In an instant, several invisible streams of energy completely locked onto Ye Yu.
Around the perimeter of the Star-Shifting Pavilion, golden Dao ~Nоvеl𝕚ght~ seals flowed slowly—an unmistakable sign that the immortal sect’s great formation was fully activated.
It looked formidable, but Ye Yu knew all too well that this sect formation was weak.
Otherwise, Qin Xihe wouldn’t have been in such a hurry to invite him here to restore the formation and serve as an elder of the sect.
The next moment,
Lü Wanzhu and a dozen or so Star-Shifting Pavilion fairies appeared at the entrance of the sect.
“Star-Shifting Pavilion is a restricted area of the immortal sect. Outsiders are not welcome. Please leave immediately!”
Hearing this,
Ye Yu felt a surge of joy. It seemed Lü Wanzhu and the other fairies didn’t have the memories from the dream.
This was truly fortunate, saving him a lot of trouble.
Especially Lü Wanzhu—she was truly proactive.
Back when Ye Yu was in the Star-Shifting Pavilion, she had been a real headache.
Now, seeing her cold expression, he couldn’t help but feel quite pleased.
“I have no intention of entering the Star-Shifting Pavilion. I came only to find my wife, her name is Luo Ning. I wonder if she is here with you?”
Upon hearing this, the dozen fairies began whispering among themselves.
Clearly, they couldn’t tell if Ye Yu was telling the truth or lying.
But Lü Wanzhu immediately snorted coldly, “What, a new version update? Trying a new trick to lure someone out, right?
Let me tell you, no way.
Leave quickly now, or don’t blame me if I activate the sect’s formation to attack right this moment!”
At this time, a nearby Star-Shifting Pavilion fairy whispered softly, “Senior sister, how can you say that? He looks quite handsome and doesn’t seem like a bad person. Maybe he really is that woman’s husband?”
Lü Wanzhu frowned tightly. “Are you infatuated? Just because he’s handsome doesn’t mean he’s not a bad person. Think about it—Luo Ning said she just ascended to the Heavenly Realm, still hasn’t fully converted her spiritual energy into immortal power. How could she already have a husband?
Please, use your brain next time.”
Hearing this, the fairies nodded repeatedly.
Senior sister was indeed incredibly wise.
What they didn’t know was that Ye Yu had already heard all their whispers crystal clear.
After all, the sect’s formation around the Star-Shifting Pavilion was nothing unfamiliar to Ye Yu.
The soundproofing array above could be broken at will.
But precisely because of this, Ye Yu almost got infuriated on the spot.
This “wisdom”? This was just unreasonable stubbornness.
No matter what, they probably did it for Luo Ning’s safety.
So Ye Yu forced himself to stay calm and said in a deep voice, “Give me Luo Ning. Then I can prove my identity!”
Lü Wanzhu still shook her head, “Don’t dream. Everyone inside the Star-Shifting Pavilion is one of us. There is no one you’re looking for. You should leave quickly!”
Seeing she was impervious to reason,
Ye Yu was too lazy to waste more words. He immediately focused his mind and completely dismantled the sect’s formation.
His figure flickered and instantly appeared in front of Lü Wanzhu.
This scene instantly drained color from her face.
With both her master and senior uncle absent, their greatest reliance now was the sect’s formation.
But now, this man had effortlessly torn it open completely.
This alone showed his cultivation far surpassed theirs.
Lü Wanzhu and the others now felt like lambs led to slaughter, utterly without any sense of security.
“I—I warn you, don’t act rashly!
My master is a powerful Immortal Lord, and my senior uncle is a mighty Immortal King.
If you dare—”
With no other options, Lü Wanzhu wanted to invoke Qin Xihe and Jiang Yumo’s authority to scare him off.
But halfway through, she suddenly stopped.
She seemed to regain her usual vigor.
Because she saw a familiar figure suddenly appear ahead.
Lü Wanzhu raised one hand high and shouted loudly, “Senior uncle, help! This person is trespassing into the Star-Shifting Pavilion!”
Indeed, the one who restored Lü Wanzhu’s confidence was Jiang Yumo.
In her heart, senior uncle was an Immortal King-level powerhouse, truly standing at the very top of the Heavenly Realm’s pyramid.
With senior uncle here, all problems would be easily solved.
In fact, it wasn’t just Lü Wanzhu who thought so—all the fairies of the Star-Shifting Pavilion present believed the same.
They could even imagine Ye Yu being killed on the spot.
After all, Jiang Yumo had just done something similar yesterday.
Today, doing it again shouldn’t be difficult.
What Lü Wanzhu and the others never expected was that senior uncle Jiang Yumo would come directly to Ye Yu and affectionately pinch his cheek.
At that moment, everyone there was petrified.
Senior uncle, are you serious with that action?
You came here to uphold justice, but instead you get cozy with the enemy?
Where is the Star-Shifting Pavilion’s ancestral teaching? Where is your senior uncle’s prestige?
Feeling the pain on his cheek, Ye Yu immediately took half a step back, his eyes filled with endless confusion.
What is going on here?
Jiang Yumo exclaimed joyfully, “Ye Yu, I didn’t expect to see you here. You’re still alive?”
Hearing this, Ye Yu frowned tightly.
He had considered many possibilities before.
Maybe besides An Jinqiu, Qin Xihe also retained memories.
After all, that woman in the dream also liked him.
But he never imagined Jiang Yumo would have dream memories.
This clearly exceeded expectations.
She shouldn’t qualify for having dream memories, right?
Ye Yu asked in disbelief, “You... remember me?”
Jiang Yumo smiled beautifully and sent a mental voice transmission: “1+1+1!”
That familiar code was her crazy message from before.
She planned for herself, Qin Xihe, and Lü Wanzhu—three people—to keep Ye Yu behind.
Though they failed, no one should have forgotten this signal.
As expected, Ye Yu’s face instantly changed drastically.
Seeing their familiar interaction, Lü Wanzhu felt extremely uncomfortable.
She slowly moved behind Jiang Yumo and whispered, “Senior uncle? You know this immortal? He doesn’t seem friendly.”
“Friendly? Very friendly! Extremely friendly!”
Jiang Yumo couldn’t stop smiling.
Now she was far ahead of An Jinqiu and Qin Xihe, the first to find Ye Yu.
As long as she held onto this opportunity, she could keep Ye Yu completely by her side.
Lü Wanzhu frantically scratched her head.
She couldn’t understand why senior uncle was so enthusiastic toward this man.
She even said such things.
So she reminded again, “Senior uncle, this man claims he’s here to find his immortal consort—the fairy we hid before, the one being chased by the Three Corpses Hall. I suspect he might also be sent by the Three Corpses Hall!”
As expected, Jiang Yumo’s expression changed instantly.
She hurriedly asked in a low voice, “You have an immortal consort?”
