If it kept going like this, this ti he made it in ti—but what about next ti?
There was no way it would be this perfectly tid every ti.
Staring at Lu Ye’s indifferent face, hearing the lack of his usual calm in his tone, Youluo really started to panic.
"My lord husband, I... I just wanted to help you test out his strength first."
"You knew perfectly well he was Earth Realm Fourth Layer, and you’re not so ignorant little kid. Don’t you know the higher the realm, the harder it is to fight across realms?"
Lu Ye’s face stayed cold as he said, "All these years—where did your caution go?"
"Faced with sothing like this, you ca without saying a word. You weren’t helping —you were putting in danger."
"If you’d accidentally fallen, or been taken hostage, then tell ... what was I supposed to do?"
Here, Lu Ye gave her a deep look. "You need to understand: once soone dies, they don’t co back."
"If you can’t figure that out now, then afterward, you should go and think it through on your own."
Hearing this, Youluo was completely stunned. She truly hadn’t thought about any of that.
She had just simply thought that if she could help Lu Ye probe out a few things, he’d be more confident when the ti ca.
But when she actually faced Xiao Zheng, the gap between them was simply too huge. In just two moves, she was already on the brink of death...
Only after hearing Lu Ye’s words did she realize just how much trouble her actions could have caused for her lord husband.
If she really had been seriously injured, then grabbed as a hostage by Xiao Zheng, the situation just now...
Thinking of that possibility, Youluo’s delicate body trembled slightly. In that kind of situation, for Lu Ye to save her, he would have to accept whatever harsh conditions Xiao Zheng demanded.
If he didn’t save her, he would be racked with guilt, and he wouldn’t have any peace either.
So her impulsive move had almost created a huge pile of trouble!
Youluo stood there dazed in front of Lu Ye for a long ti before she ca back to herself, and said quietly, "My lord husband, Youluo... knows she was wrong."
"Youluo shouldn’t have made decisions on her own, acting without saying a word and almost dragging out a ss of trouble. I’m sorry!"
Looking at the apologetic Youluo, Lu Ye said coolly, "In the end, you really do have to rember this. The continent is dangerous; any wrong decision can brew a great disaster."
She knew Lu Ye was speaking the truth.
She had seen plenty of things herself. Once she thought it through, Youluo imdiately realized her mistake.
"Youluo will rember. From now on, I definitely, definitely won’t act on my own again!" Youluo promised with a very serious face. "If anything happens, I’ll talk it over with my lord husband first!"
In her mind, she couldn’t help but picture the scene of herself having fallen in battle, and her lord husband hugging her tombstone, crying his heart out...
Youluo: "..."
Seeing Youluo’s serious expression, as if she had truly taken it to heart, Lu Ye’s face finally eased.
"I hope you really have rembered."
"Hehehe... I really did rember. My lord husband, you scared to death just now. But Youluo did wrong, so Youluo should learn her lesson." Seeing that the terrifying aura around Lu Ye had faded, Youluo hastily showed a small smile and moved closer to him.
Lu Ye had just opened his mouth to say sothing when his expression suddenly shifted, and he looked back toward Yinmang Mountain...
"Soone’s coming. Let’s go."
The next instant, Lu Ye’s figure vanished again.
Soone’s coming?
A mont later, even Youluo, whose Sensing Power was a bit weaker, noticed it as well.
She imdiately followed after Lu Ye and left this place.
Half a minute later, two figures descended here. "Huh, there’s a lingering aura here."
"There is, but it looks like they’ve already left," the other one said.
The two of them, one fat and one thin, had rushed here in a hurry from the Southern Territory.
"What a pity. You and I, brothers, rushed over as soon as we heard the news, but we were still just a step too late and didn’t get to see that earth-shaking battle."
"Big brother, do we still chase?" the thin one beside him asked.
The two of them were cultivators from the Southern Territory, both at the Mortal Realm Ninth Layer, just a single step from the Earth Realm.
When they heard that an Earth Realm from the Hidden Spirit Land had appeared, heading to the Northern Territory wanting a fight, and that the other party was also a young Earth Realm genius, the two of them imdiately beca interested.
They were only one step away from touching that realm. If they could watch an Earth Realm battle...
They might gain so insights from it!
As long as their luck wasn’t terrible, it would be a great help on their path to Breaking the Realm.
It was just a pity that they hadn’t even stopped for a sip of water on the way, and by the ti they arrived... Xiao Zheng’s ashes were already cold.
Just from the few bits and pieces of descriptions they heard, they could already tell that it must have been a battle seen only once in ten years!
"Forget it, we won’t chase. We ca hoping to gain so insight from this chance. Now that the battle is over, that Earth Realm genius clearly doesn’t want to et us. If we forcefully chase him down, we’ll only offend him."
After thinking it over for a mont, the slightly fat cultivator spoke.
Then, the two of them also vanished from this place.
...
Eight hundred li away, in a certain region.
Feeling that no one was chasing from behind, Lu Ye stopped and landed. "All right, they’re not coming after us."
Closely following behind him, Youluo asked curiously, "Oh right, my lord husband, that thing you used before... was that also a Divine Technique?"
"That bird that looked really aloof..."
Watching Youluo gesturing, Lu Ye nodded. "It’s one of my Divine Techniques."
Divine Techniques could only be successfully cultivated through the Divine Power Stele, or by chance encounters related to Divine Techniques, and so on.
This was why Lu Ye had used the Vermilion Bird Seal in front of everyone’s eyes.
No matter how envious others were, they knew they couldn’t get the cultivation thod for this Divine Technique from him.
"Youluo feels that’s at least top-tier Middle Grade, maybe even an Upper Grade Divine Technique! It’s so powerful!" Youluo exclaid. "It can completely compare to those few powerful Divine Techniques my lord used to wield back then."
Hearing this, Lu Ye’s heart stirred. Youluo had at least seen the real thing; even though she only had Lower Grade Divine Techniques in her hands now...
She had definitely seen Middle Grade and Upper Grade before.
For her to give such a high evaluation ant the Vermilion Bird Seal’s grade was indeed astonishing.
No wonder that dead bird that had gained Spiritual awareness from the Divine Technique was so aloof.
Did it not understand what it ant to be... the master of the Vermilion Bird Seal Divine Technique?
All of a sudden, Lu Ye briefly closed his eyes, then quickly said,
"That great battle just now loosened my bottleneck a bit... I need to find a place and go into seclusion imdiately."
The barrier of Earth Realm Third Layer had loosened quite a bit at this mont; for Lu Ye, this was an opportunity he absolutely could not miss.
Half a cup of tea later...
Lu Ye skillfully found a cave, went inside, then set up a Defense Shield, and instantly entered a state of seclusion to Break Through...
