Chapter 182 What is your relationship with Huai’an! ?

The entrance to the Dragon Qi Secret Realm is located at the Great Min Immortal Martial Academy and is personally guarded by the Academy's Dean.

After Fu Huaian rose from his soft embrace, he placed Yao Qi and Xu Qingyao into his secret realm pearl, and then he and Zhou Yunxi headed to the Immortal Martial Academy.

Indeed, a soft embrace can lead to delays.

When Fu Huaian arrived at the Immortal Martial Academy, the hall where the Dragon Qi Secret Realm entrance was located was already packed with a large crowd.

Besides the Geniuses from various forces who needed to enter the Dragon Qi Secret Realm, there were also Elders from their respective Sects.

Fu Huaian saw the charming and beautiful Nangong Jingyao, as well as Lü Yingying, who was casting alluring glances at him.

He didn't go over to chat; with so many eyes around, being overly intimate wouldn't be appropriate.

He followed Zhou Yunxi to where Zhou Yu was, and beside him, besides Cao Chun, stood a middle-aged Cultivator in green robes.

Fu Huaian glanced at him, unable to discern anything, his appearance looked amiable and refined, like a well-read scholar.

After Fu Huaian appeared, Lu Yuan had been observing him, intentionally and unintentionally.

As the Dean of the Immortal Martial Academy, his status was similar to Lü Yingying of the Ziyang Sect, holding a position akin to a “Grand Elder” who was second only to one person in terms of power.

After several days of competitions, Fu Huaian had stirred up a storm in the city, and all his information, whether major or minor, had already reached Lu Yuan's hands.

Now, seeing him in person, Lu Yuan sighed even more deeply.

He was indeed an Immortal Rank Genius with unparalleled talent.

Zhou Yunxi came before Zhou Yu and respectfully bowed:

"Greetings, Imperial Father."

Fu Huaian accompanied her with a slight bow.

Zhou Yu glanced at the two people in front of him, a smile spreading across his face.

As expected of my most outstanding daughter, she truly didn't disappoint me and successfully captivated Fu Huaian!

Zhou Yunxi's face flushed slightly under Zhou Yu's gaze.

Fu Huaian also felt awkward, inexplicably feeling that he couldn't interact with Zhou Yu like a buddy anymore…

Zhou Yu was in a joyful mood, pointing to Lu Yuan beside him, and smilingly introduced him to Fu Huaian:

"Mr. Fu, this is the Dean of the Immortal Martial Academy."

Since Fu Huaian had already agreed to become a Mr. of the Immortal Martial Academy, Lu Yuan was his superior, so his attitude naturally had to be more cordial.

A gentle smile appeared on his handsome face, and he bowed meticulously to Lu Yuan:

"Greetings, Dean Lu."

Lu Yuan would not put on airs in front of Fu Huaian; he took two steps forward, gently lifted Fu Huaian's hands, and smiled:

"The Immortal Martial Academy is honored to have Mr. Fu join us."

Fu Huaian, being so young and merely a nominal Mr., felt a little embarrassed by such praise.

"Dean, you overstate it."

Lu Yuan's smile broadened; the more he looked at Fu Huaian, the more satisfied he became, thinking that if there was even a slight chance, he would definitely take this Dragon and Phoenix as his personal Disciple.

What a pity, what a pity.

Fu Huaian had arrived late to begin with, and after only a few polite exchanges with Lu Yuan, it was time to open the Dragon Qi Secret Realm.

Zhou Yunxi had already informed Fu Huaian of the general information about the Dragon Qi Secret Realm while they were in bed.

The Dragon Qi Secret Realm is a small space similar to Fu Huaian's secret realm pearl, the difference being that the Spiritual Qi inside is extremely dense, and it has been nourished by the Dragon Veins of the Da Min Dynasty for thousands of years.

Therefore, the Spiritual Qi in the Dragon Qi Secret Realm is mixed with rich Dragon Qi, and Cultivating there for one day can be equivalent to a hundred days, with extraordinary results.

However, the Spiritual Qi inside is not inexhaustible, and the nourishment of Dragon Qi also takes time; if one Cultivates without restraint, the Secret Realm will inevitably face the result of Spiritual Qi depletion in the long run.

Therefore, every time Great Min uses the Dragon Qi Secret Realm, they have to calculate carefully: when to open it, how long to open it, and how many people can enter—all these aspects are meticulously planned.

