Lu Xuanxin nodded secretly, thinking that it was a great fortune for the Nebula Empire to have such women. She looked at the backs of these women in red, and a feeling of admiration and yearning surged in her heart. She hoped that she could become a woman like them, with her own beliefs and pursuits, and bravely face all challenges and difficulties.

"Who are those people? They are so powerful!" After the women left, the audience dared to discuss in a low voice. Their eyes were full of awe and curiosity, as if they had seen something incredible.

"I heard that the leader is the third princess, who is married to Lu Junming, the young master of the Lu family. She has a strong character and hates evil, and she has even formed a female army to deal with the bullies." An insider whispered. His tone revealed a kind of admiration and praise, as if he was full of respect and worship for the third princess.

"Chang Qingyu!" Lu Xuanxin silently remembered this name, thinking that she must repay her kindness in the future. She felt that Chang Qingyu was not only a woman with high cultivation, but also a person with a sense of justice and responsibility. She hoped that she could become a person like her and use her own strength to help more people.

Jingjiang College is located in the south of Xingyun City and covers a very large area. There are still many people who failed the exam wandering outside the college. Their eyes are full of desire and expectation, as if they hope to get a chance to change their fate. Old Lady Li took Lu Xuanxin and Tianying to the back mountain instead of the main gate and found a small path to the top of the mountain. They didn't want to attract too much attention, they just wanted to quietly enter the college and start a new life.

"Mammy, why don't we go directly to the academy?" Tianying asked, panting. The mountain road was very steep and it was very strenuous to walk, but she still insisted on keeping up with Old Lady Li. Her eyes revealed a kind of curiosity and confusion, as if she wanted to know why she chose this road to enter the academy.

"I guess the Mu family will definitely send people to hunt us down, so we will hide here for a few days and wait until the Nebula Secret Realm is opened before going down the mountain." Old Lady Li explained. Her tone revealed a sense of caution and worry, as if she was full of vigilance and precautions against the power of the Mu family. She hoped to avoid the Mu family's search before the Nebula Secret Realm was opened, and ensure the safety of Lu Xuanxin and Tianying.

The old lady of the Li family, known as the "divine fortune teller Li", lived up to her reputation. On the third day after Mu Zhen arrived at the Imperial City, just as she predicted, he also arrived at Xingyun City in a dusty state. However, when he stepped into the gate of Jingjiang College with great expectations, he found nothing. No one in the college, whether faculty or students, knew the whereabouts of the three generations of the Li family.

Mu Zhen was extremely anxious, and he knew very well that time was of the essence. So he immediately ordered the Tianyu Trading Company to conduct a carpet search in Xingyun City. They checked the outsiders door to door and carefully checked the accommodation records of the inns. However, despite such efforts, they still found nothing. However, one thing is certain, that is, the three Li family members have indeed entered the city. The farce of Lu Xuanxin and others at the city gate three days ago has long become a hot topic on the streets, so it is easy to check.

"Sir, since they have entered the city, they are most likely here for the Nebula Secret Realm. When the time comes, some people from our company will also go in, so I'll ask them to keep a close eye on them." The head of Tianyu Company, a beautiful middle-aged woman named Madam Feng, reported to Mu Zhen. Madam Feng's eyes were lively and bright, as if they could speak, revealing her shrewdness and ability.

"The secret realm will not be closed until half a year later?" Mu Zhen heard this and frowned, forming a deep "川" character. If Li and his friends really entered the secret realm, he would have to wait patiently for a while.

"Yes, sir." Madam Feng responded respectfully.

"Okay, you guys keep looking for me and notify me immediately when you have any news. I'll go back to the tribe to ask for instructions first." Mu Zhen ordered.

