What! The Wives in My Dreams Are Real?!

【At 23 years old, Ye Yu had already successfully ascended to the early stage of Golden Core Realm.】

【Such a terrifying cultivation speed had nearly driven Ye Qingyu mad.】

【A cultivator this young at the Golden Core Realm—could there possibly be a second one like him across the entire Western Frontier Continent?】

【However, Ye Qingyu was very curious.】

【Clearly, Ye Yu was a complete mess when it came to academics. How could his cultivation speed be so fast?】

【Thus, Ye Qingyu began to observe what Ye Yu was doing every day.】

【But after several days, the conclusion left him even more exasperated.】

【All Ye Yu did every day was daydream beside He Jieying!】

【This really was very strange.】

【It was one thing if you followed He Jieying around when you were a child.】

【That could be chalked up to natural instincts, but now that you’re grown, what’s the point of still following her?】

【To bask in He Jieying’s sharp tongue as she scolds everyone around her?】

【This was a question Ye Qingyu couldn’t figure out no matter how hard he tried.】

【In the end, he had no choice but to leave!】

【To be precise, he was driven away!】

【With He Jieying’s classic remarks:】

【You useless thing, what are you doing hanging around my son every day? Are you trying to force him to read books again?】

【Look, look—you still haven’t managed to read your way beyond the late stage of the Tribulation Crossing Realm.】

【If you’ve got nothing better to do, go find some rare treasures to supplement my son’s health! Don’t you see how skinny he is?】

【No one could withstand such a torrent of scolding!】

【In fact, He Jieying didn’t just scold Ye Qingyu but also her disciples and students—】

【What are you two idiots doing, wandering around every day like a couple of stick insects? Get out, get out, you’re an eyesore.】

【And you, what are you laughing about? Have you eaten some weird beans?】

【You could say that when He Jieying was in a bad mood, even a passing dog would get a couple of harsh words thrown at it!】

【However, these disciples were long used to it. The harsher He Jieying scolded, the more it showed she cared about them!】

【The resources and techniques they received for cultivation were never skimped on; in fact, they were often given more. If there was something good, she would always think of them.】

【So they all held great respect for this master who loved to express herself verbally!】

【Throughout the entire Ji Xia Academy, there was only one person He Jieying had never scolded!】

【And that was Ye Yu!】

【She cherished her own son dearly, never uttering a single harsh word toward him.】

【You could truly say she loved him beyond measure!】

【However, Ye Yu wasn’t all that happy about it!】

【There was only one reason.】

【And that was because He Jieying was a straightforward person. She spoke her mind freely!】

【Whatever was on her mind, she would just blurt it out in a scolding, so she rarely had inner thoughts!】

【Ye Yu hardly heard anything, and even though He Jieying’s cultivation was exceptionally high, it didn’t allow Ye Yu’s talent to reach its full potential.】

【If only she expressed her inner thoughts a bit more, then Ye Yu could have at least started at the late stage of the Golden Core Realm!】

【This was truly a shame.】

【At present, Ye Yu noticed that at Ji Xia Academy, most of the scholars here were men!】

【Female cultivators were rare, and those who were around had mostly low cultivation levels.】

【Their inner voices couldn’t provide much help to Ye Yu at all.】

【So, Ye Yu’s only option was to stay by He Jieying’s side, listening to the few inner thoughts she occasionally expressed.】

【At 28 years old, Ye Yu’s cultivation speed finally began to slow down.】

【In five years, he barely advanced from the early stage of Golden Core to the mid-stage of Golden Core Realm.】

【This speed was still quite impressive. But compared to previous years, it was somewhat slow.】

【The reason for this phenomenon was that He Jieying’s inner thoughts had become fewer and fewer.】

【Ye Yu really wanted to tape her mouth shut, to force her to engage in some serious inner contemplation!】

【But unfortunately, he couldn’t do that!】

【He Jieying had now reached the early stage of the Tribulation Crossing Realm.】

【By all accounts, with such a high level of cultivation, she should have been granted the title of Grand Scholar.】

【But this proposal was met with opposition from the upper echelons of Ji Xia Academy!】

【After all, they really didn’t want the world to know that a female Grand Scholar from Ji Xia Academy had such a foul mouth.】

【They simply couldn’t bear that embarrassment!】

【Rumor had it, Ye Qingyu also voted against it!】

【Though whether this was true or not is unclear.】

【But that very night, Ye Qingyu still got a severe beating. His screams echoed throughout Ji Xia Academy!】

【This left the upper echelons of Ji Xia Academy in a state of anxiety, fearing that He Jieying would come after them the next day.】

【For a moment, their resolve began to waver. Maybe it wouldn’t be so bad to give her the title of Grand Scholar after all.】

【But He Jieying didn’t lash out at these people.】

【In her eyes, the title of Grand Scholar didn’t matter one way or another—her level of cultivation spoke for itself. Who would dare defy her?】

【Besides, He Jieying had more important things to focus on…】

【Like finding a compatible Dao companion for Ye Yu!】

【Because even she had noticed that Ye Yu was always gloomy.】

【So she wanted to try something—would Ye Yu be happier if she found him a good Dao companion?】

【At first, Ye Yu was extremely resistant to He Jieying’s well-meaning efforts.】

【But later, his attitude underwent a complete transformation. He began actively cooperating in the search for a Dao companion.】

【Of course, it wasn’t because Ye Yu had been beaten into submission.】

【Rather, he discovered that every time He Jieying was picking out a Dao companion for him, her inner thoughts would gradually become more frequent!】

【With two Tribulation Crossing Realm parents, and both holding high positions in Ji Xia Academy… Such a family background was truly unrivaled!】

【On top of that, Ye Yu was handsome and distinguished.】

【Naturally, matchmakers came in an endless stream!】

【They arrived with recording stones featuring beautiful fairies from across the Western Frontier Continent.】

【The thing He Jieying spent most of her time on each day was carefully studying these women’s appearances.】

【Silently evaluating them in her mind!】

【”Woman with high cheekbones, can kill men without a knife! Not suitable, next!”】

【“Cute appearance but lacks substance, might not have enough nutrients for future children, next!”】

【“Sluggish complexion, looks too gloomy, next!”】

【“Good background, but poor talent, next!”】

……

【As He Jieying’s inner thoughts became more frequent, Ye Yu’s cultivation soared!】

【In just half a month, he advanced a small level, reaching the late stage of the Golden Core Realm!】

【However, this progress didn’t last long.】

【After all, no matter how many candidates were sent, there would eventually be a day when they’d all been reviewed.】

【After He Jieying’s rigorous selection process, out of over two thousand candidates, fewer than sixty remained!】

【Next came Ye Yu’s matchmaking sessions!】

【The schedule was packed.】

【He Jieying demanded that Ye Yu make his choice from these fifty-some fairies within two days!】

【On average, he had less than half an hour to meet each person.】

【And there was no rest allowed, even at night.】

【Ye Yu felt quite helpless.】
