Godly Stay-Home Dad-Chapter 1429: Chapter 1429 Great Acting Skill

Chapter 1429 Great Acting Skill

“Daddy, isn’t this place beautiful?”

“Yeah, it is.”

“I’ve been here a few times before, but the scenery today is the most beautiful,” Mengmeng said with a chuckle.

Why was the scenery so beautiful?

Because he was by her side.

“You’re about to turn eighteen.”

Zhang Han patted Mengmeng on the shoulder and said, “Time flies. You’ve grown from a little kid to a big girl in a flash.”

“Everyone grows up,” Mengmeng said.

“…”

Mengmeng and Zhang Han enjoyed the scenery together, and they felt very nice.

After strolling in the mountain forest for a long time, they returned to Mengmeng’s residence.

On the way, they heard a piece of news.

Many people were discussing it.

“Have you heard of the training in the Wind-Witches Evilland?”

“Yeah. I heard that a group of secret realms has appeared over there. It is said that there have been more than a dozen small secret realms discovered by the Authentic Martial Arts Sect first. They took over eleven secret realms and obtained a lot of treasures from them.”

“It is said that secret realms in groups would erupt in the Wind-Witches Evilland. I remember that the last time this happened in the Omo District was 30 years ago. A total of 156 small-scale secret realms appeared, with countless treasures and even eighth-tier spirit treasures!”

“Oh, my god. Eighth-tier spirit treasures?”

“Yes, the outbreak back then even alarmed the Four Sect Leaders. But I heard from a conversation between Elder Ma and someone else that there are about 50 secret realms this time. The level of the secret realms is at the middle level, so it is very suitable for the indoor- disciples to practice.”

“Not only the Authentic Martial Arts Sect, but also the Heavenly Evil Sect, the Ling Sea Sword Sect, and our Crimson Sunglow Sect will send a lot of people over.”

“This is the home field of many young talents. They can not only gain experience in the secret realms but also assassinate the wanted ones of other sects.”

“It’s killing two birds with one stone. They’ll be challenged and selected during the practice.”

Along the way, Zhang Han and Mengmeng had heard a lot about this practice.

When someone saw Mengmeng, he even greeted her with a smile and said, “Junior Brother Zhang, the trip to the Wind-Witches Evilland will be an opportunity to gain experience every few decades. You are peerless in pellet refining, but your strength may not be very powerful. Why don’t we team up and go there? As long as you prepare enough medicinal pellets in advance, we will reward you with satisfying treasures.”

“Yeah. Junior Brother Zhang, go with us.”

A small number of people came over to invite Mengmeng.

“Not for me. I’ll see how it goes.” Mengmeng waved her hand every time and didn’t accept the invitation.

When she was about to get back to her peak, a sect announcement was issued on the communication wristbands of every disciple.

It was sent by the mission hall of the Crimson Sunglow Sect.

“There are likely to be small secret realms in the Wind-Witches Evilland. The sect has decided that each peak gets to send 10,000 people to the Wind-Witches Evilland to gain experience, and who wants to go needs to sign up in advance. The specific list will be released one day before the departure day.”

In the past, this kind of mission would be released three days in advance.

The main reason for it was that the Peak Hosts or high-position officials would first select a group of excellent disciples. Or if they wanted any disciple to train and practice, they would have to choose them in advance. Later, they just chose randomly, or they could let the system directly select the disciples.

“Daddy, shall we go and check it out before we go back?” Mengmeng blinked and was a little eager to have a try.

“Sure.” Zhang Han smiled and said, “Let’s sign up.”

“Yeah, let’s sign up.”

The two of them signed up immediately.

However, the next day, when the list was released, Zhang Han didn’t see his name on it.

Zhang Hanyang was on the list. That was Mengmeng, but Yefeng’s name wasn’t on it.

“Daddy, why isn’t your name on it?” Mengmeng said, “I’ll go to talk to the Peak Host!”

“Forget it. Asking for his help will be too troublesome. I’ll just follow you there,” Zhang Han shook his head and said.