Today, when the Dragon Qi Secret Realm was opened, a total of one hundred and twenty Cultivators entered; besides the one hundred who qualified through the competition, there were also twenty from the Great Min Dynasty.

Zhou Yunxi was among them.

Inside the main hall, on the central high platform, Lu Yuan held the imperial seal given by Zhou Yu and gently embedded it into a gigantic jade-white gate; the jade gate slowly opened to both sides, and white light surged within the gate, obscuring the view of what was inside.

The imperial seal was an Immortal Rank Spirit Stone refined into an Immortal Artifact, serving both as an Immortal Artifact and a key.

If one didn't use the key to open the gate, one could also forcibly break it, but the difficulty was immense, and doing such a thing in the Immortal Martial Academy would mean death even for an Ascension Realm Cultivator!

Lu Yuan stepped back a few paces, looked at the one hundred and twenty people waiting to enter, and smiled:

"The gate is open, I wish you all a successful breakthrough."

The Dragon Qi Secret Realm has long been renowned, and most of the Cultivators waiting to enter were filled with joy!

Especially those Crossing Tribulation Realm Cultivators who ranked among the top sixty in the competition—wasn't this what they were pursuing?

Fu Huaian received special treatment, standing at the forefront, and was arranged to enter first.

The Cultivators had no objections; after all, his strength was undeniable.

Fu Huaian walked slowly forward, followed by Zhou Yunxi; he arrived at the gate, nodded and smiled lightly at Lu Yuan, and then gently stepped through.

Boom—

The jade-white giant gate vibrated!

Fu Huaian was repelled!

Lu Yuan and Zhou Yu instantly furrowed their brows, and the rest of the crowd also looked towards the scene.

Zhou Yunxi was stunned for a moment, then remembered something, leaned into Fu Huaian's ear, and whispered:

"The Secret Realm Palace, Secret Realms of the same rank cannot accommodate each other."

Lu Yuan, standing nearby, heard everything clearly and was slightly astonished.

A personal small Secret Realm? This was a supreme treasure!

Fu Huaian's sword-like brows furrowed; while the resources in the secret realm pearl were secondary, his two wives were still inside, and he truly didn't feel at ease entrusting it to just anyone.

He glanced at Lu Yuan, immediately dismissing him as an option.

"Dean Lu, please wait a moment."

He flew directly to Lü Yingying, handed her the secret realm pearl, and sent a voice transmission:

"Yingying, please keep this safe for me."

Lü Yingying's expression didn't change as she tucked it into her sleeve, nodding obediently.

Most of the surrounding Elders, being well-informed, guessed the reason for the sudden incident, but what they couldn't understand was why Fu Huaian was willing to entrust such a treasure to Lü Elder.

When did their relationship become so intimate?

Besides surprise, Nangong Jingyao's heart was filled with intense jealousy.

He actually chose Lü Yingying instead of entrusting it to me!

He clearly doesn't care about me!

Nangong Jingyao bit her red lips, glaring directly at Fu Huaian, her expression slightly aggrieved.

Fu Huaian naturally sensed her gaze and immediately felt as if he had thorns in his back.

But at this moment, comparing the two, Lü Yingying, with whom he had a deeper connection, was certainly more trustworthy.

He didn't even dare to look at Nangong Jingyao, flying back to the gate, sighing inwardly.

It seems that after coming out of the Dragon Qi Secret Realm, asking Nangong Jingyao for Alchemy will require a lot of coaxing…

Fu Huaian stepped through the jade gate again, and this time, without any incident, he and Zhou Yunxi successfully entered the Dragon Qi Secret Realm.

The Geniuses behind them followed one by one, and a quarter of an hour later, all personnel had entered, and the jade-white giant gate emitted white light, obscuring the view of its interior.

Lu Yuan took out the imperial seal, and the giant gate closed, to reopen a month later.

Seeing this, the Elders from various forces didn't linger either; they sought out familiar Fellow Daoists to exchange pleasantries and departed together.

Nangong Jingyao's expression darkened, and she went straight to Lü Yingying.

Her beautiful eyes scrutinized Lü Yingying up and down, and she asked coldly:

"What is your relationship with Huai'an?!"

Lü Yingying rolled a charming, big white eye, glaring at her without a trace of politeness!

"Huai'an is my Dao Companion. You call him so intimately, what are your intentions?!"

Dao Companion!?

Nangong Jingyao's beautiful eyes widened; you two actually became Dao Companions so quickly?
