?46: 046: Small Secret Realm 46: 046: Small Secret Realm Tang Feng felt no remorse, using the power of cultivators to deal with these mortals indeed seemed like overkill, but as long as the goal was achieved, it was fine.

    This Bone-breaking Finger was extremely brutal—one finger, one broken bone, it severed wherever it pointed.

    In the cultivation world, it was considered a defiance of the natural order.

    How could mere mortals bear it?

    Aside from the leader, the other four groaned a few times and then fainted from the pain.

    There was one who struggled to hold on, but in the face of overwhelming power, his will eventually collapsed.

    He then revealed the identity of the woman and the origins of the kidnapping.

    Small Secret Realm, Innate Master—these pieces of information came out of his mouth.

    Tang Feng didn’t know what a Small Secret Realm was, but feared that such a place might not only harbor Innate Masters.

    To create a Small Secret Realm, one had to be at least at the Gathering Spirit Stage.

    There were cultivators here, and this information thrilled Tang Feng.

    It wasn’t fear, but excitement.

    The presence of cultivators meant there were countless resources.

    It seemed the next step in his plan was to take over these Small Secret Realms.

    Youlan Mountain was the highest peak at the very edge of the sea, its summit offering an excellent vantage point for sightseeing.

    No one would have thought that a Small Secret Realm actually existed there.

    Tang Feng decided to practice alchemy tonight and turn the five people into soul slaves tomorrow.

    As long as he was at the Innate Realm, he could do it.

    After arranging for the five people and letting the two women go to sleep, Tang Feng started alchemy.

    All were low-level elixirs, and it was very easy to practice making them.

    However, it took a rather long time.

    The two women knew Tang Feng was mysterious and didn’t bother him, going to work early.

    However, Mu Qingwan had still made breakfast, but Tang Feng didn’t even have time to eat.

    After the elixirs were made, he immediately enhanced his cultivation.

    With an easy breakthrough using a Promotion Pill, he advanced to the Primordial Early Stage of the Innate Realm.

    After finishing his cultivation, he immediately used the Soul Capturing Technique.

    Of course, it was only the most basic secret technique and could only control these Postnatal Martial Artists.

    After dealing with these five people, he was utterly exhausted.

    “We pay our respects to our master,” the five said as they kneeled before Tang Feng after taking the Healing Elixirs he provided, which almost completely healed them.

    “You can leave.

    Do as you did before but inform me immediately if there’s an urgent task.

    Go now,” Tang Feng ordered the five people to leave.

    And he noticed something unusual in the hall, the woman on the second floor had already woken up.

    And she was eating.

    Tang Feng was speechless.

    Was this woman really not nervous or frightened at all in a strange environment?

    He walked over, and the woman smiled slightly, “Big brother, you prepared this, right?

    Is there any rice?”

    “Listen, miss, you’re making yourself a bit too comfortable here.

    Shouldn’t you tell me where you come from?” Tang Feng said.

    “What kind of background could I have?

    I just ran into a bunch of bad guys trying to capture me, but luckily, big brother, you saved me.

    However, I can’t very well offer my body in return,” the woman said.

    “Heh, don’t worry, in my eyes, you’re just a little girl, not interested,” Tang Feng replied with a laugh.

    “Oh, is that right?

    Wasn’t it you who bandaged me, who changed my clothes?” she replied with a smile.

    “Of course not, that kind of thing cannot be done casually.

    Alright, since you don’t want to talk, I won’t ask.

    Finish eating and leave—you’ve caused me quite a bit of trouble,” Tang Feng issued a direct eviction notice.

    “Don’t worry, brother, I won’t linger any longer than necessary,” the woman said, not because she thought Tang Feng was mean but rather indifferent to his behavior.

    She left in a hurry after finishing her food quickly.

    Tang Feng also had to go out, so he casually offered her a ride.

    Once they stepped out, he found the woman had vanished.

    Scanning with his Divine Sense, he found nothing at all.

    That was very strange indeed.

