CHAPTER 1112: 29. COMPETE WITH ME

The shopkeeper put away the Divine Crystal, "You all sit in the hall for a while, I’ll have the attendant tidy up a place for you."

Yun Han nodded and glanced around. He noticed that the hall was nearly full, with only a vacant table in the corner. "Xixi, let’s sit over there." In a place like Qi Inn, where people from all walks of life gather, it’s the easiest place to obtain information.

The two sat down, ordering a pot of tea and a plate of snacks.

"Did you know? There will be a Wuquan Flower on display at the City Lord’s Mansion’s flower appreciation event this time." A young man at the neighboring table said.

"Of course, I know. It’s a pity we’re loose cultivators, so we can’t even enter the City Lord’s Mansion. Otherwise, I’d love to see that Wuquan Flower with my own eyes."

"Stop dreaming. We should pin our hopes on the selection for the Green Mountain Secret Realm."

Yun Han and Lu Lanxi were a bit curious after hearing what that cultivator said.

"The selection for the Green Mountain Secret Realm is not easy either. There are many cultivators competing this time. Have you not noticed that the rooms in the Qi Inn are all full?"

"It is precisely because it’s not easy that everyone flocks to it. I’ve heard that the cultivators who previously entered the Green Mountain Secret Realm had their cultivation reach the Divine General Level when they came out."

"But there are also many cultivators who went in and never came out."

"Whether they come out or not, I certainly won’t give up on such an opportunity."

Yun Han stood up and bowed to the three cultivators who were enthusiastically discussing, "Gentlemen! May I ask, when does the selection for the Green Mountain Secret Realm begin?" Although with their current strength, they definitely couldn’t participate in the selection, just watching the excitement would also be nice.

The three turned to look at Yun Han, and seeing his cultivation, they couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

"Even if we tell you, it’s useless. With your level of cultivation, going there is pointless."

"Exactly, the minimum requirement for this selection is at least the Divine Envoy Level."

"But you can still go and watch the excitement."

"We are just here to watch the excitement. Please, gentlemen, let us know." Yun Han gestured for the waiter to bring the tea they ordered to the three.

Seeing this, the three men smiled in satisfaction.

"Seeing that you are so sincere, we’ll tell you. The Green Mountain Secret Realm selection competition is held seven days from now in Musha Square."

"This time, a total of a thousand cultivators will be selected, with major sects and families also sending participants."

"Like other selections, it’s chosen through a competition."

"It’s said that the Green Mountain Secret Realm contains all kinds of Divine Spirit Grass and even Divine Crystal Mines."

"There’s also the Mysterious Heavenly Water, a miraculous substance that allows one to level up with just one sip."

After listening to the three, Yun Han and Lu Lanxi had a rough idea of the Green Mountain Secret Realm selection.

"Even when you go to watch the excitement, be careful. Musha Square has groups specifically preying on low-level cultivators."

At this time, the attendant came over to inform Yun Han and Lu Lanxi that the room had been tidied up.

Yun Han nodded, stood up, and bowed to the three, "Thank you, gentlemen, for the information!" The circumstances they described also occurred in the Immortal Realm. When he and Xiao Yao went to participate in the Immortal Ship quota selection, they were extorted by several cultivators. But in the end, those cultivators were all dealt with by him and Xiao Yao.

Led by the attendant, Yun Han and Lu Lanxi arrived at the room.

After some tidying, the room was now very clean and tidy, with a bed and tables and chairs already set up inside.

Yun Han and Lu Lanxi entered the room and closed the door.

Lu Lanxi immediately set up a formation within the room.

Yun Han walked over to the table, sat down, picked up the teapot, and poured a cup for himself and Lu Lanxi. "Xixi, sit down, I have something to tell you."

Lu Lanxi sat across from Yun Han, looking at him, waiting for him to speak.

"Xixi, be honest with me, do you like that Yaen Yue?" Yun Han looked at Lu Lanxi and asked. He didn’t know why, but he felt a bit nervous inside.

"Of course, I like him!" Lu Lanxi responded without hesitation. She merely admired Yaen Yue, and the affection was purely friendly.

Yun Han felt a tightness in his chest, an indescribable feeling surged within him, "Do you really like him?" Didn’t she say she liked him before?

Lu Lanxi nodded, a sly gleam flashing in her eyes, "He’s good-looking, has a good family background, and decent cultivation talent. I have no reason not to like him. Brother Yun Han, don’t you think so?" Let the jealousy come even stronger.

"How about compared to me?" Yun Han blurted out. Realizing what he just asked, his face immediately turned red. What’s wrong with me? I’m supposed to be Xixi’s elder.

Lu Lanxi struggled to hold back a smile, propped her chin up with both hands, and sized up Yun Han.

Yun Han felt a bit nervous under Lu Lanxi’s gaze.

After a long moment, Lu Lanxi finally spoke slowly, "Brother Yun Han is of course better, but didn’t Brother Yun Han forbid me from liking you? Or does Brother Yun Han wish for me to remain single forever?"

"You’re still young and don’t understand how dangerous human nature can be. Wait until you’re older to discuss relationships. By then, you’ll know who might be right for you." Yun Han said.

Lu Lanxi took a sip of tea from the table and said leisurely, "Young? My mom met my dad when she was only seventeen, a year younger than I am now, and they’re very happy now."

"Your parents’ situation was different; they already knew each other in their previous lives." Yun Han replied. Since Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo entrusted Lu Lanxi to him, he must be responsible for her and definitely can’t let her run wild outside.

"I can start by dating and see. If it’s not suitable, I can look again. How will I know if someone is good without trying? If my parents found out, they’d surely support me." Lu Lanxi mischievously raised her brow, smiling as she looked at Yun Han.
