The Road to Chasing My Husband Is Still Long

At this moment, in Boys' Dormitory Room 205.

Xie Xie was already sitting on his bed, unable to contain his impatience.

"Brother Cheng, do you want to come over to my bed and cultivate together?"

This passionate remark gave Cheng Duoyi goosebumps.

"You'd better cultivate on your own; I'm going to sleep."

Cheng Duoyi flopped down and went straight to sleep.

Yun Xiao walked over to the bedside and looked down at Xie Xie.

"Xie Xie, Brother Cheng is straight, not bent. Besides, you wouldn't be able to compete with Tang Wuling and Gu Yue anyway, so you'd better give up on that idea early."

Yun Xiao's teasing words made Xie Xie snap back to reality, and he hurriedly explained, "Brother Cheng, I like boys!"

"Haha! You finally admitted it, you like boys!"

"No, no, I was led astray by Yun Xiao! I've always liked girls!"

"The things you say subconsciously are your true thoughts. You've already admitted it, so don't hide it anymore. I'll help you keep your secret!"

Xie Xie now found that no matter what he said, it was useless, so he simply ignored Yun Xiao.

Seeing this, Yun Xiao stopped talking as well, because he realized that Cheng Duoyi was truly asleep; he looked like he had already drifted off.

"So fast? Brother Cheng's sleep quality is really good!"

"My rank is the lowest, so I have to hurry and keep up with the pace of Brother Cheng and the others!"

Yun Xiao still felt a sense of crisis in his heart.

However, his martial soul was right there: the Star Disk.

His first soul ring was only a ten-year soul ring, and the effect of his soul skill was merely to swap positions with someone within the target range. It lacked any offensive capability, and strictly speaking, it didn't even have the utility to assist teammates.

"I must work hard to break through to level twenty and find a suitable soul spirit then. Otherwise... I'll be left behind by Brother Cheng and the others!"

Meanwhile, in a certain room.

A middle-aged man of about thirty years old knelt respectfully on one knee, lowered his head, and asked, "My Lord, have you truly found the Matriarch?"

His tone carried both excitement and longing.

Another burly man with a sturdy build also knelt on one knee, lowered his head, and asked, "My Lord, why didn't you bring the Matriarch back with you..."

"Are you teaching me how to do things?"

Purple light erupted from Gu Yue's eyes, and a powerful aura pressed down upon the burly man.

The burly man was none other than Xiong Jun, one of the Ten Great Fierce Beasts.

One must know that Xiong Jun was a 490,000-year-old fierce beast!

As a Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, his strength was unfathomable.

At the same cultivation level, a Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear could rival a giant dragon!

Yet, such a powerful existence was now like a puppy, instantly dropping to both knees and trembling uncontrollably: "My Lord, spare me! This subordinate was just too happy about the Matriarch's return; I meant nothing else by it!"

The middle-aged man was the head of the Ten Great Fierce Beasts, the 900,000-year-old Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King Di Tian. Seeing that Gu Yue had truly developed killing intent, he hurriedly said, "My Lord, Xiong Jun is just a brainless brute. Killing him wouldn't matter, but we are currently in a time where we need manpower. I beg you to give Xiong Jun another chance to make up for his mistake."

"Yes, yes, yes! I am a brainless brute! My Lord, I will definitely be careful with my words in the future. Please give me a chance to make amends!" Seeing Di Tian interceding, Xiong Jun felt grateful and did not forget to beg for mercy.

Gu Yue's expression was dark and uncertain, but she finally let out a cold snort: "This is the last time. If there is a next time, end your own life!"

"Yes, yes, yes! This subordinate knows he was wrong; there will not be a next time." Xiong Jun breathed a sigh of relief and spoke quickly.

Besides the two of them, there was also a gentle and clear-eyed woman who looked to be in her twenties, and another woman who also looked to be in her twenties but was alluring and fiery.

They were Bi Ji, one of the Ten Great Fierce Beasts, and Zi Ji, also one of the Ten Great Fierce Beasts.