    Hey, I really shouldn’t underestimate the mortals here.

    Turns out I underestimated that girl.

    The only question is why she asked for help last night?

    Could it be that she came for someone in the villa?

    Tang Feng was dumbstruck.

    He returned to the villa, went up to the rooms, opened each one, and finally confirmed his suspicion.

    That woman actually approached me on purpose, to look for something in Xiao Ya’s room?

    “Hey, kid, what do you want calling me up like this?” Xiao Ya answered the phone with an irritated tone.

    “Sister Ya, I wanted to ask if you’ve been handling any important cases recently?” Tang Feng asked.

    “Yes, why do you ask?” Xiao Ya responded, on high alert.

    “I might have caused you some trouble.

    Someone got into your room and rummaged through your things, but I don’t know if anything’s missing.” Tang Feng said.

    “Damn it, the files for that economic case were locked in the safe.

    Go check if they’re still there,” Xiao Ya said urgently.

    Tang Feng quickly approached the safe Xiao Ya mentioned, entered the code, and swiftly opened it, but apart from some money, not a single file bag was left.

    “Sister Ya, the files are gone.”

    “What!

    Damn it, that affects the success or failure of the case.

    How could this happen, who could it be?” Xiao Ya was almost distraught.

    “It’s my fault, last night I saved someone, but I didn’t expect it to be a ruse.

    It seems they investigated quite thoroughly, specifically for your files.

    If only I had realized sooner.” Tang Feng, who had lived for tens of thousands of years, didn’t expect to be outwitted, and a tinge of anger rose in his heart.

    It appears those five intruders were just a secondary plan, or rather, meant to coordinate with the woman’s actions.

    Tang Feng laughed; he should have interrogated them once more after gaining control.

    How naive I was, not even knowing how I reached the peak in my past life.

    No wonder nobody acknowledged my strength, I was simply too much of a novice.

    My skills in dealing with interpersonal relationships were virtually non-existent.

    There is so much I still have to learn.

    Could it be that the heavens sent me back to learn these very lessons?

    Tang Feng didn’t consider himself foolish, but he had to admit he was too naive, seeing things through overly rose-colored glasses.

    How could he have foreseen that saving someone would mess up Xiao Ya’s affairs?

    “Idiot.” Xiao Ya regretted allowing Tang Feng to move into the villa.

    Had she been more insistent, perhaps it wouldn’t have been so easy for the other party to get in.

    Others might not know, but Xiao Ya was aware that there were plenty of people protecting the surroundings of the villa.

    Now lamenting was too late.

    Tang Feng decided he couldn’t remain indifferent.

    In his life, nobody dared to play him because it meant certain death.

    Youlan Mountain—Tang Feng decided to meet with the masters from the Small Secret Realm, to see exactly who was so divine.

    To make sure there were no mistakes, he specially prepared Promotion Pills.

    After consuming them, he would at least reach the Gathering Spirit Stage.

    Even if he encountered a master, he could still use some methods to escape.

    However, there would be a period afterward when he could not use True Qi, so Tang Feng would be cautious.

    At three in the afternoon, Tang Feng climbed Youlan Mountain and stood at its summit.

    He saw the azure sea before him; it truly was an exceptional place for relaxation, which explained why people kept coming up the mountain.

    With his Divine Sense, finding the Small Secret Realm would be easy, but Tang Feng didn’t do so because he didn’t want to draw attention to himself without knowing the strength of his opponent.

    He used the marks on the previous five people to locate the exact position of the Small Secret Realm.

    In a corner fifty meters below the summit, it happened that several pine trees and large rocks obstructed the view.

    Mortals wouldn’t see the small, flat platform there, but they could notice that the plants on that side grew much more luxuriantly than elsewhere.

    There were three people inside, but their strength was undetectable.

    Tang Feng decided to wait until there was only one person before entering the Secret Realm to see what he might discover.

    Half an hour later, Tang Feng smiled; his efforts finally paid off as the woman reappeared.
