Cultivation: the Rise of a Live-In Son-In-Law

Chapter 167: Youluo Has a Dream—Did Lu Ye Help Her Expel the Poison?!


Sure enough, a moment later, a divine soul emerged from Yin Wuya's body.

Yin Wuya was filled with resentment; he had just escaped from the seal not long ago, and the suitable body he had finally found was shattered within days!

He looked around, and when his gaze fell upon that black-clothed man, Yin Wuya couldn't help but shudder internally. A Star Divine Body! Celestial Tier Sword Technique, and a mysterious Divine Technique!

This combination, even placed in the era of a hundred thousand years ago among the Grandmaster Realm, was extremely formidable.

As thoughts of retreat arose in his mind, seeing his entourage of evil cultivators mostly dead or injured, Yin Wuya's divine soul emitted a ripple in the void, ready to flee.

Standing opposite him, Lu Ye's eyes suddenly sharpened. If Yin Wuya were to escape and return later...

The danger would be immense!

Once more, Lu Ye drew about half of the Grandmaster's Source Qi from the Dantian Qi Sea, his gaze fierce as a second Divine Source Breaking Body Formless Sword Qi shot out violently!

Moments later, just as Yin Wuya's divine soul was about to rush out of the Fog Forest, he let out a roar and exploded directly!

In the clearing of the Fog Forest, Youluo was dumbfounded, staring at the silhouette of the black-clothed Lu Ye, a rare glint of fear flashed across her eyes.

He could actually perform a Divine Technique?!

Even though she didn't know what kind of Divine Technique it was, it seemed far more domineering than Yin Wuya's Infinite Demon Eye!

Among the temporarily surviving evil cultivators, Wu De was one of them.

In less than ten minutes, Wu De felt like he had journeyed from the clouds to hell!

Ten minutes ago, Wu De was high-spirited, already envisioning the future.

He fantasized about one day stepping on the proud Red Cloud Fairy of the Northern Territory.

Ten minutes later...

Even the Lord Guardian, whom he admired fanatically and who hailed from the ancient Celestial Demon Divine Sect of one hundred thousand years ago, was slain on the spot!

Even his divine soul could not be preserved!

Looking at the heap of slain evil cultivators, Wu De was engulfed in fear, and with a thud, he knelt in the direction of Lu Ye and Youluo.

"Heroes... spare me! I am an Inner Sect Disciple of the Red Cloud Sect. I was coerced by this demon to join unwillingly. I have been seeking an opportunity to gather information and escape the demon's lair all along!"

As he glanced at the completely dissipated Infinite Demon Eye, Lu Ye sheathed the Mortal Tier Longsword, noticing cracks already covering it.

Previously, the battles were mostly overwhelming, so the shortcomings of such a weapon with extremely ordinary materials as a Mortal Tier Longsword did not surface.

But facing such a troublesome old demon like Yin Wuya, its inadequacy immediately became apparent.

If Lu Ye hadn't intentionally enveloped it with Source Qi earlier, it might have shattered completely upon colliding with the demon's light.

After all, it was bought by Jiang Lingyue and given to him, so after some thought, Lu Ye placed it in his Storage Ring as a memento.

At this time, Wu De's plea for mercy reached his ears.

Lu Ye was taken aback, this name...

When he first entered the Fog Forest, Yin Wuya exerted significant pressure, and Lu Ye hadn't even paid attention to the appearances of the evil cultists around them.

Upon a closer look now, it was indeed Wu De from the Red Cloud Sect.

Youluo didn't care much about what sect it was, steadily slaying the evil followers trying to escape.

Moments later, she reached the pleading Wu De.

Faced with the black-robed man who seemed like a "demon," Wu De's legs turned to jelly as he toppled over in fear of death.

If Wu De didn't fear death, he wouldn't have agreed to become Yin Wuya's follower and switch to cultivating the Great Celestial Demon Ancestor Technique.

Just as the black-robed man's cold killing intent enveloped him, suddenly, a voice came from the distance.

"Wait, you go handle the others, as for this person, leave it to me."

Youluo glanced back, said nothing, and nodded.

