The Martial Son-in-law

0At this point, there was no room for them to retreat. Even if they really wanted to give up, it was not much easier for them to go back the way they came.    0

    

After spending an entire day, they finally reached the peak of the first mountain peak. Looking at the endless mountains in the distance, everyone knew very well that the road to Realm of Secret was just the beginning. No wonder there were so few cultivators who could enter the Realm of Secret. At this moment, everyone finally knew how difficult this road was.    

    

After crossing numerous tall mountains, every time they climbed, it was a matter of life and death for everyone.    

    

A few days later, out of the original dozens of cultivators, only a single digit remained. All the cultivators who fell behind were waiting for the same result.    

    

They were either torn apart by Ghost Cultivator, who was wandering around, or buried in the Endless Snow Region.    

    

No matter what the result was, they would be frozen forever. They would never be discovered by anyone else.    

    

There were only two disciples left by Zheng Yuanba's side. He had thought that he would have to pay a huge price for this trip, but he didn't expect that the price would be so great.    

    

His sect had almost been completely wiped out. So what if they had arrived in Realm of Secret? So what if they had advanced to the Secluded Sect?    

    

Besides...    

    

After arriving at the Realm of Secret, he would have to eliminate the other opponents and become the Hidden Lord. He would also have to fight with the other two winners of the Realm of Secret.    

    

The chances of him winning in the end were very slim.    

    

This was the first time in Zheng Yuanba's life that he felt so powerless. When he saw Zhang Chu taking one step at a time and never stopping, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. In the face of such a desperate situation, he finally knew how big the gap between him and Zhang Chu was. Just the determination to overcome all difficulties and obstacles couldn't be compared.    

    

"Zhang Chu, congratulations on becoming the final victor of this land." Zheng Yuanba stopped moving forward. He sat on the ground and hugged the two disciples who had gradually lost consciousness. He stared at Zhang Chu and said word by word.    

    

Zhang Chu finally stopped moving. He turned around and looked at Zheng Yuanba who had lost his fighting spirit. He said in a deep voice, "Victory is right in front of you, but you want to give up now? What do you want? "    

    

Zheng Yuanba smiled bitterly. "Before entering the forbidden zone, everyone, including me, thought that they had the chance to reach the top of the world, but only after entering the forbidden zone did they realize how tiny they were in front of the Realm of Secret. " It's not just me. I'm afraid that those sects who haven't entered the mountain yet have the same thought. Their hopes are filled with despair. "    

    

Zheng Yuanba gazed at the endless mountain peak in the distance and said weakly, "I have never admired anyone in my life, nor have I ever lowered my head to any sect. In the end, I lost to this mountain peak. In front of nature, what am I? "    

    

Zhang Chu understood Zheng Yuanba's despair. Even if it was Zhang Chu himself, if it wasn't for Qin Sitong and the others, he would have lost all his fighting spirit.    

    

For the sake of the people around him, Zhang Chu couldn't stop. Before he exhausted his last breath, Zhang Chu would keep moving forward, even if it was crawling!    

    

Looking at Zheng Yuanba who had decided to wait for his death, Zhang Chu took a deep breath and said word by word: "If you stop now, your disciple's death will be meaningless."    

    

"Even if we reach the Realm of Secret, it will be meaningless. I am no match for you." Zheng Yuanba could only admit the truth.    

    

Zhang Chu's eyes focused. "It is not that there is no way to change it."    

    

"I know what your so-called method of change is. It is an insult to us to let my sect become your disciple. It is absolutely impossible." Zheng Yuanba's tone was firm as he rejected Zhang Chu's good intentions.    

    

Zhang Chu did not insist. He just said indifferently, "Everyone is dead. What dignity and glory are all gone? Dignity and honor are all gone. It doesn't matter whether it's glory or the meaning of those disciples dying. It's all given to you by you. The decision is in your hands. "    

    

After saying that, Zhang Chu no longer hesitated and turned around to continue forward.    

    

Almost as soon as he took a step forward, Zheng Yuanba's voice sounded behind him. "I won't be loyal to you, you know that."    

    

"Of course."    

    

Since you already knew that I would betray you, why are you still willing to help me?    

    

"I just feel that there are already enough people who have died."    

    

Zheng Yuanba put down the disciple who had died and slowly stood up. He clenched his fists tightly and said word by word. "You are right. If I stop like this, their deaths will be meaningless. He said the ugly words in front of him. "After I become stronger, I will leave your sect without any hesitation."    

    

"No problem." Zhang Chu was calm and relaxed, he didn't care at all.    

    

After this small interlude, everyone started their journey again. After crossing three mountains in a row, even Zhao Tang and Lin Qingyan couldn't hold on any longer.    

    

Zhang Chu carried Qin Sitong on his back while dragging Zhao Tang and Lin Qingyan with both hands. With almost his own strength, he continued to lead the group forward.    

    

Zhao Tang and Lin Qingyan had asked Zhang Chu to give up on him more than once.    

    

Zhang Chu had never answered them. All along, not abandoning the principle of not giving up had become Zhang Chu's unshakable creed.    

    

Finally...    

    

There was only one mountain left in front of him.    

    

Compared to the mountains before, this mountain was neither too tall nor too steep. It was the final bet of Zhang Chu and the others. If the Realm of Secret really existed, then it must be on this mountain.    

    

Zhang Chu took a deep breath and dragged Zhao Tang and Lin Qingyan towards their final hope with great difficulty.    

    

When they took the first step to the foot of the mountain, Lin Qingyan, who was barely breathing, suddenly stood up without any warning and broke free from Zhang Chu's grip.    

    

Under Zhang Chu's disbelieving gaze, Lin Qingyan's expression changed 180 degrees, from cowardly and cultured to calm and composed.    

    

"Lin Qingyan, what's wrong with you?" Zhang Chu asked in disbelief.    

    

The corner of Lin Qingyan's mouth raised slightly. He ignored Zhang Chu's question and swept his eyes across the mountains and mountains. He praised, "How many years has it been? "Finally, someone has set foot on this land once more. Zhang Chu, congratulations on your successful entry into the Realm of Secret. "    

    

What?! " Zhang Chu was stunned for a moment. The way he looked at Lin Qingyan changed dramatically." You... Who are you? "    

    

Lin Qingyan waved his arm gently. In an instant, his true qi was surging. His strength was not weaker than Zhang Chu's.    

    

"I am the guide of Secluded Sect."    

    

"Receiving the guide?"    

    

Not only Zhang Chu, but everyone else was dumbfounded, especially Zheng Yuanba. Just like Zhang Chu, he had suspected Lin Qingyan's identity, but he had also experienced countless life and death situations along the way. After that, Zheng Yuanba's doubts about Lin Qingyan had vanished. At least, in his opinion, Lin Qingyan was just a companion.    

    

But now, Lin Qingyan had become the guide of Secluded Sect. How could Zheng Yuanba not be shocked?
