Is There a Little Dragon Turtle?

At Lighthouse Country, the satellite base.

It was an office floor specialized in detecting the world's top ten mythical-grade secret realms. No, it should be the top nine mythical-grade secret realms.

The person in charge of the office, Neil, was sitting in his office leisurely, drinking coffee. Suddenly, someone pushed open the door, and his subordinate's hurried roar scared him so much that he spilled his coffee all over the table.

"Sir! Something bad happened, sir!"

"Speak!" Neil looked at the brown coffee on the table and glared at his subordinate.

"There's something unusual happening in the nine mythical-grade secret realms!" The subordinate's eyes were filled with anxiety and fear.

Neil's body trembled when he heard that.

Neil immediately forgot about the spilled coffee and became nervous.

Neil quickly stood up from his desk and called his subordinates to the monitoring center.

After a while, they arrived at the monitoring center. Neil stared at the nine scenes on the big screen.

The nine scenes corresponded to the nine mythical-grade secret realms. At a glance, they were still and picturesque. There was no sign that anything unusual had happened.

Neil immediately glared at his subordinate and scolded, "Oh my goodness! How could you lie?"

The subordinate said aggrievedly, "There was indeed a little dragon turtle crawling out of the Dragon Turtle Secret Realm just now." 

"Replay!" Neil didn't object to his subordinate. Instead, he gave him a chance to prove himself.

The subordinate quickly came to the workbench and replayed the scene where he saw the little dragon turtle.

He set it at five times slower, ten times slower, and twenty times slower.

Until it was a hundred times slower.

At this moment, the subordinate was dumbfounded.

"Did the little dragon turtle disappear?"

The subordinate blinked and stared at the screen.

Neil glared at him and said in a frustrated tone, "Is it your illusion?"

Meanwhile, Neil remembered the cup of coffee that he spilled on the table.

Neil recalled that he had just freshly brewed the coffee.

The subordinate tried to explain, "Dear Mr. Neil, please trust me. I saw it just now." 

"I don't think you're suitable for this job."

Neil glanced at him coldly and said, "I'll transfer you to another team tomorrow. Important things should be left to professionals. Unfortunately, it's obvious that you're not."

After Neil finished his words, he turned around and left.

The subordinate stared at the screen in a daze, frowning in confusion.

He just…

He just saw the little dragon turtle leave the secret realm.

But why?

The subordinate was puzzled.

…

Bai Zun had been conquering secret realms for the past few days.

Bai Zun had improved his rank from level 215 to level 220, but he was still 20 levels away from the requirement to achieve his eighth transition.

Bai Zun raised his Immortal-slaying Sword and killed another legendary-grade mutated beast. After killing the legendary-grade mutant beast, he took the legendary-grade equipment it had dropped and swiftly left the secret realm.

As Bai Zun walked, he glanced at his attribute panel and couldn't help but feel tired.

According to the current situation, if Bai Zun wanted to level up to 20 levels, he would need to conquer a terrifying number of legendary-grade secret realms.

Perhaps…

Bai Zun needed to take down all the legendary-grade secret realms in the Dragon Country.

Bai Zun murmured, "So I can only go and conquer the mythical-grade secret realms?"

When Bai Zun conquered the mythical-grade secret realm, the Sirius Wolf Secret Realm, last time, he was only level 213. It had been quite difficult for him to fight against a group of level 210 to level 240 monsters and "bosses."

Bai Zun wondered if things would be better now that he was level 220.

As Bai Zun thought about it, he stopped thinking and let out a breath before stepping out of the secret realm.

Afterward, Bai Zun floated in the air, stepped on the Immortal-slaying Sword, and rushed toward the Storm City.

Ten days ago, Bai Zun had given the guild members an order to meet the requirements for their class transition within ten days.

Since it was the tenth day, Bai Zun was going back to test the members' strengths.

At the same time, Bai Zun would also rank the current members according to their strengths.

After all, Bai Zun couldn't rely on himself to conquer the Dimensional World in the future.

Bai Zun soon returned to Storm City on the Immortal-Slaying Sword.

Bai Zun didn't go directly to Storm Square but returned to his villa.

Bai Zun remembered Ye Shuishui contacted him the day before yesterday, saying that someone from the Lighthouse Country wanted to talk to him.

Bai Zun wasn't sure why the people from the Lighthouse Country had come, but he didn't stop conquering the secret realm. Instead, he left them hanging for two days.

Soon, Bai Zun returned to his villa.

Ye Shuishui quickly went up to him.

Bai Zun instructed, "Call those people from the Lighthouse Country to my study."

Ye Shuishui nodded.

Bai Zun went to the study and sat on the chair for a minute. Afterward, someone knocked on the door.

Bai Zun said indifferently, "You may enter."

Someone opened the door to the study. Two beautiful Western women with blonde hair and blue eyes walked in.

They had slim waists, and they wore tight sheath skirts. They perfectly showed their nice curves, making them look alluring.

However, Bai Zun only glanced at them. When he looked at them, his eyes didn't show any emotion.

The beautiful lady from Lighthouse Country walked over with a smile and sat down on the chair in front of Bai Zun.

"I'm Shalila, and this is Ally."

One of the beauties from Lighthouse Country showed a pretty smile. Her voice was magnetic and seductive. She said, "I've long heard of the Lord of the Sword. Now that I've seen you today, you're indeed..."

Bai Zun interrupted coldly and said, "Get to the point." 

Shalila and Ally looked at each other awkwardly. Afterward, she adjusted her smile and said.

"Here's the situation. Lord of the Sword, I'm here on behalf of the Lighthouse Country's officials."

"We want to invite you to join Lighthouse Country."

Shalila smiled as if she were confident in winning over Bai Zun.

Bai Zun said indifferently, "That's all?" 

"Yes." Shalila nodded.

"Well, you can go back." Bai Zun ruthlessly chased them away. Although he didn't directly refuse, actions were always more direct than words.

Bai Zun rejected Lighthouse Country's offer.

Shalila was stunned, and her beautiful eyes revealed some disbelief. "Lord of the Sword, you should know."

"If you bring the Nightmare Guild to our Lighthouse Country, we can give you countless resources! If you want it, the Lighthouse Country will do its best to satisfy you!"

Shalila's tone and appearance were serious, but Bai Zun showed no mercy.

Bai Zun coldly refused, "No need." 

In the chaotic era, one could only stand firm if they were strong.

The Lighthouse Country was powerful, but it was already in the past.

In the new era, the strongest country of the old era was like ashes, dissipating with a single blow.

Bai Zun ignored Shalila and Ally. Afterward, he stood up and was about to leave the study.

"We can give you beautiful women, power, and resources!"

"If you agree, we can accompany you tonight."

Seeing that Bai Zun was going to leave, Shalila became anxious. As she chased after him, she immediately spoke.

However, Bai Zun stepped on the Immortal-slaying Sword and flew into the sky after he left his villa. Shalila could only look at the man's back until he disappeared into the clouds.

At this moment, Ally also came out.

Ally frowned and asked, "Sister, what should we do now?" 

"Return to the country and report everything." Shalila signaled Ally to leave with a calm expression.

Before roping Bai Zun in, the Lighthouse Country had expected him to refuse.

Moreover, the Lighthouse Country also set up a series of plans for how they would respond if Bai Zun refused.

If they couldn't become partners, they could only become enemies.

Otherwise, if the Lighthouse Country left Bai Zun in the Dragon Country, Dent, the president of the Lighthouse Country, would have insomnia.
