[Returning to the East Sea, Su Yao once again resumed her human form with a fish tail.]

[She ignored everyone.]

[She went straight back to her room, leaning against the door with her body.]

[Her stunning face was flushed with redness.]

[Just now, pecking Ye Yu on the forehead, it had drained all her courage.]

[Looking back now, she still felt somewhat weak all over.]

[Would Junior Brother think I was too abrupt?]

[This thought made Su Yao once again feel a bit uneasy.]

[After a moment, Su Yao quickly adjusted her mindset.]

[She took out all the things Ye Yu had just given her and neatly arranged them on two large tables.]

[Su Yao propped her face up with one hand, gazing at the treasures before her.]

[A perfect arc formed at the corners of her lips.]

[Junior Brother definitely liked her. Otherwise, why would he give all these good things to her?]

[Silly Junior Brother, you treat me so well.]

[How should I repay you?]

[How about using that item as part of the dowry!]

[Su Yao’s eyes gradually became determined.]

[She murmured to herself, Junior Brother, wait for me. I will definitely return to your side as soon as possible.]

[As long as you don’t mind my identity, I will accompany you for the rest of my life, never leaving or abandoning you!]

[In the following time, Ye Yu’s cultivation once again surged.]

[Investment completed, return rate of ninety-eight times.]

[Investment completed, return rate of one hundred twenty-seven times.]

[…]

[Fourteen days later.]

[Ye Yu had successfully reached the mid-stage of the Integration Realm.]

[And he had obtained a set of Earth-level cultivation techniques.]

[Although only cultivated to the small success stage, the results in such a short time were extremely satisfying for Ye Yu.]

[It seemed Su Yao was really following his advice.]

[She began using the tresures of heaven and earth and cultivation techniques he had sent.]

[This was a very good sign.]

[During this period, Ye Yu had not left the spirit boat, continuously hovering near the Wuqing Island.]

[He had guessed that Su Yao was indeed a water nymph.]

[According to Zhen Lang’s statements, water nymphs had been discovered fighting other sea demons here.]

[So it was very likely that Su Yao had set the half-month deadline because of this.]

[Sure enough, on the night of the fourteenth day, a large amount of blood appeared on the previously calm sea surface.]

[Seeing this situation, Ye Yu did not hesitate and went straight down.]

[He used the Water Avoidance Technique and successfully sank to the seabed.]

[To his astonishment, he found nearly a hundred water nymphs gathered here, engaged in fierce combat with a group of sea demons.]

[Among them was Jiang Yue, whom he had seen on Wuqing Island before.]

[At this moment, Jiang Yue also saw Ye Yu.]

[A look of shock appeared in her eyes.]

[She thought he was a helper summoned by Matriarch Su Yao.]

[So she immediately shouted, Aren’t you coming to help?]

[Hearing this, Ye Yu raised his eyebrows slightly.]

[He asked in confusion, You knew I was coming?]

[This question surprised Jiang Yue.]

[She quickly asked, Aren’t you the helper called by the Matriarch?]

[Ye Yu did not deny it but asked in return, Su Yao?]

[Jiang Yue instinctively nodded.]

[Upon receiving this answer, Ye Yu was quite surprised.]

[He really hadn’t expected that Senior Sister Su Yao was actually the clan leader of these water nymphs!]

[Since that’s the case, then we’re on the same side!]

[Definitely have to help!]

[Ye Yu did not hesitate. He immediately activated the Eternal Star Diagram!]

[In an instant, the night sky was filled with twinkling stars.]

[The light instantly penetrated through the seabed.]

[A massive formation was formed here.]

[Underneath all sea creatures except the water nymphs, a strange pattern appeared.]

[This sudden change startled everyone present.]

[Ye Yu’s hands moved, causing the strange pattern to slowly rotate.]

[In the next second, countless ice spikes suddenly appeared, radiating a blue light all over.]

[They precisely penetrated the hearts of all sea demons.]

[Sea demons below the late stage of Divine Transformation Realm died on the spot.]

[Those above the late stage of Divine Transformation Realm were heavily injured even if they did not die.]

[This move was the Nine Turns Profound Ice Annihilation Array, the most lethal formation in the Eternal Star Diagram!]

[After the array concluded, almost all the sea demons were dead.]

[The few remaining were all severely injured, looking at Ye Yu in terror.]

[Then they all used their techniques to flee.]

[The ability to instantly reverse the situation took all the water nymphs by surprise.]

[Especially Jiang Yue.]

[Her expression was particularly vivid.]

[How is this possible?]

[How could this human cultivator have such terrifying power?]

[Wait!]

[When did he break through?]

[Wasn’t this human at the peak of Divine Transformation Realm when we last met? He’s already entered the Integration Realm so quickly?]

[And Jiang Yue was in the early stage of the Integration Realm, so she couldn’t see through Ye Yu’s cultivation.]

[Does this mean Ye Yu has already stepped into the mid or even late stage of the Integration Realm?]

[In just half a month’s time….]

[How could such a huge leap be accomplished?]

[While Jiang Yue was astonished, Ye Yu had already arrived by her side.]

[He asked in confusion, Where is Su Yao?]

[Upon hearing this, Jiang Yue’s expression changed.]

[She quickly pointed to the northern sea area and explained:]

[The Matriarch, in order to relieve our pressure, has gone alone to attract the Nine-Headed Flood Dragon Yang Qi and two Integration sea demons over there. Senior, we hope you can come help us.]

[In the cultivation world, the experts take precedence.]

[Given that Ye Yu’s cultivation is higher than hers, it’s reasonable for Jiang Yue to address him as Senior!]

[Hearing this, Ye Yu immediately became anxious.]

[Although he didn’t know the exact cultivation level of the Nine-Headed Flood Dragon, just the two Dao Integration sea demons were enough to make things extremely difficult for Su Yao.]

[Without any hesitation, Ye Yu transformed into a streak of light and headed north.]

[Su Yao was his investment. If she were to die, it would be extremely difficult for Ye Yu to ascend to the Heavenly Realm.]

[Moreover, Ye Yu had already regarded Su Yao as his Dao companion in his heart.]

[For both emotional and rational reasons, he had to save her. Naturally, he couldn’t afford to delay.]

[At this very moment, a hundred miles away.]

[Su Yao’s complexion was slightly pale.]

[Opposite her, three figures formed a pincer attack against her.]

[The leader among them was Yang Qi, the Nine-Headed Flood Dragon Jiang Yue had mentioned.]

[He wore a black robe and held a silver sea-controlling trident. His face was cold.]

[Behind him, eight dragon heads stared intently at Su Yao.]
