Dual cultivation makes you stronger, everyone else is a prodigy, and I'm the only one slacking

A short while later, he burst into an extremely flamboyant burst of laughter.

"Hahahaha! Li Yunyu, I thought you brought some hidden master, but it turns out you only brought this one idiot?"

Mo Fei pointed at the bulging Qiankun bag at Yu Luoning's waist, laughing so hard tears almost streamed down his face:

"Everyone, come and see! Who fills their storage bag with meat buns, mung bean cakes, and oh... even an iron pot while exploring a secret realm? Are they planning to cook in there?"

The scattered cultivators around couldn't help but chuckle upon hearing this.

Yu Luoning gave Mo Fei an even more disdainful look.

"Mind your own business when it comes to beautiful women, haven't you heard of that?"

She looked at everyone and explained:

"Not all cultivators who enter the secret realm are at the Foundation Establishment stage. Many Qi Refining disciples still need to eat to fill their stomachs; they can't just eat fasting pills every day, can they?"

"What if the time flow is different in the two realms? If we go in, we'll have to stay for several years. What will you guys eat then?"

"They went in one by one with an air of otherworldly wisdom, but came out pale, thin, and bony."

Li Yunyu never expected that Yu Luoning would have such a consideration.

He had previously dismissed Yu Luoning's hoarding spree as mere gluttony.

Unexpectedly, she gave me a pleasant surprise.

Li Yunyu's eyes were filled with admiration, but unfortunately, his eyes were covered by a white silk cloth, and no one noticed.

Upon hearing this, the laughter subsided slightly.

While everyone else was still laughing at the spectacle, some farsighted individuals were already pondering the subtle clues in Yu Luoning's words.

Secret realms are incredibly diverse, and this particular one is said to be the place where a cultivator at the Nirvana Realm passed away. The Nirvana Path lineage is known for its penchant for underworld antics, and no one can guarantee that nothing untoward will happen inside.

Li Yunyu is a genius from Nanchuan, and he cultivates the Dao of Nirvana.

His personal maid couldn't possibly be unaware of something.

Presumably, this was a subtle way of reminding them through the maid's words.

These people saw through her intentions but said nothing. They slowly walked up to Yu Luoning and bowed deeply to her.

"Thank you for your kind reminder, fellow Daoist."

Yu Luoning: "..."

Seeing this, Mo Fei raised an eyebrow and sneered:

"Ha! You actually believe her nonsense? The opening time of this secret realm is always fixed; it will automatically repel outsiders after at most half a month. Staying for several years? That's a privilege only found in the caves of powerful immortals. What does she know!"

"Well, Fellow Daoist Mo, better safe than sorry. We cultivators are quite well-off, so buying some food is no big deal. If we run out of space later, we can just throw away the mundane items that are taking up space."

"Yes, Fellow Daoist Mo, just to be on the safe side, we should prepare some food and dry rations."

Seeing Lu Feishuang deep in thought and the surrounding people turning against him, Mo Fei suddenly felt he was losing face.

He has a stubborn streak; the more he's asked to do something, the less he wants to do it.

Mo Fei sneered, "Teach me how to do things? You think you're worthy?"

"This little maid's cultivation is only at the second level of Qi Refining. You actually believe what she says? If you want to stuff a bag of rotten buns in here, I won't stop you. Today, I, Mo Fei, will put my words on the table: if I'm really trapped in this secret realm for several years, I, Mo Fei, will be dead."

Yu Luoning couldn't help but scoff, "Is writing your name backwards so cool? What a nerve. If you're so tough, try eating shit upside down. Oh, I forgot you wouldn't understand, it means eating shit upside down."

A burst of low laughter immediately erupted from the surrounding area.

"you!"

Mo Fei's temples were bulging with veins, and his face was grim.

"Fine, you wretched wench, so confident? Then let's make a bet. If you're truly trapped in this secret realm for years, I, Mo Fei, will stand upside down and eat shit in public. If not, I'll chop off your head in public and hang it on the city wall of Gutian Town, letting it rot and weather away."

"However, you may not even survive to leave the secret realm. After all, with your cultivation level, you'll only be a stepping stone for others."

Yu Luoning: "..."

Stop talking so fast!

This cannon fodder is unconventional; he actually wants to gamble with her precious life.

But if he said he was just joking, his momentum would weaken.

However, Yu Luoning's greatest strength is her ability to adapt to changing circumstances.

When it comes to a matter of life and death, she doesn't fight battles she can't win.

Just as she was about to ease the tension, the handsome man beside her spoke softly.

These words nearly scared Yu Luoning to death.

"Alright. Then please take good care of your appetite, Young Master Mo. Don't let a loss of appetite spoil everyone's enjoyment."

Yu Luoning turned around and looked at him in horror.

No, why gamble with her life?

Yu Luoning was furious, her eyes filled with resentment, and she said in a low voice, "Young Master, what do you want to witness? Do you want to witness him eating something hot, or do you want to witness my head being chopped off? You were the one who made the bet, so why should I be the one who gets hurt?"

Li Yunyu laughed: "What are you afraid of? With me here, nothing will happen to you."

Yu Luoning gritted her teeth and glared at him, arms crossed, furious.

No one can gamble with her precious life, not even if they are confident.

You just wait, kid!

Just then, a young boy walked out from the crowd, laughing loudly.

He spoke in a not-so-fluent Toho Mainland official language.

"Interesting, interesting. I thought Dongbao Continent was a barbaric land with scarce spiritual energy, where you couldn't even fart properly. I didn't expect you people here to be so resourceful."

Yu Luoning looked over. The boy who was speaking was about twelve or thirteen years old and not very tall. He was dressed in a gorgeous brocade robe.

Her hair was tied in a ponytail with two hair ribbons hanging down on either side, and two top-grade spirit stones were attached below.

What caught Yu Luoning's attention the most was that the boy was wearing a blue butterfly mask.

Ah, is that you? Prince Amusement Park.

The young man walked to Li Yunyu's side, twirled the folding fan in his hand, and smiled at him, "How about I be a witness to that shit-eating incident?"

Li Yunyu: "As long as you're happy, young friend."

The young boy smiled, flipped his hand, and the folding fan in his hand instantly unfolded, floating in the air. A surge of spiritual energy flowed out from the fan surface.

He said, "My magic artifact can record images, and I just happened to have recorded that scene. Fellow Daoist Mo, right? Don't be too weak and die before you even leave the secret realm. I'm waiting to send back the image of you eating shit upside down so my old man at home can see it."

"You! You're asking for it!"

Mo Fei's face turned ashen; he had never been treated like this before.

How dare a brat who hasn't even grown his first hair provoke him like this?

His spiritual energy suddenly surged, condensing entirely in his palm, and he swung it out fiercely.

But the palm strike missed its mark. Instead of touching the boy's clothes, the force of the blow caused the boy to lose his balance and fall heavily to the ground.

The boy, who should have been standing still, appeared silently in the spot where he had just been.

"You're quite strong, but unfortunately your eyesight isn't very good. If it weren't for the fact that the bet isn't over yet, you'd be a corpse by now."

Mo Fei froze on the spot, a cold sweat breaking out on his back.

Everyone present looked at the young man with trepidation.

But they don't have such a person in Nanchuan. I wonder which family's prodigy has come down the mountain for training.

Just then, the lake on the banks of the Zizhulin River suddenly experienced violent ripples.

"Look! The entrance to the secret realm has appeared!"
