Shangguan Hong seemed as if he hadn't noticed any of this at all, and still said with a smile:

"It's not a threat, just a suggestion really. Ultimately, it's up to your own choice, isn't it?"

At this point, Shangguan Hong's gaze suddenly shifted directly to Meng You, and he said again: "Meng Fairy, what do you think of my suggestion?"

Meng You was clearly unprepared for Shangguan Hong to throw the question to her at this time. She paused for a moment before shaking her head without hesitation and saying:

"Not particularly. Since I've already agreed with Brother Fatty and the others, I will fulfill the promises I've made."

"Oh, really? That's certainly a pity."

Shangguan Hong suddenly laughed again, but his smile seemed to contain a hint of profound meaning.

Zhu Fei suddenly frowned; he felt that Shangguan Hong's behavior was rather unusual now.

Even if he considered his cultivation superior to everyone present, he shouldn't be so arrogant.

Did he really think that with his strength, he could easily suppress us?

"Well? Shangguan Hong, is everything settled? Are they willing to join our team or not?"

At this moment, a young man with an arrogant expression suddenly walked over from afar.

He glanced at Shangguan Hong, Zhu Fei, and the others, his eyes suddenly filled with impatience.

When Zhu Fei and Fatty Zhuge saw the attire of the newcomer, their eyes suddenly narrowed sharply.

Turned out to be someone from Seven Stars Immortal Sect; no wonder Shangguan Hong had such confidence earlier.

Despite the newcomer's cultivation being merely early-stage Profound Immortal, Shangguan Hong's playful expression instantly disappeared upon seeing him, replaced by a fawning demeanor.

"Brother Mo, it's not that I don't want to help you, but these people simply don't take my words seriously. See how this can be handled...?"

Hearing Shangguan Hong's name for the young man, Zhu Fei and Zhuge Shuaibo's mouths couldn't help but twitch slightly.

What's happened to dignity?

Even if the other side is someone from Seven Stars Immortal Sect, but you're still a Golden Immortal Practitioner. Strictly speaking, even if they didn't want to call you senior, they should call you brother.

But now? The entire storyline is flipped upside down, how can there be any pleasant conversation?

"Are you saying that these people don't want to join the Seven Stars Immortal Sect's team?"

At this time, the young man suddenly turned around, looked unkindly at Zhu Fei and Zhuge Shuaibo, and said coldly:

"A bunch of ungrateful things! How dare you refuse even the demands of our Seven Stars Immortal Sect? I see you don't intend to participate in the Hidden Palace Secret Realm at all, right?"

The young man's extremely arrogant words immediately made Zhuge Shuaibo's face change greatly.

Just as he was about to speak, Zhu Fei, standing beside him, spoke first.

"What's your name? Acting like this, do Brother Ba Dao and Xu Guanglie know?"

"Brother Ba Dao and Xu Guanglie?"

The young man clearly didn't expect Zhu Fei's response, and upon hearing it, he stopped abruptly, then suddenly became enraged.

"Damn! Kid, do you even know what you're saying? My two brothers' names, are not ones you mere ants can call directly! Kneel and apologize immediately! Or else today, don't even think of leaving!"

Zhu Fei equally didn't expect the young man's such strong reaction upon hearing his words.

It seemed Ba Dao and Xu Guanglie held extremely high status in the eyes of such disciples, so high that he dared not mention their names casually.

Yet, Zhu Fei wasn't someone with a good temper either.

If this guy had spoken nicely to him, Zhu Fei might still have considered the face of Ba Dao and Xu Guanglie, and not bothered with him.

But the other party's fault lay in threatening him in such a manner.

In an instant, Zhu Fei's expression turned cold.

Without any visible movements, suddenly in the void appeared a big hand completely formed by Immortal Essence, which fiercely slapped the young man's face!

"Slap!" A loud slap suddenly echoed in the field.

At that moment, the atmosphere among those present became extremely quiet.

Especially Fatty Zhuge and Shangguan Hong, their eyes widened directly.

They couldn't have imagined that Zhu Fei would act so directly, without any warning.

The most crucial part was, Zhu Fei wasn't hitting just anyone, but a disciple of Seven Stars Immortal Sect. If...

In a split second, Fatty Zhuge and Shangguan Hong immediately realized the severity of the situation.

Shangguan Hong was relatively fine; he had already aligned himself before the event. Even if implicated, it likely wouldn't be too severe.

But Fatty Zhuge sensed differently; he clearly understood the trouble Zhu Fei might face after striking a Seven Stars Immortal Sect disciple in such a place and time.

"Bastard! How dare you hit me? You dared to lay a hand on me here? You're asking for it!"

Indeed, after initially freezing, the young man instantly flew into a rage.

His face was cold, and his gaze bore into Zhu Fei as if watching a dead man.

"Just wait; our Seven Stars Immortal Sect will absolutely not let you off! This time, not only can't you enter the Hidden Palace Secret Realm, but you'll also face the wrath of our Seven Stars Immortal Sect!"

After speaking, the young man glanced hatefully at Zhu Fei and the others, ready to leave.

But just at that moment, a powerful and authoritative voice suddenly halted his moving steps.

"What's going on here? Mo Tiantong, what are you up to? The Secret Realm is about to open; why are you still here?"

"Ba... Brother Ba Dao."

Mo Tiantong looked at the tall figure approaching slowly, his words stammering.

The presence of Ba Dao was overwhelmingly grand; just facing it inflicted intense oppression on Mo Tiantong.

Suddenly, Mo Tiantong seemed to have thought of something, and his previously intimidated expression morphed into anger and grievance.

He raised his hand and pointed towards Zhu Fei and Fatty Zhuge, saying:

"Brother Ba Dao, you must uphold justice for me. These people not only rejected our team's invitation but just now this person, arrogantly laid a hand on me."
