What! The Wives in My Dreams Are Real? novel Chapter 257

Tuoba Qiyue’s expression shifted.

She asked, "Ye family? Could it be the Ye family of the Forbidden Yin River?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Xiuming smiled playfully.

"I didn’t expect that even after my Ye family secluded ourselves for ten thousand years, someone would still remember our origins. Truly impressive."

Ye Yu’s brows knitted slightly.

The moment Ye Xiuming revealed his identity, Ye Yu had already suspected that this person might be a descendant of the Ye family, as Lin Miaoxue had mentioned. frёeωebɳovel.com

But he hadn’t anticipated that Tuoba Qiyue seemed to know something about the Ye family as well.

Curious, he transmitted his question to her mentally, "The Ye family of the Forbidden Yin River? You know them?"

"I read about them in an ancient text in the Qingyun Sect. Tens of thousands of years ago, before the Sacred Lands existed on the Central Continent, the Ye family was the strongest cultivation family, standing above everyone else.

Each family member wore a purple ring on their left hand to signify their identity. Their ancestors even included several immortals. There was an old saying: ‘Better to trespass the palace of the King of Hell than provoke someone from the Ye family.’

However, ten thousand years ago, the Ye family of the Forbidden Yin River vanished without a trace. No one knows where they went."

Tuoba Qiyue’s expression grew somber.

What did Ye Xiuming mean by mentioning Lin Fengyuan?

Wasn’t that the infamous demonic cultivator from thirty thousand years ago?

How was her Junior Brother involved with him?

As a devoted fantasy romance novel enthusiast and writer, Tuoba Qiyue was generally oblivious to outside affairs, focusing solely on her stories.

She genuinely knew nothing about Lin Fengyuan’s past at Demon Suppression Mountain, and Hong Luan had never mentioned it to her.

After all, Tuoba Qiyue was already past the age limit for Demon Suppression Mountain, so there was no point in telling her.

Perplexed, Tuoba Qiyue asked Ye Yu what was going on.

Ye Yu briefly recounted the events at Demon Suppression Mountain but withheld most details about Lin Fengyuan. He only mentioned that Lin Fengyuan had shown no intention of harming him and had let him go after they left the mountain.

Tuoba Qiyue frowned slightly.

Although Ye Yu’s explanation left much to question, she chose to trust her Dao Companion.

Stepping forward, she declared firmly, "Daoist Ye, my husband does not know Lin Fengyuan’s whereabouts. You’re asking the wrong person!"

Ye Xiuming raised his right hand.

With a flick of his wrist, an ancient-looking sword materialized in his grasp.

"If you don’t want to talk, that’s perfectly fine! I’ll kill you both and search your memories thoroughly. I hope you don’t beg for mercy later, because the more you beg, the more excited I get! Hahaha!"

Ye Xiuming’s maniacal laughter echoed across the area.

Tuoba Qiyue frowned deeply.

She was a cultivator in the early stage of the Tribulation Realm, a level that approached the pinnacle of the cultivation world.

However, the spiritual energy emanating from Ye Xiuming was far stronger than hers, likely placing him at the peak of the Tribulation Realm or even the Ascension Realm.

If a fight broke out, she would certainly be outmatched.

But right now, she had no thoughts of retreat.

Ye Yu was still by her side.

Her husband was only in the Golden Core Realm; against Ye Xiuming, he stood no chance of survival.

Therefore.

Tuoba Qiyue was ready to stake everything, even her life, to protect Ye Yu from harm!

"Junior Brother, I’ll hold him off. You return to Qingyun Sect for reinforcements!"

With those words, Tuoba Qiyue released Ye Yu’s hand.

For the first time since they had become Dao Companions, she let go of Ye Yu’s hand voluntarily.

Ye Xiuming observed this with a feigned expression of sadness, saying mockingly, "What a touching pair of Dao Companions. I could almost cry. Don’t worry, I’ll make sure you die together."

Tuoba Qiyue formed hand seals, and a colossal spirit avatar began to appear behind her. But before it could fully manifest, it was shattered by a single slap.

Feeling a warm hand on her shoulder, Tuoba Qiyue turned around in shock.

What she saw stunned her.

Ye Yu’s spiritual energy was surging around him.

"I’m not one to hide behind a woman. Senior Sister, watch from behind!"

With a gentle tug, Ye Yu pulled Tuoba Qiyue to his side and stepped forward.

Sword intent burst forth, filling the air with the sound of piercing sword energy.

The clear sky darkened with thick clouds.

But now it seemed more like The Peerless Sword Immortal Fell in Love with Me.
