Amongst Cultivators, I Stand Above All



Naturally, Dong Xi was not afraid of this. After Shangguan Patriarch came, Dong Xi casually said that he would help Yun'er find a guard, and the matter was resolved.

When Shangguan Patriarch heard Dong Xi's words, not only did he not get angry, he even felt that this Son-In-Law was sent by the heavens to help share his worries.

Shangguan Patriarch said happily, "I've thought about it for a long time. It's indeed dangerous for the two of you to go to the Secret Realm. Yun'er has the treasures I prepared. I must make sure that you have some treasures with you as well."

After saying that, Shangguan Patriarch took out an item and handed it to Dong Xi.

Dong Xi looked at the black ball in his hand. She could even feel the violent energy from this item.

However, Dong Xi had never seen this item before.

"Father-In-Law, what is this?" Dong Xi asked.

"It's just some small things, just like firecrackers. It's just a little more powerful than that," Shangguan Patriarch smiled and said.

When Shangguan Patriarch said that it was a little more powerful, he deliberately emphasized it. Dong Xi immediately understood that the power was probably a little too strong.

Dong Xi instantly recalled the explosives thrown out by the leader at Cui Liu's shop that day.

It could not be this thing, right? Dong Xi frowned and pondered.

After thinking for a moment, Dong Xi subconsciously felt that her Father-In-Law should not be so stingy. He wanted to protect Shangguan Yun'er, but he only gave her such a small item. Was it not reasonable?

However, this was still better than nothing.

"Thank you, Father-In-Law." Dong Xi bowed and said.

...

On the morning of the journey to the Secret Realm, Dong Xi saw Shangguan Yun'er, who had been in seclusion for a long time.

Shangguan Yun'er was wearing a Daoist robe. Dong Xi had received so many Daoist robes from the Big Snake previously, so she now had some insight.

Dong Xi looked over and knew that Shangguan Yun'er's Daoist robe not only had astonishing defensive power, it also increased her speed.

Shangguan Patriarch was very generous to his daughter.

Dong Xi sized up Shangguan Yun'er and discovered that Shangguan Yun'er had already reached the second level of Qi Refinement stage.

Dong Xi could not help but click her tongue. One look and it was obvious that Shangguan Patriarch had used medicinal pills to improve it.

If it was not for the limited time, Shangguan Patriarch might have wanted to directly raise Shangguan Yun'er's cultivation to the perfection level of the Foundation Establishment stage, and then let Shangguan Yun'er follow Dong Xi to the Secret Realm.

In the past, Shangguan Yun'er was unable to cultivate, so the solutions he had prepared were useless.

Now that Shangguan Yun'er had stepped into the Dao, Shangguan Patriarch had many ways to help her raise her cultivation.

Shangguan Patriarch pulled Shangguan Yun'er with one hand and Dong Xi with the other. Shangguan Patriarch was a little surprised.

Why did this Son-In-Law's hand look like a woman's and was much smaller than his daughter's?

Although he was surprised, Shangguan Patriarch did not show it on his face. Shangguan Patriarch placed Shangguan Yun'er's hand in Dong Xi's hand and said with a smile, "Virtuous Son-In-Law, I'll hand Yun'er over to you today. You must take good care of Yun'er when we enter the Secret Realm."

Dong Xi did not agree immediately. She was even a little lost in thought.

Su Cheng's voice sounded in his sea of consciousness. He said, "This male cultivator touched your hand."

Dong Xi was speechless and said coldly, "Shut your mouth."

Shangguan Patriarch naturally could not hear her, but he looked at Dong Xi with some dissatisfaction. Realizing that Dong Xi still had not come back to his senses, Shangguan Patriarch said again, "Son-In-Law?"

Dong Xi came back to her senses and immediately said, "Father-In-Law, don't worry. I will definitely protect Yun'er."

Shangguan Patriarch nodded and said, "Son-In-Law, what were you thinking just now?"

Dong Xi was stunned for a moment, then she sighed and said, "I'm just worried about the Secret Realm. After all, it's very unfamiliar and I don't have much confidence."

When Shangguan Patriarch heard this, he comforted, "Life and death are determined by fate, and success or failure is determined by the heavens. The preparations you have made these days have already surpassed many people. When you enter the Secret Realm, don't be impulsive or advance rashly."

"Thank you, Father-In-Law, for your guidance," Dong Xi withdrew her hand and said.

As soon as she finished speaking, the crimson sky in the distance seemed to sink slowly. It collided with the blue seawater, emitting bursts of dazzling light.

"The Secret Realm is about to open. You guys should hurry up and go."

Dong Xi nodded and brought Shangguan Yun'er out of the Shangguan Residence, walking towards the Rainbow Store.

Cui Liu and Tie Zhu had been waiting for a long time in the Rainbow Store. When they saw Dong Xi bringing Shangguan Yun'er over, they looked at other places. Tie Zhu said, "Who are the other two people that's coming with us?"

The two people who went with them were people who Dong Xi had selected from countless buyers for a long time. They were people with clean family backgrounds, good abilities, and were of no threat.

Even though Dong Xi already knew, she still shook her head and said, "I don't know. We'll know when we meet them."
