Chapter 23: The Secret Realm Opens, Lin Qi’an Sets Off
Half a month later, at Tianchi Holy Land.
The scouts sent to investigate the secret realm returned.
“Your Highness, there are signs of a secret realm opening near the Jiuwang Mountain!”
“In less than two days, the news will spread, and the entire southern region of the Canglan Dao Domain will come to compete for the resources.”
“Jiuwang Mountain, the territory of the Nanyue King?”
“It’s said that the Nanyue King’s son is a devoted lackey of the Imperial Prince. Let’s hope he doesn’t cause trouble for himself.”
Lin Qi’an stood up. “Spread the word, we are heading to Jiuwang Mountain!”
Three flood dragons pulled a golden carriage into the sky, flanked by dozens of white-clad Sword Guards.
Outside, the entire Tianchi Holy Land chorused:
“Farewell, Your Highness!!”
Inside the carriage, Lin Qi’an and Su Xuení were seated.
“How is it? Is this carriage comfortable?”
“Your Highness’s carriage is naturally comfortable… But as a mere maid, do I truly deserve to sit here?”
“If I say you do, then you do.”
Su Xuení’s beautiful eyes sparkled as she lifted the curtain, seeing the accompanying Sword Guards and the flying flood dragons.
Her heart raced with excitement and joy. Although she was just a maid in name, this treatment was akin to that of a Dao companion. The Prince’s numerous kindnesses made her feel somewhat guilty for only thinking about his body.
“Thank you, Your Highness, for your favor…” Su Xuení’s soft voice lingered as her delicate figure gently kissed Lin Qi’an’s cheek.
Like a butterfly, she touched and left quickly. Her stunning face, which drove countless saints and geniuses mad, was now flushed with red, full of charm.
Her gaze flitted around shyly, making her look like a bashful kitten.
“I wish to rest for a while, but there is no comfortable pillow in this carriage,” Lin Qi’an frowned.
“If Your Highness doesn’t mind, you can… rest on Xuení’s lap.” Su Xuení sat properly, her legs together.
The moon-white dress outlined her rounded thighs, paired with her exquisite curves, presenting an absolute beauty.
“Not a bad suggestion.” Lin Qi’an laid on Su Xuení’s lap, enjoying the fragrance and the comfortable massage, feeling utterly at ease.

Elsewhere.
Ling Tian lived up to his destiny as a child of luck. After leaving for a few days, he had already restored his peak combat power. With the help of the Nine Yang Divine Technique, he fought and won numerous battles, gaining many benefits.
He turned his anger into strength, killing decisively and growing through experience. Eventually, he solidified his cultivation at the peak of the Heaven Ascendant Realm.
In just half a month, such speed could only be described as monstrous. Placed in any holy land, he could suppress all the saints and geniuses.
He had already killed more Heaven Dominion Realm experts than he could count on both hands! And the Crown Prince Lin Qi’an was at the Heaven Dominion Realm.
“This still isn’t enough! As the Crown Prince, he must have protective treasures. To kill him, I must at least reach the Heaven Dominion Realm.”
“The recent commotion about the secret realm at Jiuwang Mountain is said to be the relic of at least a Sovereign Realm expert!”
“Moreover, secret realms usually suppress cultivation, meaning his protector cannot enter. If he dares to enter, I will kill him! If he doesn’t, I will gain the treasures and still kill him!”
Ling Tian’s face twisted with a savage grin, his eyes burning with fervor.
Seeing his expression, Ling Yu couldn’t help but worry…
Killing the Crown Prince seemed to have become his obsession. If this obsession grew too strong, it could alter his nature, leading him into the demonic path.

Nanyue King’s City.
The Nanyue King was a prince with the same surname as the Taian Imperial Family.
His son, Zhao Sanfeng, regarded the Imperial Prince as a close friend but looked down on Lin Qi’an. They were both crown princes, but Beiyang was merely a vassal. How could it compare to him?!
“How dare he take the Imperial Prince’s woman! He must have a death wish! Now he dares to come to my territory, eyeing the secret realm? Dream on!”
“Send orders to block the area around Jiuwang Mountain. No one is allowed to approach!”
One day.
Jiuwang Mountain erupted with radiant light, spiritual energy surging out, more concentrated than usual by a hundredfold. Above the mountain, a portal of white light appeared, exuding a terrifying aura even from ten miles away.
The secret realm was opening!
Bold cultivators ventured closer and discovered it to be at least a quasi-Saint level secret realm! This news spread like wildfire, sweeping across the southern half of the Canglan Dao Domain.
Countless holy lands and sects moved, heading towards the area.
A quasi-Saint level secret realm contained at least the relics of a quasi-Saint, potentially holding rare treasures. Divine abilities, secret techniques, heavenly materials, and precious pills could be found in abundance!
The possessions of a quasi-Saint could drive the world mad. With any luck, one could soar to new heights.

In the sky.
Countless radiant streaks crossed, dazzling and brilliant!
These were the traces of the holy land geniuses passing by. Some rode white jade carriages, some used flying artifacts, some rode giant beasts, and some walked on air.
The sight was grand!
However, these enthusiastic sects and holy lands were blocked by a line of defense around the mountain, unable to approach Jiuwang Mountain.
“The Nanyue Crown Prince has ordered that this secret realm belongs to Nanyue. No one is allowed to approach. Violators will be killed without mercy!”
