Heading to the Tianyuan Realm

In the two years since Yi Yun left Yunhuang, he has experienced too much, especially the painful experiences of the past few days, which have greatly changed his state of Yi Yun.

Returning to Yunhuang and encountering Su Jie again felt like everything had returned to square one, leaving Yi Yun with a myriad of emotions.

"Kid, you haven't been in Yunhuang all this time, have you?"

Su Jie blinked, feeling incredulous. He had been in the secret realm for two years, and now he had run into Yi Yun again!

"I left, but for some reason, I came back." Yi Yun's experiences were truly complicated. "Where is Senior? Why are you still in Yunhuang? Did you go to that secret realm and only just came out?"

When they parted ways in Yunhuang, Yi Yun knew that Su Jie seemed to have gone to seek opportunities.

Hearing Yi Yun's question, Su Jie was a little stunned. He blinked his dark little eyes and stammered for a moment.

However, he quickly recovered, calmly stroking his dirty beard, and said mysteriously, "I did indeed go to a secret realm. This secret realm is extraordinary, with many opportunities! I gained a lot there, but some opportunities were too difficult to obtain. I used all sorts of methods, which is why I was delayed a bit."

Well...

After hearing what Old Man Su said, Yi Yun was stunned for a long time. This old man, with his current appearance, still speaks so arrogantly. No one would believe him!

However, since Su Jie was unwilling to mention the embarrassing things he had encountered in the secret realm, Yi Yun did not press him further.

"Boy, what are you doing in Yunhuang, coming from the Brocade Dragon Guard camp of the Tai'a Divine Kingdom? On a mission?"

Old Man Su sized up Yi Yun. Actually, Yi Yun didn't look very good at this time. He had been locked up in jail for ten days and was now wearing dirty and tattered clothes.

The two of them together were like an old beggar meeting a young beggar.

"It's a long story, but I'm leaving the Tai'a Divine Kingdom."

Yi Yun sighed softly.

"Leave the Tai'a Divine Kingdom? No way..."

Old Man Su was taken aback. Given Yi Yun's current situation, joining the Brocade Dragon Guard and using their resources for cultivation would be the most suitable thing for him. Why did he want to leave the Tai'a Divine Kingdom?

"Huh? How come you... broke through to the Yuan Foundation stage?"

Su Jie found it unbelievable that Yi Yun's cultivation had actually surpassed the Purple Blood realm and broken through to the Foundation Establishment realm in just two years.

The Origin Foundation Realm is a very important realm on a martial artist's path to mastery. It is the foundation of martial arts, and one must not rush into it.

"A breakthrough too quickly, with an unstable foundation, will leave hidden dangers," Su Jie advised Yi Yun. He wanted to say something more, but suddenly, a "gurgle" sounded. It was Su Jie's stomach growling...

Yi Yun was stunned for a moment, looking at Su Jie with disbelief. How could a master like Su Jie have his stomach growling with hunger?

Su Jie blushed. It was all because of that damned secret realm that he had been trapped there for so long. It was also isolated from the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi. Even if a martial artist had cultivated to a very high level, he still needed energy to sustain his life.

In that secret realm, Su Jie's energy only went out and never came in, so he had no way to Bigu. Su Jie was originally a glutton, and in the past two years, he had been so hungry that his eyes were practically glowing green.

While he was in the secret realm, he planned that if he were to come out, the first thing he would do was find a place to have a big meal.

Now everything looked like roasted meat to Old Man Su. He rubbed his stomach, coughed, and said, "The secret realm is fraught with danger, and the vital energy is scarce. I've expended too much energy, and I've run out of the pills I carried with me, so I'm a bit hungry..."

Yi Yun found it amusing but refrained from exposing the old man's true colors. He began gathering firewood and starting a fire.

Half an hour later, the campfire was blazing, crackling and popping as it burned the wood.

A glistening, greasy animal leg was roasting over a fire, and beside it sat an earthenware pot simmering bone broth.

Old Man Su stared longingly at the meat in Yi Yun's hands, rubbed his hands together, and asked, "Is it done yet?"

Old Su had asked this question for who knows how many times. Yi Yun looked at him like an old refugee fleeing famine. Helpless, he drew his dagger, cut off the cooked meat from the outside of the beast's leg, and handed the knife and all to Old Man Su.

Holding the roasted meat, Old Man Su couldn't wait to tear off a piece and stuff it into his mouth.

One bite, and it's crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, with juicy goodness oozing from your mouth—it's so delicious you'll want to swallow your tongue!

Having been trapped for so long, and miraculously surviving, and finally being able to eat this long-awaited roast meat again, Old Man Su was truly moved to tears.

This is life! This is living! I'll never go into any more of those weird secret realms again, not even if you kill me!

