What! The Wives in My Dreams Are Real?!

Night.

Within the Zhenmo Mountain, the battles of the day had officially come to an end.

Both demonic cultivators and people from the Five Great Sacred Lands had already departed from this place.

But under the moonlight’s illumination, two young men clad in gray robes suddenly appeared.

Both wore a purple ring on their fingers, on which a faint “Ye” character was subtly visible.

Indeed, these two were the true descendants of the Ye family.

The one on the left was named Ye Xiuming, and the one on the right was Ye Xiumu.

Ye Xiumu slowly knelt down, closed his eyes, and placed one palm on the ground.

In an instant, the residual spiritual energy around them gathered into his body at an extremely fast rate.

In just a few breaths of time, Ye Xiumu opened his eyes and slowly stood up, saying, “We arrived too late. By daytime, this woman had already left the Zhenmo Mountain. Her current whereabouts are unknown.”

Ye Xiuming slightly raised his head, revealing a strange smile.

“Then let’s go find her. Once we do, you can have the Sword Heart, and I’ll use her body for my experiments. Three thousand years ago, the most powerful demon lord… it would be quite interesting to see what happens if I replace her heart with something else.”

Ye Xiumu slightly furrowed his brow, muttering, “Do whatever you want. I only want the Ye family’s Sword Heart!”

…

Zhuoxin Temple.

Lin Fengyuan stared at Ye Yu for a moment, unable to suppress a smile.

“Are you afraid that after thirty thousand years, I might go back on my word? Have you ever considered that if I truly wanted to renege, why would I keep you by my side? However, since you want me to say it, I’ll repeat it once more.”

Lin Fengyuan’s tone paused.

She sat up straight and said seriously, “Five hundred years at most! After five hundred years, I will voluntarily give the Pure Sword Heart to the Ye family. After that, we will have no further entanglements!”

Upon hearing this, Ye Yu pretended to frown.

“Is that all?”

“You don’t need to test me. My agreement with the Ye family is just this one condition. I’m sure you knew about it before you came to find me. I may have been sealed for thousands of years, but I am not muddle-headed. There’s no way you can deceive me!”

Perhaps due to the previous duck incident, even after such an explanation, Lin Fengyuan wasn’t angry. In fact, she maintained a smile throughout.

Ye Yu could sense Lin Fengyuan was not lying.

A five-hundred-year promise, the Pure Sword Heart?

What exactly is her relationship with the Ye family?

How did they come to such an agreement?

Seeing that Ye Yu did not speak, Lin Fengyuan assumed he might have other thoughts.

So, she spoke again, “I know five hundred years has long passed. It’s time to fulfill the promise. But these thirty thousand years were spent in confinement, so strictly speaking, it doesn’t count.”

“But it’s alright, in the shortest three days, and at most ten days, I will give you the Pure Sword Heart. After all, in the entire Central Continent, no one dares to make empty promises to the Ye family!”

This statement gave Ye Yu another useful clue.

No one dares?

Is the Ye family so powerful?

Why, nowadays, is there no mention of the Ye family’s name in the Central Continent?

Have they become a hidden family? Or have they faded into obscurity, completely gone?

Ye Yu asked softly, “Can you tell me about the Ye family from thirty thousand years ago? So much has happened over the years. My family never talks about the past, so I’m quite curious.”

Lin Fengyuan was silent for a moment, then said softly, “Thirty thousand years ago, the Central Continent did not have the Sacred Lands. The Ye family was an ancient and prestigious cultivation family.”

“They produced many talented individuals. At their peak, no one could overshadow them. Even I back then could not!”

“There was a saying at that time; All treasures in the world are with the Ye family. All difficulties in the world are not with the Ye family.”

“It meant that every valuable thing in the world was stored in the Ye family’s possession. And any difficult issue, once it reached the Ye family, ceased to be a challenge. Whoever wanted anything or wanted to do anything could seek the Ye family’s help. But the precondition was that you must have something the Ye family valued as an exchange. For example, my Pure Sword Heart!”

