Chapter 1284 The Mermaid: Her Beauty Shine Like the Tide (2)

The entrance to the Golden Feather Secret Realm has not yet been opened.

Li Guang mingled among the group of unaffiliated cultivators, her gaze drifting towards Su Muyan in the center of the crowd.

Today he wore a moon-white Taoist robe with cloud patterns embroidered on the cuffs, unique to the Qingxuan Sect. He was listening intently to the cultivator beside him, and occasionally when he nodded, the stray hairs at his temples were lifted by the wind, revealing his smooth forehead.

Many female cultivators around him stared at him with undisguised admiration, but he was completely oblivious.

Li Guang sighed inwardly, "There are really not many ugly people in the cultivation world. It's very friendly to the eyes."

Su Muyan had a gentle and refined appearance, and a quiet demeanor; even his clothes were minimalist. The person beside him, however, was dressed in fine clothes, his attire clearly displaying his wealth. He exuded a vibrant, youthful energy, which made Li Guang steal several glances at him.

It's rare to see such a vibrant cultivator. He even has dimples when he smiles, and standing next to Su Muyan, he wasn't overshadowed at all.

She racked her brains but couldn't figure out who it was.

Fortunately, the female cultivators in the cultivation world are all outspoken. Amidst the whispers of the crowd, she learned that the cultivator standing next to Su Muyan was named Lu Jinghong, his mother was a Nascent Soul cultivator and also the senior sister of Su Muyan's master, Bai Wu; his father was a Deity Transformation cultivator from Yunzhou.

This time, he came from Yunzhou to Lizhou for sightseeing and took the opportunity to travel to the secret realm with the disciples of Qingxuan Sect.

The offspring of a Nascent Soul cultivator are sure to be pampered and protected whenever they go out.

No wonder Lu Jinghong is so dazzling; he clearly hasn't been beaten down by reality. He must have a lot of resources.

As she was lost in thought, someone called her from the side:

"Number 73?"

A slightly hoarse voice sounded from behind.

Li Guang turned around and saw a young man dressed in a gray cloth robe. He was thin and had overly pale skin, but his eyes were exceptionally bright, as if they held stars.

Li Guang remembered him. In the first chaotic battle of the arena, they were in the same group and were the ones who stayed until the end and successfully advanced.

In the end, he made it into the top ten, and even came in third place. He received a reward from the Loose Cultivator Alliance and politely declined an invitation from a Golden Core cultivator to become his disciple.

"What is it?" Li Guang subtly took a half-step away.

The young man grinned, revealing two small tiger teeth, which softened his aloofness somewhat: "I saw you looking over there just now, could it be that you also want to join the Qingxuan Sect?"

"No."

“My name is Shen Ci, I’m a rogue cultivator. What about you? I can’t keep calling you number seventy-three.”

"Qingli," she answered succinctly.

Shen Ci, however, seemed oblivious to her coldness and continued, "I've obtained a map of a secret realm and know a bit about it. If we meet in the secret realm, we can travel together."

"No thanks."

Li Guang had no intention of going on an adventure with others.

"I made a copy of the map, here you go, consider it payment for our cooperation in the arena."

Before Li Guang could refuse, the man had already given her the map.

Since she was given the map, she thanked him generously and took a look at it.

Shen Ci raised the soundproof barrier and explained to her:

"There is a powerful inheritance in the secret realm, but unfortunately no one has opened it. The Mist Bamboo Plain to the east looks safe, but it is actually infested with second-tier Spirit Devouring Ants that feed on the spiritual power of cultivators."

Seeing her looking west, Shen Ci smiled and said:

"The Falling Star Lake in the west is a good place. There are ancient sites of the Merfolk underwater, with countless treasures. However, it is very strange and cannot be entered. Many cultivators fall into an illusion just by listening to the songs of the Merfolk and do not wake up until the secret realm closes."

The glass-like light paused slightly at her fingertips.

The former site of the Merfolk?

Why did he bring this up?

The purpose is too obvious.

Moreover, she had never heard of the ancient site of the Merfolk at Falling Star Lake before, but she had indeed heard of a dream world there.

Ke Liguang was certain that she had never revealed her identity as a mermaid, and that she had lost the mermaid pearl. With her ability to conceal herself, even if a Nascent Soul cultivator personally investigated, they would not be able to tell that she was a demon.

"Falling Star Lake? Shouldn't the Merfolk live in the East China Sea? Lizhou isn't suitable for their lives." She asked casually.
