What! The Wives in My Dreams Are Real?

Ye Yu casually released Gu Qinglan and was just about to speak when he noticed her nearly lose her footing and fall backward.

Fortunately, his reflexes were quick. He caught her immediately, preventing her from hitting the ground.

"Are you injured?"

Ye Yu's question sent Gu Qinglan into a sudden panic.

She was not injured at all. Her mind had simply been a complete mess just now, and she had placed all her weight against Ye Yu.

Of course she would fall when he let go.

Naturally, Gu Qinglan was too embarrassed to admit that. She hurriedly made up an excuse.

"I used up too much divine power just now and nearly lost my balance. I'm... I'm fine now!"

Ye Yu gave Gu Qinglan a suspicious look but said nothing more.

Instead, he turned his attention to Lady Jin across from them.

As long as this wretched toad remained alive, she would continue causing trouble.

It would be better to settle things once and for all today.

Still, Lady Jin was undeniably powerful. Even all those one-eyed giants from the Divine Sea Society had failed to kill her.

Just how hard was she to kill?

Ye Yu said softly, "You must be dying to know why I broke through so quickly. Why don't you come over here? I'll explain it to you slowly."

Lady Jin sneered.

"Do you really take me for a fool, brat? Don't think I failed to see how you killed that Divine Lord just now!"

"I admit that the Demon Race's body-tempering methods are indeed formidable. You can kill a Divine Lord Realm expert with a single punch."

"But what can you do if I never give you the chance to get close?"

With that, Lady Jin retreated several steps and formed a hand seal.

The clear sky Cao Angyang had carved open was once again covered by dark clouds.

Shadows completely engulfed the land.

Immediately afterward, the muddy ground seemed to come alive and began devouring everything upon it.

The remains of the Divine Sea Society's one-eyed giants, Cao Angyang's body, and everything else sank into the swamp.

A frog's croak suddenly resounded throughout heaven and earth.

Lady Jin's figure slowly faded from where she stood.

"Ye Yu, do you know something? Killing you became my obsession long ago."

"I have prepared for this day for a very, very long time."

"I hope you don't die too quickly. Otherwise, half the fun will be gone!"

The moment her voice faded, the previously calm swamp began to churn violently.

Countless palm-sized golden toads burrowed out of the ground.

Tens of thousands of them swarmed toward Ye Yu and Gu Qinglan. They opened their mouths, firing streaks of golden light at lightning speed.

There was nowhere to dodge.

Ye Yu instinctively used Water Command, condensing a wall of water in front of him to block the light.

But he had clearly underestimated the power of those tiny toads.

The water wall held for only two breaths before shattering completely.

Seeing this, Ye Yu grabbed Gu Qinglan beside him and used Zero-Sense Leap.

He was searching for Lady Jin.

As long as she died, these toads would naturally be unable to survive.

In a single instant, Ye Yu shifted between dozens of locations. He released his divine sense as well, yet still failed to locate Lady Jin.

It was as though she had vanished from this world entirely.

An inexplicable sense of panic suddenly arose in Ye Yu's heart.

Once it appeared, it surged uncontrollably, growing stronger by the moment.

The next second, a sharp pain pierced his chest.

He looked down and saw a dagger protruding from his heart, having been driven into him from behind.

The person who had stabbed him was none other than Gu Qinglan.

Tears streamed down her face as she said in a trembling voice, "I'm sorry. I want to live. I really want to live. That woman spoke directly into my mind. She said that as long as I injured you, she would let me leave here alive!"

As Gu Qinglan spoke, she slowly backed away.

Blood trickled down the edge of the dagger and dripped onto the ground.

The vivid crimson was painfully conspicuous against the dim swamp.

The dagger appeared to be an extremely high-grade divine artifact.

In only a few breaths, it had not only drained all the divine power from Ye Yu's body but had even absorbed most of his vitality.

His face turned deathly pale.

He had no strength left in his body. He could not even remain standing and involuntarily fell backward.

At that moment, a colossal golden toad over a thousand zhang tall suddenly appeared. It opened its enormous mouth and swallowed Ye Yu whole.

The entire world instantly plunged into absolute darkness.

Ye Yu struggled slowly to his feet.

Then he suddenly laughed.

Lady Jin's voice sounded once more.

"What are you laughing at? Have you resigned yourself to death?"

Ye Yu shook his head slightly, then pulled the dagger from his chest with one hand.

"Old toad, it seems you really are injured."

"This overwhelming stench of blood isn't coming from me. It's coming from you!"

"You dragged me into an illusion and stopped suppressing that bloody scent because you wanted me to believe all of this was real, didn't you?"

"But honestly, your illusion is far too crude. I simply can't believe it."

Ye Yu abruptly crouched down and plunged the dagger into the red flesh beneath him.

Immediately afterward, everything around him was washed in gray.

Ye Yu had activated Equality of All Beings.

Without divine power to sustain it, everything around him reverted to reality.

Ye Yu and Gu Qinglan were still standing exactly where they had been.

Lady Jin, however, had already approached them.

Her hands were raised, ready to strike.

At such close range, had Ye Yu dispelled the illusion even a moment later, her ambush might truly have succeeded.

But now, it was already too late.

Ye Yu slapped a hand over Lady Jin's face and smashed her downward with all his strength.

In an instant, the ground shattered completely.

The place where Ye Yu stood collapsed more than ten meters.

Lady Jin had already been injured after killing the dozen or so one-eyed giants from the Divine Sea Society.

Yet to successfully kill Ye Yu, she had forced herself to endure her injuries and cast an illusion on him, hoping to end everything as quickly as possible.

She had never expected him to break free from it so quickly.

His speed was impossibly fast.

The Ancient Demon Physique was truly terrifying.

In a single instant, Ye Yu had beaten her to the brink of death.

Driven by her instinct to survive, Lady Jin dragged her dying body across the ground and pleaded in a trembling voice, "Don't kill me! I can still be useful! I submit to you. From now on, I will offer you all the divine power gathered here!"

Ye Yu said nothing.

He decisively sent Lady Jin on her way.

There was nothing he could do about it.

Her offer held no appeal to him whatsoever.
