The sect asked me to marry, and I cultivated to the pinnacle of martial arts!

Chapter 159 Youluo: How dare he let the master do that...aren't you afraid of being punished by the God of the Nine Netherworlds!

In a cave not far from Yunye City, Lu Ye opened his eyes and looked at the Source Crystal, which had turned into two clumps of powder.

"After the fourth level, the two source crystals are far less helpful than they were in the second level."

Feeling the two extra strands of Grandmaster Origin Qi within his body, Lu Ye shook his head slightly, got up, and walked out of the cave.

Outside, the sky is now dotted with stars.

Just as he was about to rush out of the cave, Lu Ye's expression suddenly hardened: "Who's sneaking around?"

"Hey, you're so alert?"

Before the previously empty cave, a person completely shrouded in a black robe suddenly appeared!

Lu Ye immediately felt a sense of vigilance... This person was extremely powerful!
Far above the short, thin Grandmaster level five whom he had killed with a single sword strike during the day!
"What can I do for you, my friend?" Lu Ye asked calmly, cupping his hands in greeting while revealing his cultivation level as the ninth level of the Acquired Realm.

"The technique you were practicing just now...it feels familiar..." The man in black robes stared intently at Lu Ye, his voice slightly hoarse: "And..."

"You can draw upon the primordial energy of heaven and earth within a radius of several miles, yet you're now disguising yourself as a ninth-level Acquired Realm cultivator... Don't you think that's going too far?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Ye felt a chill run down his spine. This person had been attracted by the noise he made while practicing his martial arts.
If it weren't for his extraordinary senses, stronger than those of a typical fourth-level grandmaster, he probably wouldn't have been able to detect this person immediately.

"Friend, it's late, I need to go back and rest, so please excuse me." As soon as Lu Ye finished speaking, he disappeared from the spot.

Lu Ye had no interest in talking to this person of unknown origin.

"Hmm, that's not bad." Inside the black robe, Youluo's eyes lit up slightly. After thinking for a moment, she actually followed.

A moment later, in another grove of trees.

"Why are you following me?" Frowning, Lu Ye turned around: "I don't know you. There should be no enmity between us."

Since cultivating the Four Extremes Transformation of the Soaring Dragon and reaching the minor completion level, this is the first time Lu Ye has encountered someone he can't shake off.

"Your movement technique is quite interesting," the man in black robes said. "Although there is almost no aura around you, if you sense carefully, you can still detect a trace of sharpness. You are a sword cultivator."

"It seems that the good-for-nothing Blood Fiend was killed by a single sword strike, and that was your doing."

Lu Ye's brows furrowed instantly: "You're here to help him get revenge?"

"Blood Fiend Child dares to challenge me?" The man in black robes sneered, "If it weren't for finding my master..."

Before he could finish speaking, the man in black robes suddenly stopped, his body seemingly trembling.

Then, he stretched out a hand, and a withered flower appeared in his palm.

At this moment, a faint, eerie light flickered from the withered flower, as if it might be extinguished at any moment.

"How can you have the Lord's aura on you?! Who are you?!"

Lu Ye's gaze was immediately drawn to the withered flower.

The next second, Lu Ye's gaze changed slightly. This flower... he had seen it before.

Previously, at the deepest part of the Black Forest Swamp, at the foot of Jiang Qingge's stone sculpture, there was a flower of the other shore slowly blooming!

In an instant, Lu Ye roughly guessed the origin of the black-robed man in front of him. Perhaps... it was related to Jiang Qingge!
"Speak!" The man in black robes became anxious when Lu Ye remained silent.

"You call her 'Master'... what are you to her?" Lu Ye asked calmly.

"I am the Lord's most trusted servant!" The black-robed man's voice was no longer feigned; it was clear and cold, yet carried a hint of a sob.

It's like the excitement of finally seeing a glimmer of hope after searching for twenty years.

Lu Ye was somewhat surprised. Did Jiang Qingge, that woman, have such loyal subordinates?
The key point is that his subordinates are quite capable.

Even so, facing the man in black robes, Lu Ye had a vague feeling... this person was even stronger than Fairy Crimson Cloud. At this moment, the withered companion flower finally exhausted the energy it had accumulated during this period, returning to its withered state and becoming still.

The man in black robes carefully put it away and said urgently, "Tell me quickly! Where is our master!"

Lu Ye said calmly, "You must be referring to my wife. Of course she's home."

"Shut up!"

The next moment, an enraged female voice rang out, and the man in black robes roared, "If you dare to tarnish the Lord's reputation again, I will not forgive you!"

A violent and terrifying aura surged from the black-robed man's body.

"I have half of the marriage certificate. Do you want to see it?" Lu Ye calmly took out a marriage certificate from his storage ring.

The man in black robes snatched it away, opened it, and saw two names clearly written on it: Lu Ye and Jiang Qingge.

"My lord's current name is... Jiang Qingge?"

"No! How could our lord possibly marry someone?!"

The man in black robes quickly realized what was happening and, still furious, said, "Besides, you're so weak. Our master controls the Nine Netherworlds and looks down on all the geniuses of the Nine Netherworld Clan. How could he possibly look at you?! You must have used some tricks to deceive our master!"

"If you dare to lie and deceive me again, don't blame me for being impolite!"

"Alright, come with me and see how I'm going to deceive your master." After saying that, Lu Ye left first.

Beneath the black robe, Youluo was filled with rage. She barely suppressed the urge to send the man flying with a single blow and followed him.

Jiang family.

In the courtyard, Jiang Qingge sat feeling lazy all over.

Ever since that blood moon, she seems to have developed a strange affinity for the moon.

"It looks like Lu Ye won't be coming back tonight."

Just as Jiang Qingge was about to get up to wash up after glancing at the still silent courtyard gate, she heard footsteps.

The next second, the person who had just appeared in my mind actually appeared in front of me.

“Lu Ye…you’re back?” A hint of surprise flashed across Jiang Qingge’s face.

Lu Ye glanced at a hidden corner on the roof without making a sound, a slight smile playing on his lips, and said to Jiang Qingge.

"You used to call me husband, why don't you call me that anymore?"

"Ah?" Upon hearing this, a faint blush welled up in Jiang Qingge's heart.

Meanwhile, in a secluded corner of the rooftop, Youluo, who had concealed all her presence, stared blankly at the shy figure in the white dress in the courtyard, tears streaming down her face.

His usually cold eyes were now filled with longing and affection.

"My lord, it really is you... Youluo has finally found you!"

Hearing that the man actually... actually let the lord call him husband, Youluo silently shed tears while her heart was filled with rage.

Such an offense against the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds deserves severe punishment!

However, the next second, when Youluo actually heard her master, who was as beautiful as the moon goddess, shyly utter those two words, she almost fainted on the roof.

"By the God of the Nine Netherworlds, how dare he... how dare he allow the Lord to address him in such a way?!"

"Isn't he afraid? Isn't he afraid of the punishment from the gods of the underworld?!"
