After a Moment.
The cultivators of the Da Xia Dynasty and the Nirvana Palace were all slain.
Xiang Yuansheng and Ning Zhi, the two masterminds behind the assassination plot against Ye Yu,
were brought back to the imperial palace of the Da Yong Dynasty.
This was arranged by Huangfu Baizhi.
In her words,
those who dared to assassinate Ye Yu should not die easily.
They should be tortured and suffer immensely.
After dealing with the situation there,
everyone returned to the imperial city of the Da Yong Dynasty together.
Throughout the journey,
Liang Yu clung to Ye Yu’s arm.
No matter how he tried to shake her off,
Liang Yu showed no signs of letting go.
This left Ye Yu feeling quite helpless.
He had clearly noticed
that after Liang Yu's arrival, Huangfu Baizhi’s expression had changed somewhat.
Moreover,
the most troublesome part was that
Huangfu Baizhi had not resumed riding in the dragon cart during the journey.
Instead, she flew back through the air,
leaving her original position for Liang Yu.
This situation made things a bit complicated.
Ye Yu began to secretly speculate
whether Huangfu Baizhi was feeling jealous due to Liang Yu's presence.
What should he do about that?
Inside the Imperial City.
Liang Yu looked at Ye Yu with a serious expression.
Unable to resist, she quietly asked, “Did I arrive at an inopportune time?”
Although Liang Yu usually seemed carefree,
she was quite perceptive and thoughtful.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t have been able to rise to the status of a high-level cultivator in the perilous world of cultivation as a rogue.
Ye Yu chuckled, “When is it ever an inopportune time? Since you’re here, there’s no need for more words.”
Upon hearing this,
Liang Yu revealed an enchanting smile.
Ye Yu instinctively reached out to stroke her hair.
Of course, his own woman should be cherished by him.
Otherwise...
Ye Yu suddenly stiffened.
He looked down at Liang Yu.
“Wait a minute, why did you suddenly come back to the imperial city with me?”
“You’re my husband! Although I don’t know how you became the emperor of the Northern Wasteland, it doesn’t matter. Wherever you go, I go!”
Liang Yu stepped closer again,
wrapping her arms around Ye Yu’s arm.
At this moment,
Ye Yu was engulfed in a mental whirlwind.
Wait a minute, let’s sort this out from the beginning.
First, there was an assassination attempt.
And the one who attempted the assassination was Liang Yu.
Since Liang Yu liked him, she naturally wouldn’t do anything dangerous.
Their embrace during the meeting wasn’t a big deal.
But now that the matter had been resolved and the culprit caught,
why on earth would Liang Yu want to come back with him?
And why was she calling him husband again?
That’s right.
Liang Yu had said she wanted to gather a dowry to marry him.
But Ye Yu swore to the heavens,
he had never stated that he would accept Liang Yu!
Why did it suddenly feel like their relationship had progressed so much?
From an agreement to a loving partnership?
Was this the speed of sword flight?
The more Ye Yu thought about it, the more he felt something was off.
But looking at Liang Yu, who was almost hanging on him,
he could only sigh in resignation.
Forget it.
It was time to fulfill the tribulation agreement they had established back then.
Moreover,
seeing Liang Yu like this,
it was clear she wouldn’t leave no matter what.
Since that was the case,
it would be better to keep her around for now.
However, since she had come to be his partner,
Ye Yu wouldn’t let the interest go unpaid.
He pulled Liang Yu aside and began to write the Kun Character Formula.
...
Two Hours Later.
Ye Yu arrived at the door of Huangfu Baizhi's room.
He discovered she was reading inside.
This made Ye Yu feel even more unusual.
It should be noted that
Huangfu Baizhi had never been one to read books before.
Was this the prelude to a storm?
“Your Majesty, since you’ve come, why not come in?
Are you afraid I’ll eat you?”
Huangfu Baizhi’s voice suddenly rang out.
For transcendent cultivators,
with their divine sense, they could perceive everything within a thousand miles.
And Ye Yu was merely a wall away from Huangfu Baizhi.
He naturally understood.
Ye Yu took a deep breath.
Then he walked straight into the room.
“I would be more than happy if you could eat me.
But I saw you were reading, so I didn’t want to disturb you.
By the way, it’s really rare for you to be reading. Is it military tactics?”
In response,
Huangfu Baizhi raised the book in her hand.
The cover clearly read four big characters:
The Virtues of Da Yong Women!
To be honest,
when Ye Yu saw those four characters, he could hardly believe his eyes.
Shock washed over him—his queen was actually reading about women's virtues!
Was this the same book as the one on Blue Star?
Huangfu Baizhi looked at Ye Yu’s surprised expression
and hurriedly explained, “Your Majesty, as the queen,
I must set an example for the world.
Logically speaking,
I should assist you and take charge of selecting concubines.
But unexpectedly, my sister came by herself.
That’s truly unacceptable.
So I’m reading about women’s virtues to improve myself.”
“Selecting... concubines?”
Ye Yu's voice trembled slightly.
Could this really be the ultimate dream of a man?
Huangfu Baizhi said naturally, “That’s right. Selecting concubines to fill the palace for you is my duty as your queen.
By the way,
Your Majesty, I suggest that since that sister has already entered the palace, it’s best to give her a title sooner rather than later.”
Upon hearing this,
Ye Yu was utterly flabbergasted.
For a moment,
he didn’t know what to say.
Having a partner like Huangfu Baizhi was truly an earthly ideal.
She had single-handedly established a dynasty,
allowed him to become emperor,
and just a few days after their marriage,
when another woman came to find him,
her first reaction was not jealousy,
but rather to read about women’s virtues to improve herself.
It was simply astonishing.
With a wife like this, what more could he ask for?
A Few Days Later.
Under Huangfu Baizhi’s strong request,
Ye Yu “reluctantly” took Liang Yu as a consort.
To this,
Liang Yu was overjoyed.
In her heart,
titles like queen or consort were meaningless.
As long as she could be with Ye Yu,
everything else didn’t matter.
A few days after their wedding,
Ye Yu initially intended to leave.
But looking at the two women he had just given titles to, the queen and the consort,
he ultimately decided to wait a little longer.
Otherwise, with Liang Yu's clingy nature, she would definitely not let him go easily.
Moreover,
since Huangfu Baizhi was so understanding, he ought to spend a few more days with her as a reward.
But while he delayed leaving,
simulation had to continue.
It had been so long since he last simulated.
His luck should have built up quite a bit by now.
It was time to emerge!
Ye Yu informed Huangfu Baizhi and Liang Yu
that he was about to break through.
He needed a safe and quiet place for seclusion.
Huangfu Baizhi and Liang Yu immediately found a secluded and blessed place for him to use.
They also arranged for a large number of cultivators
to guard nearby for Ye Yu.
Originally, Huangfu Baizhi and Liang Yu planned to assist personally.
But Ye Yu stopped them.
“As long as I’m not disturbed, there’s no need to make such a fuss!”
Upon hearing this,
Huangfu Baizhi and Liang Yu could only give up.
Ye Yu couldn’t help but let out a long breath.
It was just a dream.
There was no need to make such a big deal out of it.
That was over the top!
Ye Yu held his breath and focused.
After regaining his calm state of mind, he slowly closed his eyes.
He began the simulation!
