In the Heavenly Realm, inside the Wu Wei Tower.
Ye Yu looked at Wei Aoshu, who seemed somewhat reserved, his eyes full of shock.
Strictly speaking, Wei Aoshu was the first woman Ye Yu met in reality after transmigrating into Qingyun Sect.
Without Senior Sister Wei, Ye Yu would never have become a disciple under Master Hong Luan, nor would subsequent events have unfolded.
Therefore, Wei Aoshu held a very ◆ Nоvеlіgһt ◆ (Only on Nоvеlіgһt) special place in his heart.
But now, seeing this former Senior Sister Wei in the Heavenly Realm felt somewhat surreal.
It shouldn’t be this way.
When Ye Yu ascended, Wei Aoshu was only at the late Golden Core Realm.
How much time had passed since then?
Not even the powerful wives like Hong Luan, Tuoba Qiyue, or Gan Duoduo had ascended yet.
How could she have taken the lead?
Zhu Diezhen stood nearby, smiling brightly. She frankly said that when she saw Wei Aoshu this morning, her expression was exactly the same as Ye Yu’s—completely in disbelief.
Wei Aoshu had managed a sudden breakthrough, ascending ahead of everyone else.
Coincidentally, Zhu Diezhen had gone out today and happened to meet Wei Aoshu just after her ascension.
All of this could only be described as fate.
“Meeting an old friend in a foreign land” is rightly called one of life’s four greatest joys.
Honestly, Zhu Diezhen was truly happy upon seeing Wei Aoshu.
Later, recalling her acquaintance with Ye Yu, she brought Wei Aoshu here.
She even carefully crafted a little suspense earlier to surprise Ye Yu.
From current appearances, it worked well.
Meanwhile, the system voice suddenly sounded:
【This dream sequence ends.】
【Ghost age: 93 years.】
Hearing this, Ye Yu didn’t have time to speak with Wei Aoshu. He lightly waved and turned aside.
This action puzzled Wei Aoshu.
What was going on?
Was Ye Yu unhappy to see her?
Thinking this, Wei Aoshu lowered her head slightly and instinctively stepped back half a pace.
Zhu Diezhen was also somewhat baffled.
Her gaze flickered between Ye Yu and Wei Aoshu.
Were they hiding something from her?
It had to be said: women’s thoughts were indeed much more delicate than men’s.
Ye Yu’s action was simply to carefully listen to the system’s reward announcement.
He had no other thoughts.
【Dream evaluation: Perfect-】
【Randomly obtained two dream rewards.】
【One, cultivation at mid-Heaven Ghost Realm, age 92.】
(Detected host currently in Heavenly Realm, automatically converted to mid-Heaven Immortal Realm.)
【Two, Divine Control Heart Technique, complete mastery.】
【Dream evaluation rating above Excellent+, randomly materialized two items.】
【One, Night Walk of Ten Thousand Ghosts Map.】
【Two, handwritten letter from the bamboo house.】
【Dream comment: The host’s performance in this dream was noteworthy.】
【The host tried many things, experienced failures, but never gave up.】
【Finally found the fastest shortcut method, achieving a rapid rise.】
【However, accidentally trespassing another’s territory and coinciding with ghost energy revival caused premature dream end.】
【Calculation shows, if not for this, the host would have refreshed cultivation records again in this dream.】
【But no matter, keep going and improve.】
Upon hearing this, Ye Yu frowned slightly and quickly communicated with the system again.
“Wait, you said I trespassed someone else’s territory? That egg-like thing, what exactly was it?”
“Reply to host: According to detection, it is a Ghost King Realm ghost creature.”
Receiving this answer, Ye Yu was speechless.
Could it be any more coincidental?
Ghost energy just revived, and he happened to trespass on a Ghost King powerhouse’s domain.
Really want to play a solo 9 with you.
Because it’s truly awesome!
Ye Yu exhaled slowly, rubbing his storage ring.
He clearly felt the rewards had arrived; the Night Walk of Ten Thousand Ghosts Map was inside.
But the handwritten letter kept in the bamboo house had not come.
It must have gone to Ying Naiyan.
Hmm, that’s fine, hopefully it will give her proper guidance.
The only flaw was that this cultivation gain wasn’t high.
Why couldn’t it have been the peak Underworld Ghost Realm directly?
So stingy.
Ye Yu shook his head slightly.
Then turned around, ready to speak with Zhu Diezhen and Wei Aoshu, but noticed their expressions were strange.
Huh? What’s going on?
“Why do you both look so complicated?”
Wei Aoshu forced a smile and whispered, “N-nothing.”
Zhu Diezhen gave Ye Yu a meaningful glance.
He looked puzzled.
With a wave of her sleeve, Zhu Diezhen whispered, “Xiao Wei, go find Lin Miaoxue first. Let her arrange a room for you to rest and convert your spiritual energy into immortal power.”
“I’ll come see you tonight.”
Wei Aoshu agreed happily and left.
But she no longer looked happy; instead, she seemed quite disappointed.
Ye Yu noticed this small detail clearly.
“Huh, Senior Sister Wei seems a bit strange. What’s wrong?”
“What, don’t you know? Tell me, do you two have some story?”
Zhu Diezhen put one hand on her hip, giving Ye Yu an assessing look.
It had to be said, at times women’s reasoning power suddenly soared to a frightening height.
Every word and action could lead them to many conclusions.
And Ye Yu’s action just now—raising his hand and turning away—was suspicious to the extreme.
Coupled with Wei Aoshu’s sudden disappointment.
There must be some connection.
So Zhu Diezhen sent Wei Aoshu away first to talk with Ye Yu alone.
She didn’t mind an extra sister.
She just didn’t want Ye Yu hiding anything.
But honestly, Ye Yu was truly innocent.
“By heaven and earth, Senior Sister Wei and I are perfectly innocent; there’s absolutely no story.”
Zhu Diezhen pointed to the bamboo house.
“Come on, let’s go inside and talk properly.”
Ye Yu covered his face with one hand, then followed Zhu Diezhen into the bamboo cottage.
After several hours of careful explanation,
Zhu Diezhen finally began to believe Ye Yu might really have nothing with Wei Aoshu.
But why did they both react like that?
Hearing this question, Ye Yu felt speechless.
“I was just... thinking about something, so I was focused.”
“As for why Senior Sister Wei felt disappointed, I don’t know.”
“Oh, and I remember she was only at Golden Core Realm before, right?”
“How did she suddenly ascend?”
