"But no one can enter that immortal mansion."
"Heh, I can." Zhou Hong smiled.
The members of the Dugu family looked at him with doubt.
"Let's go, no more hesitation."
After Zhou Hong finished speaking, he chopped off the heads of dozens of experts from the royal family. These heads might come in handy later.
The experts of the Dugu family could only lead Zhou Hong to the immortal mansion with trepidation.
Soon, under their guidance, Zhou Hong arrived at a depth of 100 kilometers underground. It turned out that the immortal mansion, named "Ming Jiang Yi Deng Immortal Mansion," was buried 100 kilometers deep underground, so hidden that it was no wonder it was only discovered now.
At this moment, a hole had already been dug outside the immortal mansion, and over a dozen experts from other families were trying to find a way in.
When those experts saw so many people from the Dugu family arrive, they immediately became furious. "How dare you! The Emperor has long decreed that each family can only send one person at a time. Your Dugu family has sent so many people, are you trying to...!"
Before the person could finish speaking, Zhou Hong threw out a head, which rolled to their feet.
"Ah, the Emperor!" The few people who were speaking angrily stared blankly as the Emperor's head rolled to their feet.
"What? What's going on?"
Zhou Hong remained silent, and then threw out the head of the Grand Emperor.
"Ah, the Grand Emperor?"
This time, everyone was even more dumbfounded.
In the next second, Zhou Hong, as if throwing watermelons, threw out the heads of forty to fifty royal family experts, which rolled all over the ground.
At this point, even the most composed person would be terrified.
As experts from other families of the Glazed Empire, they naturally knew how many people were in the royal family. At this moment, all those above the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm in the royal family were here.
Zhou Hong then spoke, "Everyone, you must be wondering who I am. My name is Zhou Hong. I killed all the royalty of the Glazed Empire. There is no royal family left."
"Zhou Hong? Are you perhaps Zhou Hong from the Primordial Academy?"
"Yes, I am."
"My heavens, you really killed so many people from the imperial family?"
"Of course, who else do you think it was? If you want to make a move now, hurry up. I'll give you a chance to avenge the royal family. I'll let you have three moves."
Seeing Zhou Hong's arrogant tone, the experts from other families felt a chill in their hearts. They didn't seem to doubt him, as the heads on the ground were proof.
"Senior Zhou Hong, how did you... how did you do it?"
"Don't ask. If you ask, I'll say there's someone behind me."
Everyone suddenly understood. This was the only plausible explanation. They also felt that there must be someone stronger than the Grand Emperor behind Zhou Hong.
"If you want to avenge the royal family now, hurry up. I'm waiting to enter the immortal mansion."
"Fellow Daoist Zhou Hong, stop joking with us." The crowd was not foolish; how could they avenge the royal family?
"Since that's the case, I'll go into the immortal mansion." Zhou Hong said and immediately walked forward, placing his hand on the immortal mansion.
At the same time, in his mind, Zhou Hong called out to his grandfather from his previous life.
"It's done. This immortal mansion is yours." In the next second, before Zhou Hong could even speak, his grandfather's voice came.
"Grandfather, so quickly?" Zhou Hong asked incredulously.
"A lowest-grade broken immortal mansion, how long do you think it would take?"
"Thank you, Grandfather." Zhou Hong instantly entered the immortal mansion. His body seemed to be incorporeal, passing through the walls of the mansion. The people behind him also tried to enter but were blocked.
"He can actually go in. How did he do it?" Everyone started to discuss.
"Who knows? The number one genius in the history of Primordial Academy must have extraordinary abilities."
"Tsk, no wonder they call him the number one genius."
After entering the immortal mansion, Zhou Hong immediately began searching for any treasures.
"Who are you? How can you come in?" Just as Zhou Hong was searching, a woman's voice came from behind him.
Zhou Hong turned around and broke out in a cold sweat. Someone was actually living in this immortal mansion.
"You, are you human or ghost?" Zhou Hong quickly asked, but this woman was quite beautiful.
"You haven't answered me yet. Who are you, and how can you come in?" The woman was also wary of Zhou Hong.
"Damn it, it can't be that terrifying, can it? An immortal mansion buried deep underground, and there's someone living here." Zhou Hong thought to himself, but he quickly calmed down.
"My name is Zhou Hong, and I'm from the Primordial Academy on Tianyang Continent. What about you? Why are you here?"
"This is my home, of course I'm here." The woman looked at Zhou Hong and didn't seem like a bad person, so she relaxed her guard.
"Your home?"
"Yes, this is my father's immortal mansion. Unfortunately, my father was killed by his best friend. In his dying moments, my father broke through the void with all his might and threw the immortal mansion into the mortal realm, because only here could I survive."
"Oh, oh." Zhou Hong felt that the immortal realm was also quite chaotic.
"Why did your father's best friend kill your father?"
"For my mother."
"Ah?"
"Because my father's best friend fell in love with my mother, so he launched a sneak attack from behind, wanting to kill my father and take his place. Now, my mother has probably already fallen into his hands," the woman said, tears streaming down her face.
"How long have you been here? When did this happen?"
"I don't know. I'm in this dark and sunless depths of the earth, and I can't feel time. All I know is that I've been here alone since I was eight years old. If it weren't for the energy from the immortal mansion supplying me, I would have perished long ago. It's a pity that in these depths, even with the energy supply from the immortal mansion, no one has taught me, and my cultivation is very slow. It's not easy to break through the immortal mansion's restriction and leave. I might not even be able to leave until the immortal mansion's energy is depleted."
"So that's how it is. What's your name? What's your cultivation level now?" Zhou Hong asked again.
"My name is Ruolan, and I have cultivated to the Tribulation Crossing stage. I think the reason my cultivation is so slow might be related to the fact that I can't receive lightning tribulations."
"Then, does my ability to enter mean I can take you out?" Zhou Hong asked.
"Mm-hmm, I was wondering, how could you get in? Unless your strength is at least at the immortal level, but you don't seem like it," the woman said, looking at Zhou Hong with confusion.
"Haha, you don't need to worry about that. I think it's fate, and destiny has brought me here to take you out," Zhou Hong said with a smile, feeling quite sympathetic towards the girl who had grown up alone in this place since childhood.
"Thank you, you are my savior."
"You're welcome, but are there any good things in your immortal mansion?" Zhou Hong asked.
