Di Yun cast a cautious glance at the Demon Sword in Wang Ruoxie's hand. Although he was at the Middle Stage of the Divine Emperor Realm, he had no confidence in being able to withstand an attack from the other side.
Even though he had many life-saving cards up his sleeve, he dared not gamble.
Because his life was far more valuable than the other's. He was the distinguished Young Master of the Di family, while the other was merely an outsider.
"Exchanging our lives for the lives of you two noble sons and daughters, it's worth it."
Wang Ruoxie smiled indifferently and said.
He naturally understood that Di Yun refraining from making a move indicated that the other party was unwilling to reach a point of mutual destruction.
Upon hearing Wang Ruoxie's words, Di Yun and Di Jin's expressions turned extremely unsightly.
Yet they couldn't refute him, nor dare they truly risk exchanging their lives.
"Brother Wang, no need for harsh words. I trust you don't wish to go to that extent either."
At this moment, Di Hua smiled at Wang Ruoxie and said.
"Di Hua, this person is from your Azure God Branch. You'd better teach him the proper attitude towards the noble lineages of the Di family."
Before Wang Ruoxie could respond, Di Yun directly addressed Di Hua.
"Young Master Yun, Brother Wang has only just arrived at our Azure God Branch and has not officially joined the Di family, so technically, he isn't part of our branch."
Di Hua smiled at Di Yun and said.
At this moment, he felt quite pleased. Previously, Di Jin had mocked and humiliated his Azure God Branch by saying no one was worthy there. Now, the dozens of followers that Di Jin brought were easily wiped out by Wang Ruoxie.
Although Wang Ruoxie was not from their Azure God Branch, it still felt like he had vented his anger for them.
Upon hearing Di Hua's words, Di Yun and Di Jin were momentarily speechless, not knowing what to say.
The other party wasn't from the Di family, nor afraid of mutual destruction. What more could they do?
"Miss Di Jin, I'll ask you once more, will you apologize?"
Wang Ruoxie gazed at Di Jin, coldly saying, "If this weren't the Di family, the mere fact that you wanted to slap Ningyue would be reason enough for me to kill you."
Knowing the true power of the Demon Sword, or rather the Godslaying Sword, he had gained confidence, realizing that among the people present, no one could threaten him.
He could even, if he wished, use the Godslaying Sword to kill everyone here.
Of course, the consequence would be alerting those ancient relics of the Di family, causing even his group to meet their end here.
After all, despite his control over the Godslaying Sword, his cultivation power wasn't enough to fully unleash its peak abilities.
Moreover, those ancient relics of the Di family, likely at the peak of the Divine Venerable Realm, could probably kill him instantly before he could even wield the Godslaying Sword.
Di Jin's face turned exceptionally sour at this. If not for her deep fear of the Godslaying Sword, she might have already taken action.
However, even with the other holding the Godslaying Sword, there was absolutely no possibility of her apologizing.
She was the dignified noble lady of the Di family. How could she face others if she apologized in public?
"Brother Wang, how about I apologize on behalf of Miss Jing?"
At this, Di Hua spoke again, "Furthermore, to compensate you, I am willing to give you the slots to enter the Chaos Secret Realm."
"What... Young Master Hua actually wants to use the slots to enter the Chaos Secret Realm as compensation?"
"Had I known this, I would also let Miss Jing slap me a thousand times if needed."
As Di Hua's words fell, everyone around couldn't help but stir, each casting envious looks toward Wang Ruoxie and Xiao Ningyue.
One must know, entering the Chaos Secret Realm is something coveted by even those in the Divine Venerable Realm as a cultivation holy land.
"Di Hua, how dare you..."
Di Yun and Di Jin wore faces of shock and anger at this moment, glaring at Di Hua as if their eyes could kill.
"Young Master Yun and Miss Jing, our Di family allocates thirty slots every century for entry into the Chaos Secret Realm, and I happened to receive two of these slots not long ago."
Di Hua looked at Di Yun and Di Jin with a smile and said, "So naturally, I can offer them to Brother Wang and Miss Ningyue."
The Chaos Secret Realm isn't owned by the Di family. It's a cultivation holy land jointly controlled by the major domains.
Within the Chaos Secret Realm, there may be no divine power present, but one can directly perceive the origins of heaven and earth. Most importantly, with some luck, one might find Innate Spiritual Medicine or even Innate Spiritual Treasures far surpassing the power of divine artifacts.
The Godslaying Sword in Wang Ruoxie's hand, for instance, can be considered an Innate Spiritual Treasure.
"Di Hua, well played."
Di Yun gave Di Hua a cold stare, uttered this phrase, and then turned to leave.
Of course, Di Jin followed suit, but before she left, she threw a glance filled with chilling killing intent at Wang Ruoxie and Xiao Ningyue.
Their visit to the Azure God Branch wasn't just about recruiting followers; it was primarily about gaining the slots to enter the Chaos Secret Realm.
Although the slots controlled by the noble lineage exceeded those of all branches combined, the number of noble sons and daughters outnumbered theirs.
In their noble lineage, their status was just average, far from comparing to those from the patriarch's line, making it almost impossible to hope for a slot.
Not long ago, they heard that because of being favored by an ancestor, Di Hua from the Azure God Branch had acquired two slots, which prompted their visit.
They assumed that once they asked, Di Hua would offer the slots, but unexpectedly, he was giving them to others instead.
If they were given to ordinary people, they might have been able to take them back, but giving them to someone like the current holder of the Godslaying Sword, unafraid of death, left them powerless.
"Young Master Hua, about those Chaos Secret Realm slots?"
After Di Yun and Di Jin left, Wang Ruoxie directly asked Di Hua.
"The Chaos Secret Realm is an independent small world outside of the Four Great Divine Domains. People from the Four Great Divine Domains can enter and train there. However, the slots for entry are mostly controlled by the major families of each divine domain."
"Therefore, ordinary people can't enter, and even our Di family's noble sons and daughters may not have this chance."
"As for the benefits of entering the Chaos Secret Realm, I can only tell you, it depends on fate. If unlucky, one might gain nothing or even see a decline in cultivation power, with significant loss of strength, or face death."
Di Hua smiled and said, "However, if fortunate, the growth in cultivation power will exceed imagination, and there may be a chance to obtain an Innate Spiritual Treasure."
"Since that's the case, why give the slots to us?"
Although Di Hua didn't elaborate, Wang Ruoxie was well aware that these slots to enter the Chaos Secret Realm were incredibly valuable.
"Even if I didn't give them to you, those two would have taken them."
Di Hua smiled and said.
