Forced to Be a Villain: Starting With My Brain Extraction System-Chapter 155: End of Secret Realm Exploration (3)

Just like Lu Sheng thought, the three elders didn’t immediately chase him, leaving the portal behind.

For them, their disciples were more important, especially when they were still hopeful of getting some elites back.

So, the three elders gritted their teeth in anger and supplied even more spiritual energy to stabilize the portal, allowing the disciples to leave.

"All disciples, the portal is about to close. Leave the secret realm immediately."

Jianhong, Hua Yuelian, and Tie Shan announced with their divine sense, urging whoever was still alive inside to leave. They really couldn’t control this portal anymore.

"Swish!"

Fortunately, after their warning, more and more flashes began to appear. Unfortunately, not one of them was a Foundation Realm cultivator, making all of them grit their teeth.

They were already so angry that the moment someone from the Blood Lotus Sect appeared, they were killed without any mercy.

For a moment, the atmosphere suddenly turned tense and murderous outside, scaring the shit out of those Qi Condensation cultivators from other sects.

Those third-rate sect elders didn’t even dare to appear and complain about their losses.

’Why is he still not out... why...’

Mei Xuan was already sweating in anxiety as she still didn’t see Zhiran anywhere.

The portal was already fluttering and was about to close. It had been some time since anyone appeared from inside.

Even the elders were about to close it.

’Did he really die? No... I can feel that he is alive and well. Then, why?’

Mei Xuan really didn’t know why he was taking so long to appear. Her heart was already beating loudly in extreme anxiety.

"Wait..."

Just as the portal was about to close, Mei Xuan mustered her courage and was about to request the elders to hold it for more time, when a bright flash appeared in front of them, followed by a curse.

"Shit... I almost missed the portal. Damn, you pipesqueak."

It was Mo Zhiran, who seemed perfectly fine, just as when he left her before.

Or rather, he seemed even more energetic and cool, as the aura he showed just now was already at the early stage of the Foundation Building Realm.

But Mei Xuan didn’t care about such tiny details. Rather, as soon as she saw his figure, her heart fluttered in extreme excitement as she directly ran toward him, throwing herself into his arms and crying loudly.

"Ahh... Zhiran, I thought you were dead. Thank god, you are alive."

Her cry was particularly loud in the silent, tense environment, instantly attracting everyone’s attention toward the couple hugging each other.

But Mei Xuan seemed oblivious, as she was relieved that Mo Zhiran was alive. She never felt such relief in her life before.

Now she realized that she truly fell in love with this bastard and couldn’t leave without him.

Only when you lose someone would you know the worth of someone.

Truly, she realized that today.

"Hey, hey, idiot. You are attracting too much attention."

Seeing Mei Xuan hugging him and crying loudly, Zhiran was extremely embarrassed. But no matter how much he tried, Mei Xuan didn’t listen.

Instead, she hugged him even more, sobbing on his shoulder, as if afraid he would leave her alone.

For a moment, the situation suddenly turned so awkward that even the three elders didn’t know how to react.

"Cough... okay, I am alive and well, alright? Look, Elder Jianhong is already impatient. Let’s leave now, okay? We will talk later."

Zhiran masked his embarrassed face and pinched Mei Xuan’s waist slightly, finally waking her up. Only then did she realize what she had done.

Mei Xuan was so ashamed that she didn’t even know what to do.

So, she just played dead and whispered in his ear, sobbing softly,

"O-okay, but...you take me in there. I don’t want to leave your arms."

She was already embarrassed, so a little more didn’t matter much.

She just shamelessly asked Zhiran to carry her, making him roll his eyes. If not for the spectators around, he wanted to solidly slap her butt.

"Cough... Elder, she is a little traumatized by the incident in the secret realm. I will take care of her. Can we leave now?"

Since she was so stubborn, what could he do? Zhiran could only look at Elder Jianhong and apologize with his eyes.

"Hmm, I understand."

Fortunately, Jianhong wasn’t in the mood to care about their behavior.

Rather, he swiftly enlarged his sword just like before and ordered his disciples,

"Okay, climb the sword. We are returning to the sect."

After ordering them, he looked at the two elders and slightly bowed.

"Tie Shan, Miss Hua Yuelian, let’s meet another time. I am slightly in a hurry."

When all the disciples boarded the sword, he left without looking back, his sword disappearing in a jiffy with extreme speed toward the Divine Cauldron Sect.

Only, the ones returning to the sect were not even half of those who came before. The large sword already looked empty before, but now...

...it seemed barren.

’Damn, Black Lotus Sect... this time, I will definitely destroy your sect completely. You have gone too far.’

This wasn’t only Jianhong’s sentiment, but also that of the other sects.

After all, their losses were even greater than those of the Divine Cauldron Sect. From the looks of it, this incident managed to anger everyone this time.

Zhiran could already feel the horn of war echoing throughout the Verdant Peaks.

He knew that peace in this area was now short-lived. He should probably prepare himself, too.

’But before that...’

Zhiran looked at Mei Xuan hanging like a koala in his arms, not leaving him even after boarding the sword, speechless.

Unable to hold himself back, he finally snapped and smacked her bottom hard, particularly loudly in the small space, alerting everyone.

"Okay, you can climb down now. Do you intend to hug me all the way?"

He asked, turning Mei Xuan’s face a peach red.

This guy was more shameless than she. Couldn’t he read the situation?
