Ye Yu suddenly turned around and saw a stunningly beautiful woman.
She stood on a flying sword, hovering in the air.
Ye Yu's eyelids twitched uncontrollably.
Flying with a sword was something only peak Foundation Establishment cultivators or even Golden Core realm cultivators could achieve.
What should he do now?
Originally, Ye Yu planned to dispose of Hou Wang and Hou Zhen, then toss their bodies down the mountain without anyone noticing. It was a seamless plan.
But now, someone clearly saw everything.
This made it truly impossible for him to explain away what had happened.
Seeing that Ye Yu remained silent, the woman flying on the sword spoke in a deep voice, "I am Wei Aoshu from the Enforcement Hall of Azure Cloud Sect. Now, answer me, what technique did you just use?"
Ye Yu clenched his fists tightly.
Still, he remained silent.
He genuinely didn't know how to explain.
Capturing souls. That was clearly a technique of the demonic sects, having nothing to do with the Azure Cloud Sect. Furthermore, killing an inner sect disciple was a capital offense. If discovered by the Enforcement Hall disciples, immediate punishment would follow.
No matter how one looked at it, he was doomed.
Damn it! Having just been introduced to the system, he already ran into such bad luck? If only he had more time to develop.
After thinking it over multiple times, just when he considered fighting to the death...
Wei Aoshu suddenly smiled. She jumped off her flying sword, approached Ye Yu, and whispered, "Ten Thousand Souls Hall!"
Hearing these three words, Ye Yu's eyes widened suddenly.
How did this woman know about the Ten Thousand Souls Hall?
Could it be that the Ten Thousand Souls Hall from his dreams actually existed here?
"The technique you just used is the Soul Capture from the Ten Thousand Souls Hall, right? I am also from the Ten Thousand Souls Hall. Meeting me is truly your good fortune."
Wei Aoshu raised an eyebrow slightly.
Her entire demeanor exuded allure.
Ye Yu couldn't help but sigh with relief.
This was truly fortunate!
He had encountered an undercover agent from the Ten Thousand Souls Hall here.
It seemed that this demonic sect actually existed in this reality.
Most importantly, she didn't recognize the technique he used as the Ten Thousand Souls Technique, mistaking it for a basic soul capturing technique.
This was almost too good to be true.
But Wei Aoshu's next words instantly made Ye Yu tense all over.
"You look so unfamiliar. Which elder's disciple are you?"
Ye Yu's mind almost went haywire.
Which elder's disciple?
He didn't even know the direction to the Ten Thousand Souls Hall, so how could he possibly know the names of the elders?
He couldn't just make something up!
Seeing Ye Yu still not speaking, Wei Aoshu waved her hand and said, "Forget it, forget it. You're just a tight-lipped guy. No matter what I ask, you won't say anything. Although we have rules about not revealing our secret identities and not contacting each other privately while infiltrating Azure Cloud Sect, we met by chance. Can't we just chat a little? I really don't know what you're thinking."
Hearing this, Ye Yu felt greatly relieved.
This meant that Wei Aoshu also didn't know who all the undercover agents were.
That was perfect.
Ye Yu said softly, "It's not that I'm tight-lipped. I just haven't calmed down yet."
Maybe it was because she had been undercover in the Azure Cloud Sect for too long and felt too stifled, when she saw that Ye Yu was willing to talk, Wei Aoshu smiled again.
"It's nothing. It's just killing two people. It's not a big deal. I'll take care of the bodies for you."
With a wave of her hand, Wei Aoshu stored Hou Zhen and Hou Wang's bodies in a storage space.
Then she continued, "I'll arrange it to look like they were attacked by spirit beasts. You don't need to worry about this anymore. From now on, I've got your back!"
Her assertive declaration made Wei Aoshu appear like a protective big sister.
Seeing Wei Aoshu being so enthusiastic, Ye Yu couldn't help but develop a favorable impression of this woman in front of him.
So he thanked her repeatedly.
Afterward, the two of them chatted for a while.
