【Bang! Crack!】

【Inside Ye Zhendong’s room in Xuanji Hall, Ye Yu had smashed nearly everything that could be smashed, venting the dissatisfaction in his heart!】

【Ah, this is the huge gift you were talking about? Open your eyes and take a look—does that look like a gift? That’s a calamity! That woman has ill intentions. After so many years, she’s clearly here to get revenge on me! Anyway, I’m not marrying her. Even if you beat me to death, I won’t marry her!】

【Ye Yu’s voice echoed through the room, nearly shaking the beams apart.】

【Ye Zhendong stood in the corner, watching his agitation, and let out a helpless sigh.】

【Half an hour earlier!】

【When Ye Yu learned that his mother had arranged a marriage for him—and that the bride was Cui Yanshui—he instantly collapsed on the spot and firmly refused.】

【The smile on his mother Shi Tiange’s face stiffened. She immediately shot a glance, and Ye Zhendong promptly dragged Ye Yu into his room.】

【Then he began a long and earnest attempt at persuasion!】

【Yu’er, you mustn’t be foolish! The Cui family carries enormous weight in the God Realm. As the ninth-generation direct daughter, Cui Yanshui’s status is beyond noble!】

【And she has already agreed to it—this is an incredible blessing!】

【You have to understand, in terms of foundation and strength, we’re the ones reaching up to them!】

【As long as you marry her, you’ll be able to walk sideways in the God Realm from then on!】

【Even if one day your mother and I are no longer around, she can still ensure your wealth and safety!】

【Ye Zhendong’s words, put simply, meant one thing!】

【This is the blind date your mother and I carefully selected for you.】

【Her family background is unmatched. No matter what happens in the future, she will be your final fallback!】

【Since you can’t cultivate, your partner should be someone complementary—that’s what makes it perfect!】

【So what you should do right now is agree to this marriage, and then proceed smoothly with the wedding.】

【Then everything will be perfect for everyone!】

【From a theoretical standpoint, there’s nothing wrong with this.】

【It could even be said that this was the best path Ye Zhendong and Shi Tiange had planned for Ye Yu!】

【As long as he followed it step by step, he could forever stand at the summit, treating more than ninety-nine percent of the God Clan as ants.】

【If he could also have a child or two in the future, with the combined resources of both families, his path ahead would be even smoother.】

【With such a flat road to the heavens, if you hesitated for even a second, it would mean something was wrong with your brain.】

【But Ye Yu knew very clearly in his heart.】

【This was not a road to the heavens at all—it was a road of suffering!】

【As the saying goes, a small favor breeds gratitude, but great favor breeds resentment!】

【Cui Yanshui agreeing to marry him wasn’t to give him a good life—it was to settle an old grudge from back then!】

【She even said, “The years ahead are long—please take care of me.”】

【It sounded beautiful, but the tone behind it was cold enough to kill!】

【And judging from the fluctuations of divine power around her, she was already at the late stage of the Heavenly God Realm!】

【He himself was only at the New God Realm.】

【If they truly became cultivation partners, wouldn’t it turn into the wife beating the husband every night?】

【No, no—there was absolutely no way Ye Yu would agree to this marriage!】

【He immediately demanded that Ye Zhendong go and call off the engagement!】

【The latter said with a troubled expression: This marriage was arranged by your mother. I can’t make that decision—you’ll have to talk to her. But I think...】

【Before Ye Zhendong could finish speaking, Ye Yu muttered: I don’t care what you think—I care what I think. And I think this marriage won’t work!】

【What do you mean it won’t work?】

【Shi Tiange walked in from outside, her usual gentle expression replaced by a chilling coldness!】

【Even Ye Zhendong straightened up instinctively in fright.】

【Seeing her, Ye Yu couldn’t help but curl his lips slightly.】

【But when it came to calling off the engagement, there was still no room for negotiation!】

【To make Shi Tiange agree, Ye Yu recounted everything—from what happened in childhood to the voice transmission he had just received in the main hall.】

【The meaning was crystal clear: Cui Yanshui marrying him was not with good intentions!】

【What surprised Ye Yu was that after hearing everything, Shi Tiange’s expression didn’t change at all!】

【That was truly unexpected!】

【After thinking it over, Ye Yu couldn’t help but ask: Mother, don’t you have anything to say?】

【Shi Tiange replied calmly: What’s there to say? In the main hall just now, that girl Cui Yanshui already told me everything. Childhood scuffles—what’s there to hold a grudge over? You think everyone is as petty as you?】

【Ye Yu’s expression changed instantly!】

【Damn it—he had run into a high-level player!】

【With just a few words, she erased the past with ease and even labeled herself as magnanimous.】

【If an opponent like that entered the household, it would be absolute chaos!】

【No—absolutely not!】

【Ye Yu slammed the table!】

【This marriage—I will never agree to it!】

【His firm attitude made Shi Tiange’s temper flare as well.】

【I went through great effort to secure this excellent marriage for you, I’ve already prepared the marriage contract, and now you say you won’t go through with it? Fine! Zhendong, go prepare the funeral arrangements—I’m going to beat this brat to death today! Let’s just pretend we never had a son!】

【Seeing that Shi Tiange was serious, Ye Zhendong hurried forward to stop her.】

【Please don’t, madam!】

【Ye Yu also retreated tactically at once!】

【While beating a son to death might not actually happen, beating him badly was absolutely guaranteed!】

【And Ye Yu had no intention of suffering that kind of physical pain—so he fled immediately!】

【You chase, I run, with Ye Zhendong trying to block in between!】

【The family of three caused chaos inside Xuanji Hall for a full two hours before finally stopping.】

【Afterward, they sat down together and, after serious discussion, reached an agreement.】

【Cui Yanshui would stay in the Divine Alliance for one month. During that time, the two of them would interact. If Ye Yu still felt it wouldn’t work, then the engagement would be canceled.】

【To make it formal, both sides even wrote a written agreement.】

【The whole scene was handled quite seriously.】

【Holding the agreement, Ye Yu went straight back to his room!】

【He had already made up his mind—this entire month, he would not step outside at all, giving Cui Yanshui zero chance to interact with him.】

【As for her coming to find him?】

【That was even more impossible.】

【His answer would simply be: physically inconvenient!】

【As long as he endured this month and drove her away, everything would be worth it!】

【Ye Yu lay comfortably on a reclining chair, then raised his arm, preparing to check on Qi Yuan through the Cloud Nurturing Compass!】

【This little girl was the key to his becoming stronger!】

【Naturally, he had to pay close attention to her!】

【However, before the Cloud Nurturing Compass could fully activate, a massive explosion suddenly rang out!】

【Ye Yu turned his head and saw that the wall on the left side of his room had completely collapsed.】

【Ye Zhendong stood there, smiling pleasantly!】

【Ye Yu went completely numb.】

【Old man, are you playing with explosives?】
