# Chapter 3262: The Realm Lord's Wife
"Of course not, because Zhang Ruochen would never do such a thing."
Wu Yue's gaze was sincere and clear, without any hint of malice. The way she addressed "Ruochen" came quite naturally, like a couple who had treated each other with mutual respect for many years. It was like a wife who firmly believed her husband would never have another woman outside.
Xiu Chen Heavenly God looked at Wu Yue with a strange expression, finding it unbelievable.
A figure like Wu Yue suddenly becoming such a virtuous wife and loving mother?
This Zhang Ruochen fellow really had impressive skills!
Back in the Dark Great Triangle Star Domain, Xiu Chen Heavenly God had advised Zhang Ruochen to win Wu Yue's favor in order to resolve their conflict. After all, Wu Yue's reputation was formidable, her methods were impressive, and she held a high position in the Darkness Temple—not someone to be easily offended.
Who would have thought that in just a few years, their relationship had become so deep?
Was the murderous Wu Yue about to become a devoted wife and mother, turning over a new leaf?
Zhang Ruochen knew that continuing to discuss this issue was pointless, so he said, "I don't know the specific situation at the Starry Sky Defense Line, but the defense line was laid down by the Heavens. Can the Great Gods easily break through it? Moreover, the various ancient civilizations have operated in that star domain for many years. The fortresses formed by worlds, secret realms, and stars are as solid as iron."
"Even if Xuan Yi is not dead, with the combined strength of the entire Quantity Organization, they can at most open a gap from Jia Tianxia's position. The second Starry Sky Defense Line won't be completely overrun that easily!"
Wu Yue said, "Do you think the Hell Realm army will eventually retreat?"
"I believe that gods below the Infinite Realm cannot break through the defense line laid down by the Heavens. But..." Zhang Ruochen's gaze suddenly turned profound as he thought of the Thunder Clan.
Was Xuan Yi really a member of the Thunder Clan?
Would the Thunder Clan take this opportunity to emerge?
This was an unpredictable variable!
Just like the awakening of the seventy-two Demon God Pillars, it would throw the world's situation into chaos.
Wu Yue had obtained Xuan Yi's Divine Heart and part of his flesh and bones, and had detected the Shocking Thunder Scepter. She had some guesses about Xuan Yi's identity, saying, "The Infinite Realm experts of the Heavenly Court and Hell Realm are about to return. Before that, there will inevitably be great upheavals in the universe. If an Infinite Realm expert suddenly appears, the first one they target will certainly be you."
Zhang Ruochen showed no fear at all, saying, "As far as I know, from the North Marsh Great Wall to the cosmic starry sky where the Heavenly Court and Hell Realm are located, even an Infinite Realm existence would need more than ten years to travel, right? As for other Infinite Realm experts emerging, the Watchers will deal with them. There's nothing to worry about."
"Rather, it's you. Now, do you want to be the Hall Master of the Spirit God Hall of the Darkness Temple, or the wife of the Realm Lord of Xinghuantian?"
"What do you want me to be?" Wu Yue asked in return.
Zhang Ruochen said, "Do what you want to do. Leave the choice to you. That way, in the future, you won't at least place all the blame on me. In everything between us, I have always been passive, forced, and even victimized."
"Hehe!"
Wu Yue couldn't help but smile charmingly.
She had already calculated and knew what Zhang Ruochen, Xiu Chen, and the Jue Miao Zen Nun had discussed.
It was really hard on Zhang Ruochen, being scared by the troublesome matters of the Zhang Clan's ancestors.
Indeed, even existences like the Immovable Bright King Great Venerable and Xumi Saint Monk couldn't handle the word "emotion" well, ruining their illustrious reputations and bringing trouble to their descendants.
Anyone with feelings, who wouldn't be afraid?
"As a god of the Hell Realm, I must immediately rush to the second Starry Sky Defense Line. Whether I can completely break through it or not, I must give it my all."
Wu Yue returned to her cold and decisive demeanor, then added, "But as the wife of the Realm Lord of Xinghuantian, if you send me a message, I will rush back to help you at any time, making your matters my top priority. As long as you open your mouth, even if it means opposing the Hell Realm, I will help you."
Wu Yue left, disappearing into the starry sky.
Earlier, Hai Shang You Ruo, Hun Qi, Jue Miao Zen Nun, and Xue Jue War God had already represented various forces of the Hell Realm in clearing Zhang Ruochen's name, essentially declaring to the world that Zhang Ruochen was not a Quantity Agent.
He had only disguised himself as a Quantity Agent to destroy the Quantity Organization.
In doing so, Wu Yue, who had saved Zhang Ruochen, also cleared herself, no longer needing to hide in the shadows.
Xiu Chen Heavenly God let out a clicking sound with her mouth, saying, "This Wu Yue is truly formidable! If you really open your mouth and ask her to help you, you are acknowledging her status and position. From now on, if you want to keep her from entering the Zhang family's door or not acknowledge her as your wife, you first can't get past your own conscience. She knows you very well, knowing that you, Zhang Ruochen, are not someone without feelings and righteousness, so she took advantage of this point."
