Xia Qi was silent for a moment after hearing this, then softly said, "Sir, I think you might not know the current rules of the Dark Lost Paradise."
"Rules? What rules?" Xue An asked with keen interest.
"It’s simple. The true Dark Lost Paradise only opens once every ten years, and by then, not only do you need great strength, but you also need connections and various relationships to enter!"
"Oh? I hadn’t heard of that before!" Xue An said indifferently.
Xia Qi gave a wry smile, "Of course, you haven’t heard of it. In fact, this rule hasn’t been in place for very long because, in recent years, more and more people have flocked to the Dark Lost Paradise. Originally, it had no threshold, but it has become like this now!"
Speaking of this, Xia Qi’s expression became solemn, "And our Xia Family happens to have an entry spot into the Lost Paradise."
"So as long as you agree to become a Guest Elder of our Xia Family, we will spare no effort to help you enter the Lost Paradise!"
Having said that, Xia Qi looked at Xue An, feeling very nervous inside.
Xue An’s eyes flashed with an inexplicable light after listening, then he said with a half-smile, "Sounds pretty good, but what exactly do you want me to do for you? After all, just a Guest Elder isn’t worth such a big price from you, right!"
Xia Qi remained silent for a while after hearing Xue An’s words and ultimately gave a bitter smile, "Sir, since you’re asking, I’ll tell you the truth! Our Xia Family’s situation is... very difficult right now."
Through Xia Qi’s awkward explanation that followed, Xue An finally understood what was happening.
Where there are people, there will be conflicts, and even more so in such a dark place, where competition between various forces has become white-hot.
Every day countless clans or families vanish into history, only to be replaced by new forces that rise over their corpses.
This cruel cycle of conflict repeats endlessly, like a reincarnation.
The Xia Family, where Xia Qi belongs, is no exception, and because of Wuwang Cliff’s critical location, the struggle here is even bloodier than in other cities.
For the Xia Family to have a foothold in such a place naturally speaks to its exceptional attributes.
In fact, the Xia Family has long held onto the position of being among the top ten forces at Wuwang Cliff.
This is also why Xia Qi was previously so proud of her family.
But recently, the situation suddenly changed.
The Xia Family’s arch-enemy, the Zhang Family, which was originally on equal footing in terms of strength, somehow recruited several cultivators of exceptionally high Cultivation Level.
Under these circumstances, the originally fragile balance was instantly broken, and the Zhang Family’s power began to rapidly expand.
First to bear the brunt was the Xia Family, whose territory borders closely with the Zhang Family.
At first, the Xia Family didn’t pay it much mind; after all, it wasn’t their first time fighting with the Zhang Family.
But this time, everyone in the Xia Family got it wrong.
Led by these cultivators, the Zhang Family almost steamrolled through the Xia Family’s defenses.
The Xia Family was stunned at the time; by the time they reacted, they had already lost half of their original territory in the blink of an eye.
In this situation, the Xia Family immediately mobilized all its forces to counterattack.
But alas, under the powerful suppression of those cultivators, these counterattacks almost all failed.
Then came the Xia Family’s darkest hour.
Without effective means to curb those cultivators, the Xia Family was retreating step by step.
