Chapter 44: Chapter 44: Issuing Rewards Again

The next morning, Ye Yunyi opened his eyes.

He looked at the girl beside him.

She was still fast asleep, just like a little kitten!

It seemed she had been thoroughly worn out last night!

The next moment, a screen of light popped up in front of Ye Yunyi!

[Congratulations, Host, for successfully marrying a wife! You have obtained the Second Stage of Vajra Indestructibility!]

’The Second Stage?’

’That’s awesome!’

’I’ll take it!’

The next moment, another screen of light popped up.

[Congratulations, Host! Your wife has successfully become pregnant! You have been rewarded with ten Divine-level Death Warrior Puppets!]

’Death Warrior Puppets?’

’What are those?’

[Death Warrior Puppet: A puppet with no self-awareness that completely obeys the Host’s commands. Furthermore, the puppet’s strength is bound to the Host’s!]

’This thing seems pretty good, too!’

With that, Ye Yunyi immediately pulled up his own stats panel.

[Name: Ye Yunyi]

[Height: 185cm]

[Tier: Late-Golden Stage]

[Skills: Rapid Absorption, Divine-level Hunting Skill, Second Stage of Nine Nether Qi, Divine-level Body Technique, Second Stage of Vajra Indestructibility]

[Weapon: Tier One War Axe]

[Artifacts: Divine-level Exotic Beast Control Pill (x19), Death Warrior Puppet (x10)]

A short while later.

Ye Yunyi went downstairs, looking refreshed and full of vigor again.

Over here, Bai Zhixi was staring at him.

Ye Yunyi remembered how Bai Zhixi had accused him of using Yin Yang Replenishment.

And now, the girl was still looking at him like that.

’Looks like she still wants to confirm it!’

’Seems she couldn’t confirm it properly that day!’

"You’re at the Early-Golden Stage now, so shouldn’t your combat power be a bit stronger?"

Ye Yunyi asked, looking at Bai Zhixi.

Bai Zhixi, who was eating breakfast, mumbled, "Of course. The Early-Golden Stage is definitely much stronger than the Late-Silver Stage!"

"Then shall we test it out?"

Bai Zhixi: "..."

’Huh?’

’Test what?’

The next moment!

Bai Zhixi understood. ’Damn him.’

’So *that’s* what he meant by ’combat power’!’

Instantly, a lovely blush spread across Bai Zhixi’s face.

’To say something like that in broad daylight!’

Watching from the side, a smile played on Zhou Huaiwei’s lips. She then teased, "Alas, Little Sister Bai is different from us. She’s a genuine, powerful Mutant. Her combat power is surely much greater than ours."

Ye Yunyi looked at them. "Ever heard of the ’Three Heroes vs. Lu Bu’? You could all come at me together."

Hearing Ye Yunyi’s words, the women fell silent. What could they even say to that?

’It’s dangerous!’

’Too dangerous!’

"I surrender, I surrender!"

Zhou Huaiwei was the first to wave the white flag.

Then she glanced down at her stomach. It was that time of the month, but her "relative" hadn’t arrived as scheduled. She had a feeling she had also hit the jackpot!

’But it’s not confirmed yet. I’ll just wait and see for now.’

Meanwhile, Ye Yunyi stopped teasing them.

He went straight to the place where Little Heizi had been staying.

’Summon puppets!’

The next moment!

Several cloaked puppets appeared before him!

They looked no different from ordinary people, but they all wore cloaks and masks!

Ye Yunyi looked at them.

Then, a screen of light popped up over them.

[Death Warrior Puppet!]

[Strength: Early-Golden Stage!]

’Ten Early-Golden Stage puppets!’

"Turn around!"

At Ye Yunyi’s command, they turned around!

Then, with a thought, Ye Yunyi controlled them mentally!

They turned to face him again!

’Whoa!’

’Damn, it seems they really are bound to me!’

’Nice, nice!’

