Inside the Wuwei Tower.
Shangguan Jiujiu gazed anxiously into the distance.
A crisp sound rang out.
Shangguan Jiujiu looked down ~Nоvеl𝕚ght~ and saw that the Heart-Searching Ring on her hand suddenly cracked open.
The entire ring immediately lost its luster.
Seeing this, Shangguan Jiujiu’s face turned deathly pale.
She knew very well that the Heart-Searching Ring was a pair.
When the owner of the other ring perished,
the remaining one would become a solitary item, its surface shattered, dimming in light, and becoming nothing more than a relic.
Now, with the Heart-Searching Ring’s behavior, didn’t it suggest that Ye Yu had perished?
Shangguan Jiujiu couldn’t accept this.
She nearly collapsed.
After a long while, she managed to stabilize herself.
The War Sky Black Ape Ah Kong saw this and immediately rushed over.
He asked what had happened.
Shangguan Jiujiu’s voice trembled as she spoke, "Ye Yu might... be in danger, we have to find him."
Even now, she still didn’t want to believe that Ye Yu had perished.
When Ah Kong heard that the Big Brother, Ye Yu, was in danger, he immediately became frantic.
He asked himself—since his birth, besides his mother, Ye Yu had treated him the best, otherwise, he wouldn’t have been following Ye Yu around, calling him Big Brother every day.
Now that Big Brother was in trouble, how could he not care?
With a roar,
Ah Kong instantly transformed into his War Sky Black Ape form.
He charged toward the distance.
Meanwhile, Shangguan Jiujiu also set out on the path to find her husband.
At the same time, Lin Aotian, the owner of the ancient ring, also arrived at the central Heavenly Realm.
He too discovered the secret realm Ye Yu had entered.
So he began to inquire with the old man Cao Yi.
"Is this the secret realm you mentioned, where the Immortal Lord’s inheritance is?"
Cao Yi transformed into a shadowy figure and appeared before Lin Aotian.
In a deep voice, he said, "The secret realm with the Immortal Lord’s inheritance won’t open until three months later."
"And this secret realm is known as the Dead Zone, the World of Flames. Only those in the Immortal King realm can challenge it."
"Hmm, based on the fluctuations at the entrance, it seems someone has entered recently."
"I wonder which Immortal it is?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Aotian pondered as he looked toward the entrance of the secret realm.
Thirty years later,
Shangguan Jiujiu had searched the entire Heavenly Realm but still hadn’t found Ye Yu’s whereabouts.
She couldn’t sense his position or aura.
It was only then that she started to resign herself.
Perhaps, her husband truly was gone.
Every time she thought of this, Shangguan Jiujiu’s heart ached as if it had been pierced by a knife, her expression vacant.
The War Sky Black Ape Ah Kong and her best friend Zhuo Lanqing were afraid she might do something drastic.
So they stayed by her side day and night, constantly encouraging her to live on.
"Maybe Ye Yu will have a second life."
But Shangguan Jiujiu was unaffected by their words.
"Heart problems need to be healed by the heart.
Only I can walk out of it. External forces can’t help much."
One hundred years later,
Shangguan Jiujiu stepped out of the Wuwei Tower.
She had temporarily come to terms with things and no longer thought of martyrdom.
It was because, on that day before Ye Yu left, he had given her some instructions.
"No matter what happens, live on.
"Pursue the strongest position in the Heavenly Realm."
Now, for Shangguan Jiujiu, whether she became the strongest was secondary.
She wanted to walk the path Ye Yu had once walked.
One hundred and fifty years later, Shangguan Jiujiu successfully ascended to the Immortal King realm.
(Don’t mention the timing mismatch, because it definitely doesn’t match. Ye Yu’s fall caused a huge change in Shangguan Jiujiu’s mindset, naturally altering the future rules.)
The following year, Shangguan Jiujiu met Lin Aotian.
Just as Ye Yu had seen in his future,
