Chapter 5220: AccompanyYet when he drew near and saw she still hadn’t awakened, his brow furrowed slightly. He called out, “Little Qi?” Given her usual vigilance, she shouldn’t have failed to notice his approach.
He came to her side and saw she seemed to have fallen into a deep sleep, unresponsive to his calls. But after checking her pulse, he found nothing amiss. So he sat down beside her, letting her rest her head on his shoulder, and then took out his cloak to cover her.
As dawn broke and rays of sunlight filtered through the forest canopy, Yue’er’s eyelashes fluttered lightly. Slowly opening her eyes, she found herself covered by a man’s cloak.
Startled, she sat up straight and saw Xiao Junyan opening his eyes in response to her movement.
“Big Brother Xiao? Is it you?” She looked at him, slightly startled and somewhat surprised.
“Are you alright?” Xiao Junyan asked.
His question made her recall last night’s events. She rubbed her temples, handing the cloak back to him as she said, “I think I had a nightmare.”
She couldn’t quite tell if last night had been merely a dream of hers, or if those events had truly occurred. Waking this morning, she felt only a dull ache in her head and a lingering dizziness.
“How did you get here?” she asked, glancing at him before scanning the surroundings. “Did you notice anything unusual about this place?”
“I found my way here just before dawn. When I arrived, you were the only one here.”
His voice trailed off as he continued, “Strangely enough, when I entered this place, I seemed to be enveloped in a thick, white mist. I walked for a long time before breaking through it. Around midnight last night, it felt like a chilling wind stirred in this area, but by the time I came to investigate, it had vanished without a trace.”
Hearing this, Yue’er’s eyes flickered slightly, her gaze drifting off as if lost in thought.
Noticing her dazed expression, Xiao Junyan said, “Don’t worry. I’ll protect you. I won’t let you face any danger.”
Yue’er lifted her head to meet his gaze, a faint smile touching her lips. “Mhm, I’m fine.” She gathered her thoughts before continuing, “Big Brother Xiao, this place feels unusual. It seems more dangerous than any other place I’ve been before.”
Xiao Junyan nodded. “This place was discovered not long ago, and no one has ventured in yet. The dangers here are unknown. Although several families have sent quite a few people in, I doubt they’ll last even half a month inside.”
“Let’s go! We’ll check ahead.” Xiao Junyan gestured, leading her forward together.
Meanwhile, outside the secret realm, the Patriarchs of several families stared in astonishment at those who had appeared in their clan teleportation arrays after just a single day.
“What happened? How did you get out?” The Patriarch of the Chen family asked the disgraced-looking group.
In less than a day, they were a disheveled mess—filthy, disheveled, and reeking. Had they not personally escorted them to the secret realm’s entrance yesterday, it would have been impossible to believe they’d become this wretched in such a short time.
“Patriarch, the hidden dangers within that secret realm were beyond our defenses. Even with our strength, we could barely move an inch inside. Had we not shattered our teleportation jade to escape, we would likely have perished there,” a man stated solemnly.
