Chapter 253: 149. Slaying Ancient Remains Grudges Settled! (8.0K Words - Major Chapter Seeking Subscription)_3


The rain had stopped, and the surrounding scenery was unobstructed...

This Secret Realm was not large, about the size of a human village, and it was now all submerged in water.

The origin of the flood was quite peculiar upstream, as the water seemed to gush out from another Secret Realm, and at the mouth, two corpses floated, soaked for who knows how long.

These two corpses appeared to be stuck at the Secret Realm's exit, or perhaps something from the other end of the Secret Realm was holding them, so only half of their bodies were swaying outside.

One had its legs exposed, the other had its head exposed.

The head had long been soaked to the size of a giant's head, the pale swollen eyeballs floating in the water, tethered by nerve lines, appearing eerily suspended.

Song Yan squinted at the person, he could discern the high level of body strength, indicating that they were at least at the Late stage Of Crimson Palace, possibly even Purple Mansion.

Yet such a powerful person died here at some unknown time...

What caused his tragic death?

Song Yan did not know.

But he understood that anyone who wanted to reach the next Secret Realm had to pass this entrance, encounter these two bizarre corpses, and face the unknown dangers on the opposite side of the Secret Realm.

After a brief contemplation, he began to turn back.

...

The ancient remains had already fallen onto a rooftop, while Pei Xuehan stood far away.

The ancient remains said, "This place is so strange, and you definitely won't make it out alive. You were sent by the sect as cannon fodder, so why not come over and serve me well?

If you serve me comfortably, once I get out, I'll consider taking care of your sect due to your body."

Pei Xuehan cowered and kept standing, not knowing what to say, just kept giggling pitifully.

The ancient remains were inherently lustful, this was evident from how it teased Han Yuling before, and with the fifteen countries under the Fox and Wolf Races' command revering them, it had long expropriated everything here as its own. It decided whom to kill, whom to eat, and if anyone dared to defy, it would mean betrayal.

At this moment, the ancient remains impatiently spread its legs wide, revealing sharp fur-covered wolf legs, stuck its hand into its groin, frowned, and said in irritation, "Come over and relieve me."

Pei Xuehan was like a fool, continuing to giggle without any response ability.

Just then, a gust of wind swept in from afar, and Song Yan's figure appeared.

The ancient remains' expression turned cold, and smacked the rooftop, "Why are you back at this time? Can't you see what I'm doing?!"

Song Yan said, "Ancient master, the Secret Realm has only the three of us left, but the entrance to the next Secret Realm seems peculiar, I suggest we wait a while, observe and then act."

The ancient remains unexpectedly calmed down, asked about the situation, and then, in a natural tone, said, "Go and check what those two corpses are stuck with, report back to me."

Song Yan cast his gaze toward Pei Xuehan.

Pei Xuehan shuddered, her breathing halted.

Song Yan frowned and said, "Let her go. She was chosen by the superior, wasn't she meant for this?"

Pei Xuehan was already scared out of her mind.

She... she felt quite righteous when she left the sect, even patted her chest saying, "You all don't dare go, then I'll go," but now she regretted it, her sense of righteousness and courage had long vanished, leaving only intense fear.

Both of these old monsters, one wanted her to serve, the other wanted her to die.

Just then, the ancient remains turned its head, its blood-red copper bell-like giant eyes stared at Song Yan, articulating slowly, "Are you defying my orders?"

Song Yan said, "The corpse's power is really not weak, most likely also at the Purple Mansion Realm, which suggests there might be some unknown monster on the other side. Ancient master, it's really not wise to move rashly."

Anyone else, any person who has fought their way to the Purple Mansion Realm, would understand... this is the time to stop.

But each person has different personalities and growth environments.

To a Wolf Demon, who has long been used to being domineering, smooth sailing, and even invincible, the lives and deaths of all creatures within the fifteen countries of the Fox and Wolf Races, as well as other vassal states, were within its whim.

At this moment, upon hearing Song Yan's suggestion, it didn't even utter a word, just looked at him in astonishment, seeming incredulous that he dared to retort with so many words.

In those giant eyes, there was mockery, amusement, peculiarities, and a sense of lofty overlook.

The brief silence was broken, the ancient remains faintly asked, "Have you gone crazy?"

The air instantly turned quiet and tense.

Until Song Yan slightly bowed, and said, "Alright, I'll go take a look."

The ancient remains laughed heartily, then looked at Pei Xuehan and said, "Did you see? In this place, my words are like an imperial decree of the Wolf Race, like divine commands! Even a human Purple Mansion must listen obediently. Whatever I want him to do, he must do."

Song Yan turned and flew towards the Secret Realm entrance.

Saying goes, endure and the calm persists...

Take a step back...

Take a step back, the more I think, the angrier I get.

He didn't want to go to the next Secret Realm so early, seeing the ancient remains was an unavoidable matter, originally pretending to be peaceful would have been fine, endure a bit and endure a bit.

But at this moment, this Wolf Demon was completely set on using him as cannon fodder, and the danger of this Soul Threshold of the Ruler was far beyond his imagination.

His mind rapidly weighed: on one side is being consumed as cannon fodder and then dying tragically, on the other is lurking in the first Secret Realm, waiting for the opportunity to act.

Which seems better, doesn't it?

Song Yan slightly squinted his eyes, then suddenly halted, began to turn back.

...

Pei Xuehan's Sword Robe had already been torn open, exposing large patches of snow-white flesh, the ancient remains was about to act when it saw the returning human Purple Mansion, slightly tilted its head, and said coldly, "I remember."
