At this moment, tears welled up continuously in Ruan Lianyue’s eyes.
Her heart was filled with more and more regret and guilt.
Seeing her in such a state, Ye Yu sighed, “Actually, you should have many questions in your heart. For instance, why didn’t I become the leader of the demon sect? And why didn’t I die, right?”
Ruan Lianyue nodded.
Ye Yu briefly recounted the parallel universe theory.
Then he continued, “Of course, you can also understand it as a dream. Back then, I was experiencing my first love, saw you, and liked you. Our subsequent encounters made me develop an obsession with you.”
“I fell madly in love with you.”
“But now, the dream has ended, and everything should be over!”
Upon hearing this, Ruan Lianyue felt an instant chill all over her body, as if she had been cast aside by the entire world.
Her eyes lost their previous brilliance.
Her mind was consumed by a single thought.
That Ye Yu no longer wanted her.
The most feared thing had come to pass as expected.
The sins she had committed with her own hands were now met with retribution.
What Ye Yu did wasn’t wrong. Yet, Ruan Lianyue could not accept this reality.
Tears continued to slide down her face.
She took off a storage ring from her hand and placed it on the table.
“Here are the spiritual fruits I picked for you with my own hands. Ninety-seven in total. You can eat them slowly.”
“Also…”
Ruan Lianyue took out the spiritual weapon, Forget Sorrow.
She carefully placed it on the table, and used a handkerchief to meticulously wipe it clean.
Then pushed it toward Ye Yu.
“This was the betrothal gift you gave me, so it should return to its original owner. I do not dare to ask for anything. I only hope that when you see this sword, or when you eat the spirit fruits, you might remember my name..”
“I’m sorry. Don’t hate me too much.”
“As we part ways today, I wish my husband’s heart to be as serene as spring in all four seasons.”
By the end of her speech, Ruan Lianyue was already sobbing uncontrollably.
Looking at the items on the table, Ye Yu couldn’t help but sigh.
Now he had a deeper understanding of the initial words from the dream system.
“Every dream is a new life for you!”
Indeed, every time he entered the dream realm, it was a brand-new life.
In that simulation, the person Ye Yu truly loved was the girl who gave him spirit fruits to eat during his lowest point as a youth.
At that time, he only thought that this woman was very beautiful and kind-hearted.
He dared not have excessive desires.
The word “love” could only be kept in his heart.
But if it weren’t for Ruan Lianyue, Ye Yu might not have been able to persevere.
Whenever he faced a new challenge, he would think of that spiritual fruit and Ruan Lianyue’s encouragement.
And because of this, the Ye Yu in the dream had such a strong obsession with Ruan Lianyue. Even willing to sacrifice everything.
Given the current situation, Ruan Lianyue was as sincere as can be.
Ye Yu even saw a hint of resignation in her eyes.
Honestly, Ye Yu didn’t want to see her do anything foolish.
So, after much thought, he pushed the spiritual weapon, Forget Sorrow, back toward her.
“The betrothal gift I gave you naturally belongs to you. Give me some time to think things over. When I’ve decided, I’ll naturally come to find you.”
Ruan Lianyue gripped the hem of her robe tightly.
Her heart filled with joy.
Does this mean there is still hope for a reversal?
For a moment, Ruan Lianyue couldn’t help but be excited. She asked shakily, “Really?”
Ye Yu nodded.
Ruan Lianyue smiled and wiped the tears from her face.
Outside the door.
Liang Yu and Yun Roumu stood quietly outside, trying to eavesdrop.
But the soundproof barrier inside the room made it impossible to hear anything.
This left the two women quite irritated.
They kept wondering, what exactly was happening inside?
Moments later.
The door to the room suddenly opened.
Liang Yu and Yun Roumu were startled.
They quickly stepped back and looked away, avoiding eye contact.
Ruan Lianyue, however, was completely unconcerned with their embarrassment.