They also knelt on one knee, and Bi Ji asked, "I wonder if you have any instructions for your subordinates now that you have returned, My Lord?"

Gu Yue glanced at Bi Ji, then looked at them, her tone carrying unquestionable majesty: "I have only one purpose for returning this time: to find the heavenly treasures that can heal your Matriarch. I don't care if you have to rob or purchase them; you must find them for me!"

"Is the Matriarch injured? My Lord, who did it! We will go kill him right now!" Di Tian looked up at Gu Yue, his tone filled with anger.

Gu Yue said helplessly, "No one harmed your Matriarch; this matter is my fault."

The four great fierce beasts were confused: "What?"

Gu Yue said, "Your Matriarch has reincarnated as a human in this life, and is even a man, which happens to complement me. However, his awakening of his martial soul triggered the illness from his past life, and his vitality is slipping away at every moment. If it weren't for the Dragon God Heart sensing his existence and merging to become his heart, along with Na'er's help, your Matriarch might still be lying in bed right now."

Di Tian said in shock, "The Dragon God Heart! How could the Matriarch merge with the Dragon God Heart? And is the Dragon God Heart not enough to save the Matriarch?"

Di Tian knew exactly what the Dragon God Heart was.

It was precisely because he knew that he was so surprised; if even the Dragon God Heart couldn't save the Matriarch, then it was likely no one could.

Bi Ji hurriedly asked, "My Lord, what is going on? Why would the Matriarch's awakening of his martial soul trigger an illness from his past life? And how is Lord Na'er related to the Matriarch?"

Zi Ji quickly said, "This subordinate already understands. I will do my utmost to scour for heavenly treasures that increase lifespan and will also search for ways to treat the Matriarch."

Xiong Jun also wanted to say something, but fearing he would say the wrong thing and cause Gu Yue discomfort, he ultimately remained silent.

Gu Yue glanced at Xiong Jun, who stood there at a loss.

Am I even wrong for not speaking now?

Fortunately, Gu Yue ignored Xiong Jun and said helplessly, "Regarding Na'er, you need not concern yourselves for now. As for the cause of your Mistress's past-life illness triggered by her martial soul awakening, I am also uncertain. Regarding the Dragon God Heart, I speculate that it is because your Mistress lacks the Dragon God bloodline within her, rendering her unable to truly utilize it."

Gu Yue continued, "Three years ago, Na'er encountered your Mistress, and the two formed a deep bond. The Dragon God Heart absorbed the residual Silver Dragon King aura within Na'er, which allowed it to exert a sliver of its power and preserve your Mistress. With me here now, your Mistress will not be in any mortal danger, but..."

Gu Yue thought of her three-year pact with Na'er; in three years' time, Na'er would also appear to vie for Cheng Duoyi.

She had originally thought she could win over Cheng Duoyi within three years, but she had not expected Tang Wuling to be by his side!

And Tang Wuling actually possessed the Golden Dragon King bloodline within her!

This nearly impossible event had come to pass, and now Gu Yue felt uncertain.

If the Golden Dragon King bloodline within Tang Wuling grew any stronger, given their relationship, would there even be a place for her?

If only Na'er were here... she could at least share the burden.

Now that Na'er was absent, wouldn't Tang Wuling be the one who had been with Cheng Duoyi the longest?

Gu Yue suddenly regretted the three-year pact with Na'er; if Na'er were present, the two of them could join forces to drive Tang Wuling away, and then they could compete fairly.

But now...

Gu Yue thought of how Cheng Duoyi called her Sister Yue'er.

I still have a chance!

Gu Yue forced herself to calm down and looked at the four Great Beasts kneeling on one knee: "Forget it. You only need to know this: search for heavenly treasures that replenish life force. If there are any unique items, purchase them as well; I wish to present them to your Mistress personally."

"Very well, you may all withdraw."

After Gu Yue finished speaking, the four Great Beasts nodded: "Yes, Lord."

Before the four Great Beasts departed, Gu Yue added, "Remember to purchase some novels, preferably those in the 'chasing a husband' series."

Di Tian and the other beasts exchanged glances: "Yes, Lord."
