Chapter 183 - A Man Cannot Say He's Not Capable
【Half a year passed in the blink of an eye.】
【Ye Yu had already been living in this mountain village for six months.】
【And he had successfully advanced to the early stage of the Divine Transformation realm!】
【Such rapid progress was already quite impressive.】
【At first, Fu Wangdai found his presence very inconvenient. She even considered moving away.】
【But thanks to Ye Yu’s ability to hear her inner thoughts, he was able to cater to her preferences.】
【For example, if Fu Wangdai wanted fruit tonight, Ye Yu would have it delivered to her doorstep by the next morning.】
【If she wanted to go fishing the next day, she would find Ye Yu already by the river, not only accompanying her but also setting up the bait.】
【In short, Ye Yu provided Fu Wangdai with immense emotional value.】
【After all, she was the key to him advancing his cultivation and breaking through.】
【For such an important client, it was worth being diligent.】
【As time went on, Fu Wangdai grew accustomed to Ye Yu’s presence.】
【The two even began to visit each other frequently, becoming close friends.】
【The village was small, with not many people.】
【Naturally, the sight of Fu Wangdai and Ye Yu growing closer didn’t escape the villagers’ notice.】
【One day, while picking wild vegetables outside, a kind-hearted Aunt Li asked Fu Wangdai when she planned to get together with Ye Yu.】
【Hearing this question, Fu Wangdai was quite surprised.】
【She asked why Aunt Li would ask such a thing.】
【The old lady explained that since Ye Yu had arrived six months ago, he had stayed by Fu Wangdai’s side, always hovering around her.】
【If that wasn’t love, then what could it be?】
【Fu Wangdai was momentarily stunned.】
【That’s right, if it wasn’t love, then what else could it be?】
【What kind of cultivator would choose to stay in a mountain village like this for so long?】
【This wasn’t some blessed land, aside from the beautiful scenery, there was nothing remarkable about it.】
【And indeed, Ye Yu had been exceedingly kind to her.】
【They saw each other every day!】
【At this thought, Fu Wangdai’s mind became a whirlwind of emotions.】
【She had considered living in seclusion, but had never given a thought to matters of the heart.】
【Now, Ye Yu’s presence was throwing her into disarray.】
【So, Fu Wangdai hurried back home.】
【By afternoon, Ye Yu came by with a fishing rod, inviting Fu Wangdai to go fishing.】
【But he received no response.】
【So Ye Yu instinctively used his spiritual sense to check. He found that Fu Wangdai was indeed in her room.】
【If that was the case, why wasn’t she responding?】
【Ye Yu knocked on the door and asked, What’s wrong? Did something happen?】
【After several knocks, Fu Wangdai suddenly opened the door, looking at Ye Yu with a complicated expression.】
【”Is it really because you like me that you’re staying here?”】
【Upon hearing this inner voice, Ye Yu’s expression became exceptionally interesting.】
【What’s this? How did it suddenly turn into liking?】
【Ye Yu sensed something was off.】
【He immediately thought about making a hasty retreat.】
【However, Fu Wangdai called out to him, You like me, don’t you? That’s why you’re staying here.】
【Ye Yu slowly turned around.】
【Suddenly, he heard Fu Wangdai’s inner voice again.】
【”You like me, right? Actually, I like you too. If I could live in the mountains with you forever, how beautiful would that be.”】
【Ye Yu couldn’t help but be moved.】
【In fact, looking back over the past six months, he and Fu Wangdai had been inseparable. He had long since become accustomed to having her around.】
【Describing it as ‘falling in love over time’ would not be an exaggeration.】
【Moreover, through this period of observation, Ye Yu discovered that Fu Wangdai was not a cruel and bloodthirsty person. She even helped injured small animals, treating them with care.】
【If he hadn’t known Fu Wangdai’s identity in advance, Ye Yu might even think she was just an extremely simple and ordinary girl.】
【Since this was the case, why not follow his heart?】
【Ye Yu nodded and said, Yes, I like you. Do you like me?】
【Fu Wangdai’s face showed a charming smile.】
【But she didn’t answer; instead, she closed the door again.】
【Soon after, a voice came from inside: Fool, of course I like you!】
【A few days later.】
【With the villagers as witnesses, Ye Yu and Fu Wangdai got married.】
【After the marriage, their relationship was excellent.】
【They were harmonious and loving!】
【Fu Wangdai’s face also had many more smiles.】
【After some time, Fu Wangdai curiously asked Ye Yu, Husband, since you are a cultivator, why have I never seen you cultivate?】
【Ye Yu gave an awkward smile.】
【In fact, his cultivation had never stopped.】
【Being with Fu Wangdai and listening to her inner thoughts was the fastest way for him to cultivate.】
【Of course, such truth could not be revealed.】
【To handle Fu Wangdai’s curiosity, Ye Yu casually said, I am a scholar, from the Ji Xia Academy. I cultivate the Grand Harmony Qi.】
【Don’t be fooled by my lack of visible practice. I am gathering literary Qi. One day, when I write a poem, my cultivation will surely increase greatly!】
【Fu Wangdai couldn’t help but laugh.】
【”Does he really think I don’t understand cultivation? The Ji Xia Academy is indeed one of the sacred lands of the Western Continent. It does cultivate the Grand Harmony Qi.”】
【”But that is achieved through day and night study. Yet, my husband has never read a book, so where does his Grand Harmony Qi come from?”】
【”Moreover, literary Qi doesn’t need to be accumulated. Either you have it, or you don’t. Is he trying to put on a show for the sake of pride?”】
【”My husband is so cute!”】
【Although she didn’t believe it in her heart, Fu Wangdai pretended to be surprised to accommodate Ye Yu’s feelings: Oh, husband, you’re so amazing.】
【However, Fu Wangdai was truly bad at acting. Her expression was as stiff as it could be.】
【The words she spoke seemed more like a tease!】
【A man’s pride often flares up in an instant.】
【What’s this about putting on a show? Who’s showing off?】
【If you don’t believe me, then I’ll show you!】
【Ye Yu immediately took out a piece of paper from his storage ring, ready to display his talents.】
【But as soon as he pulled out the brush, he hesitated again.】
【What should he write?】
【To be honest, at Ji Xia Academy, Ye Yu had never truly studied the classical texts.】
【He couldn’t even memorize them, let alone write them.】
【But now that he had the brush in hand, he couldn’t just write nothing!】
【Ye Yu glanced at Fu Wangdai beside him.】
【Seeing Ye Yu’s serious expression, Fu Wangdai took the initiative to offer him a way out, Husband, if the literary Qi isn’t enough, then let’s not write for now and accumulate more!】
【A man’s taboo is to never admit weakness in front of a woman!】
【Ye Yu flicked his sleeve dramatically!】
【Killing a million soldiers of Jiangnan, my sword is still stained with blood!】
【A short line of poetry emerged.】
【A wave of intense murderous aura surged skyward.】
【In an instant, strange phenomena occurred.】
【Countless sounds of battle erupted suddenly.】
【The smell of blood filled the air.】
【Looking up, half the sky was stained red!】
【Ye Yu and Fu Wangdai were both stunned by the sight.】
