Fantasy: My Wife is the Empress, and Our Cute Kids Wreak Havoc in the Nine Provinces – Chapter 383

Chapter 383: The Mysterious Blood-Colored Cave

Bang!

As they approached the source of the energy fluctuations, Chu Xin and Chu Chen were blocked by a restriction.

This restriction was even stronger than the one outside, and it didn’t seem to be the work of a Martial Emperor.

Chu Xin and Chu Chen tried to attack it several times, but they couldn’t break it.

“I don’t believe it.”

Chu Chen wanted to use his Divine Ability Dharma Idol to force an attack on the restriction, but Chu Xin stopped him.

“Try this.”

Chu Xin waved her hand and took out a blood pool. They had obtained a total of three blood pools, one in Chu Chen’s hand and two in Chu Xin’s.

However, strictly speaking, only this one remained.

Previously, on the battlefields of Blazing Fire City and Wolf City, Chu Xin and Chu Chen had used their Divine Mark power to activate the blood pools to collect the Blood Puppets, consuming all the blood within them, leaving only the golden Divine Mark power.

Chu Xin recalled that in the secret chamber in the Wasteland Province, it was through blood that she had easily entered the secret chamber. The energy fluctuations at this restriction were identical to the blood, so perhaps blood was also needed to open it.

Buzz!

As she guided the blood onto the restriction, the restriction automatically condensed into a portal.

“It worked! Little Brother, let’s go!”

Chu Xin retrieved the blood pool and took a step inside.

“Big Sister is so smart.”

Chu Chen’s face was full of admiration, and he followed her inside.

The Mysterious Martial Emperor who had been knocked away flew back, but it was too late. He could only watch helplessly as Chu Xin and Chu Chen entered the mysterious place.

“Why can they open the restriction and enter?”

The Mysterious Martial Emperor was shocked. Although he was responsible for guarding this entrance, he couldn’t enter. As far as he knew, only the Blood Demon power cultivated by that group of people, or energy containing Blood Demon power, could open this restriction.

But these brats cultivated that powerful golden energy, which had nothing to do with Blood Demon power.

When he returned, Chu Xin had already retrieved the blood pool, so he didn’t see the process of her opening the restriction.

“Commander, the brat with the phoenix mask took out a blood-colored pool, and a wisp of blood flowed from it. The restriction automatically condensed into a passage, allowing them to enter,” a Mysterious Martial Saint stepped forward and said respectfully.

A blood-colored pool?

Blood?

The Mysterious Martial Emperor’s mouth hung open. Could these brats be from that place?

If that were true, wouldn’t it be a case of friendly fire, just as he had said?

Then wouldn’t that mean he had been beaten for nothing?

Thinking of this, he felt a surge of frustration.

“Commander, what should we do now? Should we report this to the Provincial Governor?” a Martial Saint asked tentatively.

Bang!

Before he could finish, he was sent flying by a slap from the Mysterious Martial Emperor, coughing up blood and seriously injured.

The other Martial Saints trembled in fear, not daring to say a word. They knew very well that the commander was furious after being beaten by the brats and was looking for an outlet. Now, saying one wrong word could make them the target of his anger.

The Mysterious Martial Emperor glanced at the Martial Saint who hadn’t gotten up and said coldly, “You idiot, are you suggesting we tell the Provincial Governor that we failed to guard the entrance and let two four or five-year-old brats slip in? The Provincial Governor would skin us alive! Remember this, no one appeared here today, do you understand?”

“Understood, Commander.”

Everyone trembled, not daring to object.

But the commander was right. If the Provincial Governor found out, the commander might only receive some punishment, but they would likely lose their lives.

“Reactivate the restriction.”

The Mysterious Martial Emperor said coldly.

“Yes!”

Everyone responded in unison, and then, under the leadership of the Mysterious Martial Emperor, they all formed hand seals, channeling their energy into a certain spot under the sea.

◈◈◈

Buzz!

A moment later, the shattered restriction reappeared.

After doing all this, the Mysterious Martial Emperor turned to look at the mysterious place, his eyes narrowed, and he gritted his teeth, muttering, “Damn brats, if you’re one of them, I’ll let this beating slide. If not, you’re dead once you’re inside.”

The entrance to that mysterious place wasn’t the only one. Even if they discovered intruders, they wouldn’t be able to suspect him in a short time. If he went to report it himself, the Provincial Governor would definitely kill him.

He took out an ancient-looking token from his Spatial Ring. On one side, the words “Ancient God” were engraved, identical to the Ancient Secret Realm Token that Chu Xin and Chu Chen had snatched from the Cangzhou Provincial Governor.

“Judging by the time, it’s almost time.”

He muttered to himself. As long as he stalled until the Ancient Secret Realm opened, even if the Provincial Governor and the others discovered that the two brats had entered from here, they wouldn’t be able to do anything to him.

After he found an opportunity in the Ancient Secret Realm and broke through to become a Martial God, who on the Nine Provinces Continent could do anything to him when he returned?

He had also obtained this Ancient Secret Realm Token by chance. Originally, he was still hesitant about whether to go. After all, the Ancient Secret Realm not only had prodigies from the lower realm but also likely prodigies from the God Realm. The lower realm wasn’t limited to the Nine Provinces Continent, let alone the God Realm.

This Low-Grade Ancient Secret Realm was only accessible to Martial Emperors. But even if they were both Martial Emperors, he didn’t think the Martial Emperors of the lower realm could defeat the Martial Emperors of the God Realm.

But this time, after being beaten up by that four or five-year-old brat, he was filled with frustration and finally made up his mind to venture into the Ancient Secret Realm.

“Looks like I need to find two helpers,” he put the Ancient Secret Realm Token back into his Spatial Ring and muttered to himself.

According to the information passed down from the token, one Ancient Secret Realm Token could allow three people to enter the Ancient Secret Realm, which meant he could bring two people with him.

Choosing helpers wasn’t a technical task. He couldn’t choose cultivators whose strength far exceeded his own, otherwise, they might turn against him once inside. He also couldn’t choose those who were too weak, as they would be of no help and might even drag him down.

“Who should I choose?”

He frowned, lost in thought.

Meanwhile, after passing through the restriction passage, Chu Xin and Chu Chen appeared in a mysterious cave.

“Where is this?”

Chu Chen blinked his big eyes, looking around in confusion.

The stone walls were blood-red, and the liquid flowing underground was also blood-red, with an extremely strong aura of coldness and evil. The path beneath their feet was only wide enough for one person to walk alone, making it impossible for even Chu Xin and Chu Chen to walk side by side.

“I don’t know, let’s take a look.”

Chu Xin shook her head. She didn’t know where this place was either. The cold and evil aura made her very uncomfortable, and her little brows furrowed.

“Big Sister, this place doesn’t look like it has any treasures.”

Chu Chen followed Chu Xin, muttering softly.

Everything here was blood-red, and the constant release of the cold and evil aura made him dislike it.

“Let’s go deeper and see.”

Chu Xin also felt that such a place was unlikely to have treasures, but since they were already here, they naturally had to explore it carefully. Unlike Chu Chen, who liked to collect treasures, she enjoyed the process of exploring for them.

“Okay!”

Chu Chen nodded and followed closely behind Chu Xin.

“Huh? There are people? And they’re wearing blood robes.”

As the siblings navigated the winding blood-colored cave, almost getting lost, Chu Xin suddenly stopped, her voice filled with surprise.
