The next morning,
Shangguan Jiu came to find Ye Yu again.
She kept asking about Zhuo Lanqing’s whereabouts,
Because she was truly worried about Zhuo Lanqing’s safety.
This left Ye Yu feeling completely speechless.
Shangguan, oh Shangguan, you really are the Heavenly Realm’s best sister — her family got stolen,
And yet you’re still worried about her safety!
Truly heartbreaking!
With no other choice, Ye Yu could only explain again, “I can assure you, Zhuo Lanqing is really not in any danger.
She just had a whim to wander outside for a couple of days.
She’ll probably be back soon; you can completely rest assured!”
“Are you sure she’s really safe?”
Shangguan Jiu couldn’t help but add once more.
Ye Yu nodded firmly.
After much thought, he still didn’t reveal Zhuo Lanqing’s situation.
He really didn’t know how to begin.
But what Ye Yu didn’t expect at all,
Was that in the end, Shangguan Jiu was the one to speak first.
“She confessed to you?”
“Huh, what?”
Ye Yu suddenly looked up, staring at Shangguan Jiu in disbelief.
His eyes were full of shock.
How did she know?
Forget women’s intuition.
If that were really the case, it was terrifying.
Shangguan Jiu suddenly laughed.
“Actually, I saw long ago that Zhuo Lanqing liked you.
The gaze of someone in love can’t be hidden.
Plus, she’s been absent and not coming back.
So I guessed she definitely confessed to you.
But did you accept or reject her?”
Hearing this, Ye Yu couldn’t help but admire women’s meticulous reasoning ability.
When it came to things they cared about,
Women always burst out incredible power that amazed others.
However, her last question sharpened again.
After hesitating,
Ye Yu whispered, “I accepted.”
At this point, he no longer wanted to hide or deceive Shangguan Jiu.
However, the tears and anger he imagined didn’t appear.
Instead, Shangguan Jiu seemed quite relaxed.
“Hmm, that’s good, now we can truly be sisters.
Since that’s the case, you can tell her to come back.
There’s no need for her to keep wandering outside.”
Ye Yu was quite surprised and tentatively asked, “You’re not angry? Or are you planning to call her back just to deal with your ‘girlfriend’?”
Shangguan Jiu’s expression instantly became wonderfully vivid.
Then she raised a hand and lightly tapped Ye Yu’s nose.
“Do you really think I’m that kind of person?
Don’t overthink it.
I told you before — as long as I can be by your side, nothing else matters.
Besides, Zhuo Lanqing and I are very close; how could I be angry about this?”
Upon hearing that,
A warm current surged in Ye Yu’s heart, and he immediately pulled Shangguan Jiu into his embrace.
Around noon,
Ye Yu decisively took out his communication stone and contacted Zhuo Lanqing.
“You can come [N O V E L I G H T] back now!”
“How did it go? What was her reaction?”
“Are you playing spy games with me? What target? She’s your sister! She’s not angry and agreed.”
Upon hearing this news,
Zhuo Lanqing felt deeply moved and declared she’d be back before tonight.
She planned to drink three hundred cups with Shangguan Jiu to deepen their bond.
Ye Yu felt utterly speechless.
Whatever words you have, Zhuo Lanqing, you say them all.
Before the matter succeeds, you run.
After it succeeds, you plan to socialize.
You really have mastered the ways of human relationships!
After finishing contact with Zhuo Lanqing,
Ye Yu went straight to Zuo Yingchun’s room.
Honestly, standing at the door, Ye Yu felt a little reluctant.
No matter what, Zuo Yingchun had just ascended.
At this time, she should be given enough care and greetings, so she wouldn’t overthink things.
How could he let her reflect on her mistakes for so long?
Ye Yu frowned slightly, preparing to enter and soothe this newly ascended wife.
But what he never expected was,
The moment he pushed the door open,
Zuo Yingchun decisively stepped forward and said seriously, “Husband, I suddenly thought of something very, very important I haven’t told you yet!”
“Uh, what is it?”
Ye Yu blinked in confusion.
For some reason, Zuo Yingchun seemed a bit excited now.
What on earth was going on?
Zuo Yingchun said seriously, “Husband, you know I’m a reincarnated immortal, right?
Though I fell, my blessed land and grotto still exist.
Well, actually, it can’t be called a blessed land anymore.
Before I fell, I forcibly returned there.
Now, more accurately, it should be called my tomb.
My immortal sword, immortal robes, and a series of other things are all there!
Let’s go get them back now.”
Hearing this, Ye Yu did not object.
Since she had ascended again to the Heavenly Realm, naturally it would be more convenient to use her own equipment.
That truly deserved the name “important.”
However, why was she so excited?
Was there something special inside?
Facing Ye Yu’s question, Zuo Yingchun shook her head decisively,
And answered seriously, “Husband, let’s go, we’ll talk on the way — time is pressing.
I’m excited because I finally know why I lost to Bai Xichu at the same realm!
It’s because my immortal sword wasn’t in hand.
Wait until I get all my equipment back,
I’ll make her understand how to write the word ‘regret’!”
Zuo Yingchun’s answer made Ye Yu’s head hurt again.
Damn it, he originally wanted to comfort her.
But now it seemed there was no need to comfort — stopping her from fighting Bai Xichu was the most important thing.
Ye Yu shook his head slightly, originally wanting to reason with Zuo Yingchun a little more,
But she directly pushed him and left the Wuwei Tower.
Meanwhile,
In another room,
Bai Miaoling glanced at the sky outside.
It was already noon.
Why hadn’t husband come to let her out yet?
Was he testing her patience?
Hmm, if that’s the case, then she’d just wait a bit longer.
After all, a day passes in the blink of an eye.
She didn’t believe husband could keep her waiting too long!
Thinking this, Bai Miaoling sat cross-legged and entered meditation again.
Unbeknownst to her,
Her husband was already moving farther and farther away from the Wuwei Tower!
...
At the northern edge of the Heavenly Realm.
After flying for some time, under Zuo Yingchun’s lead, Ye Yu finally reached the foot of a celestial mountain.
According to her, this place was once her exclusive blessed land and grotto.
The scenery was beautiful, the immortal energy abundant — truly a perfect place.
But just as Zuo Yingchun happily prepared to shut down the defensive formation and enter the blessed land and grotto,
She discovered the formation had long been completely destroyed.
The gates to the blessed land and grotto were wide open, and inside was a complete mess.
Clearly, it showed signs of being ransacked.
Zuo Yingchun instantly flew into a rage: “Bastard, who stole my tomb?”
