Ye Yu's sudden appearance took both Zuo Yingchun and Ruan Lianyue by surprise.
Then, they recalled the phrase "attempted murder of one's own husband."
Their hearts filled with joy.
Could this be an indirect acknowledgment of his identity?
In unison, Zuo Yingchun and Ruan Lianyue said, "Sister, this is my husband, Ye Yu!"
The moment they said this, their smiles froze.
The man they each liked turned out to be the same person?
What was this?
Sisters turning into rivals?
The shift in their relationship status was so abrupt that Zuo Yingchun and Ruan Lianyue were completely unprepared, their minds going blank, not knowing what to do.
But Ye Yu didn't give them much time to process.
He stepped forward, looking solemnly at the two women from his dream.
"So, tell me, what exactly were you both planning?"
Su Yao stood behind Ye Yu, watching Ruan Lianyue and Zuo Yingchun with caution.
She knew Ye Yu had other close female companions and didn’t mind their existence.
More sisters, after all.
As long as Ye Yu liked her, nothing else mattered.
But if anyone dared to harm Ye Yu...
Then, apologies, but no matter who they were, they would have to die!
If Ye Yu couldn’t bring himself to do it, Su Yao wouldn’t mind taking care of it for him.
She wanted nothing to mar the future happiness she envisioned with Ye Yu.
Under Ye Yu’s reprimanding gaze, Ruan Lianyue felt a wave of unease and guilt, especially considering the events from the dream realm. She hurriedly recounted the misunderstanding that had occurred.
Hearing this, Ye Yu couldn’t help but laugh.
Who would have thought such a bizarre coincidence would nearly get him killed by a dragon's mistaken assumptions?
Had he not activated a defensive formation in time, the outcome might have been fatal.
Upon realizing it was all a misunderstanding, the cold look in Su Yao’s eyes gradually faded, and her hands, which had been clenched in her sleeves, relaxed.
Zuo Yingchun, however, pouted slightly, glancing at Su Yao standing by Ye Yu’s side and Ruan Lianyue nearby.
She felt a twinge of bitterness.
She had thought that Zhu Diezhen, whom she had encountered before, was her primary rival.
But now, she discovered that Ye Yu had not just one, but two wives.
For the first time, Zuo Yingchun felt an overwhelming sense of crisis.
Ye Yu noticed the shift in Zuo Yingchun’s expression and softly asked, “What’s wrong?”
Truthfully, Ye Yu held a deep affection for this reincarnated celestial woman.
Zuo Yingchun hesitated, then shook her head slightly.
Seeing this, Ye Yu didn’t press further.
Now that he had acquired the Water Essence, he was eager to return to the Qingyun Sect to save Lin Miaoxue.
After all, it was a matter of life and death, and no one knew how much longer Lin Miaoxue’s body could endure.
Naturally, returning as soon as possible was his priority.
“I have urgent matters to attend to, so I’ll be leaving first,” Ye Yu said, preparing to depart.
Zuo Yingchun’s heart clenched, instinctively thinking Ye Yu still hadn’t regained his memories.
Her eyes turned slightly red, but she mustered all her courage and tugged on Ye Yu’s sleeve.
“Please, don’t rush off just yet.
Here, I’ve gathered these for you. They’re treasures that can help restore your memory and cultivation. I hope you’ll accept them.
And if one day you remember me, please come find me, okay?”
Zuo Yingchun lowered her head slightly, holding out a storage ring in her trembling hand.
Ye Yu could clearly see her hand quivering.
At that moment, a mix of emotions filled his heart.
The once-proud Zuo Yingchun, who had been so full of life—when had she become so cautious?
Not wanting to see her like this, Ye Yu pondered briefly and then spoke softly.
“Come with me. I have something to discuss with you.”
Zuo Yingchun’s entire body trembled, looking at Ye Yu in disbelief.
“Really? I can?”
Ye Yu smiled and nodded.
Then he turned to Su Yao, whose face lit up with anticipation.
“If you’re free, you can join us too,” he said.
Su Yao smiled radiantly.
“If my husband invites me, I shall naturally obey.”
While Zuo Yingchun and Su Yao were elated, Ruan Lianyue stood aside, feeling a chill run through her entire being.
Was this Ye Yu’s way of showing where he stood?
It seemed he still hadn’t let go of the parallel world’s emotional wounds.
Ruan Lianyue let out a self-deprecating laugh.
Indeed, it was only fitting that he hadn’t.
In that parallel world, she had done such unspeakable things to him. Being abandoned now was only fair.
She thought that everything happening now was her own doing.
Despite this, the treasures she had painstakingly collected for him... she still wanted to give them to him.
But as she looked at his figure, she couldn’t bring herself to step forward, fearing rejection.
So, she looked toward Zuo Yingchun, considering giving the treasures to Ye Yu through her.
When you truly love someone, even giving quietly is fulfilling.
In the parallel world, Ruan Lianyue had received so much, never knowing it was Ye Yu’s doing. She always thought it was all from Liang Yu.
Perhaps, in this reality, she could atone for her actions.

Just as Ruan Lianyue was about to whisper to Zuo Yingchun to pass the treasures to Ye Yu, he suddenly pointed at her.
“You too, come with us.”
Ruan Lianyue lifted her head abruptly, looking at the familiar figure.
Tears mixed with a smile appeared on her face.
Moments later, they all left the underwater site, boarding a spiritual vessel bound for the Qingyun Sect.
With so many people, the only way to have a proper conversation was aboard the spirit boat.
Besides, the spirit boat Li Ruowang had gifted was impressively fast.
Five stars for sure!
Once they were aboard, Su Yao, knowing Ye Yu had something to discuss with Zuo Yingchun and Ruan Lianyue, excused herself under the pretense of making tea and left.
Su Yao was truly the ideal wife in every man’s heart—gentle, considerate, and incredibly understanding.
For such a thoughtful wife, Ye Yu would surely reward her—but not yet.
He then focused his gaze on Zuo Yingchun and Ruan Lianyue.
“All right, tell me, how did you two end up together?”
Upon hearing this, both Zuo Yingchun and Ruan Lianyue’s expressions became somewhat uneasy.
From strangers to drinking buddies, confidantes, and even sisters—this transformation had taken place in just one night.
But who would have thought fate would play such a trick on them?
The man they both cherished turned out to be the same person.
So what were they now? Rivals brought together by destiny?
For a moment, their hearts were conflicted.
Finally, Ruan Lianyue took the lead in explaining everything.
She praised Zuo Yingchun, affirming that Zuo truly cherished Ye Yu and that everything she had done was for his “memory recovery.”
When she got to this point, Ruan Lianyue paused, turning to Ye Yu with a hint of nervousness in her voice.
“You really lost your memory? When did that happen?”
“Uh...ahem... I... had some minor issues with my spirit recently. My memory was a bit jumbled, but it’s fine now,” Ye Yu replied, his expression slightly stiff as he managed to craft a small excuse.
