Not only Cai Linwang and the immortals of Spirit Nurturing Temple were shocked, but even Shangguan Jiujiu nearby couldn’t help but widen her eyes in surprise.
Clearly, she hadn’t expected a ghost immortal from Spirit Nurturing Temple to be embracing her husband Ye Yu.
However, she didn’t say much and only softened her gaze gradually.
Ye Yu’s parallel world theory had already deeply rooted in people’s minds.
Even demon witches like Bai Miaoleng and Bai Xichu believed it, let alone ghost creatures.
Surely this one here was someone Ye Yu had met in a parallel world as well.
Since that was the case, everyone naturally felt a bit more familiar and close.
Moreover, for Shangguan Jiujiu, as long as Ye Yu remained by her side, nothing else mattered.
But what none of the immortals there knew was that at this moment, the most stunned person was Ye Yu himself.
Looking at Xin Wan’en in his arms,
his entire mind instantly froze.
He couldn’t help but murmur, “Are you really Xin Wan’en? Then who is the one in that ice block?”
Hearing this, Xin Wan’en was puzzled.
“Yu’er, I really am your wife Xin Wan’en. What ice block are you talking about?”
Logically, ghost creatures were indeed cold, but there was quite a difference between cold and an ice block.
Like the difference between chill and frost.
Ye Yu scrutinized Xin Wan’en from head to toe, confirming that she was indeed the ghost bride he had met in the Underworld.
Since this one was real,
then the ice block inside Wu Wei Tower must be fake.
But what exactly was inside?
Ye Yu couldn’t figure it out, but he didn’t dwell too much on it.
Instead, he immediately turned to Shangguan Jiujiu and said, “Start contacting Zhu Diezhen.
Tell her to bring people to throw the ice block onto the immortal mountain near Wu Wei Tower and set up an isolation formation.
Keep adding cold energy to it so it remains frozen.
Everything else can wait until I return.”
It took only a few hours to return from here to Wu Wei Tower.
In theory, the ice block was still safe; the thawing time couldn’t be too short.
And with added cold energy, it could definitely remain frozen for longer.
It should be fine.
Once back, Ye Yu definitely wanted to see with his own eyes what was really inside.
At this moment, Cai Linwang again received the grand elder’s telepathic order to capture Xin Wan’en at all costs.
This was surely the greatest opportunity for Spirit Nurturing Temple’s rise.
To keep her, they must spare no effort.
This was also the sect leader’s instruction.
After receiving the order, Cai Linwang frowned slightly.
Damn it, you two are really assholes.
Always stressing how important this ghost immortal is to Spirit Nurturing Temple.
And spare no cost?
If it’s so important, why don’t you two show up yourselves?
Let me, the second elder, rush in?
Is that really sensible?
The other party is a genuine Golden Immortal.
Even if I took all the immortals of Spirit Nurturing Temple with me, we might not be able to beat him.
Under these circumstances, I’m really in trouble!
Since forceful capture isn’t working, I’ll have to use cunning!
Cai Linwang’s thoughts raced, then he said gravely: “Immortal Ye, if you give me this ghost immortal beside you, I will immediately agree to your previous request.
I will give you the cultivation technique as a gift. How about that?”
Hearing this, Ye Yu looked at Cai Linwang as if he were a fool.
His reason for wanting the method to convert ghost energy into immortal power was precisely to help Xin Wan’en.
Now Cai Linwang wanted him to hand her over?
Then what use was the cultivation technique?
Moreover, Xin Wan’en was already embracing him.
Hadn’t Cai Linwang noticed their unusual relationship?
He must be crazy!
If Ye Yu didn’t still want to get the cultivation technique for converting ghost energy from Spirit Nurturing Temple,
he would have smashed Cai Linwang on the spot long ago.
So Ye Yu pulled Xin Wan’en behind himself,
and said coldly, “This is my wife.
I advise you not to get any ideas.
Give me the cultivation technique now, and I’ll trade you something for it.
If you keep talking nonsense, you will die!”
As soon as he finished speaking, a murderous aura surged straight into the sky.
The surrounding auspicious clouds automatically dispersed.
Cai Linwang instantly felt a chill through his whole body, as if falling into an ice pit.
He struggled to suppress his fear and tried to speak: “Actually, immortals and ghosts cannot be united.
Many immortals have asked me before if they can take ghost creatures as partners.
I usually don’t recommend it.
Because that might—”
Before Cai Linwang could finish,
a strange formation appeared beneath his feet.
Black flames surged from his body,
instantly cutting him down on the spot.
This was the forbidden technique, Burning Blood Sky Flame.
Ye Yu’s expression was icy cold.
He had already told Cai Linwang not to spout nonsense.
But he still dared to prattle on here.
Really looking for death!
Seeing this, the immortals of Spirit Nurturing Temple were shocked to their cores.
They never expected this foreign immortal to kill someone in their sect without hesitation.
Were they really not afraid to die?
However, they were not fools either.
Seeing even the second elder Cai Linwang killed instantly,
they naturally wouldn’t come forward to die in vain.
They scattered, fleeing toward the main hall.
Shouting loudly, “Please, sect leader, save us!”
Ye Yu did not stop them.
He came to Spirit Nurturing Temple for the cultivation technique to convert ghost energy into immortal power,
not to make enemies.
The reason he killed Cai Linwang was because that man insulted him first.
If the sect leader came out and reasoned, a trade could be made.
But if they acted like Cai Linwang—unreasonable and vengeful for their second elder,
Ye Yu would show them what real irrationality meant.
Surprisingly,
dozens of immortals gathered outside the main hall, continuously shouting for the sect leader’s help.
But no response came.
This terrified them deeply.
Some braved entering the main hall, only to find it empty.
What? The sect leader isn’t here?
Is this sect doomed?
For a moment, the place was deathly silent.
Everyone’s eyes filled with terror as they looked at Ye Yu.
Just as they were about to flee,
a figure suddenly appeared atop the main hall.
Seeing him arrive,
the disciples who had been trembling suddenly found courage.
They knelt on one knee and shouted loudly, “Greetings, Grand Elder! Please save us!
This immortal actually °• N 𝑜 v 𝑒 l i g h t •° killed Second Elder Cai Linwang in our Spirit Nurturing Temple.
Not even leaving a shred of soul behind.
It’s as if he disregards you and the sect leader!”
Indeed, the newcomer was none other than the grand elder Wang Shangshang.
He had just been guiding Cai Linwang by telepathic message and directing his actions.
