NOVEL SIMPLE Chapter 001 - Marrying A Saint
Eternal Great World, Canglan Domain, Great Xia Dynasty.
Ye Wushang never expected that he would receive such devastating news right after awakening his past life memories.
When Ye Wushang's father, Ye Batian, the current head of the Ye Family, led the clan's experts to explore a secret realm, they suffered a terrible disaster.
The entire elite of the family, including his two elder brothers, perished inside.
As a result, the overall strength of the family was greatly diminished, and they had to retreat and consolidate their territory.
As the legitimate third young master, who was originally a spoiled disciple, Ye Wushang had no choice but to take on the position of the family head in this critical situation.
Not only that, in order to prevent the family from being threatened by other clans, he had to marry a woman he had never even seen before.
"Wushang, I know you're not happy about it, but as the only bloodline of your generation, you must step up!" said the eldest elder, one of the three remaining elders of the family.
"Yue Rushuang may seem insignificant now, but she was once the strongest genius of the Yue Family, known as the Holy Maiden. Marrying her won't be a disadvantage to you!"
"Alright, I won't say much more. Prepare yourself well, and in three days, get ready to welcome the other party into our family!"
At this moment, Ye Wushang was still feeling frustrated. However, he also knew that now it was no longer his choice to make.
If the Ye Family didn't form an alliance with the Yue Family and leverage their power, the Ye Family would definitely not be able to hold on.
The Ye Family and the Yue Family were once known as two of the top 100 families in the Great Xia Dynasty during their peak.
The two major families had a good relationship and had multiple intermarriages in the past.
However, later on, a catastrophic crisis occurred, causing both families to suffer significant losses.
But relying on mutual support and perseverance, they managed to overcome it.
However, during that battle, the Ye Family paid a heavy price to save the Yue Family.
As a result, the Yue Family owed the Ye Family a great debt of gratitude.
However, as time passed, the Yue Family grew stronger and gained more fame in the Great Xia Dynasty.
On the other hand, the Ye Family was not as fortunate and could only maintain their current status, confined to a small region.
Therefore, although the Yue Family wanted to repay this great debt of gratitude multiple times, the Ye Family never asked for it.
Now, the Ye Family is facing an unprecedented crisis and has finally decided to call in this favor.
Ye Wushang also understands that there are many branches in the Ye Family, and the reason he took over as the family head is because his ancestors saved the Yue Family from life and death.
In other words, the Yue Family only recognizes Ye Wushang from the Ye Family.
Otherwise, considering the fact that Ye Wushang's father led the team that caused significant damage to the family's strength, he would never have inherited the position of family head.
After realizing this, Ye Wushang can only shake his head helplessly.
At the same time, he begins to ponder Yue Rushuang's past.
Yue Rushuang, a once astonishing genius.
In the Eternal Great World, due to the spiritual energy, humans generally mature early, and their physical development starts at the age of fourteen.
However, when Yue Rushuang first began her cultivation, she displayed a terrifying talent.
Within three months, she crossed the realms of Body Tempering and Qi Absorption, breaking through to the Dao Foundation realm.
Immediately after, before her fifteenth birthday, she broke through the Dao Foundation and entered the Essence Stabilization realm.
Following that, at the age of sixteen, she broke through to the Core Condensation realm, and by the age of seventeen, she reached the peak of the Core Condensation realm.
This terrifying talent shocked the entire Great Xia Dynasty, even causing nearby dynasties to be amazed.
The top power in the Canglan Domain, the Cangyuan Ancient City, even made a statement.
As long as Yue Rushuang breaks through to the Divine Sea realm, she can directly join the Cangyuan Ancient City as the Cangyuan Saintess.
When this news came out, the entire Great Xia was shaken.
Subsequently, countless people referred to Yue Rushuang as the quasi-saintess when addressing her, and some even directly called her the saintess.
Because in their eyes, it was almost a certainty that Yue Rushuang would break through and become a saintess.
However, just as everyone was preparing to see when Yue Rushuang would break through to the Divine Sea realm, fate played a huge joke on her.
Yue Rushuang's breakthrough failed, and her cultivation regressed by two realms, returning to the Dao Foundation realm.
This scene shocked the entire Yue Family.
The head of the Yue Family refused to believe it and continued to provide a large amount of resources.
Yue Rushuang also made several attempts, but all ended in failure.
Overnight, rumors spread throughout the entire Great Xia that the genius had become useless.
And Yue Rushuang went from being a revered saintess to an object of ridicule by everyone.
Even the experts of the Yue Family searched through countless ancient books but could not find the reason.
There have been strong assertions that Yue Rushuang will never be able to break through the Divine Sea realm in this lifetime.
Thinking about Yue Rushuang's past, Ye Wushang couldn't help but sigh, feeling sorry for her.
In this world, the strong are respected, and the cultivation realms are like an insurmountable chasm.
Body Tempering, Qi Absorption, Dao Foundation, Essence Stabilization, Core Condensation, Divine Sea, Celestial Phenomenon, Violet Palace, Law Manifestation, Grotto-Heaven, Galaxy, Yin and Yang, Spirit Ascension.
Each level is particularly strict.
In the Great Xia Dynasty, only those in the Divine Sea realm can be called master-level experts.
The Celestial Phenomenon realm is the grandmaster level. The previous head of the Ye Family was at this realm.
Only those in the Violet Palace realm can be considered as great power. The Yue Family has more than one great power expert in the Violet Palace realm, giving them significant influence throughout Great Xia.
As for the Law Manifestation realm, it is said that only a few old monsters in the royal family of Great Xia have reached this realm.
As for the titled marquis-level experts in the Grotto-Heaven Realm, only the founding emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty had reached that level.
It must be unpleasant for a genius to suddenly fall into the mortal world.
Suddenly, Ye Wushang's heart skipped a beat as he remembered a book from his previous life.
A thought popped into his mind.
Could this Yue Rushuang be following the script of the Flame Emperor?
If that's the case, marrying her would be a huge gain.
However, he wasn't sure if that was really the case.
