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

Chapter 340: Emotional Choice

In that dazzling light, Yun Che and You Yue seemed to be swept into a bizarre world. Every corner of the palace was illuminated by this sudden light, and even the air was filled with a mysterious and solemn atmosphere.

Yun Che tightly grasped You Yue's hand, their gazes fixed on the center of the light. They knew that this wasn't just the activation of the formation, but also a turning point in their fate.

"Yun Che, no matter what happens, I will be by your side." You Yue's voice was gentle yet firm. Her words were like a warm current that warmed Yun Che's heart.

Yun Che turned to look at Youyue, a complex emotion flashing in his eyes. He was grateful for Youyue's companionship, but felt even more guilty that he couldn't give her complete love.

“Youyue, I…” Yun Che hesitated to speak. He didn’t know how to start without hurting the woman who loved him so deeply.

You Yue seemed to see through Yun Che's thoughts. She shook her head gently and interrupted him, "Yun Che, you don't have to say anything. I know you have Qing Lian in your heart, and I won't force you to forget her. But please believe that I will always be here, silently supporting you and accompanying you."

A warm feeling welled up in Yun Che's heart, and at the same time, it also strengthened his resolve. He couldn't let Youyue continue to sacrifice silently like this. He had to make a decision.

At this moment, a strong vibration suddenly came from the center of the light, and then a huge vortex appeared before them. In the vortex, countless lights and shadows seemed to intertwine, releasing a heart-pounding power.

“This is…” Yun Che and You Yue both widened their eyes. They had never seen such a bizarre sight before.

“It seems that this is the true power of the formation.” Yun Che took a deep breath, his eyes gleaming with determination. “Youyue, let’s go in together. No matter what’s inside, we must face it together.”

Youyue nodded, no fear in her eyes. She tightly grasped Yun Che's hand, and together they stepped into the massive vortex.

Inside the vortex was a space filled with fantasy. There were vibrant lights and a terrifying darkness. Yun Che and You Yue felt as if they were in a dream; everything seemed unreal.

They move forward cautiously, each step filled with uncertainty and danger. But no matter what difficulties they encounter, they will stick together and face them together.

Suddenly, a strong spiritual power surged, and then a huge figure appeared before them. It was a powerful figure in a black robe, with a cold light flashing in his eyes, as if he wanted to swallow the whole world.

"Who are you? How dare you trespass into my territory!" The black-robed strong man said coldly. His voice was like ice, making people shudder.

Yun Che and You Yue exchanged a glance, each seeing determination and courage in the other's eyes. They knew that this powerful black-robed figure was the target of their journey and the enemy they must defeat.

“We are here to search for treasure!” Yun Che said loudly, his voice filled with confidence and strength. “If you are the powerful one guarding the treasure, then please teach me!”

The black-robed warrior sneered and, with a flash of his body, charged towards Yun Che and You Yue. His speed was incredibly fast, like a streak of black lightning, making it impossible to grasp his movements.

Yun Che and You Yue quickly deployed their bodies and engaged in a fierce battle with the black-robed warrior. Their figures shuttled through space, and every collision released a powerful wave of power.

Yun Che brandished the longsword in his hand, each strike imbued with a fierce sword energy. Relying on his superb swordsmanship and powerful spiritual energy, he engaged the black-robed warrior in a close fight.

Youyue, on the other hand, unleashed her unique body movements and spiritual power, her figure like a ghost, unpredictable. Each of her attacks was precise and deadly, causing considerable trouble for the black-robed warrior.

However, the black-robed warrior was a formidable foe after all. His spiritual power was profound, and his attacks were ferocious, causing both Yun Che and You Yue to feel immense pressure.

During a fierce collision, Yun Che was struck by a palm strike from the black-robed expert, sending him flying backwards and slamming heavily into a wall. A trace of blood oozed from the corner of his mouth, clearly indicating considerable damage.

"Yun Che!" You Yue exclaimed. She rushed forward and helped Yun Che up.

Yun Che wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his eyes gleaming with an unyielding light: "I'm fine, we can still continue fighting!"

Youyue looked at Yun Che's determined eyes, and a warm feeling welled up in her heart. She knew that no matter what difficulties he encountered, Yun Che would face them bravely, which was one of the reasons why she loved him so deeply.

"Okay, let's fight together!" Youyue said loudly, her voice full of strength and determination.

The two men spread their bodies again and started an even more intense battle with the black-robed strongman. This time, they no longer fought alone, but cooperated with each other to jointly deal with the black-robed strongman's attacks.

Yun Che and You Yue's coordination was unparalleled, their attacks and defenses perfectly timed. With their combined efforts, the black-robed warrior gradually fell into a passive position.

Finally, in a crucial attack, Yun Che and You Yue simultaneously unleashed their strength, severely damaging the black-robed warrior. The black-robed warrior let out a scream and stumbled back a few steps.

"You...you dare to hurt me!" The black-robed strong man's eyes were wide open, and his voice was full of anger and unwillingness.

Yun Che and You Yue exchanged a glance, both smiling triumphantly. They knew they had defeated this formidable enemy and were getting closer and closer to the treasure.