Instead, she said earnestly, “Husband, during this time, I will walk the paths you once walked with me. I hope that when we meet again, I will hear a satisfactory answer.”
Ye Yu in the room did not speak, he only nodded.
Ruan Lianyue smiled lightly, her figure flashing as she left the spirit boat.
This situation left Liang Yu and Yun Roumu feeling bewildered.
Is this how one person is persuaded to leave?
What exactly did Ye Yu say to Ruan Lianyue that made her willingly depart?
“Liang Yu, come in!”
Upon hearing this, Liang Yu showed a hint of a smile.
She waved slightly at Yun Roumu.
The meaning was clear: to stay away from the door.
Yun Roumu felt truly offended by this gesture!
Just now, you were the one who came to eavesdrop. And now, I’m being told to leave?
It’s really too much!
Yun Roumu snorted coldly and strode to the front of the spirit boat.
Soon, Liang Yu entered the room.
The smile on her face instantly disappeared.
She was quite angry.
Because on Ye Yu’s face, there was still a lingering red mark.
Unbelievable.
How could Ruan Lianyue do such a thing?
Taking advantage when no one was around, huh?
Liang Yu strode forward.
She immediately went to work, rubbing the red mark off Ye Yu’s face.
“What exactly happened? Did she ambush you?”
Feeling the vigorous rubbing on his face, Ye Yu immediately understood.
His expression grew somewhat awkward.
To be honest, Ye Yu hadn’t expected that Ruan Lianyue would so proactively peck at his face before leaving.
Calling it an ambush wasn’t an exaggeration at all.
But having someone else discover it was even more embarrassing.
Ye Yu cleared his throat and pushed Liang Yu away.
Feigning calm, he said, “Don’t worry about these trivial details!”
Liang Yu, who had originally been about to sit down, stood up angrily.
“Trivial details? No, I want to know!”
With her character of never being at a disadvantage, Liang Yu took the initiative to start questioning.
Seeing this, Ye Yu pressed his palm against her face, pushing her down onto the seat.
What’s going on?
What’s really happening?
Don’t I get to save face?
Letting you all come at me like this?
Liang Yu, pushed down, looked at him with a deeply resentful expression, as if she were a neglected young wife.
To this, Ye Yu could only feel helpless.
“Alright, alright, I called you in to discuss serious matters. I’m heading back to Azure Cloud Sect soon. It’s not appropriate to bring you along; it’s time for you to leave.”
Liang Yu crossed her arms and said seriously, “I’m not leaving! I plan to follow you from now on.”
Ye Yu furrowed his brow slightly.
Ah, Liang Yu, Liang Yu.
Back in the dream world, we were just business partners, nothing more.
Why can’t you let go in reality?
Taking Liang Yu back to Azure Cloud Sect is absolutely unrealistic, it would undoubtedly affect many things.
Not to mention how troublesome it would be when the other dream heroines showed up.
Just dealing with Liang Yu’s persistent clinginess, Ye Yu wouldn’t even have a chance to enter dream simulations.
He initially wanted to force Liang Yu to leave immediately, but considering her previous clinginess, he had to give up.
After all, he had tried to set clear boundaries before.
Yet Liang Yu was was exceptionally persistent, completely disregarding everything else.
The more he rejected her, the clingier she would become.
After thinking it over, Ye Yu said seriously, “The matters from the parallel world are known only to a few of you. My current identity is as a disciple of the Azure Cloud Sect.”
“Taking you, an Integration Realm cultivator, back would inevitably be difficult to explain.”
Liang Yu smiled and said, “What’s the difficulty? Just say I’m your childhood betrothed. Now that we’ve met again, naturally we should be together.”
“Maybe your sect will be so happy they’ll even prepare a separate room just for the two of us. Then, we can live together as a couple. Wouldn’t that be even better?”
Ye Yu’s expression turned dark.
“Dream on! I’m currently in…”
“Hey, wait a minute. What are you doing? Why are you holding my hand?”
NICEEE!
