Chapter 51: A Surprising Slash
Su Yu looked at Han Ting's anxious expression and stopped teasing her.
"The Yao Beast is dead, so how could it chase us? Alright, enough playing around, let's go back."
Soon, the two arrived at the entrance of the Secret Realm. Han Ting saw that the entrance looked as if a great battle had taken place, with several corpses lying there.
Han Ting also realized what had happened.
"Uncle Yu, it seems we are lucky. This Yao Beast should have been guarding this entrance a while ago. Originally, we wouldn't have been able to get out, but now that it's gone, perhaps it was lured away by something."
"Let's take this chance and hurry out."
Su Yu smiled.
"It seems our luck is quite good."
"That goes without saying. With me here, our luck is bound to be good."
"Let's hurry and leave. If that Yao Beast comes back later, we won't be able to get out."
Su Yu then took Han Ting out of the Secret Realm. Once they arrived outside, Han Ting instantly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Finally, we're safe. I didn't expect there to be a Late Stage Golden Core Yao Beast. It's a good thing we didn't encounter it."
"And the harvest this time is just too much. It's endless; we simply can't spend it all."
Meanwhile, inside the Secret Realm, others had also noticed that the Yao Beast was no longer guarding the entrance.
Soon, people began emerging from the Secret Realm one after another, all wearing expressions of having narrowly escaped death.
"Great, we made it out! This Secret Realm is truly terrifying. Seeing that Yao Beast guarding the entrance, I almost thought my life would end inside this Secret Realm."
"Fortunately, the Yao Beast was lured away by something, giving us an opportunity."
Miao Ying, who was still inside the Secret Realm, also learned the news that the Yao Beast was temporarily not at the entrance. She hurriedly took the injured Uncle Zhang and ran out from the woods where they were hiding, rushing toward the exit of the Secret Realm.
But just as she passed through a patch of jungle, she stopped in her tracks, looking at the scene before her with a shocked expression.
Because the Yao Beast had appeared before them once again. Miao Ying looked at the scene before her, thinking, "It's over, everything is over. I didn't expect this Yao Beast to actually appear here."
"It seems heaven is determined to end us." A sense of immense regret flooded her heart. Why did she have to come to this Secret Realm? If she hadn't come, she wouldn't be dying here. Why was she so unlucky? She had already encountered the Yao Beast once, and now she had encountered it again.
It seemed this was fate. Just as she was preparing to accept death, Uncle Zhang spoke up:
"Young Miss, this Yao Beast seems a bit off. Don't you see that it hasn't moved at all? If it were like before, we would have already been killed by the Yao Beast by now, but it is completely motionless."
Upon hearing Uncle Zhang's words, Miao Ying also noticed the situation he was talking about.
That's right. Ever since she discovered the Yao Beast, it hadn't moved at all.
Moreover, after carefully probing it, the Yao Beast seemed to have neither breath nor heartbeat. At this moment, Miao Ying felt very puzzled.
Could it be?
Miao Ying and Uncle Zhang exchanged a glance.
Afterward, Miao Ying slowly walked toward the Yao Beast, but the Yao Beast still didn't move. Miao Ying walked up to the Yao Beast, looking at the massive, ferocious-looking creature.
She swallowed hard, gathered her courage, and extended her finger to touch the Yao Beast.
Instantly, the Yao Beast before her turned into countless fragments and fell to the ground.
Miao Ying was instantly frightened and collapsed to the ground.
After regaining her composure, Miao Ying stood up. At this moment, both she and Uncle Zhang were so shocked by the state of the Yao Beast that they couldn't speak.
This Yao Beast was actually dead, and it had died so silently. Moreover, the Yao Beast had been slashed into countless pieces yet still maintained its original shape.
It was precisely because of this that they were even more shocked. The speed of this slash was so fast that the Yao Beast had been sliced into countless pieces before it could even react, which was why it could maintain its original form.
There was actually an existence with such strength in this Secret Realm. To be able to unleash this kind of attack against the Yao Beast meant that their strength was already beyond what the Yao Beast could comprehend.
To be able to instantly kill even a Late Stage Golden Core Yao Beast—this sent a chill down both of their spines.
"Let's hurry and leave this Secret Realm, Young Miss. This Secret Realm is too strange; I'm afraid something else might happen later."
Hearing this, Miao Ying couldn't be bothered with the corpse of the Yao Beast anymore.
She took Uncle Zhang and flew rapidly toward the exit.
Soon, the two were out of the Secret Realm, and they finally let out a sigh of relief.
They had finally left this godforsaken place. Afterward, seeing that everyone around them also had expressions of having narrowly escaped death and wanting to never return to this place, Miao Ying felt a bit more balanced inside.
However, she also saw that Han Ting was outside. But she saw that Han Ting had more of a happy expression, looking as if she had gained quite a lot.
Han Ting also noticed the disheveled Miao Ying and her companion, and she made a face at Miao Ying.
Han Ting had originally thought that if Miao Ying saw her make such a gesture, she would come over to mock her again.
But unexpectedly, this time Miao Ying just took one look at Han Ting and left with Uncle Zhang without saying a word.
After all, the Secret Realm had left a deep psychological impact on her, and she didn't want Han Ting to know about her miserable experience inside.
Han Ting found it incredible to see Miao Ying fly away without paying her any mind. She actually ignored her; that wasn't like her personality at all. In the past, she would have definitely come up and made a few sarcastic remarks.
Su Yu watched Miao Ying fly away and knew that the experience in the Secret Realm had dealt her a major blow.
"Alright, don't think too much about it. Let's hurry back as well."
On the way back, Han Ting was full of joy; the harvest from the Secret Realm this time was truly huge.
"Uncle Yu, let's hurry and plant these flowers and plants in your courtyard."
Soon, the two returned to the Profound Heaven Sect and arrived at Su Yu's courtyard. Han Ting immediately took out those beautiful Spiritual Plants and flowers.
"Quick, Uncle Yu, let's plant these." With Han Ting's help, the two quickly finished planting these items.
The more Han Ting looked at Su Yu's courtyard, the more she liked it; it was just too beautiful.
Su Yu's courtyard was the most beautiful courtyard she had ever seen.
"Uncle Yu, help me build a house sometime in the future, okay? The style of your house and courtyard is just too beautiful."
"If there's an opportunity in the future, I will help you design one."
"Yay, great! In the future, this Young Miss's house will be the second most beautiful house in the Profound Heaven Sect."
Afterward, Han Ting took a pile of resources and returned to her own home.
At this time, Han Shi had also come out of seclusion. Han Shi saw Han Ting carrying a large bag of resources.
"Tingting, I heard from your mother that you asked Brother Su to accompany you to the Secret Realm. Seeing your happy face and this pile of resources, it seems you had a very fruitful harvest."
"You guessed right, Dad. This trip to the Secret Realm was so interesting."
Han Ting then told Han Shi about what happened in the Secret Realm. When she spoke about when they were being robbed, she mentioned that Su Yu used the Sword Drawing Technique to defeat the robbers.
Han Shi smiled and said, "We owe it all to Brother Su being there."
Hearing that a Late Stage Golden Core Yao Beast had appeared in the Secret Realm, Han Shi's heart tightened.
"Fortunately, this Young Miss had good luck at the time; we ran out before we even saw the Yao Beast."
Han Shi laughed aloud, "Tingting, your luck is truly good."
And just as there was laughter and joy on this side, the two on Ye Lin's side were not having such a good time.
