"Detected completion of Luo Xue’s dream of not wanting Zong Shangbang to like her while also not ruining their relationship. Dream duration: two hundred seventy thousand years. Difficulty: Normal+. Reward: Early Great God Realm cultivation."
As pure divine power surged into his body, Ye Yu’s cultivation successfully broke through from the True God Realm into the Great God Realm.
"Oh ho, an unexpected bonus!"
This was truly something he had not anticipated.
Thinking about it, Luo Xue was quite interesting. From this, it seemed that as early as two hundred seventy thousand years ago, she already knew Zong Shangbang liked her.
Yet she deliberately did not say it out loud and did not want to sour the relationship with her senior brother.
Clearly, she did not want to lose Zong Shangbang as support in the God Realm.
And as long as the relationship did not break down,
Luo Xue was essentially in a position where she could advance or retreat at will.
How was that any different from keeping admirers on a string?
"Bah, what a scumbag!"
Ye Yu curled his lip disdainfully, then his figure completely vanished from where he stood.
A few days later.
An encounter made Ye Yu deeply understand what it meant for enemies to meet on a narrow road.
Seeing Luo Xue again, his mood was complicated.
From the fury blazing in her eyes, it was obvious that his words through the communication stone last time had inflicted serious damage on her.
But Ye Yu had no intention of entangling himself further with this manipulative woman.
He waved casually and said, "We meet again, Junior Sister Luo. I have something to attend to, so I’ll take my leave first. Farewell."
The moment his words fell, a golden chain instantly appeared around his body,
Binding him firmly in place.
"Don’t be in such a hurry to leave, Daoist friend. Explain something to me first. Why exactly is my appearance a sigh?"
Luo Xue appeared in front of Ye Yu in an instant, a faint killing intent lingering around her.
This truly surprised him.
"Seriously? I only said a few idle remarks and you’re already harboring killing intent? That’s a bit excessive, isn’t it?"
Luo Xue laughed mockingly.
"What’s excessive about it? Don’t think I can’t tell. You deliberately tried to disgust me for my senior brother’s sake. Someone as honest and timid as him couldn’t possibly come up with such bad ideas. So all of this was orchestrated by you, wasn’t it?"
Ye Yu raised an eyebrow slightly.
It seemed this woman was not brainless after all.
"Daoist Luo, killing someone over a few words seems rather inappropriate, don’t you think?"
Ye Yu’s voice was calm, showing not the slightest fear of death.
But in Luo Xue’s eyes, this was nothing more than stubborn bravado.
She was at the late Great God Realm, while he was only at the early Great God Realm. Now he was bound by the God Binding Rope. The advantage was entirely hers.
Whether Ye Yu lived or died was a matter of her single thought.
At this point, did it even matter whether it was appropriate?
Luo Xue raised her hand slightly. A divine sword appeared before her. She grasped it firmly and pressed it against Ye Yu’s neck.
"Brat, my senior brother is special. He can’t be killed. But this anger of mine must be vented. So you must die."
Just as Luo Xue was about to lightly swing her sword and end Ye Yu’s life,
Her chest suddenly felt stifled, as if struck by a massive impact.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
After several dull explosions, the God Binding Rope completely shattered.
Back in the Celestial World, Luo Xue had refined this item into her natal artifact. It had accompanied her for many years.
Now that the rope was broken, she naturally suffered backlash.
Luo Xue stared at the ground in utter shock.
She even suspected her eyes were malfunctioning.
Wasn’t the ghostly divine body notoriously frail?
How could it possibly shatter a divine artifact?
Even if this artifact had evolved from an immortal artifact, it still should not have been possible.
Before she could think further, she suddenly felt a tremendous force at her throat.
Under that force, she was lifted high into the air.
Ye Yu said softly, "To be honest, considering you once contributed a reward to me, I truly didn’t want to kill you. But unfortunately, you insist on courting death."
Luo Xue had no idea what reward meant.
But at this moment, she only wanted to beg for mercy.
However, not everyone was entitled to that opportunity.
Ye Yu directly killed Luo Xue and thoroughly destroyed her soul as well.
This was because he had previously learned from Zong Shangbang that the two of them seemed to have a martial uncle who was also currently in the God Realm.
To prevent a scenario where killing the young would bring out the old,
Eliminating the roots was the simplest and most direct method.
Ye Yu casually tossed Luo Xue’s divine body aside. Just as he was about to leave, he turned and discovered a woman in a white palace robe standing not far away.
She was calmly looking at him, neither pleased nor angry.
Ye Yu glanced around and found that it seemed only the two of them were here.
"What’s with you staring at me for no reason?"
Ye Yu frowned slightly and prepared to leave again.
At that moment, a clear, ethereal voice sounded.
"Daoist friend, you killed my martial niece and think you can simply walk away?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Yu felt his scalp go numb.
This woman before him was the rumored martial uncle of Luo Xue and Zong Shangbang?
How could it be such a coincidence?
Ye Yu began to suspect whether this had been a trap aimed at him from the very beginning.
There was no choice—everything was simply too coincidental.
It truly forced one to doubt.
But what exactly were they plotting?
For someone merely at the Great God Realm, it should not warrant such effort.
The mysterious female martial uncle before him had not the slightest trace of divine power leaking from her body, making it impossible to discern her cultivation.
But one thing was certain—her cultivation was absolutely above his.
Otherwise, Ye Yu would not be unable to see through her.
This was troublesome.
Should he flee at top speed, or risk it all?
As Ye Yu pondered, the woman stepped forward slowly and said softly, "Relax. You need not be overly alarmed. I happened to pass by, and I have no intention of avenging this deceased martial niece."
"I only wish to ask you one question. Why is it that you carry his scent? Though faint, I would never mistake it."
Ye Yu raised an eyebrow slightly.
"The ‘him’ you speak of—who exactly is that?"
The palace-robed goddess clasped one hand behind her back and said calmly, "I am Hua Junshuang. Since you carry his aura, you should know who I am."
Hearing this, Ye Yu instinctively wanted to retort.
He truly could not stand these self-important people who assumed they were widely renowned when in reality—
Wait, she was Hua Junshuang?
Ye Yu’s eyes widened involuntarily.
