret realm?" asked Elder Mie Yu.
"Let's talk back at the Sky Heart Sect," Song Yan Ning replied. Her gain this time was the greatest; she had found her brothers, and she was already very satisfied.
"Song Sect Master, please wait!" a cultivator who had earlier given Song Yan Ning a Storage Bag stepped in front of her group, blocking their path.
"Is there something you need, Sect Leader He?" Song Yan Ning raised an eyebrow at him.
"Sect Leader Song, you should know I was only in the secret realm for a short time, without enough time to gather cultivation resources, not even a single Spirit Grass," Sect Leader He said calmly.
"How does that concern me?" Song Yan Ning replied with a light smile.
"Previously I gave you many Spirit Stones and materials, shouldn't you return them to me?" Sect Leader He directly stated his purpose.
Song Yan Ning gave a mocking laugh, "Sect Leader He, don't forget, you gave me those items to enter the secret realm, and since you have entered, our transaction is completed. How long you stayed and what you got has nothing to do with me."
Sect Leader He gave a cold laugh, "Song Sect Master, if you don't return the items to me today, don't blame me for being rude." He didn't believe other people wouldn't want to get back their items.
Qin Yushen stepped forward, raising his hand and swinging out a palm.
Sect Leader He was no match for Qin Yushen and was sent flying with one blow.
Those who were about to step forward with Sect Leader He to demand their items hastily stopped. They looked at Qin Yushen warily, remembering that he and Song Yan Ning were not afraid even of the Mofeng Sect and Lingyun Divine Sect.
"Who else wants their items back?" Qin Yushen's cold gaze swept over the crowd.
The crowd exchanged glances and took a few steps back.
The Great Elder of the Mofeng Sect and the Seventh Elder of the Lingyun Divine Sect stepped forward. "Song Sect Master, Vice Sect Master Qin, aren't you being unreasonable? After taking so many cultivation resources from everyone, giving a little bit back wouldn't hurt, would it?"
Song Yan Ning let out a cold laugh. "Don't think I don't know what you're up to, you're trying to stir them up against us."
The Great Elder of the Mofeng Sect and the Seventh Elder of the Lingyun Divine Sect grimaced and huffed, "We're just seeking justice, not asking for items ourselves." They hadn't expected Song Yan Ning to directly expose their intentions.
"Elder Li and Elder Zhang are right; you should return the items to us."
"That's right, we were only in there for such a short time, we didn't get any benefits."
"Song Sect Master, please return our items." With the support of the Mofeng Sect and Lingyun Divine Sect, the crowd began speaking out.
Song Yan Ning swept her gaze over the crowd, "Are you sure you want them?"
"It's our own items, why shouldn't we want them?"
Song Yan Ning gave a faint smile and waved her hand, sending dozens of Storage Bags flying out, "I hope you won't regret this."
