He Jinjiao was utterly stunned.
She clearly hadn’t expected her Dao partner Zhou Boyi to make such a shocking move.
Had their past vows of eternal loyalty been forgotten?
And now, shamelessly, he was preparing to watch the show?
How outrageous!
He was simply inhuman!
No, wait, he was not even a male ghost!
He Jinjiao felt deeply wronged, but when she glanced up at Ye Yu’s handsome face,
her heart involuntarily stirred.
Honestly, Senior Brother’s appearance was indeed extraordinarily handsome.
If she could become his Dao partner, it wouldn’t be impossible.
At least it would be far better than Master Han Qi, that old bastard.
And his power was so strong.
He was absolutely the best choice for a final refuge.
Having realized this,
He Jinjiao coyly said, "Senior Brother, please be merciful; from now on, I will be yours..."
Before she could finish speaking,
Ye Yu crushed He Jinjiao’s soul body in his hand, causing it to dissipate like smoke.
"Don’t come near me!"
"Do you even know what you are?"
"With such looks, you want to rise? Who else should die if not you!"
Seeing this, Zhou Boyi immediately lost all hope of reconciliation.
He instantly flickered and prepared to flee in the gap.
However, he had severely underestimated Ye Yu’s strength!
Ye Yu moved his mind and unleashed the supreme ghost technique—Burning the Nine Nether.
The entire Yin Sea Hall, including all ghosts present and Zhou Boyi, completely dissipated.
"Ah, the world is quiet again!"
Ye Yu was in a great mood. This was the first time he truly felt the charm of his dream talent.
Not only had his strength skyrocketed while joking around, but he had also casually obtained a high-grade ghost immortal artifact.
He really had won big!
But soon after, Ye Yu fell into deep thought.
He had profited this time, but where would he find another lucky star like Zhou Boyi next time?
Honestly, if he kept encountering green tea bitches like He Jinjiao—those who speak half-truths, frame others without clearly stating facts—
then Ye Yu would surely be infuriated!
Therefore, the upcoming development route was truly important.
Ye Yu sat cross-legged, pondering for a moment.
He came up with a rather decent plan.
That was to return to his old trade among humans—becoming a demon lord!
Well, more precisely, a villain!
The Celestial Realm calls them evil immortals; in the Underworld, they should be called evil ghost immortals!
Anyway, that’s basically what it meant.
Step one: build a reputation.
Then casually do a few things so that the martial world would naturally gossip, blaming him for things he didn’t do.
Things he didn’t steal would also be pinned on him.
At that point, Ye Yu could choose whether to accept it.
Because this dream talent was very human.
For those framed or slandered, the event would only become real once admitted; if denied, nothing would happen!
One had to admit it to make it real.
This design was indeed very reasonable.
After planning his path, Ye Yu flickered and searched for a chance to become famous.
The next day,
Ye Yu’s father, Ye Dongfang, arrived.
He had come specifically to deliver “tuition fees.”
No other choice—Ye Yu’s cultivation was too poor, so Ye Dongfang had to regularly send some tuition fees to the Yin Sea Hall Master Han Qi each month to allow Ye Yu to stay and learn something.
Whatever heavenly materials, ghost stones, or ghost artifacts—they accepted everything.
This time, Ye Dongfang brought quite a lot again,
hoping to persuade Han Qi to continue teaching Ye Yu.
He even specially wrote a heartfelt thank-you letter.
It was full of sincere intentions.
But when Ye Dongfang arrived at this familiar place,
he found nothing but desolation.
"Huh? Damn it!"
"Where’s the Yin Sea Hall?"
"Could I have lost my mind and come to the wrong place? Or am I trapped in some ghostly maze?"
After puzzling over it, Ye Dongfang turned to descend the mountain, wandering around the area a few more times,
then returned.
Ye Dongfang was sure this was the right place.
So why was the entire Yin Sea Hall gone?
Could it be that after offending some big shot, the whole Yin Sea Hall was wiped out without a trace?
Thinking of this possibility,
Ye Dongfang began to wail loudly.
“Twenty-nine years of hoping my son would become great, and before he could rise, he’s gone just like that?”
“My good eldest son!”
On the desolate mountain stood a grieving ghost.
At age thirty, Ye Yu had advanced into the mid Ghost Immortal Realm.
In one year, he had only crossed one small realm.
This was not due to lack of effort.
But in the current time,
Ye Yu having only Ghost Immortal Realm cultivation really couldn’t pull off any major events.
After all, the ghost aura in the Underworld had already revived to the Heaven Ghost Realm.
One person causing trouble was really difficult.
So Ye Yu turned and headed toward Chouyang City, hoping to see if Xin Wan’en and Ran Jingjing were still around.
But he returned empty-handed.
According to rumors, they had disappeared for a long time, whereabouts unknown.
This startled Ye Yu.
"Oh? They’re not here either?"
Before the dream ended, Ye Yu had entrusted Xin Wan’en with matters of the Celestial Realm.
She shouldn’t have killed herself.
The only possibility was that she was seeking a way to ascend to the Celestial Realm.
Could it be she found it so soon?
Hmm, it seemed that after this dream ended, Ye Yu would have to search for Xin Wan’en’s whereabouts in the Celestial Realm.
He mustn’t let her go astray like Lin Miaoxue.
That would cause trouble.
After wandering the Underworld for a week, Ye Yu returned again to his birthplace, Kuhan City.
There were two reasons for returning.
First, it was a remote small city where the Ye family still held considerable influence, perhaps a chance «N.o.v.e.l.i.g.h.t» for development.
Second, to check on his dream parents.
Honestly, Ye Dongfang was a decent person, easy to get along with.
However, what Ye Yu did not expect was that before he reached home,
he saw a circle of ghost creatures outside, bristling with hostility, unclear about their purpose.
Curious, Ye Yu walked straight over.
Only then did he realize that the ghosts gathered here were mostly members of the Ye family’s main sect.
"Huh, although Dad Ye Dongfang is the family head, this is not the time for family meetings, right?"
"And judging by their state, they are clearly angry!"
"What on earth is going on?"
Curious, Ye Yu prepared to flash inside and take a look.