Initially, Youluo thought that Lu Ye in the distance was a lucky fellow who latched onto the main support.

However, after today's battle, Youluo realized... he seemed quite extraordinary too!

At the very least, having early-stage strength of the Grandmaster Ninth Layer, and under the constraint of a restriction seal, Youluo had confidence in taking down the old Myriad Laws Sect leader.

Yet she didn't have much confidence in overcoming Lu Ye, who manifested a Divine Body.

So, her acceptance of the title of the main support's husband increased significantly.

Wu De finally let out a breath of relief, feeling as if he had narrowly escaped death.

Lu Ye took a few steps forward, appearing in front of Wu De.

"Thank you, hero! Thank you!" Wu De quickly said, "I'm a disciple of the Red Cloud Sect, deeply valued by the sect. Here's my disciple token, for your inspection..."

"That won't be necessary," Lu Ye said casually, "You should know me."

As the words fell, Lu Ye pulled down the cloth covering his face.

Wu De was puzzled initially, how could he know such a top-tier cultivator on par with, or even surpassing, the sect leader and the Red Cloud Fairy?

But when Lu Ye removed the covering, Wu De's face instantly turned ashen.

Lu Ye... how could he not know him?!

From being a well-regarded Inner Sect Disciple to attending Lu Ye's marriage banquet, it was merely due to a wrong word spoken after being drunk.

Returning to the sect, his status plummeted, and he was dispatched to reclaim land at the Black Stone Wilderness!

While at Black Stone Wilderness, Wu De almost cursed Lu Ye daily.

Unexpectedly, today in the Miasma Mist Forest... he actually encountered this Jiang Family son-in-law?!

"You... You... how are you a Martial Arts Grandmaster?!"

Wu De was utterly bewildered and terrified, slipping into a state of mental shock.

Over two years ago, he personally accompanied Lu Ye, sending him into the Jiang Family as a Servant Disciple!

Compared to his horrifying pace of advancement, Wu De let out a bitter laugh, even his cultivation of the Great Celestial Demon Ancestor Technique seemed somewhat laughable now.

However, clinging to a slim hope for survival, Wu De shamelessly pleaded.

"I know I've wronged you, I'm despicable. Considering we were once fellow disciples of the Red Cloud Sect... could you spare me? I'm begging you, Brother Lu Ye!"

Lu Ye let out a cold chuckle, spare you?

Just then, a fierce attack suddenly descended.

Wu De's head was decisively separated from his body, fear and pleading still etched on his face even in death.

Turning his head, Lu Ye saw Youluo approaching from the side.

"Why did you act?"

Youluo's cool face showed a hint of disdain, "He said he wronged you, so he must have done something to harm you. Such a person deserves to die."

"I feared you'd be soft-hearted, so I acted."

Lu Ye shook his head slightly; he'd never spare an enemy.

...

A moment later, Lu Ye took out the Bone-Dissolving Powder, gathered the spoils from the bodies, and dealt with the remains.

By this time, Youluo's face had taken on a bluish hue as the poison fully took effect.

"Let's go quickly... the poison is quite potent," Youluo, feeling dizzy, pulled Lu Ye as they rapidly left the Miasma Mist Forest.

A hundred miles away, by a stream, Youluo drank a large amount of clear water but still felt the poison spreading in her body.

"I can't hold on, how about you?"

Turning her head toward Lu Ye, Youluo spoke before collapsing, fainting onto the stony shore.

Seeing her fall straight, Lu Ye thought for a moment and reached out to support her.

Gazing down at that consistently cold face turned ashen, Lu Ye surveyed their surroundings and left the place with the unconscious Youluo.

...

No one knew how long had passed, but Youluo had a dream.

In the dream, the young man in linen whom she initially thought was just lucky to have the main support's favor, was reaching out and helping to draw out the poison from her body.

Seeing this in the dream made Youluo want to laugh; how could that be possible?

The poison was so potent that even she succumbed to it; how could Lu Ye have avoided it?

He was probably poisoned and lying by the stream just like her?

However, as the dream grew increasingly bizarre, Youluo jolted awake.
