Chapter 56 - Lazy King

Facing Yun Roumu's inquiry, Ye Yu naturally couldn't tell the truth.

So he pretended to be solemn and said, "Senior Sister, it's better not to inquire too much about worldly affairs."

"Worldly affairs?"

"What worldly affairs are you talking about, Junior Brother?"

Yun Roumu was completely stunned.

But she was even more puzzled in her heart.

She couldn't understand what Ye Yu's identity was, to actually be able to stay overnight in the imperial palace.

You see, the ruler of Great Qian is a woman. How could she let Ye Yu reside in the palace?

No matter in which world, a woman's curiosity is like a bottomless pit.

The less she gets the truth, the more anxious she becomes.

But Ye Yu wasn't interested in continuing the conversation. He waved goodbye to Yun Roumu, saying he needed to go back to rest.

Then he promptly returned to his room, leaving Yun Roumu standing alone at the end of the spirit boat.

This feeling of not getting answers made her very upset. She could only stomp her feet in frustration.

The Great Qian Dynasty is not close to the Azure Cloud Sect.

If they were to return, it would take at least a few hours. Ye Yu didn't intend to waste this time.

He began to review this trip to the Great Qian Dynasty.

Through what had happened these two days, Ye Yu had already figured out one thing.

That is, characters in dreams retain memories from the dream.

But why did Yun Roumu not remember, while Li Ruowang did?

Ye Yu pondered for a moment, speculating a possibility.

That is, in the dream, he and Li Ruowang became husband and wife, while Yun Roumu was just an enemy.

From this, he could infer that wives in dreams retain memories.

If this speculation is correct, then it means that Zhu Diezhen, Yun Wuci, Bu Lingfei, and Ruan Lianyue...

Not only do they truly exist, but they also retain memories from the dream.

This conclusion made Ye Yu's expression very serious.

Except for Ruan Lianyue, the other three are extremely dangerous.

They all have a direct relationship with him.

Especially Yun Wuci and Bu Lingfei, both are cultivators in the Tribulation Crossing realm.

Such a realm, in the cultivation world, is almost equivalent to the existence of a nuclear bomb.

If it comes to a life-or-death situation in reality, what should be done?

In the dream, it has already been attempted.

Under their combined attack, even the top-grade spiritual artifact, Lichun Jade, couldn't guarantee Ye Yu's safety.

Speaking of spiritual artifacts, Ye Yu remembered the top-grade spiritual weapon Forget Sorrow and the Dragon Crystal.

They were also rewarded, but did not fall into Ye Yu's hands.

Without a doubt, they must be in Ruan Lianyue's hands.

With a top grade spiritual weapon in hand, plus the precious Dragon Crystal, in a short time, Ruan Lianyue's strength will definitely experience a sharp rise.

After returning to reality, the memories from the dream will surely reignite her desire for revenge.

What will happen when she comes to kill Ye Yu?

It's truly despicable.

Why didn't he explain clearly to Ruan Lianyue in the dream? Why play such a deep and pure love game?

Now, it's a mess from the start.

So frustrating!

Ye Yu shook his head repeatedly, his expression very serious.

In fact, all his troubles stem from insufficient firepower!

If his realm could crush everyone, why worry like this?

I must quickly improve my strength!

Enter the dream!

Ye Yu immediately closed his eyes, starting the dream simulation.

Hoping the system, seeing his difficult situation of being "surrounded by powerful enemies," would give him some welfare benefits!

[Every dream is a new life for you!]

[Loading map and characters.]

[Selection completed!]

[Talent for this dream: Lazy King (Gold)]

Hiss!

Ye Yu couldn't help but inhale sharply.

A golden talent.

With another legendary golden talent, this time, unless something unexpected happens, it's definitely secure.

And just hearing the name feels awesome.

[Being a Lazy King , fully respecting the law of energy conservation. The more lazy, the stronger.]

[At the same time, to prove the determination to be thoroughly lazy - Additional effect: Effort Exhaustion.]

[The harder you try, the more your realm regresses!]

Ye Yu's mouth twitched slightly.

There's even an additional effect?

Looks like it's a forced lazy type.

But that's fine too. Trying hard and all, it's the most tiring thing.

[Age 0, you were born in a seaside village.]

[Both parents were ordinary people.]

[They were very happy about your birth.]

[Age 12, as you gradually grew up, you became fond of fishing and catching shrimp.]

[But no matter how hard you tried, you never caught a fish or shrimp.]

[For someone born in a fishing village, this was a great shame.]

[You, who lived by the sea, couldn't even master the most basic life skills. What else could you do?]

[As time passed, you became known as a waste in the village.]

[But you had a spirit that refused to accept defeat. Day after day, you began to practice fishing skills.]

[Age 14, after two years of relentless effort.]

[You... finally accepted your fate.]

[In two years, over seven hundred days and nights, you didn't catch a single fish or shrimp.]

[Even your parents, who had always encouraged you not to lose heart, fell silent.]

[You felt useless.]

[So you sat alone on a seaside rock, staring out at the sea.]

[You sat like this for an entire day.]

[Evening fell.]

[Just as you were about to head home, a big fish, weighing about ten kilograms, leaped out of the sea and landed in your arms.]

[Feeling the weight in your hands, you fell into deep thought.]

[Finally, you believed that perhaps this was a reward from heaven for your bad luck.]

[When you brought the fish home, your parents wept tears of joy.]

[They didn't care how big the fish was. They were just happy that you had the means to make a living.]

[But when they found out the truth, the expressions on their faces became incredibly colorful.]

[Age 15.]

[Your nickname changed from waste to the lucky guy.]

[Every day, just sitting by the sea, unexpected harvests would come.]

[During this time, you also tried fishing and shrimp-catching again. But as before, you couldn't catch anything.]

[So you gradually got used to living a lazy life.]

[One afternoon, as usual, you were sitting on a huge rock.]

[But unexpectedly, instead of fish, you encountered a middle-aged man in a coma. He was floating on the sea, with a sizable wound on his shoulder.]

[But you realized he hadn't died. So you carried him home and treated his wounds.]

[The next day, the middle-aged man slowly woke up.]

[When he heard that you had saved him, his gaze towards you softened immensely.]

[The middle-aged man told you he was the sect master of Amethyst Sky Sect, named Zhuang Chengbi.]

[He had been besieged by demonic cultivators, his spiritual energy depleted, leading to his fall into the sea. Since you saved him, you deserved a reward.]

[Zhuang Chengbi gave you two choices:]

[1. Become his disciple and embark on the path of cultivation.]

[2. He would leave behind a bottle of spiritual pills and elixirs, ensuring your health and longevity, no problem at all.]