Ye Yunyi had them spread out within the barrier to keep a close watch and prevent any potential crises.

At the same time!

「In Seaside Barrier!」

Dongfang Ruoyu was counting the Crystal Cores they had obtained yesterday!

Just then, a female Mutant ran over!

"City Lord! We’ve received some news!"

She said, her face a mixture of shock and anxiety, as she handed the message to Dongfang Ruoyu.

Dongfang Ruoyu looked at her, puzzled.

’What news could be so urgent?’

Then, she opened it.

And read.

At first, she frowned!

But!

Gradually!

Shock solidified on her face!

Finally, her delicate body trembled, her expression one of utter disbelief!

What had she just seen?!

Ye Yunyi!

By himself!

Had annihilated Mighty Barrier!

He had killed all those bandits!

And taken all their things!

You have to understand, Mighty Barrier was filled with Mutants!

And they were powerful, with an overwhelming bandit aura!

But even so, they were taken down by Ye Yunyi alone!

’In that case, does this mean Nebula Barrier is now the strongest among all the small barriers?’

And!

Nebula Barrier must have so many resources now!

’Terrifying!’

’It’s simply too terrifying!’

’No wonder Bai Zhixi not only gave up her position, but also gave him her heart!’

’How could any woman not fall for a man like that!’

"Sigh, now Nebula Barrier doesn’t have to worry about Crystal Cores. But my own goal is still a long way off."

Dongfang Ruoyu sighed. All she could do now was pray that the people from the Demon Exorcism Association who came to collect the Crystal Cores would arrive later rather than sooner!

Meanwhile!

The other small barriers also began to receive the news, one after another!

They, too, were utterly shocked.

And also relieved!

After all, Mighty Barrier had been like a knife hanging over their heads!

One that could fall at any moment!

Now that Ye Yunyi had destroyed it!

They would no longer have to worry about being plundered by Mighty Barrier!

The feeling was simply amazing!

「Back at the villa.」

Ye Yunyi was inside, feeding Divine-level Beast Food to the Crimson Flame Tiger and Little Heizi.

Little Heizi ate cheerfully.

The Crimson Flame Tiger was the same!

Now, after eating the Divine-level Beast Food, it had lost all interest in flesh and blood!

Ye Yunyi looked at the Crimson Flame Tiger.

’Well, I’ll be. Even a wild boar is eating fine bran now.’

But he had to admit!

Ever since this guy started eating Divine-level Beast Food...

...it had grown much larger, and its fur was gleaming and bright!

It couldn’t look any more handsome!

"Eat up, eat up." Ye Yunyi crouched down and teased, "Get nice and fat, so there’s more meat to butcher for the New Year."

His words made the Crimson Flame Tiger’s body tremble!

It looked up at Ye Yunyi in terror.

But the next moment!

It froze!

Then, a series of CRACKLES and POPS came from within its body!

Afterward, its body grew another size larger!

Its fur turned a deep crimson!

The Crimson Flame Tiger roared at the sky!

The tiger’s roar echoed through the heavens!

’Oh?’

Ye Yunyi looked at the Crimson Flame Tiger, sensed its power, and was stunned for a moment.

’Wasn’t this guy’s limit the Early-Golden Stage?’

’But now, it’s actually broken through to the Mid-Golden Stage!’

’Looks like the effect of the Divine-level Beast Food is really noticeable!’

’Or... was it my threat that did the trick?’

’Either way, leveling up is a good thing!’

"Alright, I happen to be out of suitable Spirit Plants for refining medicine! When I get back, you and I will go to the jungle to look for some. You should know where to find them, right?"

As Ye Yunyi spoke, the Crimson Flame Tiger let out a low growl, signaling its understanding.

"Okay, in that case, I’ll reconsider eating you for the New Year,"

Ye Yunyi said.

Just then, a deputy rushed over.

"City Lord! City Lord!"