Old Man Su shouted in his heart as he wolfed down the meat.

He almost thought he was going to starve to death in the secret realm. Even with his cultivation level, staying in such an environment for decades would gradually weaken him, forcing him to enter a state of slumber.

If no one rescues him, he will never wake up.

"Hey kid, why did you leave the Tai'a Divine Kingdom? Where are you going?"

Old Man Su was focused on finishing the roasted meat in his hand when he casually asked Yi Yun a question.

Yi Yun sighed softly and said, "Nowhere to go..."

"Hmm?" Su Jie was taken aback, realizing that something was amiss. Since Yi Yun had nowhere to go and was forced to leave the Tai'a Divine Kingdom, it was probably because he was being forced into it.

"You were expelled from the Tai'a Divine Kingdom?"

Yi Yun gave a wry smile and said, "You could say that..."

After carefully considering his words, Yi Yun selected some important recent events and told Su Jie.

As for Jiang Xiaorou, Yi Yun was unwilling to say much, because he didn't want to bring up Jiang Xiaorou again. After all, Su Jie was human, and he might also harbor hatred towards the Desolate Clan.

"The Shentu Family? That's a powerful family in the Tianyuan Realm... You've offended the Shentu Family; this is a serious matter..."

Su Jie wiped the grease from his mouth, glanced at the roast meat in his hand, then looked at Yi Yun. His eyes darted around, and he said, "Kid, if you haven't left yet, you might as well come with me."

Su Jie didn't care about Yi Yun's feud with the Shentu Family. He figured that if Yi Yun were with him, he would have barbecue every day.

Eating is the most important thing in life.

"Go with you?" Yi Yun looked up at Su Jie. "Where are you going?"

Su Jie chuckled and said, "Go to the Lin family, find my disciple! Speaking of which, the Lin family is also in the Tianyuan Realm."

Looking for Lin Xin Tong?

Yi Yun's heart stirred, and the image of that figure in flowing white robes, wielding Longsword, involuntarily surfaced in his mind...

He and Lin Xin Tong haven't seen each other for so long...

After finishing his own roasted meat, Su Jie took the remaining roasted meat from Yi Yun's hand, which she hadn't had a chance to eat yet, and began to devour it.

With his mouth full of meat, he mumbled, "The Tai'a Divine Kingdom is my hometown, which is why I brought Xin Tong here for training. Actually, Xin Tong's home is in the Tianyuan Realm."

"You call Tianyuan Realm the Western Regions, but in reality, that's the central continent of humanity, teeming with powerful families and countless experts! Compared to that, this place is just a remote eastern region. How about it, kid? Come with me to the Tianyuan Realm and broaden your horizons?"

Su Jie's words touched Yi Yun's heart.

Tianyuan Realm, the central continent of the human race!

There are more experts there, which also means more opportunities.

He will grow faster and gain broader experience in the Tianyuan Realm.

Of course, they will also get closer and closer to the Shentu Family, and eventually, they will clash with the Shentu Family!

Faced with this behemoth, Yi Yun was no match for it in strength, but he could feel the fighting spirit within him rising faintly.

He vowed to annihilate Shentu Nantian and make him pay tenfold.

The Tianyuan Realm will be both an opportunity and a tremendous challenge for me.

Go to the Tianyuan Realm? The thought made Yi Yun's blood boil.

At this moment, Su Jie said again, "I have a sinecure as a guest elder in the Lin family. I don't have much to do usually, and I don't go back to the Lin family often. However, I've also been quite exhausted from this trip to the secret realm. I might need to recuperate at the Lin family for a while. Why don't you come with me? I'll make do with you and accept you as a disciple."

Su Jie said casually.

Martial arts instructors categorize their disciples into Personal Disciple, ordinary disciples, and nominal disciples. Undoubtedly, nominal disciples are the worst.

Often, being a "nominal disciple" is just a title; they won't actually teach you anything.

This is similar to a martial artist becoming a disciple of Provisional Master.

Yi Yun rolled his eyes. This old guy clearly hadn't intended to actually take him on as a disciple.

Even if you formally accept me as a disciple, I might not actually become one!

Yi Yun thought to himself.

Su Jie saw through Yi Yun's thoughts and grumbled, "You brat, you're getting cocky. I'm a renowned Savage Heaven Master in the Tianyuan Realm. Countless young masters from noble families are eager to become my disciples. You should be grateful I'm taking you as my apprentice!"

Taking Yi Yun as a disciple was a sudden whim of Su Jie's. Why not just take on a disciple casually, and then enjoy delicious food every day?

As for teaching Yi Yun the Savage Heaven Technique, Su Jie hadn't considered it. After all, learning the Savage Heaven Technique was too demanding, and there were only a handful of people with such talent.
