Chapter 42 Yue Mingluan's Secret Revealed
After the elder finished speaking, the hall erupted into excited chatter as the disciples discussed the upcoming adventure.
"Did you hear that? We have a chance to become disciples of top sects in the Canglian Dynasty!" one disciple exclaimed.
"I can't believe we get to go on a secret realm adventure with the top three sects in the Wukang Kingdom. This is going to be amazing," another said with excitement.
"We have to work hard and collect as many beast cores as we can. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity, and I don't want to miss out," a third disciple said, determined.
'So this could be the protagonist chance where he will get many opportunities' Wang Chen thought in his heart as he looked at Yue Jang.
'System show me the status of Yue Jang with chances as well.' Wang Chen said.

Chances:
(1) Yue Jang and Yideng stumbled upon a patch of Blue Cloud Grass, a rare herb that is ranked at 6th order and could greatly enhance his cultivation. The herb was hidden in a secluded area deep in the secret realm, but with the help of Yideng's extensive knowledge of the terrain, they were able to locate it.
(2) In another instance, Yue Jang stumbled upon a Purple Soul Stone - a fourth-order stone that can enhance spiritual power and help with soul cultivation. The stone was hidden in a remote corner of the secret realm, and Yideng had provided him with the knowledge of where to look for such rare stones. With Yideng's guidance, Yue Jang was able to locate the stone and add it to his collection of treasures.
(3) During his exploration of the secret realm, Yue Jang stumbled upon a magnificent third-order artifact, the Spirit Gathering Flag. With the help of Yideng, he was able to understand the artifact's true potential and harness its ability to collect spiritual energy and store it for later use.
(4) And finally, after searching for weeks, Yue Jang stumbled upon an ancient ruin, hidden away in a corner of the secret realm. He discovered a sealed room deep inside the ruins, which was protected by powerful formations and spells. Yideng, in his soul form, had used all of his remaining soul power to help break the seal on the room. Inside, Yue Jang found an Emperor Inheritance. ]
"Damn, I want Yideng as a treasure hunter as well now," Wang Chen muttered as saliva dripped from his mouth after seeing the chances that Yue Jang had.
"Huh? Did he just say my name?" Yideng thought to himself. "Nah, it's impossible. He must be dreaming of the resources he'll get if he's selected as a disciple by the elders from the top sects of the Canglian Dynasty. But his dream will never come true. Hahaha." Yideng already knew that Yue Jang would send his followers to deal with Wang Chen and believed that Wang Chen was ignorant to dream of becoming a disciple there.
"What are you blabbering?" Yue Jang asked Yideng through their telepathic communication as he heard him laughing.
'Nothing.' Yideng said.
'Wait a minute the inheritance sounds very similar?' Wang Chen thought as he saw the fourth chance of Yue Jang.
'Is it related to the Thief Celestial Technique that I'm practicing now?' Wang Chen contemplated his thoughts and came to this conclusion as he had previously intercepted the chance where Yue Jang would have obtained this technique.
'Forget it, I'll know when the time comes,' Wang Chen thought but was cut off by a loud voice.
"Wang Chen, you bastard! Because of you..." Yue Mingluan approached Yue Jang, his voice high-pitched and resembling that of a woman.
"Why are you screaming like a woman? Have you lost your manhood?" Wang Chen taunted with a smirk.
Yue Mingluan's face turned red with anger and he unsheathed his sword from his scabbard.
"Shut up, you bastards! Can't you stay silent when your elder is talking?" the Guardian Elder said out loud as he looked at Wang Chen and Yue Mingluan.
"Why does that fool always have to shout every time he sees Wang Chen?" The Guardian Elder muttered to himself, exasperated by Yue Mingluan's behavior.
*Sigh*
"Make your preparations, we will be leaving for the hidden realm in one hour," the elder said before leaving through the gate.
"Brother Wang, let's go. We will be going with my grandpa. Why did that Yue Mingluan yell at you this time?" Su Chen inquired, confident that Yue Mingluan wouldn't make a scene since he had lost to Wang Chen and wouldn't act inappropriately during an important announcement by the elder.
"Brother Su, it's like this…" Wang Chen twisted the story a 'little' bit and told him about the technique.
"What? Yue Mingluan is a eunuch!" Su Chen exclaimed after hearing the story Wang Chen had fabricated.
As soon as Su Chen's words echoed through the area, it attracted the attention of many people present. They all turned to look at Yue Mingluan, who was the subject of the conversation.
Yue Mingluan was caught off guard and panicked as he never expected his secret to be revealed in public. When he noticed that many pairs of eyes were looking at him, he lowered his head in shame, trying to dodge everyone's gaze.
Yue Mingluan's reaction was strange, and he didn't refute what Su Chen had said. This abnormal behavior caused all the disciples who heard Su Chen's words to believe that they were true. They all looked at Yue Mingluan with a mix of curiosity and surprise, wondering how such a thing was possible.
Yue Jang, the elder brother of Yue Mingluan, who was one of Yue Mingluan's closest friends and colleagues as well, felt a knot in his stomach as he watched his brother's reaction. He couldn't help but ask, "Brother Mingluan, what Su Chen said...is it true?"
Yue Mingluan remained silent, confirming Yue Jang's suspicions that what Su Chen had said was true.
Yue Jang placed a comforting hand on Yue Mingluan's shoulder and said, "Don't worry, brother. I will try to find a medicine that can help you become a man again."
He glanced at Wang Chen and Su Chen, who were leaving while snickering. Seeing this, a cold light flashed in Yue Jang's eyes and he whispered to Yue Mingluan, "Also, you can get your revenge in the hidden realm."
