Xiao Mu proposed.

The sense of danger seemed to be getting stronger and stronger.

"No!"

Xiao Zhen stiffly rejected Xiao Mu's proposal, "The mission isn't completed if the Demon Head is not killed."

"Let's go and search everywhere, we must find the demon head's whereabouts."

Having said that, he led the charge towards the demon allied base location.

He wanted to observe closely the demon base, to see if the demon head was hiding there.

Xiao Mu was taken aback, he did not expect this decision from Xiao Zhen.

He did a quick rethink before deciding to warn, "Xiao Zhen, don't blame me for not warning you. In this secret realm, there might be the existence of the True Realm."

"Existence of the True Realm? Xiao Mu, are you making a joke?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Zhen immediately stopped, staring in shock at Xiao Mu.

Seeing the disbelief on his face, it was clear he did not believe Xiao Mu's words.

How could the existence of the True Realm appear in this world?

Shi Weiyuan, Stone Soul and others were terrified, their bodies trembling.

The existence of the True Realm, which from legends, was at the same level as cultivators and Flying Sword Immortal and beyond the level of this world.

Even if a single being from there appeared, a mere finger from that being could crush them all.

"I have no reason to joke with you."

Xiao Mu coldly replied, "It's not too late to retreat now. The enemy's strength is overwhelming. I don't think the Alliance higher-ups would blame us if we withdraw."

"No."

After a brief thought, Xiao Zhen once again declined Xiao Mu's suggestion.

He studied Xiao Mu for a moment, as if trying to discern the truth of his words, before finally saying, "Regardless of whether your words are true or false, we can't just back down until we've thoroughly investigated."

"Xiao Boss, I don't think it's necessary to persevere."

Shi Weiyuan suddenly spoke up, looking flustered.

Xiao Mu's words had not scared Xiao Zhen, but they had scared him.

Despite being at odds with Xiao Mu among the entire team, he...

Existence of the True Realm, damn it, stop joking around like this. It's not good to scare people like this.

Having issues with Xiao Mu is one thing, but the key point is, he doesn't want to risk his own life.

"Xiao Boss, I think... it's better to retreat. It'll be troublesome if this is true."

Xie Wei, looking rather timid, suggested sheepishly.

"Hehe!"

Xiao Zhen suddenly let out a sneer, his gaze flittering across Xiao Mu's face, and then onto Shi Weiyuan, Dai Jin and the others.

In the end, he coldly snarled, "No one is permitted to mention retreat until we have finished investigating. Otherwise, don't blame your team leader for not being kind."

Sigh!

Xiao Mu exhale softly, looking helpless.

There wasn't much he could do with Xiao Zhen, the team lead, insisting on a full investigation.

He then focused his voice and relayed to Stone Soul and Wood Spirit, "As soon as I tell you guys 'run', drop everything and without any hesitation, flee towards the entrance."

Upon hearing these words, Stone Soul and Wood Spirit were startled.

Xiao Mu's tone made them understand the seriousness of the situation.

"Mr. Xiao, is it true? Could there really be an existence of the True Realm?" Stone Soul asked through a message.

"Yeah, Mr. Xiao, how could the existence of True Realm appear in this world? Shouldn't it be repelled by this world?" Wood Spirit also asked.

Both felt puzzled. Logically speaking, the existence of True Realm shouldn't appear in this world.

After all, the Mortal Realm was only a mundane world.

When there's an existence of True Realm, not to mention descending into the mundane world, even if it somehow appears or tries to descend, it will certainly be repelled by this world.

"I'm not certain either."

Xiao Mu shook his head and continued relaying his message, "I just sensed a powerful aura and I guessed there could be a connection to the existence of True Realm. Anyway, just be cautious and if there's any danger, run immediately."

Stone Soul and Wood Spirit agreed, and their mood started to become more serious.

If an existence from True Realm descended, the aftermath would be terrifying. There's little chance for anyone in this world to be their match.

After thinking for a while, Stone Soul transmitted, "Mr. Xiao, if we really run into a being from the True Realm, I'm afraid we can't escape. The speed of a being from the True Realm is not something that we Mutated Beings of the Fourth Realm can compare to, right?"

"Besides, even if we could escape, where could we go? In the end, won't we still be caught up by a True Realm being?"

