At that moment, Ye Qiao was drawing the crescent crossbow to its full extent and aiming at a droplet-shaped nectar.

The branches were densely covered with the nectar of a hundred years, and a flock of birds and beasts perched on the branches, watching the two of them intently.

The goddess thought she was courting death. Anyone who wasn't blind could see that the birds and beasts in the tree were almost growing into great demons by relying on the nectar hanging there, and were now only one step away from taking human form. She actually brought her here to shoot the nectar hanging there.

No wonder those monsters tore her apart!

Ye Qiao's arrow was on the bowstring, taut and suddenly shot out! The moment it hit the ground, it was incredibly powerful, yet the nectar clinging to it remained completely still.

She refused to believe it, thinking that the power of the bow drawn by hand was not great enough. She pushed aside the obstructing divine child, swung her hand, stomped hard on the bow, lifted it up, leaned back, and with a burst of power, shot an arrow that struck the teardrop-shaped nectar.

The moment it shattered, the nectar poured down like rain, soaking her completely.

The crystal-clear nectar, imbued with rich spiritual energy, was absorbed by the inner core within the body, like rainwater flowing into a river; though small, it was gradually rising.

Ye Qiao was secretly pleased. As long as she ate a little more, it wouldn't be a dream for her to increase her cultivation level in the Cloud and Mist Secret Realm by relying on the heavenly treasures.

It doesn't matter if she doesn't understand the Cloud and Mist Secret Realm; this divine child of Buddhism and Taoism clearly knows everything about it.

He must have done his homework to know what was hidden in the Cloud and Mist Secret Realm. This shows that the Buddhist and Taoist group had been planning to come to the Cloud and Mist Secret Realm for a long time.

She secretly harbored a conspiracy theory in her mind, wondering if those strangely appearing evil cultivators were somehow connected to him.

The moment the century-old nectar was shot down, the flying beast in the tree let out a low, aggrieved cry. The cry was not harsh, but simply a sound of grievance.

The divine child waited quietly for it to unleash its fury, but to his surprise, after waiting for a long time, the row of flying beasts in the tree only let out two howls. He lowered his eyes, his facial expression twitching slightly.

Soon, Ye Qiao heard the divine child call her name: "Ye Qiao".

"What?" Ye Qiao was busy searching for good things in the secret realm and was suddenly disturbed, so her tone was slightly impatient.

In the secret realm, she transformed into a gluttonous snake, eating whatever she saw.

As a pill refiner, Ye Qiao studied the medicinal effects of various spiritual plants, and swallowed any that did not conflict with her medicinal effects and were non-toxic.

A group of guardian beasts trembled as they watched their demon emperor spouting celestial treasures. Protecting the spiritual plants they guarded was the instinct of the demon beasts, but demons had a hierarchy. As the demon emperor at the top of the food chain, he was eating the spiritual plants they were guarding, so they could only silently endure it.

On the way, Shenzi watched Ye Qiao stuffing food into her mouth all the way, opening her mouth the whole time, as if she wanted to say something.

How did she manage to sweep through everything without being attacked by any monsters? Finally, he couldn't hold back any longer.

Why didn't they hit you?

All the Buddhist cultivators traveling with him were dragged into the inner perimeter by the demon kings. He felt no sorrow about his companions' fate, after all, things weren't much better in Luo Yeqiao's hands than in the demon kings' hands.

Ye Qiao glanced at him. "Because I am their Demon King."

"Don't you understand?"

"The Cloud and Mist Secret Realm is my territory."

The secret realm is full of treasures born from heaven and earth. A single Jade Flower contains decades of cultivation. Ye Qiao put it in her mouth without even looking at it.

She urgently needs to accumulate various breakthrough materials.

She didn't take the Bodhi Fruit before because she really didn't need one. Ye Qiao's breakthrough was extremely difficult. A Bodhi Fruit could help others break through easily, but for her, it was like a pebble thrown into a lake, not causing any ripples.

If things go smoothly, the entire Cloud Mist Secret Realm will be hers. She can have any rare treasures she desires; all she needs is a personal navigation system to guide her.

This divine child was the guide who came to their door; he was far more familiar with the Cloud and Mist Secret Realm than the demon beasts.

"Your territory?" The young man tilted his head slightly, seemingly not understanding, his handsome face showing a hint of blankness.

This divine child of Buddhism and Taoism has been in the Buddhist order since childhood, but he is not a simple-minded person. His plan cannot be said to be foolproof, but it has almost no way to break the deadlock.

Unfortunately, he never imagined that Ye Qiao, a proper righteous cultivator, could thrive in the Cloud and Mist Secret Realm, causing all his painstaking plans to be ruined.

The young man fell silent. He had observed along the way that none of the demon kings intended to attack her, and besides, she had no reason to lie to him.

Most of his companions had already been devoured alive by the Demon King. The Divine Child pinched his fingertips together, pondering that if he wanted to leave the Cloud and Mist Secret Realm alive, he had no choice but to stay by Ye Qiao's side.

A wise man knows when to yield. He temporarily suppressed his thoughts of avenging Xiaoque, and a smile appeared on his lips, exuding elegance. "I understand. There may have been some misunderstanding between us before. I have no ill intentions towards you."

Ye Qiao: "..."

She ignored him and continued her advance into the inner perimeter of the Cloud and Mist Secret Realm. Items that would normally fetch exorbitant prices outside ended up in her stomach.

At first, the divine child remained calm, pondering how to leave this awful place.

His miscalculation caused his revenge to backfire spectacularly, resulting in the loss of more than a dozen fellow disciples.

If he doesn't hurry up and find a way to leave, he might be left behind in the secret realm forever.

Ye Qiao ate too much during the journey. These spiritual plants and herbs in the inner area would be an incredible opportunity in the cultivation world, but she wasted all of them and ate them all.

The divine child was envious.

He wanted to eat with us too.

Knowing full well that Ye Qiao wouldn't share it with him, the Divine Child lowered his eyes gently and decided to devise a solution using his own methods.

Ye Qiao really didn't have time to pay attention to him. She was anxious to find a way to break through. For the sword cultivators of her age, breaking through realms was as easy as drinking water. It would be a lie to say that she wasn't envious. She couldn't be as relaxed as the others, so she could only eat and eat like crazy in the secret realm.

Naturally, no one noticed the divine child's hesitant expression throughout.

After some time, he finally couldn't resist anymore. His eyes softened as he fiddled with the lotus flower between his fingers.

"Ye Qiao".

Ye Qiao: "?"

He asked, "May I eat your leftovers?"

Ye Qiao: "???"
