Chapter 661 A Small Village Outside Fengling City

Even though he had been mentally prepared, Chu Ziyan's heart still surged when he heard Han Xu's question.

When he swore to follow Han Xu, Han Xu promised that he would do his best to unlock the seal of the Hidden Gate, and Chu Ziyan told Han Xu at that time that he would do it after entering the Creation Realm.

It has been a while since Han Xu entered the Creation Realm. During this period, because Han Xu himself had many things to deal with, Chu Ziyan has not urged this matter, but not urging does not mean that he is not anxious.

The entire Hidden Gate has been waiting for the day to unlock the seal for hundreds of years, how can they not be anxious.

"If you want to find the Hidden Gate, only I can take you there." Chu Ziyan said, "But, are you ready? If not, I can wait."

Han Xu shook his head. How could he not see Chu Ziyan's anxiety? Chu Ziyan had helped him a lot since they met. If it weren't for Chu Ziyan, Nishang and Yingying might have been killed by the Ming family. It was Chu Ziyan who saved them regardless of his own safety.

In Han Xu's heart, he had long regarded Chu Ziyan as a brother, and had always kept the matter of rescuing the Hidden Gate in mind. Now that he had arrived in the Tianqing Realm, and there would be no accidents in the Tianxuan Realm for the time being, he naturally had to help Chu Ziyan fulfill his wish.

"Then what are you waiting for, let's go." Han Xu said, Chu Ziyan asked, "Now?"

"What else?"

"What about Leng Wushuang?"

"I can only take her with me." Han Xu said helplessly. Although he was sure that he could take Chu Ziyan away silently, the dirt seal in his body had not yet been removed, and it was impossible to really ask Leng Wushuang to do it. Instead, it would leave a grudge in her heart.

Moreover, Leng Wushuang already knew that Chu Ziyan had returned to Tianqing Realm. If she wanted to do something bad, it would be safer to keep her by his side. At least Han Xu could know her every move at any time.

The unsealing of the Hidden Gate would definitely cause turmoil, especially since the forces that sealed the Hidden Gate would definitely not want to see it unsealed. If they knew about it, they would definitely try to stop it.

Even if the Hidden Gate was successfully unsealed, they would come to kill it as soon as possible. By then, the Hidden Gate, which had been isolated from the world for hundreds of years, would most likely not be an opponent. Therefore, every step must be taken with caution.

Han Xu could also predict from Leng Hui's attitude towards him that the Wugui Sect should not be one of the forces that participated in the sealing of the Hidden Gate. Otherwise, Leng Hui would just kill Han Xu directly. Why would he spend so much energy?

"Okay, I'll listen to you." Chu Ziyan said. He believed in Han Xu's judgment. Since Han Xu was confident that Leng Wushuang would go with him, Leng Wushuang would at least not be an enemy.

"Miss Leng, let's go." Han Xu sent a message to Leng Wushuang, who soon appeared outside the wooden house. From her expression, it can be seen that she was in a bad mood, but Han Xu did not care so much. After briefly explaining the arrangements, Chu Ziyan led the way and the three of them left here.

Along the way, Leng Wushuang spoke less and seemed to be a little worried. The previous events still made her heart a little turbulent.

But what Leng Wushuang didn't understand was that the reason why she was upset was because she cared.

Under the leadership of Chu Ziyan, the three did not pass through those larger cities, but chose some wild paths and small-scale cities to travel. In a few days, they arrived at a city called Fengling City.

It can be seen that this was a very prosperous city in the past, but for some unknown reason, it has now declined, and the strongest cultivator in the city is only at the level of a half-saint.

After the three walked out of the teleportation array, they restrained their own auras and did not stay for long. They followed Chu Ziyan out of the city, walked eastward, and entered the vast mountains.

"This city once belonged to the Hidden Gate." Chu Ziyan said, "The mountain range we are in now is called Fengling Mountain Range. Since the Hidden Gate was sealed, monsters have been rampant in Fengling Mountain Range, which indirectly led to the decline of Fengling City."

Han Xu could feel that there were many high-level monsters in this mountain range, and even powerful beings with ancient blood in the late Saint Realm.

But the three of them were all powerful people in the Creation Realm. After releasing their aura slightly, the monsters would avoid them, so they had a smooth journey. The monsters did not dare to show up in front of them, especially Han Xu. His demon king aura was so strong that even the most powerful saint beasts in the mountains could only curl up in the depths of the mountains and tremble, and did not dare to come out.

The demon king aura on Han Xu was difficult for human cultivators to detect, but it was extremely sensitive to monsters.

After traveling about six or seven hundred miles east from Fengling City, a small village appeared in front of the three people.

"There are still people here?" Leng Wushuang was surprised. Although there are human villages of different sizes outside the cities in other places, this village is located in the depths of Fengling Mountains where monsters are rampant, which is surprising.

"This is a village built by the former affiliated forces of the Hidden Gate, guarding the entrance of the Hidden Gate." Chu Ziyan said, and the three of them came to the outside of the village.

Han Xu's spiritual consciousness surged and soon covered the entire village.

This village is not big, with only more than a hundred households. On the surface, it is a paradise where men farm and women weave, but Han Xu found that except for children, everyone here has spiritual power fluctuations, and the strongest is even a strong man in the realm of creation. No wonder they can survive in this place where monsters are rampant.

Seeing a figure appear, several men nearby immediately became alert. A sturdy middle-aged man stepped forward and said to Han Xu and the other two: "Who is coming?"

At the same time, the rest of the people also quickly gathered together, with alert faces.

Chu Ziyan stepped forward and said with a smile: "Uncle Li, it's me, Ziyan!"

"Zi Yan?" The man still did not put down his guard, but looked Chu Zi Yan up and down. There was no way. Chu Zi Yan was still a child when he left. More than ten years have passed, and Chu Zi Yan's appearance has changed dramatically. No wonder he couldn't recognize him.

Chu Zi Yan thought about it, and his mind moved. His pupils changed, and an obscure spiritual wave spread out.

"Wuji Tianyan!" After seeing Chu Zi Yan's Wuji Tianyan, the man recognized it at a glance and said excitedly, "You are really the young master!"

As he said that, he bowed and saluted. Seeing this, several people behind him also saluted Chu Zi Yan.

Chu Zi Yan hurried forward to help him up and said, "Let me introduce you. This is my eldest brother, Han Xu, and this is Miss Leng."

Chu Zi Yan did not introduce Leng Wushuang too much. After all, she was from the Wugui Sect, so as not to cause unnecessary misunderstandings.

After that, Chu Ziyan said to Han Xu: "This is my uncle Li, Li Gang. I often ate at his house when I was a kid."

"Hello, senior!" Han Xu said politely. Li Gang looked at the two of them and didn't say much. Since they were brought by Chu Ziyan, they were naturally trustworthy.

"What did the young master come back for this time?"

Chu Ziyan nodded heavily.

"Let's go in and talk." Li Gang showed a happy face and welcomed the three people into the village.