“Alright then.”

Mengmeng did not doubt her father’s ability. Everything would work as long as he said it would. He always got to achieve success.

“Ow! Ow! Ow!”

Dahei shouted, “My name is also on it. Xiong Fengran. What a filthy name it is.”

“Dahei.” Mengmeng suddenly had a schoolbag in her hand. She said with a smile, “Do you miss it?”

“Can I change back to my original appearance?” Dahei said in a surprised tone. It scratched its head and looked at Zhang Han.

“Sure,” Zhang Han replied casually.

“This is great!”

Dahei was happy. It returned to its original form and became a half-meter-tall chimpanzee. It patted its chest and said, “I don’t want to be a stupid human.”

After saying that, it felt that something was wrong, and quickly added, “I just don’t want to be stupid Xiong Fengran. Ahem, bah!”

After Dahei finished speaking, it ran to Mengmeng’s schoolbag quickly and lay down on the bed inside. During this period, it also said, “My host, please call me when it’s time for dinner.”

“Okay. Go to sleep.” Zhang Han nodded seriously.

Unexpectedly, Dahei slept for a whole day and night and did not wake up until it was about time to set off.

“Ow…”

Mengmeng and Zhang Han walked through the jungle and went to gather. Dahei stuck its head out and pouted, saying, “My host, don’t you love me anymore?”

...

“Get lost!”

Zhang Han threw an Exotic Beast’s inner pellet at Dahei and scolded it.

“Okay.”

Dahei happily held the inner pellet and withdrew it into Mengmeng’s schoolbag, ready to grab a bite.

Mengmeng and Zhang Han walked to the gathering place.

“Hi, Senior Sister.”

Mengmeng said hello to the young senior sister.

She naturally was okay with her.

The senior sister had a complicated expression on her face.

But faintly, she seemed to be a little disdainful. She didn’t even pay attention to Mengmeng. With a snort, she turned her head away from Mengmeng.

“Even though she’s pretty, she’s still a slutty woman!”

...

The young senior sister snorted in her heart.

She was a little jealous of Mengmeng’s beautiful face. She didn’t expect that Junior Brother Zhang Hanyang was a girl, and she was so beautiful.

“She’s powerful. She’s talented and accomplished in pellet refining.

“But she’s not a good person.

“Any woman who would take a fancy to Xiong Fengran is disgusting.”

She would never expect that Xiong Fengran currently was not a human at all.

“If I’m not mistaken.”

The young senior sister suddenly turned around and said with sharp eyes, “Junior Brother Yefeng, you’re not on the list. What are you doing here? Do you want to break the sect’s rules?”

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

The young senior sister’s change of attitude left everyone shocked.

However, this made the two people not far away sneer.

“Hah, look at the Eldest Lady of Orchid Peak. Her expression is so fake. She doesn’t even know how to act.”

“Yeah. Has she heard that Senior Brother Xuan Chen is going to deal with Zhang Hanyang?”

“I don’t think she has heard of it. Could it be that someone reported it? That’s why she pretended to be cold to Zhang Hanyang to protect her little lover?”

“Mind your words! Nothing is going on between her and Zhang Hanyang. Even if there is, it’s not something we can talk about, understand?”

Sometimes, the truth was hard to believe.

But at this time, the young senior sister meant what she was doing.

She even wanted to take revenge.

“My name isn’t on it?” Zhang Han said flatly.

His eyes lit up.

The senior sister’s eyes froze for a second. Then, she nodded and said, “How would I know? I just don’t like you. Hah, you’re just a new disciple. How dare you participate in this kind of practice? You really don’t know your place.”

She also meant it.

After that, she turned around and went to other places.

She no longer paid attention to Zhang Han.

It would be very simple for him to use a little trick to affect the senior sister’s thoughts.

It was easy to imagine how difficult it would be for others to stop Zhang Han from going wherever he wanted to go. They could hardly stop him.

Knowledge was precious, and it was the same in the Cultivation World.

