What! The Wives in My Dreams Are Real? novel Chapter 1281

The alliance cannot go a single day without a leader. The shadow demon Ye Yu met just now was the new alliance leader of Tongtian Pavilion.

Not because he was especially capable or overwhelmingly strong—

—but because [N O V E L I G H T] Tongtian Pavilion had only him left.

There was simply no one else to choose.

So they pushed that shadow demon into the seat.

Yet after only two days, the shadow demon, Kuang Tailong, regretted it.

Inside Tongtian Pavilion there was nothing at all—poor as dirt.

He was a commander with no troops.

What was the point of staying in an alliance that could be struck from the rolls at any time?

Kuang Tailong wanted to bolt on the spot. Luo Shu blocked his path and tried patiently to talk him down.

He said that since you’ve signed the contract, this great alliance is yours. Grow it slowly and everything will get better.

Hearing that, Kuang Tailong nearly collapsed on the spot.

“Sure, a grand alliance—but looking good takes divine stones!”

“As alliance leader I have to contribute three hundred divine stones every year just to keep the alliance running. I can’t meet that—and I don’t want to!”

When Ye Yu arrived just now, it happened to be the moment Kuang Tailong stormed out.

The latter didn’t care about anything else—he just had Ye Yu press a fingerprint on the contract, then fled on the spot.

Simple, clear, direct—one neat sequence of moves.

By the time Luo Shu came out, all he saw was Kuang Tailong’s retreating back and Ye Yu holding the contract.

Honestly, if Kuang Tailong wanted to leave, let him go. Forced melons aren’t sweet. From his bearing alone, he was never going to make the alliance great.

So Luo Shu did not keep persuading.

But the alliance leader of Tongtian Pavilion should not have been a yokai.

After hearing Luo Shu’s account, Ye Yu finally understood the situation here.

He looked at the contract in his hand and tentatively asked, “How about I return this to you and you take the alliance leader’s seat? That wouldn’t betray the intention you and your brother had at the start.”

Luo Shu snapped back, “If I could, I’d have been alliance leader long ago. Why wait until today? Forget it—you do it. Maybe this is fate. Eh.”

Seeing him like that, Ye Yu was full of question marks.

You’re the one sighing?

If anyone deserves to sigh, it’s me!

I got muddled into being a one-man commander and became alliance leader. Sounds nice, but in practice? I start with one dog and nothing else.

So I’m the one who actually needs to sigh.

Ye Yu swallowed those words and kept them to himself.

After all, quarreling with a dog is hardly glorious.

Unaware of Ye Yu’s thoughts, Luo Shu stood up and headed into Tongtian Pavilion.

“All right, kid, I’ll give you a tour of your turf.”

Hearing that, Ye Yu followed, curious.

Tongtian Pavilion was vast. Even a simple walk-through took two hours.

And that was a speed-run, skimming past sights as if punching a timecard.

A careful inspection would take two or three times longer at least.

Afterward, Ye Yu had only one thought:

Bare walls.

Everywhere was empty. You could see everything from outside.

In a place like this, even a rat would leave with tears in its eyes.

Of course, rats didn’t have the power to get here anyway.

But ever since he gained Heaven-Defying Comprehension, he’d studied ancient demon script, yokai script, and more, just to read old texts.

If these ancient demon body-forging methods were integrated with the Demon Arrival Heaven Method—discarding the dregs and taking the essence—
