## Earlier Years

He was a student of Er Yuehong, apparently even being one of his best students.

## In The Lost Tomb 2

In The Lost Tomb 2 he is the head of the Xie Clan and is being highly criticized since he is very young for being the head of a clan family.

He is interested in the secrets of the Paracel Underwater Tomb since his relative Xie Lianhuan disappeared while exploring it with Wu Sanxing and Huo Ling. He is good friends with Wu Xie, even helping him get the Snake Eye Copper Fish at the secret auction in Myanmar.

When back in Beijing, Yuchen has to face internal family problems, regarding him being the head, since a lot of his own people doubt his qualifications. It is indicated he is betrayed by his friend and adopted brother Zhai Xingyao but in the end it is revealed his brother saved him from an assassination attack.

After Zhai Xingyao helped him reveal the secret dealings of Old Wu, an elder member of their clan, Yuchen steps in and reveals the failed assassination attempt. After Old Wu is taken away he gives his clan an ultimatum of cleaning up the books in one week's time or go straight to the police and report themselves. He makes it clear that he is the head of the family and plans on remaining the head.

Later Zhai Xingyao asks him why he took it so easy on the clan and Yuchen reveals he does not have a problem with people who stray from the path sometimes or are not overly clean about their business but there should an order to everything and the dirty business should not go too far.

When he finds information on the tomb near the mysterious Fog village he takes multiple of his men there to explore. He is visibly shocked when he loses one of his men in a man-made rock slide but continues on further. They are later trapped by the Puppeteer's robotic self-exploding puppet and reunite with Wu Xie. Together they manage to go ahead further into the tomb and escape the ghost army temporarily by the sudden appearance of Yu Chen's brother Zhai Xingyao.

When facing the ghost general, he loses one of his man who is brutally murdered and wants revenge. Wu Xie manages to reason with him and Yuchen works with Wang Pangzi and Hei Yanjing, as well as the rest of the group, to give Wu Xie tome to find the jade token, stopping the general and the ghost soldiers. They succeed but are trapped in the tomb when the second explosion of Zhai Xingyao's bombs to stop the ghost general destabilized the tomb and it start crumbling down around them. He does not appear again in The Lost Tomb 2 but apparently survives judging from him appearing in Tomb of the Sea.

## In Tomb of the Sea

Xie Yuchen is seen multiple times in the old opera house and communication with Zhang Rishan, helping to set a secret plan in motion. It is later revealed he plays an integral part in the defeat of the Wang Clan and has been planning alongside Zhang Rishan and Wu Xie. While giving a list of names with secret Wang Clan members to Luo Que they are ambushed by anonymous men and supposedly killed. It is later revealed he is still alive and gave his flash drive containing important information of his prosperous Baoshang company to Huo Xiuxiu, which automatically gives her a right to be the next head of the company instead of the company being swallowed by the rest of the clans.

After giving Zhang Rishan the list of names, he disappears until the finale. Worried about Wu Xie he tries to call him but sees Wu Xie bring Li Cu to his car and they exchange a short nod, assuring each other of their safety.
