Chapter 186: The Secret Dreamland

It's getting light.

After agreeing on their confessions, Xia Yu and Long Yanning drove back to the secret realm.

As soon as the two walked into the dormitory, they saw Long Fan sitting on the sofa with a sullen face. It seemed that he had not slept all night.

"Master, I wish you a happy new year." Xia Yu's reaction was quite quick. He felt uneasy when he saw Long Fan's expression, so he wished Long Fan a happy new year directly.

Looking at Xia Yu's actions, Long Yanning on the side couldn't help but laughed out loud.

Most of Long Fan's anger was dissipated by Xia Yu's move. If it weren't for the need to maintain his master's dignity, he would have probably laughed out loud.

"Don't give me that." Long Fan looked at Xia Yu and asked, "Where did you go last night? Why did you come back just now?"

"Master, please listen to my explanation." Xia Yu spoke quickly and described his experience last night in vivid detail.

"We accidentally entered the secret realm of beautiful dreams last night..."

Xia Yu kept the part about the Iron Warrior and his reward, and told Long Fan everything else that happened without reservation, including that about the divine beast man.

The plot of the Iron Warrior defeating Articuno was changed by Xia Yu to the Dream God appearing to save them.

Long Fan's expression became more and more serious as Xia Yu continued to talk, especially when he heard that the priests had appeared, he broke out in a cold sweat. If it weren't for the help of the Dream God, he would probably never see his daughter again.

Long Fan began to reflect in his heart that if his daughter really had an accident, he would hate himself for the rest of his life. Maybe he shouldn't restrict their love, as long as he grasped the right degree.

"Master. Master." Xia Yu interrupted Long Fan's thoughts.

"Have you told anyone else about this?" Long Fan looked at Xia Yu seriously.

Xia Yu and Long Yan Ning didn't know about the Priest Organization, but Long Fan knew. Every official member of the Priest Organization was very powerful, and even if he faced an official member of the Priest Organization, he was no match.

Once anything involves the priest organization, it will become difficult.

"No." Xia Yu responded.

"Don't tell anyone about this." Long Fan said, "From today on, you have to pay more attention to your own safety. Leave the rest to me. Also, if you see someone wearing a crying mask in the future, remember to run away as soon as possible. The Dream God won't help you every time!"

Xia Yu was disdainful in his heart. Without the God of Dreams, he would have beaten the shit out of the priest long ago.

…………

A few days later.

Xia Yu returned to his normal life. Looking at the smiles on the faces of his classmates in the training class, Xia Yu felt as if the incident in the Secret Dream Realm had never happened. However, the Dream Fruit, Crescent Feather and Gastly's Pokémon Egg in the system space were reminding Xia Yu that this was not a dream.

Another major event happened to Xia Yu recently.

That means my cousin Lin Yueheng is missing! Also missing with him are his car and a hostess.

After checking the surveillance footage, the Pokémon Association discovered that after Lin Yueheng stayed in his bar for a few hours, he drove towards a country road with a hostess. After that, the surveillance footage could no longer capture him, and both the man and the car disappeared.

The news of his beloved son's disappearance made Lin Xueyun, who was over 50 years old, worried. He once thought that his son was kidnapped, but the kidnappers didn't even call him in the past few days. Lin Xueyun began to have an ominous feeling in his heart.

After searching for several days, there was still no news of Lin Yueheng. Lin Xueyun became more and more haggard, as if she had aged dozens of years overnight.

After hearing about Lin Yueheng's disappearance, Xia Yu discovered that Lin Yueheng disappeared on the night of the Beautiful Dream Secret Realm. Combined with the last place he drove to, Xia Yu probably guessed the real reason for Lin Yueheng's disappearance.

There is a high probability that Lin Yueheng accidentally entered the secret realm of beautiful dreams and died there.

But even if Xia Yu knew Lin Yueheng's whereabouts, he could not tell Lin Xueyun, because once he told the truth about Lin Yueheng's disappearance, it would also expose the fact that he had been to the Dream Secret Land, which would bring more trouble.

Moreover, even if we take a step back, telling my uncle about Lin Yueheng's death might not necessarily be a good thing for him. He might not be able to accept the news of his beloved son's death and suffer a greater blow.

It's better to let uncle keep a glimmer of hope, missing is better than dying.

Xia Yu looked at his uncle Lin Xueyun, whose hair had turned white with worry, sighed slightly, and could only silently say sorry in his heart.

…………

In such a tense atmosphere, time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye it was the end of February. The training course was officially declared over, and Xia Yu boarded the plane back to Xishu Province to participate in the annual College Cup competition.