However, just as they were about to move forward, the black-robed warrior suddenly sneered, "Hmph, do you think you've won just like that? Let me tell you, the real test is yet to come!"

Yun Che and You Yue were startled. They knew the black-robed expert's words were not groundless. They had to be even more cautious in order to face the next challenge.

At this moment, a strong spiritual power fluctuation came again. This time, the source of the fluctuation was not the black-robed strong man, but the ground beneath their feet.

Yun Che and You Yue quickly looked up, only to see a massive crack spreading across the ground. Within the crack, countless lights and shadows seemed to intertwine, releasing a terrifying power.

“Oh no, this is…” Yun Che was shocked. He realized that this might be another variation of the formation.

Youyue also sensed the danger. She quickly grabbed Yun Che's hand, and the two of them fled in the opposite direction of the crack.

However, the cracks spread at an extremely fast speed, as if they were about to swallow everything. Yun Che and You Yue ran as fast as they could, but they were still unable to escape the pursuit of the cracks.

Just as they were about to be swallowed by the crack, Yun Che suddenly remembered something. He abruptly stopped and turned to look at the black-robed expert: "Do you... do you know how to break this formation?"

The black-robed warrior looked at the desperate expressions of Yun Che and You Yue, who were about to be swallowed by the crack, and a smug smile appeared on his face: "Humph, of course I know. But do you think I will tell you?"

Yun Che's heart sank, but he didn't give up. He took a deep breath and said loudly, "Black-robed warrior, as long as you tell us how to break this formation, we will let you live!"

The black-robed warrior sneered, "Hmph, do you think I'll believe your lies? I'm telling you, even if you kill me, I won't tell you how to crack it!"

Yun Che looked at the black-robed warrior's stubborn defiance, and a nameless fire surged within him. He swung his sword fiercely towards the black-robed warrior, and a sharp sword energy instantly pierced the sky.

The black-robed warrior snorted coldly and dodged Yun Che's attack with a flash of his body. However, he did not continue to pursue Yun Che and You Yue. Instead, he stood there and watched the crack gradually swallow them.

Yun Che and You Yue were filled with despair, knowing that this time they might not be able to escape. However, at this moment, a familiar voice suddenly rang in their ears: "Yun Che, You Yue, don't be afraid, I'm here to save you!"

Yun Che and You Yue were startled. They looked up and saw a familiar figure flying towards them. It was Qing Lian!

Qinglian's figure danced in the air like a light feather. In her hand, she held a gleaming sword, the tip of which pointed directly at the center of the crack.

"Qinglian!" Yun Che and Youyue both revealed expressions of surprise. They had not expected that Qinglian would appear to save them at this critical moment.

Qinglian said nothing more. In a flash, she arrived beside Yun Che and Youyue. She held their hands tightly and injected a powerful spiritual energy into their bodies.

With Qinglian's help, Yun Che and Youyue felt their strength instantly restored. Looking at Qinglian's resolute eyes, they felt a surge of warmth in their hearts.

“Qinglian, thank you!” Yun Che said gratefully.

Qinglian smiled slightly: "You're welcome, we are friends. Now, let's break this formation together!"

Yun Che and You Yue nodded. They followed Qing Lian closely and flew towards the center of the crack together.

The longsword in Qinglian's hand flashed with dazzling light. She swung the sword, carving complex runes in the cracks. These runes seemed to have life, interweaving in the air to form a huge net, gradually sealing the cracks.

Yun Che and You Yue watched Qing Lian's skillful and precise manipulations, their hearts filled with admiration. They knew that Qing Lian was not only a powerful warrior, but also a wise and intelligent person.

Thanks to Qinglian's efforts, the cracks were finally completely sealed. Yun Che and Youyue breathed a sigh of relief as they watched the ground return to calm. They knew that their escape from danger this time was entirely due to Qinglian's timely appearance and heroic rescue.

"Qinglian, thank you for saving us." Youyue said gratefully.

Qinglian smiled slightly: "You're welcome, we are friends. Besides, I can't let you two be in danger because of me."

Yun Che watched Qinglian and Youyue smile at each other, a complex wave of emotions welling up in his heart. He knew that he could never forget Qinglian, and Youyue also loved him deeply. He had to make a choice to be worthy of these two women who loved him so deeply.

However, at this critical moment, Yun Che did not rush to make a decision. He took a deep breath, looked at Qinglian and Youyue, and said, "The three of us have gone through so many dangers and difficulties together and have become inseparable friends. No matter what happens in the future, I will cherish our friendship and feelings."

Qinglian and Youyue both nodded. They knew Yun Che's words were not empty words. The friendship and affection between them had transcended life and death and personal interests, becoming their most precious treasure.

At this moment, a strong spiritual power fluctuation came again. This time, the source of the fluctuation did not come from the ground or the black-robed strongman, but from the sky above their heads.

Yun Che, Qing Lian, and You Yue all looked up, only to see a huge beam of light gathering in the sky. That light seemed to contain infinite power and wisdom, inspiring awe.
