The two chances of the Gale Control Sky Talisman had been used up long ago. He could only stack up speed-boosting talisman inscriptions to escape faster.

At the same time, Han Ye threw out a large number of prepared talismans, including the Thunder-sealing Sky-breaking Talisman with restraining effects, plus three Thunder Beads.

The entire space was closed off by electrical arcs and thunder, trapping Lu Xuanxuan inside. At the same time, the three Thunder Beads exploded, releasing an amazing amount of power.

Lu Xuanxuan was instantly blown into a bloody mess.

However, a strange thing happened: her blood flowed and formed anew, her face regenerating to its original blank expression.

“Boom!”

The next second, Lu Xuanxuan broke the Thunder-sealing Sky-breaking Talisman with a palm, took a step forward, and the ground beneath her crumbled and started to cave in.

Her large hand scattered all the electricity released by the Thunder Beads.

From the midair looking down, a giant palm print over ten meters long had formed at the position of the Thunder-sealing Sky-breaking Talisman, deeply indented into the ground. It was as if a giant’s hand had slammed onto the ground, leaving a trace.

Nevertheless, Han Ye had seized a chance to escape, taking Chu Xianyu away from the place.

Han Ye, holding Chu Xianyu’s slender waist and keeping her in his arms, kept pouring his magic power into the talismans on his body, quickly flying off into the distance. Chu Xianyu’s body was extremely soft, and she emitted a faint, charming fragrance.

With the assistance of several Earth-grade Gale Talismans, Han Ye and Chu Xianyu soon arrived at the foot of a desolate mountain and landed back on the ground.

“It’s really strange, how did Lu Xuanxuan suddenly turn into this? What happened to her?” Chu Xianyu, safe now, showed not a trace of happiness but a solemn expression instead.

“She is not Lu Xuanxuan. This senior sister’s body has been controlled by the residual soul of Demi-Immortal Qian Han, and this shred of soul, after a thousand years, has become manic and lost its reason.” Han Ye explained.

Chu Xianyu nodded, looking at Han Ye curiously, “How did you know?”

“I was also hunted down by her previously and I accidentally saw the place where Demi-Immortal Qian Han passed away.”

Han Ye cleverly concealed the incidents regarding Demi-Immortal Essence Blood and the Gilded Emperor, and moved the conversation along.

Han Ye changed the topic: “With her strength, if she wants to kill us, we can’t escape even if I have numerous talismans. Unless we leave the Golden Cicada Secret Realm, it is always dangerous. I think the fortune we have found is almost sufficient by now, so why don’t we leave this place first?”

He originally intended to seize the Demi-sage’s Light from Lu Xuanxuan. However, the battle between the Seven Evildoers and Chu Xianyu disrupted his plans – Lu Xuanxuan had become even stronger than before. Her cultivation, which had been at the Golden Core stage, abruptly soared to the Nascent Soul stage, enough to instantaneously kill cultivators of the Nascent Soul stage.

It had become very dangerous to stay in the Golden Cicada Secret Realm.

They had already scoured a significant amount of treasures. It would be wise to leave now.

Han Ye was never greedy, nor was he the adventurous type. He knew well the importance of stopping when the going got good.

Observing Han Ye with a somewhat sympathetic gaze, Chu Xianyu asked, “You want to leave the Golden Cicada Secret Realm?”

“It’s too late.”

“What?” Han Ye asked, puzzled.

Chu Xianyu didn’t rush to explain, but simply stared at Han Ye.

“Are you going to let go of me?”

Only then did Han Ye realize he was still holding Chu Xianyu in his arms. He had been thinking about leaving the Secret Realm and had entirely forgotten that they had landed back on the ground.

Once he released Chu Xianyu, Han Ye showed no signs of embarrassment. He said, “We must leave the Golden Cicada Secret Realm at once. It’s far too dangerous now. What did you mean when you said ‘it’s too late’?”

Noticing something off, Han Ye’s expression filled with suspicion. He queried further, “How did those seven Demon Path Evildoers corner you into the Stone Forest?”

Chu Xianyu took a Bronze Ghost Mask out of her Storage Ring and put it on. Lowering her gaze, she said softly, “Do you know about the Bai Tian Demon Sect?”

“Bai Tian Demon Sect? Are you saying the remnants of the Demon Cult have already infiltrated the Secret Realm?” asked Han Ye, slightly confused.

“Don’t you know?” Chu Xianyu seemed surprised, “Haven’t you visited the Undersea Dragon Cave in the center of the Golden Cicada Secret Realm at all since you entered it?”

Han Ye shook his head, “I’ve been in closed-door cultivation.”

Everyone who came to the Golden Cicada Secret Realm would scramble to find treasures around the realm, but he had spent much of his time cultivating.

Chu Xianyu was left speechless. She explained, “The Golden Cicada Secret Realm is opened for a month, and you generally can’t leave before the time is up. However, if you make arrangements with your sect elders, they can ask the people in charge of the Immortal Gate to open the secret realm ahead of time. Soon after we entered the secret realm, as I was on my way to join the other disciples, we came under numerous attacks from the Demon Path.”

“How did the Demon Path enter if the opening of the Secret Realm is controlled by the Immortal Gate?” Han Ye asked, perplexed.

“I don’t know. They must have used a special method. There is a spy from the Demon Cult inside the Secret Realm, who arranged a teleportation array, allowing the Demon Cult to infiltrate.”

“So it’s her!”

It suddenly dawned on Han Ye, and he saw Ning Yujing’s smiling face in his mind’s eye.

“Who?”

Chu Xianyu questioned.

“Junior Sister Ning, a disciple of Pure Yang Peak, this year’s top Outer Sect disciple. I found her a bit odd when we came together.”

For some reason, Chu Xianyu did not appear to be solemn or doubtful upon hearing the news.. Instead, she seemed somewhat relieved and sneered, “I knew there was something off about her!”