"Also, if anyone comes to inquire about the whereabouts of the Li family's grandparents, you should say you don't know, and don't reveal my whereabouts." Mu Zhen suddenly became serious, and his eyes revealed an unquestionable firmness. In fact, he was so eager to find the Li family not because of Mu Qiya, but because of a shocking news from the family: the mysterious blood bracelet that could recognize its owner might be in the hands of Qiya's daughter Lu Xuanxin. Therefore, even though he knew that Qiya was missing, he had to find Lu Xuanxin first to prevent her from falling into the hands of others.

Now, many forces are looking for Lu Xuanxin's whereabouts, but only the Yun Clan and the Mu Clan know her true identity. The Mu Clan learned the news because Qiya had met the ancestor when she brought Lu Xuanxin back to the clan. The ancestor saw at a glance that the blood bracelet was in Lu Xuanxin's hand, and thus speculated that the owner of the blood bracelet might be Qiya's daughter. Once the news of the blood bracelet's recognition of its owner spread, the ancestor secretly ordered Mu Zhen and others to find the mother and daughter.

Before leaving, Mu Zhen wanted to set up some obstacles for those who were pursuing him so that it would not be so easy for them to succeed.

"As you wish!" Although Mrs. Feng was somewhat puzzled, she did not ask any more questions. She knew exactly what to ask and what not to ask, a keen intuition she had developed from years of experience in the business world.

After Mu Zhen left, Madam Feng returned to the backyard, where a tall and graceful woman was respectfully waiting for her arrival.

"Master!" The woman Li Xueer saluted. Her voice was clear and pleasant, like a clear spring in the mountains.

"Xue'er, how's your training going recently?" Madam Feng asked gently, her eyes full of love. She had high hopes for this disciple.

"Master, I still haven't been able to break through to the four-star great spiritual master." Li Xue'er lowered her head and said with a gloomy look in her eyes. She has been stuck at the three-star level for more than a year, with little progress, and her confidence is almost wiped out.

"Don't worry. The most taboo thing in cultivation is to be impatient. This time the secret realm is opened, maybe there will be an opportunity for you." Madam Feng comforted, and then instructed: "After entering the secret realm, I want you to help me find two people."

"Eh?" Li Xue'er looked up at Madam Feng in surprise and asked, "Who are you looking for, Master? Is it your relative?"

"I consider her a distant niece. If I meet her, I will help her within my ability." Madam Feng couldn't tell the true identity of Lu Xuanxin and the others at the moment. She only knew that they were the bloodline of the master's family who were stranded outside. She always had a special feeling for these bloodlines and wanted to protect and help them.

"Master, rest assured, I will do as you say." Li Xueer said firmly. She knew very well that her master's orders were never easy, but she never had any complaints.

……

In Lu Fengshan's yard, Wu Tianquan said with a worried look on his face: "Brother Fengshan, didn't you say that Sister Xuanxin and the others were also going to enter the secret realm? The secret realm will be open in two days, so why haven't they come yet? Nothing happened to them on the way, right?" His tone was full of anxiety and uneasiness.

Wang Xuming, wearing white clothes, said jokingly: "Hey, Xiao Wuzi, are you interested in Zhi Xuanxin? Why are you thinking about her every day?" There was a bit of teasing and mocking in his words.

"Uncle Wang! Don't talk nonsense!" Wu Tianquan pointed at Wang Xuming and said angrily, "I'm just... just worried about her." His cheeks flushed slightly and he looked a little shy.

"Little Wu! Don't call me Uncle Wang!" Wang Xuming jumped up and rushed towards Wu Tianquan. The two of them wrestled in the yard. Their laughter and fighting filled the whole yard, adding some vitality and energy to this quiet afternoon.

Lu Fengshan watched the two people playing and was worried about Lu Xuanxin and the others. However, he thought that with Grandma Li there, there shouldn't be any big problems. They might just be delayed on the road. He looked at the sky in the distance and prayed silently in his heart that they would arrive safely.

"Brother Fengshan, don't worry too much. I believe Sister Xuanxin and the others will arrive before the secret realm opens." Although Lu Yingrou was not good at comforting people, she still tried to say a few words. Her voice was gentle and firm, giving people a sense of peace of mind.

