What! The Wives in My Dreams Are Real? novel Chapter 528

“The explanation from Lü Cangshan, the second-in-command of Niepan Province, was far too flimsy.”

“No one believed it at all.”

“As a result, some of the demon clans became even more reckless. They started forcibly abducting Niepan’s close associates, trying to coerce them into revealing Li Yao’s whereabouts.”

“But the truth was, they really didn’t know.”

“Didn’t know? Then kill them!”

“Gradually, the local demons of Niepan Province grew fewer, while outsiders increased.”

“This place was truly falling into chaos!”

“And this gave Ye Yu an excellent opportunity to develop.”

“Under Pei Chuxia’s guidance.”

“Ye Yu rampaged through Niepan Province, killing many demons hailed as geniuses.”

“At the same time, they never forgot to gather intelligence about Demon Lord Li Yao.”

“Because Pei Chuxia was very clear.”

“When Demon Lord Li Yao reappeared in the Demon Realm, it would mark the moment Niepan Province launched a full-scale counterattack.”

“In that case, they would have to return immediately and prepare for a real, hard-fought battle.”

“In other words, Ye Yu was racing against time.”

“No one could be sure whether tomorrow, when the Blood Moon rose, Li Yao would appear before everyone in his strongest form.”

“And so, five years quickly passed.”

“Even Pei Chuxia never expected things to remain so stable for so long.”

“During this time, many demons died daily in Niepan Province, and this land was thoroughly devastated. Yet Demon Lord Li Yao never once showed his face.”

“This caused many to start doubting whether Li Yao had already perished.”

“At first, perhaps many didn’t believe it.”

“But as time went on, more and more accepted this as fact.”

“After all, even if cultivating unparalleled demonic arts, wouldn’t he appear at least once in several years?”

“As more demons began believing Li Yao was dead.”

“Some Demon Lords started to grow restless.”

“Among them, Luo Fengtai, Demon Lord of Wuyan Province, was the most aggressive.”

“It was heard that he had already seized three small cities north of Niepan Province.”

“And was advancing toward the central region like a whale swallowing its prey.”

“This move immediately triggered a chain reaction.”

“Other Demon Lords also mobilized their forces to snatch territories in Niepan Province.”

“Nowadays, Ye Yu and Pei Chuxia often witnessed fierce battles between different Demon Lords’ subordinates.”

“It was truly overwhelming.”

“Though they had always considered Demon Lord Li Yao the hypothetical future enemy.”

“Now, with that enemy suddenly gone.”

“What should they do?”

“To be precise, Pei Chuxia was caught in confusion.”

“That night, she sat alone outside again, staring blankly at the Blood Moon.”

“Seeing this, Ye Yu quietly came to sit beside her, without speaking—just accompanying her silently.”

“After a long while.”

“Pei Chuxia softly said, ‘For years, hatred has troubled me deeply. Now, with Demon Lord Li Yao gone so long, he might truly be dead.’”

“‘I suddenly feel at a loss.’”

“‘Then, what was all my effort for?’”

“Ye Yu held her hand firmly and said earnestly, ‘Your efforts over these years were for me.’”

“‘Without you, I couldn’t have risen to the peak of the Profound Demon Realm so {N•o•v•e•l•i•g•h•t} quickly.’”

“That was right. Over these five years.”