Zhang Han followed Mengmeng steadily into the large transport aircraft. The fleet of hundreds of thousands of people went all out to the Wind-Witches Evilland at full speed.

At the same time, the information of the Wind-Witches Evilland had been sent to many disciples who were participating in the training.

“The Wind-Witches Evilland is a place surrounded by evil spirits all year round. Evil spirits sometimes affect people’s minds. It’s best to prepare some pure Yang treasures.”

“We can also use the medicinal pellets, talismans, formation flags, and so on that will come in need.”

“I heard that the Heavenly Evil Sect has also sent a lot of people this time. They are targeting the Ling Sea Sword Sect and have a list of people they must kill.”

“All the people that get on the list are young talents.”

“The talents are all gathered. This is a grand event.”

“There are also many young talents of our sect, such as Xuan Chen, the No.1 martial artist in the South Mountain of Sword Edge, Xu Hang, his right-hand man, and Meng Zhou, the No.1 martial artist in the North Mountain.”

“The Crimson Sunglow Sect’s law enforcement hall is led by the Third Elder, right?”

“The Third Elder, Taoist Heavenlight, is very powerful. With him around, nothing unexpected will happen to us on our trip.”

“…”

From a lot of discussions, Zhang Han learned about the situation of the team of the Crimson Sunglow Sect this time, but only the general situation. In fact, what they said was all basic information, and they didn’t know the inside news at all.

The fleet continued flying.

They had traveled for 13 days with the speedy aircraft.

During this period, Mengmeng either cultivated or stayed by Zhang Han’s side, telling him stories about her on the Vast Heaven Star.

“How could Zhang Hanyang from the Orchid Peak act so indecently while traveling?”

“I know that he likes men, but it’s not okay for him to act this way.”

“This is just inappropriate!”

“This kind of person shouldn’t be allowed to participate in the training.”

“…”

Some people around were whispering.

But Mengmeng couldn’t hear them. She had already set up a soundproof layer, and it wouldn’t matter even if she heard them.

She was a little princess, to begin with.

Thirteen days later, the fleet arrived at their destination.

“Take a rest in the aircraft. You can team up on your own. Each team contains 30 people. You can explore the small secret realms here. If you discover anything, you can report it to the others.”

The leader, Taoist Heavenlight, who was also the Third Elder, issued the rules.

“Later on, some outstanding disciples get to choose their own training teams first.”

He allowed some talented disciples to act as captains, mainly to give them a chance to practice.

Xuan Chen and the other outstanding figures were the first to choose their teams.

When it was Xu Hang’s turn, he glanced at his big brother, Xuan Chen, in his aircraft.

He smiled and began to count the names.

“Hua Churan of Orchid Peak.

“Zhang Hanyang of Orchid Peak.

“Xiong Fengran of Command Beast Peak.”

Smack!

The third name was black on the display.

“He didn’t come?

“All right then. It would be just a small lesson for him.

“But Zhang Hanyang…”

A cold light flashed in Xu Hang’s eyes.

“Hua Churan, the Eldest Lady of Orchid Peak. I’ll have her see Zhang Hanyang die with her own eyes!”

After that, Xu Hang randomly selected some weaker disciples.

A small squad was formed.

On Mengmeng’s side, when the team was formed, there were hints about gathering places.

More than a dozen ordinary disciples from the Orchid Peak were selected.

When they heard that their captain was Xu Hang, they were all pleasantly surprised.

“Wow! I’m so lucky that Senior Brother Xu Hang chose me!”

“We have a great backing now. With Senior Brother Xu Hang around, our training will definitely be much easier.”

They looked at the envious eyes of the others.

These people’s faces were full of joy. They were extremely enjoying this.

But Zhang Han thought for a while.

“What does Xu Hang mean by choosing the Eldest Lady of Orchid Peak and Mengmeng?”

Following the crowd out, they gathered at the edge of a cliff of a mountain below.

These long rows of mountain peaks were all the closest to the Wind-Witches Evilland.

The captains of the teams that could stand here were almost all renowned characters in the Crimson Sunglow Sect.