Ye Qiuyan interrupted impatiently: "If you want to fight, go outside and fight! It's so annoying!" There was a bit of dissatisfaction and irritation in her tone, and it was obvious that she was a little impatient with the two people's fight.

Wang Xuming and Wu Tianquan smiled at each other and returned to their seats. They knew Ye Qiuyan's temper and didn't say anything more.

"The secret realm is about to open. I have to go home to see if there are any instructions. See you in two days." Feng Zhilei said and got up and left Lu Fengshan's yard. His figure looked particularly tall and firm in the afterglow of the setting sun.

Lu Yingrou and the others left one after another, leaving Lu Fengshan standing alone in the yard, staring into the distance in a trance. His heart was filled with expectations for the future and thoughts for his friends. He knew that no matter how many difficulties and challenges lay ahead, he would face them bravely.

"Brother Lu! The dean wants you to come over." A disciple ran over and said respectfully. His voice broke the tranquility of the courtyard and interrupted Lu Fengshan's thoughts.

Lu Fengshan is a well-known genius alchemist in the academy and is expected to become a two-star alchemist before the age of 20. Such a genius naturally attracted the attention of many family members, but Lu Fengshan has always maintained a low profile and indifferent attitude and does not want to be too involved in family disputes. However, he does not reject the friendship between Lu Yingrou and others because they had experienced the trip to Jingjiang together.

"The dean wants to see me? What's the matter?" Lu Fengshan muttered as he walked towards the dean's residence. He was filled with curiosity and confusion as to what the dean wanted to see him about.

There are several courtyards hidden on the hillside of the back mountain. They are the residences of the dean and other senior figures. The spiritual energy here is rich and various rare spiritual medicines are planted here, giving people a sense of tranquility and mystery.

"Fengshan is here, come in quickly." As soon as Lu Fengshan arrived at the gate of the hospital, he heard a gentle voice coming from inside. It was the voice of the dean, and his words were full of kindness and care.

Lu Fengshan paused for a moment and then walked into the living room. His heart was filled with respect and gratitude for the dean.

"Brother! Brother!" Lu Fengshan was shocked by two surprised shouts as soon as he entered the door. It was a familiar voice that he missed day and night.

"Shuang'er! Xuanxin!" He quickly stepped forward, looked around at the two girls and said reproachfully, "Why did you come so late? I was so worried." Although there was blame in his tone, there was more concern and love.

The two girls smiled and didn't say much, just used their eyes to communicate their feelings. They knew Lu Fengshan's worry and care, and they also understood the tacit understanding and concern in each other's hearts. In this world full of unknowns and challenges, they will face everything together and create their future together.

The dean, a kind and amiable old man, always had a smile on his face that was as warm as the sunshine in early spring. That smile seemed to dispel all the haze and give people endless comfort and encouragement. He slowly walked to Lu Fengshan, looked at him with his eyes full of wisdom and love, and said earnestly: "Fengshan, your second sister just came and is not familiar with our college. As a brother, you should take her around and visit the campus first, so that she can get familiar with it quickly and feel the warmth of home."

When Li Ai, the legendary master, quietly came to the academy, the dean was so happy that he almost lost his mind. After all, Li Ai was a legendary figure that attracted talented disciples from all over the continent. Her arrival undoubtedly added supreme glory to the academy. However, Senior Feng was a low-key person and did not like to show off. The dean also kept silent tacitly, without making a big fuss, and only shared this joy with a few confidants in private.

Finally, the day that everyone has been waiting for for a long time - the big day of the opening of the Nebula Secret Realm has arrived. This secret realm is not located in the Nebula City, but hidden in the rolling mountains outside the city, a mysterious place called Luoyun Valley. There are clouds and mists all year round, like a fairyland, and usually there are powerful spiritual masters guarding it closely to prevent accidents.
