What! The Wives in My Dreams Are Real? novel Chapter 289

[When Situ Shuping’s master learned of the existence of one remaining hidden demon seed, his face turned deathly pale.]

[At that moment, he was at the end of his life, completely drained and powerless to continue the fight.]

[In his final moments, he instructed Situ Shuping to find and eradicate the last demon seed, no matter what.]

[Otherwise, humanity would be enslaved and used as a stepping stone for the demons’ ascent.]

Situ Shuping naturally agreed to his master’s dying wish.

[From that day forward, he devoted himself to cultivation, and a thousand years ago, he rose to become the sect leader of Chaos Valley.]

[Once he had the strength, he took his master’s Demon-Seeking Stone and began searching for the last demon seed.]

[Finally, several centuries ago, Situ Shuping located Bai Miao Leng.]

[He confirmed that the sister of the Bai Family’s head was indeed the ninth pure-blooded demon heir hidden within the human realm.]

[However, he did not act immediately.]

[He waited, concealing his intentions all this time.]

[The reason was simple.]

[Situ Shuping knew that, even as a mid-Ascension Realm cultivator, he might not be a match for the demon seed.]

[The Demon Clan had paid a tremendous price to leave these nine demon heirs—they were far from a simple distraction.]

[They were true anchors for the Demons’ plan to conquer the human realm.]

[Each demon seed carried a treasure of immense value, and even a peak Ascension Realm cultivator would face an even battle against them.]

[Otherwise, the protectors of the Northern Wilderness Continent, including Situ Shuping’s own master, wouldn’t have perished fighting them.]

[In this situation, making a hasty move would be suicidal.]

[He wasn’t afraid of death, but he feared dying before fulfilling his master’s final wish.]

[Moreover, Bai Miao Leng had carefully established her influence within the Bai Family over the years.]

[If he stirred up trouble prematurely, he might inadvertently push the demon seed to begin consuming the human realm ahead of schedule.]

[For these reasons, Situ Shuping had spent centuries searching for a way to deal with Bai Miao Leng.]

[He was confident that if he could strip her of her demonic treasure, he could kill her.]

[At worst, he could trade his life for hers.]

[Through his observations over the years, he deduced that Bai Miao Leng’s demonic treasure was likely the robe she wore.]

[If he could just remove the robe, everything would fall into place.]

[But how to accomplish that was the critical question.]

[And then Ye Yu appeared.]

[In Ye Yu, Situ Shuping saw hope.]

[Based on reports from spies within the Bai Family, Bai Miao Leng seemed to be truly enamored with Ye Yu.]

[She often had people secretly gather information about him.]

[She even painted a portrait of Ye Yu with her own hands and gazed at it daily, lost in thought.]

Hearing this, Ye Yu felt surprised.

Gazing at a portrait, yearning?

[It did seem like something Bai Miao Leng would do.]

[Though she was indeed crazy, her affection for him was genuine.]

Situ Shuping straightened his robe and, bowing solemnly, said, “Ye Daoist, please, for the sake of humanity, lend us your strength.”

“If you can temporarily take away Bai Miao Leng’s robe, then leave the rest to me!”

Ye Yu’s face darkened.

Stealing his own wife’s robe? There was no way to make that sound respectable.

And yet, Situ Shuping had to elevate it to such a high cause.

For all of humanity?

Really going all out with the pitch, huh?

Ye Yu remained silent, offering no response.

[Seeing this, Situ Shuping dropped to his knees before Ye Yu.]

In a low voice, he pleaded, “Ye Daoist, this realm belongs to both of us.”

Was he truly unafraid of death?

Or had he decided to pledge loyalty to the Demon Clan?

Everything was exactly as Situ Shuping had described.