Xia Yu remembered that half a year ago, when he came to the imperial capital, he only had three Pokémon: Buzzbat, Charmander, and Forest Lizard. Now he has captured a total of ten Pokémon: Buzzbat, Charizard, Lizard King, Dragonite, Fang, Dragonite, Blaziken, Ace of the Swords, Gastly, and Iron Warrior.

Speaking of Iron Warrior, it did not show too much hostility towards Xia Yu when it was awake, and even obeyed Xia Yu's command to a certain extent.

This made Xia Yu quite pleased. It was not in vain that he ordered Alakazam to go up and block two attacks for it in the secret realm. He still had a conscience.

Among Xia Yu’s current ten Pokémon.

Team One: Buzz Bat at the peak of lord level, Lizard King at the peak of lord level, Charizard at the peak of lord level, Multi-dragon Messiah at the overlord level, Yaya has just broken through to the lord level, and Baby Dragon has elite level strength.

Among the Pokémon of the first team, Xia Yu's core force is still Lizard King, Charizard, and Buzzbat. The remaining three Pokémon, Shiny Dragon, Fangy, and Dragonite, have limited strength and need some time to grow.

As for Xia Yu's second team Pokémon, none of them have been publicly shown so far. Xia Yu also decided to hide all the Pokémon of the second team and train them into his own secret weapons.

The big brother in the second team is naturally an iron warrior with champion-level strength.

The second is the Aibutar, which was hatched not long ago, but its strength has reached the rare level, and because of the effect of the Crescent Feather, its growth speed is extremely fast.

Then there is Shiny Gastly. As it has ghost attributes, it can naturally absorb the core energy of the Pot of Punishment to accelerate its growth. Its current strength is the same rare level as that of Arcanum.

Xia Yu roughly estimated the remaining ghost-type core power in the Pot of Punishment. It was just enough for two Pokémon. If there was another ghost-type Pokémon, it would not be enough.

The last one is Fennekin, who has now broken through to the rare level and is ranked last.

…………

In an apartment in the imperial capital.

Lin Xueyun, with a face as pale as a tree and gray hair, stared at the man wearing a black and white mask opposite him. If Su Ye was here, he would find that this man was nine points similar to the Alakazam man who attacked the Dragon Secret Realm.

"Who are you? Didn't you say you had news about my son?" Lin Xueyun's voice revealed a trace of fatigue, and the whole person seemed to have been drained of energy: "Where is my son?"

"Director Lin." The masked man was tall and had a hoarse voice: "I'm sorry to tell you this news, your son is probably dead."

"Who are you? Don't talk nonsense." Lin Xueyun's voice trembled, but he still tried his best to keep his voice calm: "My son is just missing, he is not dead."

"Director Lin, I understand your feelings. I am also a father." The mysterious man spoke softly with a cold tone: "But Director Lin, there is no need for me to lie to you. Your son is indeed dead, and he died in the secret land of beautiful dreams."

“Beautiful Dream Secret Realm?” Lin Xueyun’s pupils trembled. He certainly knew what kind of place the Beautiful Dream Secret Realm was. “How could my son go to that kind of place?”

"Your son is unlucky and has mistakenly entered the secret realm of beautiful dreams." The mysterious male football player sighed, his tone full of regret: "I hope you can accept the reality."

"Impossible! Where is the evidence? If he's alive, I want to see his body. If he's dead, I want to see his body! Stop talking nonsense here." Lin Xueyun shouted at the top of his lungs.

"Director Lin, I have already told you the truth. It is up to you whether you believe it or not. But this time I have arranged to meet you privately. In addition to telling you the whereabouts of your son, I actually have one more thing to tell you."

"What's the matter?" Lin Xueyun asked with a frown.

"Xia Yu and Long Yan Ning also went to the Dream Secret Realm that night and came back alive. I heard that your son had a conflict with Xia Yu."

"You see, the truth is just such a coincidence. Your son and Xia Yu had a conflict, and they both strayed into the Secret Realm of Dreams. As a result, your son died, but Xia Yu came back alive."

"Director Lin."

"Don't you think about it? From the time and place your son disappeared, it is not difficult to judge that your son must have mistakenly entered the secret realm of beautiful dreams."

"Then why did Xia Yu hide from you about the Secret Realm of Dreams and the whereabouts of your son, until now?"

The words of the mysterious middle-aged man were like whispers of a devil, pulling Lin Xueyun into the abyss.

"There is only one possibility, that is Xia Yu killed your son in the secret realm."