In fact, everyone knew that the situation was the same for the other three sects. Everyone got to have talented disciples leading the teams. The ones who didn’t like staying in teams could be lone wolves. In any case, this was their own choice.

Soon, everyone in Zhang Han and Mengmeng’s team had gathered.

“Hey?”

Xu Hang still remembered Zhang Han, the new disciple, Yefeng.

He laughed disdainfully. “You’re called Yefeng, aren’t you? With your meager strength, how dare you come to the Wind-Witches Evilland on your own accord? How should I punish you for violating our sect’s rules?”

“Who do you think you are? Do you think you can punish us?” Mengmeng was unhappy.

She might ignore the mean words toward her sometimes, but she would never tolerate anyone targeting her father.

“Hmm?

“Hah. Hahaha!”

Xu Hang was a little surprised. He was unhappy, but he let out an unexpected and disdainful laugh.

“Interesting. Very interesting!”

He muttered to himself, shook his head slightly, and stopped looking at them. He inadvertently glanced at Hua Churan, the Eldest Lady of Orchid Peak, and said, “The Wind-Witches Evilland is in front of us. There are a few rules in my team. First, you have to listen to my instructions. Second, don’t leave the team without permission. Third, you should be careful not only of ghosts here but also of the disciples of the other three sects. Since ancient times, those sects have been hostile to our Crimson Sunglow Sect because we are the strongest among the Four Great Sects. That’s all. Let’s set off.”

With an indifferent tone, Xu Hang took a flying ship and advanced.

The others were flying in all kinds of ways. Some of them used their swords to fly, while others were flying directly. Zhang Han and Mengmeng were among them.

Mengmeng was now carrying a schoolbag, which was different from before.

However, Xu Hang’s words made Zhang Han’s eyes freeze.

Judging from everyone’s expressions, they all felt that the Crimson Sunglow Sect was the strongest, but it was actually on par with the other three great sects. In addition, they had quite a bit of enmity toward the other three sects.

“Yefeng, you came out without permission. Stay closer to me when you’re training later. After all, you’re a new disciple. Now, you’re here mainly to broaden your horizons.” Xu Hang turned around and said kindly, “Junior Brother Zhang is a genius in pellet refining on Orchid Peak. I don’t know how strong his combat capability is, nor do I know yours. I’ll protect you guys. Of course, I’ll also need Junior Brother Zhang to provide some medicinal pellets at critical moments.”

“Huh?”

Mengmeng felt that something was wrong. “Why is Xu Hang suddenly so nice to us?”

Just as she was about to say something, Zhang Han looked thrilled. He made obeisance and said, “Thank you for taking care of me, Senior Brother Xu Hang. I’m very grateful for your help.”

“It’s all right.” Xu Hang kindly waved his hand and said, “We’re all from the same sect. I’ll definitely take good care of you, but you have to be obedient.”

At a glance, Zhang Han found that there was a deep meaning in his eyes.

“Will this guy take action?”

He laughed heartily and said, “You’re truly a nice senior brother!”

Seeing this, the others were much more relaxed. Some of them echoed with a smile.

“Yes, I’ve long heard of Senior Brother Xu Hang’s name. Everyone knows that he’s powerful and has a good temper in the sect.”

“That’s right. I’ve been admiring Senior Brother Xu Hang for a long time. I’ve finally seen him in person today.”

“Senior Brother Xu Hang is so amazing.”

Xu Hang got a group of fans immediately.

“I am a strict person. Usually, I like to communicate and chat with others. We are all fellow disciples. We can treat each other as friends. There is no need for you to be so reserved when you are with me,” he said with a smile.

“It’s so nice of you, Senior Brother Xu Hang.”

The crowd was completely overwhelmed by Xu Hang’s demeanor.

It was rare to see someone with such a good temper and strength.

Mengmeng, however, blinked her eyes. She was very smart. From her father’s reaction just now, she could guess that Xu Hang was definitely going to make trouble.

She couldn’t help but be even more vigilant against him.

