What! The Wives in My Dreams Are Real?-Chapter 363
Looking at Ye Yu’s serious expression.
Hong Luan couldn’t help but feel a bit dazed.
That day, while drunk, she had accidentally promised Wei Aoshun.
That was when she took Ye Yu as her disciple.
It had only been half a year since then.
Although Ye Yu always talked tough, whenever he had free time, he would help her play with spirit stones to make up for her losses.
And from time to time, he would even send some spiritual wine.
To say the least, he was much better than Tuoba Qiyue, who only read novels all day, and the cold Xie Muling.
Moreover, Hong Luan could feel that Ye Yu truly cared about her as his master.
This feeling was really quite warming.
Besides that.

Ye Yu’s secrets were also the biggest.
From his initial Foundation Establishment stage to now, even she couldn’t see through his cultivation.
Such a rapid cultivation speed could only be described as monstrous.
In her long years, this was the first time she had encountered such a thing.
Perhaps he truly was a good successor.
After thinking for a long while.
Hong Luan changed her usual nonchalant attitude.
She slowly spoke, for the first time, about her past.
Tens of thousands of years ago, the sects flourished, and cultivators displayed their skills.
There were many Tribulation Transcendence stage experts, and even more Ascended stage cultivators.
Compared to now, it was a completely different world.
At that time, the cultivation world was at its peak.
However, the greater the power of humans, the greater their greed.
The cultivators of the five continents fought constantly.
Everyone wanted more resources.
As a result, many cultivators perished.
Perhaps many people disapproved of this, but no one could change it.
Survival of the fittest is the unchanging law.
During that era, each continent had its own supreme cultivator who held immense power, suppressing entire regions and making it impossible for anyone to lift their head.
They were on the verge of Ascension.
Unlike the fighting between other cultivators.
They had already set their sights on the heavenly competition.
Human world resources were insignificant to them.
Hong Luan was the supreme cultivator of the Central Continent, at the peak of Ascension.
She was well-known, a true figure of the times.
However, at that time.
The spiritual energy of the human world suddenly began to decline.
Lower-ranked cultivators might not feel it strongly.
But high-ranked cultivators could easily sense it.
In an attempt to understand the reason for the decline in human spiritual energy.
Hong Luan traveled across the entire world.
But she didn’t find an answer.
Later, a great cultivator who was skilled in the art of divination.
Sacrificed half his lifespan to deduce that the world was in turmoil, and the human world would face a great catastrophe.
As to what the catastrophe would be, he couldn’t predict.
This made Hong Luan feel uneasy.
Years later.
Hong Luan discovered that several of her friends who were about to ascend had mysteriously disappeared.
This puzzled her.
If they had really ascended, it would have caused a significant heavenly phenomenon.
She wouldn’t have missed it.
If they had died?
That didn’t make sense, though. Cultivators who could reach the peak of Ascension were all incredibly talented.
They must have had a way to preserve their lives.
How could they just perish?
So, Hong Luan sought out the supreme cultivators of the other four continents, to see if they had heard anything.
However.
The supreme cultivators of the other continents also reported that they had lost friends mysteriously.
After communicating, they all sensed something wrong.
They all began to investigate the cause.
Later, they discovered that several Taoist children appeared in the world, their power surpassing ordinary Ascension stage cultivators.
It was these Taoist children who were secretly hunting Ascension stage cultivators.
Hong Luan and the other supreme cultivators teamed up to capture one of the Taoist children.
They wanted to question why they were killing Ascension cultivators.
But these Taoist children were very strange.
They would rather die in battle, their souls destroyed, than surrender.
And after their deaths.
Their bodies would shatter into what seemed like pieces of stone.
Hong Luan couldn’t help but wonder.
Could it be that these Taoist children weren’t real humans?
After all, the Heavenly Dao absolutely does not allow beings above the Ascension realm to exist in the human world.
That’s why Ascension exists.
And the various signs of the Taoist children didn’t seem like something human cultivators would do.
Hong Luan couldn’t make sense of it.
Later, the supreme cultivators of the Southern Barbarian Continent’s demon race were also ambushed by the Taoist children.
But fortunately.
Hong Luan used a technique to feign death, taking them by surprise, and ultimately killed one.
But in the process, she discovered something.
These Taoist children were hunting Ascension cultivators to steal their luck.
When this theory emerged.
Everyone was shocked.
As human spiritual energy continued to decline.
Cultivators who were originally about to reach the Ascension stage were stuck in the Tribulation Transcendence stage.
If this trend continued.
Ascension would become increasingly difficult.
If the Taoist children killed all Ascension cultivators.
It would be like severing the path to Ascension for the human [N O V E L I G H T] world!
To prevent the Taoist children from running rampant.
Hong Luan and the other four continent supreme cultivators formed an alliance to support each other.
Together, they began hunting the mysterious Taoist children.
Upon hearing this, Ye Yu felt a sense of familiarity.
He tentatively asked, "The Guardians of the Continents?"
Hong Luan’s expression immediately became strange.
"Indeed, someone has called them that, but that was tens of thousands of years ago. How do you know about it?"
Ye Yu naturally couldn’t reveal the truth about the Demon Child of the True Demonic Realm.
He could only claim it was hearsay.
However.
From the information Hong Luan shared, it seemed that the mysterious Taoist children’s existence was quite ancient.
The decline in spiritual energy began tens of thousands of years ago.
And there definitely wasn’t just one of them.
Could it be that there were many more Taoist children back then?
As he thought about it, Ye Yu couldn’t help but frown slightly.
Hong Luan then continued to recount.
The title of "Guardians of the Continents" was known to very few.
No, to be more precise, the existence of these mysterious Taoist children was scarcely known.
Because their power was so terrifying.
Ordinary Ascension cultivators were no match for them.
To suddenly reveal this would only cause unnecessary panic among lower-level cultivators.
Hong Luan and the others believed.
Perhaps these mysterious Taoist children were the calamity and upheaval of the human world.
If they worked hard enough.
Killing all these Taoist children might bring an end to the calamity.
But in reality.
Time was running out.
When they finally realized what was happening.
Nearly all of the human world’s Ascension cultivators had already been slaughtered by these mysterious Taoist children.
This caused Hong Luan and the others to feel a sense of panic.
Such speed... was just too fast!
A hundred years later.
Hong Luan and the others confirmed that there were six of these mysterious Taoist children.
During this period.
They had killed four of them, and two Taoist children remained alive, though their whereabouts were unknown.
And due to the depletion of spiritual energy in the human world.
Not a single Ascension cultivator had appeared in the past hundred years.
It seemed that the path to Ascension for the human world was truly going to be severed.
Hong Luan and the other four Guardians of the Continents swore.
They would not ascend until the remaining two Taoist children were killed.
They had to eliminate this threat to the human world.
Years later.
The whereabouts of the remaining two Taoist children were still unknown.
The supreme cultivators of the North Desolate Continent received another report.
It stated that the rightful Demon Child of the Demon Realm would soon awaken, and they would seek to conquer the human world as their own.
