【Anyway, the parents in this dream really don’t make things easy.】
【Even have to gossip about their own son’s matters.】
【Truly classic!】
【Still, Ye Yu thought it necessary to advise Ye Chuang to watch his words and behavior.】
【What’s this nonsense about “the arm can’t win against the thigh”?】
【If you don’t understand, can you please not talk nonsense!】
Before Ye Chuang could respond,
Ye Yu’s younger sister Ye Wanqing walked in from outside.
“Brother, what do you mean ‘we don’t understand’? We are the demons closest to the truth.”
“The Demon King expressed his feelings to you first, but you kept refusing.”
“How long did you resist? Didn’t you end up together anyway?”
“Just now, I even called the Demon King ‘sister-in-law’.”
“She gave me two storage rings, filled with heavenly materials and treasures.”
“And told me to share them with Mom and Dad.”
Ye Wanqing spoke proudly as she lifted the storage ring in her hand.
Ye Yu wanted to say something but hesitated.
Forget it, he almost got caught in that trap.
The family in this dream was famously impossible to reason with.
Better to save effort and stay quiet, reducing internal friction.
So Ye Yu sighed again and left the Blessed Land Cave.
Soon, Luo Ning guessed Ye Yu’s thoughts.
She stepped forward to defend, declaring all previous rumors untrue.
Claims like Demon King CEO romance were entirely illusions.
Now, she and Ye Yu were truly in love and had recently decided to be together.
Furthermore, from now on, no rumors would be allowed on Yingning Mountain—only diligent cultivation.
Anyone who disobeyed would face severe punishment.
Thanks to Luo Ning’s efforts, rumors on Yingning Mountain quickly ceased.
But none of that mattered much.
Time flew.
Half a month passed in the blink of an eye.
Under Feng Zhenxin’s heavy reward, the Divine Sea Society in Ba’an Sea was completely wiped out.
Of course, the main reason was the deaths of An Ce and Qu Wenmiao.
Without leaders, they couldn’t last long.
Once cleanup finished,
Ye Yu immediately took Luo Ning and Qing Rui back into Ba’an Sea
to inform them of the Divine Sea Society’s destruction.
Both women were very excited.
After all, they were aquatic demons—who would want to stay on land if they could return to the sea?
Especially Luo Ning, who had been nervously writing so much lately!
But it wasn’t that nothing changed.
For some unknown reason, since being with Ye Yu,
Luo Ning’s speech seemed smoother.
Now, she could say up to five words at once on land.
Luo Ning was quite curious about this.
Her mother Qing Rui seemed to know the reason but didn’t reveal it directly.
Instead, she told Luo Ning that her speech would become increasingly fluent.
When Luo Ning pressed further, Qing Rui remained silent.
This troubled her.
But since she could now speak freely back in the sea, there was no need to obsess over it.
In Luo Ning’s imagination,
she would live happily with Ye Yu,
and shoulder the mission to revive the Li Water Clam Demon Clan.
But this was only imagination.
After just two sweet days in the water,
Ye Yu proposed leaving.
The reason was simple—the battle with An Ce left a deep impression.
The big catfish’s words were harsh but true.
Ye Yu wielded many top-tier techniques, able to unleash power far beyond his realm.
But the Golden Demon Realm was still just that—barely enough to kill early Demon King Realm An Ce.
What if he met a mid or late Demon King Realm opponent?
So, swiftly improving cultivation to reach the Demon Lord Realm was the right path.
That way, he would have more confidence to face unknown risks.
Absolute strength is the foundation of all good things.
This logic applied not only in the demon realm but across all six realms.
After hearing Ye Yu’s explanation about wanting to grow stronger,
Luo Ning, though reluctant, had to let go.
Because she knew love isn’t about restraint.
Before leaving, Luo Ning begged Ye Yu to come see her once about every six months if possible.
Seeing his wife’s pitiful expression,
Ye Yu naturally didn’t refuse.
He even set the standard at once every three months.
“Come back every three months; if all ❖ Nоvеl𝚒ght ❖ (Exclusive on Nоvеl𝚒ght) goes well, I won’t leave again!”
Luo Ning was very happy about this.
After saying goodbye,
Ye Yu did not leave Ba’an Sea,
but went to a tranquil sea area.
He activated his automatic cultivation mode.
This was a plan arranged long ago—after all, the fastest way to increase cultivation was through automatic training.
Also, activating automatic cultivation in the sea
might yield unexpected treasures.
Ye Yu’s soul body slowly floated up again,
and the moment automatic cultivation took over his body,
he immediately headed east.
After a short time,
he returned to a familiar place—
the old lair of the Divine Sea Society branch.
Seeing this scene puzzled Ye Yu.
He had already completely looted this place after reading An Ce’s memories.
Why was automatic cultivation leading him here again?
Could there be hidden things unknown even to An Ce?
Ye Yu entered the main hall of the Divine Sea Society branch,
and suddenly threw a punch that shattered the throne symbolizing power.
The next second,
countless dazzling demonic runes lit up the floor, emitting a dim green glow.
Immediately after, a teleportation array to darkness appeared.
“Ye Yu” walked straight in.
Darkness instantly swallowed him completely.
When light returned,
“Ye Yu” had arrived in a brand-new great hall.
On both sides stood grotesque divine statues.
Besides that, the layout was quite similar to the Divine Sea Society branch hall.
Wait, there was even An Ce’s divine statue here.
But it wasn’t prominent—it stood at the entrance.
Why did this place feel so familiar?
Soul-body Ye Yu suddenly opened his eyes wide.
The reason this place felt familiar was because in An Ce’s memories, this was the Divine Sea Society’s headquarters.
Every hundred years during tribute,
An Ce would come to this place.
Purely looking for trouble, big shot!
If memory served, the current Divine Sea Society leader, Chu Shouhe, was right here!
That guy was truly a peak Demon King Realm.