Ye Yu couldn’t help but be slightly moved.

From the fluctuations of spiritual energy, Lin Fengyuan was at least in the mid-stage of the Ascension Realm, and possibly even the late stage.

And even she couldn’t match the Ye family’s power back then?

Could it be that the Ye family of that era had someone stronger than Lin Fengyuan, the most powerful demonic cultivator?

What level was that?

Late Ascension Realm?

Or even peak Ascension?

Or perhaps, like that Taoist boy from the Western Frontier Continent, above Ascension?

Ye Yu couldn’t make sense of this question. Perhaps only someone who had truly seen the Ye family would know the answer.

And that famous saying did indeed sound impressive.

But… It also hinted at something crucial.

The Ye family had coveted Lin Fengyuan’s Pure Sword Heart.

When considering the previously mentioned five hundred-year promise, it’s very likely that Lin Fengyuan had exchanged the Pure Sword Heart for something.

What that was?

There was no way to know.

Ye Yu also refrained from asking further, afraid that asking too much might arouse Lin Fengyuan’s suspicion. That would be problematic.

Just as Ye Yu was about to change the topic, he suddenly noticed the surrounding spiritual energy starting to change.

It was a sign that someone was setting up a formation outside.

And Lin Fengyuan also looked outside, clearly aware of it.

The next moment, the door suddenly opened.

Tao Shanan walked in, softly saying, “Senior Lin, could you reconsider the matter I spoke to you about before? The Central Continent’s demonic path needs your help.”

Lin Fengyuan replied indifferently, “If I refuse, will you act against me?”

Tao Shanan gave a cold smile.

Although he said nothing, his attitude was clear.

Lin Fengyuan, who could dominate the demonic path thirty thousand years ago, wouldn’t easily be threatened.

She immediately sneered and raised her right hand.

A scorching aura suddenly swept across the scene, and the entirely crimson sword reappeared in her hand.

Then, Lin Fengyuan thrust the sword towards Tao Shanan.

In an instant, the sword’s brilliance flashed, and Tao Shanan was abruptly cleaved into two halves.

But to everyone’s surprise, Tao Shanan’s body suddenly transformed into stardust, vanishing without a trace.

No blood was seen.

A fake?

“Senior Lin, you seem quite weak. So weak that even the hand holding the sword is trembling slightly.”

Tao Shanan’s voice echoed from all directions simultaneously, making it impossible to discern his location.

Lin Fengyuan frowned slightly, noticing something was wrong.

She immediately tried to leave with Ye Yu, but was blocked by a layer of red light.

It was a formation barrier!

Lin Fengyuan thrust out a sword, and the barrier only rippled slightly, showing no signs of breaking.

This puzzled Lin Fengyuan greatly.

Even if she was weak now, with the Pure Sword Heart, her sword strike should be unstoppable. How could it not break a barrier?

While Lin Fengyuan was contemplating, countless blood demons, towering over ten zhang, crawled out from the ground, charging towards her.

These blood demons looked terrifying, but were actually very weak, merely in the Nascent Soul Realm.

Lin Fengyuan thrust out a sword, and the blood demons turned into dust instantly.

But soon after, a group of Divine Transformation Realm blood demons crawled out from the ground.

Lin Fengyuan thrust out another strike, repeating the previous action.

But these blood demons seemed endless. Every time a new batch appeared, they were a whole major realm stronger than the previous one.

By the time the third batch of blood demons appeared, they had already reached the Integration Realm.

Although they still posed no real threat, Lin Fengyuan feared that if she continued attacking, the next batch might be Tribulation Crossing blood demons.

So she could only keep moving and dodging.

Just as Lin Fengyuan found an opening to attempt breaking the barrier again, a wave of pain suddenly struck her.

Her body trembled, and she slowly descended.

Using one hand to support herself with her sword, she managed not to collapse completely.

Seeing this situation, Ye Yu’s expression became serious. He quickly asked, “What’s wrong with you?”
