What! The Wives in My Dreams Are Real?

The words of the Chu family's envoy hit the ground with a resounding echo.

The atmosphere in the entire room instantly became quiet.

Xin Wan'en's face turned pale as she stood frozen.

After years of companionship, Ye Yu had long understood that while his master, Xin Wan'en, had extraordinary talent in cultivation, her personality was too gentle.

She had no firm opinions on many matters.

Now that the Xin family's patriarch had passed away and the main members had all died in battle, the once fragmented family had become something she could no longer face.

Now, in this moment of complete isolation, the news of the marriage annulment came.

It was, without a doubt, a slap to the Xin family's face!

However, Xin Wan'en didn't actually care about the marriage.

What struck her was the fact that the Chu family had fallen so quickly to take advantage of the situation.

In the underworld, there are no walls that don't leak information.

The union of the two families had been a huge public event at the time.

Therefore, when the Xin family was annulled, many people would soon hear about it.

At that point, the Xin family would become a laughingstock!

Looking at the desolate scene outside, Xin Wan'en felt a deep sense of grievance.

Father, I can't hold on much longer!

Seeing that Xin Wan'en had remained silent, the Chu family envoy, Chu Huan, thought that she might not want to call off the engagement, so he softly said: "Miss Xin, this matter is already settled. Don't waste your efforts thinking about how to preserve the marriage."

"My lord of the Chu family has said that we will not take the bride price we sent earlier. Consider it our help to get the Xin family through the difficult times."

"But that's it. The Chu and Xin families will no longer have any connections."

"My lord of the Chu family is a true genius, one who will become a prominent figure in the entire underworld in the future. He cannot marry a mere ghost with cultivation in the Transformation God realm."

"Face reality."

Hearing these words, Xin Wan'en's eyes reddened, unsure of what to do.

She wanted to refute but felt her mind in turmoil, unable to come up with a response.

Chu Huan flicked his sleeves and prepared to leave.

At that moment, Ye Yu suddenly spoke up: "Wait!"

Chu Huan and another envoy, Chu Xi, turned back.

With a cold voice, he asked, "What? Does the Xin family have something to relay to us?"

"If you do, please be quick. We have other matters to attend to."

Ye Yu stepped forward and pressed the marriage annulment letter onto the table.

He spoke seriously: "This marriage was already meant to be annulled. Go back and tell your family head, after three years, both my master, Xin Wan'en, and I will personally come to return the bride price to the Chu family."

Chu Huan and Chu Xi's expressions were odd.

They had originally planned to leave early, not wanting to face the Xin family's insistence on not annulling the marriage.

But unexpectedly, Xin Wan'en hadn't said a word, and yet this ghost—Ye Yu—spoke so bluntly, even wanting to return the Chu family's bride price.

This was no small amount of money. Note: Check M_VLEMPY_R for any corrections.

Chu Huan immediately asked: "Who are you from the Xin family? Are your words reliable?"

Ye Yu spoke in a deep voice: "My name is Ye Yu, and the current head of the Xin family, Xin Wan'en, is my master. What I say naturally counts!"

Though he wasn't sure what his disciple was trying to do, Ye Yu knew that Xin Wan'en, having watched him grow, understood that he wouldn't speak recklessly.

So, she too spoke for him: "That's right, what he says is as good as what I say!"

Chu Xi raised three fingers.

"So, three years from today, the bride price will be returned in full?"

Ye Yu nodded: "In three years, I will personally go with my master to the Chu family and give you an explanation!"

Chu Huan and Chu Xi left the Xin family with increasingly satisfied smiles.

In truth, they were still skeptical about Ye Yu's words.

Given the current state of the Xin family, what could they possibly return from the Chu family's bride price?

Those things had probably long been consumed by the deceased patriarch of the Xin family.

But after a second thought, they suddenly realized that Ye Yu's actions were quite reasonable.

The Xin family was currently in such a dilapidated state.

Xin Wan'en only had cultivation in the early stages of the Transformation God realm.

If former enemies came to take °• N 𝑜 v 𝑒 l i g h t •° revenge, they would have no way to stop them.

They would naturally need a shield to protect what was left of the Xin family.

Perhaps Xin Wan'en wanted to use the bride price as an excuse to gain protection from the Chu family.

When they thought about it carefully, this possibility seemed quite high.

Moreover, no matter what, their mission had been completed—they had annulled the marriage and gotten a promise for a three-year delay.

Perhaps after returning, they might even receive a reward!

With that, Chu Huan and Chu Xi's smiles grew even brighter as they hurried back.

Meanwhile, in the main hall of the Xin family, Xin Wan'en asked in confusion: "Yu'er, why did you say that just now?"

"I don't even know what the Chu family's bride price is. It was all collected by the old patriarch."

"Then, how are we going to return it?"

Ye Yu showed a playful smile and tore the annulment letter in his hand.

"Master, since you don't know what the Chu family's bride price is, then let's return them an annulment letter!"

"In three years, let the whole underworld know. It was you, Xin Wan'en, who called off the marriage with the Chu family."

"Not the Chu family calling off the marriage with the Xin family!"

"Master, rise! Thirty years on the east bank of the river, thirty years on the west bank, never underestimate a poor female ghost!"

"The trend of marriage annulment in the underworld should become the new wave!"

Xin Wan'en's expression became increasingly strange.

At first, she could understand the first part of what Ye Yu said, but when it came to the phrases like "Thirty years on the east bank, thirty years on the west bank" or "marriage annulment trends," she really didn't understand a thing.

"Yu'er, could you be talking nonsense?"

However, the idea of letting the entire underworld know that it was she, Xin Wan'en, who had annulled the marriage with the Chu family sounded very domineering.

If it could be realized, it would indeed be very satisfying.

It would also help recover the Xin family's dignity to the greatest extent.

But with the current situation, actually achieving that seemed as difficult as ascending to the heavens.

Xin Wan'en couldn't help but sigh softly.

She spoke quietly: "Yu'er, I might disappoint you."

"You've probably heard the rumors. My soul foundation has been damaged, and perhaps I will be stuck in the Transformation God realm for the rest of my life!"

Ye Yu took a step forward, grabbed Xin Wan'en's delicate hand, and began inspecting her.

With great excitement, he said: "Master, I believe you won't disappoint me."

"As the saying goes, the harder you press, the higher it bounces."

"With three layers of buffs, I don't believe you won't bounce back."

"Now, even if you tell me you can't suppress the entire underworld, I'd believe it."

"No, let's aim higher—let's break through!"
