"Well then, allow me to properly introduce myself to all of you!
Standing before you is Yun Roumu, the Saintess of the Qingyun Sect. I am the childhood friend and perfect Dao companion of Ye Yu, the Qingyun Sect's Saint Son. We’ve been through thick and thin together, and our bond is as unbreakable as gold.
All disciples within the Qingyun Sect regard us as a match made in heaven. We’re so beloved that there’s already a fourth volume published about our love story!”
Yun Roumu took four books titled My Story with the Saintess That Must Be Told from her storage ring, waving them smugly in front of Li Ruowang and Gan Zhizui.
"Want to read them? Well, too bad! I’m not letting you see!" she teased before putting the books away.
Only those who had read them knew how absurdly dramatic these books were. Apart from the first book, which was a fabricated love story between Ye Yu and Yun Roumu, the rest contained tales involving Ye Yu and various other female cultivators. The third book’s main heroine, for example, was actually Li Ruowang herself!
There was no way Yun Roumu would let these rivals scrutinize such details.
However, she overlooked one critical detail: books circulate.
The disciples of Qingyun Sect’s Enlightenment Peak aspired to conquer the entire cultivation world with their literature, not merely entertain themselves. Li Ruowang, as the Empress of the Daqian Dynasty, had far-reaching resources and was keenly aware of everything circulating from the Qingyun Sect—especially anything concerning Ye Yu.
With a calm smile, Li Ruowang took five books from her storage ring. The first four were identical to Yun Roumu's, but the fifth had a different title: My Story with the Saintess, or Ye Yu Eats the Grass Close to the Nest!
“Your information is a bit outdated. This fifth book was just released by Enlightenment Peak two days ago. It discusses your connections with disciples from Five Fingers Peak, including Tuoba Qiyue and Xie Muling, and labels you as an abandoned Dao companion of Ye Yu. In other words, you’re... yesterday’s news.”
Li Ruowang’s words completely shattered Yun Roumu’s façade.
What was going on? How did this woman have the latest book from Enlightenment Peak? Why hadn’t she heard a word about it? And who was the abandoned Dao companion? Not her—she refused to believe it!
Yun Roumu’s expression changed drastically, and just as she was about to retort, Li Ruowang closed the distance between them in an instant, startling her into taking a step back.
"Enough with the bravado. You know exactly what these books truly contain.
And all this talk of 'childhood friends'? Laughable!
You and Ye Yu have never really been together. But we’re different. We’re Ye Yu’s rightful Dao companions, and we've been... intimate. As for you?
Haha.
A final piece of advice: being small isn’t your fault, but flaunting it as a virtue certainly is.”
With a dismissive wave of her sleeves, Li Ruowang’s perfect figure delivered the ultimate blow to Yun Roumu—a total defeat.
Yun Roumu staggered back, her face pale, clearly enraged.
Watching this exchange, Lin Miaoxue was taken aback. Who knew Ye Yu had such charm, stirring up competition among five women on his behalf? Four of them were even cultivators at the Tribulation Realm level. What was happening in this world?
Suddenly, a loud bang echoed.
The window of a nearby cabin swung open, and Tuoba Qiyue appeared, wielding a brush and yelling, “What’s with all this noise? Has no one heard of common courtesy?
I was just getting into my writing when you all interrupted my flow! What are you... huh? Why is there such a crowd?”
Tuoba Qiyue walked out, clearly puzzled.
Five Fingers Peak had always been famous for its quiet solitude, but ever since her junior disciple Ye Yu joined, the place had become lively, and now, there were six stunning women gathered outside. Quite a sight!
Wait... she had an idea.
Six women fighting over the rightful spouse... perfect material! She had to write this down!
Just as she was about to leave, Yun Roumu caught her arm on the spot.
“Sister, please, wait. Help me!”
At this point, Yun Roumu had realized she couldn’t outtalk these four women on her own. Her only option was to seek backup.
Lin Miaoxue was unfamiliar to her, and she couldn’t tell if she was a friend or foe, so her only choice was Tuoba Qiyue.
“Help you? Help you with what?” Tuoba Qiyue asked, looking puzzled.
Yun Roumu quickly explained, “Sister, these women claim to be Ye Yu’s Dao companions, but you know that I’m the only true Dao companion for him in the Qingyun Sect. You have to support me!”
Tuoba Qiyue’s face took on a complex expression, and she slowly took a step back, freeing herself from Yun Roumu’s grip.
In that instant, silence fell.
Yun Roumu’s heart sank.
Sister, are you serious about stepping back? That’s a harsh gesture, don’t you think?
She couldn't understand why Tuoba Qiyue wouldn’t help with something so trivial. What could possibly be holding her back?
After a moment of thought, Tuoba Qiyue spoke softly, “Saintess, I think it would be best if you kept some distance from Junior Brother Ye Yu from now on. And as for the term 'Dao companion,' I suggest you stop using it.
You see, a few days ago, I already became his Dao companion. My parents and my master Hongluan are well aware of it.”
Now Yun Roumu knew the true meaning of heartbreak.
Her face turned ghostly pale, and she clutched her chest, staggering back in disbelief.
New n𝙤vel chapters are published on freewebnovel.cσ๓.
The pain was unbearable.
She had come here looking for an ally, only to find a walking nightmare!
Indeed, Tuoba Qiyue had met with her parents and her master Hongluan, making her relationship with Ye Yu official. She held a legitimate status that couldn’t be denied.
But how was Yun Roumu the last to know about such a significant development?
And to top it off, she had asked the recognized Dao companion to affirm her relationship with their shared partner? How foolish could she be?
Yun Roumu could only retreat in defeat, her spirit crushed, and for the moment, she had to bow out of this contest.
Meanwhile, Li Ruowang and Gan Zhizui’s expressions grew even more serious.
They had managed to discredit one false Dao companion, only for another officially recognized one to appear.
Ye Yu, just how many “enemies” have you given us to contend with?
