Abyss Walker

Chapter 33 Striving for Excellence

Ye Yunxi closed her eyes tightly, concentrated her mind, and tried her best to mobilize the little spiritual energy left in her body, which was almost exhausted. That weak spiritual energy was like a candle in the wind, which could be extinguished at any time, but she still tried her best to control it, making it flow out of her meridians little by little.

As time went on, her breathing became more and more rapid, and her face grew paler and paler, but the spiritual light emanating from her hands gradually became brighter.

"I did it, Brother Muhan..." Before she could finish speaking, she instantly lost consciousness. Yun Muhan immediately pulled Ye Yunxi into his arms.

"You mastered it so quickly! Not only did you not need my guidance, but you're even a few points faster than Xi Ling. You're another little prodigy." Yun Muhan gently hugged Ye Yunxi and exclaimed.

Ten hours later...

Ye Yunxi slowly opened her eyes and saw that she was lying on a large bed, but she didn't see Yun Muhan. She anxiously searched for him: "Brother Muhan, where are you?"

"Don't scare Yunxi, Yunxi is timid." Ye Yunxi was frightened. She had never left Yun Muhan's side, but when she opened her eyes, she didn't see Yun Muhan's figure.

Yun Muhan slowly walked into the room: "Hey, you, how could you..." Ye Yunxi quickly ran to Yun Muhan's side and hugged him tightly with her small hands.

Yun Muhan looked at Ye Yunxi with a face full of doting affection: "Are you hungry? Come on, Brother Muhan will take Sister Yunxi to eat."

"No, Yunxi, don't leave Brother Muhan, not even for a moment." Ye Yunxi's small hands tightly wrapped around Yun Muhan's slender waist.

"I won't leave, I won't leave. How about Brother Mu Han carries Sister Yun tide to eat?"

"Okay, Yunxi will never leave Brother Muhan again, and Brother Muhan is not allowed to leave Yunxi either." Ye Yunxi's voice was tinged with grievance, as if Yun Muhan had cruelly abandoned her.

Yun Muhan picked up Ye Yunxi, and the two of them vanished from their spot in an instant. They reappeared in front of a stone table, which was laden with all sorts of delicious food.

"Wow, did Brother Mu Han make all of this? It looks so delicious and smells so good!"

"Eat up, it's all made by Brother Mu Han himself. He's made our little Yunxi so thin these past few days." Yun Mu Han immediately picked up a chicken leg and handed it to Ye Yunxi.

"I knew Brother Muhan was the best. When I grow up, I will definitely marry Brother Muhan."

"What nonsense are you talking about? Yunxi's future is far more than what we have now. When Yunxi becomes powerful, even those guys from the God Realm will only be worthy of kneeling at Yunxi's feet."

"Just because you're strong enough, does that mean everyone will kneel at Yunxi's feet?" Ye Yunxi replied earnestly while eating a chicken leg.

"Of course, as long as you have power, you can make them submit."

"Submit? What does it mean for Brother Mu Han to submit?"

"Whoever submits to Yunxi, Yunxi can make him do anything."

"Then I need to become stronger quickly so that Brother Mu Han will submit to Yun tide."

Seeing Ye Yunxi's eagerness to become stronger, Yun Muhan couldn't help but tease her, "Yunxi, are you in such a hurry to become stronger because you want to grow up quickly so you can realize your grand plan to marry Brother Muhan?"

Ye Yunxi's face flushed bright red instantly, and she stammered in rebuttal, "N-no, that's not it! I just want to become stronger so I can protect Brother Mu Han!"

Yun Muhan laughed heartily and ruffled Ye Yunxi's hair: "Alright, alright, our little Yunxi is the best. But, protecting me is something I'll leave to Brother Muhan. Yunxi, you just need to eat and drink well and grow up quickly."

Ye Yunxi pouted and glared at Yun Muhan with dissatisfaction: "Brother Muhan, you just know how to make fun of me. I'm ignoring you!" With that, she turned her head away and pretended to be angry.

Seeing this, Yun Muhan quickly coaxed, "Don't be angry, Yun tide. Your brother Muhan has prepared a little surprise for you, I promise you'll like it."

Ye Yunxi's curiosity was piqued. She turned around, her eyes sparkling: "What surprise?"

Yun Muhan smiled mysteriously and took out a bunch of colorful flowers formed by magic from behind his back: "Look, these are flowers that your brother Muhan made for you with magic. They are one of a kind in the world!"

Ye Yunxi's eyes lit up instantly. She took the bouquet and exclaimed in surprise, "Wow, so beautiful! Brother Mu Han, you're the best!"

Seeing her happy expression, Yun Muhan felt a warmth in his heart: "As long as Yunxi is happy, Brother Muhan will try different ways to please Yunxi every day, okay?"

Ye Yunxi hugged the bouquet tightly, then suddenly leaned close to Yun Muhan and kissed him on the cheek: "This is a reward for Brother Muhan!"

Yun Muhan was taken aback for a moment, then a doting smile appeared on his face: "You little rascal, you're really impossible to handle. Alright, let's continue cultivating, don't let these little sweet moments waste our time."

Ye Yunxi nodded, a happy smile on her face, and continued to immerse herself in cultivation with Yun Muhan.

Yun Muhan's gaze was resolute. He knew the path of cultivation was fraught with unknowns and challenges, but his determination had never been so firm. He not only wanted to improve his own strength, but also ensure Ye Yunxi's safety. Only by becoming stronger could he gain a foothold on this dangerous continent.

Several days later...

The two trained even more diligently. Ye Yunxi's talent gradually became apparent, and her cultivation improved rapidly. This made Yun Muhan both gratified and somewhat worried. He was concerned that Ye Yunxi might neglect the consolidation of her foundation due to her rapid progress.
