The Immortal Emperor Reborn: Accompanying My Child on the Extraordinary Journey

Chapter 33: Exploring the Secret Realm

As she spoke, Xia Qingyue turned and looked at the Valley Master, a cold light flashing in her eyes: "How dare you hurt my disciple! I will make you pay the price!"

The Valley Master looked at Xia Qingyue with a sneer on his face. "Hmph, Xia Qingyue, do you think that a mere woman like you can run wild in my valley? Today, I will let you know what true strength is!"

Before he finished speaking, the Valley Master moved, lunging towards Xia Qingyue like a ghost. His hands condensed with powerful spiritual energy, gleaming with a purple light, clearly exerting all his might.

Xia Qingyue snorted coldly, and with a light, nimble flash, she dodged the Valley Master's attack. She swung her longsword, and the blade flashed like a dragon, slashing towards the Valley Master.

The Valley Master moved once more, narrowly dodging the sword. He couldn't help but feel a little surprised. He hadn't expected Xia Qingyue to be so powerful, to be able to rival him.

"Hmph, Xia Qingyue, it seems I underestimated you. But, do you think you can defeat me like this? Too naive!" The Valley Master roared, his aura rising again, and it was obvious that he had exerted even greater strength.

Xia Qingyue's expression was solemn. She could sense that the Valley Master's aura was growing stronger. If this continued, she would probably be at a disadvantage.

At this moment, Yun Che suddenly shouted, "Master, I'm here to help you!"

As he spoke, Yun Che moved, charging towards the Valley Master like a flash of lightning. His hands condensed with golden spiritual energy, gleaming with dazzling light, clearly exerting all his strength.

When the Valley Master saw Yun Che rushing towards him, a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes: "Hmph, a mere piece of trash dares to come and die!"

However, when Yun Che's fist collided with the Valley Master's hands, the Valley Master's expression instantly became solemn. He could feel the powerful force contained in Yun Che's fist, which made it difficult for him to resist.

"This...what's going on?" The Valley Master was horrified. He couldn't believe that a waste could burst out with such powerful strength.

Xia Qingyue couldn't help but feel a little surprised when she saw Yun Che was able to contend with the Valley Master. However, she quickly regained her composure and continued to fight with the Valley Master.

Yun Che's mind was clear. He knew that the reason he was able to unleash such a powerful force was because he had broken through a bottleneck in his previous cultivation and his strength had greatly increased.

“Master, don’t worry about me. I will help you defeat this old fellow!” Yun Che shouted loudly.

Upon hearing this, Xia Qingyue couldn't help but feel a surge of warmth in her heart. She looked at Yun Che's resolute eyes and knew that he was no longer that useless piece of shit, but a truly powerful being.

“Okay, Yun Che, let’s work hard together!” Xia Qingyue responded loudly.

The two of them joined forces, and their strength increased greatly. Although the Valley Master was powerful, he gradually fell into a disadvantage under the combined strength of the two.

"Damn it! How dare you bully me like this!" The Valley Master roared, and a powerful aura burst out from his body.

His figure suddenly became blurred, moving between the two of them like a phantom. He swung his hands continuously, each strike imbued with immense power.

Even though Yun Che and Xia Qingyue joined forces, they still found it difficult to resist the Valley Master's fierce attack.

“Master, be careful!” Yun Che shouted, moving his body to block Xia Qingyue.

The Valley Master's fist landed heavily on Yun Che's chest. Yun Che felt a powerful force coming from him, and his body flew backwards involuntarily.

“Yun Che!” Xia Qingyue was horrified and rushed forward to support Yun Che.

Yun Che felt a sharp pain in his chest, but he suppressed it without making a sound. He looked up at Xia Qingyue and smiled bitterly, "Master, I'm fine."

Xia Qingyue looked at Yun Che's pale face and couldn't help but feel distressed. She knew that Yun Che was injured to protect her, which made her feel even more moved.

“Yun Che, take a break first. Let me deal with this old fellow.” Xia Qingyue said as she was about to charge towards the Valley Master once again.

However, at this moment, the Valley Master suddenly stopped attacking. He looked at Yun Che and Xia Qingyue, a complex light flashing in his eyes.

"Hmph, you are lucky today. But remember, I will settle this account with you sooner or later!" The Valley Master snorted coldly, moved his body, and disappeared on the spot.

Yun Che and Xia Qingyue watched the Valley Master disappear, and they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. They knew that being able to escape danger today was a blessing in disguise.

"Yun Che, are you okay?" Xia Qingyue asked with concern.

Yun Che shook his head: "Master, I'm fine. I just suffered a minor injury."

Upon hearing this, Xia Qingyue couldn't help but feel even more distressed. She knew Yun Che had been injured to protect her, and this filled her heart with both gratitude and guilt.

“Yun Che, thank you.” Xia Qingyue said in a low voice.

Yun Che felt a surge of warmth in his heart upon hearing this. He looked at Xia Qingyue's gentle eyes, and couldn't help but feel a little lost. He knew that he had fallen deeply in love with this woman.

“Master, you don’t have to be polite with me. Protecting you is my responsibility.” Yun Che responded in a low voice.

