A Man Like None Other

David shook his head: “You go first.”

“Senior?” Ling Shuang and Lie Tian were both taken aback.

“I’ll go find Shi Yan and Ying Wu.” David’s gaze was firm. “They haven’t returned on time, they must have encountered trouble. I can’t abandon them.”

“But Senior, there are search parties everywhere outside, it’s too dangerous for you to act alone!” Ling Shuang said anxiously, her eyes showing genuine worry.

Lie Tian also advised, “Senior, Shi Yan and Ying Wu are both alert children. Perhaps they were just delayed by something, or are hiding somewhere. If you go out now, what if…”

“There is no ‘what if’.”

David’s tone was calm, but with an undeniable determination. “I came to the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect with them. It is my responsibility to find them and get them out of here safely.”

“You go to the secret realm first and tell me the exact location and how to enter. After I find them, I will meet up with you.”

Seeing that David’s mind was made up, Ling Shuang knew that further persuasion was useless.

She bit her lip, took out a fiery red, feather-shaped jade pendant from her bosom, and handed it to David: “Senior, this is the Blazing Fire Pendant, one of the keys to opening the entrance to the secret realm.”

“The entrance to the secret realm is located about 20,000 miles southwest, at the deepest part of the Crimson Flame Canyon, where there is a crimson rock wall that burns eternally.”

“Hold the Blazing Fire Pendant, circulate your fire-attribute spiritual power to activate it, and simultaneously use your divine sense to inscribe the seal I’m passing on to you. This will open the temporary entrance.”

As she spoke, she transmitted a complex and profound seal into David’s mind with her divine sense.

David sensed it briefly and memorized it, then took the Blazing Fire Pendant and put it away.

“Senior, please be careful! We’ll be waiting for you in the secret realm!” Ling Shuang looked at David, her eyes