“Bastard, are you trying to trick us?”

Xu Hang said some more nice words to Zhang Han and Mengmeng, and his attitude became more and more friendly. However, he only chatted with them for a while, and most of the time, he chatted with others. Soon, everyone on the team got along well.

The atmosphere was light.

However, as they went deeper into the Wind-Witches Evilland, Xu Hang gradually stopped talking. From time to time, he looked around with a grave look.

“Qitian, Zhongxi, Oulan, the three of you go to the left and investigate. Stay within 500 meters of us. I can support you at any time if there is anything unusual.”

In a valley, Xu Hang said, “Maji, the six of you go to the right side and investigate. If there is anything strange, report it to me immediately. It’s too quiet here. Maybe there are some ghosts or some small secret realms.”

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

The nine people who had been called out were divided into two teams and searched the mountains on both sides of the valley.

Quite a few of them were very nervous.

“Did we just bump into something terrifying?”

“AH!”

Suddenly, a shocked roar came from the right side.

A shadow of a withered tree appeared from the man’s side. It seemed that it was going to attack him.

“Just a weak ghost. How dare you make trouble here? Ardent Sun Slash!”

Xu Hang glared at the frightened disciple and shouted, “Retreat! I’ll deal with the enemy!”

Swoosh!

A huge blade light flashed by.

The shadow of the withered tree trembled and then dissipated.

The whole process only took ten seconds.

The disciple said gratefully, “Thank you, Senior Brother Xu Hang!”

“Gather up. It’s all right here.”

Xu Hang waved his hand.

The group of people who went out to investigate returned.

Everyone had seen how capable Xu Hang was with their own eyes. The might he exerted just now was so strong that it didn’t look like an attack from a disciple of the younger generation at all.

Some people even said, “He’s just like a protector of the sect.”

It was a little exaggerated.

Mengmeng commented on Xu Hang in her heart. “What a fancy act.

“He’s so hypocritical.”

However-

“Junior Brother Yefeng, are you used to the environment here?” Xu Hang asked with a smile.

Zhang Han tried his best to pretend to be nervous and said in a somewhat nervous tone, “Ahem, I’m not used to it. I feel a little depressed. Fortunately, we have you watching our backs. Otherwise, I wouldn’t know what to do.”

“Well, you’re a newcomer. This is your first time training, and you tend to be nervous.” Xu Hang laughed.

He looked as if he was recalling his past.

Xu Hang then lowered his voice and said, “Follow up. Let’s continue forward toward the central region. If we’re lucky, we’ll be able to encounter a small secret realm.”

A tense atmosphere was created.

“Daddy, you’re really good at acting!” Mengmeng’s amused voice appeared in Zhang Han’s ear.

“Ahem.”

Zhang Han coughed softly and said via Designated Voice-transmitting Technique, “Anyway, I have nothing to do. I feel like teasing him.”

“You’re so mean,” Mengmeng said with a grin.

“Whether he’s intentional or not, we’ll soon find out,” Zhang Han said. “Generally speaking, this kind of person, who is clearly hostile but suddenly tries to please us, is almost always plotting in secret.”

“I can feel it, but I’m not sure. I just have to be on guard against him.”

“You’re smart. It will be nice if you don’t trick him,” Zhang Han said with a laugh. Then, he reminded her, “But since we are not in the sect, we should be careful and protect ourselves. That’s the most important thing.”

“Got it.”

In the group.

Xu Hang talked to everyone from time to time, while Zhang Han and Mengmeng chatted with each other via Designated Voice-transmitting Technique at the back.

As for Hua Churan, the Eldest Lady of Orchid Peak, she followed the team silently, looking at Mengmeng from time to time.

Her expression would always be complicated.

During the trip, Xu Hang would send someone to investigate the surrounding situation from time to time.

Two days later.

“Junior Brother Yefeng, although you are a newcomer, you need to gain experience. Go to the right side and investigate with Junior Brother Zhang,” Xu Hang smiled and said.

