What! The Wives in My Dreams Are Real? novel Chapter 883

Unknown how much time had passed before Yue Wanqiu finally broke the silence.

“Where is Ye Yu?” she asked.

“It’s none of your business!” Nangong Jingtang snapped.

She turned to leave, but Yue Wanqiu intercepted her once more and repeated her question.

“Where is Ye Yu? Tell me!”

News of the battle with the Peacock Clan had spread like wildfire through the demon realm. Even Luanyao City had been reduced to ruins—a testament to the strength of both sides. Upon hearing this, Yue Wanqiu was stunned. The Peacock Clan was Nangong Jingtang’s home—how could such a fierce conflict have erupted there? And what of Ye Yu? Was he safe?

Anxiety churned within Yue Wanqiu, but recalling Nangong Jingtang’s hostility the last time they met, she chose not to go herself. Instead, she had sent scouts to investigate. She had hoped beyond hope that Ye Yu was unharmed.

The reports that came back, however, sent her heart plummeting. A mysterious powerhouse had appeared, Ye Yu had fallen in battle, and Nangong Jingtang had not rebuilt her home but fled, searching desperately abroad.

He couldn’t be dead. He was so powerful—how could he have perished? Even with the intelligence laid before her, Yue Wanqiu refused to accept the truth. She had to hear it from Nangong Jingtang herself. Only then could she relinquish hope.

Her demand struck at Nangong Jingtang’s deepest wound. The latter’s face went cold. “Why does Ye Yu’s whereabouts concern you? What right have you to ask me? I am his demon spouse—who are you?” she replied.

Yue Wanqiu’s expression darkened. Indeed, she held no title or position here. Such was the sorrow of an unrequited love. In another time, faced with Nangong Jingtang’s rebuff, she would have slunk away in silence. But not now. She needed the truth, even if it meant confirming her worst fears.

Grasping Nangong Jingtang’s sleeve, she demanded, “Tell me—where is Ye Yu? Is it true that he’s gone?”

At her words, tears instantly filled Nangong Jingtang’s eyes. She cried out, “If you already know, why do you come asking me? Why?”

The calm aura around Yue Wanqiu shattered, replaced by a wild fury. “If he’s gone, why are you still alive? As his demon spouse, why didn’t you protect him?”

Nangong Jingtang shuddered as fresh pain ripped through her heart. Her eyes gleamed red as she yanked her arm free. “Who are you to question me in that tone? Who do you think you are?”