However, it was mostly Wei Aoshu who spoke, while Ye Yu spoke little.
It wasn't that Ye Yu was bad at conversation; he just feared that saying too much might reveal a flaw. Being cautious was always the right approach.
Although Wei Aoshu appeared aloof at first glance, her character was surprisingly straightforward.
Not only did she not suspect Ye Yu's identity, but she also promised him that within three days, she would find a suitable reason for him to become an inner disciple of Azure Cloud Sect.
Naturally, Ye Yu didn't refuse.
Who would want to keep working in the outer sect forever?
Moreover, if he, at the Foundation Establishment stage, was discovered by a master of Azure Cloud Sect while still in the outer sect, who knows what they would suspect?
After bidding farewell to Wei Aoshu, Ye Yu sat down near the spiritual field.
As soon as the sky began to darken slightly, he couldn't wait to return to his wooden house.
He was ready to engage in dream simulation.
The events of today were undoubtedly a wake-up call for Ye Yu.
This fantasy world was too dangerous.
Only by becoming strong himself could he safely survive.
Today, fortunately, he had met Wei Aoshu. If it were someone else, Ye Yu would likely have ended up with more bad luck than good.
Luck cannot always favor one person indefinitely.
Ye Yu couldn't expect to be this lucky every time. So, he could only strive to become stronger continuously.
Ye Yu slowly closed his eyes.
In his mind, he called out to the system.
"Initiate dream simulation!"
[Yes, Host. You have two dream simulation opportunities remaining for today. Now commencing the next round of dream simulation]
The next moment, a mist appeared again in Ye Yu's mind. After two breaths, it gradually dispersed.
[Every dream is a new life for you!]
[Loading map and characters.]
[Selection completed!]
[Talent for this dream: Wandering Heart Blossom (Gold)]
[Wandering Heart Blossom: Endless Charm. Universal love is great love. The more people who love you, the faster your cultivation progresses.]
Hmm, a gold-tier talent!
Ye Yu's eyes snapped open wide.
This time, he actually drew a gold-tier talent directly.
This was definitely the rhythm to take off right from the start.
Starting with an extraordinary advantage!
Universal love? Great love?
Wouldn't that mean leaving a mark everywhere he went?
Perfect for a scumbag system.
Tch.
But I like it.
An unintended smile appeared on Ye Yu's face.
[Age 0: You were born in an Imperial Censorate in the Great Qian Dynasty.]
[This is an immortal cultivation dynasty.]
[Your father, Ye Liangyan, though an Imperial Censor, also possesses Foundation Establishment cultivation.]
[Age 8: A new emperor ascends to the throne in the Great Qian Dynasty.]
[Your father, Ye Liangyan, is valued by the emperor and promoted to Vice Minister of the Grand Court.]
[In just one day, a meteoric rise.]
[And his love for you grows stronger.]
[He gives you whatever you want.]
[Age 15: Your father, Ye Liangyan, is promoted again to become a Cabinet Scholar.]
[But you are not overly happy.]
[Because your path of cultivation is not smooth.]
[Despite countless experts and masters in the mansion, supplemented by medicinal pills, you are still stuck at the initial stage of Qi Refining, unable to make any progress.]
[This made you very frustrated.]
[You could only watch as your childhood friends around you grew stronger one by one.]
[While you were powerless.]
[Seeing you like this, Ye Liangyan was also deeply worried.]
[On the eve of your 18th birthday, you were still stuck at the initial stage of Qi Refining.]
[You were listless, lacking the youthful vigor.]
[After much thought, Ye Liangyan called you to his study.]
[He earnestly told you that even if you couldn't cultivate, it didn't matter.]
[The family's power could ensure you a worry-free life, and with heavenly materials and treasures, you could live to be three hundred years old.]
[Your future life couldn't continue to be wasted away like this.]
[As a man, you should have goals, ambitions.]
[You could become rich through business, or enter the court with outstanding literary talent.]
[At the very least, you could gather beautiful women from all over the world, enjoying a life of song and dance.]