"Now, she can calmly represent the Darkness Temple and head to the Starry Sky Defense Line. But you don't dare to send a message calling her back."
Zhang Ruochen said, "Xiu Miaoli, you talk too much. Who says I don't dare to send a message? If I call her back, would she dare not to come?"
"Then send the message! If you dare to send it now, you'll never find a reason to shake her off in the future. Zhang Ruochen, you can't control Wu Yue right now, and you don't dare to try. Because you know very well that you don't understand her at all. She could change into another appearance at any moment. The gentleness and virtuousness before you are all pretenses. You want me, this god, to pretend like that too, right?" Xiu Chen Heavenly God said.
Zhang Ruochen said quite seriously, "Can you?"
Xiu Chen Heavenly God's gaze turned icy cold, and killing light gathered between her ten fingers, saying, "You really have ill intentions!"
Zhang Ruochen took out a Divine Soul Divine Pill and said, "As long as you say one sentence slightly gently—'From now on, I, Xiu Chen, will change my name to Xiu Miaoli'—this Divine Pill is yours!"
A hundred thousand years ago, Xiu Chen Heavenly God's cultivation was close to the Indestructible Infinite Realm, not much different from the Heavens of that era.
She only needed to swallow the Divine Soul Divine Pill, and her cultivation and strength would rapidly increase.
"One Divine Pill, and you want this god to submit? You underestimate the dignity of a peerless Heavenly God!" Xiu Chen Heavenly God sneered.
Zhang Ruochen frowned, saying, "That seems right. How could a Heavenly God bend for a single Divine Pill? What a pity. If you swallow this Divine Pill, your divine soul can at least recover to the level of one-tenth of an Infinite Realm expert."
"Combined with the Sundial body and your mastery of divine techniques and secret arts, the combat power you can unleash... forget it, I'll just improve my own cultivation first!"
Except for the Ghost Clan and some gods who primarily cultivate their divine souls, the vast majority of Tai Xu peak Great Gods, after breaking through the Soul Stop Realm, have a divine soul strength reaching one-tenth of an Infinite Realm expert.
In this world, those below the Infinite Realm whose divine souls exceed three-tenths of an Infinite Realm are extremely rare. These people all have the opportunity to become kings and venerables in the future.
Seeing that Xiu Chen Heavenly God was still stubbornly holding on without any intention of compromising, Zhang Ruochen added, "It's just saying one sentence, and besides, only the two of us are here. After you say it, you can go back on it later!"
"For the sake of so-called illusory dignity, giving up a Divine Pill that is within easy reach—how stubborn. A truly shrewd person would use any means and never let go of easily obtainable benefits."
Xiu Chen Heavenly God quickly glanced around without leaving a trace, thinking and hesitating.
She longed to return to the Infinite Realm every moment!
As long as her divine soul reached ten-tenths of an Infinite Realm, she was confident that even without a divine source, she could fight a God King. Even if she didn't restore her former glory, she could at least ensure that no one dared to underestimate her.
Gods like Ming Jian Shen, who had once severely humiliated her, she very much wanted to take revenge on.
Seeing Zhang Ruochen about to put the Divine Pill into his mouth, Xiu Chen Heavenly God coldly and quickly said, "From now on, this god will change her name to Xiu Miaoli."
Zhang Ruochen, who had already brought the Divine Pill to his lips, paused slightly.
Then, he still swallowed it.
Xiu Chen Heavenly God stared wide-eyed at this scene, her gaze as if it could tear Zhang Ruochen into pieces.
"I said, say it gently. Your tone doesn't sound like a woman's; it's too perfunctory!" Zhang Ruochen said leisurely while refining the Divine Soul Divine Pill.
"Too much! This god will fight you to the death!"
Xiu Chen Heavenly God's long hair flew wildly, her ten fingers turning into sharp claws as she attacked Zhang Ruochen.
"Boom!"
Divine might surged, and the attack was fierce.
But in an instant, Xiu Chen Heavenly God was sucked into the Sundial, once again becoming its artifact spirit.
The Sundial flew into Zhang Ruochen's palm, trembling violently and emitting blinding divine light.
Zhang Ruochen soothed it, saying, "Don't be so angry. My conditions really aren't harsh. It's you who didn't seize the opportunity. If it were another god, they would have directly refined your spiritual will and made you a slave or servant. I'm really quite polite to you."
The Sundial still vibrated, transmitting Xiu Chen Heavenly God's curses.
Zhang Ruochen said, "Divine Soul Divine Pills really aren't a big deal. I have plenty here. As long as you're a bit more obedient, I can help you reach ten-tenths of an Infinite Realm within this Eon."
"Miaoli, don't go too far. I'm giving you such good advice, and you still won't listen? Do you really want me to fall out with you?"
...
Zhang Ruochen was very patient, persuading, coaxing, and threatening, finally calming Xiu Chen Heavenly God down.
"Come out!"
Zhang Ruochen had sensed something long ago and said this casually, putting the Sundial away.
