Chapter 518: Each with His Own Agenda

The moment he saw the life talisman in Duan Qing's hand, Liu Yuanji foresaw his own fate.

It was strange that all the uneasiness and panic in his heart disappeared without a trace at this moment.

At this moment, he suddenly felt relieved!

Was he wrong to work hard for his future?

No, he was not wrong!

At least he had worked hard for it. He, Liu Yuanji, was not a mediocre person!

He did not regret falling on the road to the avenue!

If he had to do it again, he would still betray his master Tang Laogui for the secret realm of Shuangshengguan! He would do anything to pursue the avenue!

With a relieved smile, Liu Yuanji's pupils slowly became dull and his fat body fell straight down.

Seeing this scene, Situ Bo could not help but be stunned on the spot. Obviously, he did not expect Liu Yuanji to die like this!

Duan Qing, on the other hand, restrained his embarrassment, with no expression on his face and no waves in his heart.

He did not take action outside before, but was afraid that he would anger the half-century old man after taking action, and then take action against him.

Now that he has been discovered by the two, he has nothing to worry about.

If he breaks in at this time and attracts the two to join forces to deal with him, he will be very passive.

Rather than doing this, it is better to take the initiative and get rid of Liu Yuanji first.

In addition, according to his observation, even if he kills Liu Yuanji, the half-century-old man in this secret realm will most likely not attack him.

When the two used the jade ring to open this secret realm just now, he could see clearly that it was the two of them who worked together to open it successfully.

There are always rules in the world. Since it takes two people to open it, it probably takes two people to leave this place. It is not something that one person can do.

This small secret realm is obviously an uninhabited place. The people who have just entered this secret realm, including him, are only three people in total.

Now that he has killed Liu Yuanji, if this person wants to open the secret realm again, he must need his help, so he judges that he is unlikely to attack him.

It is precisely because of this consideration that he decisively took action and killed Liu Yuanji first.

Once Liu Yuanji died, even if he was angry, dissatisfied or even resentful of him, he would not turn against him until he got out.

Sure enough, after being stunned for a while, Situ Bo only showed a look of surprise, but he had no intention of taking action.

Seeing this, Duan Qing walked slowly to Liu Yuanji's body, took off his bracelet calmly, and then put away the body.

"This person is the target of the sect mission that Duan accepted. I'm sorry to make you laugh." Duan Qing pretended to be stupid.

Situ Bo did not move at all during the whole process. Hearing Duan Qing's words, he quickly showed a look of sudden enlightenment. "Really! Why didn't you say it earlier, I killed him for you!"

After that, he said angrily: "Humph, you deceived me, it's not a pity to die!"

Duan Qing smiled faintly. "I am Duan Qing, and I am a disciple of Mu Yu. I haven't asked for your name yet?"

Situ Bo looked at Duan Qing in surprise, paused for a moment and said: "I am Situ Bo, a few years older than you, but I am only an outer disciple of the sect. You are a disciple of Elder Mu, so there is no need to be so polite."

I really didn't expect that the insignificant boy back then would be accepted as a disciple by Mu Yu, the law enforcement elder of the Shinto sect!

"That's not true. The one who has achieved success comes first. It's only right to call you senior." Duan Qing said very modestly.

...

Both Duan Qing and Situ Bo tacitly didn't mention Liu Yuanji again, as if they had completely forgotten about him.

Duan Qing didn't want to break up with Situ Bo and cause more trouble.

Since Situ Bo didn't do anything after he killed Liu Yuanji, he might as well pretend to be stupid.

And Situ Bo also had his own considerations.

"This secret realm originally belonged to Shuangsheng Temple. No one has set foot in it for a hundred years. Now that the thief is dead, let's explore this secret realm together and take the treasure based on our own abilities. How about that?" After exchanging pleasantries, Situ Bo seemed warm and proposed to Duan Qing.

"Oh! Then let's do as Senior Situ said." Duan Qing smiled faintly.

Soon, the two of them walked to the gate of the palace wall not far away.

Unlike what Duan Qing had seen before, this palace wall actually had two gates, separated by more than ten feet, and both were tightly closed.

The high palace wall completely blocked the sight of the two. Except for the two vermilion gates in front of them, it was almost impossible to know what was going on inside.

Duan Qing and Situ Bo looked at each other and were both a little surprised.

Such a strange layout!

Not only Duan Qing, but even Situ Bo had seen it for the first time.

After a moment of silence, Duan Qing asked Situ Bo tentatively: "According to Senior Situ, how should we proceed?"

Situ Bo thought without thinking: "This place is full of weirdness. In my opinion, it is better for us to advance and retreat together so that we can take care of each other."

He was of course exaggerating.

To be honest, he didn't think there would be any danger in such a secret place that no one had set foot in for a long time.

The reason why he said that was that he didn't want Duan Qing to get out of his control. If they went separately, if Duan Qing got hurt, he couldn't leave this place alone.

It's better to be safe than sorry. After so many years and many hardships, he relied on his cautious nature to survive until now.

The only time he was reckless and impulsive back then, the lesson he left him was extremely painful.

"Senior is right." Duan Qing nodded in response.

Situ Bo glanced at Duan Qing and took the lead to walk towards a gate on the right.

Walking in front of the vermilion gate, Situ Bo stretched out his hand and tried to push the gate gently.

But the gate didn't move at all.

Situ Bo's expression changed slightly, and he gradually increased the strength of his hands.

Suddenly, array patterns lit up on the vermilion door.

Buzz!

With a low and gentle sound, a rebound force suddenly descended on Situ Bo, directly bouncing him back.

Situ Bo stabilized his body and looked at the gradually disappearing array pattern on the gate with a serious face.

He was silent for a moment, walked to the left gate again, and tried to push the door in.

Buzz!

The sound rang again, and Situ Bo was bounced out again!

Both attempts failed, Situ Bo couldn't help but get a little impatient, his face gloomy.

Duan Qing was completely a layman in the array prohibition, so he didn't try to push the door rashly.

Looking at the high palace wall, Duan Qing suddenly had an absurd idea.

Since the main gate can't be entered, can it be climbed over the wall?

However, this idea was only fleeting.

This place was carefully set up by the Twins Temple to prohibit the air, and set up means on the gate, how could such a simple omission be left.

Thinking of the name of Shuangshengguan mentioned by Situ Bo just now, Duan Qing suddenly realized something and looked carefully at the two doors.

Situ Bo saw Duan Qing's strange expression and asked casually: "Did you find anything, little friend Duan?"

Duan Qing withdrew his gaze from the two doors and looked at Situ Bo sideways. "We will each push the door at the same time."

After saying that, he walked straight to the left door.

Situ Bo suddenly realized what he said and thought to himself that he was really confused.
