The Cold King and His Spoilt Wife: His Genius Consort Is Breathtaking

Chapter 77: The Mystic Realm Barrier Opened

Xia Muqing chuckled. “The Xiao family is indeed very good at this.”

She was implying that the Xiao family was ruthless and callous.

Old Master Xiao’s face darkened.

Seeing that the ferocious beasts had disappeared, Xia Muqing smiled and said, “That’s all for now. I’ll come back to talk to you someday.”

She returned to the Jiang family and was prepared to leave with them.

Old Master Xiao suddenly had his men surround them. “Miss, I think it’s better if you stay here. I’ll treat you well.”

Was he preparing to take her by force?

Xia Muqing sneered and was about to say something when a glow suddenly appeared in the eastern sky.

That was… the barrier of the mystic realm opening.

No one cared about anything else as they all scurried towards the east. The Xiao family was no exception.

Only the members of the Tiger Mercenary Group remained where they were. They weren’t prepared to enter the secret realm anyway.

Xia Muqing said to them, “You guys can go back. I’ll make a move first.”

Jiang Yifan pulled her back and asked, “Sister, are you going to the secret realm?”

Xia Muqing nodded.

He added, “I want to go with you, Sister.”

These words made the Jiang family lose their composure. Seeing that he insisted, they wanted to go together.

Jiang Yifan shook his head. “You don’t have to follow me. Sister can protect me, right?”

He smiled at Xia Muqing with a hint of cunningness.

Feeling his fingers in her palm, Xia Muqing nodded and said, “Don’t worry, I’ll bring him back safely.”

Only then did the Jiang couple agree with relief, as they watched them leave.

Xia Muqing asked, “What do you want to do?”

The reason why she had agreed earlier was because the youth had written a few words on her palm: Soul Returning Pearl.

That was why Xia Muqing was here.

Jiang Yifan chuckled. “Sister, you have the smell of a nightmare beast on you, but you didn’t bring it with you to the mountains. That nightmare beast must be in the middle of its evolution and is unconscious, right?”

Xia Muqing raised her eyebrows and nodded.

The smile on his face widened. “The Soul Returning Pearl is something that can help a nightmare beast. Sister must have heard the rumors and came here. I know where the Soul Returning Pearl is.”

Xia Muqing was shocked and asked, “Where is it?”

The youth smiled mysteriously and didn’t speak. He pulled and led Xia Muqing to a place.

Xia Muqing took a look around the area. Wasn’t that the hill she thought was strange?

Jiang Yifan smiled. “I got my brother to protect this place. Back when the secret realm barrier first appeared, I saw light here, and I discovered this.”

Saying so, he reached into the hill and took out a piece of wood. It was covered in mud and looked filthy.

He replied shyly, “I was afraid that it would be discovered, so I stuffed it in.”

After slowly opening it, a small box appeared in front of her eyes.

Xia Muqing took it and opened it. There was a stalk of white grass inside.

“This is the Soul Returning Pearl?”

Jiang Yifan nodded. “People assumed that the Soul Returning Pearl is a pearl. In reality, it is a medicinal ingredient.”

Seeing that he was certain, Xia Muqing asked, “How did you know?”

With arrogance in his eyes, he said, “Sister, let’s not talk about other things. From astronomy to geography, I know everything.”

Xia Muqing couldn’t help but laugh at his smug look. She rubbed his head and asked, “Then why did you want to enter the mystic realm?”

His expression suddenly became a little lonely. “My mother was originally the number one expert in the mountain range. But because she gave birth to me, she fell ill. Otherwise, our Tiger Mercenary Group wouldn’t have ended up like this. Only the blood fur can heal her body. The blood fur can only be found in the secret realm.”

Xia Muqing didn’t expect Liu Yan to really be an expert.

She held the Soul Returning Pearl in her hand and said, “I’ll accept the Soul Returning Pearl. As a reward, I’ll bring you to find the blood fur.”
