Chapter 1037

Ye Yu had been eager to share these treasures with Bone Lady but froze when he met her strange gaze

What kind of look was that

“My husband,” Bone Lady said with a hesitant tone “Was what you told them just now all true Did Chu Ge ever threaten you”

Her voice grew ever softer, and this carefree woman had never shown such an expression before

There was no helping it—this matter was indeed very important

Though Bone Lady’s temperament was fiery and passionate, she still could not accept something so avant-garde

“If other gods suffered at his hands they had no choice but to endure it but you, my husband, must remain blameless”

Ye Yu did not answer immediately. He first stowed ❀ Nоvеlігht ❀ (Don’t copy, read here) away the offerings and then flicked her forehead with force—crack

“Ouch ouch ouch”

Bone Lady clutched her head and stumbled back

The strike had been so powerful that tears welled in her eyes

“My husband’s hand is really heavy”

Ye Yu said in a low voice “You deserved that How could you ask such a presumptuous question Don’t say my story was all lies but even if it were true Chu Ge could never have harmed me understand”

As Bone Lady rubbed her forehead, she pondered his words

Of course if her husband could kill Chu Ge then he was surely safe

She realized she had overthought the matter

Wait a moment was that story a lie

“So then your tale just now was a complete ruse” she asked curiously

“Of course Otherwise how could we have gotten so much treasure That’s wisdom In the Divine Realm we must always save up capital Consider these gifts payment for saving them” Ye Yu answered with a straight face

Bone Lady thought for a moment and found his logic sound. She immediately gave him a thumbs-up

“As expected of my husband You really know how to live”

Half a month later

A new city had risen here, created by Ye Yu’s array formation. The old thatched huts had already been razed

Ye Yu called this renewal

During that time he had not explored the Divine Realm further but stayed by Bone Lady’s side learning divine arts to make up for his weakness in them

Alas the results were scant

He had never before touched divine arts, and most of the xian arts he knew came as system rewards at the Perfect Realm

True cultivation of a genuine art was exhausting

Moreover divine arts were potent but to master them took far more than a single lifetime

Take the

Lion’s Roar of Heaven and Earth

that Bone Lady had him study. A mythic version of the

Lion’s Roar Skill

with sweeping destructive power that greatly enhanced demonic bodies—damage and buff in one technique

It was a very practical art but to learn its basics properly required at least three hundred years, let alone perfection or the Perfect Realm

Ye Yu truly did not have time to spend so long

After two weeks of zero progress he had no choice but to give up

This path was not for him

He would have to seek a suitable divine art elsewhere

Of course he had not idled away that time. He converted all the negative-emotion points he had harvested from the nine divine beings into cultivation

With over a billion points plus the aid of the divine treasures they had left behind he leaped two minor realms in succession

Ye Yu stepped into the True God Late Stage Realm

His divine power grew ever more substantial. At this rate he would soon reach the Great God Realm—provided he found suitable score-farming targets

Clearly Bone Lady was not that fortunate candidate

After all she was his wife; he could not risk fatiguing her to death every day

So Ye Yu prepared to seek out Bone Lady to discuss traveling the Divine Realm together

But when he found her the surrounding space began to warp

A towering golden lion phantom appeared above her

With a

roar

all fell silent

This domineering sight made Ye Yu raise an eyebrow

As if sensing a familiar aura Bone Lady slowly opened her eyes and the golden lion phantom dissipated

“My husband you are here I have something to tell you”

Ye Yu nodded

Bone Lady looked embarrassed “I may need to enter seclusion for a time to prepare for my breakthrough to the Celestial God Realm”

With her talent and strength she should have advanced long ago

But her mind demon had plagued her and stalled her progress

During this time, with Ye Yu’s help, she had suppressed that mind demon’s ravaging emotions

Only now did she have the chance to break through

She did not want to miss it. If she succeeded in joining the Celestial God Realm she could better control or perhaps even eliminate her mind demon

It was her lifelong wish

Her only worry was that during that time she could not accompany Ye Yu

At this point her spirits sank

Living alone and living together were entirely different experiences

As time passed she had grown ever more fond of her husband

And could not bear to part

Ye Yu looked at her oddly That was rather inconvenient

He offered her a pillow “If you feel sleepy here you can rest”

Ye Yu then said “Since the chance to break through has come you should focus on cultivation But if your mind demon acts up while you are in seclusion what will you do”

Bone Lady smiled lightly “Husband need not worry Since you took away the Celestial-Slaying Sword of Law and used secret methods to draw out the mind demon’s feral emotions she has been completely subdued Otherwise I would not have this chance to break through”

Ye Yu nodded

“In that case during your seclusion I will travel outside. I’ll return to see you once every three months How does that sound”

Bone Lady blinked “Husband do you still long for Shen Fuxin So you intend to seek her out If so good luck I won’t be jealous”

Ye Yu swiftly raised his hand overhead as if to knock himself

At this, Bone Lady immediately fled

Watching her receding figure Ye Yu furrowed his brow

It had indeed been a long time since he had seen Shen Fuxin But if he were to go find her what would he even say