Wood Spirit was also filled with worries, saying with a bitter smile transmitted, "Yes, Mr. Xiao, if we indeed encounter a True Realm creature, I'm afraid it won't be as simple as just wanting to escape. Not to be pessimistic, but a True Realm being could crush us just as easily as we would squash an ant."

"We can't go pessimistic until the last moment!"

Xiao Mu was displeased, and reprimanded, "At the time, we don't need to run too fast, we just need to run faster than the Beast Race."

"Ah!"

"Ah!"

Stone Soul and Wood Spirit sighed deeply, Xiao Mu's words did not offer them much comfort.

If they encounter a True Realm being, how could they escape so easily?

"Xiao Mu, Stone Soul, Wood Spirit, what are you discussing?"

Realizing something, the stern eyes of Perfected Xiao were locked onto Xiao Mu, Stone Soul, and Wood Spirit.

The conversation between the three of them was in voice transmissions, so Perfected Xiao clearly couldn't hear.

Nonetheless, by guessing, Perfected Xiao figured that they must be discussing something.

"We weren't discussing anything. Perfected Xiao, you're being paranoid."

Xiao Mu had no intention of letting Perfected Xiao know what he had done and evaded with words.

Perfected Xiao's cold gaze swept over Xiao Mu and said, "It's best if nothing was discussed. If anyone dares to destabilize the army, don't blame me for being impolite."

"You're being paranoid."

Xiao Mu responded coldly and appeared nonchalant.

"Hmm!"

Perfected Xiao snorted and turned to continue ahead.

However, he hadn't walked for long before he suddenly turned around and instructed Xiao Mu, "Xiao Mu, you're the fastest. Lead the way."

"You want me to lead the way?"

Xiao Mu was taken aback.

Perfected Xiao's arrangement clearly indicated his suspicion towards him.

This suspicion was not about him acting suspiciously, it was more likely that he was afraid Xiao Mu would collude with others to do things beyond his control.

"What? Don't you obey your group leader's arrangement?"

Perfected Xiao's face displayed a killing intent.

"I never said I won't comply. You don't have to scare me."

Xiao Mu wasn't the least bit intimidated by Perfected Xiao.

"That's better! Please lead the way."

Perfected Xiao retracted his killing intent, not intending to have a falling out with Xiao Mu immediately.

After all, he knew that even though Xiao Mu's realm was lower than his, his various odd techniques were too numerous. If a fight really broke out, even if he was able to kill the other party with the help of people like Shi Weiyuan, he definitely wouldn't get away without a few casualties.

If too many people died, he wouldn't be able to explain when they went back.

In case Xiao Mu escaped, which was highly plausible given that Xiao Mu's Fire Dragon Vehicle really was too fast, if he really wanted to escape, Perfected Xiao wouldn't be able to stop him.

If Xiao Mu escaped and reported the incident to the Alliance, Perfected Xiao would be severely punished, and execution was a possibility.

As the leader, casually killing group members was a major taboo within the Alliance.

Xiao Mu did not retort and drove the Fire Dragon Vehicle towards the front, leading the way.

However, in secret, he passed a message to Stone Soul and Wood Spirit, "If I say run, drop everything and run towards the entrance immediately, no hesitations."

He received a quick response from Stone Soul and Wood Spirit. "Got it, Mr. Xiao. Take care."

Guided by Xiao Mu, they continued forward, inch by inch, exploring the Demon Secret Realm.

According to Perfected Xiao's wishes, they were to find the Fourth Realm's late-stage Demon leader who was expected to appear but had not.

Fortunately, the Secret Realm wasn't very large, just about the size of an ordinary town in the human world.

Everyone was fast, and it didn't take long before they searched around the edge of the Secret Realm, then proceeded to the center.

After little more than an hour, they finally reached the central location.

Xiao Mu drove the Fire Dragon Vehicle, still leading in the front, and they were about to reach the center.

However, at this moment, an intense, borderless killing intent suddenly radiated from the front.

This killing intent was too strong and almost materialized into a heavy pressure.

As soon as they approached, Xiao Mu and others felt like they had fallen to the bottom of the sea. The boundless pressure was around them everywhere, so much so that they immediately slowed down.