Zhang Han said with a bright smile, “Okay, Senior Brother Xu Hang.”

Mengmeng and Zhang Han were exploring the mountain forest on the right.

As they walked, Zhang Han suddenly shouted, “What is it?!”

The ones on the team were all shocked.

Xu Hang’s eyes flickered. “Is that a God Transformation Realm ghost?”

In the depths of the forest, he had long since sensed some clues.

However, after Zhang Han went over-

“Senior Brother Xu Hang, come here now!

“There’s a ghost here!”

Zhang Han shouted.

Swoosh!

After waiting for three seconds, Xu Hang quickly flew over. Looking at the ghost that floated out of the darkness, he attacked with anger.

“Go to hell!”

Boom!

The saber radiance he shot out hacked forward and killed that ghost.

He said to Zhang Han with certainty, “Junior Brother Yefeng, don’t be afraid. No one can do anything to you with me here.”

“Thank you for saving my life, Senior Brother Xu Hang!” Zhang Han cupped his hands and said.

“Haha!”

Mengmeng’s facial muscles trembled. She was trying to hold back her laughter.

“What’s Daddy doing? He always makes me laugh.”

Just at this moment.

Boom!

On the mountainside, a huge rock suddenly slipped down.

A pitch-black hole was revealed where there was energy swirling and ripples rippling.

“Is this… a small-scale secret realm?”

Xu Hang was delighted.

More than 80% of the small secret realms would have a lot of precious treasures.

“Good heavens!”

Zhang Han exclaimed. “Senior Brother Xu Hang, you’re so powerful. You’ve created a small secret realm with one strike. That’s amazing!”

Upon hearing this, Xu Hang was stunned.

“What does that have to do with me?

“That stone should be…

“Forget it.”

He didn’t know what was going on. At this time, he found Zhang Han somewhat pleasing to the eye as he said with a smile, “Junior Brother Yefeng, take it easy. Let’s keep a low profile. At first, I just felt some energy fluctuations, but I didn’t expect it to be a small secret realm.”

“Wow!”

Mengmeng clapped her hands and exclaimed, “Senior Brother Xu Hang, you’re amazing!”

Xu Hang said seriously, “All right, let’s go into the small secret realm. Remember, when you enter it, you must be careful and listen to my orders.”

Everyone gathered together. When they began to enter, Xu Hang stared at Mengmeng’s and Zhang Han’s backs with a sneer.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

31 people from the team all entered the small secret realm.

The scenery here was very similar to that of the outside world. There was no sun and the sky was dim. They were also in a jungle. However, there was an ancient town in the canyon ahead.

The surrounding jungle was pitch-black, so dark that one couldn’t even see their fingers. Only the ancient town was a little brightly lit.

It was deathly silent, and even the sound of one’s breathing could be heard.

This sort of absolute silence and darkness caused one to shudder with fear.

It was as if there was something terrifying hidden in the jungle.

“We can’t stay here for long. Go with me to the ancient town.”

Xu Hang’s voice was low and urgent.

“The exit has been removed and it isn’t here. It’s in that ancient town. Let’s find the exit first!”

Xu Hang was quite troubled by the situation here. He could not figure out what was going on.

He assigned the guys in the most appropriate way.

“Qitian, you guys lead the way in the front and move forward in the line-up of six thorns.

“Hua Churan, you guys stay in the middle and keep an eye on the surroundings. If anything happens, alert us immediately.

“Oulan, you guys stay at the back of the team and be ready to support us at any time.

“Zhang Hanyang, Yefeng, you two follow me at the back. If anyone is injured, you can provide some medicinal pellets to help him.”

Everyone’s assignments had been divided.

Then, Xu Hang said, “Let’s go now. I doubt if there’s something terrifying behind the jungle.

“Once something happens, you guys run first and I’ll cover you.”

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

The group moved forward quickly.

Xu Hang was at the end of the team. A few meters in front of him were Zhang Han and Mengmeng, who were Yefeng and Zhang Hanyang in Xu Hang’s eyes.