The two smiled at each other, their hearts filled with warmth. They knew that after experiencing this life-and-death crisis, their friendship between master and disciple had become even deeper.

In the days that followed, Yun Che continued to cultivate under Xia Qingyue's guidance. His strength continued to improve, and soon reached a new height.

However, Yun Che was not satisfied with this. He knew that if he wanted to become stronger, he had to continue to work hard in his cultivation.

Therefore, Yun Che decided to explore a legendary secret realm. This secret realm hides many precious opportunities and secrets, and he hopes to find a way to break through the bottleneck here.

After Xia Qingyue learned of Yun Che's decision, she felt a little worried. She knew that the secret realm was full of dangers and unknowns, and Yun Che's journey was likely to be dangerous.

“Yun Che, have you really decided to go?” Xia Qingyue asked in a low voice.

Yun Che nodded: "Master, I have made up my mind. I want to become stronger. Only in this way can I better protect you."

Upon hearing this, Xia Qingyue couldn't help but feel touched. She knew Yun Che had decided to go on this adventure just to protect her, and this filled her heart with warmth and gratitude.

“Yun Che, you must be careful. The secret realm is full of dangers and unknowns, you must protect yourself.” Xia Qingyue warned in a low voice.

Yun Che nodded: "Master, don't worry. I will definitely be careful."

After saying this, Yun Che turned and left. His back gradually receded in Xia Qingyue's eyes until it vanished.

Yun Che embarked on a journey to the secret realm alone. He was filled with anticipation and nervousness, not knowing what kind of dangers and challenges he would encounter on this expedition.

After several days of traveling, Yun Che finally arrived at the entrance to the secret realm. He saw a dense forest ahead, shrouded in thick fog, making it difficult to see the road ahead.

Yun Che took a deep breath and then walked into the forest. He moved forward cautiously, fearing to alert the wild beasts in the forest.

However, at this moment, a huge beast suddenly rushed out from the woods. Its eyes flashed green light, and it opened its bloody mouth and pounced towards Yun Che.

Yun Che was startled and quickly dodged. He gathered his spiritual energy and prepared to fight the beast.

However, the beast was extremely powerful, and after Yun Che fought with it for several rounds, he gradually fell into a disadvantage.

“Damn it! This beast is so powerful!” Yun Che cursed inwardly before gathering his spiritual energy once again and launching an attack towards the beast.

At this moment, a flash of sword light suddenly flashed through the woods. A figure appeared before Yun Che like a ghost, and with a swing of the longsword in his hand, he cut the beast in two.

Yun Che looked at this figure and couldn't help but feel a little surprised. He didn't expect to meet someone else in this secret realm.

"Who are you? Why are you here?" Yun Che asked warily.

The figure turned around, revealing a beautiful face. She looked at Yun Che and smiled faintly, "My name is Murong Xue. I came here to explore. I happened to see you being chased by this beast, so I came to your aid."

Upon hearing this, Yun Che couldn't help but feel a sense of gratitude in his heart: "Thank you, Murong Xue. My name is Yun Che, and I'm here to explore as well."

Murong Xue nodded: "Since we are all here to explore, why don't we act together? This way we can look after each other."

Yun Che thought about it and felt that Murong Xue's suggestion was a good one. So, the two of them set out together, heading deep into the secret realm.

In the days that followed, Yun Che and Murong Xue experienced many dangers and challenges together. They encountered all kinds of ferocious beasts and treacherous traps, but relying on each other's strength and wisdom, they successfully overcame these difficulties one by one.

During the adventure, Yun Che also made many friends. Some of them were powerful warriors, some were doctors proficient in medicine, and some were people with mysterious abilities.

The addition of these friends greatly improved Yun Che's strength. They fought together, practiced together, and shared their experiences and insights.

Deep in the secret realm, Yun Che and Murong Xue finally found a hidden cave. A faint light emanated from the cave, clearly hiding some mysterious power.

“Is this the location of the legendary secret treasure?” Yun Che looked at the cave and couldn’t help but feel excited.

Murong Xue nodded: "It should be. Let's go in."

As they spoke, the two entered the cave. The interior was spacious and bright, its walls inlaid with precious gems and crystals. In the center sat a massive treasure chest, gleaming with a dazzling light.

Yun Che and Murong Xue walked over to the treasure chest, their hearts filled with anticipation. They knew that this treasure chest must contain precious opportunities and secrets.

Yun Che took a deep breath, then reached out and opened the treasure chest. Inside was an ancient book and a golden pill.

“What is this?” Yun Che looked at the books and pills, feeling somewhat puzzled.

Murong Xue walked over to the treasure chest, carefully examined the book and pill, and then said, "This book is an ancient cultivation method called 'Tian Yan Shen Jue'. And this pill is a Nine Revolutions Golden Pill that can improve your cultivation."

Yun Che couldn't help but feel overjoyed when he heard this. He had never expected that he would be able to find such a precious opportunity in this secret realm.

“Murong Xue, thank you. It’s all thanks to you that we were able to find this secret treasure.” Yun Che said gratefully.

Murong Xue smiled and shook her head: "You're welcome. We are friends, so it's only natural for us to help each other."
